Chapter 164: The Outline of Events

'It's a sad heart. Listen to the mountains and trees from afar, the wind and rain are combined, and the high and low sound is low. ’

'Bit by bit, bit by bit, and by word, and sad blood and tears. For this injury, turn to the memory of the wilderness. ’

Wang Po's house.

The troupe on stage sang bloody.

The white silk yarn, the candle flame is lit up, and there is a light rain at night, which makes it even more desolate and nowhere to speak.

Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law cried and fainted a few times, invited a doctor, prepared a few doses of soothing soup, and fell asleep sadly an hour ago.

There were two young grandchildren, a man and a woman, who were left running around the courtyard, not quite knowing what had happened.

Tang Ling sat in the front yard of Wang Po's house, knocking melon seeds on the seat in the corner, and taking a sip of the rice wine in front of him from time to time.

The mouth is sour, and Tang Ling can't touch the taste for a long time.

But he couldn't stand the persuasion of the so-called group of like-minded teenagers at the table, so Tang Ling had to take a few drinks from time to time.

"The daughter-in-law of the Wang family is also a pitiful, the man died in the mountains a few years ago, and now the mother-in-law of the Wang family is also..." Looking at the immature children running around in the courtyard, a young man sitting next to Tang Ling couldn't help but sigh.

"I heard that there is a lot to explore about the death of Wang Dalang?" Tang Ling peeled another peanut, put it in his mouth and chewed it carefully.

Eating in the realm of dreams is a peculiar experience, what taste, what aroma, you can smell in your nose, you can taste in your mouth, only this stomach is empty.

Rao is like this, and Tang Ling also enjoys it very much.

From the so-called 'lunch' at home, he has begun to be shocked by the food culture of ancient China.

'Don't get tired of eating, don't get tired of being fine', this is simply meticulous to the extreme.

The freshest spring bamboo shoots, as long as the most crisp and tender part of the bamboo shoots, the best cloud leg thin slices, do not have excess condiments, thicken on the table, a handful of tender shallots, eat in the mouth is the taste of spring, salty and fairy, and have a freshness.

Then take the fresh oranges, swirl them in three-quarters, peel them carefully, hollow out the flesh, and squeeze out a little juice. Then take the crab in the lake, peel it carefully, make the crab roe and crab meat in one place, put it in a good orange peel, cover it with an orange lid, add water, wine, vinegar and steam it, and then eat it with salt and vinegar dipping sauce.

These dishes were just two dishes in Tang Ling's lunch meal, and in comparison, what the Purple Moon Era ate was pig food.

Was the ancient China of the pre-civilization so extravagant? is just a big squire, so particular, what will those high-ranking officials and magnates eat?

Tang Ling was curious, but at the same time, he also had a question, what the Dream Domain showed was the real life of ancient China? Or is it deliberately exaggerated? If it is real life, then what he is experiencing now has really happened in history?

Tang Ling frowned, and unconsciously took another sip of rice wine, he felt that he had grasped something very important, which would be of great help to the Dream Domain in the future, but there were some things that still needed to be proven.

At this moment, a brittle girl interjected: "Second Brother Tang, if you want to mention the death of this Wang family's eldest man, I know some truths, which are much more reliable than those who are splashy and long-tongued." ”

"Oh?" Tang Ling raised his eyebrows, and there were teenagers around him who laughed and laughed, and Second Young Master Tang was afraid that he was looking for something to do chivalry.

But the girl who spoke ignored the group of teenagers, stared at Tang Ling with a pair of big eyes, and said, "My brother is the corpse that the county catches quickly and collects in person. It is rumored that it was a zombie who caused chaos, but the cause of death was clearly that the internal organs were shattered by a palm, and then, then..."

At this, the girl's face turned a little pale.

On the mourning hall, under the candlelight, two miserable white lanterns swayed in the wind, the dark solid wood coffin reflected the candle flame brightly, the two children of the Wang family ran around the coffin, and the older girl shouted: "Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, get up quickly, there are many guests at home." ”

"Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, there are still many delicious foods at home." The little boy, who was still talking with a milky voice, also shouted loudly.

The slaps of the two children kept patting the coffin, making a 'bang' sound, and the whole coffin was trembling slightly.

"What's next?" Tang Ling glanced at the big black coffin, and the ignorant childish boy didn't care much about it, and then asked.

Then, it was bitten in a mess, but the tooth marks were not some rumored zombies. Rather, they were divided into two kinds of tooth marks, one of man, and the other of a beast. The girl finished speaking in one breath, and quickly lowered her head, not daring to look at the mourning hall.

But the young man next to him was unconvinced: "Why aren't you making zombies?" If you say no, what are you afraid of? I didn't even dare to look at the coffin, and I was not as bold as the two little boys. ”

"Three people died this month, and they didn't have a good piece of meat on them. If it were an ordinary murder, who would eat that human flesh? It is rumored that the human brain is also prying, and the brain is eaten. Another young man, suddenly loud, made a claw-stretching strange gesture, bluffing the girl.

The girl screamed in fright, and on the other side of the mourning hall, the little granddaughter of the Wang family was very happy, clapped her palms and laughed loudly: "Mother-in-law is getting up, mother-in-law is getting up." ”

"Huh?" When the girl heard this, she was so frightened that tears were about to come out.

Tang Ling smiled slightly, stood up, walked over with his hands behind his back, and took the two children one by one before arriving at the mourning hall, and said, "Don't make noise, don't make trouble, mother-in-law is tired, let her rest for a while." Wait, Chef fried fruit, you wait to eat the fruit. ”

When the two children heard that they were going to eat the fruit, they clapped their hands and cheered and left.

Tang Ling squinted at the two little boys leaving, and then glanced at the hall again, in the hall there was the chairman, his cheap father in the dream domain was talking to several respected old people in the town at this time.

And his cheap eldest brother is writing a book on the side, which should be something like an obituary, but the content should be less than a persuasion to the people in the town, and persuade the people in the town not to believe in the strange force.

Because the old man of the Tang family mentioned it at noon, this family is closed, and the people are panicked, after all, it is not a reason, as the first household in the town, they must stand up to correct the atmosphere.

Because of this, there was this grand white event paid by the Tang family at night, and under the face of Master Tang, everyone in the town came.

First, I also want to hear the explanation of this matter from people with heads and faces.

Second, if there are more people, there will be no fear.

But Tang Ling couldn't help laughing, the cheap dad was upright and worried about the people, but the door in the house was closed during the day, and he was very nervous when it was open.

At this time, several old people led by Master Tang Ling didn't know if there was a dispute, and they were a little excited when they looked at it.

Tang Ling didn't care, but slowly walked around the black coffin, and gently touched the coffin with his left hand, as if he wanted to know what kind of good wood 'recipe' the Tang family had made for it.

The troupe continued to sing lively, the previous scene was too miserable, but at this time it was replaced by the lingering and sympathetic "Phoenix Seeking the Phoenix", listening to the young girls were fascinated, and all kinds of eyes were intertwined during the banquet, and their hearts were hidden.

"Ancient Huaxia people, good SAO." Tang Ling didn't go back to the table in the corner, but instead chose a table closest to the mourning hall to sit on.

He is not accustomed to this collective 'lustful' scene, the string of his love has not yet opened, and several girls with spring in their eyes looked at him, and they were all glared back by him.

It's a good fuss, it's not fun.

The opera here is singing lively, and the chef in charge of the banquet over there has already prepared some fruit and dim sum.

After all, it was the Tang family who made a move, and there was no shortage of dried fruits, fresh fruits, and pastry fruits, Tang Ling sat next to this mourning hall, and he was eating and drinking, and the old man of the Tang family glanced at this side for some reason, and when he saw Tang Ling's appearance, he couldn't help but glare at him fiercely.

And Han Ye, who had been standing beside Master Tang, walked out and shouted, "What are you talking like?" After going out for two days, you became that hungry ghost? Look at your big brother, and look at you again. Go to the back room and accompany your eldest brother. ”

"No, no." Tang Ling refused with a grin.

I don't know if it's an illusion, when Han Ye said the word 'ghost', the wind was stronger at night, blowing in bursts, and it was very cold.

Here, there were many people, and Han Ye couldn't argue with Tang Ling too much, so he had to glare at Tang Ling and whispered: "Anyway, you are the second young master, pay attention to your face." ”

Tang Ling stuffed a delicate pastry made of unknown pieces into his mouth, and nodded in agreement.

Seeing that Han Ye was angry, he could only stomp his feet and turn around and enter the house.

At this time, the two little grandchildren of Wang's mother-in-law family held a chopstick, and the chopsticks were inserted with fried fruits that had just come out of the pot and surrounded them again.

The childish boy was not afraid, so he walked around the seat where Tang Ling was sitting twice, and then ran to the coffin.

At this moment, another group of children, leading a big yellow dog, also began to talk in a whisper.

"My dad beat me to death in the afternoon." The childish child who spoke should not brag, and the bruises on the corners of his mouth can't deceive people.

"My mother punished me for kneeling for an hour, and I still can't stand up straight." Another boy whispered.

"Then what you saw, did you tell your father?" The little boy holding the big yellow dog asked softly.

"I said it, my father and mother scolded me for being dazzled, not only punished me, but also forbade me to talk to others." The last boy shrunk his neck.

"My father didn't say whether I believed it or not, but I had to lead the rhubarb wherever I went tonight." The boy who spoke first added.

Rheum? Tang Ling smiled, I'm afraid of the dog you are referring to, right?

And these children, with Tang Ling's amazing memory, how could they forget? Wasn't it the crazy children he met this morning?

In the afternoon, the incident was also quite big, and several families cried and shouted that they couldn't find the child, and the child was eaten by monsters.

There are also people who talk about zombies, the big men in the town and county don't do anything, and the child is now gone, so he has to sue Lord Qingtian.

As a result, the child was soon found, and it was found at the house of Mrs. Wang.

It turned out that it was just a few children who sneaked out to see the excitement.

Thinking of this, Tang Ling grabbed a handful of fruits, Shi Shiran walked towards these children, and the two little grandsons of Wang's mother-in-law squatted next to the big black coffin and ate fried fruits.

"Come, tell my brother, what did you see?" Tang Ling smiled and sent out all the fruits in his hand.

A few of the children took the fruit, but one by one they hesitated and did not speak.

Tang Ling was not in a hurry, glanced at the big black coffin, and took out several big coins from his arms.

"Sugar gourd, noodle people, what do you want to buy? Whoever tells me, to whom the big money is given. Tang Ling smiled like an old fox.

The dog, who was called Rhubarb, seemed to be a little afraid of Tang Ling, and lay at Tang Ling's feet, wagging his tail and showing his belly, looking very unproductive.

Compared to the dog in the Purple Moon Era, it is cute I don't know how many times, Tang Ling reached out and pinched the dog's face, looking like I think you are very cute.

The dog's face was torn out of shape, but the big dog was still 'humming and chirping' to please, just like an adult, you are happy.

At this moment, a child finally mustered up the courage and took a large coin from Tang Ling's other hand.

Then he whispered: "Granny Wang was eaten, her brain was eaten, I went around the back to look, the boss has a hole, and it is all empty." ”

"My stomach was cleaned." Another child also stepped forward and took a large coin.

Tang Ling smiled, but his eyes gradually deepened.

The children were talking about their discoveries, while Tang Ling was touching the rhubarb, and at the same time 'uh-huh' agreed, asking some inexplicable questions.

"You say, what kind of hole is a hole in your brain?"

"Stomach gouged open? What does it look like from the outside? ”

"The back of the head, I mean the back of the head, is there a wound?"

"yes, the brain hasn't been eaten, has it?"

What do children understand? I only think that the second young man of the Tang family is afraid that he is not strangely interested, and the questions he asks are so infiltrating.

But children are also honest and say whatever they see.

Tang Ling groaned, and behind him, the two little grandsons began to knock on the coffin again, "Mother-in-law, eat the fruit, the fruit is fragrant and crisp." ”

This scene caused many women to cry and feel pitiful.

At the same time, the old man of the Tang family also walked out of the hall with a few pages of manuscript paper.

The troupe consciously stopped singing at this time, and the charming thoughts of those boys and girls were also suddenly interrupted, and then they remembered that it was clearly a white thing with a bit of horror, what kind of lovesickness did they secretly say?

Master Tang walked onto the stage.

The five hundred or so people in the courtyard suddenly became quiet.

With a sad expression, Master Tang looked at the villagers and said loudly: "Recently, my Qingxi Town is not very peaceful. ”

"There are cannibal demons, and murderers roam here. There are also good deeds, who take advantage of this state of affairs to spread false rumors and cause trouble to people's hearts. ”

"As the first household in the town, my Tang Jili is very angry, very heartbroken, and very helpless."

"When it comes to killing cannibal demons, I can't sit idly by in Qingxi Town, and at the same time, I can't let rumors spread. This matter is gathered here while the neighbors are here, and it will be discussed later. But Wang Po died as the third person in the town, under the evil deeds of the perpetrators. As a fellow villager, I will give you a ride on your behalf. ”

After saying this, the old man of the Tang family took the obituary and walked to the top of the mourning hall step by step with majestic square steps.

Wang's two little grandchildren were still calling for their mother-in-law, and the daughter-in-law of the Wang family was helped out with a white face.

The group of children who had been questioned by Tang Ling before ran to the outside seat to play, and somehow, the rhubarb whose faces were 'touched' by Tang Ling began to run wildly in the courtyard, it turned out that they saw an old hen picking food on the ground, and couldn't help but chase it.

The child called for rhubarb and followed behind.

In the courtyard, there is a picture of chickens flying and dogs jumping, and the children are in chaos, how can there be a trace of mourning?

The old man of the Tang family frowned, but it was not easy to say about the child, so he had to unfold the obituary in his hand and read it word by word.

"Woohoo, the prince of the Liu family..."

"Mother-in-law... Why can't you get up quickly? With the solemn and heavy voice of the old man of the Tang family, the little granddaughter of the Wang family stopped eating the oil fruit, and called her mother-in-law with a crying voice.

Seeing his sister's appearance, the younger male grandson directly raised his head and began to cry.

The daughter-in-law of the Wang family was weak and had no strength to take care of the child, but looking at the child's sad appearance, she seemed to have felt the death of her mother-in-law, and couldn't help but feel sad again, bowed her head and cried.

There is a layer of dark clouds in people's hearts, and the voice of the old man of the Tang family reading the obituary is gradually extremely angry, accusing the murderous cannibal demon of ignoring the principles of heaven, ignorance of humanity, and his heart is like a demon in hell.

'Giggles', the mother who was chased by Rhubarb rushed under the coffin.

Rhubarb also chased after him excitedly.

At the bottom of the coffin, the hen seemed to suddenly become a little confused by the crying of the two children, and just circled around the coffin.

And Rhubarb also chased under the coffin at this time, stretched out his mouth and bit at the hen.

"Rhubarb, you can't bite it, you have to pay money if you bite it." The group of children chased after them, and the owner of the rhubarb, who was running at the front, shouted and reached out to grab the rope that was hanging around the rhubarb's neck.

Rhubarb seemed to understand the little master's words, and at this time, he made a frightened 'woo woo' sound, and one dodged, from under the coffin, and the other side quickly rushed out.

A few children ran too fast and didn't have time to move their hands and feet, and 'poof' bumped into them in a row.

Frightened, the hen under the coffin 'fluttered' her wings and flew out very embarrassed.

But the coffin placed on the two benches was knocked to the ground by several children.

Tang Ling couldn't help frowning when he saw this scene.

At this time, before the time for burial, the coffin lid that had not been nailed to the coffin fell to the ground and fell apart.

With a dull sound of 'boom', the old man of the Tang family, who was reading the obituary in front of the coffin, was also startled.

Looking back, the body of the princess happened to roll out of the coffin, and the remains that were only slightly tidied up, and the longevity clothes worn by the concubine were also lifted.

'The gnawed left hand is clean and slippery, leaving no flesh behind. ’

'The abdomen that has been disemboweled, with a large neat incision, like a grinning mouth. Flesh and blood were white. ’

His neck twisted, revealing the hole in the back of his head. ’

How could the old man of the Tang family ever see this battle? Suddenly frightened, his soul flew away, and he took several steps backwards.

However, the two little grandsons of the Wang family who were crying, who were not afraid at all, did not want the fried fruit in their hands, and rushed towards the corpse of Granny Wang.

A few children who were in trouble were also stunned in place, looking at the scattered coffins at a loss, and did not dare to move.

"Mother-in-law." The little grandson grabbed Granny Wang's other cold hand.

At this moment, a gust of night wind blew the candle flame above the mourning hall swaying, and the white lantern fell directly to the ground.

With a soft sound of the lantern falling to the ground, Wang Po's eyes suddenly opened, and the hand held by the little grandson also clenched the little grandson's hand at once, and pulled the little grandson over, and the whole person sat up.

"Tricked corpses." The crowd began to shout.

"Ah, my child." The daughter-in-law of the Wang family screamed hoarsely.

At this time, a figure jumped high and flew directly over the head of the Tang family's master, and before people could see it clearly, they saw a silver knife flash.

A stiff arm holding the little grandson's hand was cut off directly.

The next moment, the knife light twisted a knife flower and slashed it in another direction, and one of Granny Wang's heads was neatly cut off, rolled to the side with a 'bang', and was grabbed by a hand and held it directly in her hand.

It's a corpse, it's really a corpse.

But before the corpse could be rebellious, it was beheaded?

The people who were suspicious, only then did they look carefully, the knife cut off the arm of Wang Po, and cut off Wang Po's head with another knife, and the person who grabbed the head in his hand was not the second young master of the Tang family-Tang Chongwu?

In the shocked gaze of the people, Tang Ling then looked carefully at the skull in his hand by candlelight, part of the gray and white matter in the cranial cavity was removed, but a layer of dense cranial nerve web as intricate as a spider's web was intact.

It's kind of interesting.

At this moment, a message finally appeared in Tang Ling's mind.

'Investigate the 'zombie cannibalism' incident in Qingxi Town, and find out the truth of the incident within three days. Completion: 0 percent. ’

The quest in the Dream Realm has always been incredibly simple, and does not indicate how far you need to go to the quest or whether you need to kill the quest target.

It doesn't give any clues.

However, Tang Ling's expression did not fluctuate at all, he put down the head in his hand, looked at all the villagers, and said very calmly: "Put Granny Wang back in the coffin." I'm afraid I won't cheat the corpse anymore. ”

"Take advantage of this night, and choose twenty strong men. Take me on a trip to the south and leave the post. As soon as Tang Ling's words fell, everyone panicked.

What is the place of Nan Ligang? It is the place where the ancestral grave of Cheonggye Town has been located since ancient times.

Tonight's corpse fraud incident is already very terrifying, and you have to go south to leave the post? Even the most courageous man in the town did not dare to follow Tang Ling.

It was Han Ye, who took a deep look at Tang Ling, and didn't seem to expect that this second young man, who had been talked about by him, would have such a powerful skill.

He slowly stood up and said softly, "I'll go with you." ”

"Master Han, don't let Chongwu mess around. Let's talk about tonight's things, go to Jinan and leave the post? "The old man of the Tang family didn't expect that he, the second son, would have such amazing skills, but let him go to the south to leave the post, it wouldn't work, in case there are three long and two short....

"If you don't go south and leave the post. There will be no peace in the town. Tang Ling originally wanted to call his father, but in the end, it was just a dream, and it was really difficult for him to call his father, so he simply expressed his attitude directly.

Then Tang Ling no longer paid attention to the old man of the Tang family, but looked at everyone: "As a man, shouldn't you stand up?" Think about it one day, the old mother in the family, squeamish, and childish have become like Granny Wang, do you still have the face to stand in the world? ”

This sentence made the boys in Qingxi Town boil, and some teenagers stood up first: "I'll go." ”

"I'm going too."

The Tang family hid in the hall, suspicious, looking at their two words with a puzzled face, how could just a few words have more incitement than their own book of ten thousand words?

**

Quiet town.

Perhaps a few drizzles in a row exhausted the dark clouds in the sky.

In the night, which was still a little cold, a hazy yellow moon gradually revealed its face.

It's just a light first quarter moon, but in the end it also brings a glimmer of light to the dark night.

Dogwood, star anise, bay leaves... Throw the boiling water into the pot one by one.

The finely chopped shredded meat, along with some half-cooked offal, is also put into the pot and simmered.

In the delicate enamel bowl, a bowl of white mixed with red sugar, sprinkled with a layer of honey syrup almond tofu looks very moving under the delicate copper lamp.

'I don't know what to do, go deep, the living can die, and the dead can live. ’

'Death can live. Those who are born and cannot be resurrected, and those who die and cannot be resurrected, are not loved'

'The love in the dream, why should it not be true, there are few people in the world in the dream...'

The song "Peony Pavilion" is sung in the house, the singing is round, one breath and three sighs, and it is very appropriate.

The timbre is lingering and sympathetic, touching the heartstrings, and when you smell it, you can't help but resonate. I want to ask the daughter of the He family, there is such a natural sound.

"What is this hour? Not home yet? The singing stopped, and an inquiry with a faint sigh came from the room again.

**

A yellow moon?

Tang Ling looked at the moon in the sky in a daze, although his expression was so calm, his heart was as shocked as a stormy wave.

"Why the yellow moon? Is the reality reflected in the Dream Realm really reality? Tang Ling was distraught.

South Departure - the deceased are difficult to leave, and the living are difficult to give up.

It's hard to leave, but it's all here to be separated.

On the first quarter of the moon, after the drizzle, the cold night breeze, but the people who came here did not mourn.

The torches burned brightly, illuminating everyone's faces with unease.

Two new graves have been dug up, and the coffins are empty.

It seemed that he had expected such a result, and Tang Ling, who was already the backbone of everyone, looked very calm at this time.

He stared blankly at the sky, as if he was only interested in the hazy moon in the sky.

He didn't say a word, and people stood here in fear, unable to guess what was in his heart.

"Second son Tang. What is your opinion? At this moment, someone finally couldn't help but step forward and asked Tang Ling.

Tang Ling shook his head and said, "What else can you think?" In ten miles and eight villages, there are always several people who die. ”

"As for what will happen in Qingxi Town? It's hard to say, it's hard to say. ”

In Tang Ling's mind, the whole incident had already sketched a vague outline, and now he needed a little information.

As long as a little information is enough, he has to go to the county and borrow the county chronicles to read.
