CHAPTER XXV. 3

Lu San came back in the evening of the next day, handed over the two hard oceans to Bai Jiaxuan, and then approached the side of the fairy grass, and cursed loudly and innocently: "Neither of the two sea beasts is here!" Xiaowen went to Hankou to receive arms, saying that it would take half a month to come back. Lingling couldn't even ask about the trace, her second aunt said that Lingling hadn't flashed for more than half a year, and she couldn't guess where to go! Ten are not in Xi'an...... You, you don't think about these two sea beasts now! You've given enough to them, they owe you, and what do you still think about those two sea beasts? That's my idea, I won't mention Heiwa until I die......" Xiancao closed her eyes when she listened, and a clear tear rolled out of the corner of her eye: "I know, I can't see those two babies!"

"I can't see any of the relatives I want to see, and those I don't want to see can come to the door by myself!" Xiancao suddenly opened the quilt and sat up, muttering clearly. Bai Jiaxuan also sat up when she heard the sound, holding the fairy grass with both hands, she was very surprised, she couldn't even turn over when she was lying on the kang in the past two days, how could she sit up with a bone? He couldn't spare his hand to light the lamp, and deliberately asked in a light tone, "Which nasty ghost broke into the door?" Xiancao said in a straight voice: "Xiao'e! Black baby, that rotten and dirty daughter-in-law! As soon as she entered our yard, she took off her shirt and let me see her injuries. There is a bloody hole in the front chest, just at the root of the left breast; After turning around, there was a bloody hole in his heart. I was weaving cloth, and I was so frightened that I threw the shuttle to the ground......" Bai Jiaxuan comforted her and said, "Your body is weak and you have nightmares!" Then he felt the fire and lit the paper, blew out the flames, and lit the oil lamp. After the light was turned on, the fairy grass fell softly on the kang with an "oh" sound. Bai Jiaxuan squatted on the kang in front of the oil lamp and smoked until the sky was bright, and at dawn, the fairy grass swallowed. Bai Jiaxuan did not report the funeral to any relatives near and far, and he did not even inform his relatives and relatives who hid in the city and the mountains, as well as the people of Xiancao's mother's family. He found some nephews and grandnephews, and buried her in a grave pit. He poured three pounds of wine in front of the heaved tomb, and said on crutches, "If I can survive the plague, I will rebuild the tomb and stand a stone monument for you and sing a great play!" For now, I can only take care of the living first......"

There was no tranquility in the house, but Bai Jiaxuan didn't feel lonely. Before he walked into the courtyard, his ears seemed to be ringing with the croaking of the fairy grass moving the loom in the bright room of the upper room; When he walked into the yard, he saw shuttles sandwiched between the white and blue warp threads on the loom, and the uncut plaid cloth stacked under the sitting, as if he felt that the fairy grass was taking the weft or going to the thatched house in the backyard; He went into the back room, where the winding BMX was parked at his feet, and the latch of the back door was dead; It was only now that he felt a terrible loneliness and loneliness. He ran into the kitchen on crutches, poured water into the pot, stuffed firewood under the stove, and had to pull the bellows himself if he wanted to drink tea.

He put the teapot on the stone table, set down two teacups, and then walked out of the street door and into the courtyard of the horse, where he saw Lu San using a long-handled broom to remove debris. "Third brother! Come on, come with me!" His voice was very loud, like shouting to someone a hundred and a half steps away, but in fact, Lu San was just a few steps away with his back and sweeping the floor. Lu San thought there was something important, so he threw down the broom and followed Bai Jiaxuan out of the horse number, and then walked into the street door, and asked repeatedly, "What's the matter?" Why don't you speak?" Bai Jiaxuan walked with a heavy foot, and the walls in the room echoed continuously. When he walked into the courtyard, Bai Jiaxuan turned over and waved his hand and said, "What's the matter?" What's the big deal now? Please have tea, that's it! Sit down and see if the tea I have boiled tastes right?" Lu San saw the teapot and teacup placed on the stone table under the tree, and his look of surprise suddenly relaxed, and he understood Jiaxuan's intention to speak loudly, cough loudly and walk with aggravated steps, which was the spirit of fighting against fate without hesitation. He couldn't help but be infected, took the teacup handed over by Jiaxuan, took a sip, and sighed heartily: "Good tea, good tea!" It tastes so serious! I didn't see that you still have this unique job of boiling tea......" The two of them sat on both sides of the stone table, handed each other and talked freely, all sighing. Bai Jiaxuan asked: "Third child, what are you eating today?" I'll cook you whatever you want to eat. Ha! You can taste my brother's cooking again!" Lu San also smiled and said loudly: "Whatever." I eat what you do. Bai Jiaxuan shook his head sharply: "Ah, third brother! You're such a big shelf!' What's the name of the rice? It sounds like you are very easy-going and easy to serve, but in fact, it is difficult to call a daughter-in-law, what kind of food can you cook to meet the taste of grandpa and grandma?" Lu San didn't really care: "I mean, I don't think anything I cook." I've never been picky in my life!" Bai Jiaxuan continued: "You are a picky eater and useless. My best meal is the old owl's head!" Lu San laughed: "Men in the world will clip the head of the old eagle, and so will I." In fact, the old owl head is delicious and hunger-resistant, and it is easy to make, and some batter is sandwiched into a tower with chopsticks and put into the pot. Let's take turns and eat the old eagle's head every day. ”

At night, Bai Jiaxuan often closes the back door first, then locks the street door, walks into the horse with a hookah, sits on the edge of Lu San's kang, smokes hookah after pot, watches Lu San mix grass for cattle and horses over and over again, and says: "Third brother, put out a fold and play wow!" Lu San didn't shirk either, and roared against the trough gang. first folded the impassioned "Yuanmen Chop", and then put out a piece of "Farewell Kiln". Jiaxuan listened hotly, slipped down from the edge of the kang, stood on the ground with a hookah and sang, and it was even more tragic and flying "Escape from the Country". After singing until he had fed the livestock three troughs of grass, Bai Jiaxuan walked out of the horse with a hookah and went back to the house to sleep.

At noon that day, Bai Jiaxuan sandwiched a pot of old eagle heads, ran into the horse, and shouted while sweating: "Third brother eats." Lu San didn't respond, and sat straight on the edge of the kang motionless. Bai Jiaxuan shouted again: "Third brother is eating, are you deaf?" Lu San suddenly tilted his head, looked at him obliquely, and let out a woman's shrill and playful voice: "Just call your third brother!" Why don't you call me?" Bai Jiaxuan was stunned: "You are the third brother!" Who else do you want me to call?" Lu San shook his head: "I'm not your third brother." Bai Jiaxuan took two steps closer and looked at Lu San carefully, his sharp tone, flirtatious eyes and the cowardly movement of tilting his head and side face were obviously not Lu San's habits. Bai Jiaxuan couldn't help but shudder, and asked in an aggravated majestic tone: "You are not the third brother, who are you?" Lu San twisted his waist and shook his head and said, "Don't you even recognize me?" You can recognize it if you look closely. Bai Jiaxuan's hair stood upside down with a puff on the top of his head, and his whole body seemed to be poured with a bucket of cold water to tighten his muscles and bones, Lu San's current cowardly posture and frivolous tone made him suddenly think of Xiao'e. Bai Jiaxuan suddenly raised his hand, slammed it into Lu San's face, and scolded fiercely: "I'm afraid you're not going to be able to?" Lu San suddenly used his usual heavy voice: "Jiaxuan, what are you doing beating me?" What did I do, you beat me?" As he spoke, he jumped off the kang and pounced on the opposite side of Jiaxuan, blushing in anger and roaring thickly. Bai Jiaxuan stood there, I don't know if Lu San was lost just now or if he was confused? So he apologized again and again, and dragged the angry Lusan to dinner.

The master and servant walked into the courtyard, and Lu Sanjing sat on the low stool next to the stone table, waiting for Jiaxuan to bring him food. Since Xiancao's death, Lu San has always cooked with Jiaxuan, and he can't bear to serve rice and pour tea for himself like the owner with a pot on his back. Now he sat at the stone table with his waist straight, like a courteous and courteous guest, accepting the service of his master with a restrained and polite manner. Bai Jiaxuan bent his waist, leaned on crutches in one hand, and walked out of the kitchen with a rice bowl in the other hand and handed it to Lu San, and told him: "Eat, eat, eat, eat." He turned around and brought himself a bowl again, sat down opposite Lu San, put down his crutches and ate it. After Lu San finished eating a bowl of rice, he slammed the bowl onto the stone table, and buckled the chopsticks to the bowl, Huo Di jumped up, laughed opposite Bai Jiaxuan, leaned forward and backward with laughter, and jumped up to the steps of the hall and shouted: "Ha yes, it's worth it, I'm worth it!" Mr. Patriarch will serve me a meal! The patriarch and I sit at the same table and eat! It's worth it, it's worth it, I'm worth it! What am I, patriarch? I'm a ** and a bad! Patriarch, you serve food to the ** rotten mother-in-law, don't you think you have wronged your noble status......" Bai Jiaxuan stared at Lu San's big action of raising his hands with his feet, and threw the remaining half bowl of rice to the ground, the bowl slices and rice soup splashed everywhere, and he picked up his crutches from the stone table and chased Lu San. The deer dodged and dodged, jumped and jumped out of the yard and ran into the village alley. Bai Jiaxuan panted and chased outside the door, and asked a few young men to twist Lu Sanqiang into the horse, buckle a dustpan to his head, and struck it with a peach tree sliver, making a bang-bang sound. Lu San suddenly overturned the dustpan and jumped up and shouted: "What are you people doing tossing me?" With puzzled eyes, he looked at the men and women gathered around the horses. Bai Jiaxuan judged from his voice and look that the real Lu San was alive again.

Bai Jiaxuan returned to the west room of the hall to lie down for an afternoon break, Lu San's strange behavior still did not break his living habits, at most he was confused with a bag of cigarettes, jumped off the kang and pulled a family weaving hand towel to the water tank to pour water, wiped his face and eyes, felt relaxed, and then scooped up his crutches and went out of the door, bent his waist and went to the south of the village. After walking through the long ox cart road in Bailuyuan, we entered Nanshan in the evening and arrived at Niujiewo Village, where there are only three or five households. Bai Jiaxuan saw a wooden house with wooden walls in the back ditch, a woman who looked like a man sat under the loofah trellis in front of the wooden house and smoked dry tobacco, the two-foot-long loofah hung down from the wooden scaffold, the woman was lean and thin, with a dark face, but she was very tall, with a flat chest, stretched out her slender arms, and simmered tobacco powder into the long tobacco pouch. The pipe was a purple-red goji berry with the knots of the tata. Bai Jiaxuan stopped and arched. The woman didn't wait for him to speak, and asked coldly, "Which village?" After Bai Jiaxuan answered, the woman asked again, "What's the trouble?" Bai Jiaxuan explained the crazy situation of Lu San's ghost possession, and the woman waved the long pole pipe and said, "Go back." Bai Jiaxuan turned around and walked back the way he came, he knew that the ghost hunter was recuperating in the wooden house at the moment, and he had to go on the road in the quiet of the night when the chicken did not crow and the dog did not bite.

Lu San went straight from the back of the night to the dark night. His overly flexible eyes and cowardly demeanor will surprise anyone when they see it, which is completely different from the impression of Lu San's steady and serious attitude in the past. He jumped from the horse horn to the soil field, and then jumped back from the horse field, and addressed the men, women, and children gathered in the horse number and the soil field: "Who did I provoke when I went to Bailu Village? I didn't steal a piece of cotton from others, I didn't steal a handful of wheat straw and firewood, I didn't scold an elder, and I didn't poke a doll, why can't Bailu Village allow me to live? I'm not good, I'm not clean, after all I'm a **. But Heiwa doesn't dislike me, I live with Heiwa. I couldn't live in the village, so Heiwa and I moved to live in a rotten kiln outside the village. The patriarch didn't allow me to enter the ancestral hall, and I didn't dare to go, so why didn't I be allowed to go? Big, you don't recognize me when I enter your house, I didn't take a handful of rice or an artemisia stick when I got out of your house, why do you want to stab me with a shuttle dart blade? Big, you're so ruthless...... "Bailu Village and neighboring villages came to see the lively people, and only then did they know the cause of Xiao'e's death, and sighed greatly. People buckled the dustpan to Lu San's head and beat it with peach wood strips, Lu San suddenly returned to his usual steady and serious appearance, rolled his eyes a little dull, and asked inexplicably: "What are you doing here?" What's so exciting here? Are you too busy to do? I'm still busy!" As he spoke, he pushed up the trolley to load the soil washer. When he had just filled a cart of dirt, he threw down the shovel and went crazy again. Everyone buckled the dustpan and beat it with peach strips, tossing it several times until the night was quiet, and many people were tired of watching it and went home.

As soon as Bai Jiaxuan stepped into the horse, Lu San jumped from his feet to the kang with a scream: "Patriarch, where are you going?" You're loose and running away! You made me so miserable, do you want to live? I'm going to make you live like a dog, or a pig!" Bai Jiaxuan was on crutches in one hand, raised his head to look at Lu San who was standing on the kang with his teeth and claws, and said coldly: "You are a bad thing, I don't regret treating you." You're a bad seed when you're alive, and you're not a good ghost when you're dead. You will kill me immediately, and I will go with you to the Yin family to fight a lawsuit. If the king of Hades says that you, the **, did the right thing to sell yourself in Yangshi Lahan, I will go up to Daoshan and I will go down to the oil pot, and I won't even blink an eye!" Lu San suddenly changed his slick tone when he heard this: "Oh, you say it beautifully!" I'm too cheap to kill you. I will make you live like a dog, crawling and eating human, drinking bad water, and learning how to bark. When I'm tired of seeing enough, I'll push you under the wheel, let the car run over the horse, and let the wolf eat the dog and gnaw the ......" Bai Jiaxuan sneered and said: "Why are you tossing me, I don't care, what method do you use to make me die, I don't care, no matter if I drown and hang, fall to death, burn to death, and crush to death, it's just a death!" It's good if I'm dead, I have to go to Lord Yama to judge and see who goes up to Daoshan and who gets off the oil pot, and who tosses whom! I won't allow you to enter the ancestral hall while I'm alive, and I still can't tolerate you as a goblin when I'm dead. Regardless of the yang world or the yin world, there is me without you, with you without me. What the hell do you have to do it, I'll wait. Lu San grinned and said, "I want to pinch the old and young of Bailu Village to death, leaving you and your third brother to suffer...... Lu San just said this, and suddenly screamed, "Woo it's terrible!" You slippery head, you invited the judge to come, the net is on, I was fooled......" Lu San jumped down from the kang and rushed towards the door, then turned back from the door and rushed towards the window, and then folded back from the window and dived into the horse circle; The red horse kicked angrily, and Lu San burrowed under the cow's belly and shrank into a ball.
