Chapter 22: The Living Corpse!
"Nonsense. I roared, "How can a dead man walk and talk! You don't have to waste your tongue convincing me, I won't believe you." ”
The girl sighed: "Hey, you know that you are deceiving yourself. ”
"I'll be honest with you, in fact, your mother's current state is called a living corpse. The so-called living corpse is that before an accidental death, it has a deep obsession with something, and even if it dies, the body will maintain its inertia due to the obsession and continue to do that thing. However, it was unconsciously doing it. ”
"If you guessed correctly, before your mother died unexpectedly, her deepest obsession was to protect you. So even if your mom dies, your body will always follow you and protect you. ”
"If you tell your mother now that you are safe, your mother's obsession will naturally disappear, and the inertia will disappear, and she will be able to rest in peace. ”
I realized that the girl was right, and that I was indeed making a fool of myself.
But how can I accept this cruel truth?
I was so desperate that I looked at my mom crying, not knowing what to do.
The girl took the trouble to enlighten me, and in the end I was moved by what she said.
Yes, I can't let my mother continue to be a "living corpse" in order to give myself the illusion that "my mother is still alive", so that she can't rest in peace.
The only thing I can do for my mom now is to let her leave in peace and not continue to be tormented by fear.
I knelt down, tears flowed uncontrollably, and shouted in a crying voice: "Mom, my son is safe, you don't have to continue to worry about me." ”
As soon as I finished speaking, my mother's bent body straightened up, and there was a "gurgle" sound in her throat, and then as soon as her eyes were closed, her body lay on the bed softly.
Although I had been mentally prepared, I still suffered a major blow when I saw my mother "die" with my own eyes.
At that moment, I felt a heart-rending pain.
The girl sighed: "Hey, stupid is a little stupid, but it's still quite filial." If there is no causal relationship between the two of us, maybe I will save you for the sake of your filial piety. ”
"Alright, no more nonsense, let's go. ”
I got up and put my mother's body on the bed, thinking a lot.
There was a serene smile on my mother's lips, and it seemed that she was walking with peace of mind.
I thought about it and thought that my mother might have been scared to death when she saw Second Uncle Wang's eyes falling.
Because of her obsession, her body continued to maintain the inertia of protecting me, so she was able to move.
Pity the hearts of parents all over the world, even if she is dead, she still doesn't worry about me, I suddenly feel that I am quite useless.
The girl urged me to leave with her quickly.
However, looking at my mother's corpse, I suddenly made a big decision.
I can't leave yet.
I looked at the girl and said, "I ask you, if we leave, will this village suffer?"
The girl paused for a moment, then remained silent.
She was acquiescing.
"My eldest uncle, my second uncle, and the villagers are all going to die, right? ”
The girl remained silent.
"So, I can't leave until I kill that rat spirit. I replied coldly.
The girl was suddenly surprised: "You are crazy, I can't even kill that rat spirit, let alone you." ”
I calmly analyzed: "If that rat spirit had the ability to kill me, I'm afraid I would have died hundreds of times." But I'm still alive and well. ”
"And just now, I saw the rat spirit, and the rat spirit didn't hurt me either. ”
"That means the rat spirit didn't have the patience to kill me. If it doesn't have the power to kill me, why should I be afraid of it!"
"As the saying goes, if you are afraid of ghosts, the more scary they are. You are not afraid of ghosts, but ghosts will be afraid of you. ”
"I'm so wondering, I'm a big living person, and I can't kill a mouse!"
With that, I walked out abruptly and into the utility room.
There were farm tools stacked in the utility room, and I found a sickle, an axe, and sharpened it on a stone mill.
In any case, I must kill the rat spirit, avenge my mother, and save the lives of the villagers.
Although the villagers have always rejected us and even talked about us behind our backs, I hate them.
But no matter how much I hate them, they are all my fellow villagers, not to mention that there are my relatives and playmates who have played since childhood.
Besides, I caused this catastrophe.
I can't just walk away.
The jeans girl also followed, looking at me angrily: "You...... You're really not leaving?"
I said with great determination: "I will never leave until I kill the rat spirit." ”
"You stubborn donkey. The girl stomped her foot angrily: "I really don't know how you got to this point." ”
"I'm telling you, that rat spirit isn't as simple as you think. It may be for some reason that it can't hurt you, but by you, or even the whole village, there is no way to help it. ”
I glanced at the girl coldly: "You go, I don't want more innocent people to take their lives because of me." ”
The girl was annoyed by me: "What am I so ...... You're a stubborn donkey. ”
"Where are you going to let me go? The two of us are cause and effect of each other, and if something happens to you, I will also disappear. ”
"Hey, let me ask you one last time, will you go or not?"
I ignored her.
I just feel like she's talking a lot of nonsense.
In the end, the girl really had no choice, so she could only grit her teeth and say, "Miss Ben is afraid of you, okay?" There is no other way, but to ask my master to go out of the mountain and help you get rid of the rat spirit." ”
"Is your master very powerful, can you kill the rat spirit?" I looked at her with an earnest expression.
The girl said with a proud face: "Of course that's amazing, otherwise how can I be Miss Ben's master? As long as my master comes out, he will definitely be able to kill the rat spirit." ”
I'm glad I stayed here.
Otherwise, the girl would definitely not have invited his master out of the mountain, and the rat spirit would continue to be at large.
"But I warn you. The girl said, "I'm going to find my master, and if I can't come back tonight, you must save your dog's life." ”
"If your dog's life is lost, Miss Ben will have to martyr you...... Phew, funeral. ”
"Miss Ben is not married yet, she died like this, why is Tete wronged, do you remember?"
I nodded, confused.
What is the cause and effect between us, and why can't she survive if I die?
"Speak, do you remember?" the girl asked anxiously.
"Remembered, remembered. I hurriedly said: "Don't worry, today the fifth master found the zombie grass to deal with the yin man, at least I won't have an accident tonight......"
"Wait. When the girl heard me say this, she was immediately stunned: "Yin man, zombie grass?"
"That's right. I said: "Isn't that rat spirit fried ghost bones, there will be a yin person to hook my soul, and the fifth master found the zombie grass ......"
"Stop, stop, stop. The girl waved her hand again and again: "The problem of the yin people, my big black cat helped you solve it last night." As long as the Yin person can't hook his soul the night before, he will automatically leave and will not come back a second time. ”
"Good ghosts don't hook the second soul, this is the rule of their yin people. So you don't have to worry about the Yin people, just watch out for that big mouse. ”
"Huh?" I was covered by the clouds and mountains that the girl said: "That Yin man won't come again?" But the fifth master said that the Yin man will come again to hook the soul." He even found the zombie grass ......"
The girl said: "Can I still lie to you? I tell you, now you can only trust me, and you, as for other people, including the fifth master, you can't believe a word, understand?"
"By the way, and the zombie grass you mentioned, how can that thing deal with yin people? It's actually just a kind of Chinese herbal medicine that paralyzes the nerves, and people will fall into a coma after eating it, and it has no effect on dealing with spirits. ”
"Don't eat that zombie grass. ”
My mind was messing up again.
I now firmly believe that the girl will not harm me, and she said that the Yin Man will not come again, and it will definitely not come again.
So, is the fifth master lying to me?
But why did the fifth master lie to me? What is his purpose?
Then I suddenly remembered what happened last night.
When dealing with the Yin people last night, the fifth master asked my mother to burn a paper dog at the door, could it be that the paper dog was really used to deal with the big black cat, and didn't let the big black cat save me?
The answer is obvious.
This realization scared me and I couldn't help but shiver.
