Chapter 257: Vicious Mother-in-law
Pulling Xiao Ya apart, I turned around and picked up the spirit banner that the second master gave me from the side of the bed. Try to communicate with the second master inside the ghost boy in the mountain whip before.
But after a long time, the spirit flag did not react.
Remembering what Yan Xiaoying said before, the second master and Xiaoling may be busy suppressing the demon generals and demon soldiers who have been collected into the soul banner at the moment, and they don't have time to pay attention to me at all, right?
I called out a few times, but I didn't see any reaction from the spirit flag, so I gave up. I thought about it, the second master and Xiaoling are now in the spirit flag, I don't know if I want to eat? Do you want to feed yourself the blood like the ghost boy you used to raise?
After hesitating for a while, in the end I think it's better to forget it, on the one hand, my body has not recovered, and it is not suitable to bleed, when I raised a ghost boy before, although I didn't have much blood for a month, I still feel weak.
Besides, I don't know anything about this soul flag, and I don't know how to use it, the most important thing is that the demon generals and demon soldiers may be collected in the soul banner by the second master, and if I rush to feed the blood, it may be a bad thing.
I thought about it, and finally put the spirit flag in front of the dressing and put a stick of incense on it!
People eat and smell the fragrance, the second master and Xiaoling are now separated from me by yin and yang, and they are no longer the same passerby, so they can only incense them.
Sitting on the chair and staring at the spirit banner in front of him, the scenes he had experienced in Longyi Village and on Centipede Ridge couldn't help but come to mind.
To tell the truth, I haven't come to my senses until now for the death of the camel and the second master.
It ended too abruptly.
It suddenly struck me as unreal, and if it hadn't been for my own experience, I would have suspected that I was just lying in bed and having a long nightmare.
When I woke up, the people were gone.
In fact, I still have a lot of doubts about the six-winged centipede on Centipede Ridge Mountain and the secrets in the ancient tomb of the demon general, especially what the second master once told me, the demon general was once a general in the Qin and Han dynasties, and later practiced Baiyue magic, hibernated in the mountains and forests, and became a demon general.
And also...... Before, the camel had already obtained the elixir refined by the demon general, and later he entered the demon general's tomb to find the arm of the demon king Chiyou and get the power of the demon king.
It's just that I, Yan Xiaoying, and Liu Xiaojiao entered the Demon General's Tomb, and they didn't see the so-called Demon King's hand, and they didn't even have a clue.
Maybe...... It's just an ethereal legend, right? Is there even a character like Chiyou in this world? Even if there was such a person, he would probably be just an ordinary tribal leader, but he was demonized later......
Taking a deep breath, he shook his head, leaving behind the mess in his mind, unwilling to think about it anymore.
However, after a few seconds, I couldn't help but think of Jingmei, my nominal wife.
She...... Where are you now?
What the hell do those Yin Soldiers want to do to her? Why did you take her away?
What kind of secret is still hidden in Jingmei's body?
What should I do to meet her?
β¦β¦
It was a long, painful night.
Because I miss it endlessly.
After tossing and turning, I finally managed to stay up until dawn, and I hurriedly put on my clothes and shoes and went out of the room.
When I went out of the yard, I saw that my mother was already preparing Xiaoya's breakfast for school in the kitchen, and at this moment she was tearing her throat and shouting, "Xiaoya got up for breakfast!" β
"Oh......"
On the other side of the courtyard, the room where my eldest brother used to live, has now become Xiaoya's boudoir, and there is a girl's confused response from inside.
I heard my mother's footsteps coming from the kitchen, and she seemed to be coming out.
I heard footsteps, ran out of the gate, and crept away.
There's no way, if I let my mother know that I'm dragging my injured body around, I guess I'll have to talk a lot, so I chose to sneak away.
The reason why I left the village so early in the morning was because before I came back from Centipede Ridge, Yan Xiaoying and I had an agreement.
We agreed to go to the hospital in the town to visit Liu Xiaojiao this morning, and by the way, we picked up the old fat guy and discharged him from the hospital.
In the morning, the mountains are covered with white fog, and the grass on the roadside is covered with hoarfrost.
Today seems to be very cold, and before the Mid-Autumn Festival, the roadside is shrouded in frost and fog, which is a very rare thing in our south.
I tightened my clothes and walked along the mountain path towards the coffin shop of Old Lady Yan.
It wasn't until the sun rose in the east that I finally came to the door of the coffin shop, there was a willow tree in front of the door, and the door was still tightly covered.
Standing in front of the door, I hesitated for a moment, but finally knocked on the door.
"Knock Knock ......"
I didn't use much force, I was afraid of arguing with Old Lady Yan, and I was still a little afraid of this senior who had a grudge against my old man when I was young.
Because every time I came to the coffin shop before, I would be scolded by Mrs. Yan.
I just want to wake up Yan Xiaoying secretly, and then leave together on the premise of alarming Old Lady Yan.
If I had my phone, it wouldn't have been so much trouble, but unfortunately I lost my fucking phone again!
However, as soon as I knocked on the door, the sound was probably not heard in the room, and the door creaked open from the inside. It's easy
Seeing the door open, my heart tightened for no reason, and I secretly prayed that it would not be Old Lady Yan.
When I looked up and saw that it was Yan Xiaoying who opened the door, I immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Yan Xiaoying looked at me, with a cold expression on her face, and said lightly: "Why is it so early?" Can't sleep at night? β
"I miss you, I can't sleep!"
I relaxed and casually said a joke in order to liven up the atmosphere.
Unexpectedly, Yan Xiaoying hadn't spoken yet, and another door suddenly opened, only to see Old Lady Yan glaring at me with an old face inside the door and scolding: "Stinky boy, you want to trick my family Xiaoying into going with you?" β
"Uh......"
Unexpectedly, Old Lady Yan was also inside the door, and her sudden joke was actually told to her, Xiao I was thick-skinned, and I couldn't help but feel extremely embarrassed at this time.
Looking at Granny Yan's expression, she looked at me like a thief, if someone who didn't know saw this scene, they would think that I was going to kidnap her granddaughter.
But...... I think now that I and Yan Xiaoying are secretly in love when we are studying, and we are suddenly ...... by each other's parents
Seeing that I didn't speak, Old Lady Yan seemed to be even more angry, gritted her teeth and said, "I said the boy surnamed Lao, can you find less of our Xiaoying in the future?" How can you say that you are also a person who has just gotten married, it is not good to accompany your wife in the mountains, and our Xiaoying is together when it is dark all day, others don't know, and they think that our Xiaoying seduces you! Hum! You also pee and see yourself, will our Xiaoying take a fancy to you......"
"Grandma, what did you say?"
Yan Xiaoying interrupted Old Lady Yan's words, and said with an embarrassed face: "It's good for you to say less, and no one treats you as a dumb person if you don't make a sound, Tianyan and I have something to go out, and I don't have time to show you the shop!" β
Yan Xiaoying said, pulling me down the steps, she gave me a look, and hurried away.
At that moment, the two of them ignored Old Lady Yan anymore, and left quickly as if they were fleeing.
"Stinky boy! Let me tell you, don't have any ill intentions towards our Xiaoying, if you let the old woman know, you have to break your dog's legs......"
Behind him, there was a menacing snort from Old Woman Yan.
Thanks to the fact that there is no one living in the vicinity of Old Lady Yan's coffin shop for several miles, otherwise if someone hears it, it is estimated that this matter will make a big fuss.
I only pretended not to hear, and Yan Xiaoying and the two of them quickened their pace.
The two of them walked far away, and only when they knew that they couldn't hear Old Lady Yan's scolding, they dared to stop.
"Phewβ"
I turned my head to look at the coffin shop behind me, and let out a sigh of relief, I was really afraid that Old Lady Yan would chase after me with a stick.
Yan Xiaoying stood beside me with her hands folded and looked at me with a funny expression: "I can't imagine that you are also afraid, giggles!" β
I pursed my lips and said, "Old Lady Yan seems to have a great prejudice against me, it seems that I will not look for you in the future, so as to save myself from being scolded again." Besides, what she said is not completely unreasonable, you are a yellow flower girl, and you are with me, a married man, every day, and you will inevitably be gossiped about by others. β
"There are many rights and wrongs in the village, although there is nothing between us, but it is different when others see it, you have to marry someone in the future!"
"I don't care what people say!"
Yan Xiaoying said helplessly: "It's just that Grandma really doesn't know how to say that she is good, maybe because of her age, she likes to be verbose lately, I hope you don't mind, she just talks fiercely." β
"Naturally, old man, isn't it all like this? You haven't seen my old man, he's much more "wonderful" than your grandma...... β
"By the way, after all this time, hasn't you heard from your grandfather?" Yan Xiaoying asked suddenly.
"Nope!"
I sighed and said, "Although I already know that he is not my real grandfather, I still hope that nothing will happen to him, he is so old, and I don't know where he is hiding at the moment?" β
After thinking about it, I smiled again: "That old pit will definitely not treat himself badly, he can even cheat the judge pen of the Patrol Yang Judge, how can he suffer a loss?" I guess I don't know where to hide and live happily now, my worries are unnecessary. It's just that...... He doesn't want to contact us, we can't find him at all, and there's no way around it. β
The two chatted as they walked to the side of the road towards the city.
On the way, the two stopped a motorcycle that was hitchhiking, and when they arrived in the city, it was already three poles old, and the weather was warmer.
The city is bustling with traffic.
I wasn't in the mood to go shopping, so I went straight to the central hospital to see Liu Xiaojiao and the old fat man.
Unexpectedly, when we went to the front desk to ask the nurse if there was such a person as Liu Xiaojiao, what we got was that Liu Xiaojiao was discharged, to be exact, transferred to the hospital.
The nurse told us that Liu Xiaojiao had just been hospitalized and was picked up by several mysterious people, and their director also went with her, probably to a hospital in the city......
I didn't expect Liu Xiaojiao to be picked up, which made Yan Xiaoying and I a little different.
But if you think about it carefully, it seems that it is reasonable, Liu Xiaojiao can become the deputy captain as soon as she comes to our town, and even become the successor of the Yin Affairs Management Office, she must have a certain background.
Now that she is seriously injured and has a broken left arm, she has been taken away for more advanced treatment, and her left arm is ...... And maybe there will be salvation.
Yan Xiaoying and I don't know whether to be happy or disappointed about this.
Anyway, I'm a little lost, after all, Liu Xiaojiao's left arm was injured by herself, and when she was transferred to the hospital and left, I couldn't give her a ride, which made me feel a little guilty.
I wonder if she will come back here after her injuries are healed?
I don't know, if the people behind her know that her arm was broken for me, will they come to me to settle accounts?
After all, Liu Xiaojiao's identity doesn't seem to be simple, it seems to be the daughter of a big family......
