Volume 3 Strange Tales in the Countryside (40)

The voice was old and dry, a little rougher than a ball of rusty wire, in the quiet of the night, abruptly like a sharp blade, suddenly with a few wisps of strong wind, "boom" cut everyone's nerves!

"Ouch!" He Huan's feet slipped, and he fell down the ladder that he had just erected with the Dao Chief, and on the way down, he also pulled the sleeves of the Dao Chief, and the Dao Chang was already unstable by He Harmoni's impact, and now he lost his sense of balance, and he took two steps back, and also rolled down from the soil slope of the root of the tree with He Harmony.

The child's paper figure also "snapped" a few times and fell to the ground again.

Duan Qingqing only glanced at the source of the voice that scolded them, and before she could take a closer look, such a change happened, she didn't care about anything else, and hurriedly rushed over to support He Huan, who had fallen to the ground.

"Xiao Harmony, are you okay?" Duan Qingqing asked nervously.

He Harmony sat on the ground, sighing, his five elements do not belong to the soil, why has he always had such an indissoluble relationship with the soil recently, and it is also a bad fate.

"Oh, my old waist is ......" Dao Chang and He Harmony rolled in different directions, and when they rolled to the end, they were several meters away from He Harmony, and after steady, they saw that no one cared about him, and they sat on the ground and wailed.

Duan Qingqing was embarrassed to see him feel sorry for himself, so she quickly pulled He Harmony up, ran to the side of the Dao Chief, and asked pretending to be concerned, "Dao Chief, are you okay with your old man?"

The Taoist chief was a little more balanced in his heart, at least someone cared about him, regardless of whether it was real or pretended, he waved his hand and said with a bitter face: "It's okay, it's okay." ”

He Hui also patted the soil on his body, walked over and pulled up the Taoist, and helped him pat the dust on his body, like an adult helping a child clean up.

The Taoist always felt that something was weird, and in his mind he had already linked this kind of action with the sentence "Where are you going, Dad" that he had just said with He Harmony, so he felt awkward, so he quickly dodged with a red face, and coughed lightly and said, "It's okay......"

"Who's coming?" asked the Taoist chief as he let go of He Huan's hand holding him, took a few steps forward, and turned into darkness.

In the back of the moonlight, there was boundless darkness, which was the source of the old voice.

The man in the darkness did not answer, but snorted and panted, sounding like an old lady. Other than that, the only sound of slow footsteps and the sound of crutches hitting the ground was clearly transmitted in the darkness.

The Taoist chief was shocked, is it an old lady? Could it be......

He Huan calmed down and heard the footsteps, and also followed, staring into the darkness, Duan Qingqing behind the two of them leaned in the direction of the two Dao Chang, deliberately hiding her body behind the two of them, and it seemed that there were hundreds of small drums beating in her heart, and they didn't stop.

In a short time, the man in the darkness had gradually detached himself from the back of the moonlight, and revealed his figure through the brightness of the moonlight.

That's right, the Taoist guessed correctly, the person who came was indeed an old lady, and besides, it was her.

"Old sister, alas!" the Taoist chief patted his legs like a middle-aged woman, so excited that he almost burst into tears, he stepped forward a few steps, wanting to give the old lady a big hug, thinking that it was not appropriate, and changed it to take the old man's hand.

"You're here. The old lady's expression was very calm, and when she spoke, her lips moved very little, not that she could not open her mouth, but that the corners of her mouth drooped very much, and there were many wrinkles in the middle of the person, which had covered the lower lip.

It seems that this old lady is the old acquaintance of the legendary Taoist chief in Youshui Village.

He Huan thought like this, and looked the old lady up and down. The people in the mountains are unobstructed, and they naturally look much older than the people who are good at maintenance in the city, this old lady is full of deep wrinkles, her figure is already petite, and her body looks even more sad when she is older, she looks about eighty or ninety years old, but in fact she is only seventy or eighty years old. Living in the mountains for a long time makes this old man look very down-to-earth, and he is still wearing the common cloth clothes of the eighties, if it is not for the fact that his mental head looks unusually strong, he really has a little foot in the coffin.

However, the mountain people have always lived a long life, since the age of eighty or ninety, the age is like fixed in the life and death book of the king of Hades, this old lady is no exception, the body bones look particularly tough, from the perspective of a medical student, in addition to her older face, her complexion is ruddy and delicate, the joints of her legs and feet are not deformed, and her walking speed is also very fast, and the crutches are probably just a habit of hers, not a necessity.

He Huan looked at the old lady's eyes again, at the same time, the old lady was also looking at He Huan, the two looked at each other, the old lady was slightly stunned, and then the indifference in her eyes turned into love, He Huan looked at the old lady, and felt a little familiar, but he couldn't think of where he had seen it, after he saw the love in the old lady's eyes, he felt inexplicable, and looked indifferent.

The Taoist chief was left to the side, still holding the old lady's hand, but the old lady didn't look at him at all, which was really a little embarrassing.

"Oh, old lady, this is Xiao Harmonic, I mentioned it to you. The Taoist chief let go of the old lady's hand, turned sideways, and excitedly introduced the two of them, and he deliberately bit the words "I mentioned it to you" very hard.

He Huan was a little puzzled, and the tone of the Taoist chief seemed to be different from usual, as if reminding the old lady that she had mentioned He Huan to her.

"Oh. The old lady had more love in her eyes, but she pursed her lips, nodded, and said nothing else.

The Taoist chief pushed He Huan to the side again, Duan Qingqing's figure was revealed, he held the old lady's arm, pointed at Duan Qingqing with his finger, and introduced with a smile on his face: "This girl, is it...... A few of their friends are called Qingqing. ”

Duan Qingqing's eyes were full of panic, she wanted to dodge but didn't know where to hide, when the Taoist chief introduced her, she lowered her head resignedly, her eyes flashed, and she didn't dare to say anything.

The old lady's eyes were still loving at first, but when she saw Duan Qingqing's face clearly, there was no kindness for a moment, and then she opened her mouth in shock and said in an old voice: "You ......"

He Harmony and Dao Chang looked at each other, neither of them understood what kind of scene this was, how could two strangers who had never met have such a reaction to each other?

"Old sister...... This...... Do you know each other?" asked the Taoist with a sneer on his face, stunned.

"Qingqing, do you know this mother-in-law?" He Hui also pulled Duan Qingqing's sleeve, seeing that she was still afraid to look directly at the old lady, He Huan had doubts in his heart, you know, Duan Qingqing is yin and yang, and after seeing this old lady, she is afraid of being like this, could it be that this old lady is not human?

Thinking like this, He Huan quietly moved closer to Duan Qingqing's side, if there was really an accident or something, he could protect her as soon as possible. However, then again, with the Tao of the Dao Chief, can't you still see the problem that Duan Qingqing can see? That's not right.

The old lady did not continue, she let out a long sigh of relief, the previous loving gaze had long since disappeared, and the look in that look very complicated, the most obvious was a hatred.

"Hmph!" the old lady snorted coldly, and said coldly, "I won't know her!"

When Duan Qingqing heard this, her delicate body trembled, as if she was relieved, and the trembling amplitude was significantly smaller.

"Come with me, and don't wander outside at night!" the old lady turned, and took a step of her own way.

The Taoist chief glanced at Duan Qingqing suspiciously, and turned around to chase the old lady.

Duan Qingqing's body stopped shaking, but she still felt that her limbs were stiff, and her hands and feet became cold, she had expected this scene today, but when she really faced it, she was still caught off guard.

"Qingqing, what the hell is going on?Is there something wrong with that mother-in-law?" He Huan did not catch up with the Taoist chief and the old lady, but asked Duan Qingqing in a very low and low voice.

Duan Qingqing quickly shook her head, forced out a smile, and said, "No...... It's nothing...... It's just that she's a lot like a dead relative of mine. ”

He Huo smiled with relief, he raised his hand, originally wanting to rub Duan Qingqing's head to comfort her, but in an instant, Meng Li'er's face popped up in his mind, he quickly put away his hand and comforted: "Qingqing, the people and things in the past have passed, don't think about it anymore." ”

Duan Qingqing smiled bitterly, very relieved that He Harmony could still comfort him like this, if He Harmony didn't withdraw the hand that only wanted to touch her, it would be even better.

"Then let's go, we still have to go to find Qi'er and them!" He Huan urged, and turned around first.

Duan Qingqing looked at He Huan's back, and couldn't even smile with a bitter smile on her face, sure enough, He Huan still cares so much about Meng Hui'er, if there is no Meng Hui'er, if there is no He Jianguo, then isn't it, she and He Huan will still be together?

"Qingqing, hurry up!" He Huan didn't feel Duan Qingqing's footsteps, he turned his head and smiled, his gentleness touched Duan Qingqing's heart, naked^naked.

Duan Qingqing couldn't laugh for the time being, she pretended to think of something, and asked weakly, "Xiao Harmony, what should I do with this paper man?"

The old lady had been listening to He Harmony and Duan Qingqing's movements behind her, and it was because of what Duan Qingqing said that she was very much like Duan Qingqing's dead relatives and sulked, and vaguely heard them talk about the paper man, and then she remembered that when she first came, she saw Dao Chang and He Huan climbing the tree in the dark, and saw something falling from the tree, which seemed to be the paper man she put on the tree, if Duan Qingqing hadn't talked about it, she would have forgotten about it.

The old lady paused, and the wind-like speed turned around, this speed was even ashamed of He Huan, her eyes widened angrily, and she said sternly: "Who told you to move that paper man!"

He Harmony and Duan Qingqing were stunned all of a sudden, and the two of them both lowered their heads, one in front of the other, and they didn't dare to move.

The Taoist opened his mouth, but in the end he closed it again, he had no confidence at all in front of this old man, the age of the turn, the old lady was older than him, he had to be called an old sister, this is still a generation behind, the wheel of seniority, what this old lady will know, no one in the world may know. He is a little chicken feather Taoist, and he has a great reputation in this era when he is not allowed to become a fine after the founding of the People's Republic of China, and he has some real skills that dare to be compared with this old immortal. What can he do!

"Maomao, did you do this?" The old lady knew that she was talking to these two young people, and they just listened, and they were not afraid, but they would not listen, and young people had always been like this, so she changed the topic, and turned around and sprinkled her anger on the Taoist.

The Taoist chief respects her for more than three points, one hundred and thirty points, and three hundred points. What's more, the paper man's "chrysanthemum" is not guaranteed because of him, he is empty in his heart, hearing the old lady call his nickname, he was frightened, and the cold sweat on his forehead came out, and he rubbed and said: "That...... Be...... I do not know...... That's the old lady, you put on ......"

"Nonsense!" the old lady didn't have a chance to explain to the Taoist at all, her eyes were full of anger, and she scolded, "How old are you?

Like a child who has done something wrong, the Taoist head is down, and his head is little by little as the old lady scolds him.

If it weren't for the fact that the atmosphere was too serious, He Harmony and Duan Qingqing couldn't help but laugh.

The old lady was puzzled, picked up the cane in her hand, and slammed it to the ground, which frightened the other three people into trembling and burying their heads deeper.

"Do iniquity, you guys!"

The old lady trembled with anger, the Taoist chief was really afraid that something would go wrong with her, even if she was scolded at this time, she had to be hard-headed, otherwise she would really make this old sister angry, and that would be the real sin!

The Taoist took the old lady's hand with concern, and pressed her crutches firmly on the ground by the way, he was not less "educated" by this old sister when he was young, although it was not a crutch, but it was also something extremely powerful, this old lady was also a hard man in the early years, no worse than Meng Qi'er, and she was also a master who grabbed something as a weapon.

"Old sister, don't be angry, we're just messing around, we're still young, muddy!" The Taoist chief admitted his mistake categorically, and the wind changed his flattering smile again, and said: "Old sister, to be honest, we still have two companions separated, and we are worried about whether they are in danger......!

The old lady tried hard to suppress the anger in her heart, she also understood that many things could not be suppressed, and it was not something that a paper person could solve, she snorted coldly, glanced at He Huan and Duan Qingqing, and said gloomily: "You own mistakes, bear them yourself, and the same is true for your two companions!"

With that, the old lady turned around again and walked in the direction of the village.

He Huan, Dao Chang and Duan Qingqing looked at each other, not understanding what the old lady meant. However, they reached a consensus without communication, and they turned around and tried to put the paper figure back, but saw that the paper figure that had been lying on the ground was gone, and among the dense trees, the child paper figure was sitting on the branch with a smile and looking at them......
