Chapter 277: Acacia Nectar (4)

"In this world, life is easy to pass, and love is difficult to escape. You and the old man surnamed Yun are probably also destined to be fateful! ”

Yin Yuan conjured a chicken leg out of nowhere, and while gnawing on it, he sighed, becoming more and more small.

"Love? Indeed, meeting him was a calamity in my practice. Bad fate? Now that I think about it, these two words are very apt. In the beginning, we were very good. He is smart and studious, and very motivated, and he is extremely attentive to me, and in order to help him realize the revenge in his heart as soon as possible, I do not hesitate to use my own magic to help him create all opportunities. Slowly, he changed from a kid surnamed Yun to a shopkeeper and a master Yun, and we also have our own children. ”

Bai Jiao said, subconsciously stroking her belly, as if the little life was still pregnant in her body.

"I never imagined that one day I would marry and have a child of my own, and that child would not be of the same race, but of a mortal. To be honest, at that time, I was also very nervous, because I didn't know what the children born of the Spirit Snake Clan and humans would look like. During that time, I was looking forward to it in unease, and I was restless in anticipation.

His business is getting better and bigger, and he has less and less time to stay at home. At that time, I was even a little glad that he didn't see me getting uglier and uglier, and even in the final stages of conceiving that child, I often couldn't help but conjure up my original appearance. ”

Bai Jiao said, moving her snake tail: "I am from Qingqiu, and I am the spirit snake clan of Qingqiu, but in the eyes of ordinary people, I am a snake demon, and I am a snake demon big enough to eat people." I'm glad that he didn't come back often at that time, otherwise he would have been scared to death like that person when he saw me! ”

"Like that guy?"

"That's right! Like that guy! Bai Jiao said and put away the snake's tail: "It was an early morning, and I went out for a walk because I felt uncomfortable in my stomach." At that time, we were still living in the old house of the Yun family in Shixia Village. In the early morning, the village was very quiet, and as I walked, I couldn't help but show my true nature, and then I was free to shuttle through the village. It was at that time that I suddenly met a man, a man who, like me, couldn't sleep and got up early to walk in the village. I was hiding, but it was still too late, and she only glanced at me, and was scared to death.

You should have been to Shixia Village, such a small village, someone was scared to death, what a terrible thing. I was very panicked, and in a panic, I wrapped the snake tail around the person and temporarily hid her in the ancient well in the village. ”

"Is that the haunted well?"

"Hmm!" Bai Jiao nodded: "That well is indeed a little weird. From the outside, it was just a very ordinary well, but there was a yin eye inside, and that yin eye led to a place in the underworld. At some time of the year, it nourishes the Yin Spirit, but at other times, it absorbs the Yin Spirit. I've lived in the well for some time, but I've never figured out the secrets it holds.

The time I swept the girl into the well with the snake's tail was exactly the time it nourished the Yin Spirit. Several people who are not ordinary people should know that if ordinary people die, their souls will leave their bodies within a certain period of time, or wander in the world, or wait for the ghosts to be taken to the ghost realm, but the people who fall into the well are different, their souls are all sealed into their bodies like clouds, and become immortal monsters, or they are sucked away, and some of them are left, and they become corpses. The girl I'm talking about has become a corpse puppet. ”

"Corpse golem?" Xing Ruyi had never heard of this name, so he looked at the fox.

"Something between a human and a ghost." The fox explained simply, and Xing Ruyi didn't ask any more questions.

"Childe is right, the corpse puppet is such a thing, saying that she is a human being, but it is lifeless, like a ghost, but if she is a ghost, it is not appropriate, so someone came up with the name corpse puppet. As for where this title first came from, it is impossible to find out. ”

Bai Jiao saw that the tea in front of everyone was already cold, so she poured it all out and changed it again.

"The day after I had dragged the girl into the well, the day I had planned to drag her up from the bottom of the well and put her in place, there was a commotion in the village before I could do anything. The villagers, who said that they had gotten up early to fetch water from the well, saw a man hanging from the bracket of the ancient well. ”

"Hang yourself on the stand of the ancient well! How is this method of death the same as the death method of those people in the Hu family? ”

"That's because the Hu family also has a corpse puppet, and this corpse puppet is inextricably linked to the ancient well in Shixia Village." Bai Jiao smiled: "I will tell you about the Hu family's affairs later." ”

"It's okay, compared to the Hu family, we want to know what happened to the Yun family back then."

"Then let's continue my story!" Bai Jiao stroked her hair. At this time, there was another noise on the street outside, and everyone looked outside, and there were more pedestrians walking on the originally deserted street. It seems that the spell that Yin Yuan had previously added to those people has disappeared.

"I thought it was the villagers who had found the girl I had scared to death and thrown into the well when they were fetching water. But when I got closer, I realized that it was an old woman. The old woman was wrapped around her neck by a cloud of algae and hanged herself from a stand at the mouth of the well. The face is distorted, and the eyes are turned upwards, revealing only a large area of the whites of the eyes. The tongue is long out of the mouth, just like the tongue of our snake clan, but the color of the eyes is blue and purple. In human terms, that kind of death is very terrifying.

The woman, whom I also recognized, was Niu Shi, who lived under the soaphorn tree at the entrance of the village. Her family makes tofu, so they get up earlier than usual, and most of the water used to grind tofu is drawn from wells. Just when everyone was panicking and speculating about the cause of Niu's death, Niu's son came. He only glanced at his mother, then sat down on the floor and began to cry.

Just when everyone was persuading and wanted Niu's son to mourn and untie Niu's from the bracket by the way, there was a sudden strange sound in the well, and then the bracket on the ancient well was broken, and Niu's body fell in response, and it happened to fall into the ancient well.

In an instant, there was silence! After a long time, Niu's son reacted and begged the village chief to have his mother's body recovered. Because I was pregnant at the time, I was persuaded by the village chief to return to the Yun family's old house, but I heard from the people in the village that they had been salvaging for a whole day and did not see Niu's body. ”

"Could it be that Niu's corpse was eaten by the corpse puppet in the well?"

"Corpse golems don't eat those things!" Bai Jiao said, raising her eyes and looking into the distance: "The so-called ghost in the heart, the heart is empty." Originally, I planned to sneak into the well after dark, take a closer look at the condition at the bottom of the well, and find out the cause of Niu's death by the way. Who knows, on that day, he came back after going out for business for a long time and not coming home. He came back with a young and beautiful girl, who called me sister as soon as we met, and said that she would take care of him with me in the future, so that I could take care of her more on weekdays. Although I have not been in the world for a long time, I also know that this young and beautiful woman is his concubine.

At that time, I was like an ordinary mortal woman, looking at him with that kind of disbelief, verifying gaze. He just glanced at me lightly, and said to me without the slightest guilt that from now on, I and the young and beautiful girl will be a family, and there will be no wives and concubines. After speaking, he led the young and beautiful girl to the main room, and while shouting at the girl, he asked me to move my things to the home remedies, and said that I was pregnant and should recuperate, and as for the work of serving him, let the girl do it, which can be regarded as considerate to me. ”

When Bai Jiao said this, she let out a sneer: "At that time, I was as lost as an ordinary woman, and even shed tears almost until dawn the next day. The old mansion of the Yun family, you have also been there, and that night, his love for that girl also fell into my ears. Now, I would probably sneer a few times, turn away, and never see that man again. But at that time, I was not so free, I was sad and sad all night, but they were accompanied by my tears and affection, I immediately had the intention of killing and wanted to eat them. ”

"But in the end, you still can't bear to attack him, do you?"

"Nope! It's not that I can't bear it, but I didn't have time. Bai Jiao said and glanced at Xing Ruyi: "Because of my anger, the fetus was unstable, and there were signs of childbirth early." I knew that if I gave birth, I might show up because I couldn't control it, and when the time came, it would cause panic in the whole village. At that time, I had only one choice, which was to hide, and the best hiding place in the village was the ancient well. ”

"That ancient well is indeed the best choice, strange things happen during the day, the villagers will not dare to approach the well, and any abnormal noise from the well is reasonable in their opinion." Xing Ruyi rubbed his temples, which were a little swollen and painful, and tried to regulate the air flow in his body that began to run chaotic again.

"The girl was right, I really thought so at the time. Before dawn, I hid in that ancient well and gave birth to my daughter. But that man has borne me so far, and I don't plan to let my daughter stay with him, and besides, at that time, I was still bent on eating them.

Just when I was about to take my daughter back to the Yun family's old house, there was a movement in the well, I hugged my daughter, followed the voice, and saw the girl who was scared to death by me, holding Niu's corpse, walking to a place. That place, I guess you already know, is the tomb where Miss Yun was buried later, to be specific, under that grave, is the Yin Eye. ”

"It sounds like this so-called yin eye is like becoming a demon itself. The corpse puppet is its slave, and the cow hanging on the ancient well stand is the food that the corpse puppet helps it find. In this way, those concubines of the Hu family are also the food that the corpse puppets are looking for. ”

"That's right! From a certain point of view, it is! Bai Jiao said and nodded.
