Once Upon a Time in Liancun (3)

Oh, shameless.

Bai Ling sneered in her heart, they killed everyone, and they also sacrificed, and their ability to tell nonsense with their eyes open was high enough.

The old woman was shocked, and said in a trembling voice, "You, do you know Meijiang?" ”

Huang Wufeng nodded and said, "Yes, the old man also knows her?" ”

The old woman lifted her lips, sadness flashed in her eyes, as if she had aged a lot in an instant, "You guys...... Come with me. With that, she took the basket between her elbows and led the way.

Seeing this scene, Huang Wufeng couldn't help but glance at Bailing, his eyes were more proud, as if to say: Study hard, I will ask for news.

Bai Ling didn't even look at him, "The villain has a will." ”

"Hey, you're ......"

Huang Wufeng was about to reason with her, but the old woman who walked in front turned around and said, "Forgive me, the old man's legs and feet are inconvenient, and he walks slowly." ”

He regained his smile in an instant, "It's okay, the scenery here is very good, we just want to enjoy it." ”

The old woman shook her head and said abruptly, "The child's demeanor is extraordinary, he is by no means an ordinary person, how can he see the bitterness here." ”

Huang Wufeng smiled slightly, noncommittal.

Bai Ling walked past him, walked quickly to the old woman's side, and asked, "Old man, where are we going?" ”

The old woman turned her head to look at her, her expression soft, but she didn't answer, but said, "It's almost there, it's not far ahead." ”

Walking up a not very steep slope, you will find a stone statue standing tall. There was a hewn cave next to it, which was not high, covered with weeds, and not very conspicuous.

The old woman stopped in front of the stone statue and bowed three times reverently.

Only then did Bai Ling notice that her bamboo basket contained candlesticks, a few oranges, and some food. It is an offering.

However, the old woman did not take out the offerings, and after worshipping the gods, she removed the weeds from the cave next to her and led them inside.

The cave is not deep, seven or eight steps to the end, a potholed stone table against the mountain wall, on top of which is placed a fine linen dress worn by a girl, a little old, but not dusty, it can be seen that it is often tidied up.

Bai Ling looked around the cave, one was not paying attention, the soles of her feet tripped and were held by a strong hand, she turned her head to see that she was facing the bottomless eyes of Brother Shangshu, she quickly withdrew her arm, looking extremely disgusted by his touch.

However, the scholar brother was faster than her, and he withdrew his hand almost the moment he held her steady, and took two steps back quickly, avoiding her like a snake and scorpion, and he didn't mean to be tall just now.

At this time, the old woman had already put the candlestick on the stone table, put the offerings, sat on the ground, looked at the clothes, and said to herself, "Meijiang, my mother is here, my mother committed gout yesterday, and I didn't come to see you, don't blame my mother." ”

These words immediately drew Bai Ling's attention back.

She asked, "You're Mie's adoptive mother?" ”

"To me, she's no different than my own daughter." The old woman wept and chattered to the front, "This child is cute, filial, and will feel distressed when she is young, when she was ten years old, I had a serious illness and couldn't get out of bed." She went to the city every day to buy medicine for me, and every day she walked eight miles, and her feet were worn out, and she smiled and said to me, 'It's okay, mother, it doesn't hurt at all'. ”

It's okay that she doesn't mention these things, but when she mentions them, Bai Ling's mouth hooked up a sneering arc, and said, "If you don't cherish it when you're alive, what's the use of remembering it when you're dead?" I heard that after you knew her identity, you tied her to the statue and burned her, and everything has a spirit, I wonder if you will be unable to sleep night after night after you have done such evil deeds. ”

Huang Wufeng glanced at her disapprovingly, "The old man is already very sad, why do you bother to bring up the old things again." ”

Bailing said coldly, "Now that I know that I am sad, why did I go earlier?" ”

Her reaction was too intense, it sounded like a fight, but it was more like a kind of anger, Huang Wufeng was confused, "Why are you making such a big fire?" ”

Bai Ling sneered, "You can't see hypocrisy." ”

"This girl is right." The old woman wiped her tears and choked up several times, "I have little knowledge, and I am confused, and after knowing that Meijiang is a monster, I was afraid that she would hurt herself, so I helped others tie her up...... But I regretted doing it! At that time, I watched her struggle on the fire, but I did not dare to save her, for fear that the villagers would treat me as a stranger. But I kept praying, praying and praying, hoping that someone would save her. ”

Looking at her indifferent expression, a softness flashed in the old woman's eyes, and she said, "The girl looks about the same age as my daughter, and when I see you, I seem to see her." ”

Hearing this, Huang Wufeng couldn't hold back, snorted, and laughed, "Old man, you have lost your eyes, your daughter must be cuter than her." ”

These words washed away the sentimentality in the old woman's heart, she raised her wrinkled face, and suddenly said, "Actually, you are also demons." ”

Huang Wufeng couldn't help but be stunned, "Huh? This ......"

"Don't be afraid, I won't tell anyone." The old woman sighed and said, "At first glance, you are not ordinary people, you don't have half of the earthly smell on your body, come here to pay tribute to Meijiang, aren't you her kind?" But she didn't die, she was saved. I knew she couldn't forgive me, and she wouldn't come back to see me, so I kept her clothes as a little thought. ”
