Chapter Seventy-Three: Huang Xiangu (2)
"It's getting dark, let's go."
Looking at the dark sky outside, Huang Xiaomei said to Lin Shiying who was meditating.
"Go now? I'm going to catch that corpse keeper, Ziwei Zhenren. If he doesn't go now, he will run away completely after a long time. ”
Hearing Huang Xiaomei's words, Lin Shiying frowned and asked Huang Xiaomei. After all, he knew that if Ziwei Zhenren escaped, he would find another corpse mound and start over.
"Grandma doesn't like to wait for people, she said that she must have a reason to let you go tonight, and she said that if you go, she will not let you down."
Obviously, Lin Shiying's worries, Huang Xiangu had already thought of it. Therefore, hearing Lin Shiying's question, Huang Xiaomei told him directly that he must go.
"Well, in that case, let's go see your grandma first."
Anyway, the Huang family is a family member, and they can be regarded as old-timers, and Huang Xiaomei also said that she would not let herself down, so Lin Shiying could only go to see Huang Xiaomei's grandmother first.
For this Huang family, Lin Shiying heard Uncle Ying mention that it was fifty years ago.
Fifty years ago, Uncle Ying was still a slightly accomplished Maoshan Taoist. During a trip, he came across a zombie named Xuan Kui.
Xuan Kui was originally a family of four, once an official of the Qing Dynasty, was framed and unjustly died, because there was a resentment condensation, the body did not rot, and later a Taoist priest noticed something unusual, so he put the corpse beads in their mouths.
After a hundred years, by chance, two people inadvertently got the corpse out and sold the corpse to a foreigner, who did not understand Chinese Taoism and did not believe in the corpse beads, so they took out the corpse beads.
Later, the zombies resurrected and killed them all. And after some twists and turns, Uncle Ying killed the other three and let Xuan Kui escape, and in order to prevent Xuan Kui from being a disaster to the world, Uncle Ying chased Xuan Kui all the way to a cemetery.
It was also in that cemetery that Uncle Ying met the current head of the Huang family, Huang Xiangu. Huang Xiangu was arrested by Xuan Kui and almost died, and after Uncle Ying rescued her, he pinched his fingers and calculated that she had cultivated by herself, and there would be a creation in the future. So I didn't embarrass her and let her go.
This is also the reason why Lin Shiying is sure to meet the Huang family. Because he knew that he would not be harmed no matter what.
"Well, let's go now, then."
Seeing that, Lin Shiying agreed, Huang Xiaomei said with a sweet smile, because she knew that if Lin Shiying didn't go, grandma would be angry, and the consequences would be very serious.
"Hmm"
"Seying, are we going after that corpse keeper?"
I saw Lin Shiying coming down upstairs. Jiang Xue hurriedly stood up and asked.
"She's not"
"Oh, I still have some things, so I won't go yet, you can wait for me at my house and talk about it when I come back."
Hearing Jiang Xue's question, Lin Shiying, who was about to explain, suddenly found that Jiang Xue could see Huang Xiaomei, and hurriedly stopped her from going on. He knew about her family's affairs and didn't want Jiang Bing to know.
While stopping Jiang Xue, Lin Shiying was also secretly wondering, what was going on with Jiang Xue's eyes, not only could he see the root of the formation, but he could also see Huang Xiaomei, a spirit who didn't want people to see.
Because she was afraid of going out and causing unnecessary trouble, Lin Shiying directly asked Huang Xiaomei to lead the way in front of her. But in this way, Jiang Xue can still find out. This made Lin Shiying curious.
After Lin Shiying's reminder, Jiang Xue also remembered her brother who was still sitting on the sofa. I could only quickly nod and change my words.
"Mom, I'll go out for a while, and I'll be back in a while. My two friends will take the trouble to entertain you. ”
"Well, don't worry, take care of your own safety."
"Got it."
Looking at Jiang Bing, who was about to ask questions, Lin Shiying hurriedly walked out of the house.
"Let's go, you lead the way."
"Well, come with me."
After speaking, Huang Xiaomei led the way in front, and Lin Shiying followed behind Huang Xiaomei.
Huang Xiaomei and Lin Shiying did not go in the direction of the city, but went to the suburbs in the south of the city.
"I'm curious, where the hell do you live?"
On the way, Lin Shiying found that Huang Xiaomei was walking all the way to the suburbs of Chengnan District, and couldn't help but ask curiously, because there was nothing in the suburbs of Chengnan District, and it was still being planned to develop, and the one who developed there was Zhang Shujun, who was haunted by ghosts.
"You'll know when you get there. Let's go. ”
Seeing that Huang Xiaomei was reluctant to reveal, Lin Shiying had no choice, so she could only shake her head helplessly and follow Huang Xiaomei.
In this way, Huang Xiaomei was in front and Lin Shiying was behind, and after walking for about an hour and a half, the two came to a building. The building looks like an old-fashioned building.
"Are you sure you're here?"
Because in Lin Shiying's thoughts, how could they also live in a temple-like building, how could they become such old-fashioned buildings?
"I can't find my own house yet? Let's go. ”
Lin Shiying's words made Huang Xiaomei glance at him and then said, regardless of Lin Shiying's reaction, she walked directly to the gate of the building. Lin Shiying could only follow.
When Lin Shiying followed Huang Xiaomei into the door, he knew that he was wrong, and it was a big mistake. It's not an old-fashioned building at all, the buildings on the outside are just for deception, and the inside is a series of pavilions, like a huge temple.
"I didn't expect it, it turns out that there is no cave."
Lin Shiying looked back behind him and found that there was still the dark door behind him, which could be said to be a door that separated two completely different worlds.
"That's right, this is designed by grandma, grandma is afraid that the clansmen will run away or be killed, after all, not every Taoist priest can accept us like you. Actually, I ran out this time, and if my grandmother hadn't asked me to bring you back, I wouldn't have come back. When I came back, I couldn't get out. Hey"
Looking at Huang Xiaomei's sentimental expression, Lin Shiying wanted to laugh, obviously it was not a big deal, but it was like the sky was about to fall.
"Okay, I'll plead with you then, I"
"Little sister, you're here, grandma is waiting for you, come over quickly."
Just when Lin Shiying was about to help Huang Xiaomei intercede and let her go out to play for a few days, a voice suddenly sounded. Immediately after, a figure walked out.
"Third Brother"
Seeing the visitor, Huang Xiaomei cheered and ran to the person who came, this person was none other than the person Huang Xiangu called the third child.
"You're always so playful. Let's go, grandma waits. ”
The third child looked at Huang Xiaomei dotingly, touched her head, and then looked at Lin Shiying and said.
Lin Shiying didn't say anything, just nodded and followed behind them.
After a while, they came to an attic, and then Huang Xiaomei directly pushed open the door and walked in, followed by Lin Shiying.
Entering the attic, it was relatively dark, and Lin Shiying could only roughly see that this was a place similar to a room, but the difference was that it was very empty, with only two rows of chairs. Lin Shiying guessed that this should be the place for discussions.
And in the place directly opposite the entrance of the attic, there is a high platform, and the high platform at this time is so dark that people can't see the situation clearly.
"Grandma, I'm back."
"Do you still know to come back? Isn't it that I won't let you come back, and you don't know how long the wind will be outside? ”
Huang Xiaomei, who walked to the front of the high platform, shouted towards the high platform, and then a slightly old female voice sounded.
In front of Lin Shiying, a white-haired old lady suddenly appeared. said that the old lady was just because she was full of white hair and a little old, but in fact, she looked only about sixty years old for a normal human, but Lin Shiying knew that her actual age was probably no less than a few hundred years old. Lin Shiying knew that this person was the current head of the Huang family, Huang Xiangu.
"You're that little doll of the Lin family? The descendants of the ninth uncle? ”
Huang Xiangu came to Lin Shiying and looked up and down a few times before asking.
"Yes, the junior Lin Shiying, I have seen the old Huang senior."
Lin Shiying lowered his head slightly, and then replied in a respectful tone.
"Well, that's good. Do you know what I called you for? ”
Listening to Lin Shiying's respectful but neither humble nor arrogant words, and looking at Lin Shiying's respectful but dignified courtesy, Huang Xiangu nodded with satisfaction.
"The juniors don't know."
"I called you this time to say something about Uncle Nine."
