Chapter 24: Do you want to take revenge?
I think about it, now that everyone in this courtyard is talking about the change of color, and they are afraid to avoid it, who will come forward and provoke bad luck? When I turned around and saw Xiao Yan'er standing behind me calmly, I wanted to tease her: "Xiao Yan'er, you are bolder than Lan'er and Hui'er, do you dare to dig it?" Dig out the treasure and it's yours. ”
Xiao Yan'er's eyes widened, he bit his lower lip tightly, as if he had made a great determination, and stomped his feet: "I'm also afraid, but I listen to Miss, Miss will dig me if I ask me, and I don't want to baby." A look of death as home, righteous and awe-inspiring.
It's really rare, and I think I'm liking this kid more and more.
"Those who practice medicine are all snatching people's lives from Yama, and all kinds of bloody scenes may be encountered in the future, and it is not okay to be too timid."
Xiao nodded heavily.
I didn't want to tease her anymore, so I said to Hui'er, "Bring me a fire fold." ”
Hui'er couldn't wait to get far away, and she was no longer curious to ask me what I was going to do, so she rushed back to the house, took a fire fold, and approached me tremblingly and handed it to me: "Miss, do you need to take something to ward off evil spirits, cinnabar, peach wood, etc., I heard that willow branches also work, I will go outside the yard to fold some back?" ”
I couldn't help but be a little amused, reached out to take the fire fold, and covered my nose with my cuffs: "You don't need to take the cinnabar, it's here." ”
"It turns out that Miss has been prepared for a long time, I heard that cinnabar painting talismans can subdue demons and eliminate demons, people with high Taoist power can light fire with their fingertips, and paper talismans spontaneously combust in the wind, without fire folds. Miss is so knowledgeable, she can do this. ”
I patted my forehead helplessly, and I didn't want to argue with her anymore, so I shook the fire and burned it at the root of the vine for a while, and the red color of the earth on the ground gradually faded, and began to turn gray and slightly silvery.
Sure enough, it's cinnabar.
I called for a small sample: "Little sample, you see, there is no blood stain here at all, but cinnabar, which was originally a red blood color, but when it is hot, it changes color, showing a silver-gray color, and the smell is poisonous." ”
Xiao Er leaned over and glanced at it very curiously: "Sure enough, there is a record in the medical book that Miss gave me, it is a medicinal material that blindly calms the mind and awakens, why didn't I think of it?" He turned around and beckoned to Hui'er and Lan'er: "Come here, there is no blood here at all." ”
I picked up the soil twice, it was quite soft, and turned to Lan'er and said, "Bring me the flower hoe along the way." ”
Lan'er picked up the flower hoe outside the flower stand, walked over slowly, and when she approached, she suddenly threw the flower hoe in her hand, screamed, jumped out of the flower stand, and was so frightened that the flower changed: "Miss...... There's a ghost, she's snatching my hoe. ”
Where is the half figure?
In the middle of the day, the sun was shining brightly on the ground, and I felt my scalp tingle and my hands trembled uncontrollably.
This ghost dares to come out and be rampant?
I mustered up my courage and walked up to the hoe, and with trembling hands I took it, and it seemed that there was some mysterious power in the ground, attracting the hoe to fall.
My heart moved, and I tightened my grip on the hoe and dug into the ground a few times, each time with great difficulty. I had a spectrum in my mind, and I tried to dig hard where the attraction was greatest. The wound on my back ached a little after the sudden exertion, and I couldn't help but frown.
Xiao Er hurried over to help, took the flower hoe in my hand, and I was polite and pointed out the place to her.
Xiao Er was also a little frightened at first, gritted his teeth to endure fear, made enough strength, and heard a "ding" sound in two clicks, the flower hoe was bounced up, Xiao Sample's hand was shocked to numbness, and he threw the flower hoe out, and the flower hoe instantly came back by itself, and was firmly sucked by the ground.
Xiao Shan sat on the ground in surprise and asked tremblingly, "Miss, what is this?" ”
I pushed aside the floating soil on the ground, and as expected, a large black stone was buried underneath.
"What are you afraid of, this is the Cishi used to make Sinan and fighting chess, it can absorb iron, we also call it magnet, it is a medicinal material that can blindly nourish the kidneys and strengthen the backbone."
Hui'er and Lan'er leaned over suspiciously, picked up and put down the flower hoe, repeated the experiment several times, patted their hearts, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said, "I'm scared to death, it turns out that this thing is doing tricks." ”
At that moment, a few people were much more courageous, picked up flower hoes and shovels, and dug out the cishi, which was two feet square, which was really rare.
I turned around again and pointed to the floating soil at the base of the wisteria flower: "Dig this place up too." ”
Lan'er was a little embarrassed because of the fuss she had just made, so she came over and squatted down first, and dug up the floating soil with only a few easy strokes, and exclaimed, "What is this?" ”
Turning around, he broke a piece of vine, brushed aside the floating soil, picked out an object that had been soaked in red, and hung on the vine tremblingly, still dripping with bright red droplets like blood, and still a little elastic.
Hui'er also came over and carefully identified: "Why does it look like a pig's belly?" ”
Lan'er threw it on the ground and opened it with a stick: "Isn't it, when my brother was young, he wetted the bed, and the doctor in the village told my mother that when they killed pigs, they asked for a pig's belly to stew for him to eat." ”
Xiao Xiao suddenly became interested, and pulled one out of the soil in three or two clicks: "Miss, how can there be such a thing buried here?" ”
I patted the dirt on my hands and stood up: "Obviously, do you still need me to explain it to you?" ”
Before Xiao Er could speak, Hui'er shouted excitedly: "I know, miss, someone deliberately filled cinnabar water with pig belly and buried it here." When the gardener cut this wisteria, the roots of the flower shook, piercing the pig's belly, and cinnabar water seeped out, so it was mistaken for blood. ”
"Oh my God! Who was so bad that I was terrified all night yesterday. Lan'er said embarrassedly, a little angry at being teased.
Xiao'er's big eyes narrowed into a line: "It's not just you, the whole house is now making a lot of noise, and I'm scared a lot, now I have the capital to brag." ”
I pondered for a moment, waved my hand, and said, "Don't spread this matter first, just pretend to be scared when others ask about it." ”
"Why, Miss?" Lan'er and Hui'er asked in unison.
I shrugged helplessly and said with a smile: "Have you forgotten, I will be sent to the Fuhua Nunnery in two days, and I will be sent to the Fuhua Nunnery, and I am not at ease to leave you in the house." If this is the case, the people in other courtyards will not dare to come to the door to bully you, close the door, and live a few days in peace. ”
Hui'er and Lan'er were silent and didn't speak, and Xiao Xiang'er pursed her lips and said aggrievedly, "Miss, won't you take me with you?" ”
I habitually touched her bun head, although it has only been a few days since I entered the house, her hair is no longer so yellow, it seems to be smeared with a little rose oil, and it is much smoother: "No way, Miss, I was punished to reflect on it, even my grandmother only brought the fourth aunt to serve her, how can I take you there?" You are so noisy, won't you disturb the peace of the nunnery? ”
Xiao Shan pouted: "Miss, you dislike me again." ”
I was in an inexplicable mood, and laughed twice: "I heard that you are now meatless and unhappy every day, the food in the house is good, and you can wait for me to come back with peace of mind, and when the wisteria flowers will bloom, I will make purple carrot cakes for you to eat." Also, you have to read well, and I will come back to test your knowledge. ”
Xiao Yan lowered his head when he heard this, rubbing his toes against the dirt on the ground, looking a little sad.
"What's the matter, little one? As soon as you hear about the exam, you feel weak? I quipped.
"Miss," Hui'er secretly tugged at my sleeve, "Last time, when Miss Qingyin drove us out of Jinxiu Garden, she tore up a copy of the medical book you lent to Xiao Xiang'er. Xiao Xiao went up to grab it, and was slapped twice by Miss Qingyin, kicked to the ground, and broke his elbow. ”
I went to take the little sample's hand, and she shrank back two steps, and I glared at her angrily before she slowly walked up to me.
I rolled up her sleeve, and there was a bruise on her thin little arm. She hurriedly rolled down her sleeve and covered it, and whispered, "Miss, I don't hurt, it's already scabbed." ”
I stretched out my hand, bent down and touched her face, and said distressedly: "Fool, it's just a book, Miss has a lot of it here, and your body is the most important, a hero doesn't suffer immediate losses, you know?" ”
A layer of mist gradually formed in the little grape-like eyes, and his mouth was curled, but he finally held back and stopped talking.
I sighed, leaned over and asked her, "Little Look, I have been wronged, do you want to take revenge?" ”
Xiao'er's head shook like a rattle: "Miss, I'm not wronged." ”
I glared at her and feigned viciousness and said, "Tell the truth! ”
She immediately changed her tone and said in a low voice, "Yes." ”
The voice is like a gnat, but it is unusually firm.
"That's right, little girl, there is no need to say those words against my heart to me in the future, you are you, be the truest and purest you in front of me." I looked down into her eyes and smiled and encouraged her.
The people in this house are all wearing heavy makeup, and they have chosen a mask that is completely different from the real one, I don't know if they are tired, anyway, in the past few days, I have listened to Aunt Jiu's words and felt physically and mentally exhausted.
She is still small, and I don't want her to be put into this mold again, like the other subordinates in the house, saying the same compliments and wearing a similar mask.
Maybe it's because I'm still young, but I can see a little bit of her carefree shadow when I was in Cloud Mountain. I unconsciously became close to her.
It's possible that if I teach her like this, she will run into walls everywhere in the future and hit her head and bleed, but at the very least, she is still herself.
Lan'er and Hui'er glanced at each other and said cautiously: "Miss, don't cause unnecessary trouble for yourself anymore, we are not wronged at all." ”
Hui'er also spoke: "We are subordinates, and our status is low, and it is common for us to be beaten and scolded when we meet a strict master. Let's not take this matter to heart. ”
"However, Qingyin is not your master, I am. Even if you make mistakes, it will not be her turn to teach you a lesson. I, Su Qingwen, am not a person with a small belly and chicken intestines, but I am not a person who allows others to knead round and flatten the dough, people don't offend me, I don't offend people. I said in a sonorous tone, loud and loud.
