116 gone
"Third Miss..."
A large group of black-clothed men and horses slowly walked out of the Ying family's old mansion crying.
Congqing held the spirit card of the third sister, and sat in a big carriage with a puffy face, her eyes half demented and half painful.
Lingzhi and Little Peach cried to death next to her.
The paper flies all the way.
Wei Fu Yin was dressed in black, and he had already brought seven or eight people to answer outside.
"Let's go." Wei Fu Yin made a gesture.
The two teams of people and horses gathered as a team to leave Ying's house and go to the capital.
After Qiu Bo and the people of the Fan family cried and watched the team disappear, they continued to return to the mourning hall to cry.
Zheng Qianjing sat in the carriage, and was blocked at the city gate before she left the city. Seeing that Wei Fu Yin personally escorted Ying Rong'er's corpse back to Beijing. The old thing reappeared, thinking of the misery of his death in his previous life, the thought that had just turned around was a burst of loss, and he couldn't deal with Ying Rong'er with his own hands.
"Ying Rong'er. You're a good guy. If it weren't for this accident, I would have made you worse off than dead in this life..."The pink lips moved slightly, and a trace of melancholy floated through her eyes.
"Get out of the way. Move. "Black Rock is on a tall horse, whistling his horse.
When the crowd saw the procession disappear, they made way for the spirits.
The party of Chengguofu left the city and turned west.
Zheng Qianjing looked through the small window and looked at the fluttering spirit flags of Yingjia from a distance. With such a strong atmosphere, people have to believe that Ying Rong'er is really dead.
"Strike. Strike ......"
Two old men in Tsing Yi rode horses to meet them.
"Get out of the way!" Black Rock shouted in front of him.
The two men had already recognized the opposite team, and they reined in from a distance.
Zheng Qianjing's carriage passed by them. She glanced at the two old men who went in a trance, ordinary people.
Zheng Qianjing wants to go to Shensao Peak to collect medicine?
I'm afraid it's not that simple.
The two old men glanced at each other, slowed down their horses and walked towards the old mansion of the Ying family.
The sound of prayer and mourning came from afar.
"Hey. Now she's dead. Will Qiu Bo give us face? Mo Qian was a little worried.
The morning breeze blows the goatee on Mori's chin. He shook his head, "(7) dǐng (7) diǎn (7) small (7) said, .⌒.□os_ (); Don't think too much about what you don't know. ”
Mo Qian diǎndiǎn head, can only wait to see Qiu Bo.
The old house of the Ying family was in front, and the two dismounted and led the horse on foot.
There were two servants of the Fan family who stood guard outside to receive the neighbors who came to worship the spirit.
The two tied their horses to the big tree outside the gate. I straightened out my shirt and walked over.
When the two servants saw that they looked strange, they stopped and asked, "Where do you come from?" ”
From time to time, I saw people coming in and out of the spirit. Imitating the accent of Dongpingzhou, he calmly said, "We are residents of Shensao Town. Because of the name of Mu Anpinghou, he came to see off the third lady. ”
Mo Qian held a box of sacrifices that had been prepared and revealed the dew. "There are no expensive gifts. The spirit room, the spirit horse, the spirit attendant, and the dark paper are indispensable for the third lady in the underworld. ”
A servant looked at the box, and sure enough, diǎndiǎn head, let them in.
In the courtyard outside the mourning hall, monks and Taoist priests are performing rituals.
The people of Qiu Bo and the Fan family were in four rows, arranged on both sides of the spiritual seat.
Because no bodies were recovered. Only ten spirit cards were erected, and ten coffins were placed underneath.
The arrival of the two strange old men did not attract everyone's attention at all. They placed the funeral objects in front of the spirit of the third lady and performed the salute. He didn't leave, and stood quietly in the line on the side. From time to time, they bow to the visitors in thanks, as if they are also the relatives of the bereaved.
Until late at night, the neighbors were scattered. They are not leaving.
"Please come back, both of you." Fan Zhenggao gratefully urged them.
Brother Moli waved at him and shook his head.
Qiu Bo came over, examined them for a while, and said coldly, "What do you mean by this, two?" ”
Brother Moli saluted him.
"We want to talk to Qiu Bo alone." Mo Li said sincerely.
"It's a neighbor. But there was no contact. And at this time, the Ying family is in a big event. Please go back. Qiu Bo's face was full of sadness, and his expression was very depressed.
Mo Li looked around, and after a day of observation, he knew that there were no outsiders except for the Fan family at this time, and whispered, "Do you really think that the third lady is dead?" ”
"Presumptuous!" Fan Zhenggao's face changed, and a pair of eyes that were swollen like rotten peaches emitted murderous anger.
"You're going to talk nonsense! No one will know that you will be killed here. Fan Jin picked up a big wooden stick from the side and slashed at him.
"Dare to come to disturb Sister Rong's mourning hall! Kill them! Yu'er cried on the side.
Mo Qian blocked the stick and hurriedly said, "We are the third lady's people!" ”
"What nonsense?"
Fan Xuecheng covered Mo Qian's mouth.
Fan Xueshu stepped forward at the same time to cover Mo Li's mouth.
Fan Zhenggao and Qiu Bo looked at each other, and the Fan Xuecheng brothers dragged them to a room next to them.
Fan Jin followed them in and closed all doors and windows.
"Honestly. What are you going to do? Qiu Bo knocked on Mo Qian's head with a chestnut.
Mo Li got rid of Fan Xueshu and whispered, "I have a token of Anping Mansion." With that, he took out a sign from his bosom and respectfully handed it to Qiu Bo.
Qiu Bo took the brand, took another sign from himself, carefully compared it, and headed Fan Zhenggao.
The Fan Xueshu brothers let go of the Moli brothers.
"We want to talk to Qiu Bo alone." Mo Li said.
Autumn Bo diǎndiǎn head.
The people of the Fan family went out and closed the door.
"Say it. What the hell is going on with you guys? Qiu Bo felt that they were not like the people in Anping Mansion, and guessed that they were deacons running outside.
"All the time. We are out there doing things for Miss Three. I heard the news of her death in Nanhai, so I hurried to pay respects. Moli said.
"What are you all doing for the third lady?" Qiu Bo diǎndiǎn head, still looking at them.
"It's not appropriate to disclose that." Mo Li said.
Qiu Bo pondered, "Now the third lady has gone. I'm afraid that in the future, she will have nothing to tell you to do. ”
Mo Qian sighed lightly, his eyes were red and said, "I'm afraid so." ”
"It's from afar. After the funeral. Go back. Although you have the brand of Anping House. But without the orders of the Hou Ye, I can't take you in. Qiu Bo said.
"We just want to do something more for Miss Three. I was afraid of being blasted out by you just now, so I said that the third lady might not be dead. Mo Li swallowed the matter of asking for medicine. It's too early to say that.
"Okay. If you are tired, you can go to the front room to rest. I'll take you to the guest room. Qiu Bo does not believe in people, does not believe in his explanation, only believes that the master of Anping Mansion will never give the token to unreliable people.
"We're not tired, we just want to burn more diǎn paper for the third miss. When everyone is tired, they can take a break in the mourning hall, and we can too. Mo Li opened the door and walked towards the mourning hall.
Mo Qian then came out.
In the mourning hall. There are ten braziers under the ten spiritual seats.
From time to time, the descendants of the Fan family added paper to the ten braziers.
"We'll be in charge of burning paper for the third lady tonight." Mo Li sat down in front of the brazier in the middle, Mo Qian took out a basket of dark papers from the table, and the two acted religiously.
Qiu Bo and Fan Zhenggao glanced at each other. Ignore them anymore.
Three days later, ten graves were erected outside the west slope.
The old house of the Ying family quieted down.
That night, in the living room.
These days, the two of them have done their best. Now the third lady's funeral is over. You two can go back tomorrow. Fan Zhenggao asked his eldest son Fan Xuewen to prepare fifty taels of silver. To the Moli brothers.
Mo Li pushed away the silver two. Looking at Qiu Bo and Fan Zhenggao, he finally said, "We want to ask Qiu Bo to give us a diǎn blood tongue to save people." ”
Qiu Bo's eyes were lowered, and his face was full of silence.
Mo Qian said, "Please look at the face of the third lady and give us a diǎn." ”
Fan Zhenggao flashed his floating gaze, "Who did you hear that Qiu Bo has a blood tongue?" ”
"It's also accidental. We heard that the third lady was killed in the hurricane water cave, so we first went to the hurricane water cave and inquired about it by the river. It's just because there is a paralyzed child at home. I heard that blood tequila can cure all diseases, and I heard that only Qiu Bo and Dong Bo went in to collect medicine. So after the burial of the third lady. I wanted to dare to ask Qiu Bo for diǎn medicine. Mo Li said sincerely.
"It turned out that I did get them by chance, but when the third miss first came back, I ate them all for the third miss. It's not that I refuse to apply medicine, it's that you don't have a relationship with it. Qiu Bo shook his head, roughly understood, and said slowly.
"Aren't you going to the Hurricane Cave tomorrow to sacrifice your souls? Allow us to go along and let us go in and try our luck. Mo Qian said.
Qiu Bo shook his head, "If I still have it, I will give it to you for the sake of your piety in these days." Unfortunately, I don't. Bloody tequila is an unusual thing. In the past, although many people entered the cave to have a relationship with it, few people have picked it. But tomorrow you will know when you go, so that you may die. ”
"Then let's try our luck tomorrow." Mo Li said.
After a few days of contact, there was a friendship between the Moli brothers and Qiu Bo, knowing that he was right, and also hearing that when the third lady came back, Qiu Bo and Dong Bo gave her all a special medicine.
Come to think of it, every qiē is fate, and I have to try my luck when I go to the hurricane water cave tomorrow to worship the soul.
**
However, it was said that Zheng Qianjing and his entourage arrived at Shenshan Peak, set up camp on the middle peak, collected many rare medicinal materials, and saw Shen'e Peak and Shenxiu Peak hidden in the vast clouds, and fell into contradictions. It is true that there is a lot of medicine in this place, but before the slave soul bead is released, all the plans cannot be carried out.
Early in the morning, Zheng Qianjing was dressed in green clothes, just out of the tent, and was about to go up the mountain to collect medicine.
Heiyan hurriedly reported: "The Ying family has come to the hurricane cave to sacrifice Ying Rong'er's soul." ”
"How can they go into the valley?" The curved sickle in Hongzhu's hand waved twice in the air, very dissatisfied.
Zheng Qianjing said coldly, "Who are the people here?" ”
Heiyan said: "The guards under the mountain said that the old servant Qiu Bo of the Ying family and the men of the Fan family brought some servants and some items to sacrifice souls. There are four officials traveling with him. ”
"Monitor closely." Zheng Qianjing walked up the mountain.
Yamashita. Qiu Bo and his entourage of more than a dozen people got on four boats and entered the Hurricane Valley.
"Lord Wei has an explanation. When you enter the Three Souls Cave, you must tie a rope. The leader of the first ship commanded in a loud voice.
"Ichiē obey the arrangement of the official mission." Qiu Bo replied.
When the boat arrived outside the hurricane water cave, everyone went into the water and swam into the cave with their heads dǐng sacrifices.
The Moli brothers came in for the first time, and it was really cool inside, and the scenery was strange.
"In front of you is the Three Souls Cave. Please tie a rope around your waist first. There were twenty people in total, and none of them were missing when they went out! Otherwise, that's the end of it. He held his torch and stopped, looking at everyone.
There are many ropes on the ground. Everyone picked up the rope and tied it around their waists, and after some officials checked it for everyone, they sent the head to the head of the difference.
"Sacrifice souls here. No near the water's edge! ”
At the Three Soul Cave, five or six meters away from the water surface, two thick ropes for vigilance were pulled.
Qiu Bo and the others set up the offerings at the rope, and said while crying, "Third Miss." You have to remember to go home and see Lord Hou and Mrs. ......"
"Rong'er. You should remember to go home and check it out. ”
There was a lot of crying in the cave.
The Moli brothers looked at the Yin River while scattering paper. The bright light of the fire illuminates the place in full view.
Qiu Bo glanced at them.
Their eyes darkened, and indeed as Qiu Bo said, there was not a single bloody tongue orchid. The water is already dangerous from a distance, and the geography is strange, no wonder the third lady can't survive here.
Sadly and earnestly engaged for a long time.
"It's been two hours since I came in. It's time to get out. He snapped.
"Third Miss. We went back. Remember to take everyone home. Qiu Bo's eyes were blood-red, his voice was hoarse, he waved at Yin He, and said to Fan Xuewen and the brothers, "Let's go back." ”
The people of the Fan family also made a long gesture to the Yin River, and left here in an orderly manner with the officials.
**
Halfway up the peak, Zheng Qianjing and Hongzhu watched a team of people and horses leave from the bank of the Hurricane River.
"The people of the Ying family are gone." Hongzhu whispered.
Zheng Qianjing did not say anything.
After a long time, Hei Yan ran up sweating profusely and said excitedly, "Sixth Miss." Listening to an official who went in and out of the valley with the people of the Ying family, there was not a single blood tongue in the Three Souls Cave. ”
"How could the official casually mention this?" Zheng Qianjing's eyes rolled and she was puzzled.
"Ying Qiubo collected medicine from the hurricane valley. Someone on the boat asked him why he didn't see the legendary blood tongue in the Three Souls Cave. Ying Qiubo said that the blood tongue grows between the cave walls on the opposite side of the Yin River, and no one has ever picked it, and it is fate to be able to meet across the river. Every spring and autumn, the blood tongue will grow once, but after a few days, the tide will rise at the Three Soul Cave, and the tide will sweep away all the blood tongue, and not a single one will remain in the world. The third lady had an accident, that is, she saw the blood twelf that day, and was fascinated by its beauty, so she had to go into the water to pick flowers, so she was killed. There was a high tide in the cave two days ago, so this time everyone didn't even see a shadow. One of the officials stationed by the river, whom we had bribed, went in with them, and when the soul worshippers had gone, they told Black Wind that there was indeed no shadow of Bloodtongue in the cave. I'm afraid we'll have to wait until next spring. "Black Rock Road.
"Haven't you really picked a blood tongue?" Zheng Qianjing frowned.
"I've never heard of anyone picking it." Black Rock Road.
Hongzhu's face became anxious, "Then tomorrow Kuroki will come back with Yizhi, and it will be useless?" ”
Zheng Qianjing shook her head, "You have to see it with your own eyes to know what to do." If not, we'll go home the day after tomorrow. We'll talk about that next spring. While we still have some time, let's take some more medicine. ”
"That's fine. When we come next spring, we will be well prepared and we can visit Shen'e Peak and Shenxiu Peak. "Black Rock looks at the two mystical foggy peaks to the north.
Anyway, Ying Rong'er is dead. It's important to do your own big things. Zheng Qianjing smiled and walked towards the tent. (To be continued.) )
