Chapter 029: The Legend of the Scarlet Mandarin Duck

I was completely amazed and said: how is this possible?

Mr. Huang asked me rhetorically, how could it not be? Since the Ox team can calculate that I will let me uncover the seal of Yin Xiujuan's head, why can't they arrange a ghost marriage for me to be used as a cushion for me to 'fight the evil spirit', so that everything can be reasonable?

Mr. Huang saw that I didn't speak, and then said: It was he who found your uncle and said that he wanted to match your cousin with a secret marriage, and then he paid all the expenses and warned your uncle to forget who he was, in fact, when your uncle and your father came out of the police station that day, your uncle had already recognized it, but there was no way, how did an authentic farmer play a hundred or ten years of human spirit?

I hurriedly took out a lighter and lit it for him, and waited for him to do the following.

Mr. Huang took two sharp breaths, and then said: In fact, since that time, you have fallen into the trap they set for you, including you going to Xiao Li's house, but the accident is indeed the kid named Shu Jin, although that kid is not a human being, but he has no bad intentions for you for the time being.

When he said this, I interrupted him and said, "Mr. Huang, he once told me that he saved me to save himself, what does this mean?" And when I was in the primeval forest, you said that he also had a plan for me, what did he want from me? ”

Mr. Huang laughed and said that he couldn't say this, otherwise that kid Shu Jin would have to play with him, I said why can't you say it, are you afraid of him?

Mr. Huang's eyes glared: Little rabbit, are you still using the agitation method with me? If you want to hear the story, I'll keep telling you, and if you don't want to hear it, you'll get out of here.

I smiled and said I wanted to hear it.

Then he continued: Later, I heard Xiao Li say, you still know the one named Zhou Yongquan in the village, and he also made a big fuss with Shu Jin Xiao Li's home, at that time Xiao Li didn't know the specific situation and thought that you were with the Niu team, just like to kill you completely, Shu Jin was injured because of carelessness, and the fear surnamed Zhou Xiao Li hid in the Niu team's residence, and you escaped a catastrophe because of Shu Jin's early return and manipulation with me behind the back, and the Niu team is smart, but the wise man must make a mistake, if he doesn't bring you to me, I really didn't know you were the young man named Qiu Yan.

I said, "What is the explanation for this?"

"This involves the legend of the lotus ditch and the blood-colored mandarin duck box." Mr. Huang took another sharp breath and laughed and said: "I don't know about things that are too long ago, but Xiao Li told me that at that time, there was a master who threatened Master Xiao Li's life and asked the two of them to come here to find a person named Qiu Yan, the characteristic is that this person named Qiu Yan has a scar on his left shoulder, as long as Qiu Yan's left eye is taken away, their master will be released, but when they arrived here in Wutong County, they found out that this was a conspiracy at all, a conspiracy to kill the two of them; In the end, Yin Xiujuan covered Xiao Li's escape at the cost of her life, Xiao Li has had several opportunities for revenge in the past seventy years, but don't see through the other party, the strange thing is that the other party doesn't bother to kill Xiao Li at all, at first she didn't understand, until she saw you, she didn't understand why. ”

When I heard this, my brain was a little unable to turn around, so I asked Mr. Huang what did he mean until he saw me?

Mr. Huang said that in the past 70 years, more than a dozen people named Qiu Yan have been played to death by the Niu team, because they are not the Qiu Yan he is looking for, because they did not have a scar on their left shoulder before they died, and you, yes, so Xiao Li is still useful to him.

I felt my head thump.

It turns out that all of this is being pushed forward by the Bull team with a pair of black hands behind the back, if this is really the case, then wouldn't my left eye be gouged out by him? If he really wanted to, he should have poached it before I could get rid of it.

But if you think about it carefully, there must be some other reason for him to have scruples, and the person who asked me to come to Granny Li's house and was slashed was Mr. Huang.

I turned my head and said sharply, "Mr. Huang, it seems that I was cut this because you asked me to come to Lotus Valley, right?" ”

"But did I let you into her house? Or did I let you mention her sister's name in front of her, after all these years, her sister has long become a scar in her heart, at that time, don't say that you will be given a scab, it will kill you with a knife, and you can't complain about me. "Mr. Huang looks like an old god.

I choked, in fact, it was really like this, I can only blame that I happened to be at home when I came, and she pulled me in, and after thinking about it, she asked me who asked me to come, and asked me why the person who came with me for the first time didn't come, that is, the person who mistook me for the bull team.

I sorted out my emotions and said, "Then I, will I be gouged out and killed by the bulls?" ”

Mr. Huang said: "Of course not, he waited for more than a hundred years to wait for you, how could he let you die so easily, he wanted to eat your eyes, and then make you into a grave for you to continue to live." ”

"Me? Tomb? I asked.

He said: "Yes, I made you a living mound, but I don't know what the purpose is, maybe it's because of your cousin, anyway, this matter is very complicated, I didn't call you to play reasoning with you, but to tell you about the blood-colored mandarin duck." ”

As we spoke, we had walked outside the village, and there was a sweet potato cellar just outside the village.

The sweet potato cellar is a similar thing to a cellar, which used to be a place to store sweet potatoes in the countryside, so that it can be stored for a long time and will not be eaten by some wild animals.

After he removed the stone lid of the sweet potato cellar, he asked me to slide down with a rope from the well.

After I looked at it a few times, I said you go down first, Mr. Huang smiled, and said I have accompanied you to the ghost place of the primeval forest, and you are still afraid that I will harm you?

In fact, many years later, after I came, the danger in the primeval forest was not only the little bit I encountered, Mr. Huang was able to accompany me, or it can be said that he risked his life to go.

After getting out of the sweet potato cellar, I found that the space in it is really big enough, and there is a small wooden door with a copper lock hanging on it, I reached out and pulled it, and it didn't feel very tight, so I said: "What's behind this door, I feel like I can pull it open." ”

"If you're not afraid of death, you'll pull it." With that, he walked to the other end of the sweet potato cellar.

I hurried along, but the more I went, the more frightened I became, it was like an underground corridor, not a sweet potato cellar at all.

I asked him what this place was, and he said that this was the place where the Scarlet Mandarin Duck first appeared, and it was a sad story......

I know he's going to tell me a story.

A hundred years ago, this lotus ditch was just a landlord's home, the landlord's surname was Bai, at that time, the Bai family could be said to be full of talents, and the men were in important positions in the court, which can be described as very prosperous, but in the end it was ruined by a show, which is also ridiculous.

At that time, it was raining heavily, and a Xiucai passed by here and wanted to spend a night at the Bai family, and the old man Bai was also a kind and charitable person, so he was allowed to stay.

As a result, the rainstorm fell for seven days in a row, and Xiucai couldn't leave, and by chance, Xiucai got acquainted with Bai Yixue, the daughter of Old Man Bai.

Bai Yixue is eighteen years old, handsome and handsome, likes to find Xiucai to study calligraphy and painting, and over time the two secretly fell in love, and finally lived together secretly, Xiucai also wrote a marriage letter for Bai Yixue, Bai Yixue also believed the words of this scholar, and prepared the dowry box early.

But Xiucai was bent on gaining fame, so he told Bai Yixue to let her wait for him for some time, and then come back to marry her after he won the top prize in high school.

She believed it, but Xiucai never returned, because of her handsomeness, there were also many squires in the village who came to propose, but Bai Yixue didn't marry, but after a long time, even though Bai Yixue had the intention to hide it, her belly that grew bigger day by day couldn't be hidden, and she was finally known.

For a while, the Bai family's reputation was discredited, and the old man Bai locked Bai Yixue in a fit of anger, and after a few months, news came from the capital, saying that Xiucai High School, who had stayed in the Bai family, had become the champion.

Old man Bai said in his heart that although this talent is a little pedantic, as long as he is good to Bai Yixue, Bai Fu will recognize this son-in-law.

Who knew that a few days later, news came from the capital that Xiucai had married the daughter of a minister.

Bai Yixue, who heard the news, couldn't accept it at all, and finally committed suicide by hanging herself in the boudoir.

It's just that in the boudoir of the youngest daughter, her body is resentful, and the blood and tears of resentment fall on the pair of mandarin ducks that Xiucai once gave her, and the legend of the blood-colored mandarin ducks spread.

Xiucai returned here many years later, and swore because he felt guilty that he would not take a concubine for Bai Yixue in this life and give Bai Yixue a name, but the person is dead, what is the use of asking for a name?

But since Xiucai said that he would give Bai Yixue a name, Xiucai seems to have an ability that ordinary people don't have, that is, he can see the souls of those deceased.

Xiucai spent every day in fear, and after a long time, Xiucai also got a serious illness, but before he died, Xiucai told his son that after he died, he could dig out his left eye to live a safe life, because this eye has the ability to reach the sky.

So as long as the blood-colored mandarin duck appears, there will be many people to grab it, just thinking that the left eye left by the rumored Xiucai can know the past and the future.

While listening, I followed Mr. Huang and looked at the murals on the wall, which were all poems or pictures expressing love, and the story that Mr. Huang told was the mural on the wall, and the last mural was a child holding a human eyeball into a dowry box containing mandarin ducks.

Mr. Huang stood in front of me at this time and looked at me and said, "This is the legend of the blood-colored mandarin duck, what do you think?" ”

I said: "This Xiucai is a scumbag at all, he said that he wanted to marry Bai Yixue, but he married the daughter of the minister of the DPRK and the Central Committee for fame and fortune, which is not as good as a pig and a dog." ”

Speaking of which, I changed my tone and asked, "In this case, the appearance of the blood-colored mandarin duck means that the left eye will also appear?" ”

Mr. Huang said: "Of course, otherwise why would the Bulls go so hard? Also, do you know what the name of this show is? ”

I shook my head and said I didn't know.

Mr. Huang said: This Xiucai is named Qiu Yan.
