Chapter 3: Meeting of the Century
The "strong youth" was tidying up the improvised little swaddling clothes for the newborn little boy, and the child gave wormwood a look, and the weak woman fell asleep.
Yuan Qinqin dragged out her quilt and covered her, but when she saw Wormwood's face and lips as white as paper, and her breathing was undetectable, she only felt deeply powerless.
The girl was seriously injured. Now that I have given birth to a child and made a wish, it is estimated that I will not live long. There is a limit to what you can do, and the rest depends on the sky.
Yuan Qinqin soaked two buckets of noodles for herself, looked at the sky while eating quickly, and then looked at the rolled down pickup truck and the goods in one place, and counted her time pessimistically.
If you eat all this water, instant noodles, biscuits, and snacks, you can still live for a while.
But in this inaccessible place, where monsters can be seen at any time, I really don't know how long I can live, so my parents should be in a hurry at home.
That's right! Yuan Qinqin finally had time to think about this serious problem of confusing her worldview.
How did she get here? Where is she? Ahh Even if you fall down the mountain in a car accident, you won't fall here!
It's very high, but the city she lives in doesn't have such a high mountain, not to mention that the road where she had an accident is just on a small hill!
And this monster, this indigenous girl, did they run to the wrong set, or did I run to the wrong set? What's going on here?
The scenes were turned like a dream, until the baby began to cry, and the nervous young man finally came back to his senses.
She told herself: It's all true, the big monster cat that can fly is real, I'm sitting in his nest eating instant noodles right now, the delivery is real, and the child is crying.
But none of this is right! However, she was already holding the child and feeding the mixed milk powder.
The child's misty eyes made her feel that she was basically the same thing as this child who didn't know anything.
At this moment, on the cliff opposite the stone pillar, there were intermittent sounds of crutches and footsteps, Yuan Qinqin thought, what else can happen to ruin the three views, just come.
My mother must be dying in reality, so I have to have a bizarre dream before I die to complete my ordinary and boring life.
She widened her eyes and stared at the movement on the other side, and sure enough, her three views were refreshed again.
Who can tell her why the stone wall can come out of the steps on its own?!
An old woman in a variegated linen robe was humming along the stone wall: God knows that although she relied on her mana, she still climbed so tired, too high T-T, if she could fly up directly, the old woman would wake up with a smile in her dreams.
Grandma Sang was on a cane like a tree root that was rubbed and smooth, her hair was neatly tied up, and she was pulled into a small ball at the back of her head, and her eyebrows were not kind, even a little like the old witch turned into Snow White's stepmother.
But this face is not matched with a miserable smile, but a very kind look, which makes her whole person look a little scary and a little kind, which is really the first reflection of contradictions.
Grandma Sang finally found the Destiny person staring at her, her eyes were not very good, she was short-sighted, and now she is presbyopia.
The Mandate of Heaven stood on the stone pillar opposite, holding a small burden in her arms, staring at herself motionlessly, she could only judge that the overall shape was quite majestic.
Grandma Sang thought in her heart that the future of the people of the West was there, and in this solemn scene, a wave of excitement actually rose in her heart. This is really an epoch-making meeting! The first thing I did when I came down the mountain was to engrave this scene in her mural!
The strange old woman slowly climbed up to the platform at the top of the cliff, and then spun around in place, as if thinking for a moment how to get there.
There is at least a straight line distance of at least 200 meters between the stone pillar and the cliff top, and there is an abyss at the bottom, Yuan Qinqin kept complaining in her heart: she climbed up.
Wouldn't she want to come over? She actually wanted to come over?
An old woman who knows witchcraft or something, no matter how kind she laughs, it's still terrifying, okay?
Can you still let her live happily, after beating the little monster and beating the rhythm of the old witch, she really has no strength!!
Yuan Qinqin was blank, and the moment she saw the old woman taking steps towards her in the air, and a stone bridge actually grew under her feet.
She gave up her resistance and wanted to lie down quietly for a while. What kind of wind and waves will be said when she is lying down.
So when Grandma Sang saw the Mandate of Heaven on the other side seeing her coming, she turned around indifferently, sat on the ground, and fell down with a bang.
……?
Grandma Sang has lived for nearly 100 years, and she is also a strange woman who has seen the world, and when she saw Yuan Qinqin falling, she was just stunned at the moment, and continued to walk over there.
The climate in the mountains was already changeable, and it was foggy just now, and after a while, it had shrouded the entire Fengchao Peak as if it had fallen into thick milk. The atmosphere was dreamlike.
Grandma Sang stepped into Qiqi's nest and glanced at the strong man who had fallen asleep on the ground, dressed strangely, very strong, and his face could not be said to be handsome, but he still had a nose and eyes, a man, he didn't have to look so good.
He stepped forward to make sure that he had just fallen asleep, so he walked straight to Wormwood without stopping.
Wormwood's face was blue, and she had long since lost her breath, and on this high mountain, the cold wind had already blown her body cold.
Granny Sang stroked Wormwood's face sadly, although she already knew that Wormwood had died at the foot of the mountain, she was still sad when she saw the remains.
She gently pulled her quilt up and covered her face.
I went to see the child again, and I was sleeping soundly in the arms of the big man.
Xindao didn't know if the beast would come back suddenly, her wife had a little mana, but after all, she was old, and she couldn't compete with that behemoth.
Just sit down on the spot and watch over them, as a wake-up call.
Yuan Qinqin hugged the child's warm little body and lay on the floor on the mattress for a while, feeling very good, as for the matter that it seemed that a mother-in-law came to her just now, the moment she crashed in her head and forced herself to pass out was already overflowing, and it was not easy to return to the cage for the time being.
So much so that when she opened her eyes and saw a strange mother-in-law sitting in front of her, Yuan Qinqin was so frightened that her three souls went out of her body, "Ah! Who are you! ”
I didn't forget to grab the newborn little bean cube.
This kid was happy with the encounter, he cried for a while just now, but now he was very quiet, and he was not frightened when he was caught, he clenched his little fist and fluttered in the swaddling clothes, and then fell asleep.
"This kid ......." Grandma Sang stretched out her hand, and Yuan Qinqin shrank as she protected Xiaodouding.
"Will you give me a baby?" She felt that Yuan Qinqin's posture was wrong, the man's family just wouldn't hold the child, and if he hugged it like this, the child's neck would be uncomfortable.
Grandma Sang went further, Yuan Qinqin hugged Xiaodouding and shrank again, and all strange thoughts popped up in her mind.
I heard that there is an old witch who specializes in eating babies to keep her forever young, this old witch looks like her skin is wrinkled, and she asks for a child, I guess she has similar thoughts!
Yuan Qinqin, whose brain was stuck and her IQ was offline, didn't expect that she had fainted just now, and it would be over if people wanted the child to snatch it away.
"You answer my question first, who are you and why are you here?" Yuan Qinqin's Tyrannosaurus Rex voice, this voice is quite deterrent in ordinary times, and ordinary people are howled like this, and no one dares to bully her.
Grandma Sang looked at her with tolerance, and then at the wormwood lying on the ground silently.
At this time, I took a look at it more, thinking of all the benefits of this child, I couldn't help but have a little tears in my eyes, and said: "This is Fengchao Peak, and my family lives in a place where there are still a few mountains from here."
"The child you are holding in your hand is my goddaughter's child, my grandson. I was looking for my goddaughter, but when I got here, I found out that she had died. ”
"What? She's dead? Yuan Qinqin's eyes widened and she pounced on the wormwood who was covering her face.
Pulling away the horn of the horn and probing the snort and the major carotid artery, there was really no movement. Weakly sat down on his knees.
It was the first time she had seen someone disappear under her nose, and the first person she had seen since she woke up.
Although she knew that she might not be able to survive and that she had nothing to do, she still felt very sad that she was really gone.
The fat Yuan Qinqin sobbed, tears were on the child's face, Xiaodouding rubbed it dissatisfiedly, hummed twice, Yuan Qinqin's crying was full of feminine softness.
Grandma Sang looked at the person in front of her and actually cried at every turn. Suddenly, I felt that there was a difference between what I expected.
I couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "You, are you a woman?" ”
Yuan Qinqin was sad, and when she was asked like this, she didn't know what expression to make.
There was a flash of lightning in the sky, and it struck the hearts of the two men at the same time
Fat Qin Twitches: What do you mean I'm a woman?
Grandma was surprised: It's actually a woman like this!
It's still Grandma Sang's age, so she quietly walked away: "Now is not the time to talk about this, it's about to rain."
"It's not safe here, the beast was chased away by you, and it may come back. You come with me first, and I'll take you down the mountain. ”
Yuan Qinqin didn't recognize this strange mother-in-law at all, the story she said should not be believed, but when it came to going down the mountain.
She really didn't have the ability to go down on her own. So after thinking about it for a while, he tied Xiaodouding behind his back and said to Grandma Sang, "Wait for me to clean up." ”
Grandma Sang said okay, and then turned to Wormwood's side, sighing, Yuan Qinqin had to carry her luggage, and she didn't have much strength. The two of them couldn't take her down the mountain.
Over there, Yuan Qinqin packed her luggage with a big mountaineering bag and two large woven bags according to her own ideas, and bundled them together, just enough for her to carry on her back.
After tidying up the goods that could not be taken, he pulled out the rainproof cloth, covered the rest of the things, and looked at the overturned truck, which really couldn't be covered.
Staying in Qingshan is not afraid of no firewood, but fortunately she is fine. When she goes back, she must think about it and make money to pay her friends for this car.
After packing up and turning around, I saw Grandma Sang kneeling beside Wormwood, as if she was doing some ritual.
Wormwood's messy hair had been braided and neatly coiled on her head, and Grandma Sang held a strand of broken hair in her hand, as if it had been cut from the end of wormwood's hair, and put it in a small cloth bag.
beckoned Yuan Qinqin to squat down, asked her to untie the little bean dice, and said goodbye to wormwood.
Close to the deceased mother, the child does not cry or make trouble. Grandma Sang stuffed the cloth bag into the child's swaddling clothes. Then take out a small bottle from your body.
"Hold him away." As she spoke, Grandma Sang opened the small bottle and poured out some blue glittering powder, which attached to the body of wormwood.
Seeing that her body was instantly shrouded in blue flames because of the attachment of this small blue particle.
The wormwood's body was scattered into countless small particles of glitter in the flames, and as the wind rose in the mountains, Little Douding suddenly cried.
The shimmering dust surrounded Yuan Qinqin and the child, full of affection and reluctance, and circled twice.
Neither Yuan Qinqin nor Grandma Sang noticed that at this time, a little glimmer of light penetrated into the child's swaddling clothes, and they only saw the dust turned by wormwood gradually drifting away after a short farewell.
Walking on the stone ladder of Grandma Sang's transformation, Yuan Qinqin's heart was still haunted by the scene of wormwood's farewell, and her heart was strange, and one thing she didn't want to admit seemed to be devouring her with her mouth open.
She suddenly didn't want to face what would happen after she went down the mountain, and she didn't even want to go down the mountain suddenly.
She was tied to Xiaodouding in front of her, carrying a large package of 1.5 meters behind her back, and turned her head with difficulty to look at the pile of goods standing quietly in the fog.
As she walked down the mountain, she was gradually engulfed in fog and rocks, and the future was like a staircase under her feet, real and unreal.
Watching the magical old woman walk in front tremblingly, she felt that her heart was more desperate than hopeful, but Yuan Qinqin finally couldn't help it and asked a series of questions twistedly.
"Well, that, old woman, what do you call you, where is this? Also, is there a road in your village? How far is it from the nearest city? ”
