Chapter 9 When has God been merciful?
Long silence, wordless silence.
Su Lichen felt like a fish out of the water, unable to breathe, and about to suffocate. Sitting on the ground weakly, staring blankly at the green mountains outside the door.
"Sixteen years ago, the Holy Sect Spirit Snake made Fang Shu and his male disciple Wu Yan run errands in Chengdu Mansion, and happened to encounter a thief who kidnapped and plundered a girl. Naturally, the two of them couldn't ignore it and chased after them.
The lewd thief was extremely treacherous, not only separated the two in the process of pursuit, but also secretly cast an obscene medicine red candle on the other party's uncle. The red candle is so evil that women who are poisoned by it often lose their minds and only want to have fun with men.
In times of crisis, a young chivalrous man fights a thief. It's a pity that Uncle Fang had a medicinal seizure, and it was irreparably a big mistake.
Upon learning that Uncle Fang had lost his innocence, the old sect leader was furious and wanted to put Uncle Fang to death. Uncle Wuyan begged bitterly, saying that he had always admired Uncle Fang and coveted her beauty. drunk and promiscuously, drugged and violated her, and took the blame on himself.
Uncle Wuyan was pushed down the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave, suffered from the devouring of ten thousand snakes, and was not at peace after death. Uncle Fang was abolished from poison skills, and three years after his birth, he was poisoned and died.
Do you know why the old sect leader is so angry? That's because Uncle Fang Shu Fang is the Holy Maiden of Huashan set by the old sect leader. ”;
Listening to Su Lichen's plain words, he walked motionless, like a wooden man. As soon as he heard the poisonous punishment of the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, his body trembled involuntarily.
"Brother Su! Please, kill me. Don't throw me into the den of the serpents, I don't want to suffer that sin. "The face was terrible when he passed away.
After struggling in his heart for a long time, Su Lichen stood up and walked out of the door with difficulty: "It's over, you go, the farther you go, the better!" ”
I thought I wasn't afraid of death, but I was afraid of the mouth of the poisonous snake in the Ten Thousand Snake Cave, and it was creepy just to imagine. stood up with great effort and looked at Su Lichen hesitantly;
"If I leave like this, what should you do, Brother Su?"
Su Lichen slowly closed his eyes, and his voice was a little erratic: "Me? I don't know anything. ”
Take a closer look inside the house, and then look at the courtyard. Except for the pair of evil porcelain vases, it seems that there is nothing of its own.
Putting the porcelain vase close to his chest, he subconsciously inserted the blood-stained short sword into his waist, and was a little dazed for a while. Finally, he walked into the boudoir of the checkered grid, turned out a pile of broken silver from the fat powder box, and walked out.
Su Lichen's figure was a little sluggish, and he didn't know what to say when he passed by, but he just arched his hand slightly: "Brother Lichen, take care!" ”
Su Lichen didn't turn around, nor did he speak. Just arched his hand diagonally.
I didn't take a few steps after I walked the road, but Su Lichen's deep voice came from behind me: "Never tell people, the antidote is often the poison." ”
After passing for a while, he didn't look back, so naturally he couldn't see Su Lichen's guilty bow and didn't dare to look at his departing back.
Only when you run away or disappear does you have a chance to cover up the matter.
A piece of grass and trees, a mountain and a valley, slowly fell behind him, as if becoming illusory. Turning around, he looked into the depths of the mountain.
There are the medicine fields he has taken care of, the yards he has tidied up; There is a kitchen where he cooks, a stream for laundry; There is the bright moon on the top of the mountain, the gentle breeze, and the figure that makes him suffer, but he is willing to leave;
It all became dreamlike and unreal. But the residual temperature of his body made him feel like a fire about last night, and he couldn't let go of his desire to die for a long time.
Forget it, forget it, it's a dream. Now I only have the desire to go home.
The believers met on the mountain road, both men and women, all had excited smiles on their faces, full of longing for the upcoming Huashan Festival. No one, no one paid attention to him, the humble medicine slave.
The old man guarding the mountain gate smiled meaninglessly at the passing by, and let him go.
There are no fugitives in the Five Holy Sects, never. One is either an honest return to the mountain, and a poisonous death becomes a pile of white bones.
The town down the hill, he vaguely remembers. Find the station, get on the stagecoach, and you can leave. It turns out that leaving is so simple.
"Little Lang! Where are you going?" A woman from the Miao family, who was boldly dressed and exuded a mature style, blocked the way.
I didn't dare to look at the large snow-white on the woman's chest, so I lowered my head and replied in a low voice: "Xichang County." ”
The woman pinched Lu Li's cheeks very boldly: "This little Ah Lang with fine skin and tender flesh is not like a cub in the mountains." Little Lang! What are you doing in Xichang County? Why don't your sister take you up the mountain and see the lively Huashan Festival, can you be your sister's best man? ”
Seeing the presumptuous smile on the woman's face, she was angry and anxious when she passed by, but she couldn't break free, so she had to lower her body and beg: "This sister, I have an urgent matter when I go to Xichang County, please let me go." ”
"Hee-hee! Such a handsome little Lang. My sister likes it very much. Why don't we go to the forest and be my sister's best man?" the woman pointed to the mountain forest next to her, smiling seductively.
Lu Lu's face turned red, and he was very annoyed, so he pulled out the tiger skin of Fang Gege: "I am the medicine boy of the Five Holy Sect Spirit Snake Envoy Fang Gege, and I went to Xichang County to do business on her orders. If it is delayed, we cannot afford it. Sister, don't tease me anymore. ”
"Haha, hahaha! Sister, I have been out of the mountain for less than two years, and Gege's girl actually found such a handsome medicine slave. Gege's little girl has also grown up. ”;
The woman laughed for a while, and made a fun teasing way: "Coincidentally, sister, I am the senior sister of Fang Gege, and I can be regarded as the master of Spirit Snake Valley, do you dare to stop my words?" ”
Lu Lu sighed in his heart: "I am a dignified man, do you really want to be humiliated by this woman!" ”
"Sister feud! What are you doing? News came from the eagles in the mountains. A man shouted from afar.
Sister Qiu slapped the shoulder of the road hard: "Coward!" Is it true that my sister will eat you? After saying that, he left with a smile.
I was relieved to be on the road, but fortunately there was a savior.
Before people enter the town, the savior becomes the killing star.
The road was stopped, in addition to the sister feud, there was also the man who called her.
Sister Qiu looked up and down the road very curiously: "Is this little Ah Lang who destroyed my Spirit Snake Valley Holy Relic Soul Devouring Flute?" , why do you still act like you're fine. ”
It's a little inexplicable to get on the road.
The man was very impatient, and said expressionlessly: "What are you doing with so much nonsense!" The sect leader has an order, whether he lives or dies, and throws it into the Ten Thousand Snake Cave as food for the spiritual snake. ”
I don't know what holy things are, what soul eater flutes. He only knew that the Ten Thousand Snakes Cave himself would never go, dead or alive.
Before the two of them could react, they had already rushed into the mountain forest on the side of the road.
Sister Qiu shook her head very regretfully: "Poor little Ah Lang! Heaven has no way to go, and hell has no door to rush into. Is it possible to enter the Heartless Ridge? ”
Unhurriedly, he caught up with the man.
The branches whipped mercilessly on the face, and the thorns cruelly cut through the clothes and the skin. He didn't care about it, but rushed desperately into the depths of the forest.
When he was tired, when he wanted to stop and breathe a sigh of relief, the bold and enthusiastic song of the woman always sounded behind him.
I have been in the mountains for more than a year, and I have heard mountain songs when I have passed. Feng Yao has sung, Fang Gege has sung, Wu Ya sometimes drinks, and occasionally comes to a few words. At that time, I always listened to it with a smile when I passed by, and I thought it was very interesting and beautiful. But now behind him, the woman's mountain song is a life-urging note for him.
His tongue sticked out, and he kicked his breath widely. This reminds me of the hunting dogs of the hunters of Tianmen Mountain, when they run wildly, just like they are now.
Soon after the woman's song sounded, there began to be a mountain song in the mountains and forests. Singing and answering, echoing each other from afar, and finally more and more, no less than ten places.
The song of the mountain is like a net, slowly encircling the road. However, they are not in a hurry to come, and when they do, they are like dying prey, and it is difficult to escape their round-up.
I fell headlong into a mud puddle, and I couldn't move anymore when I was on the road. One breath makes the lungs tear and pain.
Are you going to die? I don't know if I was bitten by poisonous insects or torn apart by wild beasts, and I don't care if I get on the road. He just wanted to close his eyes and go to sleep.
The morning sun shines through the clouds and proudly dyes them bright red, announcing that the day of its domination has arrived.
The morning dew washed the leaves and returned to the earth, dripping down the cheeks of the roaders. Like tears, saddening the child's miserable fate.
He opened his eyes and rolled the dew into his mouth greedily with his tongue. There was a chill in my throat, and I regained some vitality. glanced at the sachet on his waist, dragged his sore legs, and walked towards the sun.
The urging song began to sound again, but after the road, he was no longer afraid, but walked firmly to the heights, until he heard the sound of "coaxing" water behind the mountain.
There is no way out, under the cliff is a rushing and violent river, and the figure of the chasing person can be faintly seen behind him.
"Oh my God! What unpardonable evil deeds have I done on my way, and you are going to drive me to such a dead end. "The road is inexplicable, sad and inexplicable.
The red sun rises and spreads ten thousand golden rays of light to the mountains and rivers.
There was no response to the lamentation of the road.
looked at those gradually clear figures, smiling like cats and mice, and swore in his heart: "If there is an afterlife, I will never be a slave, and I will never let people chase after dogs again, and there is nowhere to escape." ”
Slowly close your eyes and close your heart. But in my mind, I saw the face of the checkered with tears sliding through it, and the desperate look in his eyes.
With an indescribable goodbye in my heart, I jumped off the cliff after passing away.
