<li> 只见一个高约七尺的身影站<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">门口一动不动,似乎正<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">扫视殿内尚<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">酣睡的七<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">，过得片刻,这身影才迈开双脚，一步一顿的走了进来。此刻殿中蜡烛还未熄灭,李九<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">微弱的烛光下看去,不由惊骇的毛发竖立胆战心惊,差点失声惊叫了出来。却见此<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">衣衫破烂，形如蜡尸,全身还长着一寸多长的白毛，犹如穿了件貂皮大衣,更可怕的是就连他的面上也生满了细细的白毛,只露出两个深陷进去的眼窝,目放绿光盯着众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">。见此情形，李九双股战栗，<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">神像后屏息静气唯恐发出一点响声被他发现。这怪物转头四处看看，忽然俯身低头向众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">依次吹起气来，只见地上众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">被他一吹便将头歪<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">一旁，也不知死活。待这七<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">都被吹过，此物又返身来到第一<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">之前，蹲□子仔细端详一番，忽然将这<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">的头颅抱起，张开血嘴露出一口白森森的利齿便咬了下去。这<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">一声不吭动也不动，任凭怪物撕咬，想必早已死去了。李九眼见这血肉横飞之景，耳听嚼骨撕肉开颅吸髓之声不绝，端的是魂飞魄散肝胆俱裂，想跑却又双腿发软，唯有全身抖作一团。
过了一炷香时分，怪物已将四<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">的头颅啃食，大殿上脑浆遍地骨肉狼藉，李九躲<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">神像之后闭着眼睛<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">心中默默祈求韦陀神的保佑，正<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">怪物啃咬第五<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">的时候，李九忽觉喉头一阵奇痒，他一时再也克制不住便咳了一声。此时这一声轻咳<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">这大殿中显得格外响亮，怪物忽听此声，当即从地下站起，循声便向神像而来。李九见状吓的面如土色，可是此时又不敢逃，心中暗暗叫苦，唯有缩<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">后面听天由命。这怪物奔至神像旁，一眼便看见了后面的李九，见殿中还有生<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">，它不由勃然大怒，便想将李九抓住。可是它被神柜挡住，到不了近前，想要跃上神座，无奈双腿僵直却又不能，急切之下便伸开双臂抱住韦陀像一口便咬将下去。李九<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">后面肝胆俱裂，耳听得怪物口咬佛像发出的答答声音，他心中再也按捺不住，大叫一声便跳下神柜赤身向门外冲去。怪物见他忽然狂奔而出，一时猝不及防，待反应过来仰天怒啸一声便转身跟着出了殿门，<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">后面紧追不舍。
李九听到身后传来怪物的怒吼，知道它已追来，此刻命<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">瞬间，不由两脚如风拼尽老命向前方奔去。好<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">天上一弯明月照的四周甚亮，这一<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">一怪前后追逐，却始终隔着百余步的距离。李九又跑了片刻，忽见前方有一条清澈的小河，河面还泛着点点鳞光。小河之上斜挎着一座石桥，<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">桥的正中站着一个身着灰袍的白胡子老头，此刻他正依靠着栏杆低头看着水面，似乎正欣赏着月亮<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">水中的倒影。李九也顾不了那么多，一边喘着粗气一边向桥头奔去。白须老者见他奔至，忽然抬头问他道：“是否有<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08"><img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">后面追<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">？”李九此时已经累得上气不接下气，也来不及细说，边跑边道： “是。”老头又问：“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">是不是害怕行走的僵尸才跑的如此急迫？”李九听罢不由心中大奇，可又来不及发问，唯有点头不已。老者又道：“念<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">生平有一大善，赶紧过桥去吧。”说话间李九已和他擦身而过，待得跑过桥去，那僵尸也已追至桥前。李九耳听身后却是异常安静，并无任何响动，心中不由大为奇怪，于是停下脚步转头向后看去。只见老者仍然站<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">桥上，眼看僵尸奔上桥头，他不慌不忙从袖中拿出一道黄色的纸符，接着将纸符高高举起，口中念念有词好像<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">颂咒一般。说也奇怪，僵尸一到桥头便迅即停住，站<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">原地双手下垂，就此一动不动了。又过片刻，忽见老者袍袖一拂大喝一声道：“还不速去？”话音将落，果见僵尸慢慢转过身子又奔了回去。李九见状不由目瞪口呆昨舌不已，心中惊疑不定，不知这老者又是何方神圣，居然能制住僵尸。此时老者已转过身来对他笑道：“还不速去？”
李九听罢此言脚下不敢停留，仍旧向前奔去。好<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">行不多远，便见路边有一农家田舍，他心中狂喜，于是便敲门而入，告知这家主<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">原委。主<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">一听也觉惊讶万分，当下先找来自己的衣裤让邢楠穿上，待得天明便和他一起报知了当地官府，县令一听境内出了<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">命官司，心中不敢怠慢，急忙派出几个衙役和他们一起回到荒寺察看，众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">经过来时那座小桥的时候，发现老者早已不见，消失的无影无踪。等回到破庙进到大殿一看，只见七具尸体横陈于地，都已是血肉模糊面目全非，脑髓鲜血流了一地，真是奇惨无比，而殿中的韦陀像身上不仅遍布牙痕，就连手中所持的韦陀杵也被咬断为三截落<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">地上。几<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">见此情形大惊失色，又壮着胆子去回廊一看，那具厝棺仍<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">原地，棺盖依旧紧紧闭合。几个衙役也不知所以，当下回报官府，因怕七<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">暴死又变为僵尸，所以找来附近居住的几十个百姓，将七<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">尸首先行焚化掉。接着又命<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">去城中请来两位木匠，拿出墨斗一<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">拉一<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">牵，瞬间就<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">棺盖上弹下了三道墨线，每弹一下就听到棺内发出“铮铮”的声音，直到三道墨线弹好众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">才敢将厝棺抬到野外，<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">下面架上柴火烧了起来。眼看火势正旺，忽听棺内传来一阵鸣叫之声，就像牛叫的声音一样，众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">不禁大骇，纷纷四散躲避。好<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">过不多时声音便即消失，随后又有鲜血从棺中迸射而出，腥臭满地，直到一个时辰才烧了个干净。李九哭着对县令说道：“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">们八<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">同时出门，现今却只有<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">一个<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">孤身回去，虽然报知了官府，但是归家之后又如何对他们的家属交待？即便是说了实话，<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">家却如何肯信呢？”县令一听这话说的也是，于是当场命师爷写了一份文书，上面详实说明事件始末，再盖上官府大印，让他回去交给当地的官府作为证明。李九小心藏好官文，这才收拾东西踏上了归途，只是自始至终一直不知道那天夜里<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">桥上依栏而立的老者到底是何方神圣，也想不起老者所言自己平生一善到底所为何事了。

光绪年间，陕西关中有一张姓<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">家，这家只有四口<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">，年约五旬的老夫妻俩和儿子儿媳。父子两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">都是诸生（明清时期经考试录取而进入府、州、县各级学校学习的生员），因为家中贫困便<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">城中富<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">家教<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">子弟，所以一个月也难回几次家。家中只有婆媳二<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">，日常便习作女工纺纱织布度日，每天鸡鸣就起床，一直要辛苦劳作到深夜才能休息。这年秋天的一个夜晚，俩<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">正<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">屋中纺纱，忽听门外院中似乎隐隐约约有小孩的嬉闹声，婆媳二<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">都觉得很诧异，于是便打开房门出外查看。此时月色如水，将庭院照的雪亮，只见院中空无一<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">，而嬉笑声也转瞬即失，婆媳俩互相看看，均是满脸惊讶之色.若说是听错了吧，可是方才这声音却是真真切切，若是说没听错吧，这院中却什么<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">都没有，两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">四处查看一番之后并无发现什么异常，只好满腹狐疑的回到屋里继续纺纱。
不料过了半个时辰，她们又同时听见院中再次传来小孩的嬉笑声，这次的声音和刚才所听见的仍然一样。俩<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">停下手中的活支起耳朵听了半响，确定无疑之后方才起身将房门打开，没想到这次居然和刚才一样，一出去院中就寂然无声了，左右四顾一番仍是不见半个<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">影。婆媳俩觉得更加奇怪，心中也不明所以，只好回到屋里关上房门心不<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">焉的继续劳作。可是过了不多一会，门外又传来孩童的声音，这次俩<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">没有急于出去，只见媳妇听了一会，忽然眉头一皱计上心头，趴<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">婆婆的耳旁悄悄说道：“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">继续纺纱，<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">到窗边从窗缝里看看外面到底是怎么回事。”婆婆听罢点了点头，手上不停继续纺纱，而媳妇却轻轻起身，蹑手蹑脚的走到窗前从两扇窗之间的缝隙中向外看去，只见<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">皎洁的月光下，两个赤身裸体的幼童正<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">院中嬉戏，这两个孩子身长不满一尺，其中一个头上还扎着小辫，看样子似乎是一男一女。两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">先是携手到院中对着月亮拜了几拜，然后便互相追逐嬉戏起来。
媳妇看毕大为讶异，又悄悄的走回来将所见的一切给婆婆说了。婆婆听罢先是惊诧不已，接着便满脸忧虑之色，对媳妇说道：“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">看这恐怕是什么妖孽的子孙吧，<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">们两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">都是弱质女子，家中又无男<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">，还是不要去招惹他们，免得被其祸害。<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">听说见怪不怪，其怪自败，<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">们就当没看见罢了。”媳妇听婆婆这样说心里也感到害怕，觉得婆婆说得很对，于是便坐下和继续织起纱来，只是一时之间两<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">都有些心神不定。

李九听到身后传来怪物的怒吼，知道它已追来，此刻命<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">瞬间，不由两脚如风拼尽老命向前方奔去。好<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">天上一弯明月照的四周甚亮，这一<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">一怪前后追逐，却始终隔着百余步的距离。李九又跑了片刻，忽见前方有一条清澈的小河，河面还泛着点点鳞光。小河之上斜挎着一座石桥，<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">桥的正中站着一个身着灰袍的白胡子老头，此刻他正依靠着栏杆低头看着水面，似乎正欣赏着月亮<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">水中的倒影。李九也顾不了那么多，一边喘着粗气一边向桥头奔去。白须老者见他奔至，忽然抬头问他道：“是否有<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08"><img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">后面追<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">？”李九此时已经累得上气不接下气，也来不及细说，边跑边道： “是。”老头又问：“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">是不是害怕行走的僵尸才跑的如此急迫？”李九听罢不由心中大奇，可又来不及发问，唯有点头不已。老者又道：“念<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5L2gm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">生平有一大善，赶紧过桥去吧。”说话间李九已和他擦身而过，待得跑过桥去，那僵尸也已追至桥前。李九耳听身后却是异常安静，并无任何响动，心中不由大为奇怪，于是停下脚步转头向后看去。只见老者仍然站<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">桥上，眼看僵尸奔上桥头，他不慌不忙从袖中拿出一道黄色的纸符，接着将纸符高高举起，口中念念有词好像<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">颂咒一般。说也奇怪，僵尸一到桥头便迅即停住，站<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">原地双手下垂，就此一动不动了。又过片刻，忽见老者袍袖一拂大喝一声道：“还不速去？”话音将落，果见僵尸慢慢转过身子又奔了回去。李九见状不由目瞪口呆昨舌不已，心中惊疑不定，不知这老者又是何方神圣，居然能制住僵尸。此时老者已转过身来对他笑道：“还不速去？”
李九听罢此言脚下不敢停留，仍旧向前奔去。好<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">行不多远，便见路边有一农家田舍，他心中狂喜，于是便敲门而入，告知这家主<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">原委。主<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">一听也觉惊讶万分，当下先找来自己的衣裤让邢楠穿上，待得天明便和他一起报知了当地官府，县令一听境内出了<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">命官司，心中不敢怠慢，急忙派出几个衙役和他们一起回到荒寺察看，众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">经过来时那座小桥的时候，发现老者早已不见，消失的无影无踪。等回到破庙进到大殿一看，只见七具尸体横陈于地，都已是血肉模糊面目全非，脑髓鲜血流了一地，真是奇惨无比，而殿中的韦陀像身上不仅遍布牙痕，就连手中所持的韦陀杵也被咬断为三截落<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">地上。几<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">见此情形大惊失色，又壮着胆子去回廊一看，那具厝棺仍<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">原地，棺盖依旧紧紧闭合。几个衙役也不知所以，当下回报官府，因怕七<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">暴死又变为僵尸，所以找来附近居住的几十个百姓，将七<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">尸首先行焚化掉。接着又命<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">去城中请来两位木匠，拿出墨斗一<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">拉一<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">牵，瞬间就<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">棺盖上弹下了三道墨线，每弹一下就听到棺内发出“铮铮”的声音，直到三道墨线弹好众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">才敢将厝棺抬到野外，<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">下面架上柴火烧了起来。眼看火势正旺，忽听棺内传来一阵鸣叫之声，就像牛叫的声音一样，众<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">不禁大骇，纷纷四散躲避。好<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">过不多时声音便即消失，随后又有鲜血从棺中迸射而出，腥臭满地，直到一个时辰才烧了个干净。李九哭着对县令说道：“<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">们八<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">同时出门，现今却只有<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5oiRm.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">一个<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">孤身回去，虽然报知了官府，但是归家之后又如何对他们的家属交待？即便是说了实话，<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Lq6m.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">家却如何肯信呢？”县令一听这话说的也是，于是当场命师爷写了一份文书，上面详实说明事件始末，再盖上官府大印，让他回去交给当地的官府作为证明。李九小心藏好官文，这才收拾东西踏上了归途，只是自始至终一直不知道那天夜里<img align="bottom" style="margin-bottom:-2px;vertical-align:top;" src="/book2/showimg?5Zyom.jjwxc.coma6b8d64d08">桥上依栏而立的老者到底是何方神圣，也想不起老者所言自己平生一善到底所为何事了。
