Chapter 597: Brother Xiao Zhou
After she said this, Mao Zhaoying also noticed that there was a shadowy light and shadow that fell from the tree behind Su Musha. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info He didn't have a natural yin and yang eye, so naturally he didn't see it, and the light and shadow were actually a ghost with black and scorched skin all over his body.
"Xiao Su, be careful!" Mao Zhaoying shouted, raised his fingers, flew out a piece of rune paper, and threw it at the ghost. At the same time, he drew the peachwood sword behind him and rushed towards the direction of Su Musha.
After Su curtain fell to the ground, he turned around to take a look, but saw that the rune paper was mixed with huge mana, and the ghost behind him flexibly dodged, and his body sank into the trunk of the tree and disappeared.
"Brother Mao, don't be impulsive!" Su Musha hurriedly blocked in front of Mao Zhaoying, stretched out his arm, and with a flick of his palm, he covered Mao Zhaoying's wrist holding the sword.
"I know this ghost."
Mao Zhaoying withdrew the sword at this time, "Do you know it?" But looking at the way it looks, it doesn't seem to remember you, and it even wants to hurt you. ”
Su Musha sighed, the ghost's memory is relatively poor, what can be done? Besides, he and Brother Xiao Zhou haven't seen each other for more than five years, and it is natural that he doesn't remember himself.
That's right, this ghost is the son of Mrs. Zhou. Mrs. Zhou gave birth to this son when she was nearly in her fifties. The age difference between this child and Su Musha is not much, and Su Musha is very good. So Su Musha has always called him "Brother Little Zhou".
When you are old, you should have been loved by your parents in the palm of your hand. But when Brother Xiao Zhou was working in the field, their company suddenly caught fire, and Brother Xiao Zhou was burned to death in the office in order to save people. Mrs. Zhou and her husband received a sum of compensation, as well as a "good citizen" award from the government. But without children, what is the use of all this money and false name? And the grief of losing a child is not something that can be remedied by these things.
That money is a lot, enough for Mrs. Zhou and her wife to live the rest of their lives. But they were not short of money, and Mrs. Zhou's wife died of illness within two years because she was hit too hard. Mrs. Zhou is left alone, but fortunately, the other relatives of the Zhou family have a good heart, and those juniors are all filial, which also makes Mrs. Zhou's later life not so difficult and lonely.
Ahem, it's far away.
The ghost who attacked Su Musha was Mrs. Zhou's son, and his charred flesh and skin were what he looked like when he died. And he wanted to attack Su Musha, probably because Su Musha took his kite.
After listening to Su Musha's explanation, Mao Zhaoying and Lu Yun couldn't help but sigh. It's a shame to hear from that.
Su Musha walked to the tree, reached out and knocked on the trunk, and said softly: "Brother Xiao Zhou, it's me, Su Musha." Don't you remember me? ”
“…… Su curtain cover. A charred skull poked out of the trunk, and almost all of its features and skin were burned and blurred. The eyes are also blood-red, and in a group of lonely ghosts, they also look extremely terrifying.
He tilted his head and said, "Su Musha? I seem to have some impressions......"
Su Musha stood motionless, letting him look at it, the smile on his face was shallow, and even a little well-behaved. Just like when I got along with Brother Xiao Zhou many years ago.
After a while, the ghost's expression gradually changed, and his fierce expression softened a little, "Xiao Su, is it Xiao Su?" I remember you. ”
Su Musha nodded.
The ghost's body finally emerged from the trunk of the tree. "After so many years, Xiao Su's appearance has really changed a lot. Brother Xiao Zhou didn't recognize you just now, and almost hurt you, Brother Xiao Zhou apologized to you here. ”
Su Musha shook his head, "Brother Xiao Zhou, I don't blame you. ”
Xiao Zhou laughed, and couldn't help but stretch out his hand to rub Su Musha's head like in the past, but when he saw his translucent palm, he withdrew his hand gloomily, "I used to think that Xiao Su, you are different from ordinary people." You were the first person to see me since I died. ”
Its gaze moved behind Su Musha, looking at Mao Zhaoying and Lu Yun with scrutiny and vigilance in their eyes. He hadn't forgotten how the man had used the talisman paper and the peachwood sword against him. "Who are these two people?"
Su Musha said: "One is my cousin, and the other is my friend. None of them have any malicious intent, Brother Zhou, don't worry. ”
*****
The three of them sat around the tree, and Xiao Zhou said: "I'm really angry today, my mother used to find my kite, but I don't know which bear child secretly took it, flew the kite, ran around in the mountains, and finally recklessly hung the kite on the trunk of the tree." When I followed the kite and looked for it, I didn't see my mother at all! So when you go to pick up the kite again, I think someone has come to make trouble, that's why I'm so angry. ”
Su Mu covered his heart and said No wonder, the Qingming Festival is a day that only once a year allows the soul of the deceased to be reunited with his relatives for a short time, and it was destroyed by a bear child, and whoever he put it on must be angry.
Mao Zhaoying has already come to Tianyan, and at this time, he can not only see Xiao Zhou, but also hear his voice. When he finished speaking, Mao Zhaoying asked, "That kid fainted on the mountain, is his soul with you?" ”
Xiao Zhou shook his head, "Although I am angry, I don't have any harmful intentions, the soul leaving the body is too dangerous for a child, I naturally wouldn't do such a thing." ”
Mao Zhaoying looked at him carefully, and saw that his eyes were clear, and there was no intention of dodging, not like he was lying. And they believed him. "Do you know where the child's soul has gone?"
Xiao Zhou was silent. But it was clear that he knew the truth.
Su Musha saw that the atmosphere was not right, so he spoke: "Although that family is not likable. But after all, the child is innocent, if the soul is away from the body for too long, the child may be called an idiot, and even his life will be in danger. Brother Xiao Zhou, if you are still angry, the father of the child will come up the mountain in a while, and I will ask him to apologize to you in person in front of your tombstone, okay? ”
Xiao Zhou smiled bitterly, "In your eyes, have I become a real villain?" It's not that I don't want to, it's just that the kid's soul was taken away by a bunch of very dangerous guys. I treat you as my own brother in my heart, and naturally I don't want to see you in danger. ”
Su Musha only said that he was not afraid of danger, and he was definitely capable of saving his life.
Xiao Zhou had nothing to say now, he floated up, and finally compromised, "Okay, I'll take you there." But if the situation is not right, you must flee as soon as possible. Those guys are so vicious. ”
Naturally, everyone nodded in agreement.
They followed Xiao Zhou's ghost, and when they passed by his tombstone, Su Musha placed the kite in front of the tombstone, looked at the obviously carefully prepared sacrifices in front of the tombstone, and sighed in his heart.
He suddenly said: "Brother Xiao Zhou, after so many years, you should be able to be reincarnated, why don't you want to leave?" ”
Xiao Zhou also sighed, "You should understand my concerns." I really can't worry about my mother, I'm gone, if she has a disaster or something in the future, I can't take care of her at all. Every year during the Qingming Festival, I have to come back from the underworld, just to see her old man and hear him talk to me. Seeing her getting more and more emaciated day by day, I felt sadder than anyone else. Although every year when he came back, his mother couldn't see him at all, and she couldn't hear him at all, Xiao Zhou's heart was still extremely satisfied.
"I am an unfilial child, in order to save people, but ignore the feelings of my parents. I want to stay in the underworld for a few more years, spend more time with my mother, and do my unfinished filial piety in my life. ”
Lu Yun's heart was uncomfortably tight, and he couldn't help but move his gaze to his master.
Su Musha said: "But do you know that every time your mother talks about it, she hopes that you can be reincarnated as soon as possible, and you can be born in a good family in the next life, and have a pair of parents who love you." so that you don't have to suffer in this life anymore. ”
Mao Zhaoying's brows furrowed, "Xiao Su, don't say it." ”
Su Musha stopped talking, but Xiao Zhou was silent, and he had all the feelings in his heart.
In this way, the three of them walked silently all the way until they came to their destination.
This is another hill not far from the Tomb Mountain, but there are no bones buried here. What's even more peculiar is that on a clearing on the top of this mountain, there is not a single plant growing, and the whole ground presents a strange brown-red, not a single green, how strange it looks.
Of course, the most bizarre thing is that the tomb mountain has always been a separate mountain, and the surrounding area is not connected to other peaks at all.
***********************************
"This is, the formation obstacle?" Lu Yun looked around, and a familiar feeling rose in his heart. If it was really that kind of formation, then it would not be strange that such a strange place existed here, but no one had been discovered.
"The little girl's insight is good." Xiao Zhou praised, "When I first strayed into this place, I was really shocked, because I never knew that such a place existed before. Later, he was a knowledgeable old man who had existed in the tomb mountain for many years...... Ghost. I told you that there has been a formation here since ancient times, called the 'Blind Eye' Formation. And tell me that there are some extremely vicious things in this formation, so I shouldn't go near here at all when I'm fine. ”
"On that day, I watched several ghosts come out of this place and drag the child's soul and spirit out of his body. I tried to protect the kid, but I didn't even have the ability to get close to the ghosts......"
"Fortunately, they didn't take the opportunity to come out and hurt people, otherwise, people who come here to worship their ancestors will probably be in danger."
