CHAPTER XVII
In the past few days, walking around every day, the young man has played all over Zhengzhou Mansion, and when he comes back, he feels tired, Zhang San'er and his clothes lie down and fall asleep. At this time, Shen Xiaohua took the oil lamp, walked to the mirror and sat down ghostly, carefully placed the oil lamp on the table, opened her mouth and spit out a green light into the oil lamp, and the room instantly became miserable green, Zhang San'er was still snoring, but there was no sound at the moment.
Shen Xiaohua glanced back at the sleeping Zhang San'er, picked up the comb by herself, and combed her long hair seriously, knowing that Suosuo's voice came out of Shen Xiaohua's body, her strange eyes glowed with a strange green light, and her face was also reflected in the mirror into a strange color. The facial features seemed to be constantly running, and the whole face seemed to be alive, always wanting to leave Shen Xiaohua's head.
Shen Xiaohua's five fingers were pointed, firmly holding her cheeks, as if she was afraid that her face would fall, she pressed it hard, her face finally stopped moving, tilted her head and looked at herself carefully in the mirror, she seemed to be very satisfied with her face, oh oh screamed strangely, suddenly turned her head, her left hand stretched out straight, and it was more than two feet long, she easily took the clothes that were placed behind the bed, and wore them clumsily, stood up and looked herself up and down in the mirror, and carefully stroked the dust on the embroidered shoes.
Then he opened the drawer and took out a small wooden box from it, on which the dragon and phoenix were depicted, which was very exquisite, and I don't know where this thing came from. I saw that she opened it and took out a black eyebrow pencil, put her face in front of the mirror, touched her eyebrows, and patiently drew herself, she didn't seem to have painted, her hands were uncontrollable, and she always drew it to the door of her head and cheeks, and she broke the eyebrow pencil angrily, threw it away, palms up, condensed a handful of water, dipped in water and wiped Liu Dai carefully, and the eyebrow pencil on the ground flew to her hand again and drew it again. This time it's better, and the willow eyebrows are pointed.
It seems to be very satisfied, and I took two things from the wooden box, opened it and turned out to be Fu powder and rouge, and the two cheeks were smeared with Fu powder and coated with rouge, and the eyebrows were trimmed and decorated with Dai, and the red lips were dyed. When he was finished, he sprinkled his body with rose dew, put on a red robe, took off his embroidered shoes and stood barefoot on the ground, with green eyes and a red robe, although his face was exquisitely painted, he was not a living person no matter how he looked at it.
It seemed that she couldn't find anything imperfect about herself, Shen Xiaohua stamped up in the room, her body seemed to have no weight, and she floated into the air as she walked.
The feet as white as jade are dotted in the air, and it looks like a person here. Suddenly, she floated to the side of the bed, and Zhang San'er was sleeping soundly.
After pondering for a while, Shen Xiaohua sat down, her eyes were like substance, and she shot on Zhang San'er's head, Zhang San'er, who was sleeping soundly, seemed to have a nightmare, and the emotional changes on her face seemed to be very terrifying.
Shen Xiaohua felt tired, and the clothes lay beside Zhang San'er, and accidentally touched Zhang San'er's back, Zhang San'er's body shook violently and moved away a little. There were beads of sweat on his head.
It was still very early, Zhang San'er was awakened by a nightmare, in which he saw a monster with a squirrel's tail all the time, and chased him to the end of the world with his teeth and claws. wiped the beads of sweat on his head, and still had palpitations in his heart.
Shen Xiaohua beside him slept very sweetly with her back to him, and the quilt was not covered, Zhang San'er lifted the quilt to cover her, but was startled when she saw her face, this person is not Xiaohua?
But if it weren't for Xiaohua, how could he sleep next to him, he hurriedly got out of bed, stood at the head of the bed and looked carefully, only to know that it was still Shen Xiaohua, but it was just coated with a thick layer of powder, and he didn't recognize it for a while. Since getting married, Shen Xiaohua has never dressed up like this, when has she ever been in today's situation, she doesn't sleep at night, she paints her face like a goblin, and dresses like a ghost. pushed and pushed to wake her up and ask for an understanding, the sleeping Shen Xiaohua's body was cold, without a trace of body temperature, and then pushed hard, as if she was no longer breathing.
Zhang San'er is creepy, what's wrong with Xiaohua? Without breathing, without body temperature, the body is as cold as a dead man. "Xiaohua, Xiaohua, what's wrong with you, hurry up." After calling for a long time, he still looked lifeless, and there was no response.
Could it be that the little flower is...... Zhang San'er didn't dare to think about it, opened the door and called Brother Xiao Ma loudly.
Brother Pony came out in his cloak and asked, "Brother, what's wrong?" Hearing the familiar voice, Zhang San'er's heart settled down slightly, and said, "Brother, come and see, what's wrong with Xiaohua." ”
Shen Xiaohua on the bed was still not breathing, and when Brother Xiao Ma entered the door and saw this strange situation, he shivered smartly, and hurriedly said loudly to Zhang San'er: "Brother, you immediately help your younger brother and sister to lie down, and then pinch her and keep calling her name in her ear." ”
Zhang San'er cried: "Brother, what's wrong with Xiaohua? ”
"She has fallen into evil, her body is occupied by dirty, and if it takes a long time, it will cause the greatest harm to people. Don't talk about it yet, you move quickly. Otherwise, Xiaohua must be seriously ill. After that, the shopkeeper brought more than a dozen candles, all of them were lit, the cold in the room was dispelled, and it was much brighter, Zhang San'er followed Brother Xiaoma's instructions, stroked Shen Xiaohua's face with his hand, and kept calling her name.
Shen Xiaohua's body was cold, but fortunately, there was always a breath hanging in her heart, and her heart only beat for a long time.
The rooster crowed for the fifth watch, and the rooster in the distance made the first crow, Shen Xiaohua finally had a breath, opened her eyes faintly, saw Zhang San'er's eyes red, looked at herself with concern, and asked in surprise: "Third brother, you are not in good spirits, you didn't sleep well last night?" Zhang San'er didn't dare to tell the truth, and comforted: "It's nothing, I had a nightmare at night." ”
It was almost dawn, and Shen Xiaohua got up to wash. Zhang San'er's heart relaxed, which had been tense all night, and she wanted to go to bed to make up for sleep. Suddenly, I heard a scream from behind: "Third brother, why am I like this?" ”
"Brother, it seems that the rumors outside are true." Brother Pony took a sharp puff on his cigarette and said
"What is the rumor, I don't know," Zhang San'er was pretending to be confused, in fact, how could he not hear the rumors in the village.
"The village says that you have a monster in your house, and you have made a fortune. I see that you are confused, how can the gods and ghosts have a reason to help people for no reason, he doesn't know what he wants from you in exchange. ”
Brother Xiao Ma said to himself: "Just like last night, the younger brother and sister are clearly covered by the ghost, and the monster borrowed her soul to go out at night, if there is no danger, it is fine, if there is danger, then the younger brother and sister will never wake up again." You have to think about it sooner rather than later, and don't let it harm your brother and sister again. ”
"Brother, it is also because of this that we avoided Zhengzhou Mansion, the goddess is said to be the most capable person in Qingzhou Mansion, she can't drive out this monster, how can there be a person who is the opponent of the goblin, it used to be not a scourge to us, somehow, from the day I got married, it has been haunted by Xiaohua, we came to Zhengzhou Mansion, want to avoid it, but unexpectedly, it also followed, how can this be?"
"The elders said that if you are entangled in this thing, you won't end up well, so I think it's right to find someone to drive it away.
Zhang San'er smiled bitterly: "Brother, you don't think like this, but who can we find to get rid of it?" ”
"Then I'll ask the shopkeeper to see if there are any masters in Zhengzhou Mansion who can have this power."
The shopkeeper lived in the backyard, and when he heard the movement, he had already come over, and when he heard about him, he walked in and said: "Miss, uncle, there is a small flower temple on the Purple Mountain, and there are Taoist priests in it, otherwise please come and take a look." ”
Zhang San'er asked: "Does the Taoist priest of Xiaohuaguan have real skills?" ”
The cattle shopkeeper said: "This is not very clear. ”
Zhang San'er heard this and said angrily: "I don't know, you also introduce it to me." ”
The shopkeeper said: "There were many temples in Zhengzhou Mansion, but they were all driven away by the garrison and had no place to live, and the monks and Taoists ran away early. How can I find anyone, only this Taoist priest of Xiaohuaguan, because it is a small temple, it is inconspicuous and survived. Would you like to ask him for a look? It's better than nothing. ”
"It seems that I have to go to him", Zhang San'er was a little helpless.
