Volume 1 The Nose Torturer Chapter 87 Memories - Childhood Elders (II)
"Daddy! It's true! ”
Xiao left the courtyard of home
Xiaoli's family and Uncle Shao were eating around the table, and they saw Xiaotong dancing and gesturing: "That aunt is beautiful, just waving at us in the water!" ”
"Where?!" Uncle Shao spread his hands and said, "I haven't seen anything!" ”
"Yes!"
Xiaotong pouted and pointed at Uncle Shao and said, "It's all Uncle Shao, as soon as you turn around, the aunt will leave!" ”
"Hey! Tong'er! Don't be rude! ”
The father used chopsticks to make a gesture to hit Xiaotong's outstretched little hand, but Uncle Shao hurriedly stopped and persuaded: "This is a matter of doing a sagas, the baby is still very young?" Let's drink and drink! ”
"Humph! I'm going to look for the little fish! It's better not to talk to Uncle Shao. ”
Xiaotong stuck out her tongue and made a grimace, walked straight to the small table at the head of the bed from the dining table, and stepped forward with her fleshy chin in both hands, only to see a brand-new fish tank on it, in which several small fish were swimming around with their tails swinging......
…………
The moon is in the sky
The stars in the big city were much dimmer at last, and only the silver moon could tell that it was already late at night.
There is an unwritten rule that the half-cut candle must be lit at home at any time, even if no one in the family goes out, his father and mother must light it before leaving.
"Little Yuyu is so pitiful......"
Now that Xiaoli and Xiaotong have fallen asleep, my sister muttered a few words in her dreams, obviously thinking about her experience in the Shuizizi Fish Market during the day.
Xu was blowing in the breeze, and the half-burning candle on the table jumped a few times, and the fish in the tank were awakened, and turned around violently.
It's just, where does the wind come from in the house?!
As soon as I thought of this, the originally calm candle shook a few more times, and then the firelight suddenly elongated and retracted, and so on, the room was extremely terrifying, and with a "snap", the wick could no longer hold on, and finally turned into a wisp of green smoke and drifted into the air to dissipate the embers.
The room was darkened......
"Ahh
A long sigh, not like the voice of two siblings.
"Alas......"
Again, sadness and resentment, after surrounding the house, returned to its original tranquility......
Looking at the fish that had just been disturbed by the firelight, it could not sleep at this time, and was swimming very happily in the tank. The tail swung a few times, the fins were close to the sides, and the body swung a few times along the force, and turned around when it was almost to the wall of the tank.
A muffled sound of "bang", those fish turned around and hit the tank without hurrying, and then they still didn't have a long memory, and the swimming speed and impact were more violent, until they couldn't hold on anymore, and the bodies floated, only the gills occasionally fanned a few times, and they couldn't live long.
"Sneer......"
There was another murmur, but it was from the floating fish, and the originally lubricated and shiny scale armor became dry and wrinkled at this time, as if it had been exposed to the wind and sun for a long time and lost its moisture, and the fish belly was also deflated, and the gills of the fish that were still fanning just now did not move at this time.
It's clearly a few dried fish soaked in water!
"Ahh
The long sigh came again, and it was noticeably deeper.
"Ahh
The sound was different from before, and the sigh continued, and there was no intention of stopping. With this sound, the water in the tank gradually rippled, and it surrounded the center from all sides, and finally formed a vortex that went straight to the bottom of the tank.
It didn't last long, the tip of the vortex shook a few times, as if something had come out of it, and the vortex gradually lifted, and the things that poked out of it grew larger and larger, until it reached the surface of the water and bulged out a bag of water......
"Bang-" scattered in all directions, and a figure gradually appeared from the small tank, and as it broke away from the fish tank, its body expanded more and more, and finally fell to the ground and stood quietly in front of the bed looking at the two sleeping children above.
The figure was a woman, barefoot, wearing a thin white coat, with a very calm face, a pair of bright eyes hanging under two curved eyebrows, and a slightly pale cherry mouth under the firm and delicate nose.
"Tick-"
The soaked, over-the-shoulder black hair let it droop, and the condensed water beads slid down to the ends of the hair, and finally dripped to the ground.
"Child...... Sub ......"
The woman in white raised her slender arm, stretched out in the direction of Xiaoli and Xiaotong, and muttered in a low voice:
"What a good boy...... What a lovely ......."
"The cloud seal is too empty, at the beginning of the catastrophe. At first glance, sinking or floating. Wandering in all directions, more than one zhang. The innocent emperor is a book.
In order to play the cave chapter, the second book spirit rune. The beginning of the decline of the Yuan, the true text of the birth. It is clear that there is no ......"
Just when her fingertips were about to touch Xiaotong, she heard a continuous murmuring sound in the corner behind her, and the speed of her speech became faster and faster, and the woman in white only felt her body tighten, and she couldn't move forward half a minute. Even so, the voice did not stop, and the last words were said in a deep voice:
"Shen Zhen can heal itself, dust and drowning can be helped, and the underworld will depend on it. It is ascended to the immortal capital! ”
Then I saw that the outstretched arm of the woman in white was suddenly retracted, her arms were attached to her sides, and her body turned involuntarily. At the same time, the half-broken candle that had been extinguished flashed a faint flame - rekindled.
The candlelight lined, and I saw Uncle Shao pinching his fingers on the opposite side, and Xiao Li's parents on the left and right sides were waiting with a blade, and the woman didn't see it clearly, Xiao Li's father had already grabbed the front peach wood blade and turned his backhand and pointed straight at the former.
"Slow!"
Uncle Shao stopped in a deep voice, and the tip of the blade that poked out was immediately retracted, only to see Xiaoli's father frowning and displeased: "Brother Shao, what are you——? ”
"Lao Xiao, you are usually worried that your daughter is too tight, and it is easy to lose her sense of proportion in doing things."
Xiaoli's father heard Uncle Shao say this, put away the wooden sword and sat aside, and responded impatiently:
"Okay, okay—I'm here to see what you can make a name for."
"Mmmm......mmmm
The woman on the side sobbed quietly, obviously frightened.
The demons dressed as three people saw a lot, and they didn't care at all. I saw Uncle Shao slowly walk over and asked softly: "I saw that your breath in the river was extremely stable before, and you didn't have a sense of ghosts, do you need to say anything?" ”
The woman restrained her emotions, looked at Uncle Shao and choked up:
"In the turbulent early years, my family was persecuted, and when I was young and vigorous, I couldn't bear to be insulted and threw myself into this river, and as a result, I became a water ghost nearby......" The woman's eyes were wandering, as if she was reminiscing about the past.
"For decades, I have endured my desires, unwilling to find a substitute for the dead, and my vague thoughts have taken the lives of the fish and shrimp in the river, and I can barely survive. It's just that...... In recent years, the river has been so polluted that not a single living creature can be found. I couldn't bear it all these years, but fortunately there was a self-built market, and I fed my hunger with the live things I sold...... In decades, not a single life has been killed. ”
The woman was very sincere.
"Then why are you here today looking for these two dolls?"
Uncle Shao asked.
The woman looked sideways and said:
"This girl gives me a sense of intimacy, an indescribable feeling. Moreover, no one had been able to see me all these years, but she waved at me, which made me feel very sad to see her again...... I don't know if I'll be able to stay awake in a few years. Or maybe it......" The woman looked at the three of them, "Today is the end of the day...... But I never thought of harming this child......"
"Lao Xiao, what do you think?"
Xiaoli's father looked at Uncle Shao, who came over, turned his face and snorted coldly, "You...... You look at it. ”
"Good—good—"
Uncle Shao nodded again and again, and said to the woman: "It is very rare for a water ghost with such a strong will, I will send you to the underworld today and enjoy the blessings in the next life." ”
The woman was surprised for a moment and said, "You ...... You will not destroy me, you evil spirit? ”
"What does good and evil have to do with what you have to do with your consciousness and actions?"
Uncle Shao chuckled, and then a low murmur sounded, and a paper talisman appeared in his hand:
"Heaven and earth are naturally filthy and scattered, and the cave is void and Huang Lang Taiyuan
The Eight Directions Mighty God made me naturally Lingbao Talisman proclaim for nine days
Qianluo replied that Donggang Taixuan slashed demons and bound evil ghosts
Zhongshan Shen Mantra Yuan Shi Yuwen recited it once, but the illness prolonged
According to the line of the five mountains, the eight seas know the demon king, the head of the guard, and guard my Xuan
The ferocity dissipates and the Dao Qi lasts forever
Haste as a law! ”
As the paper talisman slid down, the woman's figure also dissipated, leaving only a puddle of water stains on the ground, and the word "Xie" appeared in the middle......
"Lao Xiao, I still don't look happy, did Lao Tzu do the right thing today? Do you want to drink some more alcohol——? ”
"Hmph-go!"
"You two - get together to know how to drink and drink, how adult, how bad your body is!"
The adults carefully closed the door and walked out of the courtyard, leaving only the lamps and candles still burning on the table and the two sleeping children.
"Huh—they're gone—"
"Hehe, they didn't find out about us!"
Shortly after the adults walked out, there was a conversation in the house.
"Is that what you saw by the river today?"
"Yes, Dad doesn't seem to like her very much, but I think Uncle Shao listens to her well!"
"They're afraid of waking us up, so don't tell them tomorrow that we've woken up early, let's go to sleep, or someone will suddenly come back and find out that it's time to talk about us."
"Good night, good night, brother-"
The world of children is as simple as that.
