XXXIX To live is to live well
Her eyes became a little brighter, her pupils were dark red, and she felt that her body was warmer.
"If you drink my blood, you will be my man. This is my exclusive secret life-sustaining soup, and as long as I live in the future, you can exist as a person. ”
After the girl finished speaking, she took off the talisman from her forehead, pinched her waist and said, "Give you so much essence and blood, now I need to make up for it, go get me something to eat, don't steal it, wait for me to eat it together." ”
She wandered through the mountains and forests, and found that her body became much more flexible than before, and her running speed was also faster. She had a feeling called euphoria, something that she couldn't remember how long she had been away from her.
Suddenly, she smelled food, and it was a rabbit that had scurried up to her. Her speed at the moment was surprisingly fast, and the little rabbit felt a gust of cold wind rushing towards her, and was just about to flee when she was caught by a hand. She instinctively bit down on the rabbit's neck, and the rabbit struggled a few times before stopping.
The taste of blood is so delicious. She remembered that the girl had said she was going to take it back to make food, so she stopped here and went back to the cave the way she came.
Lu Xiaohua was sitting next to the fire and looking out of the cave, and when she saw her coming back, she shouted excitedly: "Ah, there is a roast rabbit to eat." ”
"Huh? Why didn't you drink the rabbit blood? Oh, you little fool, I just told you not to steal it, did you say that rabbit blood is not to be drunk. ”
She stood there in a daze, and felt so satisfied when she saw the girl laughing.
The girl was rummaging through the roast rabbits on the shelf, and at the same time took a branch and burned it into charcoal, and taught her to write on the ground.
"This word reads the Tao, the Tao of Heaven."
"Uh......" she felt her voice so ugly for the first time.
"The Tao, the Tao of Heaven." Lu Xiaohua said again patiently.
"Dao...... Sky...... ......She made a jerky voice, and she was a little timid.
"Great! That's it, the way of heaven. ”
"Dao Ke Dao, very Dao ......" Lu Xiaohua's patient and cheerful voice sounded in the cave.
"Dao Ke Dao, very Dao ......" She is also studying hard in jerky and unskillful.
……
Lu Xiaohua taught her to make a fire to hunt and teach her to read and write; Teach her the Tao, teach her the art of medicine. Lu Xiaohua would go out every few days, and every time she came back, she would bring her a new ancient book.
"This is the "Book of Humanity", which contains human acupuncture points and various medical techniques to treat diseases and save people, you have to learn it seriously."
"This is the thirteen needles of the ghost gate, you must practice it well. Yes, just use that straw man. ”
"This is Zhu Yushu, and it can also cure diseases."
"This is Shennong's Materia Medica, you have to memorize them all."
……
Slowly, she has returned to normal, but she still can't remember her name. just said something inexplicably: "What Gu Qing reads, it will be difficult to resist the shackles of life." had no choice but to die, and Yin and Yang were separated by two faces. ”
"Your name is Gu Nai. Well, Nana, good name. Just like my Lu Xiaohua. The girl was satisfied, and began to be complacent.
Lu Xiaohua left for longer and longer, and the time to come back to the cave became less and less, and one day, Lu Xiaohua said: "Gu Nai, I can't come back in the future." You have to live well. ”
Gu Nai didn't understand what Lu Xiaohua meant, and stared at Lu Xiaohua.
"I'm going to die...... I awakened the memories of my past life. In every reincarnation, I won't live to be an adult, and tomorrow I will be eighteenth birthday, and I may die. You're different, you're a zombie and you can live as a human all the time. Promise me that you will go to the practice of medicine and save people in the future, so that you can alleviate your sins of using your own kind as food. ”
Gu Nai suddenly felt a lot of pain in a certain part of his chest, which was once called the heart. Although there is no beating anymore.
"Don't go to me. I'll be back in a hundred years. Maybe it won't take a hundred years or decades to come back, you are my person, be obedient and wait for me to come back. After Lu Xiaohua finished speaking, she took out a big bowl from her handbag, and this time she received a bowl full of blood.
"Nana, drinking it can help you get some memories back. Alas, if I hadn't died, I wouldn't have given it to you. How many monks treat me as Tang monk meat anyway. ”
Gu Nai drank this bowl of blood, and put together some fragments in her mind, she saw that she had entered the Elu Mansion at the age of twelve or thirteen, and she also saw her son and husband die tragically, and she was so angry that she died.
She burst into tears and said, "The emperor is dead, my name is Gu Nai." ”
"It turns out that those memories are not happy. Let's forget about it. Lu Xiaohua dipped the remaining blood in the bowl and drew another spell on Gu Nai's forehead: "Now, you don't have to cry." ”
In Gu Nai's memory, only the joy of her entering the Efu Mansion and Wu Yingxiong's day and night was left. And, Lu Xiaohua taught her the first word "Dao" from the beginning to the present.
"Lu Xiaohua......" Gu Nai, who came back to his senses from his memories, muttered to himself, and after drinking the remaining half a cup of thick red syrup on the table, he lay on the bed and fell asleep.
She dreamed that Lu Xiaohua was back, but when she walked in, it was not Lu Xiaohua, but Lu Jia. She was so disappointed...... Tears flowed again. Who says zombies don't have tears?
……
There is a song called "Sister Hug".
Walk to the garden to see the cherry blossoms
The doll cried and called for her mother
The birds in the trees are laughing haha
Doll, why is the doll crying?
Didn't you remember your mother's words?
Doll, don't cry anymore
Tell me if you have anything on your mind......
- My sister is holding a doll.
After the Su Zi case passed, Lu Jia has been sullen.
She locked herself in her room every day and didn't come out, no one knew what she was doing.
One evening, Lu Jia sat on the swing in the garden with Mo Xue in her arms. A six-seven-year-old girl was also lying around with a doll in her arms.
"Sister, I can't find a home." The girl said.
"Where's your home?"
"I don't know..."
The girl lowered her head and gently stroked the doll in her arms.
Lu Jia looked at this doll and felt extremely uncomfortable, that doll... As if there was life, the dark eyes were watching her.
After a long time, the girl got off the swing, held the doll and walked away, Mo Xue glanced at the girl's back and turned over and continued to sleep. , Lu Jia saw that she was dragging a heavy bone chopping knife in her hand. Then, the girl's figure faded and disappeared.
That girl... Not people.
Lu Jia returned to the house and continued to study her own spells, how Jiang Hao and Leng Xiaotang were outside, or where the little girl and ghost boy had just gone, she had no time to care now.
When Lu Jia woke up the next morning, it was gray outside. The dark clouds were low, and it wasn't long before torrential rain poured down from the sky like a waterfall.
The rainy season in June was supposed to be graceful and beautiful, but when the raindrops that gradually turned into the size of beans fell overwhelmingly, the delicate woman instantly turned into a wild woman.
On this rainstorm morning, there was a small river in front of the remote village, and a woman was desperately picking up a pile of dirt in the woods by the river.
Her whole body was soaked with rain, her hair was clutched against her head in strands, because the rain was running down her cheeks, her squinted eyes, her eyelashes were covered with water, and her clothes were tightly wrapped around her body.
Panting, she fell to her knees, her hands on the dirt, not knowing what she was looking for. The muddy water was already standing all over her body, and her face was carried away by the rain.
She dug like this for a long time, and dug a dirt pit, and a pile of mud piled up next to the pit, and some of it was washed away by the rain. Her stubbornness didn't stop.
The captain took a hard puff of his cigarette and took a long puff.
"Protect the site."
The captain wrapped his coat, and the weather after the rain was still very cold. Threw away the cigarette butt and stepped on it a few times.
This case is very troublesome, and the surrounding traces have been washed away by the rain, and there are no footprints left.
The body was a man, lying in a mud puddle, already a little swollen after a night of rain soaking.
There are no scars all over the body, except for a deep purple mark on the throat, and the tongue sometimes sticks out and turns purple-black.
An examination of the autopsy showed that he had been strangled to death. But was he dug out of the earth, or was his body dumped here? Was it a premeditated crime, or was it ......
The case is somewhat clueless. He rubbed his temples, this unconscious little action was cultivated by him many years ago, and every time he encountered a difficult case, he would subconsciously rub it.
The police station in the jurisdiction assisted in the investigation, but no one reported the disappearance recently, and no relevant information about the man was found.
A short distance of two or three miles from the river, where the incident occurred, there was a small village, which seemed quiet and peaceful.
By the river in front of the village, some women are washing their clothes. Several women were talking about it:
"Eh, Aunt Zhang, have you heard? Two days ago, a dead man was found by the river. ”
"Yes, second sister-in-law Wang, I heard about it, and on the second day of the rain, the police cars came."
"You say it's scary, I heard that the dead crawled out of the soil, isn't this a corpse?"
"In broad daylight, don't talk nonsense......"
One of the women in the crowd did not participate in their discussion, she was quietly washing the white sheets, the mallets falling on the stones, hammering again and again.
Everyone is not surprised by her reaction, because she has always been so unsociable, and in the crowd, she is always inconspicuous and cannot attract people's attention at all. It seems that everything in this world has nothing to do with her.
"February, you don't talk at all, are you afraid of death?" A woman in the group suddenly said to the woman who was seriously bowing her head and washing.
"Huh?" This woman named February, obviously did not listen to their conversation, and was stunned for a moment when asked, looking very dazed.
The group of others who were discussing exchanged eyebrows and snickering with each other's eyes, waiting to see the excitement of February.
"February, did you hear what we just said? I said, "I've found a dead man by the river in the back!" Something flashed in February's eyes, and it was fleeting.
"Oh....." replied, and then continued to lower his head and thrash the sheets.
The woman was bored and turned away, continuing their discussion and speculation. A small voice in the crowd rang out: "Why are you telling her this?" You don't know she's stupid? ”
February's ears moved slightly, as if he hadn't heard anything, and continued to get busy with the work in hand.....
