Chapter Twenty-Six: What Happened to Wang Tao [5]
Old Uncle Zhang patted him on the shoulder, and his tone softened: "You kid has a good heart, except for his brain turning slowly." ”
After sighing softly, the conversation suddenly changed: "I used to learn a little bit of the method of warding off evil spirits from the masters, so I may still have a chance to stay here, but if I let you stay, it will definitely be death." You have to listen to me this time, and it is the best choice to go down the mountain and move the rescue soldiers as soon as possible. ”
Wang Tao wiped a handful of tears and said hesitantly: "But... But I can't rest assured that you're here alone! ”
"Hey!"
Old Uncle Zhang smiled bitterly, "I'm really afraid of something, you see, you have committed this hesitant ** disease again." If you don't want me to die, then don't bother and go down the mountain! ”
Although he couldn't bear it, Wang Tao also knew that he couldn't hesitate anymore this time, so he said goodbye to Uncle Zhang, and ran straight to the bottom of the mountain without stopping.
Shuttling through the gloomy jungle along the way, Wang Tao still seemed a little nervous and frightened, and even felt a little hairy in his heart.
After all, he had just experienced a life and death, and encountered some strange events that were difficult to explain, so it was normal for his heart to be empty, but in order to buy more time to save Uncle Zhang's life, he couldn't care about these anymore, so he could only grit his teeth and keep running forward.
During this time, branches and sharp blades of grass continued to cut through the skin on his body, and blood flowed out instantly.
But even so, he never slowed down, as if he didn't know the pain at all, and tried desperately to move forward, forward, and forward.
Maybe it was his sincerity that moved the sky, or maybe as Uncle Zhang said, it was the result of that evil carelessness, in short, no matter what, he still broke out of this maze that was indistinct to the naked eye.
When he came to the gate of Grandma Sun's house out of breath and covered with scars, he finally secretly breathed a sigh of relief: Old Uncle Zhang, I have finally completed the task you assigned to me, and I hope that the Bodhisattva can bless you from escaping this catastrophe!
The tight string in his heart suddenly relaxed, and Wang Tao realized that his legs no longer had much strength, so he moved his trembling legs and stumbled into Grandma Sun's house.
When Wang Tao finished narrating the whole thing in one breath, Xiaobao and Xiaomei suddenly felt very heavy, and stood aside silently, not knowing what the two were thinking.
Since inquiring about this matter, Granny Sun has always frowned, and it is estimated that her mood is not much better than Xiaobao's.
After half a ring, when Granny Sun was about to speak, Wang Tao actually twitched without warning, his face suddenly became even paler, and finally fell to the ground and passed out.
Seeing this, Grandma Sun went over to check on his condition, saying that he was caused by the wind and cold, and the body was weak due to excessive physical exertion, as long as he recuperated quietly for a few days, it would be fine.
The three of them worked together to help Wang Tao to settle down on the earthen kang, and Grandma Sun personally boiled ginger soup for him and drank it, before going back to the house to get some needed things and preparing to go up the mountain to rescue Uncle Zhang.
Xiaobao shouted that he would also go together, but Granny Sun disagreed, "This is extremely risky, your ability is not enough to deal with those dangers, it is better to stay and take care of Wang Tao with Xiaomei." ”
took out six runes from his arms and handed them to Xiaobao, and the words changed: "The bodies of Xiaomei's parents will be buried in a few days, and I can't personally preside over the overall situation here, in order to prevent this matter from getting complicated, you must put away these spirit runes." In the meantime, it is okay to have nothing to do, if you encounter something difficult to solve, you can sacrifice this talisman. ”
Seeing what she said solemnly, Xiaobao could only put away the spirit talisman obediently.
Granny Sun nodded with satisfaction, explained the use of rune paper, and said some taboos that should be avoided during the vigilance, and then hurriedly went out and went straight to Nanshan......
Since Grandma Sun left that day, Xiaobao and Xiaomei have taken on the responsibility of taking care of Wang Tao, and at night, the two of them went to the mourning hall to keep vigil together.
Xiaomei saw that Xiaobao frowned and didn't speak, and she was a little nervous for no reason, so she touched him with her elbow, "Brother Xiaobao, what are you thinking?" Why don't you talk to me? ”
"Oh, nothing."
As if he had just come to his senses, Xiaobao shook his head, "Actually, I was just thinking about what Wang Tao said during the day, why do you say that so many of them can't find the way down the mountain?" ”
After speaking, he turned his head to look at Xiaomei, looking like he wanted to hear how she would answer.
"I ..... I do not know. ”
Xiaomei said with a bitter face and a little uncomfortably.
Seeing Xiaomei's scared look, Xiaobao remembered that this was the mourning hall, and it was not good to say something bad in the mourning hall at night, but to talk about such unbelievable things, it would be strange not to scare her.
After all, she is a girl, how can she take care of her emotions, she is really careless enough, and she has forgotten such a simple truth.
Out of guilt for Xiaomei, Xiaobao hurriedly changed the topic and said: "That Wang Tao has slept for a day, and I don't know if he is awake now, why don't we go and see that stupid big man?" ”
"Hmm."
Xiaomei nodded weakly and returned to the bedroom at the front of the house with Xiaobao.
The two of them came to the clay kang where Wang Tao was lying and found that he was talking nonsense with cold all over his body.
"Don't ask me to be a stand-in! I don't want to die, please...... Please, Ma San'er, please don't kill me......"
"Old Uncle Zhang! Let's walk together, let's walk together...... I can't leave you here alone......"
"Nope! No! Don't kill him!! ”
With a loud drink, Wang Tao actually woke up from his sleep all of a sudden, he sat on the clay kang and gasped for breath, obviously frightened by the nightmare just now.
After slowing down for a while, Wang Tao suddenly got off the ground in a panic, he put on his shoes and yelled nervously, "I can't leave Old Uncle Zhang alone on the barren mountain, I want to save him!" He must need me a lot right now, yes! I'm going to save him back! ”
Xiaobao was startled when he saw his deranged appearance, and was stunned for a few seconds before rushing forward and grabbing his arm, and hurriedly dissuaded: "Brother Wang Tao! My master has already gone to save Uncle Zhang! You don't have to go up the mountain anymore, it's dangerous there! ”
"Don't you need me to go up the mountain? Don't need me to go up the mountain? ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Wang Tao's eyes, and he suddenly knelt on the ground and laughed loudly at the air in front of him: "Haha! Old Uncle Zhang! When did you get back? Why don't you tell me? I'm scared for you in vain! ”
Wang Tao's crazy appearance in front of her frightened Xiaomei, she grabbed the corners of Xiaobao's clothes with trembling hands, and asked in a trembling voice: "Brother Xiaobao, do you say that Brother Wang Tao is he a demon?" ”
encountered such a strange thing, Xiaobao only felt that his scalp was numb, and his back had a cold and swishing feeling, but because of Xiaomei's presence, he had to pretend to be calm and said, "It's okay, you don't have to be afraid!" Even if he is stunned, there are still six talismans left by Grandma Sun! Take out any of them, and you'll be sure to get it done. ”
To be honest, Xiaobao didn't know what the situation of Wang Tao in front of him was, and he didn't know much about the few talismans left by Grandma Sun before leaving.
But in order to appease Xiaomei's fear, and to cheer for herself, Xiaobao could only say this.
