Chapter 4: The End

It was the day before, early in the morning, when the sky was slightly bright, and the moon was still asleep in the treetops.

A few crows flew around not far away, circling and chirping, Xiaoyue's grandparents frowned and hurriedly drove the crows away.

(It is said that the crow is a symbol of bad luck, and a person will emit a scent before death, because the crow is able to smell this smell.) Therefore, especially the elderly, they were very afraid to hear the crows. )

Xiaoyue's grandparents took hoes and bamboo baskets on their backs to plough the fields at the bottom of the mountain, the land area is not large, and the terrain here is rugged, so it is arid land.

There is a lack of water here, and the annual grain production can be described as very small, and there are no pesticides, so they have to catch insects by hand.

In the cornfield, the corn seedlings were only as high as knees, and the green insects hid in the corn cob until they bit the corn to death.

Xiaoyue's grandfather was hoeing weeds in the idle field, waiting to plant new crops.

Gradually, the sun came out.

A ray of bright light reflected on Xiaoyue's face through the window, a trace of warmth and laziness, Xiaoyue's stomach "growled".

Someone seemed to be talking outside the door, Xiaoyue rubbed her sleepy eyes, jumped down from the kang and washed her face, gently lifting her feet to reach for the white towel.

Then I went to look for food, opened the kitchen cabinet and saw a little hard yellow bun, then took the glass to pour hot water, walked to the corner of the room and was just about to pour water The cup was broken, Xiaoyue sighed and went to get the broom.

At this moment, Xiaoyue's eyes lit up, and she found a small bag of white powder, Xiaoyue curiously studied the bag of white powder, and put it in the palm of her hand as a treasure.

At this time, Xiaoyue didn't have the heart to do anything else, just studied this so-called "baby" with all her heart.

Xiaoyue thought to herself: What the hell is this, it looks delicious.

Xiaoyue gently added a small sip, the taste was a little sweet, Xiaoyue quickly wiped out half of the bag, and there was still a little left to come back to her grandparents to eat.

After about half an hour, Satsuki felt a tingling pain in her stomach and kept foaming at the mouth, and she tried to get out of the room.

She kept whispering, "I'm looking for my mother, my mother ......." and her voice was intermittent, still holding the "rat poison" she regarded as a treasure in her hand.

At the moment when Xiaoyue was about to step out of the door, a group of robbers dressed in black stabbed Xiaoyue to death, and at that moment, Xiaoyue clearly saw the person's face. That's right, he's a guy in the neighboring village who doesn't do his job.

Eventually, Xiaoyue fell to the ground heavily, and her hand gradually let go of the bag of "rat poison". When Xiaoyue's grandparents returned home from farm work, they found Xiaoyue dead and cold, no longer breathing.

The people of the village dressed Xiaoyue beautifully, and Xiaoyue's face seemed to show a satisfied smile, and she fell asleep peacefully in a dream in a foreign country.

Facing the sudden death of her playmate, Lu Xue was very difficult to accept in her heart, although she didn't play with Xiaoyue for a long time, this friendship was indelible.

Lu Xue walked to Xiaoyue's side, holding Xiaoyue's warmless hand, tears not only flowed down, but also soaked through her clothes.

Outside, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the plane trees outside were being blown by the wind and making a terrifying sound.

Because the cause of Xiaoyue's death is unknown, and she is not a local (most of the people are hiding here to avoid the "second child". )

It is necessary to carry out the activity of "driving out corpses" according to local customs.

The origin of the corpse is recorded in the folk book: according to legend, thousands of years ago, the ancestor of the Miao people, Apu (Miao language: father-in-law) Chi You, led his troops to fight against the enemy by the Yellow River, until the corpses were all over the field and the blood flowed like a river.

After the battle was about to retreat to the rear, and the soldiers carried all the wounded soldiers away, Apu Chiyu ordered the Apu army division to return the brothers who had died in the battle to their hometowns.

So the Apu military division disguised himself as Apuchiyu and stood among the corpses of the brothers who had died in battle, after a while of silent recitation of incantations and prayers to the gods.

The corpses that were originally lying on the ground all stood up at once, and walked south in a regular manner behind the "Fu Jie" of Apu You Gaoqing. This is the earliest version of the exorcism.

The person who chased the corpse was a mage in a Taoist robe. In front of these corpses, draped in black corpse cloth, there is a living person, known locally as the "corpse chaser".

No matter how many corpses there were, he was the one who drove them. No matter what the weather, wear a pair of straw sandals.

He wears a green cloth robe, a black belt around his waist, a green cloth hat on his head, a gong in his hand, and a bag of talismans hidden in his waist bag.

The mage is not behind the corpse, but leads the way in front of the corpse, and does not carry a lantern, because he is leading the group of corpses forward while beating the small gong in his hand, shaking a soul bell in his hand to keep the night walkers away, and informing those who have dogs to lock up the dogs.

If there were more than two corpses, the carcer would string them one by one with straw ropes, one at intervals of seven or eight feet.

When walking in the dark, the corpse wore a tall blanket hat on its head, and several pieces of yellow paper with calligraphy on its forehead hung down its face.

On the way to drive the corpses, there is a "dead corpse inn", this mysterious "dead corpse inn", only the dead corpse and the corpse chaser live, and ordinary people do not live.

Its doors are open all year round. Because behind the two large doors is the place where the corpse rests. The corpse chaser drove the corpse, arrived at the "corpse shop" before dawn, and quietly left at night.

The corpses were all standing neatly against the wall behind the door panels. When it was difficult to walk in heavy rain, I stopped in the store for a few days and nights.

All arrangements are ready, that is, after the deceased is buried, the bereaved family will go to claim it. As soon as the lid of the coffin was opened, the eyebrows appeared, and it was indeed a bereaved relative.

It looks like yesterday, but it is sleeping in the coffin, sad and miserable, devastating, some crying and crying, and some crying silently.

Subsequently, Xiaoyue was buried. Lu Xue also expressed her best wishes to Xiaoyue.

Xiaoyue died, and Lu Xue was sullen for a long time.

However, what makes Lu Xue even more sad is that because of the household registration, Lu Xue needs to go back to her hometown to go to elementary school, which means that Lu Xue has to say goodbye to her other playmate Ah Ming, and she really doesn't know when she will be able to meet again.

Ah Ming heard his mother say that Lu Xue was leaving, so he hurriedly ran to Lu Xue's house and stood in front of Lu Xue, showing a reluctant expression.

Lu Xue comforted: "It's okay, Brother Amin, if I miss you, I can come back to see you, of course, you can also come to my house to play with me, distance is not a problem, right? I will always remember the bits and pieces of our time together: you and I walked hand in hand on both sides of the willow tree, told me jokes to make me happy, even if it wasn't funny at all, taught me to catch tadpoles......"

Lu Xue couldn't help crying, and Ah Ming also cried, after all, the feeling of separation is always so unacceptable.

Fairy World –

Mo Qianwu continued to chase, and the demon soldiers were divided into two ways, one side of the army chased from the right path, and the other side was outflanked from the path, which shows that Mo Qianwu made sufficient preparations to catch You Yihan.

You Yihan and Mao Qinyi were running on a small road, but the demon soldiers were behind. "It's not a way to go on like this, we have to plan well. ”

"What Yihanjun said is true, but I also brought some small methods of transforming time and space from the Aquarium, hoping that they can be useful. However, the situation at this time should not be underestimated, and the two of them still have little chance of winning.

Soon, the army of the demon clan caught up and surrounded the two people layer by layer.

Qin'er lifted the white skirt carved with lotus flowers, and then used the rare martial art of the water tribe - time and space transfer, just as Qin'er turned around to use this magic, Mo Qianwu said "Guan", and Qin'er's mana instantly expired.

Mo Qianwu said loudly: "Fortunately, my father had the foresight to set up an enchantment here in advance, in which you will lose all your mana, and you will not be able to break it. You Yihan, I didn't expect you to fall into my hands, as a great general in the immortal world, now that you are what you are now, your immortal clan will not be far from disbanding. After saying that, he couldn't stop laughing.

"Girl, what you say is too absolute. I saw a mild-mannered, black-clad man walking towards Mo Qianwu with a white maple fan in his hand.

Mo Qianwu scolded angrily: "Where did I come from, I don't know what to do, do you know who I am, I am." ”

"Are you the princess of the demon clan, I have seen a brutal princess, but I have never seen such a brutal princess as you. Do your father know that you are so wanton and unqualified outside? If you know, then you really gave you the face of the demon patriarch. ”

Mo Qianwu's expression immediately turned blue and purple. "Presumptuous, you really don't want to live. ”

"That's right, if you have the ability, you can really beat me, then I'll be at your disposal, and if you lose, open the barrier and let them go. ”

"Don't think about it. "Demon Qian Wu attacked him. I saw that the man waved his hand to Mo Qianwu, blocked Mo Qianwu's attack with a fan, and looked at Mo Qianwu.

He asked, "Do you know the method of breaking the barrier set by Xingluo Zi?" "Yes, the solution is on the tusks of my neck." He immediately retrieved the ivory and opened the barrier.

"Hello Princess Qinyi, in Xia Zhao Xingyuan, King Mao is still worried about your safety, so he sent me to protect you. ”

"Did I see you somewhere?" I remembered, did you also pass one of the tests of the Aquarium?" You Yihan asked. ”

That's right, I admire your 'illusion', we have to have a good discussion when we have time, this place is not suitable for a long time, let's get out of here quickly. ”

Yihan patted Zhao Xingyuan on the shoulder, "Then be careful, we'll meet at the mouth of the fairy world." You Yihan and Mao Qinyi left first, and the rest were covered by Zhao Xingyuan.

Zhao Xingyuan was more than enough to fight against those demon soldiers. Subsequently, You Yihan, Mao Qinyi, Zhao Xingyuan, and the army of the Shui Clan all arrived at the Immortal Clan.
