Chapter 143: Who Are You?
There was a bowl of white rice on the floor at the door, very clean, it seemed to have just been put away, but when I looked over, the house was a mess, with pots and pans scattered on the floor, and weeds that had grown tall, as if no one had cleaned it up for a long time.
"Anyone?"
I asked tentatively.
No one responded.
We continued to walk inside, the crisp sound of stepping on the dry leaves under our feet.
At this moment, the door of the house not far away suddenly opened, and I saw a man standing straight at the door, motionless, staring straight at me with a pair of cold eyes on his expressionless face.
"Who are you?"
He asked.
Yan Xun took a step forward and said unceremoniously: "Hand over the baby, I may consider making a move on you!" ”
I wondered if she had said it too soon, but the moment the words fell, the man had an extra dagger in his hand for some reason, and a light flashed in the cold night.
I don't know where I offended him, but this man actually took me as a target, and rushed to him with a hideous face.
"Bang!"
Seeing that the dagger was about to plunge into my chest, Yan Xun kicked the man in the stomach, and the man was kicked out by her force, falling to the ground and spitting blood.
"People who want to move me, I'm afraid you're still a little tender!"
As he spoke, Yan Xun strode over, grabbed the man's collar, and said disdainfully.
Just as he raised his fist and wanted to teach him another lesson, the white-robed little brother spoke.
"It's almost done, after all, it's a big living person, how can I stand your strength like an ox!"
Yan Xun glared at him, pouted, reluctantly threw the man aside, and then walked back angrily.
"Say, where is the baby?"
I stepped forward, looked at him condescendingly, and asked.
The man lay on the ground, a mouthful of blood spat out of his mouth, and smiled at me with a mouthful of bloody huraca teeth, his laughter echoing in the cold wind, and my ears itched to listen to it.
"I'm not going to let you take it, it's mine...... It's my ......" "It won't help you to keep this kid with you, he's already dead!" ”
The white-robed little brother retorted.
Suddenly, the man got up from the ground, looked around in a panic, grabbed his hair with both hands, and shouted in his mouth: "No, you liar, it's fine, nothing at all!" ”
As he spoke, he staggered towards the house.
We hurried in with him, and as soon as we stepped in, the whole room was dark and damp, and it was difficult for people with rancid smell to breathe, and I frowned, and quickly raised my hand to cover my nose.
Just as I raised my hand, I saw the mark enlarge again, and half of my arm was almost swallowed away, and I could clearly feel that something was wrong with my hands, and my fingers were out of my control.
"Ahh
I quickly pressed my right hand with my left hand, and the growing tingling sensation made me exclaim.
"Give me the baby!"
Yan Xun on the side saw a thing wrapped in a quilt on the side of the bed, and walked over to grab it.
However, there is still a certain gap between the distance between her and the man to the bedside.
The man twisted around, picked up the child on the bed and hugged him in his arms, and the next second, Yan Xun's fist slammed into him, and the man lowered his head and endured it, without the slightest intention of letting go.
Seeing me fall to the ground in pain, the white-robed little brother had no choice but to fly out of his hand and prick a silver needle into the man's neck, and the man suddenly stopped and did not move.
Yan Xun took advantage of this opportunity and quickly picked up the baby in his arms and handed it to the white-robed little brother.
The baby's whole body was purple, and its dry skin was sunken, and it was obvious that it had become a mummy.
The white-robed little brother laid the baby flat on the table, stretched out his hands and made a clockwise mark in mid-air, and kept chanting the incantation against his mouth.
I could hear him reciting the mantra of the afterlife, specially used to send the unjust souls who remained in the world and refused to leave.
As the white-robed little brother read it over and over again, the quilt on the table suddenly flashed with a little light, and the baby turned into a bright light and gradually floated away outside the room.
At the same time, the marks on my arm were fading little by little, and the pain was slowly starting to ease.
After reading it, the white-robed little brother returned the quilt wrapped in the baby to the man, and took the silver needle from his neck.
Poof, the man knelt on his knees, he choked with the quilt in his arms, and after a long time, he opened his mouth and said: "The day I met her, it happened to be when he married Lao Wang, I was deeply attracted by her beauty, and I couldn't extricate myself, but I am a person who doesn't like to express, so I have been burying this emotion in my heart, and finally one day, she told me that I couldn't stand the life here and wanted to commit suicide, at that moment, I had the impulse to take her out of here and escape from the man's clutches, but I didn't think about it, I lost her that night! ”
Looking at the desperate expression on the man's face, I may not be able to understand the emotion he is saying, but I have to say that he is indeed more like a gentleman than that old king, at least he will not beat his beloved woman.
When we returned to the courtyard, it was already the next morning, and I hadn't slept well for several nights in a row, and at this moment, I felt that I could cultivate immortals.
Because I was going to make a shuttle, I didn't have time to catch up on sleep after I went back, so I was forcibly pulled to the station by Yanxun.
"Wait, lad!"
The uncle behind me stopped me.
"This is a specialty of our village, you can take it with you and eat it on the road!"
Uncle trotted all the way over and stuffed a large bag of air-dried beef into my arms.
I was a little embarrassed to accept it, and besides, the beef was quite heavy, so I could say that it would take a few kilograms, so I quickly pushed it back.
"Uncle, I'm so embarrassed, I've lived in your house for a long time, and you still take care of us, it's still ......" Before I finished speaking, I saw the greedy Yan Yan next to me come out of nowhere, I took a fancy to the beef jerky at a glance, grabbed it from my hand, and said with a smile: "Thank you, uncle, uncle is the best!" We're going to catch a car, and we'll come back to you when we're free! ”
After saying that, she grabbed my arm and walked forward with the beef jerky in her arms.
The three of us finally got on the shuttle bus and prepared to go to a place called "Sipin County".
Tumbling in the car, I actually slept very soundly, and when I woke up, I had already arrived at the gate of the county seat.
"Sipin County has arrived, hurry up and ...... if you want to get off" A flight attendant patted the back of the seat and spoke a dialect version of Mandarin.
