Chapter 192: The True Version

It seems that the old man seems to think that Ruo Ling came here after hearing about the supernatural rumors in the village, so the old man put on this dissatisfied look at Ruo Ling.

Anyway, there was no one else in the room except the old grandfather, so Alice showed up when the old man was not paying attention. Because Ruoling can't speak the words of the village, it still needs Alice, a spirit who only uses her soul to 'communicate'.

When the old man was just a flicker, there was one more person in front of him. Although the old man was stunned for a moment, he quickly stopped overdoing it.

Alice smiled and waved her hand in front of the old man's eyes, "Old man, I am from this village." ”

Yes, only the people of the village speak the words of the village. So the old man stood up, smiled and beckoned Alice to come over, and pointed to the small benches in the corner, and motioned for them to move the stools to sit in front of him.

Ruo Ling smiled and acted as a person who didn't like to talk, the old man's eyes were not very good, and he didn't see the identity of Dugu's foreigner.

After the old man beckoned Ruo Ling and the others to sit down, Alice exchanged a few words of greeting with him before asking, "Old man, as soon as I returned to the village, I heard that the village was haunted." But my mother told me that the river is a good ghost, how can it make trouble? ”

When the old man heard this, he was so angry that his white beard trembled, "Those little cubs deserve it, if they hadn't sold that river to build a house, the little fairy wouldn't have been angry." ”

Fairy? It's so affectionate, it seems that there must be a story between the old man and the old lady by the river.

Seeing Alice listening, the old man shook his head and sighed: "Xiaoxian is a good girl, if it weren't for those people who disturbed her peace, she would never have come out to make trouble." ”

If the spirit is stunned, then the old lady is a girl? Is there a mistake in someone? Could it be that Xiaoxian and the old lady are both by the river at the same time, or is Xiaoxian reincarnated a long time ago, and the old lady is just a passerby?

Alice's reaction was also as thunderous as Ruoling, and she hurriedly asked, "Xiaoxian is beautiful and young?" ”

The old man said with a look of intoxication: "Of course, Xiaoxian is the most beautiful girl in our village. At that time, the village boys were all pursuing her, and I was one of them. As he spoke, there was still a hint of pink on his wrinkled face, remembering that he had always been flattering to Xiaoxian when he was a child, but Xiaoxian was still with Brother Tie Zhi in the end. However, Brother Tie Zhi is the object of his worship, and they are also the most suitable pair.

Ruoling and Alice saw the old man's appearance and fell straight 'chicken' bumps, Alice didn't want to see the old man fall into the memories of his youth, and then 'show' a shy face.

But since the village 'flower' mentioned by the old man was from when he was young, then the old lady may really be a little fairy. Alice hurriedly continued to ask, "How old was Xiaoxian when she died?" ”

The old man let out a long sigh, and there was infinite pain on his face: "She supported Brother Tie Zhi's parents alone, and it was hard to farm at that time. After Brother Tie Zhi's parents died, Xiaoxian died of illness in his forties. ”

In your forties? The old lady by the river is in her sixties, and it seems that she is not the little fairy anymore.

Alice tugged at the old man's sleeve affectionately and asked, "The story of Xiaoxian was told to me by my mother when I was a child, and now I have almost forgotten it, so let me tell it again." Oops, why did the old man beat me? ”

Alice covered her head and dodged the crutches that the old man suddenly raised towards her, but fortunately she was able to dodge quickly. Otherwise, if you are hit in the air by the old grandfather, the old grandfather may have a heart attack and braids, and he will be guilty.

The old man was indignant, looked at Alice and said angrily: "You are still from this village, how can you forget this story?" ”

Seeing Alice pouting aggrievedly, the old man finally sighed and continued, "Okay, I'll tell you about it again, don't forget it." Xiaoxian was beautiful since she was a child, and many children liked her at that time. By the time she was sixteen years old, she was already a village 'flower', and she was a pair with Tie Zhige, the village's work expert. You don't know, both of them are the most popular men and women in the village, and how many hearts have been broken after they are together.

At that time, they were about to get married, but they encountered war and chaos. Brother Tie Zhi originally wanted to go to war, and his parents also supported him to join the army. But because his parents had no one to take care of, Brother Tie Zhi had been hesitant to go. However, Fairy told him to leave to go to war, and promised him that he would help him support his parents. Three years later, Xiaoxian has been taking care of Tie Zhi's brother's parents, but Tie Zhi has never returned.

Many people said that Brother Tie Zhi died on the battlefield, but no one dared to tell Xiaoxian this guess. Later, Brother Tie Zhi's parents were distressed that Xiaoxian always ran to the river to wait for Brother Tie Zhi in his spare time, and they also wondered if Brother Tie Zhi really died on the battlefield.

They didn't want to delay her, either. So they lied to Xiaoxian that they heard that Brother Tie Zhi had married another 'woman' outside and would not come back, hoping that Xiaoxian would find someone to marry.

And Xiaoxian's parents have long hoped that Xiaoxian can marry a good home, instead of waiting for a person who does not know life and death. But Xiaoxian ignored them and waited slowly. Until the death of the parents who supported Brother Tie Zhi, she also died due to overwork and depression. When I first saw her body lying quietly on the riverbank, I even felt that she was still alive.

When she left, she was still holding the marriage clothes that Tie Zhi's parents had bought for them back then. Later, we partnered to bury Xiaoxian in the ancestral grave of Tie Zhi's family in the name of Tie Zhi's daughter-in-law, and the two sets of clothes were also put into her coffin. And then the villagers kept the whole story down. But, ah......" The old man said with red eyes, and covered his mouth with his palm to prevent himself from making a sound, but Ruoling could hear his painful "woo" choking sound.

He was crying, crying because the story of Xiaoxian was maliciously distorted because of the villagers' desire for profit, and because the story of the same generation that had been guarded together for more than 40 years was easily forgotten by the younger generations. After so many years, the contemporaries in the village who watched Xiaoxian cry from beginning to end have long passed away, and only he is still telling this story, but now......

Alice's tears kept falling, not only for the sake of the fairy, but also for the old man who had been guarding this story.

Ruo Ling bit her lip tightly to hold back the soreness in her eyes, and sighed slightly. Looking at Alice, who was almost crying, suddenly felt that this sadness was covered by Alice's tears and snot.

Alice tugged at the corners of Ruoling's clothes and choked up, "Let's help Xiaoxian, let it reunite with Brother Tie Zhi, okay?" ”

Ruo Ling frowned in embarrassment: "But we don't know where the little fairy is, it's been so many years, it's possible that it has been reincarnated." And that Brother Tie Zhi may have really married someone else many years ago, if Xiaoxian knew the truth, he would be sad. ”

It's not that I haven't seen the movie of Yunshui Ballad, and I firmly believe that the thoughts in my heart are sometimes much better than the truth.

Alice sobbed and continued to pull Ruoling's sleeve: "Help, help, let's check the truth of the year first, if the truth is that Tie Zhi married someone else, we won't look for Xiaoxian." If that's not the case, let's get the fairy soul back, okay? ”

Ruo Ling was most afraid that Alice would be coquettish, ignoring her face, and every time the voice pretended to be Situ Yue's glutinous voice, her heart melted when she heard it. Although there is no way to do it yet, it is better to agree first.

So Ruoling said "uh-huh" to Alice twice, first promised Alice, and then left the village chief's house with a few words of greeting. Originally, I wanted to ask the old grandfather about the appearance of the fairy, but the old man was too old to describe the appearance of the fairy. Ruo Ling had no choice but to hope that the spirits in the village could find the birthdates of Xiaoxian and Tie Zhi, and then come to summon spirits by himself.

It's been a long time, and now it's close to night. Ruo Ling finally decided to live in the same 'deed' sky as the members of the expedition team, and as for the temporary tents or something, the villagers had already prepared to rent them to the explorers at any time. And it's best to be next to this group of people, maybe they can get more useful information out of their mouths, and they have arrived in the village a long time before themselves.

At night, the members of the expedition were very skillful in 'fiddling' the tents, and it seemed that they often spent the night outside. Ruo Ling directly threw the tent to Dugu Yan to solve it, and Alice searched for the tent construction method from the Internet and showed it to Dugu Yan.

And Dugu Yan has a very fast learning ability, and he quickly set up a tent. If the more Ling looks at Dugu Yan, the more he feels that the child can be taught, maybe Dugu Yan can become a good ghost hunting master after training. And the most important thing for me is to teach him to be good, then he will not create and kill again, and maybe he can make up for his past sins.

The night of the 'spring' day was not cold, and Ruoling sat in the tent and looked around, looking for someone who might attack. At this time, Alice exclaimed from outside the tent: "Ruoling, he has found it again." ”

He? Ruo Ling quickly poked his head out of the tent and saw a handsome man coming out of a super luxurious tent not far away.

Ruo Ling jerked the corners of his mouth, what kind of heart did Xuanyuan Lie have. I don't believe that he came to the village to explore because of a supernatural event, is he so interested in himself? Is it just because you reject him that you 'provoke' his sense of conquest? Xuanyuan Lie walked straight towards Ruoling, but before he could reach the tent, he was blocked by Dugu Yan's outstretched hand. Xuanyuan Lie looked coldly at Dugu Yan in front of him, this boy he had seen before. It's just that I ignored him because I was in a hurry to ask questions about small things at that time, and now I feel threatened by him. He is so close to the little thing, and he is about the same age, could it be that they are a couple? Are you late again? No, he should be just a companion of small things, just an insignificant companion for fear of danger.
