Where are the monsters?

Chapter 19 Whose New Clothes 4

The first day of October in [-] was on November [-]th of the Gregorian calendar. It was a Saturday, and Mu Feng had only one class in the morning. Since he decided to transfer to the Department of Archeology, he spent more time in The main reason for the Remaining Person's Zhai is that the environment there is better than that of the library, and Ying Ni's collection of books in this area is more abundant than that of the library.

Mu Feng got a general idea of ​​what happened on the Shichahai Ice Lake yesterday.According to Qu Bin, when they were skating this week, his friend Li Tao met Zhang Ruru. The reason for their acquaintance was when Dai Jie pestered Zhang Ruru on the first day, and Li Tao helped to say something.

Dai Jie fell in love with Zhang Ruru, and has been pestering her ever since. When Zhang Ruru came to Shichahai to skate, Dai Jie also chased after her to prevent her from making new friends.When Li Tao saw it that day, he stepped forward and said something bluntly. Zhang Ruru took advantage of the situation and pretended that she already had someone she liked, which was Li Tao, and told Dai Jie not to keep chasing her.

This made Dai Jie hold a grudge, and said that he wanted to take revenge on them, which happened yesterday that Dai Jie brought a group of younger brothers to come to the door.I heard that Dai Jie's family has little power in the capital.

Even so, Qu Bin reassured Mu Feng that there shouldn't be any major problems. There are gang fights everywhere, but this year's crackdown is very strong. In the summer, a few typical people were caught, and a group of high-ranking officials also went in. up.Dai Jie didn't have the courage to stand up to the wind and commit crimes, and he didn't dare to magnify this trivial matter, not to mention that they basically stayed in the school. It is really courageous to rush to the capital university to beat talents these days.

Instead, it is a wooden seal, because you have to be careful because you have to go out to work.After all, Dai Jie also saw the wooden seal yesterday, and this matter has nothing to do with him at all, but who knows if Dai Jie will implicate innocent people.

Shopkeeper Zhang listened to Mu Feng talking about yesterday's events, and he picked up Dai Jie's name in his mind. He really didn't remember that person who didn't even have a memorial tablet, so he didn't have to worry about it at all.

"There is never a moment in this capital that can really stop. It's hard not to fight, and some old things happened a few years ago. Finally, after this strange wind has passed, now those little boys are here to mess around again, jealous for the sake of fighting the wind. If you dare to speak out and ask for a leg. This is breaking the rules! If they were put in a few decades ago, they would dare to kill devils! They will only make trouble in the nest. However, Xiaomu, you should also learn some real skills , I often walk by the river, how can I not get my shoes wet. When my fists are hardened, I am not afraid of other people's hands."

"That's good, can the shopkeeper and the masters in this field introduce me?" Mu Feng felt that since he left the village at the foot of Huashan Mountain, his life had been rushing in an uncontrollable direction, and he had to learn. There are more and more things, and most of them are things I never thought of.Even if shopkeeper Zhang said that Mu Feng should learn how to kill people quickly, accurately and ruthlessly, just to prevent being killed, Mu Feng would be surprised but not unacceptable.

Shopkeeper Zhang nodded, this matter is on him. "I remember there was an old guy, wait for me to ask, don't you think about being his disciple, it's okay to teach you something casually. But fighting is three-thirds indoors and seven-tenths outdoors. The main thing is that you must If you have on-the-spot experience, then your fists will not be unfamiliar. If you want to say that you have been a master of self-cultivation, unless you have practiced to the level of Zhang Sanfeng."

"The shopkeeper also reads martial arts novels?" Of course Mu Feng himself had read Mr. Jin's books, and he was still watching the videotapes from Hong Kong Island during this time.Although the Yi Ren Zhai is an ancient building, Ying Ni does not reject modern high-tech, and equipped the store with DVD players and other equipment.There are no programs from Hong Kong, Taiwan or foreign countries in mainland China, but Ying Ni got those video tapes back, and there are seven or eight editions of Qiu Guan's Yi Tian Shou Long Ji in it.

Shopkeeper Zhang certainly reads some casual books, and those who deal in antiques like them are also divided into three or six grades.Some are dedicated to making imitations to deceive people, but they are also very good at talking; some have real talents and practical learning, and the books in their stomachs are no less than those of ordinary school history teachers.Shopkeeper Zhang belongs to the category that is particularly fond of folklore, and martial arts novels are considered a pastime.

"Sometimes I also think, maybe there really are people who can fly to the sky and escape from the earth. It's just that because of the age, these are lost, or there may be some reclusive masters. What's wrong with me in this life I haven’t seen it before, so it’s not strange if there is one more thing. You are still young, and you will understand it gradually. I never read Three Kingdoms, and I never read Journey to the West. In fact, there are more strange things in the world than in Journey to the West. Take today Speaking of which, when I was young, I saw someone burn the wrong clothes..."

Mu Feng also wanted shopkeeper Zhang to say one or two strange things, when Ying Ni came.

Ying Ni arrived a bit late today, and he seemed to smell like incense when he came.Mu Feng thought of the way he came by bike and saw many people burning paper money. Today is the Cold Clothes Festival. According to the custom, every household has to sacrifice ancestors. It seems that although the boss is away from home, he still remembers this incident.

"Old Zhang, go back early today, don't delay the ancestor worship." Ying Ni flicked the ashes on his body, the shopkeeper Zhang was almost sixty, and the ancestor worship at home had to wait for him to arrive.

The shopkeeper Zhang could only stop talking halfway, who would not be happy to go home earlier, so he left first.

Only Yingshen and Mufeng were left in the store, and Yingshen simply hung a sign at the door saying that it was temporarily closed and would knock on the door in case of emergency.

"Today's Winter Clothes Festival, people generally don't come out to buy antiques on this day." The reason behind this is obvious. Whoever buys antiques at this time, God knows if they will buy more. What.

Mu Feng has already read books such as the Encyclopedia of Folk Customs, and knows a little about such taboos.However, Mu Feng didn't want to be caught studying again as soon as he saw Ying Ni, so he picked a topic that fit the occasion. "When I was still at home, Mu Jianguo was not very good at burning paper money on this day. People in the village said why he didn't go to worship grandma. I would secretly go to grandma's tomb to pay homage to grandma, but I couldn't buy it. Light a candle."

Mu Jianguo is Mu Feng's father.Ying Ni already knew that Mu Feng's father was not a reliable person, and today he was more impressed. This man didn't even go to worship his own mother, which is really unfilial.

"If you want to buy some sacrifices, there is a candle shop on the street behind this alley. Although you can't go to the grave, it's a kind of heart to burn some here."

Mu Feng obviously planned this way too. In the past, he didn't know about ghosts and gods, and he didn't believe that there was a world beyond the eyes of the living after death. Now that he has glimpsed a bizarre world, he still needs to maintain some awe.

"I also want to burn some for my mother. During the Cold Clothes Festival, paper clothes are burned for the dead. This is the first time I burn paper clothes."

Here, Ying Ni heard Mu Feng mention his mother for the first time, so he was a little curious.Although I don't know why people live in this world, some people will be exposed to strange things, while some people will never encounter them in their entire lives. This may be related to luck, but it may be related to blood.

It is easier to investigate Mu Feng's father's side. The Mu family has always lived at the foot of Huashan Mountain, which can be traced back to the Ming Dynasty. There is nothing special about it. However, Mu Feng's mother passed away when she was young, and there is very little news about her.

It is not easy to investigate a person's life experience, especially in the past few decades that Huaguo has gone through wars, national changes and other changes.Mufeng's mother passed away in the early years of the Cultural Revolution, and the clues here are even more difficult to find.Although, Mu Feng's mother's natal family looks very ordinary, and Mu Feng's two uncles are just ordinary people.

"It's the first time I've heard you talk about your mother. Haven't you been to her cemetery?"

Ying Ni asked tentatively, if Mu Feng secretly went to visit his grandma's grave, why didn't he mention his mother?

**

Dai Jie and his group gathered together, Dai Jie didn't want to let go of Zhang Ruru who provoked him.

"Boss, are we really going to trouble Zhang Ruru today?" A younger brother looked at Dai Jie's ugly face. It wasn't that they were timid, but that they were really cracking down this year, and it was the document issued by the top.

Dai Jie took a puff of his cigarette and blew out the face of the younger brother who asked the question just now, "If you don't dare to do it, you can leave now. Why don't you just go and squat inside for a few days to scare you. Everyone is burning paper money today, and I have sent Be kind, don't let two more people be burned today next year. Zhang Ruru, that bitch, wants to leave me if she dumps me, don't even think about it. She dared to accept the clothes I gave her before, but she will suffer now This meal. Let’s talk about whether you dare to go or not.”

"You must dare! Whoever doesn't go is a bastard tortoise." When it came to this point, the younger brothers of course also responded.Young and frivolous, they really don't think it's anything to go in for a few days.

"Okay, let's gather in front of the big pagoda tree tonight."

It's not that Dai Jie doesn't want to copy the guy and rush over there now, it's just that today's sacrifice, the family said that if he doesn't go back, he will look good to him.Cleaning up Zhang Ruru an hour or two later will not delay.

Dai Jie usually disobeyed his family, but he dared not disobey when his parents were honest and honest.

When Mu Feng and Ying Ni arrived at the incense candle shop, they only saw that the incense candle shop was doing well around the ghost festival.

Mu Feng looked at the paper clothes sold here, and there were different colors, except for the fiery red.
