Chapter 9: Uncle Qi
When I woke up, I was already in my bed, and my uncle was sitting in front of it, his face gloomy as if there was a storm at any moment.
When he saw me wake up, his face softened slightly, and he sighed, "Qi'er, didn't I tell you that you can't go to the ancestral hall?" Why don't you listen? ”
"I'm sorry uncle, I didn't mean to......"
The uncle is the big housekeeper of the Xiao family, and he is the most authoritative except for the little brother, so I am also quite afraid.
I knew that I had caused a big disaster this time, not to mention smashing the tablets of the ancestors of the Xiao family, and went to the strange grave place.
But I'm still curious about who is in the blood cloud coffin, and it doesn't look like a little brother in that dress?
But I don't dare to ask, if such a thing happens, Uncle will definitely not let me get any closer there.
Sure enough, without saying a word, he got up and walked to the window, looking out the window with his hands behind his back. It's not dawn yet, so I just candlelight to look at his back, and I feel very frightened.
I was afraid that he would kick me out of Xiao's house, so I got up and got out of bed and walked over to apologize to him. "Uncle, I'm sorry, I won't dare to do it again."
"I will send someone to restore the spiritual position in the ancestral hall, you don't have to blame yourself too much. But what I'm curious about is...... How did you open that seal? ”
"Seals? Do you mean the talisman? ”
I hesitated, unfolded the palm of my right hand, bit my finger and dripped some blood on it, and the rune came out.
The uncle was stunned when he saw it, and there was a very strange look on his face, as if he was very excited, and he seemed to sigh a little.
He grabbed my wrist and looked at it for a long time, and said, "Qi'er, can you promise Uncle one thing?" ”
"Huh?"
"Is it okay to drop a drop of blood in this bell every day in the future?"
"This ...... Is it any use? ”
"It's very useful, and if possible, you can see your little brother very quickly."
"Really? As long as I drop a drop of blood every day, I can see the little brother? "I'm a little ecstatic, as long as I can see my little brother, I can let him drink my blood every day, let alone drop a drop to the soul locking bell.
Uncle nodded, and said, "So you have to persevere, you can't stop for a day, otherwise your little brother will be gone, remember?" ”
"People know, uncle."
This agreement with my uncle was reached on the first day of my wedding to my little brother, that is, on the eve of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
I've always remembered this day, because on this day, my life was no longer my own, but that's for later.
Because of breaking into the ancestral hall, I was confined by my uncle for three days to face the wall, so when he said that I could go out to play, I rushed out of the Xiao family's house as soon as I slipped away.
I didn't seem to have had a good time in the village, so I went from house to house along the trail to say hello.
I'm a personal acquaintance, and the neighbors seem to like me a lot, and give me a lot of good food.
I got a lot of delicious food along the way, so I gave it to my friends who played on the village river dam, and I quickly bought them.
I became the king of children with almost no effort, and soon had two loyal little henchmen, a pair of dragon and phoenix twins.
The man's name is Han Xing, and the woman's name is Han Yue, two months older than me. I often take the Han star Han Yue brothers and sisters up the mountain and down the river, which simply brings out the nature of wild children to the fullest.
Fortunately, the uncle didn't say anything, just told me that the Xiao family is a famous family, just don't go too far.
On this day, I went to play with Korean star Han Yue again, and when I was passing by the intersection, I suddenly met the bald uncle who was very impressed on the night of marriage.
He was dressed in an ordinary cloth shirt, carrying a hoe and just returning from the vegetable patch, and holding a few fresh cucumbers in his hands.
I was a little jealous of him, but I still said hello, "Hello uncle." ”
He looked at me darkly, but handed me a cucumber. I was so greedy that I took the cucumber embarrassedly, thanked me and ran away.
When I came to Han's house, Han Xing and Hanyue were chopping wood in the yard, and I divided the cucumber into three parts and handed them both one by one.
While eating cucumbers, I whispered to them about the bald uncle.
Han Xing was stunned for a moment and said, "His name is Qi Tongsheng, and he rarely interacts with people in the village. I heard my grandfather say that he had seen such a person when he was a child, and he is still like that, and the people in the village said that he was a high-ranking monk so he would not die or grow old. ”
“…… Qi Tongsheng? Immortal and immortal? ”
I suddenly felt a little creepy, because I inexplicably remembered the walking ghosts in Chenjia Village.
But the people in this village should be real people, and if Qi Tongsheng is really a ghost, he will definitely not dare to come out in broad daylight?
But the last time he said about me, it stuck in my throat, so I became interested in him.
"Qiqi, where are we going to play today?" Han Xing asked me when he took the chopped firewood to the wall.
I came back to my senses and shook my head, "I'm suddenly feeling a little unwell, why don't we go another day?" ”
"Oh, okay."
When I got home, I deliberately took a detour and walked down another path, because the bald uncle's house seemed to be here.
In order to appear less deliberate, I also hummed a song all the way, and looked around as I jumped, and at a glance I saw the bald uncle sitting on the threshold munching on cucumbers.
"Uncle Qi, it turns out that you live here."
I walked over a little embarrassed, pretending to say hello. He glanced at me again and nodded slightly.
"Uncle Qi, you and my grandmother still have the same surname, her name is Qi Sanniang, and she is from Chenjia Village."
As I spoke, I secretly glanced at Uncle Qi again, and found that his appearance was quite upright except for being a little colder, with a square Chinese face.
It's just that his eyes are too hazy, so I ignore his appearance.
"Uncle Qi, do you live here alone?" I sneered and rubbed towards Uncle Qi's door.
It's just that as soon as I approached this house, I felt an inexplicable sense of depression, not from the uncle himself, but from his house, as if the house shook when I approached.
I saw it so really, I must have shook it. Originally, I was not far from Uncle Qi, but after walking a few steps, it was still that distance, and it didn't change at all.
I didn't dare to walk over, and looked into his house a few times, there seemed to be a few wooden stakes in his yard, which seemed to be very inconspicuous, but it would be very uncomfortable and depressing to stare at for a long time.
"Qi, Uncle Qi, I'm leaving." I said and ran away, Uncle Qi didn't say anything, and coughed heavily twice and entered the house.
I ran around the corner and glanced back, and saw that his house seemed to shake again.
