Chapter 20 The old cow dies in lieu of death

For I saw red blood on the woman's cheeks, which ......

I was frightened and retreated, Qi Yao hugged me, and when the woman saw me like this, she asked me with concern, "What's wrong with you?" You okay? ”

I pointed to the woman's face and said, "Why are your tears red?" ”

The woman reached out and touched her tears, looked at them, was stunned for a few seconds, and then a strange smile appeared on her face, and then she didn't say anything, she got up and was about to walk out, Qi Yao saw this and quickly pulled me away.

We avoided the woman, and she went out with a chatter and disappeared into the night.

I was a little frightened, and when the woman was gone, I quickly closed the door.

What has happened in the past few days is inevitably too evil.

I took a deep breath, I glanced at Qi Yao, and Qi Yao said to me, "Qin Huai, remember to tell Master Zhang about this tomorrow." ”

I mumbled and said yes.

I'm still thinking about the couplet, the upper one is the mourning of the dead, and the lower one is the widow's mourning. Zhang Yiqing just said that it had happened, so what happened just now is not a widow's crying and mourning.

If both of these things happen, it's good luck.

If this couplet is really my godfather's post, then tomorrow will be a good day, just right for my godfather to be buried.

I thought about it like this, and my heart was still a little messy, just because this whole thing was very messy in itself.

I would look at the coffin where my godfather was lying, and I would murmur, "Godfather, what the hell are you doing?" ”

It's just that I can't get a turn back on this problem.

In the second half of the night, I was almost worried about it, and I watched it all night, and finally waited for a rooster to crow, and my hanging heart finally fell, and when it was dawn, even if there were any ghosts, I didn't dare to make trouble during the day.

Qi Yao and I didn't sleep all night, as soon as the morning dawned, I shouted Qi Yao to find the second uncle, the current situation I don't understand more and more, in order to avoid more disasters, I decided to bury my godfather as soon as possible, and Qi Yao and I went all the way to the second uncle's house.

When I passed by a house, I saw that the light was on, this is the butcher's house in the village, I arrived at the door, and subconsciously looked inside, they got up so early, usually to kill pigs, but when I looked inside, the butcher saw me bare-chested and said: "Qin Huai, do you want to buy some beef, the old cow I just killed, it is very replenished and fresh, do you want to buy it back and taste it." ”

As soon as I heard this, my complexion changed, and I subconsciously said, "Did you just say that it was the old cow that was slaughtered?" ”

"Yes, the old cow that has been raised for one or two decades, if you want it, I will give you a cheaper."

I quickly waved my hand and said no.

At this time, there were huge waves in my heart, is this the third thing Zhang Yiqing said? Now the old cows are dead.

I froze in place, suddenly Qi Yao called me, after I came back to my senses, I took Qi Yao's hand and walked to the second uncle's house, the second uncle also got up early and drank with others in the yard, there were almost twenty strong men, I came closer, and shouted the second uncle, and the second uncle answered.

I said to my second uncle, "Second uncle, it's time for my godfather to be buried." ”

The second uncle said okay, let's finish drinking this bowl of wine and go over.

They drank a bowl of wine, and soon took the matter and went to my godfather's house, and soon everyone carried my godfather's coffin, and went to the cemetery, and when we were busy, it was about half past six, and when the coffin was carried to the grave for burial, and finally after the burial, it took a total of four hours.

Today's weather doesn't look very good, it's gloomy, and after the burial, I expressed my gratitude to the second uncle.

I don't have enough power now, and I don't know how to thank him, thinking that if I have money and ability in the future, I will definitely repay them.

When they walked to the bottom of the cemetery, I said to the grave: "Godfather, you can go on the road with peace of mind, you can rest assured that I will come to see you and burn paper money for you during the Qingming Festival in the future." ”

I stood in front of my godfather's grave, and my heart became a little heavy, but in the end I still had to leave.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and I thought to myself, if I finally find out that my godfather was really killed by the enemy who wanted to kill me, then I will definitely avenge my godfather.

When I arrived at home, it was about twelve o'clock, and Qi Yao comforted me a few words.

I told Qi Yao that I was fine.

In the afternoon, there was a heavy rain in the sky, I went into the house and said something to my dad, but my dad is in this state, he can't hear what I say, I sighed, Qi Yao stood beside me, didn't say anything, just simply accompanied me.

It's just that I can't even imagine now that my dad actually formed a bond with the ghosts and gods of the underworld and Qinkou River at the same time.

When it was seven o'clock in the evening, Zhang Yiqing walked in from outside.

As soon as Zhang Yiqing came in, I couldn't wait to tell Zhang Yiqing what happened last night, especially the widow crying blood.

I asked Zhang Yiqing, "Master Zhang, what should I do now?" ”

Zhang Yiqing waved his hand and said, "Don't panic." ”

Of course, Zhang Yiqing can not panic, but I can't, I said to Zhang Yiqing: "Master Zhang, the three things you said may have already happened. Zhang Yiqing looked at me deeply, then sat down, and then said, "Girl, go and pour me a glass of boiling water." ”

After hearing this, Qi Yao did so, and went to pour hot water for Zhang Yiqing.

After Qi Yao left, there were only two people left in the house, Zhang Yiqing and me, Zhang Yiqing said to me: "The matter of Lao Niu dying for him has happened, then it only shows one possibility." ”

I asked, "What is possible?" ”

Zhang Yiqing smiled: "The secret of heaven must not be revealed, now is not the time to talk about this matter." ”

"When will you say that?"

I'm very anxious to know what happened now, otherwise I'm confused and don't know what's going on.

And since this series of strange events, uneasy feelings have continued to grow in my heart.

Zhang Yi cleared my eyes and said, "You are really an acute child." ”

I'm not in a hurry now, and if I don't, I don't know what's going to happen next.

Zhang Yiqing saw that my face was full of anxiety, so he said, "Okay, I'll take you to the river god now and ask some things clearly." ”

When I heard Zhang Yiqing say that he was going to take me to see the river god, I was stunned.

I said solemnly, "Master Zhang, do you mean to go to see the river god?" ”

Yang Duangong told me before that there are immortals living in this Qinkou River, and now that I think about it, the immortals Yang Duangong said should be the river gods.

Zhang Yiqing nodded, and said to me: "Then what are you still doing in a daze, if you don't want to go, just let me not say it." ”

How could I not want to go, my father's soul may be held in the hands of the river god.

"Before you go, you bring two catties of white rice, and the water ghosts in this river also like to eat white rice."

I hummed and said okay, and soon prepared the white rice, and when I returned to the house, Zhang Yiqing was already drinking boiled water, took a sip, and said, "By the way, I want to bring your daughter-in-law with me." ”

I looked confused when I heard this, daughter-in-law? Where did I come from?

Zhang Yiqing also quickly realized that he was wrong, patted his mouth, and said, "Look at my mouth, Qin Huai will take the girl with you." ”

When I heard Zhang Yiqing say that he wanted to take Qi Yao there, I felt that it would not work.

That night, the river god sent water ghosts to propose marriage, Zhang Yiqing saw that he was beating these water ghosts back, and the object of the water ghosts' proposal at that time was likely to be Qi Yao, so if this would bring Qi Yao over, those water ghosts would probably not stop at that time.

The river god will be angry too.

Zhang Yiqing didn't care so much, and opened his mouth and said, "Hurry up, otherwise it's not good to go late." ”

I hummed, and I didn't get entangled anymore, and followed Zhang Yiqing to the riverside of the Qinkou River, and the Qinkou River was also very calm tonight, and there were no fluctuations on the water.

When we arrived at the Qinkou River, we kept walking along the Qinkou River, there were not many villages on the Qinkou River, and we walked forward, basically there were no villages, and we came to the middle of the two peaks after walking for about an hour.

The two peaks are straight, with the Qinkou River in the middle, and the water surface seems to have four pillar-like stones exposed.

At this point, Zhang Yiqing stopped, and then said to me in a light tone: "Qin Huai, are you ready?" We'll see the river god later. ”
