Volume 1 Corpse Mountain Ghost Grass Chapter 31 The Girl's Life Story
So, we found the only place in the valley where the sun could shine down, and the yang energy was the most abundant, so we dug a big hole.
Wait until the next morning, Zhiguang's body was scrubbed and taken care of before it was officially put into the coffin and buried in the pit. Everyone cried again, Zhijing found a piece of wood and carved a tombstone for Monk Zhiguang, Da Zhuang said a lot of words with a handful of snot and tears, and the final meaning was: Good brother all the way, bless us all the best.
This night, the valley is surprisingly calm, this kind of tranquility comes more from the human heart, so that the Zhiguang monk can enter the soil for peace of mind is a lot better, in such a troubled world, human life is like grass mustard, it is also a blessing to be able to die peacefully, not to mention that I also got a good coffin, but I always feel that this place is a little heavier.
In the early morning, the girl reluctantly sat by a small tree, she had taken the tonic for three days in a row, her face had improved a lot, and it was estimated that she had no worries about her life. Hua Bo asked her word by word: "The girl said a Chinese word before, she should be able to understand my words, right?" Dare to ask the girl's name? ”
The girl's eyes wandered, looking us up and down, biting her lip and nodding.
"What does it mean to nod? Lao Tzu didn't look like a good person, and said......" A voice behind him scolded, it was Da Zhuang, I turned around, and saw that he was wielding a knife and glaring angrily.
"Even if you die, I won't tell people like you." I didn't expect this girl to come up with such a sentence, her Chinese is a little stiff, with a Western accent, even so it still exposes her weakness, but there is a bit of pride and nobility in her tone.
"You, you, you......" Da Zhuang blushed and was about to rush over.
I quickly got up and stopped him, turned around and asked, "Girl, we are all your saviors, you want to get out of here, you need our help, but frankly, it is really strange that you are buried here alone, you don't say anything, how can we trust you?" ”
The girl stared at me tightly, and it took half a cup of tea before she said: "My name is Gul Shati A Kurban, 'A' is the surname of heaven, you can't call it, my family name is Kurban, so you can call me Gul Shati, or Xia Ti." ”
Hua Bo nodded, "Gul Xiati, a very beautiful name, I see that the girl's body is very abnormal, what happened?" How did you end up buried here? ”
Xu asked about the sad place, Xia Ti wept and said: "When I was seven years old, I had a serious illness, my chest hurt, I couldn't eat, our Kurban family is a big nobleman in Shache country, the status is second only to the king, my father invited the world's famous doctors to diagnose me, but it has never improved." Later, a doctor named Zhang Pu came from the Han land, it is said that the medical skills are extremely high, there is the ability to bring the dead back to life, and he is also famous in Shache, and the family invited this miracle doctor to enter the house to treat my illness, since Zhang Pu entered the house, he let me take medicine every day, it is said that many of them are precious medicinal materials, but this food is nine years. ”
"What! What? Nine years? Da Zhuang exclaimed, with a bit of disbelief in his words.
Hua Bo was also surprised, glared, and sighed: "Nine years! How could you take medicine for so long! ”
Xia Ti nodded, "At first, the family was also very suspicious, thinking that the doctor was greedy for money and wanted to make money for our family, but after some investigation, I found out that the consultation fee we gave him was not enough to buy these herbs I ate, not to mention that my condition did not deteriorate, so the family let it go." Finally, a few days ago, after I took the last medicine, my body could not move, and soon I was out of breath, and I knew in my heart that I could hear my father's heart-rending cry, but on the surface it was exactly like a dead man. Then they put me in a coffin, and I was so scared that I wanted to tell them that I wasn't dead, but it was like a nightmare, and no matter how much I struggled, I couldn't move, and I couldn't do anything about it. ”
"In the end, three people escorted my coffin, walked all the way for a long time, and was buried here. Then I was able to move, and I struggled and screamed until I had no strength, and then I fainted, and I repeated this several times, and then I met you. ”
No wonder Xia Ti is very wary of us, especially Da Zhuang, who shouted at the beginning to burn her, if what Xia Ti said is true, then it is naturally clear in the coffin, and when he hears in the coffin that someone wants to burn himself, he can't do anything, so he can't be so afraid!
However, Da Zhuang still didn't have any energy, and he still didn't treat Xia Ti as a living person, and kept a distance of two or three feet from her.
I asked curiously, "Does the girl know who the three people who brought you here are?" ”
Xia Ti said: "I was in the coffin, so naturally I couldn't see it, and I could only hear two retinues calling the leader General Han, and the accents were Han people from the Central Plains. ”
That's right, the one who came here to bury Xia Ti must be General Han De and his two entourages, and then one of the entourages was unfortunately sucked dry by those golden-threaded locusts and became a human being. But what is puzzling is why General Han did this? If burying people in this mountain of ten thousand corpses is a curse on the souls of the dead, but what kind of blood feud can Xia Ti, a twenty-eight-year-old Uyghur girl, have with the general of the Han Dynasty? I guess there must be another mystery to bury Xia Ti from Shache here, and choose such a strange burial method......
The discussion was fruitless, and when they saw that it was getting dark, they took out dry food to satisfy their hunger. Zhijing gave Xia Ti a piece of bread, she was indeed very hungry, and devoured a few bites, but immediately spit it out again, clutching her chest, her expression was very painful. After a long pause, she told us that her stomach hurt badly, and that she had been like this for many years, and she hardly ate meals at home, relying on Zhang Pukai's herbs to sustain her life.
Hua Bo told Xia Ti that in fact, she was not suffering from a serious illness, but she was born with a weak spleen and stomach, but the illness had accumulated for too long, causing an ulcer in the stomach, and it would hurt when she ate. As for the self-proclaimed miracle doctor Zhang Pu gave her what kind of medicine she took, it is naturally unknown, but all the herbs in the world are spiritual things given by heaven and earth, and they can indeed be based on their different qualities, according to people's conditions, to save the life and help the wounded, but people must not rely too much on herbs, there must be a benefit and a harm, all things are born together, like Xia Ti who relies on medicinal materials, it is already difficult for the body to bear, if it continues like this, I am afraid that it will be a death in a few months.
Hearing Hua Bo say this, Xia Ti seemed very indifferent, as if she had nothing to do with her, no wonder, she also died once, and dying again should be considered a mastery, but she asked lightly: "How long can I live?" ”。
Hua Bo said: "Don't worry, girl, there will be a way." I'll prescribe a prescription for you, five dollars each for yellow flowers and codonopsis, decoction in water, once a day. However, stomach diseases are divided into three points and seven points of nourishment, and the symptomatic prescription has to be eaten for several months to be effective, as for whether you can survive the current hurdle, it varies from person to person, and it depends on the girl's creation. ”
Da Zhuang was still suspicious of Xia Ti whether she was a human or a ghost, so he was naturally extremely reluctant to decoct medicine for her, but he didn't dare to disobey Hua Bo. didn't say it explicitly, just stretched out his hand and said to her: "My master goes to the doctor, the consultation fee is five, don't take more than a penny, don't take a penny less, pay for it." ”
The person who enters the coffin, at most, only has the money to press, how can he bring any silver money, Xia Ti is helpless, knowing that Da Zhuang intends to embarrass himself, he can only tear off a gold bead on the hairpin and hand it to Da Zhuang, Da Zhuang took the gold bead and weighed it, went to his nose and sniffed it, grinned and threw the gold bead to the ground, and said: "What is this, a commotion, smell, Lao Tzu wants five cents, don't you understand?" Penny. ”
Xia Tixing's eyes widened, although her body was weak, she did not lose her momentum, and said coldly: "There is no money, you better return the coffin to me, and then stuff me in, and we will be clear." ”
I laughed out loud, this girl was really calm, and I saw Da Zhuang huffing and said, "You think I can't ......"
Hua Bo angrily reprimanded: "Wu Dazhuang, don't be rude!" ”。
"Master, this is originally the rule of our medical practice, not to mention her, she, she ......", probably wanted to say that she was not a human being, but seeing that Hua Bo's face was getting more and more ugly, Da Zhuang didn't dare to say any more, so he could only freeze on the spot.
When he was embarrassed, Shunzi ran over in a daze, picked up the gold bead from the ground and took a bite, and said without knowing the level of his eyebrows: "Brother Zhuang, this, this is really a gold bead, pure gold, it must be worth more than five cents." As he spoke, he handed over the gold beads, and seeing that Da Zhuang had no intention of taking them, he happily took out five coppers from his pocket, stuffed them into Da Zhuang, and said, "I paid for Miss Xia Ti's medical fee for her, and the gold beads belong to me, how about it?" Hey! After speaking, he pinched the gold bead and shook it in front of Da Zhuang and Xia Ti, making people cry and laugh.
"You... I...... Alas! Da Zhuang stomped his feet, and the helpless decoction went.
The next day, Xia Ti had recovered his strength, and he followed us to continue walking towards the valley. I didn't go far, but I actually found this kind of desolate graves in the Liuding Liujia formation, and the position of the formation eye was exactly the same, and there was also a coffin that was diagonally inserted into the ground.
Da Zhuang unconsciously glanced at Xia Ti and said, "Uh...... Is this the burial custom of the people in this place? It's not going to be another big living person inside, uh... Or maybe it's a goblin or something, right? ”
I shook my head and said, "No, this coffin is too old, and it's been here for decades." ”
Everyone looked around the coffin for a long time, but they didn't see anything strange, Da Zhuang said: "I can't see anything like this, let's open the coffin and see what is going on!" As he spoke, he was about to do it, and it seemed that he was not afraid to open the coffin in broad daylight.
But Hua Bo stopped: "No matter what is strange in the coffin, it is too disrespectful to the deceased to open the museum rashly, and it is better not to disturb it as soon as possible." ”
