Chapter 65: Parasomnias

Hearing what he said, the corners of my mouth twitched unconsciously.

What kind of hatred and what kind of grudge, as for chopping your man to death on the bed when he was newly married?

"And then?"

"After killing him, she slept next to the corpse for the night, and when she woke up in the morning, she herself didn't even know what was happening, and when she saw the corpse, she was frightened and ran out covered in blood, and if it wasn't for the maid who found out that something was wrong, she almost called the police."

"Oh? So how did she find out that she killed the person? ”

"You also know that the people in our Xiao family are too mixed, so we installed surveillance in the corridor, and it happened that she went to the kitchen in the middle of the night to get a knife, and the blood-stained kitchen knife was also found next to her bed."

I thought for a moment and stood up: "Where are the people?" If it's convenient, take me to see her now. ”

"It's not inconvenient, but I'd better say hello to you first, there is a Daoist aunt from Qiyunguan who is taking care of her."

Qiyunguan is a branch of the Black Dragon Sect, which is located in Suiyang Town, west of the Suifen River.

Because it happens to be located between the three cities of Mudanjiang, Suifenhe and Dongning, it is not far from anywhere, and it is responsive to the needs of good men and women, so it has always been the peak of incense, although I have not been there, but I have also heard that the abbot of Qiyunguan is an old real realm called Xiangyun, who has been the abbot for many years, and has a lot of means.

However, their archdeacons were all broken by Lao Tzu, what waves can she, an abbot, afford to turn over?

I didn't ask in detail, and followed Xiao Shixiong away.

But when I saw the Taoist aunt in his mouth, I realized that I thought badly.

This kind of caring for people, how could the abbot of the Black Dragon Sect do it himself?

The Taoist aunt in front of me is not only not old, but also quite smart, looking like she is sixteen or seventeen years old, with a very white and tender little face, beautiful facial features, a green silk silk pin pinned with a wooden hairpin behind her head, and a navy blue straight-collared gown lining her more and more white and dusty, if you don't open your mouth, there is really a little bit of ethereal beauty that cleanses the mortal dust and is outside the world.

But as soon as she opened her mouth, her high-pitched voice chirping like a house finch can pull you back from your astonishment and distraction at once, and it will also make you sigh in your heart, God will drop a window when he opens a door for you.

This little girl put her hands behind her back, tilted her head, and stopped in front of the bedroom with an arrogant face, directly blocking the two of us.

"The tutor said that when she is away, you can't let strangers approach Sister Xiao."

Xiao Shixiong introduced to me with a smile: "This is the closed disciple of Xiangyun Zhenren, the abbot of Qiyun Temple, Ji Ling. ”

Saying that, he said to Ji Ling: "Little Fairy Aunt, this is the gentleman I invited, let him give my granddaughter a look at the disease." ”

"Sir, just him?" Ji Ling tilted his head and looked me up and down, unconcealing the disdain on his face.

After watching it for a long time, she suddenly popped up: "Uncle, you shouldn't be here to cheat money, right?" ”

I had a mouthful of old blood in my throat, and what I wanted to say made her choke back and cough.

Am I that old? Do you look like a liar?

The first time we met, you scolded me like this, is that okay?

Only then did I understand the meaning of Xiao Shixiong's special greeting to me in advance.

He clearly knew that this little Taoist aunt was sharp and unforgiving, so he reminded me first and asked me to let her order.

Sure enough, Xiao Shixiong was stunned when he saw me, and hurriedly played a round: "Little fairy aunt, rest assured, we are world friends and know the roots." ”

Ji Ling didn't seem to be afraid of Xiao Shixiong, and still muttered quietly: "Hmph, the ...... of the thief's eyebrows and rat eyes"

But she managed to get out of the way.

While making up the second half of her sentence in my head, "It's not a good thing at first glance", I smiled wryly and followed Xiao Shixiong into the house.

As soon as I entered the door, I couldn't help but frown.

It's not how serious the situation is, on the contrary, it's too calm in the house.

There is neither yin nor life, and even the sound of our footsteps seems to be swallowed up by something, and it is surprisingly calm.

I can feel that the Xiao family has arranged a formation to ward off evil spirits, so as not to have ghosts and demons approaching, but even so, it is too quiet!

A woman in a white loungewear with a simple low ponytail sat sideways in front of the window, looking at the snow outside the window, her expression was also very calm, as if she did not notice us coming in, and did not turn her head to look.

Xiao Shixiong's expression became even more bitter: "Her name is Xiao Yao, she has been like this since that day, she has not eaten or drunk for thirteen years, and she is maintained by nutrient solution every day, and if she goes on like this......"

I was a little surprised: "Don't even drink water?" ”

Xiao Shixiong nodded heavily: "If you pour it into her, she will spit it out, only forcibly inject sedatives, and then inject nutrient solution." ”

I nodded in agreement, and then walked slowly to the window, while observing Xiao Yao's reaction.

didn't wait for me to get closer, Ji Ling, who followed closely behind, said: "Stop, didn't I tell you that you are not allowed to approach!" ”

My mind was focused on Xiao Yao, I was startled, and I couldn't help but turn around and glared at her.

My face was already fierce, and I glared, which in turn startled her, and I took a step back with a shocked face.

But as soon as I turned around, I heard her cowardly muttering behind mean: "What a fierce ......?"

I ignored her, walked to Xiao Yao's side, and followed her gaze, a thick layer of snow had accumulated on the frozen lake under the blue sky and white clouds outside the window, and there was not even a footprint on the snow, and the peaks behind the lake were not surprising, I don't know what she was looking at.

My brow furrowed even tighter, and I turned to look at her.

She is a beauty with very three-dimensional facial features, and her side face looks a bit like a mixed-race child, and if she takes a photo casually, she should be able to put it on the cover of a magazine.

It's just that such a beauty has dull eyes, haggard face, and no lust at this time.

I tried to ask, "What are you thinking?" ”

She didn't respond.

"You want to get out of here?"

Still no response.

I looked at her haggard and colorless face, and my heart suddenly moved: "Who are you missing?" ”

She turned her head sharply to look at me, a hint of ferocity flashing in her eyes, but then it was dark again.

However, this moment of reaction has made me realize what the problem may be.

I pretended not to notice, and reached out and shook it in front of her eyes.

But this time, she didn't react anymore.

I looked at Xiao Shixiong helplessly: "Don't waste your efforts in vain, withdraw the evil spirit-warding array, the people in the next room are also withdrawn, just leave someone to serve, she is not colliding with evil spirits, she is mentally ill." ”

Xiao Shixiong looked at me in surprise: "How is it possible?" ”

I stretched out my hand and dangled in front of Xiao Yao again, but she was still indifferent, so I shrugged my shoulders: "No matter what you say, you can be regarded as understanding this matter, you should be able to see that she has three souls and seven spirits, and there is nothing unclean on her body." ”

Xiao Shixiong nodded again and again, which was exactly what he felt evil.

When you collide with evil spirits, there will always be signs, and Xiao Yao is almost no different from ordinary people except for his weak breath.

"Don't think about everything, old man, there is a strange disease called parasomnias, have you heard of it?"

While talking to Xiao Shixiong, I observed Xiao Yao.

Xiao Yao seemed indifferent to our words, but I noticed that her ears trembled slightly when she heard about narrosnia.

And Xiao Shixiong obviously didn't know anything about parasomnia and shook his head when he heard it.

"To put it simply, parasomnia is an extreme manifestation of sleepwalking. The difference with sleepwalking is that they will do things that hurt themselves or others without being aware of them, and she should have had symptoms of sleepwalking before, right? ”

"Yes, this kid did sleepwalk a few times, but he only walked around the house and broke something, this time ......"

"This time it's because I'm stimulated."

"She slept alone before she got married, right?"

"Well, her mother left early, no one coaxed her, and she slept alone since she was a child."

"That's right, changes in the sleep environment will trigger a violent reaction from people with parasomnias, not to mention that there is an extra person next to the pillow."

Xiao Shixiong seemed to believe it or not: "But you just said that she was mentally ill?" ”

"Yes, it's just that there is something wrong with her brain, and she can't accept the fact that she killed her husband when she wakes up, that's why it's like this. For her disease, it is definitely much more effective to find a psychiatrist for counseling than to ask for Taoist priests and Xuanzi. ”

After a slight pause, I squinted my eyes and looked at Xiao Yao, and added: "But even if it is cured, I am afraid that I will forget a lot of things, and my habits must be different from before, which is normal." ”

When I said this, Xiao Yao's expression changed slightly, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly.

If I hadn't been studying how to capture micro-expressions for a few days, I wouldn't have noticed it.

I knew that there was a score in this matter, and I was about to find an excuse to leave, when the little Dao Gu who was holding her arms and watching the excitement next to me suddenly laughed.

I turned my head to look at her, and she asked with a sneer, "Are you going to tell Grandpa Xiao that if you want Sister Xiao to completely return to normal, you have to take the medicine you prescribed?" How much is a pair? Five thousand or ten thousand? ”

Well, she kind of thinks I'm a liar.

I couldn't help but wonder where her hostility towards me came from, was it because I was so scary?

Or was it because of my arrival that I robbed her master's business?

I shrugged my shoulders helplessly, a little girl who is not an adult, she has to pretend to be an old man in front of others, which is really annoying.

But what can I do, and I can't beat her.

Or, find an opportunity to pit her master, which can be regarded as repaying her for this "cheap" revenge?

Can you pull it down, I'm a big man, what do you have to do with her?

Of course, I didn't have to explain anything to her.

But I didn't expect that she would be endless.

"Grandpa Xiao, where did you find a liar, the deception has been exposed, and he still doesn't leave, he is really thick-skinned."

Xiao Shixiong wanted her to say less, but before she could speak, she preemptively scolded me again: "Did I say something wrong?" Swindler! ”

This girl, less than ten minutes after meeting, how many times did she say that I was a liar?

I gave her a blank look: "The little girl knows a fart, adults talk, and children don't intervene!" ”

As soon as Xiao Shixiong saw that the two of us were going to quarrel, he hurriedly stopped between the two of us: "Okay, okay, it's all my own people, let's not say a word, this is not the place to talk, let's talk in another place." ”

Ji Ling finally closed his mouth, but as if he had made a great contribution, he raised his head and hummed out of the room.
