Chapter 5 Red Embroidered Shoes

Du Da quickly withdrew his hand, Zhang Meng had already started to break Du Da's fingers hard, Du Da cried out in pain: "Let me go, ah..."

Uncle Wu took Zhang Meng's arm: "Zhang Meng, if you do this again, I'll call your mother and see how she can deal with you if she knows!"

When Zhang Meng heard that Uncle Wu said he was looking for his mother to express his anger, he snorted coldly: "Hmph!" Let go of Du Da's hand, Du Da rubbed his red index finger and listened to Uncle Wu: "Zhang Meng has something to say, please speak up." , we are all from the same village, it is not right for you to be violent like this."

What Uncle Wu said earlier was indeed accusing Zhang Meng of being like Du Jie and Du Jie, but then Uncle Wu said: "Du Da, we all know that your family is not rich recently and may not be able to afford Du Jie to go to suppress demons." But if you think about Du Jie being possessed by a ghost, can he survive in the end? That ghost, he must be the first to kill Du Jie, so the most urgent thing is to take Du Jie to the city today The sooner the demon exorcises the ghost, the sooner it will be better for Du Jie!"

Du Da frowned and looked at Du Jie who had been standing stupidly without speaking. Du Jie blinked his big eyes and looked at Du Da blankly. His eyes were unfamiliar, as if he didn't know Du Da at all. .

Du Da took a deep breath and thought to himself that something should not happen to his second brother's only blood. Du Da cupped his hands and bent over, and said to all the villagers present who had been surrounding him and Du Jie: "My family really can't get out of it recently. The extra money will be given to Du Jie to go to the town of demons to drive out ghosts, let's see who will lend me some money first, and I will pay it back when I have it in the future."

All the villagers present looked at me, and I looked at you, and you didn't say anything and wanted to borrow money.

In the end, Uncle Wu sighed and stood up and said: "Hey! I know that everyone has already spent a lot of money because of the ghost incident last time. Now it is a bit difficult for everyone to take out the money, but everyone knows the situation of everyone. , Now I really can’t spend any extra money to drive away ghosts for Du Jie, how about this! If you put together a hundred coins each, you can get five taels of silver! Everyone Du still has a piece of fertile land for him to write a proof , Press out the good land first, and if the money is not paid by then, it will be almost enough to sell the good land, is my proposal okay?"

Du Da gritted his teeth, then looked at Du Jie and nodded: "Okay, just listen to Uncle."

Uncle Wu saw that Du Da agreed and said to the villagers who were still silent: "Okay! Don't think about it, go home and get the money, don't you all want Du Da to take Du Jie to the town?" Monster, hurry up!" Uncle Wu turned around and went home after finishing speaking, and the rest of the villagers also dispersed and went home to get the money.

Before leaving, Zhang Meng looked at Du Jie gloatingly and said, "Haha! You are a villain! You destroyed your own family, and now you are going to destroy your uncle's family."

Du Jie glanced at Zhang Meng and didn't speak. In fact, he had already seen that his uncle, who had suffered a loss, was deeply moved. He hadn't felt family affection for a long time. It was like a fire had rekindled in his heart. At that moment, Du Jie made a decision. Since he has become the master of this body also called Du Jie, he must take responsibility. As an uncle, he will definitely respect him.

Zhang Meng triumphantly continued to talk about Du Jie: "The evil spirit deserves to be raised without parents since childhood!"

Zhang Meng's words touched the thorn in Du Jie's heart.

Du Jie thought quickly and came up with an idea. Du Jie squinted his eyes and lowered his head slightly, kept a gloomy look and said in a spy voice: "I will go to you at night and kill you, hahahahahahaha."

Zhang Meng was taken aback and hurriedly said in fear, "You ghost, come to me, and I'll let Master Huang get rid of you." After speaking, Zhang Meng ran away quickly, and while running, he fell a somersault because of nervousness. Then continue to stand up and run.

When Zhang Meng ran far away, Du Jie immediately returned to his normal appearance and voice and said: "Idiot, I'm scaring you, hum!"

Du Da looked at Du Jie nervously and said, "You, don't hurt others and don't hurt Du Jie. If you have any unfulfilled wishes, just say so, and I will help you as much as I can."

Du Jie looked at Du Dazheng's eyes and opened his mouth, not knowing how to explain it. In the end, Du Jie sighed and chose to remain silent, mainly because he didn't know whether he was possessed by a ghost or not.

Du Da couldn't wait for Du Jie's answer, and he waited worriedly for the villagers to come back with their money. After more than ten minutes, all the villagers who left came back with their money. Except for Zhang Meng, there was no one. Uncle Wu roared angrily. : "Don't wait for Zhang Meng, this kid is not serious, the time is getting late, you guys go quickly."

Du Da nodded, then bowed his hands and said, "Du Da thanked all the villagers here, and I'll take Du Jie to the demon town first."

After saying hello to the villagers and Uncle Wu, Du Da found a rope and tied it around Du Jie's waist to pull Du Jie away, fearing that Du Jie would not go with him.

When we arrived at the entrance of the village, we just caught up with the last ox cart to Licheng. There were already several people on the ox cart who were going to Licheng from other villages.

The driver of the bullock cart was a big man with a charitable face. He looked at Du Da in surprise and said, "Hey! You just came back from Licheng not long ago."

Du Da pulled Du Jie into the bullock cart and said, "something happened, I have to go again."

The burly man driving the ox cart looked at the rope around Du Jie's waist in a strange way, and nodded without asking, "Well, it's ten cents for two people."

After Du University handed over the ten papers, the ox cart continued to go. Slowly, Du Jie relaxed, and physical fatigue and hunger appeared. Two hours later, the ox cart stopped at the gate of Licheng City.

After getting out of the bullock cart, Du Da pulled the rope and led Du Jie into Licheng. The people who came in and out of the tall city gate, Du Jie looked around at everything in Licheng like a curious baby.

Du Jie found that although the houses in Licheng were ancient houses, they seemed a little different. The gates of the rich people's houses were not stone lions, but something similar to monkeys. Where have I seen it? There are also people on the street and street vendors with a yellow cloth tied to their arms, and even the arms of children running and playing in the street are tied with a yellow cloth.

When passing by the steamed stuffed bun stall at the corner, the smell made Du Jie feel all his hunger. Du Jie swallowed, his stomach growled and he stood in front of the steamed stuffed bun stall at the corner and did not leave.

Du Da looked at the steamed stuffed bun stall and Du Jie who didn't leave at all, and sneaked around for the money bag, which was not a big bag. Just as he was about to pull the rope to drag Du Jie away, he heard Du Jie's stomach growling.

Du Da gritted his teeth and took Du Jie to the empty seat at the steamed stuffed bun stand, and said to the old man who was making steamed stuffed buns, "Uncle, here are ten drawers of buns."

The old man quickly wiped his hands and replied: "Okay!" When he saw Du Da and Du Jie, the uncle was puzzled and kindly reminded Du Da: "Big brother, I have six big buns in this drawer." Well, you two will be full with just three drawers."

Du Da looked at Du Jie, who was swallowing his saliva, and said to the old man, "Our boy is very good at eating. These ten drawers of buns are for him. Don't worry, uncle, he will be able to finish them."

Of course Du Jie heard what Du Da said. The boss with an open mouth twitched his face. He didn't expect that Du Jie was such a fool. Serve it to you while eating."

Du Da nodded to the old man and pushed the steamed stuffed bun in front of Du Jie and said, "Ajie, eat it. Don't be as anxious as you were when you ate steamed stuffed stuffed bun this time. Be careful it's hot."

Du Jie's heart was burning while eating the hot buns. Du Da really treated him well. This kind of family affection made Du Jie feel that he had a stronger sense of belonging to this place than in the modern world.

Just when Du Jie buried his head in eating the second drawer of steamed buns, he suddenly smelled a pungent bloody smell. This smell was like the smell of blood, mixed with musty smell.

Du Jie put down the half-eaten bun in his hand, raised his head and sniffed it hard with his nose, wondering if it would have such a bloody and foul smell.

Du Da saw that Du Jie stopped eating suddenly and asked: "Why don't you eat?

Before the words fell, Du Jie yelled at a booth selling sachets next to him as if he had seen something terrifying: "My God! Her shoes, her shoes are bleeding , cough cough cough."

Because Du Jie was too excited to swallow the buns in his mouth, he choked directly. Du Jie patted his chest while pointing to a woman who was buying a sachet: "Her shoes are bleeding. There was blood all over the ground."

The people around and Du mostly looked at the woman Du Jie pointed at. The woman looked ordinary and dressed very plainly, but her shoes were exceptionally beautiful. They were a pair of embroidered shoes with big red sides. These embroidered shoes were particularly eye-catching. , feeling very bright and beautiful, of course the woman also heard Du Jie's exclamation, and looked at her shoes in fear, but it turned out that the shoes were not clean and tidy at all.

The woman turned to Du Jie angrily: "Then you are a lunatic! Why is there blood when you wear a pair of red shoes?"

Du Jie stared at the shoe for a few more times before realizing that the shoe seemed to have bitten off the woman's hamstrings. There was only a layer of skin attached to the bone and there were maggots wriggling. Du Jie yelled excitedly. He said: "Can't you see it?!" The people around whispered that Du Jie had a problem with his mind, but there was nothing.

Du Jie looked at him with strange eyes from the people around him, and wanted to say something to prove it excitedly, so Du Da abruptly dragged Du Jie to sit down: "Ajie, stop shouting, her shoes are fine , Are you dazzled, you see that everyone around you is talking about you, if you tell the patrolling military master later that it is not good for us to make trouble on the street, please sit down first."

Du Jie sat down with his legs trembling and his hands trembling, and he was still thinking silently, "Amitabha Buddha bless you, if there are ghosts, please don't come to me."

It may be that what Du Jie said made the woman angry. The woman walked to Du Jie and wanted to argue with Du Jie. The stench emitted by the woman's shoes was too strong, like the smell of rotting meat. Du Jie couldn't stand it. He covered his mouth and retched a few times.

Seeing Du Jie's retching and speaking, the woman's voice became louder, and she asked Du Jie to apologize, or else she would not even think about leaving. Her husband is a very strong butcher, and when the woman was yelling, there were already crowds around There were many spectators, and suddenly a voice came from the crowd: "This little brother is right, there is indeed something wrong with your shoes!"
