Chapter 191: White Bones
After beating the drum for the second watch, Li You ate a few bites of the dry food he brought, and began to look around in the yard.
Zhao Banxian'er saw that he had nothing to do, so he opened his mouth and asked, "Li You, you are from Penglai Fairyland, what ...... What does it look like there? ”
Li Youxin, the old man, why hasn't forgotten this stubble, and vaguely:
"It's not good at all, the air is bad, there are few people, and I'm bored. Eh, master, isn't this courtyard a magic conjure? ”
"No, there should be this courtyard here, or you think about it, why did this place keep being vacant before? And now you can see that some people have bought this house. ”
"But we haven't seen anyone buying a house from beginning to end? Also, I remember Liu Jiji, there should be a cake shop here, where did I go? ”
Li You's words made Zhao Banxian'er also embarrassed, and stood up from the ground: "Listen to what you say, it seems that something is really wrong, let's take a good look at each room." ”
After the two made up their minds, they walked out of the main room side by side.
First the east and west wings, then the second courtyard in the ear room, the first ......
After searching the entire courtyard, they found nothing, not even a single body.
The half-fairy looked at Li You, then looked at the ground again, and wondered:
"That's not right, when we were led here by that family at the beginning, it stands to reason that there should be other victims, why is this place empty?"
Li You looked at the half-fairy and thoughtfully: "Unless ......"
"There's something wrong with that guy." After thinking about it, Banxian Er flicked his sleeves and said, "Get out quickly, we seem to have been tricked, there should be a demon!" ”
It was too late, and before the two of them could open their legs, a foul smell came from their noses.
The smell of decay was mixed with the smell of burning proteins, and there was a red fire in front of the northwest.
"Quick! It's on fire! The half-fairy just shouted, and rushed out in three or five steps.
Li You naturally didn't dare to slack off, and followed him to the outermost courtyard, but the gate was blocked by someone from the outside.
After three pushes and five pushes, Li You and half Xian'er failed to push the door open.
"Master, this one?"
"Cast a spell by a demon, let's go over the wall!" finished, the half-fairy stepped on his waist and rubbed on the wall.
This kind of wall is different from the common one.
The height alone can reach about three meters, and the surface is covered with moss due to dampness, making it extremely slippery.
Li You looked at it for a while, and he didn't know where to start, so he hurriedly called out to the master and asked him if he could open the door outside.
"Eh, I really don't know what kung fu you learned in Penglai Wonderland!"
The half-fairy shook her head helplessly, then turned around, lowered her head and didn't know what she was looking at, and half-didn't move.
Li You looked at him motionless below, thinking that he had fallen into an evil spirit, and hurriedly called his name again and again.
"You, you better stay inside, I have to solve something!" Zhao Banxian didn't look back, so she left Li You and turned over and went out.
"Hey! Feed! Li You didn't know what this Zhao Banxian'er had seen, and he would let him leave him.
In desperation, he hurriedly looked around for something to pin his feet, looked and looked, and finally found that in the corner, there was a large pottery vat.
This kind of tank is very common in Li You's hometown, and it is even more common in the countryside.
Some people use it to hold water, and some use it to hold miso sauce.
"It's you."
After sighing secretly, Li You ran over and pushed down the wooden plank covering it.
Immediately afterwards, he firmly grasped the eaves of the cylinder with both hands, and before he could move away, Li You looked at the eyes of the cylinder, and suddenly stared at the round.
Inside the vat was a corpse.
Although there was only one skeleton left, Li You still recognized who this person was from the faded costume.
Xinghua, Wang Fu's second wife.
How could that beautiful girl be here?
Li You thought about it for a while and didn't figure it out, why did the apricot blossoms that he looked at a few times turn into white bones?
She flicked the spider silk wrapped around the skull with her hand, and a thick layer of dust wrapped her around her.
"No, this man must have been dead for years."
When Li You was still puzzled, he suddenly moved twice under the skirt of the bones, which frightened Li You to retreat again and again.
"When, chirp......"
After hearing the sound of the mouse, Li You breathed a sigh of relief, and the smell of burnt in his nose gradually faded, it was estimated that Zhao Banxian had extinguished the fire outside.
Back in front of the tank, looking at the bones of Bai Sensen inside, it looked very strange in this hazy night.
"Beauty has been like a famous general since ancient times, and she is not allowed to see white heads in the world. Alas, you are also a man of thin life, so I will bury you. ”
When he was digging the pit just now, he was scolded by Zhao Banxian because he didn't choose the location well.
His pit was a place of extreme yin, which was not suitable for burying men, so he calculated the location and asked Li You to dig another one.
"Sure enough, it's a master, I still wonder why he didn't let me bury that pit, it turned out to be for you. Me, if you are really an apricot blossom, don't hurt me! ”
"Okay, Childe."
"Who?" When Li You heard this, his hairs stood up, and cold sweat flowed down his back spine.
After waiting for a while, Li You pretended to have the courage to shout again: "Who is talking?" ”
Still no one answered, Li You swallowed his saliva, and his heart may have been due to his lack of sleep, and he had auditory hallucinations.
After realizing that there was indeed no one, he slowly turned around, and there was nothing behind him, he let out a long breath and continued to pull the jar towards the courtyard.
After a lot of effort, Li You finally moved the vat from the outer house to the courtyard in front of the main house
After a short rest, he wiped the sweat from his head and said to himself, "Alas, I'm tired to death." ”
First, he transferred Xinghua's bones to the pit, and he wrapped his hands around the hem of his skirt to prevent the bones from falling.
Then he was placed in the pit, and after all this, he was still presentable:
"The dojo is an achievement, and the relief will be completed. The lord of fasting is pious, and he worships with incense. Under the altar, all the people in the sea raised the holy name. The sea of bitterness is surging and self-calling, charming and does not wake up for half a minute, and the world does not ...... Eh! ”
Halfway through the reading, I only felt that someone slapped me behind me, so I hurriedly closed my eyes and squatted down.
He kept chanting: "Amitabha, Old Blessing, Virgin Mary, Jesus Christ ......"
"I, in your descendant, how can you believe in such a miscellaneous nature?"
Hearing that it was Zhao Banxian'er's voice, Li Youxin turned his head and sighed: "Master, don't you know that people are scary, scared to death?" ”
"As soon as I came back, I saw that you were reading words, and I thought that something had happened, so I tempted you. What are you doing here? ”
Li You touched his chest and said, "I just found the bones of the corpse, which seem to be from the apricot blossoms, so I thought about burying her, don't you recite a sutra to her?" ”
"We are Taoist priests, how can we take the scriptures of those bald donkeys to surpass the souls? And where are the bones? ”
"Isn't that right here?" After Li You turned around, he pointed his finger at Pit Zheng
As everyone knows, the white bones are gone.
