Chapter Thirty-Eight: Recovering Bianliang City
When Niu Er saw me turn around, he turned his head to look out, just like me.
He smiled and said: "The daughter of the Long family, entangled by snakes, became a snake woman, and gave birth to a snake baby." gave birth to a snake, but the surname is dragon, you say it's not strange, you say it's not strange. She has a snake baby in her belly, and the snake baby ......."
He seemed to be quite happy, clapped his hands and said, "The snake baby of the Long family......"
My mind flashed to the attic, the dark egg-like things.
If those who marry in are infertile, then where did the generations of people in Huilong Village come from?
He Gu drove the car in the opposite direction, and everywhere he passed, the roadside was full of people.
When he waited for a slightly quiet place, He Gu stopped the car: "When we find a suitable opportunity, we will go back." ”
Sirens blared in the distance, and the roadside was full of people with flashlights watching the excitement.
It didn't take long for a car to drive that way, and He Gu saw that there were more cars in the past, so he took us in.
When we reached the roadside outside Huilong Village again, the entire village was gone, leaving only a huge pit.
The roadside was full of cars and people.
He Gu didn't stop, just drove the car and took us back to Qin Mipo's house directly.
Along the way, Niu Er kept clapping his hands and singing the song, as if he was very happy, and came to me from time to time and said: "There is a snake baby to be born, a snake baby is about to be born, there has been no snake baby for many years!" ”
He Gu drove the car steadily, and when the car stopped at the door of Qin Mipo's house, the sky was already slightly bright.
Qin Mipo was grinding tofu on the stone grinding edge under the eaves, Niu Er smelled the fragrance of beans, and ran down happily: "Beat tofu, eat mat noodles, tofu is white, filial piety cloth is ......"
I sat in the car and didn't move, just watched the blood-red sunlight rise in the distance.
"What are you going to do in the future?" He Gu looked at the blood sun and said in a deep voice: "Your body is broken, and the snake coffin may be useless, so it won't look for you for the time being." But you can't leave the town, I'll take Niu Er back to ask Tianzong. ”
"You and Mo Xiu ......" I reached out and scratched the glass window, my fingers breaking through the fog, leaving a sinuous snake shape: "Deliberately let the silk snake in my grandmother's body attack, right?" ”
He Gu paused, held the hand of the steering wheel, flicked his five fingers, and patted the steering wheel: "I didn't know it would be like that, I just wanted to ......"
I pulled the door open and got out of the car.
This proves that Mo Xiu not only used the means in the cave, but also really used his grandmother.
For Ho Ku, I am just a scourge, and what they do is right in their eyes.
Niu Er was already happy to help Qin Mipo push the mill and beckoned to me: "Long Ling, come and help me feed the mill." ”
On the cool bed in front of the house, Chen Quan's father and son were still lying on it, but the snake that came out of Chen Quan's head seemed to have crawled out, and the snake's head was hanging softly on the edge of the cool bed, as if he wanted to escape, but he was killed by Xun.
I walked over, took a look, and reached out to probe the sniff of their father and son, which was faint but still there.
When I entered the house and glanced at my grandmother, I still stretched out my hand slightly.
But that finger sat under my grandmother's nose for a long time, and I didn't want to take it back, I just wanted to wait a little longer, wait a little longer......
"There was no pain, and I walked peacefully." Qin Mipo stood at the door, her gaze falling on my wrist: "What about the snake king?" ”
My eyes fell on my empty wrist, and Mo Xiu said that he had something to do, probably to settle the woman in the attic.
My fingers hooked under my grandmother's nose again, and my hand reached the tip of my cold nose, and I slowly sat down and turned my grandmother's body over.
I lifted my clothes and reached down my spine, and this time no matter how much I pressed, there was no snake arching underneath.
Qin Mipo took a set of shrouds from the cabinet and gave it to me: "This is for myself, will you wear it?" ”
I looked at the shroud, stretched out my hand and touched it, raised my eyes to look at Qin Mipo, and my voice was choked: "Huilong Village is gone......"
It's just the time when the fireworks go into the sky, and the whole village suddenly falls......
Qin Mipo looked at me: "Where is the snake king?" ”
I chuckled, in fact, from beginning to end, it was not me who Qin Mipo wanted to help, but Mo Xiu.
It turns out that I really don't have anything, I can't rely on anything.
I looked outside the house, and the police started to come to the door again.
Only this time, Qin Mipo hurriedly stepped forward to deal with it, saying that my grandmother went last night, and she and He Gu had been watching here.
The police came in to confirm it, and one of them was familiar, the one who told my dad at my house that day not to sell snake wine.
He looked at me with heavy eyes: "If there is any news of your parents, you must tell us." You still can't leave the town for the time being, and you have something to report to us. ”
After the police left, I looked at my grandmother on the bed, got up to get water, and then helped her wipe her body.
He Gu was still talking to Niu Er outside, Niu Er just laughed and kept shaking his head.
It is estimated that he wants to take Niu Er back to ask Tianzong, the three souls and seven spirits of the village guards are incomplete, but the natural cow ghosts and snakes are not invaded, Niu Er seems to be a little different, maybe they need such a person.
When I finished wiping my body, Qin Mipo taught me how to wear a shroud and said to me: "Those people in Huilong Village are going to die, and when they blew up the coffin with the burial and divided the gold and silver inside, the snake coffin was already angry. ”
"It's just waiting for you to grow up, that's why it didn't touch those people." Qin Mipo helped me put on my underwear, looked at me and said, "If you put on the snake coffin that day, the people who returned to Long Village would have died that day, and the power of the snake coffin would have been strengthened." So it's right that the snake king doesn't want you to suppress the snake coffin. ”
I numbly helped my grandmother comb her hair, originally Qin Mipo would never mention this to me, but now that she has said it, I feel that it doesn't matter if I listen or not.
There are several layers of shroud, what does each layer represent, Qin Mipo said to me patiently, although I listened, but I didn't seem to listen.
After dressing, I took the hairpin handed by Qin Mipo and helped my grandmother tie her hair.
"It must be cremated, although the silk snake in her body is dead, if it is not cremated, it may ......" Qin Mipo said this, coughing again.
I knew I was going to be cremated, but looking at my grandmother's face, I was a little reluctant.
Coffins or anything are actually not needed, and when I hear the word "coffin" now, I feel my heart tremble.
When the fragrance of soy milk came from outside, Niu Er cheered even louder: "Dragon Spirit, Dragon Spirit, drink soy milk, drink soy milk." ”
I glanced at my grandmother, took a shouba to cover her face, and got up to go out.
He Gu seemed to be quite patient, drinking soy milk while persuading Niu Er: "We have something more delicious, the wild fruits in the mountains are very sweet, you can play as you want." ”
When Niu Er saw it, he immediately ran out and handed it to me with half-drunk soy milk: "Long Ling, drink soy milk?" ”
I looked at him and smiled, and then turned to look at He Gu: "Please help me contact the crematorium." ”
As he spoke, he took out all the money in his pocket and handed it to He Gu: "This is cash, I still have a little in my mobile phone, and I will transfer it to you." The 200,000 yuan given to the Chen family, I will find a way to give it to you! ”
I took all the money from under the pots, but I didn't spend much money when I ran around.
He Gu was stunned for a moment, but he still took the money and made a phone call.
Niu Er drank the soy milk and went to help Qin Mipo press the tofu.
When the crematorium car took my grandmother away, Ho Koo asked me, "Do you want to go?" ”
I shook my head: "You can help me get the urn back." ”
I don't want to see that scene of a fiery snake engulfing people in an instant.
Just as I watched the crematorium car drive away, I was just sitting under the eaves when I felt a dark shadow flash around me.
Mo Xiu sat next to me, holding a stone cup in his hand, looked at me and said, "Borrow a cup of your blood." ”
I looked up at him, and his face seemed to be anxious.
Since the snake coffin wants the woman in the attic to be buried with her, even if Mo Xiu forcibly takes her away, I'm afraid it will be as uncomfortable as Liu Longting, right?
I pulled the razor out of my pocket, ready to slash my wrist.
"Not so." Mo Xiu shook his head.
I turned my head to look at him.
But he said in a deep voice: "It is only useful to pass the blood of the Lao Palace in the palm of your hand and carry the fire of your heart." ”
I nodded, and the razor slashed across my palm, and in a few moments the blood fell into the stone cup.
Mo Xiu seemed to be very nervous, holding the stone cup tightly.
The stone cup was not large, and the blood was full in a few moments.
Just as Mo Xiu was about to leave with the stone cup in his hand, I stopped him: "Mo Xiu." ”
Mo Xiu turned his head to look at me, his eyes still irritated and anxious.
"You go first, and when you're done, can you tell me who that woman in the attic is?" I wiped the blood from the razor on my clothes.
Holding his palms tightly, he looked at Mo Xiu and said with a wry smile: "Anyway, Huilong Village is gone, and I still have no use for the snake coffin, I should be able to know these things, right?" ”
