Chapter Seventy-Four: The Python Blocks the Way
That arm stretched longer and longer, and at last it was almost beyond my reach! Then, he grabbed Xiaofeng's feet and neck tightly.
As the hand just grabbed Xiaofeng, Xiaofeng also woke up suddenly! After seeing this situation in front of me, I couldn't help but scream. The two legs started kicking the arm underneath! The body began to sway from side to side. There were several times when I almost couldn't catch her!
I couldn't help but say loudly: "Xiaofeng, don't move yet!" Otherwise, you'll fall! ”
Hearing my words, Xiaofeng really didn't dare to move! However, he still shouted at me: "Brother Lin, hurry up and save me!" Pull me up! ”
I pulled Xiaofeng up hard, gritted my teeth and said, "Don't you ...... Don't talk! I'm struggling! ”
Even though I say so. However, the strength of the hand in the Yellow River below is even greater! Xiaofeng and I began to be pulled down little by little!
Just when I couldn't hold on anymore and fell with it. Suddenly, the second uncle's voice sounded from behind me: "Lin Shuo, hold on!" I'll deal with it! ”
Suddenly hearing the words of the second uncle, my spirit suddenly shook. I don't know where the strength comes from, but it maintains a balance with the strength of the hand below!
The second uncle quickly took out the blood money from his pocket. Then, a long red rope was tied to the blood money. Only then did he snort coldly: "The universe is a mirror, the heaven and the earth are the spirit, the void is dictated, and the universe is shattered!" ”
After speaking, he threw the blood money directly.
Blood Money let out a buzz. In the end, it hit directly on that arm. There was immediately a puff of green smoke from that arm, and Xiao Feng let go. Disappeared into the river!
I worked hard with my second uncle and pulled Xiaofeng up from below.
As soon as I came up, Xiaofeng threw herself into my arms and cried. I gently patted her on the shoulder and said, "It's okay! Don't worry! We'll definitely solve your problem! ”
Xiaofeng didn't say anything, just cried vigorously. The pain that had been suppressed in her heart for so many years was all poured out at this moment!
After crying for a while, we started walking back. After all, there are more important things waiting for us to deal with!
On the way, I asked the second uncle where he had just been. Why haven't I found him? And when you called him, you didn't get a single response?
The second uncle told me that he had been led to a place similar to the Ecstasy Formation. That's why you're stuck there! It took a long time to get out.
Hearing the second uncle say this, I subconsciously looked at Xiaofeng. Then, he asked again, "Will she still set up the Ecstasy Array?" ”
The second uncle shook his head and said, "It's not her!" In my opinion, this ecstasy must have been left behind a long time ago. It should have been arranged by the river official in the mouth of the old patriarch. I didn't expect it to trap me! ”
I nodded and said, "I'm glad you came out in time." Otherwise, I'm afraid Xiaofeng and I will all be here tonight! ”
And so, as we talked, we walked back.
At the foot of the hill in the village cemetery, I saw Joe Fat and them. At this time they were standing there quietly, not going up the mountain.
We walked over, and I asked the village chief, "Village chief, why don't you go up the mountain yet?" ”
As a result, the village chief ignored me and just stood there quietly.
I was slightly stunned, and then I could see that something was wrong with them!
I saw that each of them was so expressionless, standing in place. No matter how much we talked to them, they didn't react at all.
I hurriedly searched in the crowd, but I didn't see the fat man.
Why did these people suddenly become like this? Also, Where did Fat Joe go?
With a stomach full of questions, I turned my head to look at my second uncle.
The second uncle didn't say anything, just raised his hand and patted it lightly on the back of everyone's head.
In a few moments, everyone came to their senses!
I hurriedly asked them what had happened.
The village chief recalled and said, "We don't know exactly what happened! However, as we walked here to get about to go up the mountain, Mr. Joe suddenly stopped us. We thought he had something he wanted to tell us! But then we realized something was wrong! Suddenly two green glories of light appeared in the darkness in front of us. It's like two ghost fires! Everyone was instantly attracted by those two lights! Then, as if we were asleep, we didn't know anything! ”
Hearing their words, I don't need the second uncle to say it, I also know that they have been tricked. However, whose trick is this? Why did Fat Joe disappear?
Just when I was puzzled, suddenly, there was a "bang" sound in a bush next to us, as if someone was walking inside.
Hearing this voice, everyone was alert!
Deng Hu picked up a big stone directly from the side of the road and was about to smash it.
The second uncle stopped him in time. Then, without saying a word, he stared in that direction.
We all watched with bated breath! The mood is getting more and more nervous!
Just when we were so nervous that we couldn't catch our breath, a man walked out of there.
After a closer look, I found that it was none other than Qiao Fat!
At this time, Qiao's fat man's face was covered with blood, and he looked extremely terrifying!
And in the arms of the fat man, Qiao was still holding Tang Xiao, who was already unconscious!
Seeing this, I hurriedly ran over. Q: "What's wrong?" What's going on, please? ”
Fat Qiao handed Tang Xiao into my arms and said, "What's wrong?" Do you remember the last time we saw that python when we came! ”
I nodded subconsciously.
Fat Joe continued: "Last time it didn't do anything to us. This time, however, it did it! First, he used an unknown trick to control everyone's minds. Then, he suddenly attacked Tang Xiao and grabbed her to the mountain. I followed all the way, originally wanting to bring Tang Xiao back. However, I didn't expect that python to be quite fierce. If it weren't for Master Qiao, what flowed in my body was the blood of the Yin, I'm afraid that Master Qiao and I would have become someone's appetizer by now! ”
Hearing this, the second uncle hesitated for a moment and said, "If something goes wrong, there must be a demon!" If it was going to do something to us, it wouldn't have let us go so easily last time. I think it did it because it sensed a threat. As for where the threat came from, I think it should be the corpse of the old patriarch! ”
After saying this, everyone turned their heads to look at the coffin again.
After being quiet for a long time, the second uncle informed us again to continue on our way.
I gently called Tang Xiao a few times, and after waking her up, I said a few words. He began to follow everyone on.
After so much had happened in that night, the villagers had already had a desire to leave. It's just that I'm worried that if I leave like this, I will be hated by the ghost of the old patriarch. And I didn't say anything.
Now it's almost over. So, one by one, they could only grit their teeth and start on the road again.
It's just that this time we're going to take the mountain road. Compared to the flat land, this mountain road still makes us suffer a lot! Especially those four coffin bearers! Walking on this road with a bulky coffin, there is a danger of falling from time to time. So, Qiao, Fatzi and I, and my second uncle stood around the coffin, and once a coffin bearer fell, we would hurriedly hold on to the coffin. Don't let the coffin fall to the ground!
In this way, we came to the grave that had been chosen for the old patriarch. The second uncle asked someone to put the two benches he brought on the ground. Then, four more coffin bearers were asked to place the coffin on it. Only then did he take out three sticks of incense and light them. Then, I walked around the location of the graveyard in seven circles and seven times in reverse. Then he put the unburned incense on the ground.
It wasn't until all the three incense sticks were burned out that Deng Hu was called to come over and dig the first shovel of soil.
This first spade soil is also exquisite! Generally speaking, it is the relatives of the deceased who do this kind of thing. However, because of the old patriarch, all their families died. Therefore, I can only ask the people of my own family to do this kind of thing!
And Deng Hu came either to hold photos or to call the chicken. So, he's the perfect fit! In addition, there is a saying that the person who digs this first shovel of soil will definitely be blessed by the dead in the future! In the future, children and grandchildren will be rich and rich!
With our relationship with the village chief, whether it is public or private, this kind of thing will have to be done by Deng Hu!
The people in the village are also aware of our relationship, plus Deng Hu is the son of the village chief. So, nothing was said!
So, after Deng Hu dug up the first spade of soil, everyone began to dig it up.
Watch as shovel after shovel of soil is dug out. Seriously, I'm so nervous! I'm afraid they'll dig something out of the dirt. It's like being in Temple Village!
Thankfully, though, I was overthinking! Until they finished digging the pit, nothing happened. So, the second uncle began to ask people to sprinkle paper money in the pit.
This is a custom in the village. Putting paper money under the back of the dead means that the children and grandchildren will have money to spend!
However, this is actually useless for the old patriarch's family! After all, their family is already the last one!
After scattering the paper money, we are ready to start falling into the coffin.
No matter what happened before, as long as the coffin fell into the pit, it was equivalent to leaving the country. The rest is in the hands of the messengers!
However, just as we were about to lift the coffin, suddenly, things changed again!
I only heard a muffled "bang" coming from inside the coffin. At the same time, the whole coffin also trembled violently! Everyone was immediately frightened and froze in place!
