Looking at the child standing up on the water, almost as tall as me, I was a little at a loss for a moment.

If it is an ordinary child, it is easy to say, but the child in front of him, with his pale and immature face and the lantern hanging around his neck, floating on the surface of the water, is obviously not an ordinary child.

It's just that she is pulling my clothes at the moment, and it is difficult to get rid of them for a while.

I took a deep breath, hesitated, and finally motioned for the golden spring behind me to hold it steady, bent down slightly, and stretched out my hands towards the child.

But just as my hand touched the child's cold skin, the lantern hanging from the latter's neck suddenly flickered on and off as if the electric light had been broken.

"Ahh

When the lantern flickered, the child's whole body became a little illusory, and his body burst black.

The next moment, the child screamed and stumbled back on the water, his face full of horror and fear.

Probably because of the pain, his entire face was distorted and distorted.

At this time, the woman who had been standing on the guardrail of the stilted building finally lost her composure, only to see her turn over and jump from it, instantly blocking between me and the child, looking at me with an extremely cold expression.

"This ......"

Looking at the cold expression of the woman in front of me, I looked at my hands, and the whole person couldn't help but take two steps back.

Seeing that the temperature around her was getting colder, the expression on the woman's face became more and more terrifying, as if she was about to make a move on us, and at this moment, a familiar shout suddenly came from in the distance: "Lao Yan, Xiaoquan, what are you still standing there for?" The village chief has made something delicious and is waiting for you, why don't you come over quickly? ”

Hearing that we were guests invited by the village chief, the cold expression on the woman's face gradually faded, and she turned around and held the child in her arms, ignoring us and going up the wooden ladder to the stilted building.

Seeing her leave with the child in her arms, Huang Jinquan and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and we felt like we were going to live for the rest of our lives.

Turning his head to look at the place where he was shouting, I saw the stilted building that the old man had just gone up to, and at this time, a person was waving to us on the guardrail upstairs.

Under the bright light of the surrounding lanterns, this person has a fat head and big ears, and a beer belly, is it not old fat or who?

"Not yet?" When the old fat saw us looking at him, he shouted again.

Obviously, if this guy hadn't shouted just now, I'm afraid that woman wouldn't have let us go so easily.

I made up my mind and didn't dare to stay in place anymore with the golden spring on my back, for fear of encountering the situation I had just encountered again.

As I was leaving, I couldn't help but turn my head to look at the woman who was holding the child.

She was walking up the wooden ladder to the tall building with the child in her arms, and seemed to notice my gaze, and turned her head to look at me.

The next moment, the corners of her mouth pulled slightly, revealing that weird smile again.

I don't know if it's my delusion, but I always feel that the smile on the face of the old man and everyone in this village is very similar to the expression on the grimace mask.

I withdrew my gaze, not daring to look any more, and walked in the direction of the old man.

The water was very cold, and even after being soaked for so long, with my physique, I couldn't help but feel that my legs were numb from the cold, and I was even more sluggish when I walked.

Coming to the bottom of the stilt building, Lao Fei walked down from the wooden ladder, glanced at me and the golden spring behind him, and said in surprise: "How did you make it look like this?" ”

As he spoke, he reached out and pulled me out of the water.

"You still mean to say it!"

I eased my nerves, and then glared at Lao Fei and said, "If you hadn't escaped from the battle, Huang Jinquan wouldn't have been injured like this, and if I hadn't arrived in time, I guess I would have lost my life." ”

"Forehead ......"

Lao Fei touched his head in embarrassment, laughed, and changed the subject: "Go upstairs, I'll introduce you to someone." ”

"Who?" I asked.

"Is it a real person or someone like these villagers?" Huang Jinquan asked again.

"It's kind of a person from this village, but ...... She is different from the people here, as for who it is, when you go up and see it, you will understand, Lao Yan should have an impression. "The old fat sells the guanzi and refuses to say who the other party is.

Seeing his expression, coupled with his sudden departure on the grassy slope, I already had a guess in my heart, but I didn't know if it was that person?

Anyway, she's upstairs, just go up and take a look.

"Brother Tianyan, you put me down, I can go by myself......"

At this time, Huang Jinquan struggled behind me to get off the ground, and said in a low voice: "My leg is not injured, I have recovered some strength after resting on your back for a while, so I always let you carry it on your back and let others see it...... Not good...... ...... will be misunderstood"

"Oh, well!"

Seeing that Huang Jinquan insisted, I had to put her off my back.

Although Huang Jinquan's legs were not injured, because of excessive bleeding, her body was extremely weak, and Lao Fei and I helped her up to the stilted building.

There is a fence on the stilt building, and there is a lantern on the left and right of the fence that is exactly the same as the one carried by the old man before.

The wooden door is open, and inside is the living room.

The living room is very simple, and there are some farm utensils in the corner, such as straw hats, shovels, wood knives, and robes. There is a square table in the middle of the living room, which looks old.

At this time, inside the table, the old man who brought us before was sitting in the master's position, and on the right side of the old man was sitting a young girl.

She was dressed in white, and in such a cold weather, she looked a little thin.

The girl's appearance is immature, and she looks no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, which is not much different from the Golden Spring.

Unlike the rest of the people in this village, this girl's face is ruddy, the complexion of a normal person, her eyebrows are like mountains, her eyes are like stars, her small mouth, red lips, and her nose are very beautiful.

Even though I've seen a lot of beautiful women, when I see her appearance at this moment, I can't help but be amazed, it's amazing.

Although she looks very young, her figure is excellent, and she has a special temperament between her gestures, which is addictive.

Among the people I have seen, Yan Xiaoying is very beautiful, and if she has long hair, I don't know how many men she will be fascinated by.

But the girl in front of her, her appearance is more beautiful than Yan Xiaoying, and with that special temperament, she can almost be compared with Jingmei.

She and Jingmei do have similarities, the only difference is that Jingmei has a sense of maturity, and now this girl is a little green.

At least that's how it looks.

Although they were both women, Huang Jinquan was obviously amazed by the girl who appeared in front of him, and at this time his eyes were staring at the beautiful and flawless face of the other party, showing an expression of amazement, envy, and even some jealousy.

It is said that jealousy is unrecognizable, and Huang Jinquan, who was sad just now, and had a bitter face because of his injury, saw the other party's appearance at this time, and even the color of pain subsided.

"Coming? Come in and drink a cup of hot tea to ward off the cold, soaking in stagnant water for so long will not taste good! ”

The old man showed me and the golden spring at the door, smiled at the moment, and waved to us as he picked up the old kettle and poured us tea.

I helped Huang Jinquan, and the two of them followed Lao Fei into the house and sat down at the table.

The old man pushed the hot tea in front of us, glanced at the girl, and said with a smile: "After running around for so long, you should be hungry too, I'll go into the kitchen to get you food, and you can talk slowly." ”

As he spoke, the old man stood up and said politely: "Don't be polite and restrained, just treat this as your own home!" ”

"Trouble Grandpa Bo!" The girl spoke at this time, and her voice was crisp and beautiful.

"No trouble, no trouble!" The old man laughed, turned around and walked into the side room.

Huang Jinquan was about to reach out and pick up the tea on the table at this time, and when I saw this, I hurriedly reached out and pressed her hand to hold the tea bowl, and made a look at her.

I don't know if there is a problem with this tea? To be on the safe side, I motioned for the latter not to drink.

Huang Jinquan realized, hurriedly put the tea bowl back on the table, and did not dare to move again.

"Drink it, there's no problem with this tea."

Sensing our actions, the girl chuckled and spoke to us.

"Oh...... That's where we don't get thirsty. ”

I smiled awkwardly, turned my head to look at the old fat sitting next to me, winked at him, and motioned for the latter to hurry up and introduce us, so as not to make the atmosphere look so awkward.

I didn't know that the old fat gave me a blank look and didn't say anything.

"That, my name is Lao Tianyan, this is Golden Spring, we came in from the outside, you ...... Probably not from this village, right? ”

In order to alleviate the embarrassment, I had to open my mouth and introduce myself to the girl.

"I know, you're from another Heavenly Mountain, right?" The girl nodded.

"You know?" I was surprised and asked, "We don't think we've seen each other before, have we?" How do you know my name? ”

As soon as the words fell, he thought about it for a while, and said secretly, it must be said by Lao Fei's big mouth, otherwise how would he know that I am from another heavenly mountain?

"Not only do I know where you're from, but I also know that you're actually here to find the traces left by the mountain god Niangniang!" The girl chuckled.

"Oh......"

When I heard this, I secretly cursed Lao Fei, this guy must have seen that the other party was beautiful, and in order to create a topic, he told everyone my secrets.

"Then you ......"

I was about to ask the other party's identity, but before the words came out, the other party seemed to know what I was thinking, and said softly: "My name is Liang Qingying!" ”

"Dance to figure out the shadow, what a good name!" I admire.

As soon as the words fell, Huang Jinquan suddenly pulled my clothes under the table, and said in a low voice: "Brother Tianyan...... She said her name was Liang Qingying......"

"I hear it, and I'm not deaf!"

I answered, and when I wondered why Huang Jinquan wanted to emphasize the other party's name repeatedly, I suddenly came to my senses, and my head suddenly exploded, and the whole person was stupid.

Liang Qingying......

Isn't that the name of the woman with the grimace mask I saw in my dream?

This...... How can it be?

I was a little dumbfounded, staring at the other party's immature and beautiful face, I was so shocked that I couldn't make my speech, and asked uncertainly: "You just said that your name is Liang Qingying?" Your surname is Liang? ”

"Hmm!" The girl nodded.

Lao Fei couldn't help it, and laughed proudly beside him.

"You...... Is it the old fat sister? The woman with the grimace mask in my dream before? I swallowed and asked again.

"Hmm!" The girl nodded again.

"How is that possible!"

Seeing the other party nodding, I couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, turned my head to look at the old fat who was laughing obscenely next to me, and then looked at the girl's beautiful face, feeling that the whole world had been turned upside down.

The old fat is so ugly, I didn't expect her sister to be so beautiful; The most important thing is that at the moment, this young girl, her age looks younger than Lao Fei, it turns out to be his sister, which is also ...... That's ridiculous, isn't it?

The most important point is that, as far as I know, Lao Fei's sister is a half-corpse and half-human existence, and she was trapped in the bronze coffin for more than 20 years before, and she is more than ten years older than me.

Such a terrible existence...... I can't get in touch with the delicate-looking girl in front of me.

In fact, before, when Lao Fei said that he wanted to introduce me to someone, I already had some suspicions that the person he said might be her sister Liang Qingying.

It's just that when I first saw this girl, I immediately denied this speculation, because she couldn't connect with the eerie woman with the grimace mask before.

I could never have imagined that the old fat sister, the legendary woman who grew up by sucking blood and was trapped in a bronze coffin for more than 20 years, would look like this, which is really surprising to me.

Unbelievably unbelievable......

The difference is too big, and now this girl looks like a harmless young lady, how can it be that kind of "thing"?
