Seeing that I was so stubborn, Grandma couldn't help but sigh and say, "You don't know, when sculpting the Buddha statue or the paper man, unmarried men and women are not allowed to be present, because when sculpting the Buddha statue or the paper man, in order to pass on the spirit, they have to find a living person at the side. According to her appearance, the statue or the paper person will pass on the spirit, and the person who is imitated will soon die."

What Grandma said sounded a bit alarmist, so I naturally didn't believe her.

She immediately straightened her neck and said, "Grandmother, look at what you've said. If it's really like that, then it's as good as dying every day."

After saying that, I immediately covered my mouth. In this world, people don't die every day. There are so many of them, who can guarantee that they didn't copy that person's appearance …

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shiver in fear.

At the same time, I recalled, stunned, that when I was making this paper man, Great Deity Li seemed to look at me frequently.

At that time, I didn't know what was going on, so I didn't pay much attention to it. Now that I've combined that with what my grandmother said, I can't help but feel some lingering fear.

Because I had something on my mind, I didn't even eat a few mouthfuls of the meal.

When I really couldn't eat anymore, I took a brush according to grandmother's instructions, pressed it into the inkwell, and hurried back to Butcher Liu's house.

Along the way, I didn't dare to delay any further. I was afraid that if I went there too late, the paper man would be burned. This was a matter that concerned my life and I couldn't afford to be careless.

But to my amazement, this time, before I reached the house of the butcher, trouble came to me.

Needless to say, whatever he was afraid of would come.

At this time, I met that colourful male corpse again …

"Little beauty, you're in such a hurry to come out. Don't tell me you're missing your husband?" I was walking when I heard the voice.

I subconsciously stopped in my tracks.

Ye Zichen looked around, but didn't see anything.

This time around, I felt really awkward. This fellow, when did he appear out of nowhere? It was at this time that he appeared. I was terrified. Gripping my brush tightly in my hand, I looked around nervously.

But when he looked around, there was nothing around him.

I wondered, could it be that I was hallucinating?

Thinking about this, just as I was about to continue walking forward, there was a loud bang.

My avatar hit me as if it had hit something, and I saw stars.

Raising my head once again, I saw an evil looking face appear before me in a bizarre manner.

His tongue was long and narrow, and when paired with his face, which was as smooth and white as a woman's, it made goosebumps rise all over his body.

With this male corpse's skin, body, and appearance, if it were a woman, it would simply be a disaster for the country.

"You, you, you … Get out of my way, don't block my way, or else I won't be polite." I pretended to look fierce.

When she was young, she often heard her grandma say that evil spirits were people who bullied the weak and feared the strong.

This could explain why the Evil Spirits were afraid of Butcher Liu. It was because he was brave, and he had a very vicious aura. So, the Evil Spirits were afraid of him.

"Hehe, I didn't come this time to have sex with you. I came to remind you that there is a problem with that Taoist." After saying that, he licked his tongue. This guy really does look like a coquettish brothel girl. I wanted to go up and beat him up.

"I think that's what's wrong with you."

After saying that, I picked up the brush and fiercely stabbed it into his nose.

It was the first time I had dared to confront him.

As I stretched out my brush, his figure disappeared like a bubble.

I was stunned where I was as I thought hesitantly, "Looks like what Grandma said is right. Evil spirits are afraid of evil people. If I were to pretend that I didn't want it, he would definitely increase his efforts."

As I thought about this, I got a little bit bolder, but I was still a little scared. I ran really fast on the way and arrived at Butcher Liu's house in a short while.

When I arrived, I saw that there were only five or six men in the house of Butcher Liu.

They were both married men and they were drinking at the eight-seater table in the yard.

Even though the weather was very hot, they still drank white wine. They truly did not know what they were thinking due to the scorching heat.

However, as I entered the courtyard, I suddenly felt as if I had fallen into an icy cavern. I didn't know if it was due to the atmosphere here or if this place was cold to begin with.

Thinking about this, I walked over to them in embarrassment.

"Five Chieftains, six six six …"

"Hello, uncle …" My voice was weak.

The reason why they, five or six men, were loudly guessing fists was naturally not because they did not know manners and were shouting in front of the dead. On the contrary, it was because they were timid and used their courage to strengthen themselves.

But soon after, I called out in a very low voice.

It was as if they were struck by lightning. One by one, they shrieked miserably and jumped up from the bench. They looked at me with faces full of fear.

When they saw it was me, their faces softened.

Although I frightened them quite badly, these few people didn't have any intention of reprimanding me.

Instead, he said in a slightly discomposed tone, "Little boy, it's so late. Why aren't you sleeping at home? Why did you come all the way here?"

I rolled my eyes. Yeah, how did I get here without thinking about what to say to them?

"Alright, hurry up and go back. It's getting late, don't make Grandma anxious."

Then they went back to their drinks to cover their embarrassment.

Relieved, I stuck out my tongue.

Looking around the yard, I didn't see any paper men.

After that, he moved closer to the table and kicked it. Feeling embarrassed, he asked, "Uncle, where is that beautiful paper sister?" I asked.

Hearing my question, the men's faces immediately turned pale.

But he still pointed. "Didn't Butcher Liu want to see our daughter? We've put her on the edge of the spiritual bed."

After saying that, they ignored me and continued drinking.

After an "oh", I quietly retreated and pretended to walk out of the courtyard. However, while they weren't paying attention, I took a big stride and hid in the woodshed.

Butcher Liu used to kill pigs and sell us cooked meat, so there was a big pot in his side room and a woodshed specially used to store wood.

There were no lights in the woodshed, and it was dark, so I hid here and no one could see me.

After staying here for a while.

When I saw them drinking, I suddenly lowered my voice and said, "Is the boy gone?"

After he finished speaking, he even quietly turned his head to look at the entrance.

Make sure I'm gone.

Only then did they heave a sigh of relief.

Then someone asked, "Tell me, why did the Old Wang's family have a daughter?"

"Sinner."

"Look at all of you! What time is it? Why are you still talking about this?"

A few of them laughed, then stopped talking about our family and continued drinking.

I was surprised at how they seemed to want to say something, but if I asked them now, they wouldn't tell me what had happened to our family.

I thought they were regretting Second Uncle's death, but I didn't think too much about it.

At this moment, they started to drink. I stuck close to the wall and stealthily felt my way towards the room where the spirit bed was placed.

Fortunately, my movements were light. I didn't make a single sound as I successfully entered the main building.

After I entered, my eyes swept around and found that the paper man was indeed beside Butcher Liu.

What amazed me was that when I looked at the paper man made by Great Deity Li, its appearance seemed to have changed. She really looked like me and the clothes I was wearing were the same set of clothes I wore before …

This... Was this a coincidence? After all, this girl's costume was worn by me last year. This suit was already burnt when I buried the man's corpse that I bought a few days ago.

If that was the case, how did Great Deity Li know that I had this set of clothes?

The more I thought about it, the stranger it became.

However, time doesn't allow me to waste. I quickly ran up to her and was about to grab the paper man to draw a cross on her neck with a brush.

It was at that moment that someone spoke up from outside.

"Aiya, we're too busy drinking. Look, the lamp is about to be extinguished."

The lamp, they said, was a candle, a white candle lit in front of the bed.

According to our customs, this is a lamp, or a Soul Lamp. In the days before the burial, the spirits of the dead were all around the body, and in order for him to be able to identify his own body and avoid being in someone else's body, a candle was lit.

At this moment, the candle was less than a centimeter away and was about to go out.

Those who were drinking outside noticed this situation and walked towards the house.

As he said it, my whole body felt like it had been struck by lightning.

I wonder what they would think if they saw that I didn't leave but was right next to this spiritual bed.

At that moment, I felt that it was better to have less trouble than less. I quickly looked around, but there was nowhere for me to hide.

In desperation, I had no choice but to bend down and crawl under the bed.

Drag and drag.

The person outside came in dragging his shoes. He lit up some paper money and said, "Old Liu, it's a good idea to keep going. Take the money and buy some wine."

Only after burning some paper money did they run off to continue drinking outside.

I was quite scared. In just a short moment, my entire body was drenched in cold sweat.

Under the bed, I saw that they had really left. I came out and quickly drew a black cross on the paper man's neck before sticking close to the wall and hurriedly walking away.

All along the way, I ran very fast. I had never been this scared before, I didn't know if it was because of this shameful deed of mine.

People often say that if I don't do something shameful, I'm not afraid of the ghosts knocking at my door. I wonder if I'll be knocked by the ghosts tonight …

Thinking of this, I became even more afraid, so I ran even faster.

When I finally reached the front door, I found the door was closed. I knocked for a long time before my grandmother slowly came out to open the door.

However, the first thing she said after she opened the door was enough to scare me to the point that I almost wet my pants.

"Little boy, you're back. Hey, the person behind you is …"
