Chapter 18: Gu Man
I pulled Qin Huai and the old man and walked out of the door, and there was a loud "click" behind me, and Ah Jin fell directly from the broken beam, but he landed on the ground with his feet steadily, without a crooked step.
The room was full of smoke and dust, and Ah Jin walked over with something in his hand.
When I looked at it, my scalp was tingling.
It was a gray hay body, and it must have been folded and pressed under the beams inserted into the wall, so it was able to curl up at two ends and maintain an uncomfortable "sitting body bending forward" movement.
I hurriedly ran to the edge of the vat in the yard, dipped a handful of water from the bottom of the vat with my curse hand, and grasped the yin body that was unfolded by me.
"The unfortunate man is dead, and the past is not held accountable. Old carpenter, you have vented your hatred for decades, and the younger generation will disperse the curse for you today. ”
After reciting it, I squeezed out the mantra blood and dripped it on the top of the yin body to open a pardon bridge for it, and then gently wiped the yin body clean with the water at the bottom of the tank, and finally untied the tied string and threw the yin body into the water tank, and the little man floated on the water and slowly lost his human form and scattered into hay.
At the same time, there was a click in the spine of the old man behind me!
I don't know if it's pain or comfort, the old man has been in his mouth like a **, and we didn't dare to move the whole process.
After a few minutes, the old man finally straightened his back and looked at the sky, stretching a lazy waist that he hadn't stretched for decades, and several of us were also infected, and I even yawned.
"Thank you, boy!" As soon as the old man grabbed my hand, I realized that this old man was more than 1.8 meters tall, not only with a straight waist, but also with facial features that could even be regarded as a tyrant in the village, a typical handsome old man.
Looking at Gangzi's face on the side again, I couldn't help but wonder a little about his lineage.
The thing has been done, and everyone is happy.
Although I was a little unsure myself, but fortunately, the matter was resolved, and at this time, not only was the old man grateful to me, but even Gangzi's eyes were much less hostile when he looked at me.
"Young man, you are kind to me, if you don't dislike it, you can take Ah Jin as your daughter-in-law!"
Before I could speak, Qin Huai on the side hurriedly helped me shirk: "That's not good, that's not good, it's too inappropriate to take your daughter away if you do a favor, Wu Yan is not such a person." ”
The night was getting deeper, and Qin Huai and I were also going to say goodbye and leave.
After all, we don't have a spare room to sleep when Gangzi comes back, and the old man plans to give us two clean floors, but I still refuse, I'm really afraid that Gangzi will come in the dark in the middle of the night and wipe our necks.
Out of the house, we went straight to the three-story shop we had before, and that was our last destination for the night.
There was no one in the village who was blinded by the black lights, and the mountain wind blowing behind us was a little cold, which gave us goosebumps.
We didn't hesitate to get to the door of the broken store, and got into it as soon as the cat's waist was drilled.
The first floor was covered with dust and mud, and it was certainly uninhabitable, so we stepped on the creaking old wooden staircase to the second floor.
The second floor was originally a sleeping place, with a large bunk on the left and right sides, and a rough calculation can sleep at least twenty people on one side.
I knew that Qin Huai was allergic to dust, so I asked her to stand at the top of the stairs and I went over to clean it myself, and the shop on the left could reach the moon, so I took out the rag I brought out from the old man's house and began to wipe it.
In fact, it's not dirty here, it's just gray, and I can at least sleep with a duster and toss the bed.
But I tossed, all the dust was raised, and the second floor suddenly couldn't treat people, and now it was like a fire, and the smoke was so thick that I couldn't even see my feet, so I hurriedly covered my mouth and nose and ran to the staircase to wait for the dust to subside before I cleaned up.
Qin Huai had already run to the first floor, and shouted downstairs: "I'll go get you a basin of water, it's useless to wipe it dry." ”
I answered and continued to wait.
Qin Huai's footsteps came out of the broken building, and the dust on the second floor was slowly dissipating.
A few minutes later, I suddenly heard a sudden "creak" of the wooden floor on the third floor above my head.
It's slight, but I can hear it clearly!
The image of the wet water ghost popped up in my mind, and I was so frightened that all the sweaty pores of my body stood up!
I turned my head to see that the stairs leading to the third floor were pitch black.
It stands to reason that this situation should not go up, but I relied on my own two or two skills, and I just happened to help the old man undo the poisonous curse for nearly half of his life, and I couldn't help but feel a little fluttery, so I grabbed two ghost slaps on the neck and slowly walked up the stairs to the third floor.
All the windows on the third floor were closed, and there was almost no light at all.
It was a simple bedroom, except for a wooden ladder leading to the roof, which was a bed, a table, a wardrobe, and nothing more.
But now there seemed to be a person sitting on the bed, not to me dazzled, but there was really a humanoid silhouette sitting on the edge of the bed, the person with his head bowed and motionless, as if he was still holding something in his hand.
I coughed lightly as a reminder and asked, "Who are you?" ”
The figure looked up at me, and then lowered his head indifferently for a second, as if he was holding something much more interesting than I did.
"Don't go looking for the funeral hall, it's boring to get in and out." It was a young man's voice, and it sounded languid and casual.
I didn't expect him to know the purpose of our trip, since we left Yan'an, we haven't mentioned the three words of Funeral Gu Hall all the way, how did this person know?
"Then you're mistaken, we're here for a tour." I replied with a pretense of composure.
The man suddenly became happy, and smiled very contemptuously, "You won't still want to find the funeral Gu Hall if you lie, you take a Gu man to play in the mountains and rivers?" How old are you, and you can't talk more than your brains? ”
This person's mouth was extremely poisonous, and I was immediately angry, I just wanted to go back, he suddenly got up and pushed open the old wooden window behind him, leaving a sentence and jumped down, "I took the Gu person away, I will send her back when I run out, brother, you can go home." ”
The moment he jumped out, I saw a familiar back in the moonlight, the voluminous T-shirt, the khaki pants, and the AJ.
I know he's talking about Qin Huai! I yelled and turned around and rushed down the stairs!
I stood at the door and looked around, there was still no one on the street as before, I shouted Qin Huai's name a few times, except for vaguely hearing a few words of irritated angry scolding from the villagers, I didn't get any response.
I hurriedly took out my mobile phone to call Qin Huai, but the phone was hung up, and when I called again, the phone was already turned off.
At this moment, a figure walked on the path leading to the outside of the village on the left.
The figure was obviously a woman and quite tall, and I didn't recognize her until she got closer!
That's Ah Jin!
