Chapter 10:
Bed Bug He looked indifferently at everything that happened in Meifu.
At noon that day, he saw with his own eyes the horse carrying the corpse to the gate of the Mei Mansion. He didn't say a word, and sat quietly under the big tree watching, surrounded by a few of his henchmen.
People's hearts are tortuous and terrifying, as long as there is a slight change, even a slight change, all modern instruments can not accurately detect, not to mention the backward Xiaowangzhuang at that time. Who can tell the thought process? Who can tell the impulse of feelings? Who can tell the motive for the action?
After waiting for the Mei family to go to the river, he looked at the horse and said to his subordinates: "Good horse, good horse!" He praised repeatedly.
His subordinate Zhang Dali stood up, he had big shoulders and a round waist, and his strength was boundless, so he was called Dali. He was able to hold the two-hundred-pound stone lock high above his head, his arms straight and unbent, and his face was full of smiles, as easily as holding a large handful of flowers.
When he saw that the bug had said this, and intended to show himself in front of the crowd, he went over, and put on the reins, and as soon as he turned over and got on his horse, the horse neighed and kicked his hind hooves, and lifted him off.
Zhang Dali wanted to get on the horse again, but the horse twisted around and refused to stand. He was furious, and he pulled out his dagger and stabbed it, and he must let out this evil breath.
The bug hurriedly stopped him, untied the whip from his waist, and whipped his braids three times, and the horse immediately stopped and stood still with its head bowed, not even its tail flicking.
"Boy, this horse travels thousands of miles a day, nicknamed 'A Gust of Wind', and its nature is as fierce as fire, and it can't be ridden without two brushes." The bed bug He said triumphantly, "The three times I gave just now are called the three whips of the overlord, which must be used as a last resort, and cannot be used, because using it too much will hurt the horse's sharpness, and this horse has a bit of humanity."
The bed bug He took the whip, flew on the horse, and knocked lightly, and the horse galloped away, and there was no trace in an instant, only to see a string of smoke and dust rolled up in the distance.
Seeing this, several disciples and grandchildren panicked and hurriedly chased after them, but could they catch up?
......
"Find a fortune teller!" Master Mei commanded everyone by the river.
However, the bed bugs were gone, and it was getting dark, and it was impossible to catch up with them.
The two fools were full of food, and rushed over overnight, and found the remnants of the fire more than ten miles away from the village, as well as the child's ribbon and a little bloodstain, could it be that the fortune teller ate the child alive?
The people in the village had heard of the horrific abduction and trafficking of children and the cooking of food. But it was always just a legend, and it was not confirmed by the government.
There is a legend in the village that when Mrs. Mei went to the thatched house, people passing by the Mei Mansion saw a shadow flashing by, and after a while, holding a bag of something, flashed by and hurriedly slipped away, maybe it was her child. These fortune tellers may be the legendary people of the Holy Child's Church, right? One of the cultivation methods of this cult is to eat a child under the age of three every month in order to increase his strength.
When Mrs. May heard these terrible things, she did not weep, but moved her lips as if she wanted to speak, but she could not say anything. The next day, her black hair suddenly turned gray. Poor mother!
The next morning, the doorkeeper of Meifu opened the door early, and saw Master Mei coming with a bird cage, and greeted: "Morning, master, you walk the bird!" ”
Master Mei sighed and said, "The family is unfortunate, even this thrush is a little wilted, it is really human." ”
The porter also wanted to comfort the master as usual, but when he looked down and found a post thrown on the ground, he reached out and picked it up, and said to Master Mei who had just walked out of the door: "Master, there is a letter here!" ”
Master Mei opened it and looked at it, was shocked, and shouted loudly: "Hurry up, go to church!" ”
The family got up quickly, the men didn't bother to eat breakfast, and the women didn't care about dressing up, so they all went to church. Nearby neighbors also heard the movement and rushed to see the excitement.
When they arrived at the church, they saw the priest praying his morning.
"Father, give me back the child!" Mrs. May shouted hoarsely, completely ignoring the God who was enshrined in front of her.
The iron-hearted old man Mei in people's mouths couldn't help but shed tears of excitement, and shouted the same.
"What child?" The priest asked in surprise, as if he didn't know what was happening in Xiao Wangzhuang.
"My child, your goddaughter, lovely Helen!" Mrs. May said in a supplicating voice.
"Oh, she's upstairs, and this morning, I don't know who sent her to me!" The priest shrugged his shoulders and said lightly.
Mrs. May and Master May could not believe their ears, they rushed upstairs as if they had wings, and then they broke down the door like cannonballs......
The daughter was wearing a red silk shirt and trousers, crawling on the ground barefoot, and the shoes were one at home and the other by the river.
That's right, it's my cute baby with bright red ruddy!
Mrs. May hurriedly picked her up, ready to kiss her all over with the kiss she was eagerly looking forward to!
However, she couldn't believe her eyes!
What she saw in front of her was not a petite and lovely daughter, but an ugly-looking, rough-skinned child, with a little cock smeared black and dirty by the ash on the ground.
Ah, my God, Mrs. May's hand loosened, and she was so frightened that she hurriedly covered her eyes.
She cried out, "Youkai, have turned my daughter into this terrible beast?" ”
The priest hurriedly carried the child over, or else he would have fallen to the ground and died.
Mrs. May stayed there for a long time, not speaking, not panting, and everyone thought she had lost her breath. Suddenly, she shivered all over, kissed the little tiger head shoe all over the place, and cried loudly, not only her heart was broken, but she was really crazy!
