Chapter Twenty-Six: Yingying is already dead
Ignoring the pain of being stung by a bee, he took out the few copper coins left in his bag, and then used the stones on the ground to set up the simplest Nine Palace Bagua Array.
If Grandpa is still alive, seeing me put on this suggestive and ugly formation, he will probably slap me twice in anger.
This thing has no effect on ghosts at all.
But now, it's not the ghosts that have to be dealt with, it's the bees.
These manipulated bees will only move according to their inherent behavior. If it is blocked, it will fly like a headless fly.
When I put the last copper coin in the prescribed position, the blood on my hand that had not stopped was wiped into the eyes of the array, and I shouted: "Formation!"
The originally calm night was filled with gusts of wind, and the originally well-ordered bee colony began to fly indiscriminately.
When he looked back at Jiu Po, he found that Lao Zhang's face was pale, and the movements of his hands were getting faster and faster.
But the swarm did not listen to it at all, and began to fly around blindly......
"Boom ......" The dark night sky exploded several blue lightning bolts, as if to split the sky.
The bean-sized raindrops poured down like a scoop, and all the arrangements were completely extinguished in this quarter of an hour. The bee colony scattered as if it had been liberated. The nine women and Lao Zhang's faces had no effect, and they were also stung by bees.
The stack of wood burning in the middle of the clearing had long been extinguished by the fire, and only a little scarlet remained.
The villagers fell in the rain, and I sat on the ground, unable to get up.
Not far away, Jiu Po, like Lao Zhang and me, sat on the ground regardless of her image.
"Why, Zheng Fan, why don't you leave, you want to spoil my affairs......" The eyes of the ninth woman looking at me were full of hatred.
Lao Zhang didn't say a word, took out a bottle of ointment from his pocket and threw it to me, and he wiped it on the face of the ninth woman.
I used this black ointment once before and it worked very well.
After wiping his face a few times, he immediately got up and walked towards the dozens of villagers.
The villagers had been stung and their faces were swollen, and some of them could no longer even see their original faces.
There wasn't much ointment, so I could only apply a little bit to each villager's face.
By the time I had finished wiping the dozens of villagers, I was already lying on the ground panting heavily.
When I looked up, I saw a small figure standing beside me.
"Yingying, why are you here, Zhang Ying, what's wrong with her?" I was shocked, and forcibly stood up and asked her.
She didn't speak, her whole body was drenched, and the drops of water from her hair ran down her face, and her already pale little face became even paler.
Regarding Yingying's arrival, Jiu Po and Lao Zhang over there obviously didn't expect it.
"Yingying, come here, come here......" Jiu Po beckoned to Yingying.
But Yingying didn't go over, but hid behind me with fear in her eyes. When he hid, he pointed to my pocket.
I felt in my pocket, and the paper ball she gave me before I left was still unopened.
As soon as it was unfolded, the white paper was soaked by the rain.
In the dark night, by the scarlet fire behind me, I could see the contents of this painting clearly.
There are two coffins painted on it, one large and one small, and the larger one is tightly closed. And the small one closed and leaked a gap, and half of the face could be seen from the gap, which was Yingying in front of her.
Behind the two coffins, a dark shadow stood there, staring closely.
From the back, it can be determined that the person standing there is none other than Jiu Po.
I looked at Yingying in shock, and then at the nine women over there.
Let Yingying stay where she is, stand up tremblingly, and carefully hold the painting and hand it to the Nine Women's Book.
Lao Zhang looked at me defensively, and Jiu Po waved her hand at Lao Zhang, and he sat down.
"Actually, Yingying died not long after she was born...... Unexpectedly, Jiu Po was even more amazing.
Not only was I surprised, but even the old Zhang next to her was full of incredulity.
"I found a way to bring her back to life, and several people died. Jiu Po sighed and continued.
After Yingying's mother died, the ninth woman took Yingying out of her stomach.
Because Yingying's mother was in poor health when she was pregnant with her, and she was tortured by those things, there was not much nutrients for her child to supplement. Coupled with the sudden death of Yingying's mother, the newborn Yingying was even weaker.
Jiu Po took care of Yingying carefully after taking her back.
Despite this, the day after she was brought back, Yingying also died.
The ninth woman asked Lao Zhang to help open the coffin and help Yingying's mother collect the body. And Yingying's small coffin was built by the ninth woman herself, and it took a lot of time.
"But how did Yingying come back to life?" This is not only what I want to know, but Lao Zhang next to me also wants to know.
"The ...... who borrowed the lives of the dead," the ninth woman continued, "Several people died in the village that year, and they were all caused by the students who were burned to death, but in fact, I ......made them."
Even though Jiu Po and Lao Zhang wanted the lives of dozens of people in the village, I never imagined that this kind old lady would be so ruthless.
In the year Yingying was born, a total of seven people died in the village.
These seven people were bitten to death by poisonous snakes, stung to death by bees, some fell off a cliff by herding cattle, and some were in a car accident in the town.
It seems that the deaths of these people were all accidents, and there is no inevitable connection.
And the death of these seven people, the nine women have alibi evidence.
"In Huangshan Village, I don't know the person's birthday, and it's not easy to kill someone. When the Ninth Lady spoke, her expression was very calm, as if it was not a human being who was killed, but a weed on the side of the road.
When choosing seven people, Jiu Po was very cautious.
First look at the five elements of several people through the eight characters of the birthday, which must be consistent with Yingying's; then calculate the lifespan of several people, and borrow the lifespan of several people to add to Yingying's body, so that she can have a similar lifespan to normal people; finally, you have to make the life of several people and Yingying's life not exclusive......
Just screening these people made the nine women sleepless for several nights.
Since the corpse can only be left for seven hundred and forty-nine days, if it cannot be completed within forty-nine days, there is no way to reconstruct it.
So, Jiu Po started her plan.
In forty-nine days, seven people died, and of course the people in the village were afraid.
Jiu Po is the goddess of the village, and many people come to ask for questions, even including the families of the victims. And Jiu Po took advantage of this incident to lead the matter to the seven students who died in the fire many years ago. Seven died here, and seven happened to die over there......
In fact, Jiu Po doesn't need to say it too clearly, and the people in the village will imagine it for themselves.
Besides, the seven people who died happened to have participated in the events of that year.
