Chapter 545: Collecting Birds (66)
Listening to Aunt Nalian's question, I was slightly stunned, this question is not easy to answer. Speaking from my heart, I am very willing to resurrect Su Mengke, and I especially look forward to Su Mengke's resurrection, but this is obviously impossible. After all, life is not fiction, and there can be no resurrection.
Even so, I still have some expectations for Su Mengke's resurrection, but this expectation is not to resurrect her with a secret method, but to hope that all this is just a dream, and when I wake up, Su Mengke is alive.
However, the brutal truth tells me that all this is not a dream, but a real thing.
At that moment, I knocked heavily on the door of my head, and was about to answer her question, when I suddenly remembered that this Aunt Lian in front of me was not dead, how did she come back to life?
When I thought of this, I was stunned and blurted out, "Why are you still alive?" ”
She didn't seem to understand what I meant, looked at me with a puzzled expression, and asked, "What did you say?" ”
"Didn't you die trying to find Monko's body?" I say.
As soon as I said this, I immediately regretted it, if all this was just a game, her death might be fake. However, if this is the case, then why did Granny Qiao die?
She laughed and said: "You say this, it's very simple, our Qiao family has a secret method to prolong the life of people who are about to die, of course, it doesn't mean that the Qiao family will, this secret method is only known to my mother, she uses this secret method on me, and I can prolong my life for three years." ”
"You've calculated it from the beginning? Is the so-called search for the body fake? The purpose is to kill Granny Joe? I said coldly.
"Yes, that old thing's family view is too serious, let her accept Su Su as an apprentice in the early years, that old thing said that Su Su is not Qiao's family, and he refuses to teach him whether he lives or dies, and this kind of person is a waste of food when he lives, so it is better to die early." When she said this, her expression was very flat, as if she was saying something strange.
Hearing this, I was completely disappointed in this Aunt Lian, and I didn't ask her any more questions, because I already knew everything, and it would be a waste of time to ask anything more.
At that moment, I brought the question back to the norm and asked her, "Is there anything else besides kneeling?" If not, I'll be waiting for you next to you. ”
Her face sank, she grabbed my throat with one hand, and said angrily, "You mean that Su Su is not worthy of your knees?" ”
"She's worth it, you're not worth it." I knocked her arm off and said coldly: "The eaves are dripping from generation to generation, today you can calculate your mother, and on another day, your children will do the same, so you can do it yourself!" ”
After saying that, I ignored her anymore, walked straight to Qing Xuanzi, found a stool and sat down, crossed Erlang's legs, and then lit a cigarette and took a few deep puffs.
I will do this because kneeling in the sacrifice is just a sign of respect for heaven and earth, and I believe that even if she doesn't kneel, she will definitely have a way to replace it.
Sure enough, when Aunt Lian saw my movements, her face turned cold, her eyes stared at me deadly, and she said word by word: "Chen Jiu, today, I will ask you, whether to kneel or not." ”
I smoked on my own and ignored her.
"Okay, very good, I didn't expect Su Su to find a white-eyed wolf." She glared at me viciously, took out three red plastic cups from the snakeskin bag, poured some white wine, stood in the east, said a few more Miao words in her mouth, and then poured the three glasses of white wine into the small tower.
After doing this, she turned her head and glared at me again, and said, "If it weren't for the yin marriage that needed you, I dare to guarantee that you wouldn't live until tomorrow." ”
After that, she ignored me and continued to tinker with something in front of the little tower. After nearly half an hour, the fire in the small tower became smaller and smaller, and there was a faint tendency to extinguish, and the room was filled with the smell of rancidity.
At this moment, Aunt Lian found a piece of red cloth, and a big swallow was embroidered with black thread in the middle of the red cloth, it is worth mentioning that the swallow's wings were extraordinarily large, and a pair of claws seemed to be holding something.
At that moment, I glanced at Qing Xuanzi on the side and asked softly, "Dao Chief, isn't that red cloth a little inappropriate?" ”
He chuckled and said, "It should be ranked according to the zodiac, the dragon represents Miss Su's zodiac, which means the return of the swallow, indicating that Miss Su is reborn." ”
"Really useful?" I asked an idiot question.
"This is the meaning, just like every New Year's holiday, I will say the last sentence, Wishing you prosperity." He explained to me.
I understood what he meant, and without asking him any more, I looked at Aunt Nalian, and saw that she had poured some strange liquid on the red cloth, and then put the red cloth on the small tower, and strangely, as the red cloth went down, the flame of the small tower was immediately extinguished, and not even a trace of smoke came out.
Seeing this, I was stunned, could it be that I was short-sighted? Is there really a secret way to restore the flesh in this world?
Just when I was stunned, Aunt Lian sat on the ground, crossed her hands on her chest, and read some words that she didn't understand, and after about three or four minutes, some fine sweat broke out from her forehead, as if it was very laborious to read those things.
Suddenly, she stood up abruptly and shouted a word like a bell, "Worm! ”
Before the words landed, something strange happened, the red cloth moved irregularly, as if someone was poking up with a stick below, and what was even more strange was that I saw the swallow on the red cloth move, yes, it moved, a pair of wings danced.
"It's... I was speechless, and I pointed to the red cloth.
Compared to my shock, the Qing Xuanzi was much calmer, he patted me on the shoulder and said, "It's just a little trick in the rivers and lakes, don't be surprised." ”
I was stunned for a moment, and then said, "What do you mean?" ”
"You'll find out later." He smiled and didn't say anything more.
Seeing that he didn't want to explain, I didn't ask again, but I kept wondering how the swallow's wings could move, and how the red cloth moved inexplicably, was it really just a trick in the rivers and lakes as Qing Xuanzi said? Just like those people in the rivers and lakes say that they put one hand into the oil pot, it is actually vinegar instead.
After thinking about it for a while, I really couldn't think of a reason, so I suppressed the doubts in my heart, looked at Aunt Lian again, and saw her looking at the red cloth with a solemn face, and said fiercely: "God, supreme Gu God, please accept my request to let Su Su's body be reborn, for this reason, I am willing to go up the knife mountain and go down to the oil pot, and I hope that you will send down the grace and return me a lively daughter." ”
After speaking, she knelt down towards the small tower, kowtowed desperately, and kept repeating the words just now, that attitude was very sincere, even I couldn't bear it, in order to resurrect Su Mengke, she fought hard, but the result seemed to be doomed.
Aunt Lian knocked on the ground for about three or four minutes, blood came out of her forehead, and she didn't have the slightest tendency to stop, which surprised me, and I was about to step forward and pull her up, Qing Xuanzi grabbed my arm, shook his head at me, and said: "This side is very particular about kowtowing, the general situation is to kowtow three times, and if you are diligent and will kowtow to seven, if there is a big event to ask God, it will kowtow for a long time." ”
"How long?" I asked.
"Half an hour." He sighed and said: "This Xiangxi has always been mysterious, and many customs are not understandable to us outsiders, so we can't change the local customs, so we must learn to respect the local customs." ”
I was stunned for a moment and exclaimed, "If you knock like hers, you still have a life in half an hour?" ”
"Custom, let her go!" He gave up.
I snorted, I was also drunk on this custom, but the things handed down by the ancestors must have his reason in it, and a coffin bearer like me can respect it, where do I have the energy to care about how this custom is inherited.
Soon, half an hour passed, and Aunt Lian stopped kowtowing and glanced up at us, and this glance almost didn't scare me. I saw that her face was covered with blood, and the hair on her forehead had been dyed with a lot of blood, especially the position of her forehead, and even the white and shiny bones could be seen.
ps: It's not auspicious to write this kind of thing in the first month, and I hope you understand, Xiao Jiu is here to say sorry, start more tomorrow, and try to make up for what you owe before.
