made a fool of myself

ty, brought all sorts of things to the two babies. There were auspicious lockets and jade necklaces, protective peach talismans, and even a pair of embroidered Tai Chi Pisces swaddles and tiny clothes...A slight error in one's destiny, arranged marriage, fate, or even one's physical condition... could lead to death.

There are many so-called "ghost fetuses" that are coffins. They are the remains of pregnant women who, after death, lose their immunity, and bacteria inside them expand crazily, causing the entire body to swell like a human balloon.

This situation is called "giant view," with protruding eyes, flipped tongues, swollen limbs, and even the gonads (crab) being squeezed out and the anus (crab) falling off....

In this case, the "born" baby is basically a stillbirth. However, because there is a terrifying phenomenon of "postpartum delivery" in the mother's body, there is a legend about ghost babies.

Lao Zou's complexion wasn't good either, with a gloomy air between his brows.

"She's now determined not to leave the house, afraid that we'll take her to the hospital for an abortion... I put her food at the door every day, and she takes it in secretly in the middle of the night." Lao Zou said.

"Did she admit who the father of the child is" my brother asked.

Old Zou shook his head: "She feigned madness, refused to admit anything, and even claimed that if they hit her child, she would smash herself to death, resulting in two lives lost... We villagers are most afraid of such things."

My brother scoffed: “So affectionate towards an adulterer”

Old Zou said with a conflicted look, "But I don't even know who the adulterer is... I'm just spending all day hiding out..."

"Are you an idiot! The whole village knows you're home. Your mistress is coming to catch you cheating!" My brother scoffed.

"But I don't know what to do either... My parents are sick too, they're lying in bed, and I have to take care of them..."

My brother patted him on the shoulder and whispered, “I have an idea. Let’s stay here tonight, and you can go back in the morning.”

》》》

Lao Zou, taking my brother's advice, first went to knock on the neighbor's door, telling the old man that he was going to the next county to get traditional Chinese medicine for his parents. Then, riding a motorcycle loudly past the village entrance, he said a few words to the gamblers before leaving the village.

My brother and I pretended to look for a farmhouse inn at the village entrance, then quietly returned to Lao Zou's house. We took the key he gave us and opened the courtyard gate, deliberately leaving the lock unlatched. We crouched in a dark corner of the yard, holding our breath and staying still.

"You sent Old Zou away, so sure the adulterer would come knocking" I mouthed to my brother.

My brother frowned and nodded. "Judging from this woman's reaction, it seems like she's been having a passionate affair and has been unable to meet with her lover these days because Old Zou has been keeping an eye on her. She must be eager to contact him..."

It's so uncomfortable having to squat like this. Just as I was about to fall asleep, my brother elbowed me.

"...Mom, let me in." Lao Zou's voice rang out from outside the yard. I thought I had heard wrong.

The voice from outside urged a few more times, and a thin figure, leaning on a cane, slowly walked out of the main house.

She was Lao Zou's mother. She slowly walked to the gate, opening it while coughing softly and muttering, "My son is back... Mom is opening the door for you..."

Old Zou is back! My brother and I gaped in surprise—didn't we tell him to hide outside until dawn Why is he back so early

Outside the courtyard gate, a figure stood, lowering their head and stepping into the door. In a low voice, they chuckled, “……Mother, I have a friend here.”

"Huh" The old woman didn't hear clearly, trembling and saying, "Come in first, come in..."

Hey! This "Lao Zou" is surrounded by some ghosts.

We covered our mouths and held our breath, not daring to breathe. My brother quietly pasted a talisman on the handover spot in front of us.

The old man outside, "Lao Zou," was very cautious. He didn't go inside for half a day, just one leg at the door "testing" it out.

"It's over." My brother mouthed, "How many ghosts did you see on our way here"

There were at least three on the nearby road.

"——I treated Old Zou as someone in the industry too, so I didn't give him any protective talismans. He got followed by a ghost."

A door is extremely important in Feng Shui, it's the core energy field entrance. Lao Zou's mother "invited" not just Lao Zou but many others to come in!

Lao Zou walked into the courtyard, and we saw that his eyes were vacant, and there was a bit of blood on his forehead.

What's going on

I and my brother were a bit dumbfounded. Could it be that Lao Zou, after riding his motorcycle out for not very far, got into an accident with a ghost, got injured, and was then possessed by the ghost Did he even have ghostly pursuers following him

"Then, I'll bring 'them' in." Lao Zou took a step forward, his body as heavy and clumsy as a drunkard, stepping into the house.

This seems to have crossed a certain boundary.

Just like I had promised to heed the ghost's plea and been followed by it, the few ghostly figures trailing behind Lao Zou were invited in by the homeowner and immediately drifted into the earthen tile house.

Lao Zou tilted his head, moving slowly as he said in a low voice, "Mama, I'll send you back to your room…"

When he called her "mother," his tone wasn't like an ordinary person's. It was flat and slow, a bit stiff.

Finally, I waited for him and the old woman to cross the main house, sticking to the wall as we made our way around to the thatched-roof house.

Listen carefully, there's a moaning sound in the room. It's indeed ambiguous, but after a while, you can hear a tinge of pain mixed in.

From a young age, I took talismans from my satchel and wanted to set up a ghost-binding formation outside. Just as I had pasted two of them, a roar suddenly came from behind me!

Old Zou's eyes flashed with malice as he shouted, "Who's in the courtyard! Old woman, old woman... you dare to scheme against me!"

The roar startled me. Before I could finish sticking the third talisman, I felt a gust of cold wind sweeping behind me.

My brother kept following me in the shadows. He kicked Lao Zou away with a flying kick, then put the乾坤法劍 back into his backpack with his right hand. With his left hand, he drew out the small electric baton from his hip and switched it to his right hand.

My brother is getting really good at fighting... I don't want to brag, but since he became a dad, he seems to be even better.

With my brother holding old Zou back, I decided to smash the window. This earthen tile house had old latch-and-groove glass windows. I smashed a hole in it and reached in to pull out the latch pins. Then I opened the window —

Below the window was a bed, on which a woman lay sprawled, her legs wide apart, twitching in pain.

Her abdomen bulged, ripping open her clothes to reveal a section of skin.

I braced my hands on the windowsill and flipped in. The room was icy cold, with a ghostly figure drifting inside. As soon as I entered, the ghost scurried around frantically.

This speed is too fast, I'm afraid the Ghost Shackle Technique will be messed up again. I reached into my bag and pulled out a triangular Yu You Xiao Fa Tan, throwing three of them in front of me.

With compassion, the Holy One saves wandering souls.

To ascend to the realm of immortals, bearing the merit.

I silently recited the most simplified incantation for banishing spirits. The errant ghosts came to a halt, and I swiftly erected a spiritual barrier to suppress them.

The Ghost Gate appeared, trapping the ghosts. I let out a silent sigh of relief. Where did the other ghosts go

"Thanks, thank you..." I vaguely heard the ghost thanking me

I looked up towards the Ghost Gate, and the ghost had already been dragged away. This... is quite rare...

Never before have ghosts been willing to leave, how come today there's a ghost thanking me

I was taken aback, caught off guard, when a force from behind suddenly yanked my hair. about to launch into a barrage of insults.I hurriedly surrendered, saying, "Seventh Senior Brother, be mindful of the surroundings, this is a company!"He snorted angrily: "I almost sent the company e...
