The 324th Chapter Is the Quality Recognized by the Ghosts (3)

Chen Ge climbed out of the tunnel and looked around.

There are no windows in the house, and there are a few poultry that have just died not far from the tunnel entrance.

"She uses the blood of poultry? Can this fool the Specter?"

The baby's cry could be vaguely heard in his ears, and Chen Ge walked up the stairs to the second floor.

It can be clearly seen that this is a woman's room. There are simple furniture in the room. The difference from other houses is that there is no coffin in this room, but a wooden bed.

The thick bed curtain was opened, and several bamboo baskets were placed side by side on the wooden bed, and each baby in the basket had a blade of grass on its mouth.

The blade of grass seemed to have a calming effect. Although several babies left their parents, they didn't cry too much.

"Every time this woman surnamed Zhu takes her child away, does she actually want to protect the child?"

Soon Chen Ge found a notebook under the pillow of the bed. After opening it, a personal name and address were recorded on it.

The people who write these things may know only a limited number of words, and many places are replaced by symbols.

"The woman surnamed Zhu outside looks like she's only in her thirties or forties, but this book is yellow and shabby, and it feels like it should be from many years ago." Chen Ge held the book, but he really couldn't understand the words on it. Most of the Chinese characters are unrecognizable: "The address is very vague, but a few names can be distinguished. Could they be the rescued children?"

"You're right, they are all the children I sent out." An old lady's voice suddenly came from behind, and Chen Ge turned around immediately with the repeater.

"It's me who should be afraid, right? Or do you think I, the old guy with half of my foot buried in the coffin, can threaten you?"

It seemed to be due to the lack of teeth. The voice sounded very strange. Singer Chen took the repeater and walked into the house, and saw a severely hunchbacked and wrinkled old lady in the booth on the second floor.

She was lying on the wooden bed in the compartment, her legs were atrophied, and only her head and one arm could barely move.

"Who are you?" The old man looked very old, and Chen Ge couldn't help but call him "you".

The old man looked at Chen Ge, and she grinned: "I am a person who is favored by Specter."

Hear this sentence,

There was a buzzing sound in Chen Ge's head, the word the old man said was all too familiar to him!

"You child makes me feel very kind, you should have dealt with them too." The old people said they were naturally ghosts.

"Yes, I have not only dealt with them, but also built a home for them."

"Then you are much stronger than me." The old man tried his best to express his kindness: "Sit down, I didn't hear the door slamming, you should have run in from the tunnel of the ancestral hall, I guess you were going to take advantage of the Sacrificial activities to secretly take the baby away?"

"Well, I have this plan." Chen Ge didn't approach the old man, but just put down the repeater in his hand.

"As I thought, people who can be favored by ghosts must have qualities that even ghosts recognize." The old man's voice was very flat, but it made people feel comfortable listening.

"Quality recognized by Specter?"

"kindness."

The old man nodded laboriously, and under Chen Ge's questioning, she told the whole story of what happened that year.

It's basically the same as what A Qing said, the difference is that the ghost in the old man's mouth is not an unrestrained killing and revenge, there seems to be a trace of residual emotion.

The old man had rescued the female ghost three times, and the female ghost promised to help the old man to do three things that were not excessive.

Usually, it also treats the old man specially. For example, it never enters the old man's house. When other evil spirits appear in the village, as long as they threaten the life of the old man, the female ghost will appear to kill him.

"She blood-washed the village, and all the perpetrators were spared. I can understand all of this, and I even feel very happy. But what happened later made me feel that something was wrong." There was a red door in the house where she lived, and only she can open the door."

"After the bloodbathed the village, she let go of her obsession and was about to leave. Before leaving, she wanted to enter the door to take a look, but there was a problem with that."

"After she came out of the door again, she was full of hatred, her eyes were full of viciousness, and she completely changed into another person."

"I don't know what she encountered in the door, I only know that she is full of malice towards everything. She is going to imprison the offspring of the perpetrators here, so that they can only be monsters for life, and even all normal people are in her opinion. Unforgivable."

There was a trace of hidden deep pain in the old man's voice: "I don't have the ability to stop her. I can only use my own methods to save some innocent children when she is crazy."

"As you can see today, she wakes up once a year and enters the world behind the door. If these children are placed elsewhere, she will kill them easily, and only here can they be safe."

"Get over it, as long as you get through this night, she will fall asleep again when she comes out of the door."

The old man didn't know what was in the world behind the door. She only knew that the female ghost would go to the world inside the door at this time of year.

"Then why don't you run away? All leave the village." Chen Ge said.

"Everyone who has drank well water can't escape and will be haunted by her for life. That's why I only save newborn babies."

"Entanglement for life? But I heard that more than ten years ago, some people in your village escaped, and they didn't have any accidents." Chen Ge was talking about Jiang Ling's father and the others.

"It was an accident. One day more than ten years ago, after she entered the door, she didn't come back that night."

"People in the village spent a month in fear and found that she still hadn't come back. Some people thought she might have died on the other side of the door."

"There were two voices in the village at that time, one was to stay in the mountain village with peace of mind, and the other was to take the opportunity to escape."

"Later, some people with no obvious physical deformities escaped secretly, and she came back on the third day after they escaped."

"There are my descendants among those who escaped. I begged her to let them go. It took two favors to keep them safe for 20 years."

The old man's cough was getting worse and worse, Chen Ge didn't dare to ask any more questions, he had already learned enough from the old man.

"Grandma, you have a good rest. I won't disturb you. I will take one of those children. This is an agreement between me and someone in your village."

Chen Ge turned around and was about to go to the bed to look for A Qing's child. Before taking a few steps, the old man's voice came from behind him: "Actually, I asked you to come over for another matter."

"Is it related to the female ghost who jumped in?" Chen Ge had already found the baby with copper coins hanging from his neck, which looked very cute.

The old man shook his head and stared at Chen Ge's face: "Have you noticed that your body temperature is slowly decreasing?"
