Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Child Who Escaped from the Pile
Ai Han didn't bother to go around in circles, and asked straight to the point.
Qin Shuang was immediately stunned, she really hadn't thought about what would happen if her brother got married in the future.
Seeing Qin Shuang's stupid appearance, Ai Han didn't want to force her to ask for an answer, after all, Qin Feng was her brother who had depended on her since childhood, and she probably didn't know how to answer this question suddenly.
After a good night's sleep, Aihan took advantage of his waist to look at the birds falling on the branches outside the window, and the corners of his mouth hooked up with a touch of pride.
Looks like it's almost time!
After seeing off Qin Feng and Qin Shuang, Ai Han drove to the Li family's villa.
"Old man Li, I'm here again!"
Ai Han rushed directly to the study, at this time Li Jianjun was practicing calligraphy inside, and when Ai Han shouted his hand, the words in his pen were fainted into a large black spot like a stain.
"You stinky girl, what are you shouting! I'm so scared that my old man is blind. Li Jianjun threw the rice paper on the table into the trash can, and glared at Ai Han with some grievance.
Ai Han stuck out his tongue mischievously, "How is that kid Ji Shuang?" After so many days of drying, is it also finished to explain what should be explained? ”
Li Jianjun took off the reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, "I'm afraid that kid has collapsed now!" ”
Go to pieces?
Ai Han blinked in confusion, "Collapse what?" ”
"Do you know what the biggest blow to a person is?" Li Jianjun sat down slowly, folded his hands on his stomach, and looked at Ai Han leisurely and said.
"Lost a loved one? Wife? Friend? Ai Han racked her brains and didn't expect what it would be, after all, she had lost her relatives and friends, and her life was almost lost, what could be more big than this blow?
"It's the hope that comes with the disappointment again."
Li Jianjun shook his head, looked at a certain point in the air and said thoughtfully.
Hearing this, Ai Han pursed his lips and did not speak, indeed, it is not terrible to be disappointed and despair is not terrible for a person.
The terrible thing is that when you see hope, you find that it is just an illusion, and the real reality is a bottomless abyss.
Following Li Jianjun to the dungeon, Ji Shuang still sat on the ground against the wall like last time.
"Hey, young man of the Body of All Evils, I haven't seen you for so many days, how is it?"
Ai Han walked into the dungeon this time and squatted in front of Ji Shuang, pretending to be relaxed.
She deliberately didn't come to him the next day just to make him deeply realize that he was now desperate and that she was the only one who could save him.
Ji Shuang lazily raised his eyelids and glanced at her, "You're here." ”
Aihan sat on the ground as he did, picking up a piece of hay on the ground and playing with it with his fingertips.
"Yes, I haven't seen you for a few days, your state is much better!" His eyes glanced at the red line between Ji's neck, it seems that he is very obedient!
Ji Shuang looked at this Ai Han fixedly, "Thanks to your charm." ”
Ai Han nodded and said, "Well, you're welcome." Well, you've been thinking about it a lot for so many days. Let's talk about it! ”
"Say what?" Ji Shuang was a little confused, what did she want to know?
"Tell me when you first discovered your evil body, of course! If the average child can see evil spirits, they will only be thought to be normal. After all, it is not strange for children to be able to see dirty things, as long as they reach a certain age, they can lose this ability. So I'm curious, how did you find out? ”
Ai Han spread his hands out, as if he took it for granted.
Ji Shuang hesitated for a moment before he slowly spoke: "Do you know how to drive raw piles?" ”
Driving piles?
Ai Han couldn't help but get up, driving piles is a special custom of Chinese people in front of construction.
Before the construction project begins, a special ceremony will be held, and one or two children will be specially found and buried alive on the construction site, the purpose of which is to ensure the smooth operation of the project.
Legend has it that this method was first proposed by Lu Ban, and the ancients believed that when people broke ground in a place, it would destroy the natural feng shui of the place, and it would anger the souls of the place, so that accidents often occurred during the construction process.
Therefore, there is a "stump" to bury children alive at the construction site to ward off evil spirits to reduce accidents.
But with the progress of the times, few people still use this method.
One is because it is too cruel, and the other is that it is no longer the era of human life, people's consciousness has awakened and they have begun to learn to respect life.
Therefore, the construction industry has begun to use live chickens or sprinkle chicken blood on the four corners of the construction site instead for rituals.
Ai Han scoffed at this, she didn't expect that in the 22nd century, she would still hear about the deeds of driving stakes.
"When I was chosen to be a sacrificial boy who drove a stake, I fainted from suffocation after being buried. By the time I woke up, I was back at home, and my mother was lying on the ground covered in blood......"
Ji Shuang began to tremble as he spoke, his fists clenched tightly, and finally he slammed the ground angrily.
"Alright, don't get excited. It is also your destiny that you can escape from the brink of life and death like that, but the reincarnation of the Heavenly Dao should be regarded as exchanging your mother's life for you! Since it is in exchange, you have to cherish it. Aihan stood up and patted the dust off his body, then continued, "Come out! Come with me somewhere. ”
Ji Shuang was slightly stunned for a moment, and hurriedly stood up. But because I held one position for too long, I shook it when I stood up.
"Are you alright?" Ai Han frowned when he heard the voice and looked at him sideways, it's not okay to be so weak!
Ji Shuang quickly shook his head, stomped on the ground and regained some consciousness before following Ai Han's footsteps.
Ai Han said hello to Li Jianjun, and then took Ji Shuang directly to Panlong Mountain.
"Where is this?" Ji Shuang sat in the car, looking at the lush trees outside, his eyes fluttering.
Ai Han glanced at Ji Shuang in surprise and then moved his gaze back to the front, "Panlong Mountain!" You are a body of all evils, and you have never even heard of such a famous ghost mountain? ”
Ji Shuang shook his head a little aggrieved, he came out of a small village, and he has been locked up at home since he came to City A, if it weren't for a boss who took a fancy to his evil body, he would probably still be staying in that dark and dilapidated house!
When he drove to the top of the mountain, Ai Han stopped the car and took Ji Shuang out of the car, looked at the forest and sighed: "Come, go to the front and sit cross-legged, close your eyes and try to feel it." ”
Ji Shuang inexplicably did what Ai Han said, but there was nothing in his ears except the whirring wind.
"Didn't feel anything?" Ai Han couldn't help but wonder, it stands to reason that this body of ten thousand evils is extremely sensitive to all evil qi, this dragon mountain is famous, Ji Shuang can't feel anything when he comes here!
