Chapter 331 Chapter 96: Vampire Leeches

I remembered what my grandfather said about predicting the weather last night, and I yelled: "Not good!" Grandma was startled by my sudden scream, put down the wet clothes in her hands and asked, "What's wrong with you? You were so startled early in the morning. Do you want to scare grandma to death?" I quickly rinsed off the toothpaste foam in my mouth, put the toothpaste and toothbrush next to grandma, and said nervously: "It's over, it's over. Mr. Yimowu is in danger! I have to go to Wentian Village immediately. Grandma, please take care of me My rose, water it. I went to Wentian Village to eat again."

Grandma was confused by my words: "You just came back from Wentian Village last night, why are you going there again so early in the morning?" I said: "Grandpa guessed last night based on the south wind that it will not be sunny today, but you see, the sun is shining brightly in the sky. Mr. Ichimogo can't see the sun, so they are miserable!" Grandma said: "Your grandpa went out at dawn today, did he also go to the place you mentioned? What happened? Can't we go after breakfast?" I nodded and said, "I think grandpa went there too, and he didn't even have time to tell me! Grandma, I'm leaving first! I'll explain to you when I come back." After I finished speaking, I hurriedly ran along the road last night go back.

When I was out of breath and rushed to the ground where Wen Huan was, I saw my grandfather there.Wen Huanzai and his daughter-in-law were also looking down at the circle that grandpa drew last night.Wen Huan was sitting on the chair, his legs dangling limply.But there is one more thing on the circle - the bamboo bed.The light from the sun was just blocked by the bamboo bed, and the circle fell in the shadow of the bamboo bed. When grandpa saw me running, a comfortable smile appeared on his face. "It seems that gutter ghosts are not as simple as we imagined!" Grandpa bit his lower lip and said, "The south wind last night was caused by them, which almost made me lose my trust in Mr. Ichimogogo."

Wen Huan and his daughter-in-law smiled and nodded. It seemed that Grandpa had already explained the gutter ghost to them. "You didn't notice that Nanfeng was abnormal at the time, how did you find out later?" I asked. Grandpa smiled and said, "I'll tell you when I get home." I knew that Grandpa didn't want to talk about alchemy in front of others, so I didn't force it anymore. Wen Huanzai asked his grandfather curiously: "Then how did you know where the sewer ghosts are and subdue them all?" "Huh?!" I was stunned.It turns out that grandpa not only saved Mr. Ichimokugo when he went out early in the morning, but also subdued all the gutter ghosts!Immediately, I hated myself for not being up to date and snoozing, and hated my grandpa for not telling me and asking me to subdue the gutter ghost together.I stared at Grandpa angrily.But I still have a question in my mind: since grandpa is in the period of backlash, how can he subdue so many gutter ghosts?Fortunately, Wen Huanzai had already asked this question, so I shut my mouth tightly and waited for Grandpa to answer.

Grandpa showed a sly smile, and joked: "My father told me. He not only told me how to subdue gutter ghosts, but also told me where these gutter ghosts are hiding." Fishnet funnel. Grandpa didn't say that I haven't noticed that there is a fishing net funnel at the foot of the bamboo bed.The fishing net funnel is made of a bamboo piece bent into a semicircle and a fishing net.When I was a child, I liked to use such a fishing net funnel to catch fish and shrimp in the old river or other small ports. But what Grandpa catches in the funnel of this fishing net is neither fish nor shrimp, but some strange things that resemble aquatic plants, but are much larger and thicker than the leaves of aquatic plants.Under the sunshine, those "water grass leaves" huddled together as if they were afraid of pain, like egg rolls just baked, still steaming.

"These things... are gutter ghosts?" I was so surprised that I couldn't speak clearly. Wen Huan said triumphantly, "Then what do you call a gutter ghost?" Grandpa chuckled. Wen Huanzai pointed to the strange thing on the ground with a somewhat showy look, "This thing is like the leech in our paddy field, it has to parasitize on people to survive. When it can't harm other people , they die." I know about leeches. These disgusting and disgusting things can be seen everywhere in the paddy fields in the south.When people transplant rice seedlings in paddy fields, they can find the location of people by following the sound of water caused by people's movement.Then, without people feeling it, they suck their sucker-like soft mouths on people's legs, sucking people's blood.When their stomachs are rounded and rolled by human blood, they release their sucker-like soft mouths and fall back into the paddy field, waiting for a new source of blood when they are hungry.

What makes people feel terrible is that this animal cannot be beaten or killed.If you crush it with a stone, it will return to its original shape once it hits water; if you chop it into more than ten pieces, once it hits water, it will dissolve into more than a dozen leeches . When I was helping my grandfather plant rice in the paddy field, I was most afraid of encountering such things. Every time my grandfather caught the leech, he would break a straw from the ridge of the field, hold the end of the straw against the soft mouth of the leech, turn the locust over like washing pig intestines, and then put it on the ridge of the field. Let the sun bask.Grandpa said that only in this way can the leeches be completely stopped from resurrecting.

"Gutter ghosts suck human spirit, and leeches suck human blood. Can leeches also be considered a kind of ghost?" Wen Huan raised his head and asked his grandfather, kneading his two limp legs. I smiled and said, "Your idea is really strange. Can a leech be a ghost? This is the first time I've heard someone say that." Wen Huan argued: "Why not? People are also called ghosts. Those who do things in a hurry and without thinking are called daredevils. Those who are as stubborn as an iron rooster are called cheapskate. Those who are as cowardly as a mouse are called cowards. I Seeing the leech can also be called a kind of vampire."

Grandpa picked up the fishing net funnel, looked at the gutter ghost curled up inside, and said: "People are classified as ghosts, from people, like ghost heads, ghosts and thieves are harmed, from Si." "Shuowen Jiezi" explains ghosts like this After all, ghosts are not the same as people. Calling people ghosts is mostly a derogatory term.”
