Chapter 23 Determination
"I am Xu Banto's nephew."
Bai Ziyue replied simply.
In the same village, it is inevitable that they will get married. Strictly speaking, they are also nephews and uncles.
"nephew?"
He was a little confused. The nephew who came last time didn't seem to look like this.
But he didn't care, just said, "Xu Bantou is not here, so he sent a ship of cargo to consign, and he went to escort."
"When will you come back?"
Bai Ziyue's heart sank, and he was worried about this situation when he came.
He knew that there were many bandits around Qinghe Town, and the most rampant one was Guitouzhai. He only had a major case in the town some time ago. But the real headache was actually the water bandits.
The water bandits occupied hundreds of miles of areas around the Wuhe River. It is said that their strength is no less than that of the Lieyang Gang. If they transport some relatively precious goods in the Gang, they really need to be personally escorted by Xu Ming, the head of the squad.
However, Uncle Ming is not here, and that aunt...
"If it goes well, you will be back in three to five days. If it goes slowly, it will take about ten days."
The big man said casually.
"It seems that I can only find another way."
On the way back, Bai Ziyue frowned.
He knew not many people in the entire Qinghe Town, and Uncle Ming was already the strongest among them. Apart from that, only Uncle Sun Neng was the only one.
Although he never mentioned his past, he should not be weak in his strength before being able to escape from the bandits in Guitouzhai.
However, when Bai Ziyue told Sun Neng about the matter, the other party shook his head and said, "I can't help you with this matter."
Then, he seemed to feel that he had rejected it too simply, and then said, "A evil thing like ghosts has unpredictable methods. No one knows whether it is strong or weak. The Tang family also hired five channels to relieve the disaster some time ago. My strength is limited, so I really can't help you."
"I know some people are in trouble."
Bai Ziyue said with a wry smile.
In fact, he had expected it long before asking. He was able to leave him without hesitation and run away, so he was naturally not the kind of enthusiastic person.
But when the other party really refused, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
"Then, Uncle Sun, please tell me to Manager Li, I'll ask for a leave today and come again tomorrow."
Bai Ziyue said without saying anything, and went back to the room and walked out of Mingzhu Restaurant.
"It seems that I can only rely on myself."
After asking for help but failed, Bai Ziyue finally made up his mind.
He plans to take action himself!
In fact, he was not unsure of this matter.
The Purple Qi Observation Divine Method also records some methods for preventing and dealing with ghosts, some of which can be used by ordinary people.
Moreover, when he sensed the hidden aura of his cousin before, with his spiritual perception that was far superior to ordinary people, he could actually vaguely detect that the ghost's strength would not be too strong.
Perhaps this kind of intuitive perception is not accurate, but he still wants to give it a try.
...
Night falls unknowingly.
Bai Ziyue was dressed in black, carrying a wooden barrel covered with a cover in his left hand, and several bamboo barrels in his right hand, and carrying a half-meter-long rucksack wrapped in coarse cloth behind him, and stepped directly into Southeast Street.
Following the direction of my aunt's house in my memory, Bai Ziyue quickly stepped into a path, with the seventh number on the left and knocked on the door.
With a creaking sound, the door opened, and Bai Ziyue's aunt Bai Erniu immediately stretched out her head.
"Are you alone? Where is Xu Ming?"
Seeing that Bai Ziyue was the only one coming, Bai Erniu's face immediately changed and she said in panic.
"Uncle Ming has gone to escort, and it will take three or five days to come back."
Bai Ziyue said with a constant expression.
"What should I do? I went to the clinic today and found out that not only my Yumei has been entangled by ghosts in the past few days, but also many children, and this is the case.
The doctor also said there was nothing he could do, and someone had been killed. Without Xu Ming taking action, wouldn’t my Yumei be..."
As he said that, Bai Erniu's tears came down.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ziyue frowned and asked, "You mean, there are still many children who have encountered ghosts?"
"Yes, the old Hong family, which is more than ten meters away from my family, is as old as Yumei, and this is the case.
I heard that it was the little ghost who came to find a scapegoat to stay in the world... I pity my Yumei is only five years old..."
Bai Erniu looked sad and felt very frightened. Even the ridiculous remarks heard outside were brought up.
"Don't worry, I have a way."
Seeing that his aunt was about to cry again, Bai Ziyue said quickly.
"You? What's your solution?"
Bai Erniu was stunned and asked in surprise.
It was not until then that she realized that she had not seen her for a short time, not only had her nephew grown taller, but she was only one head shorter than her when she stood up. Even the expression on her face seemed serious and serious, not like an ordinary child.
"I've been with Lieyang Gang for this month, but I haven't learned anything. I naturally have the means to deal with it just a little kid."
In order to comfort my aunt, Bai Ziyue pretended to be relaxed.
"You really have a way?"
Bai Erniu was still a little suspicious. Bai Ziyue was too young to be convinced.
"certainly."
Bai Ziyue nodded, pointed to the things he brought, and said confidently: "I have everything ready. As long as the ghost dares to come, it will not be able to leave."
Although she was still a little hesitant, she really had no idea and had to choose to believe it.
Bai Ziyue and his aunt came to her cousin's room. Seeing that she had already fallen asleep, she directly said to Bai Erniu: "Auntie, go back to sleep first, I'll just stay here."
"Forget it, I...I can't sleep."
After hesitating for a moment, Bai Erniu didn't dare to say that she was also afraid and insisted on staying in the room.
Upon hearing this, Bai Ziyue didn't say much, and sat on the chair and waited silently.
In the room, the candle had already been extinguished, and Bai Ziyue closed her eyes to rest. Before he knew it, it was already midnight.
Suddenly, Bai Ziyue's eyes suddenly opened and she whispered: "Here you come."
Bai Erniu was clever and wanted to shout, but then she thought that she was facing a ghost, so she quickly sealed it with her hands, and asked with a sound like a mosquito and flies: "Where?"
She widened her eyes and didn't notice the ghost.
The only thing that made her feel something strange was that the surroundings became much colder, as if there was a chill that kept attacking her, making her shiver.
"Dirt your eyes with pomelo leaves."
Bai Ziyue took out a small bamboo tube and handed it to Bai Erniu.
This is the cow tears he came from the slaughterhouse for this action.
In addition to the cow's tears, he also filled a pot of black dog blood, a bamboo tube of cockscomb blood, and a bamboo tube of boy urine.
These are all positive things, and they have a certain effect on evil spirits like ghosts.
Upon hearing this, Bai Erniu quickly took the bamboo tube, pulled out the pomelo leaves, and stained them on both eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, she suddenly screamed: "Oh my god..."
