Chapter 12: The Nest
It is said that Gundam and Wang Jiaqi roared at Gao Bao together, but Gao Bao walked up, put his arm around Gao Bao's shoulder, and laughed.
"Family, scared you, didn't you? Don't mind, don't mind, please have a drink tonight! ”
We people here call people with the same surname "Jiamen", which means that 500 years ago it was the same family.
Gao Bao can only be embarrassed by a small one.
Wang Jiaqi glared at Gundam and said, "Did you make a mistake just now?" ”
Gundam said strangely, "What mistake? ”
Wang Jiaqi pointed to the hand that was still held high on the other side of the well, and said, "Oh, there is still a person buried underneath, and I didn't get it out with the knife all night, why don't you leave a few people to help dig it out?" ”
Gundam was stunned for a moment and said, "This ...... I really didn't think about it, I just thought about driving them away. Now what? ”
I took the opportunity to say, "Of course, I can only make one trip and then find someone to help." ”
Gundam said, "Then you can run." ”
Wang Jiaqi suddenly jumped up: "You won't, right?" Are you embarrassed to let a girl run so far over the mountains? ”
Gundam said helplessly: "Then I'll go." ”
Wang Jiaqi pouted: "You? You don't know which direction the village is, so don't get lost. ”
At this point, the meaning is already very clear.
Na Gao Bao also said with interest: "I'll go." I've been here several times, and I'm familiar with the road and the people. ”
No one objected, Wang Jiaqi said it for a long time, and he originally wanted Gao Bao to say this sentence himself.
Seeing that Gao Bao walked away, I looked at Wang Jiaqi and said with a smile: "You are quite smart, you can know what I mean with a look." ”
"Of course, we're the best match." Wang Jiaqi said proudly.
Gundam was naturally not stupid, and asked with a frown, "What is the purpose of your kid to transfer him away?" ”
I didn't answer Gundam, looked at Wang Jiaqi and said, "Can you find fecal water around here?" ”
Wang Jiaqi looked around, pointed to the west and said, "There is a dung pit over there, and some are stored in it, so I'll go get some." ”
With that, Wang Jiaqi ran over there.
Gouda was confused and couldn't figure out what we were doing.
"I'll explain to you later, come with me first." As I spoke, I went to the bottom of the stone ridge in front of the well again, and stood next to the hand that was raised, and pointed to Gundam to find the other three places where the Five Elements Seal was attached.
"This is called the Five Elements Seal Talisman, which is specially used to seal the soul." When Gundam finally returned to me, I explained to him, "I suspect that the souls of all the people in Shangtang Village have been sealed here. ”
Gundam was startled and said in astonishment, "All of them? ”
"Pretty much." I said, "It's just a guess, so I'm going to confirm it." ”
"No," Gundam said, "if their souls were sealed here, then those villagers ...... just now."
"Yes, most of them are possessed by Ben." I say.
"Mostly?" Gouda was angry and annoyed, and said, "Aren't you a fucking judge in the world?" Can't you see if those people are possessed? ”
I smiled bitterly and said, "Originally, I could see it, but since Qin Xuantian could only do it, I regarded that ability as if it didn't exist." The technology of the underworld is too backward, and it doesn't work a lot of the time. ”
"My day!" Gouda said indignantly, "Then you have to guess?" ”
I admit with a wry smile.
At this time, Wang Jiaqi came over with one hand covering his nose and a wooden barrel in the other.
The barrel was filled with a small half bucket of dung water, and it smelled ...... That's it.
However, the more filthy it is, the better it works.
Wang Jiaqi was also careful, and brought a water scoop by the way.
"I've got the dung water, and it's your turn next." Wang Jiaqi said, put the dung bucket on the ground, and gestured to Gundam.
Gundam seemed to want to say something, but after being glared at by Wang Jiaqi, he stopped talking, picked up the dung bucket and went to work.
"Just drizzle a little in one place, not too much." Wang Jiaqi said proudly and loudly.
"Got it!" Gouda said angrily, "Since that's the case, isn't it okay for Lao Tzu to pee a little in one place?" ”
"I'm afraid you don't have that much pee." Wang Jiaqi pouted and said.
At last. Gundam poured all the rest of the feng shui on the talisman on the stone ridge next to the well.
Then, the three of us immediately retreated far away.
My feet were hit hard by the old four, and I walked with a limp, and Gao Gao and Wang Jiaqi supported me left and right.
Wang Jiaqi suddenly smiled and said: "I thought that the Three Heroes of Wind and Dust were the Red Whisker Girl, the Bearded Guest and Li Jing, who knew that it turned out to be He Xiangu, Uncle Cao Guo and Tie Guan Li." ”
Gundam glanced at my feet and laughed.
Wang Jiaqi, this guy, his head is turning quite fast.
We stood on a ridge and watched the reaction of the Five Elements Seal.
Doesn't seem to be responding?
After a few more minutes, wisps of black smoke began to rise from the center of the Five Elements Seal, that is, on the stone ridge.
The black smoke grew thicker and thicker, accumulating more and more.
After a few more minutes, the black smoke gradually cleared, and on the stone ridge, more than a hundred souls gathered.
The souls looked around one by one, their eyes full of confusion, not knowing what was happening.
In those souls, I saw the third uncle, I saw the fourth, and the people I met at the entrance of the village last night were all among them.
I really didn't guess wrong, those "people" in the morning, the souls of the entire Shangtang Village people, are all here, and there is no one missing!
Wang Jiaqi's little ghost stood on her shoulder, clapping his hands happily and smiling happily.
Wang Jiaqi and Gao Da were at a loss.
"What's wrong? All I saw was a cloud of black smoke, and then there was nothing. What about the souls you're talking about? Did you guess wrong? Wang Jiaqi looked at me and said.
By the way, I forgot, Wang Jiaqi and Gundam can't see anything.
But I can't think about it now.
Gundam laughed or something, "I have a way." ”
As he spoke, Gundam pulled out a small glass bottle, about the size of a typical kitchen bottle of pepper, and poured out dark brown dirt from it that dried like powder.
By the way, all the dirt from my old grave has been handed over to him for safekeeping.
"You guy, you always take this with you when you travel." I say.
Gundam smiled and said, "That's why I'm away from home, so I brought this." ”
As he spoke, Gundam spat some spit in the palm of his hand, wetting the old grave soil in his hand, slowly stirring his fingers evenly, and then applying it to his eyelids.
Then, he stretched out his outstretched hand in front of Wang Jiaqi.
"What? So disgusting. Wang Jiaqi frowned and said, but without waiting for Gundam to answer, he followed Gundam's appearance, smeared some old grave soil, and carefully smeared it on his eyelids.
Then, she opened her eyes.
Then, her mouth slowly opened to the fullest extent.
She pointed to the "people" in front of the well and looked at me in shock, but she couldn't say a word.
Seeing her expression, I didn't need to ask anything more to know that my conjecture had been positively confirmed.
The uncles, aunts, aunts, and cousins she was usually familiar with were all there, and none of them looked like people, and her expression was simply normal.
Gundam's expression was not so shocked, much calmer than Wang Jiaqi, but he also recognized that these "people" were the ones he had seen not long ago, that is, the people he had driven away just now.
"Let's go down and have a look." I say.
Gundam hurriedly helped me, but Wang Jiaqi was still immersed in shock.
Gundam got impatient and kicked Wang Jiaqi in the ass through me.
"Ahh Wang Jiaqi screamed, finally came to his senses, and hurriedly held my other hand.
"Hey, Xiaoqi, why are you here?" The third uncle asked strangely.
Wang Jiaqi is not an ordinary person after all, so he calmed down at this time and said, "Third uncle, this question should be asked by me, why are you here?" ”
The third uncle said blankly: "I don't know either." Aren't we keeping a vigil around the coffin of our grandfather? Why did you get here? ”
"yes, aren't we supposed to be in the mourning hall? How did you get here? ”
"I seem to have fallen asleep, have I slept for so long? At least a couple of hours of sleep. ”
"No, it doesn't seem that the cemetery that Mr. chose for the ancestor is not here."
“……”
Wang Jiaqi's question was like a drop of cold water falling into hot oil, and these "people" suddenly chattered and quarreled.
