Chapter 770

"Come here and hold my hand." Li Teng said to Zhang Mengdi.

Soon, a cold hand reached out following the sound, touched Li Teng's body, then touched Li Teng's hand and grabbed it.

There was also a child's hand that came over and grabbed Li Teng's pants.

"Honey! Its hands are cold! It's a ghost! Push it away and follow me!" Zhang Mengdi's anxious voice came from the other road.

"Her hands are very cold, but her hands have always been so cold!" Li Teng sneered and clenched the cold hand that held him.

These ghosts have no physical body and can only imitate the voices of living people in the dark and let them hold hands. If they don't dare to hold hands, they will definitely reveal their secrets.

In addition, Li Teng is still very familiar with the feel of Zhang Mengdi's hand. They are an old married couple. If he can't feel his wife's hand with his eyes closed, he is 100% a scumbag.

"Thank you, husband, for your trust." Zhang Mengdi took Li Teng's hand and continued running towards home.

Her cold hands were slowly warmed by Li Teng.

It was warmed together, and of course her heart.

Finally, the family returned to the courtyard gate.

Just as he entered the courtyard, at an inconspicuous place above the courtyard wall, a talisman suddenly burned and quickly turned into ashes.

"The ghost is too fierce. The Taoist priest's talisman is not very powerful. Even if we hide at home, it will not be much different from being in the village." Li Teng frowned as he looked at the burning talisman.

"What should we do?" Zhang Mengdi was also panicked.

"Light the lights first." Li Teng said to Zhang Mengdi.

The two of them entered the courtyard, closed the courtyard door, and then entered the main room and closed the main room door. Zhang Mengdi searched around for a while, found a match, and wanted to light the kerosene lamp.

However, as soon as the match was struck, it immediately went out.

The door of the main room is obviously closed, but there is a cold wind coming out.

"Has the fire in the kitchen been turned off?" Li Teng thought of something and asked Zhang Mengdi quickly.

"It shouldn't be completely out, right? There are a lot of briquettes inside." Zhang Mengdi answered Li Teng.

"Let's go, take the oil lamp, let's go to the kitchen." Li Teng said to Zhang Mengdi, then picked up Shen Mengying, who was still unconscious, opened the door of the main room, and walked towards the kitchen in the dark.

The kitchen was also dark, but after fidgeting with firewood, there were still some unburned coals in the stove that gave off a faint red light, but it looked like it would go out soon.

Li Teng found a recliner and put the unconscious Shen Mengying on it to support him.

Then he stuffed some dry pine needles into the stove, and soon a fire was ignited in the stove. Then he put some briquettes in. After the briquettes were burned red, Li Teng found a brazier and put the burning briquettes in.

The briquettes were put into the brazier, and more briquettes were put in.

The fire from the brazier illuminated the kitchen.

"There were a lot of people who wanted to arrest Aunt Shen just now, but now they are all hiding." Nana said to Li Teng.

"After these briquettes are burned, they have the effect of exorcising ghosts, which is better than talismans. But those smelly Taoist priests didn't tell us what the effect of the magic circle was..." Li Teng recalled the scene at the entrance of the village.

There are five or six such briquette fires at the entrance of the village.

I guess there must be someone in the village who knows that these briquettes can drive away ghosts, but the reason why they don't tell them... is probably because they are afraid that every household will know about it and burn coal in large quantities, resulting in insufficient briquettes produced by the coal mine, right?

It seems that if I earn points again tomorrow, I need to exchange them for more briquettes.

"Is she okay?" Zhang Mengdi looked at Shen Mengying, who had been unconscious on the recliner.

Li Teng checked Shen Mengying's breathing and pulse, but they still felt very weak.

"You shouldn't let her leave the village." Zhang Mengdi whispered.

It was not easy for Li Teng to explain this matter to Zhang Mengdi... saying that Shen Mengying was just a cannon fodder who came to help him complete plot tasks?

Although Zhang Mengdi and Nana are NPCs, after Li Teng entered the plot world, he still treated them as family members.

"She will be fine, I will cure her." After being silent for a while, Li Teng answered Zhang Mengdi.

"Would you like to feed her some hot water?" Zhang Mengdi asked Li Teng.

After Shen Mengying entered the plot world, she instinctively resisted Zhang Mengdi. However, as the plot NPC, Zhang Mengdi seemed to accept the current situation of polygamy in this mountain village and did not show dissatisfaction with Shen Mengying. On the contrary, she was more concerned about Shen Mengying after she fell into coma.

safety.

"Bring me a drink and I'll try it." Li Teng nodded.

Zhang Mengdi brought a glass of hot water over, and Li Teng gave Shen Mengying a sip.

Shen Mengying instinctively drank the water. It seemed that the situation was better than expected.

I don't know if it was the effect of the fire, or the fire of the briquettes that drove away the ghosts. Without the attacks of the ghosts, Shen Mengying's breathing and pulse were stronger than before.

It's definitely not appropriate for the whole family to be in the kitchen all the time.

Li Teng moved the brazier to the bedroom, then carried Shen Mengying into the bedroom and placed it on the bed.

He also carried most of the briquettes from home and added briquettes to the brazier at any time.

One window was opened, and the door leading to the main room was also open to avoid poisoning due to lack of oxygen in the room.

Because of Nana, Li Teng knew that the fire burning coal briquettes could drive away ghosts. The Taoist priests must know that, and the village cadres in the village should also know.

It is estimated that ordinary villagers may not know much.

The wandering ghosts in these villages at night are not very aggressive, so they did not arouse the villagers' vigilance. The Taoist priest did not remind the villagers too much in this regard, and only asked the villagers not to leave their homes at night.

.

But these lonely ghosts are not completely without fighting power. When a person is weak, they will swarm up, trying to devour the energy of the soul and seize control of the body.

Fortunately, Nana saw this scene and let Li Teng know what was going on and how he could use burning briquettes to deal with it.

The next step is to find a way to hoard briquettes.

In addition, we must find a way to wake up Shen Mengying and ask her what she saw and what she encountered at the entrance of the village. Perhaps that is the key to solving this plot mission.

Let's see if she wakes up tomorrow morning.

Li Teng didn't have much to think about her current situation.

"For safety reasons, everyone will sleep in this room together at night." Li Teng said to Zhang Mengdi and Nana.

"Okay! Okay! I want to sleep between mom and dad!" Nana looked very excited.

Zhang Mengdi had no objections.

After night falls in the mountain village, everything is dark.

There are no mobile phones, no Internet, no TV, and no entertainment of any kind.

Chapter 771

So, after settling down, the family had nothing to do but sleep.

"Dad, tell me a story." Nana lay between Li Teng and Nana and asked Li Teng.

"OK……

"Once upon a time there was a mountain, a temple on the mountain, and a monk in the temple...

“The monk married three wives…

"One day, he said to the eldest wife, go get a bucket of water..."

Li Teng doesn't know any fairy tales, so he can only make them up.

"A monk cannot marry a wife." Zhang Mengdi corrected from the side.

"I'm talking about...foreign monks." Li Teng thought for a while and added an explanation.

"Can a foreign monk marry a wife?" Zhang Mengdi was a little confused.

"Mom, don't interrupt!" Nana listened with interest.

"..."

Li Teng's story didn't hypnotize Nana. Instead, it hypnotized Zhang Mengdi.

Nana became more and more energetic, letting Li Teng speak one after another.

In the end, Li Teng was too sleepy. He added coal to the brazier, went back to bed and lay down, almost unable to hold himself up.

"Dad, don't sleep. Can I tell you a story?" Nana pulled Li Teng's eyelids hard to prevent him from closing his eyes.

"good."

"The little rabbit went to take a boat and met a big bad wolf punting the boat. The big bad wolf said, "You feed me, so I let you take the boat..." Nana began to tell the fairy tale.

Li Teng started fighting with each other again.

Nana lay on Li Teng with bright eyes. When she saw Li Teng closing his eyes, she stretched out her hand to open his eyes.

"There is a house in the village. There is a stone behind the house. There is a shining thing under the stone. It is round, half white and half black. I told my mother, but she didn't believe it..."

Nana continued to tell the story.

"Nana, what did you just say?"
