Chapter 408: Matching Bone
"But I won't help your daughter get her soul back at all, I'm just an ordinary person." I gritted my teeth.
"Don't worry, I have my specific method to help me find my daughter's soul, and if it can be found so easily, I don't need your help." Lu Lao's eyes seem to be able to see through me.
"And what do you want me to do?" I looked directly at the old man.
"I want to hold a soul festival in our village."
When Old Man Lu said this, even Ada next to him turned extremely pale, as if he had heard Old Man Lu say something from his relatives.
"Old man Lu, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to do this." Ada gritted his teeth.
"What's inappropriate, and isn't it the same thing in our village before?" Old man Lu sneered and said.
"I wonder what you're talking about in the Soul Rite?" I asked, looking at Ada.
"The soul festival is actually to let a living person lie next to the corpse, and attract the soul back to the corpse through the yang energy of the living person, which is the so-called soul festival." Ada sighed and spoke.
Wang Song walked to my side, pulled my clothes, and said, "If that's the case, then forget it, what if there is any accident?" β
I looked at Lu Lao who was standing on the top of the steps, and there was a smile on the corner of Lu Lao's mouth at this time, as if he expected that I would definitely agree.
"I agree." I gritted my teeth and said such a thing, after all, Xie Daocong had saved me so many times at that time, if Xie Daocong could be awakened through this Lao Mo Zi Festival, then I would definitely agree.
As soon as these words came out, not only Wang Song, but even Ada who was standing in front of Lu Lao was stunned.
"In that case, let's set it in two days, and in two days I will hold a soul festival, and then I will arrange for someone to bring clothes to you to let you participate in this ceremony, and when this matter is dealt with, I will give you what you want."
After Lu Lao said this, he closed the door directly.
Ada gritted his teeth and walked with me towards our residence, Ada looked at me and said through gritted teeth, "Whether you know what a soul festival is, this is not a trivial matter. β
"I know what the Soul Rite is, but now I only have one path to choose, and if I don't, then I won't be able to save my companions."
Ada could only send us back to the bamboo house, and after Wang Song and I returned to the room, Wang Song sat on the bed with an annoyed face, and scolded me: "Are you crazy that you actually agreed to him, do you know how serious this matter is?" β
I gritted my teeth and nodded, at this time I had no other way, my only way was like this, since the old man promised me that he would give me the lake fairy grass after I participated in this ceremony, then I promised him what to do.
Wang Song saw my determined expression, gritted his teeth and stopped paying attention to me, I knew that Wang Song definitely had no way to understand my behavior.
In fact, in my eyes, even if my life span is a little less, it doesn't matter, after all, if Xie Daocong didn't help me solve the bus incident, then I wouldn't have lived long.
Soon it was evening, and I quickly fell asleep because I had not slept the day before, but I was awakened by a knock at the door.
When I heard the knock on the door, I immediately reacted, I forgot to put the charm on the door before going to bed, I quickly took out two charms from my backpack, one on the door and the other on the window.
I turned my head to look at Wang Song lying on the bed, Wang Song was sleeping like a dead pig at this time, still snoring, it was obvious that the knock on the door did not wake Wang Song.
As soon as I put the two charms on them, the knock on the door stopped, and I looked warily at the bamboo door in front of me.
"Open the door quickly......" At this moment, a resentful voice came from outside the door.
The woman's voice was extraordinarily high-pitched, and I could hear it very clearly in the quiet of the night.
I suddenly remembered that when I went to Lu Lao's house today, the pair of embroidered shoes I saw could be that the evil person who came to me last night was Lu Lao's daughter.
When I thought about this, my heart beat wildly, and I couldn't help but take a few steps backwards.
"Open the door, don't you want to see me?"
The woman's voice outside came again.
I swallowed a mouthful of saliva, gritted my teeth, and said, "You give me a long way to die, or don't blame me for cleaning you up." β
As I shouted this, the voice outside the door suddenly disappeared
In the quiet of the night, I could even hear my heart beating wildly.
Saying that I'm not afraid that it's all false, I understand very well what this matter means, this woman is estimated to have died unjustly.
Otherwise, there would be no soul still wandering in the world, and if I did hold a soul festival with her, maybe half of my life would be sucked by that woman.
I sat on the bed and forced myself not to think about this matter, as long as this matter was dealt with, then I would be able to wake Xie Daocong up.
At this time, I suddenly remembered Xu Ke, and I didn't know when I would be able to see Xu Ke again.
When I remembered this, I suddenly remembered that it seemed that the 14th was approaching, and I quickly took out my phone and glanced at the calendar.
The date on the calendar is the 12th, which means that there are still two days to go until the 14th, but isn't it the day I will attend the Soul Festival two days later?
The 14th of every month is the day of my worst luck, but I didn't expect to choose that day to participate in the Soul Festival.
I glanced at Wang Song, who was lying on the bed and sleeping like a dead pig, and I didn't plan to tell Wang Song about it.
Soon the next morning, I opened my eyes in a daze, and Wang Song had already woken up at this time, and he was holding his firewood knife and polishing it constantly.
I don't have to guess, I also know what Wang Song is thinking, I looked at Wang Song and said, "Wang Song, you'd better not make trouble on that day, I have to get the Lake Fairy Grass." β
"Liang Fan, in fact, you don't have to do such a thing at all, you can get what we want to get, it's just an old man, as long as we directly break into the house and snatch that herb, then what can he do!" Wang Song sharpened the firewood knife in his hand and said with a resentful face.
"You're still too naΓ―ve, they are a Miao villager, even if we grab the medicinal herbs, will we be able to run out? All of them are guys who are proficient in Gu arts, and even if they really want to run, they can't run far. I let out a long sigh and said helplessly.
I walked up to the bamboo door and opened it, and I was surprised to find that a set of clothes had been placed in the doorway.
I picked up this set of clothes, and this set of clothes was all red, and it was obvious that it was the clothing used by the Miao people.
I took the dress back and put it on the stool, and as I walked outside, there were smiles on the faces of everyone around me.
"Young man, you will be a member of our village from now on." One of the wrinkled old women shouted at me.
"That's right, as long as you participate in the Soul Festival, you will be a member of our village." Another middle-aged uncle spoke, but his words were full of ridicule.
I didn't pay attention to them, but walked towards Lu Lao's house, I wanted to see what they called Sister Su, why she became like this.
Maybe sometime I'll be able to figure out how to solve this problem.
I walked to the door of Lu Lao's house, knocked on the door and the door was opened after a while, and when Lu Lao saw me, there was a smiling expression on his face: "Isn't this our festival candidate?" I didn't expect you to come over in such a hurry. β
"I'm here to find out what caused your daughter to die?" I was very blunt about my doubts.
After Lu Lao heard my words, the smile on his face disappeared in an instant, and he scolded me angrily: "Why are you little cub asking these things, what does this have to do with you?" β
