Chapter 5 Moon (2)
【Hungry Ghost Festival】

"Will there be many, many ghosts during the Ghost Festival?" In a bedroom at No. 15, Central Avenue, the little boy showed fear, "Mom, I'm afraid."

Bai Wuchang leaned outside the window, took out his pen, and recorded the last location.

At the same time, Heiwuchang, who was far away, was standing in the center of the square in front of the ghost gate, announcing the final precautions.

"...Near No.15 of Central Avenue, don't go to the above 65 places, feel free to do anything else." Hei Wuchang looked at the small book in his hand, and emphasized, "You must remember, do you understand?"

After all, he opened the ghost door.

"Brother Heiwuchang, why can't you go to these places?" The little girl ran to Heiwuchang and asked curiously.

"Because strangers are afraid of ghosts." Hei Wuchang explained, "Although the appearance is the same, after all, ghosts are floating. You will inevitably be discovered if you go, so I have to feel wronged."

The little girl lowered her head in frustration.The amusement park is also a forbidden place assigned by Heiwuchang, and it is even highlighted because there are too many people who are afraid of ghosts.The little girl wanted to go there, and had planned for a long time, but now, it was completely ruined.

The square in front of the ghost gate is already empty, only the little girl is left, confused and not knowing where to go.

Hei Wuchang saw it in his eyes and shook his head.He walked up to the little girl and squatted down.

"Wow, that's amazing!"

In the playground, the girl looked at the roaring roller coaster and waved her arms in surprise.

"Hey, don't move around." Hei Wuchang hid under his robe and whispered to the girl riding on his neck.

"It's tiring carrying you."

【Ox head horse noodles】

The painter loves cattle the most and is also good at painting cattle. His painting skills are extremely strong and lifelike.His close friend is also a painter, but the material is different from him, and he is a good painter of horses.

The two have known each other since childhood and cherish each other. The only conflict is that they both think that their favorite material is the best in the world, and the other's is useless.

Another debate, the painter still devalued the horse that his best friend loved.Both of them drank, the discussion gradually turned into a quarrel, and they even almost moved their hands when they were excited.Finally, the best friend resentfully said the words of never seeing each other, and left in a huff.

In the early morning of the second day, the painter woke up and regretted it.He wrote several times to apologize to his best friend, but never received a reply.The two broke off contact like this.

In the past 20 years, the painter has aged a lot.In the past 20 years, he suffered day and night, feeling guilty.Finally, he decided to draw a "Horse Phase Picture" as an apology and give it to his old friend in order to repair it.

The painter sold his property, went to the grassland, and stayed with the horse all day long.He observed every detail of the horse and practiced countless times.The horses he painted became more and more exquisite and lifelike, even surpassing the level of his best friend at the beginning.Five years later, the last painting was finally completed, and he took the scroll with him on the road.

The winter that year was unusually cold.As he was old, he caught wind and cold on the way, and died of illness before arriving at his friend's house.

The painter was led by Heiwuchang into the Underworld, ready to be judged.After waiting for a long time, a ghost messenger wearing a bull's head mask held a scroll of bamboo slips filled with the painter's life, and pushed open the door at the end of the Hades.

The painter who was originally depressed stood up suddenly after seeing the bull-headed ghost, and said tremblingly and excitedly after being dumb for a long time: "This is the perfect bull figure! To see such a work, I am worth dying for!"

Hei Wuchang coughed lightly, signaling the painter to be quiet.Then, Niutou read out the result of the trial.To the painter's surprise, he was chosen to be Niutou's partner.

"Hey, Master Niutou helped me a lot." At the back of the hall, the painter who was about to take office smiled at his partner with a horse face mask, "I cast my painting into a mask like you and put it on my face , when my best friend comes, I can show him in this way."

"He'll look like me—"

Before he finished speaking, the painter suddenly froze and realized something.He suddenly turned around to look at the slightly trembling bull head, and the mask in his hand fell to the ground, making a "clang" sound.

【knight】

The knight has followed the princess for a long time, and they love each other, but the difference in status is an insurmountable gap.

I don't know whether it was luck or misfortune, the dragon took the princess away.

For the Cavaliers, this seemed like a godsend opportunity to perform.The knight packed up his luggage, picked up his sword, and embarked on the journey.

Under the castle, he rushed to the dragon.The giant dragon rushed over with its breath, and sent him flying with a flick of its tail one after another.

The knight was seriously injured, and he turned and left with a broken sword in his hand in a dejected manner.Enduring the pain, he dug up the soil and buried his sword.

Jianzhong means the farewell of a soldier.

The giant dragon looked proudly at the distant knight.

"Well, even you want to stop us."

The princess tore the long skirt short, picked up the sharp sword, jumped onto the dragon's head, and stabbed down fiercely.

A pair of long legs appeared in front of the knight.

"Dig out your sword and marry me."

【civet cat】

The kitten crept through the pyramid.

The owner of the kitten is Anubis, the Egyptian god of death.He warned the kitten more than once not to touch the mummy, otherwise it would bring it back to life.The pyramid is absolutely forbidden for the kitten, but it is still curious.

There's nothing scary here either.The kitten thought, and crossed one obstacle after another.

After another leap, it slipped and fell awkwardly to the ground.

The mummy suddenly moved.

The cracked skin fell off the mummy, and the corpse sat up abruptly, looking in the direction of the kitten.

"Hey, I didn't expect to wake up again." A hoarse voice came from the mummy's throat, he lifted his feet and walked towards the kitten.

The kitten was trembling with fright.

A scythe was swung across, and the mummy that had just woken up was beaten back to its original shape.Anubis lifted his foot and kicked the mummy back.

He picked up the kitten carefully and rubbed its head.

"You know you're afraid."

【rainbow】

The boy saves a sea eagle.

He carried it from the beach to his home, bandaged it, and took good care of it.

The sea eagle recovered quickly, but the strength had not yet reached the level before the injury.It leans lazily on the wooden frame all day long, combing its feathers.

"Eagle Eagle, do you think the rainbow in the sky is a real bridge?" the boy asked innocently, propping his chin with both hands.

"You have asked me this question 26 times, no." Hai Diao said, "Also, I am not an eagle!"

The boy let out an "oh" and drooped his head.

Hai Ying sighed helplessly.It shook its wings, tried to fly, and flew up.

The sea eagle grabbed the boy's shoulders, flapped his wings strenuously, and led him to stop on the rainbow.

"Look, I'm standing on it! I said it's a real bridge!" the boy excitedly said, "You still don't believe it!"

Hai Ying rolled his eyes.

"Yes, yes, you are right."

【cactus】

Another bug was scared away, even though the cactus had just saved its life.The cactus sighed, puffed out its chest, and stood alone under the scorching sun.

His body is covered with spikes, which can hurt others if he is not careful, which makes him ostracized and often alone.

The hedgehog passed by him and saw the lonely figure of the cactus.

"Hey, kid." A voice sounded from behind the cactus.He turned around and saw that it was a hedgehog.

"You're calling me?" Cactus was a little surprised, since he was born, he had no friends.

"Yes." Hedgehog nodded, "Do you want to do something?"

"Of course I want to, but my thorn..."

"Don't talk nonsense, help me make wine." The hedgehog interrupted the cactus, pulled a bunch of grapes from his back, and pressed them on the cactus.

The hedgehog turned around with a smile on his face.

"But your heart is soft. People with soft hearts should have friends."

【moon】

The little bird has always yearned for the moon in the sky. Its dream is to touch the moon and smell its smell.

The night the bird learned to fly, the bird passed through the cumulus clouds and flapped its wings upward.

As the altitude increases, the obstruction of airflow becomes stronger and stronger.The little bird exhausted all his strength, but he couldn't even get close to the moon.

A gust of wind blew and flipped the bird's feathers.It wobbled down and fell into a monastery, hitting an old monk who was meditating.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to interrupt your chanting." The bird hung his head sadly, "I just wanted to know the smell of the moon, but I was accidentally blown down by the wind."

The old monk smiled and shook his head, while comforting him, he carefully picked up the little bird and bandaged it.

After bandaging, he turned and left.When he came back, he was carrying a bottle of sesame oil.

The old monk poured the sesame oil into the palm of his hand and spread it evenly on the top of his head.His bald head was painted so shiny it looked like a mirror.

A round of moon shadow appeared above.

The old monk squatted down and pointed his head forward.

"You smell, the moon is fragrant."

【bone】

"You've been squatting here for a long time." The general said helplessly, looking at the dirty puppy in front of him.

The puppy sticks out its tongue, flicks its tail, stares eagerly at the general's table, and drops drops of saliva on the ground.

"I can hardly afford it anymore, so I have to give it to you." The general gritted his teeth.He grabbed the meaty bones on the table and threw them out.

The puppy jumped out and grabbed the bone, barked twice, turned and ran away.

After another battle, the general came to the restaurant again.When I was halfway through eating, the corner of my clothes was pulled by something.He looked up, and it was still the puppy.

The man shrugged helplessly and threw out a meaty bone.This time the puppy did not leave, but ran back with the bone in its mouth.

After a few times, feeding becomes a habit.

That night, the enemy army sneaked into the camp. The general mounted his horse and hurried to fight.He persisted in spear, beheading one enemy after another.

The flying arrow shot down the horse, the general fell, and the spear flew out whirling.He fought with a dagger, and gradually lost the wind.

"Wang!"

After beheading the enemy again, the general heard a familiar cry, he was taken aback, and turned his head abruptly.

Under the firelight, the puppy wagged its tail and held a long gun in its mouth.

【goldfish】

A new fish tank was added to the house, and the kitten squatted in front of the fish tank, closely following the goldfish swimming around.

The girl smiled and touched the cat's head, and said, "When the fish grows up, I will give it to you to eat."

The kitten turned around and meowed as if agreeing.

As time passed, the fish grew bigger and bigger. The kitten ran to the fish tank to observe every day, urging the girl to feed it, like a herdsman patrolling the pasture.

On a summer night, the girl was woken up by the heat.Sleepy-eyed, he fumbled for the water glass on the bedside.

As soon as she reached out, she accidentally knocked over the cup.Water was spilled on the power strip, and the lightning flashed a few times, and the flames instantly ignited the house.

The girl woke up with a start, and hurriedly cut off the power supply. The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and it had spread to the door in a blink of an eye.

A scorched boy broke in. He picked up the fish tank, put out the fire at the door, and dragged the girl out.

As soon as the two stood still, the girl received a slap on the back of the head.She turned her head in surprise, the boy looked aggrieved, and his voice was crying.

"You pay me for my goldfish!"

【ghost】

"What does it look like above the clouds?" The boy propped his chin up, looking at the clouds in the sky curiously, blinking his eyes.

Just as he was thinking, a black shadow suddenly flashed in front of his eyes.

"Ah!!!" The ghost jumped out suddenly and yelled.

The boy looked at him curiously.

The ghost floated in the air, its movements froze, and its expression gradually became ugly.

"This is an insult to my ghost character." Ghost said, "If today's performance is not achieved, all the ghosts in the city will laugh at me. Where do you want me to put my face?"

"Can you fly?" the boy asked.

"Ah?" Ghost was taken aback, "Yes..."

The boy rode on the ghost, cheering through the clouds, and the stars in the sky were reflected in his eyes.

"It's settled," Ghost reminded worriedly, "I'll pretend to be surprised by me after a while!"

【Elk】

The elk looked at the big tree enviously. There were many bird nests on it, and the little birds were chirping and flying up and down.

The elk circled under the tree for a long time.

"How can I attract the little bird?" It looked at the treetop and thought silently, "Is it because of the flowers on the tree?"

The elk spread its hooves and ran deep into the forest.It picked up many, many leaves and petals and glued them crookedly on top of its head.

The elk hides carefully behind a tree, sticking out a pair of long horns.

A little bird landed on it.

"Wow, what a beautiful flower!"

Countless birds flew down, chirping.

The first bird pecked the ear of the moose.

"You're such a poor disguise."

【pocket watch】

It is said that as long as you hold a pocket watch and shake it back and forth in front of your eyes, it will lull you to sleep.The hypnotized person will be caught in the long river of time, even if only a few seconds pass, it will seem like hours.

The boy carefully fastened the pocket watch to the stand, sideways.He took a deep breath and opened his hands lightly.

The pocket watch fell and swung from side to side.

Time passed by, the boy stared at the pocket watch, his eyes turned left and right, until the pocket watch did not move, and only the sound of ticking could be heard in the quiet space.

"Why haven't I been hypnotized yet?" The boy pursed his lips and scratched the back of his head in doubt.

He picked up the pocket watch again, and when he let go, he increased his strength.

The pocket watch swung rapidly. This time, the hands slowed down and even started to rotate in the opposite direction.

"Successful!" The boy almost jumped up.

"Hey, you!" The pocket watch suddenly called out.

"Stop shaking, I'm going to vomit..."

【two armies】

Next to the oasis in the frontier, there is an inn.The boss has a gray beard, and the rice wine he brews is absolutely outstanding.Since the beginning of the war 20 years ago, there has been an endless stream of soldiers and ruffians who have come to drink in the store.

He wasn't angry at all, it was just that the border was chaotic, and both Hu and Han armies were greedy for the wine he brewed. When they met in the shop, they would inevitably yell at each other and even kill them.

At this time, the boss secretly opened the back door, let the loser go, and called the winner a soldier, and sent two altars of good wine to appease and make amends.

For several years, there was no incident, until a group of new horse bandits broke into the desert.Taking advantage of the severe fighting outside the pass, they looted the oasis.

The horse bandits rushed into the inn, overturned the table and smashed it.The boss went up to stop him distressedly, but was kicked away.

"Bring the money!" The horse bandit grabbed the boss's hair and pressed it on the table.

The drumming of the two armies fighting suddenly stopped.

After a while, the door of the inn was slammed open, and soldiers in two different uniforms rushed in.

"Old man, there is no need to open the back door today." The two leading generals spat at each other and said in unison.

【Devil】

A couple opened a tea shop.The boss is a reclusive chivalrous man, who knows who is talking too much, and various deeds of his youth were inexplicably spread.

"Grandpa, I heard that when you were young, you were a well-known warrior!"

Several boys clung to the old man, stars seemed to pop out of their eyes.

"That's it!" The old man beamed with joy, obviously very proud of himself.

He slapped the tea bowl in his hand on the table, and said: "At that time, demons were everywhere, and I was the one who led the army to encircle and suppress them. The number of demons descended was countless, and even the demon king was defeated by me."

"Is there really a big devil in the world?" Several boys asked in surprise.

The adoring eyes of the children made the old man feel like returning to 20 years ago.He twirled his beard and said complacently, "Of course."

"What does the Great Demon King look like?"

"Tsk tsk, that's amazing." The old man smacked his lips, "Blue-faced and fangs, fond of souls, vicious and cunning, then... ouch!"

His waist was pinched severely.The old man grinned and turned his head, facing his wife's playful eyes.

"That... that is of course a misunderstanding of the world! Let me tell you, this great demon king is a beauty. She has bright eyes and teeth, and she is beautiful and intelligent..."
