Why is my master always lost and swollen? !
Chapter 8 The Ghost Story Collector
"...So, that's what happened."
After Mr. Baohe finished speaking, he stroked his long hair.Liu Zian calmed down and looked around.If you look carefully, you might be able to find it too.But so far, I haven't seen Mr.'s fallen hair.
"What happened after that? What happened?"
"Not very good. I couldn't bring the body back, so I buried him locally. At that time, all I could think about was how to explain to his family. However, as far as the final result is concerned, this young man has no family. gone."
Liu Zian folded his arms playfully.
"I said sir, did what you said really happen?"
"You suspect that I made it up?"
"You won't make up this weird story on purpose to scare me, will you?"
"During this trip, I have indeed been collecting ghost stories, but this matter is definitely not fabricated. If you don't believe me, you can investigate it. Go to the hot spring area and ask the owner of the hotel. He should still remember. At that time he saw The young man's body turned pale with fright. Then again, what good is it for me to scare you? It's not just adding nausea to myself."
"It's disgusting. But it's probably interesting to see other people's fears, right? Those wonderful horror stories, passed on by word of mouth, will be passed down forever. Especially the stories I made up, if they can be spread in this way It seems quite interesting. Mister is probably looking forward to me going to places like taverns and teahouses, and spreading the story just now to everyone, right?"
"Even if you don't spread the word, this story has already been spread around there. People who travel there will probably bring back a story of 'youth brutally murdered by hair'."
"If this happened, it would be a pity. Speaking of which, I never died when I traveled with you before, which is incredible."
"This time it was just an accident!" Mr. Baohe argued.
Liu Zian looked at Mr. Baohe's slightly flushed face, and thought to himself: Mr. really looks good, no wonder the young man was so fascinated that he lost his life.It's just that I can't say this to my husband, otherwise my husband will think I'm playing tricks on him.
"Didn't you get lost on the way back, sir?"
"Of course I got lost."
"Please don't speak so confidently, it's time for you to reflect on yourself."
"I really suffered a lot. I lost my way several times a day, and I almost couldn't get back. I'll talk to you about it later. After all, it's quite lonely to be lost alone. I think traveling is still You need someone to accompany you. When you get lost, seeing the panicked appearance of the accompanying person, you will calm down inexplicably."
"You also stand on the standpoint of the entourage, think about it for others, okay?"
"Talking about the story about the hair just now... Actually, there is a follow-up. After I buried the young man, I tried to find the village with the mysterious hot spring that we strayed into, but I couldn't find it..."
"Isn't that a common thing?"
"No, this time is different. The road has never gone wrong, and I have encountered mountains and bamboo forests, but there are no people at the foot of the mountains, and there is no lingering hot spring smell. Although the fields are barren, there is plowing between the borders. Later, I asked the traveling merchants and learned that there was indeed a village in this place, but many years ago, due to landslides, all the farm houses were knocked down and collapsed.”
"But didn't you visit that village not long ago?"
"That's right. Later, when I looked at the mountain again, I realized that the outline in my memory was somewhat different. There was a mudslide, and the hot spring seemed to be destroyed. The young man and I arrived at the ghost village in the legend."
"That's why the hot springs there can see the dead at night...the hair combs picked up there will bring death to people..."
"No. Don't forget that the young man told me all of this."
Mr. Baohe stroked his chin, seemingly in deep thought.
"Then, in your opinion, what is going on?"
"When I was looking for burial places for young people in the local area, I heard that not long ago someone was buying women's long hair."
"what?"
"I think the matter of combing the hair may be fabricated by the young man himself... Probably he wanted to lay the foundation for such a period first, and then associate this matter with his being entangled in his hair."
"Then, what is the comb that was burned... Didn't you watch him burn the comb with your own eyes? An old semi-circular hair comb..."
"That hairbrush must have been prepared by him a long time ago. I investigated and found that the hairbrush belonged to his mother... The hair in the room must have been scattered by himself. He hid it in the palm of his hand beforehand, and then , stuffed it into his eyes for a while, and sprinkled it in the hot spring for a while... His death should be regarded as suicide... Did he use the long hair he bought to cover his mouth? It's really cruel to attack yourself... "
"Why did he do this?" Liu Zian felt that Mr. Baohe's speculation was simply insane.
"How would I know? Oh no, I can vaguely guess... No, I still can't understand it, so let's just pretend I don't know. Maybe one day, his death will become a wonderful ghost story, for People know it. Is this probably his wish?"
After Mr. Baohe finished speaking, he took out a somewhat dirty diary from his pocket, which was the one he always carried with him when he traveled.
"This, maybe it can help you pass some time."
Putting down the diary, Mr. Baohe got up and left. The long-haired figure looked like a woman.
After Mr. Baohe left, Liu Zian picked up the diary and flipped through it casually.It was full of horror stories I heard during the trip, article after article.Although less than a hundred, but also a considerable number.Because it is in the form of records, the writing is quite concise, but it has a more dignified atmosphere.
After reading for a while, Liu Zian found a long hair between the pages, which was dull and dull, as if it had been pulled from a corpse, which made people feel a little apprehensive.
Liu Zian gently picked it up with his fingertips and threw it out of the house.At this time, a gust of wind blew, and one end of the long hair fluttered up like a snake with its head held high.Long black thread-like hair, as if alive, stuck to the back of Liu Zian's hand.Liu Zian shook his hands hastily, but the itchy, scalp-numbing sensation lingered for a long time.Like a woman, a woman who clings to her, shaking her head, unwilling to let go.That hair, spiky and spiky, was trying to climb up along Liu Zian's arm, as if it planned to climb all the way to his face.
The moment it was about to get into his sleeve, Liu Zian pinched it with his other hand and decisively tore it off the skin.At this moment, it seemed to have given up its mind, and flew along the wind to nowhere.What exactly is going on?Liu Zian told himself that it must be because of the wind that it seemed to have life, that's all.
"Young master, young master... The uncle is back, and he brought a girl... Go and have a look!" A servant hurriedly walked in and said with a smile.
"Big brother is back? Where is it?" Liu Zian was a little unhappy because the boy interrupted his thoughts. Hearing that the big brother was back, he immediately forgot his emotions just now and asked in surprise.
It's no wonder that Liu Zian was brought up by his elder brother when he was a child, and the two brothers have the best relationship.Later, the eldest brother opened an escort agency and was away from home all year round. Liu Zian often ran around with Mr. Baohe.
"Look at me, I'm so happy that I'm so silly. My uncle is now..."
Before the boy finished speaking, there was a burst of bold laughter from the door.
"You don't need to look for it, brother is here to see you."
The voice of the visitor was loud and full of confidence.It really is big brother!
"Brother..." Liu Zian couldn't help but greet him.The eldest brother of the Liu family supported his shoulders, looked him up and down, and found that his younger brother, besides being a little depressed, was a little fatter than when we met last time, and his complexion was not bad. His heart that had been hanging all the way finally fell back. In the same place, but still asked with concern: "Little brother, a letter from home said that you were sick a while ago, are you feeling better now? Eldest brother is a rough man, not as educated as your second and third brothers, he knows how to treat you." You recuperate. But the eldest brother heard that Ganoderma lucidum is a good thing, and eating it can strengthen your health even if you are not sick, so this time I specially ordered a few on the way back, and I plan to ask the kitchen to make soup for you..."
Listening to what his elder brother said, Liu Zian seemed to have returned to his childhood, and his eye circles couldn't help turning a little red.But in order not to worry the eldest brother, Liu Zian decided to change the subject, so he said: "Brother, I heard that you brought a girl with you this time. Why, you finally got the hang of it, and you plan to find a stepmother for my nephew and niece?"
Liu Zian originally mentioned it so casually, but he didn't expect Big Brother Liu to blush with embarrassment and keep giggling.Really tempted?Liu Zian was a little surprised.You must know that my eldest brother has always been not very interested in the affairs of men and women, and he only likes to wield knives and sticks on weekdays.The last sister-in-law had been married for many years and had not been able to conceive a son and a half daughter. After asking, she found out that the number of times she and her eldest brother had intercourse over the years was only a handful.Liu Zian can still recall his father's face at that time.Later, under the supervision of everyone, the last sister-in-law finally became pregnant, and it was still twins.But because it was the first child and there were two more, the sister-in-law couldn't make it through in the end, and left soon after giving birth.Although the eldest brother also said that he would marry another to fill in the house, he has not actually acted until today... I don't know what kind of woman can make the elm-like elder brother tempted?Liu Zian became very interested in the woman brought by his elder brother.
"Brother, what does that girl look like? You can learn from me." Liu Zian couldn't help teasing his brother when he saw his stupid expression on the way to the main hall.
"What can it look like? Could it be that there are two heads and four eyes? You can go and see for yourself, you will know when you meet."
In the main hall, after greeting his parents, Liu Zian saw the girl brought back by his elder brother at a glance.So refreshing, so beautiful, dressed in moon-white shorts and trousers, with a pair of black cloth shoes on the soles of her feet, a head of black oily hair loosely pulled into a bun, with a delicate comb pinned to it, and a pair of white hair the size of almonds. The earrings were just exposed outside the hair feet, and the fair oval face and clear eyes had a completely different sense of beauty compared with Mr. Baohe.
Liu Zian felt that he was a little ridiculous. How could he compare his sister-in-law-to-be with a gentleman who was a man? It was really outrageous.
"Miss, where are you from? Is there anyone else at home?" Mother Liu took the girl's hand and asked softly, she seemed to have a good impression of her.
"There is no one else at home." The girl replied with lowered eyes.
"Oh, what a poor child. Then where is your home?" Mother Liu continued to ask.
"In...in...far away." The girl mumbled, her head lowered.
Mother Liu frowned slightly, and ordered the servant girl to take the girl down to rest.When the person walked away, he picked up the tea bowl at hand, took a sip of tea, and said to Liu's father: "This girl looks good, and she seems to have a good personality. Let's be honest, shouldn't you sneak out by yourself?"
Father Liu frowned when he heard this, and asked the eldest brother, "Boss, where did you meet this girl? Do you know her origin?"
Brother Liu rubbed his nose in embarrassment, and replied in a low voice: "The sons and daughters of the Jianghu, who would grab someone to ask where they came from?"
Father Liu and mother Liu sighed and shook their heads.Obviously, they couldn't agree with Brother Liu's approach.Brother Liu couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he saw his parents. At the same time, he also felt that it was inappropriate for him to bring a girl of unknown origin home. Therefore, after explaining to his parents that he was "tired from the journey and wanted to go back to his room to rest", he He left the hall with a desolate expression.
Liu Zian felt a little distressed when he saw his elder brother, and planned to run after him to comfort him.Liu Zian believed that the woman who could make his elder brother fall in love with him would definitely not be a girl of unknown origin.However, what he saw while passing the garden made him overturn his previous thoughts.
After Mr. Baohe finished speaking, he stroked his long hair.Liu Zian calmed down and looked around.If you look carefully, you might be able to find it too.But so far, I haven't seen Mr.'s fallen hair.
"What happened after that? What happened?"

"Didn't you get lost on the way back, sir?"
"Of course I got lost."
"Please don't speak so confidently, it's time for you to reflect on yourself."
"I really suffered a lot. I lost my way several times a day, and I almost couldn't get back. I'll talk to you about it later. After all, it's quite lonely to be lost alone.
