Chapter 4 Chicken Feet Soup [Catch Bugs]

The distance of about ten meters was not far. Yu Jiuyin and the other four walked a few steps and arrived at the gate of the house next to the haunted house.

It is a family-style restaurant, with the first floor completely opened to serve as a guest. The boss is a kind middle-aged man. It is time for dinner and others are cooking. The open kitchen looks very clean at first glance, and it seems that there is a pot of meat stewed on the stove, which is fragrant.

"It's still so delicious!" The long-lost fireworks on earth relieved the mood of the three college students a lot, and they all recalled the good skills of the middle-aged man.

At this moment, a trembling old lady pushed the door open outside the door, her whole body was dirty and a little crazy.

As if she hadn't seen Yu Jiuyin and others, she walked straight from the door to the kitchen, looked straight at the middle-aged boss, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Did you see my daughter? Have you seen it?"

When Yu Jiuyin heard this, she turned her head and looked at her face carefully, then subconsciously frowned.

The messy lines of the Tears Hall indicate that she is in poor health when she is young and it is difficult to get a child. Most of the time it takes to be middle-aged to wait for her children. However, the crossed lines on her forehead are clearly impulsive to her own descendants. Even if she has children, it is difficult to keep in her old age.

At present, the old lady kept saying she was looking for her daughter. However, Yu Jiuyin felt that her daughter was probably in danger.

But the others who were eating in the store didn't care about this, but instead showed a look of disgust. However, the middle-aged boss had a good temper and took the initiative to come forward and asked softly: "We haven't seen your daughter, aunt, are you here to drink a bowl of soup?

"Okay, okay." The old lady took the soup handed over by the boss tremblingly, and then staggered out. Even the bowls in the store were taken away.

"Hey, she comes every day, and I don't know whether it's crazy or not. Why do you have to?" An old customer couldn't help but persuade the boss when he saw it.

"Hey, who hasn't been old for a day? It's very pitiful to lose her daughter." The boss smiled and shook his head, then went into the kitchen to work hard.

He cooks very well, has long fingers and is very skillful in using kitchen utensils. A wide-back kitchen knife can make a table delicious.

But when Yu Jiuyin looked at him, she always felt an indescribable sense of incongruity.

"Brother Yu, what are you looking at?" The second child of the three college students couldn't help but whisper in Yu Jiuyin's ear, "Don't look at the store here, this big brother is so good. When we saw this old lady last time, he also gave her a bowl of soup."

"I saw it last time?" Yu Jiuyin's heart moved when she thought of the customer next to her saying what the old lady came every day, and she felt that there were some clues that seemed to be connected. She quickly asked, "Did you see her drinking soup?"

"No." The second child shook his head, "and it's so strange. That day we were afraid that it was too late that day and she followed her secretly. As a result, she turned the street and poured the soup on the ground, lay down and kept searching inside, muttering no, no."

"I guess it's really crazy! How could I find someone in the soup?" The third brother joked.

But Yu Jiuyin continued with a low smile, "Maybe she thinks that her lost daughter is in the soup."

What was in the soup? The three of them were stunned and looked into the kitchen in the direction of Yu Jiuyin's sight.

I don’t know if it was an illusion, the middle-aged boss just served it out of the pot, as if it was not some chicken feet that had been overgrown, but... the twisted fingers of the young child.

Damn! The three of them were so scared that they shivered, but rubbed their eyes again and found that they were false alarms.

But Yu Jiuyin added, as if she was afraid that she would not be scared to death, and said, "Do you know what you ate that day?"

Of course, it is also chicken feet and sour bamboo shoot soup! However, if you were originally justified, inexplicably make people doubt themselves in this situation. The three college students couldn't even recall what shape the food they ate when they were eating that day.

If that's the case...

Vomit! The three of them ran out to find a corner and vomited all over the floor. The middle-aged boss in the kitchen saw them running out, and quickly came out of the kitchen.

"What's wrong?"

"Maybe it's too hot and heatstroke, so you'll be spitting out." Yu Jiuyin remained silent.

"Is that so? Then I'll give you a bowl of mung bean soup later, so that it's convenient to cool down." After a concerned explanation, the man went back to the kitchen. He didn't notice at all, and the coldness hidden in Yu Jiuyin's eyes.

——

The short episode soon turned over. With a knot in his heart, the three college students said they didn't dare to eat in the middle-aged boss's shop again. But Yu Jiuyin said that she was joking and actually ordered five meals from the man, packed them and took them away.

"Brother Yu, can this really be eaten?"

"Of course. Today I will live in the haunted house next door for a night. Don't yell in the middle of the night if you don't eat."

"That's too much, we only have four of us."

"Isn't the fifth one carried on your back?"

Three college students: Dad Jiuyin, I beg you for kindness

——

Just a few words of fun, when night fell again, Yu Jiuyin finally took three college students back to the haunted house next door. They climbed over the collapsed wall and entered from the back of the haunted house. After passing through a place similar to a utility room, they finally arrived at the living room on the first floor of the haunted house.

I can only say that things change. The three college students who ate hot pot last time were now trembling with scared. Even just standing there, they felt like they were about to faint in minutes.

But Yu Jiuyin seemed to be fine and asked them to put the food they bought before on the ground.

"Eat together!" Yu Jiuyin said this, but she had no intention of eating. Instead, she pulled a few pairs of chopsticks and inserted them vertically on the arranged meal.

The strange action immediately caused confusion among the three college students. Yu Jiuyin was not keeping it a secret this time and directly solved the doubts.

"I'm treating ghosts to dinner." He smiled and pointed to the ground. "In the Tianshi's vocation, putting chopsticks upright in the meal is the rule of treating ghosts to dinner. In fact, there are quite a lot of things like this. Just like you may have this kind of experience. After the canteen finishes cooking, stand the chopsticks in the rice for a while, and the rice will no longer smell. That's because the ghost passing by has finished eating, so it's boring."

... Very good, they all had sex, and the faces of three were as good as gold paper.

Seeing this, Yu Jiuyin's eyes became worse and worse, and she added another sentence. "What a pity, they won't know how to eat it even if they invite them, because even ghosts dislike the things in it."

So, is it really human flesh? These three unlucky children want to vomit again.

This time, Yu Jiuyin finally stopped teasing them. Instead, she took off the chopsticks, put her hands together and bowed in the room. Then she stood up and inquire about it.

In fact, after seeing the middle-aged boss, he roughly guessed the whole story, but he couldn't accept it in his heart.

Although the master told him when he was very young, human hearts are more terrible than ghosts and gods. He has been in Taoist temples all year round and has seen some human relationships, but in the end it is just big good and small evil, so just beware of each other.

However, today, he really felt how despicable a person could be.

Last night, when the stick ghost left a human skin doll, he also left a message to Yu Jiuyin. Unlike other people who were thinking about harming people and killing people, Yu Jiuyin saw endless despair from the broken face of the stick ghost.

He took out the copper plates that had been prepared from his pocket and put them step by step in a few fixed positions. Although it has only been a few years, there are very few haunted houses on Chunming Road. If Yu Jiuyin wants to solve the problem here, he must know the truth of that year.

The stick ghost is the evil ghost here, so the most convenient way is to ask him directly. As Yu Jiuyin set up the last copper plate, the soul-suming array was formed, and the temperature in the entire haunted house suddenly turned. The tragedy that had been covered with dust for many years finally revealed the tip of the iceberg.

Blood, scarlet blood. I couldn't run out, and the ignorant little girl was pulled by her brother and ran forward desperately. Behind her was the dull sound of a machete cutting off the bone. Then, there was the sound of footsteps that were slow.

She couldn't run away, she couldn't run away. The door was closed tightly, and her voice was so burning that she couldn't cry out half a syllable.

"Help... save us..." The silent voice was only breath sound, and the sound of footsteps behind meant that the executioner was about to arrive.

The iron hook penetrated the skin on the neck and hung on the short tree in the yard. But the murderer was so skillful that he could easily turn murder into a cruel torture with just a pair of scissors. Blood fell into the basin, the child cried silently, and the old man died with his eyes open.

And their father was tied to a chair and watched the scene in front of him. His eyes gradually became mechanically dissipated. Even hatred could no longer keep him awake.

When the police arrived, my father, who was holding a knife in his hand, was completely driven crazy.

Yu Jiuyin turned her head, and a trace of pity flashed in her eyes. The three college students were even more shocked and stunned, and directly cursed, "It's really a beast!"

Who would have thought that the sensational family case was not because the male owner, who was the father, had a psychotic attack and slaughtered the whole family, but was forced to mad by the murderer. What's even more tragic is that the mistress who was always scolded and said that the fuse of the whole family's tragedy was not because she ran away from home irresponsibly. Instead, she was killed by the evil man early.

The picture gradually faded, and finally the ghost finally revealed its true face. The ghost faces on the stick were all fake before. In fact, there was only one kind old man and a pair of timid twins.

The girl among them was a little shy and hid behind her brother and looked at them secretly. But her mouth was open, but she couldn't say anything.

"I was cut off my tongue before my death, and I couldn't speak after my death. No wonder she always sang nursery rhymes." Yu Jiuyin walked closer and touched the little girl's head intimately, understanding the singing that accompanied the stick ghost when it appeared before.

It was not a ghost nursery rhyme, but a replay of the scenes she had during her lifetime.

After hearing this, the three college students felt even more uncomfortable and their eyes were red.

"Do you know where your mother is?" Yu Jiuyin asked them patiently.

This time, it was the little boy's response. He nodded gently, floated to the window, and pointed to his neighbor's house from a distance.

"It's true." Yu Jiuyin sighed, turned to the three college students and said, "Prepare to call the police."

"Okay." The three of them agreed and quickly took out their phones and dialed 110. But just after they were connected, there was a sudden sound of heavy objects falling in the yard. Then, dull footsteps also came from outside the gate.

"Who is it?" the boss asked, and took the initiative to go to the door to check. However, just as his hand was about to touch the door, he heard a loud "clang" sound, and the axe blade with a cold light suddenly cut through the wooden door, pressing straight to the boss's nose that was close to him.

The boss was so scared that he didn't dare to move, but the scene he saw through the cat's eyes made him so scared that he almost urinated.

Outside the door, a pair of hilarious eyes were pressed against them, and the rolling eyes were full of bad intentions.
