Chapter 38: Bloody Clothes of Dry Bones (2)

If you become a ghost, you only need to float lightly to cross the river, and you can float to the other side. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info Lingxue came to the place where she was separated from Jing Liqiu, and after looking around, she didn't find her body. Then she floated back to the other side of the river, and stood beside the girl in red and blue clothes, and said sadly, "I can't find my body!" ”

The girl's dark eyes looked at the red sparkling river waves, and sighed sadly: "After waiting for so long, Daddy may not be able to come back." As she spoke, she put her eyes on Lingxue's face as thin as a cicada's wings: "Girl, when you came to this village, did you ever cross the river in front of you?" ”

"Yes, I swam from the other side."

"Then your body may be in this river."

"But I swam all the way very smoothly......" Halfway through her words, Ling Suxue remembered the picture of herself choking on water in the river, was that time?

It can't be, it's not so weird that I surfaced so quickly after choking on water. Lingxue secretly thought, not believing that she could drown.

The girl smiled faintly, her smile mixed with bleak sadness: "Today is the 14th of July, the yin qi is extremely strong, many ghosts come out and lurk in the dark place, waiting to catch the living and return the yang, maybe your body has been possessed by a powerful ghost and left this village." ”

Ling Suxue was surprised: "Then what should I do?" ”

"There is no way, I can only chase it, the ghost who has just returned to the sun can't walk in the daytime for the time being because the yin qi is very heavy, so when the day dawns, she will hide."

"But as soon as the morning dawns, I have to find a place to hide."

"Then it can only depend on your creation. But I know a ghost friend in this little village, and I can call them to help you find them. ”

"Thank you."

With that, the girl floated into the village and called out to the dark voice: "Hemp, Wang San, Fu Lizi......"

Seven or eight souls of different heights, fat and thin, men and women, floated over from all directions.

"Everyone, do me a favor, this girl has just died, and she can't find her body. Now there is still some time before dawn, and I hope everyone can help her find her body as soon as possible. The maiden commanded them like a leader.

The souls nodded in agreement, and then ordered the order to disperse.

Lingxue followed the girl to a dense forest near the small village and searched for it.

"This forest is the best place to hide, I think the ghost who borrowed your body to return to the sun should be hiding in this forest."

The two drifted one after the other for a long time, but they didn't notice anything.

Ling Suxue looked at the other party's blue and red back, and couldn't help asking, "Girl, why are you waiting for your father by the river?" ”

The girl was slightly stunned: "Because only these days of the Midyear Festival, I can get together with Daddy." Daddy dies in the river, and his soul will emerge from the river. ”

"But you've waited so long, and your father hasn't surfaced out of the water, will he have been caught by the Yin Si......"

"No way, he will never leave me alone, I wait by the river every year in the middle of the year, and he will appear one year."

"I didn't expect you to wait for so many years." Ling Suxue was both surprised and sad for the girl.

"Daddy didn't come out of the river because he was mad at me."

"Angry with you?"

"Because I didn't listen to him before I was alive, I didn't stay at home honestly, so he didn't want to see me all these years."

Ling Suxue felt strange, it is normal for parents to be disobedient, why is the girl's father angry and refuses to see her?

The hidden thing in this must not be as simple as a few words.

Ling Suxue wanted to ask again, but suddenly heard the girl panic: "Ah! It's dawn! ”

Rays of morning light shoot out of the ground like a rain line through the overlapping branches and leaves.

The girl hurriedly pulled Lingsu Xue to shrink, hid under a wild taro with wide leaves, and sat on the curved old stem, and the huge round new leaves on the top of her head were like a canopy, blocking all the sunlight.

"Sunlight is the nemesis of ghosts, so we have to hide in a dark place when the morning dawns." The girl kindly reminded. Then he took out a snow-white flute with a strange shape from the bosom of the red and blue clothes, and asked kindly: "Girl, do you know how to play the flute?" ”

"No, it won't." Ling Suxue shook her head lightly, looking at the huge towering trees outside the wild taro leaves and sighed, it is not easy to be a ghost.

"This flute is made from the bone of my brother's right arm, and the sound is more poignant and sad than that of an ordinary bamboo flute." The girl gently twisted the flute, and the smooth back of the flute revealed a particularly scarlet and dazzling pattern: "This bellflower is my brother's favorite flower, so I painted it on this bone flute with his blood." ”

When Ling Suxue heard this, she felt cold: "What about your brother?" ”

"He was already dead, and on the third day after my death, he was beaten to death with a hoe by a hateful bully, and his head was beaten to pieces......" The girl's eyes glistened with tears, and then she raised her flute and blew it gently.

The sluggish and mournful requiem, like wisps of smoke, drifted from under the green wild taro trees to every corner of the forest, all the way to the bustling villages.

In a farmhouse near the woods, an old woman who was spinning and weaving cloth said to the pigtailed child who was squatting on the side and pimpled, "Doll, do you hear the flute?" It's the female ghost who died unjustly in the woods next to you, you will play with the children outside the house in the future, don't go to the woods, otherwise the female ghost will catch you and eat it! ”

"Got it, Grandma!" The child is careless, but in his heart he is afraid.

The old woman sat beside the huge wooden frame of the loom and lamented, "All the living have done iniquity!" We innocent people who have harmed us must also be worried and afraid! ”

Time passed on the shuttle that the old woman pulled back to shuttle, and soon it was noon.

Ling Suxue sat under the wild taro, listening to the grumbling and sad flute, and couldn't help but say, "Are we just sitting here all the time?" ”

The sound of the flute gradually subsided, and the girl replied: "Well, because the sun and yang outside are too heavy, we can't go out without a thousand years of Taoism." ”

"But I'll have to look for my body, and by the time it gets dark, twelve hours have passed." Lingxue was anxious.

The girl took back the bone flute and turned her head to look around, then pointed to a gray wild mushroom growing under a big tree next to it and said, "The mushroom is the umbrella of the ghost, if you really want to go out, you can float under the mushroom and use it to help you block the sun, so that you can walk under the sun." ”

"But how do mushrooms become umbrellas when they're so small?"

"Ghosts have a slight amount of mana, as long as you think about it with your heart, you can do small things." The girl flew away: "I'll show you a demonstration." ”

After that, she flew under the mushroom, held the mushroom and uprooted it, and with a slight turn, the girl instantly became bigger, and the mushroom also turned into a gray umbrella, holding it in the girl's hand: "Isn't it very simple?" With that, she threw a mushroom at Lingsuxue.

Lingsuxue held the mushroom and spun down from the thick stem of the curved wild taro, and when she landed, she changed back to her original size, holding an umbrella in her hand, and sighed: "It's incredible." ”

The girl took back her umbrella and went back to the big leaves of the wild taro: "By the way, mushrooms can't be dried for a long time, and they will crack when they dry out, so every three hours, you have to come to the woods to look for fresh mushrooms." ”

"Thank you for the reminder."

"I hope you'll find your body." (To be continued.) )
