Chapter 37: The Culprit
"She? Your sister? Zhao Zimai was about to step forward to find Baotian, and when he heard Amy's words, his feet did not freeze, and his heart was more like being beaten desperately by countless drumsticks. He slowly turned his head to look at Susan, who was standing in place like a sculpture, and his voice trembled before he forced his fear to say two words, "It's you." ”
Susan was standing by the baby tower, very close to it, her hair scorched by the fire, but she didn't notice it. Her blue eyes were completely dimmed, pitch black, not even the whites of their eyes, like two lifeless stones. A trace of black gas was emerging from her body, winding and circling against the ground, turning into countless black and small footprints, trampling the ground to a crackling sound, and there was a "gurgling" laughter from time to time in the wild grass.
"At first, I didn't know what was wrong with her, but I thought she had become very weird, pretending to be affectionate to me in front of you, but in private she was very cold, not at all like the mommy she used to be. She also asked me to say those rude words to Sister Xiao Wu and drive them away, saying that they would get in her way. I seemed to be sleepwalking that night, but when I woke up, I saw blood stains on her body, and then I heard Mike say that the inn's brother died, and I suspected that it was her, but I didn't dare to say it. ”
"I remember the children's song my mother sang to me, and I vaguely remember my mother's appearance, but what kind of green plum tree, what kind of stone wall, it is her memory at all, she wants to find this village, so she uses me. But I didn't expect that I would really find my family and mother here. That day, I accidentally saw the longevity thread in Shen'er's brother's hand, and he told me that at this time, his family was unique, not because of any special weaving method, but because the longevity thread that should have been made of five-color rope was only missing black, and this longevity thread was exactly the same as the one in my hand, and the blue, white, red and yellow lacked a color of longevity. ”
"I found the person I'd dreamed of countless times, but I couldn't recognize her. Susan told me that as long as I honestly shut up and don't say anything, she won't hurt my loved ones. I could only endure it and swallow that secret in my stomach. And she will bring you into the village as she commands, for she will not leave until she kills all the people in the village."
"So the evil cult under the banyan tree was deliberately released by her, in order to attract our attention, so that she has time for the other evil cults to kill the family," Amy said incoherently, but Zhao Zimai fully understood, he looked at the footprints that gathered more and more beside Susan, and suddenly gasped, "Could it be that Lang Zhong too?"
"She gave him her pocket watch and asked him to lie to Gu Lizheng, but she eventually killed him." Speaking of this, Amy burst into tears, "I listened to her, I didn't say anything, she still took my sister." ”
Her shoulders were suddenly hugged by a pair of soft hands, and Yu Shi took Amy tightly into her arms, unable to speak, "Xiaoling, do you know why black is the only one missing from your five-color rope?" Black represents water, but you have enough water in your life, and my mother is afraid that the water will take you away, so she doesn't dare to use it. Xiaoling, you are my Xiaoling, every time I see you crying, I feel distressed, I know you are my child, I know you are not dead. ”
"But little sister, little sister was still taken away by the water, it's my fault, if I had said it earlier, my little sister would have been fine." Amy stuck her head in Yu's arms and sobbed, out of breath, and her little face flushed.
"Your sister isn't dead."
A clear voice came from not far away, everyone was shocked, and when they turned around, they saw Mu Xiaowu holding swaddling clothes in one hand and Baotian in the other hand walking in their direction. A sneer hung on her face, and out of the corner of her eye, she glanced at Susan next to the tower.
"Xiao Wu, when did you get there, why didn't I find out?" Mu Cripple was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped, he always thought that Mu Xiaowu was standing beside him, and he even put all his mind on Susan, and he didn't see when she rushed out to save someone.
"When you see it, the daylilies are cold." Mu Xiaowu smacked him, but his bright eyes were still staring at Susan, and he didn't move away for half a minute.
"This time it's really thanks to Miss Mu, if she hadn't blocked the ice with a copper coin, I'm afraid that this kid and I would have been pierced like those people." Baotian said as he handed the swaddling clothes to the ecstatic Yu, and he couldn't help but reach out and scratch the child's nose.
"Don't be happy too early, the evil is exhausted, and the killing is on a large scale, I am afraid that it will affect the innocent." Mu Xiaowu said coldly, his face becoming more and more somber.
"What do we do now?" Zhao Zimai walked to Mu Xiaowu's side, and he also kept staring at Susan, because the black qi around her body was getting thicker and thicker, making it almost impossible to see her original appearance, but there were still baby's laughter coming out of her body from time to time, which was weird and terrifying.
"Sister, you have to save Mommy, Mommy has a bad thing in her body, but she is not a bad person." Amy broke free from Yu's arms and looked at Mu Xiaowu with pleading eyes.
"I" Mu Xiaowu was speechless for a while, she knew that it was impossible to embroider the evil from Susan's body by herself, even if she added Mu Cripple, it was impossible for this thing to be resentful, and hundreds of thousands of it was condensed together, and it had already turned into an evil spirit, even if she urged the copper needle, it was impossible to normalize it.
But now in this situation, she can only give it a try, otherwise, whether it is them or the villagers who survived, I am afraid that they will be swallowed by this evil.
moreover
Mu Xiaowu lowered his head and looked at the rosary on his wrist, and his heart quietly moved: Besides, there is Sang, isn't it? was really cornered, and she could only take off the rosary and let it out. This idea had been planned by her for a long time, so even if there was a momentary hesitation, fearing that she might never be able to regain her body again, the thought was only fleeting, and it quickly disappeared from her mind.
She looked at Susan, who was standing motionless by the tower, and sent the copper needle between her fingers in her direction, and said, "A thousand gods and saints, protect my needle spirit." The ghost of the nine ugliness, know your name. It is urgent to be arrested, and it must not be stopped for long. ”
The copper needle carried a gust of wind and pierced into Susan's eyebrows, and it seemed to really work, because the black qi around Susan's body slowly disappeared, and vanished, revealing her original appearance.
