Chapter 189 The human heart is unpredictable and the face is yin and yang
In a daze, I seemed to dream that I stood up, it was still the edge of the West Flower Plain, the dense dark clouds had dispersed, it was already a sunny afternoon, and Shangguan Yan beside me was nowhere to be found, the West Flower Plain orchid was better than snow, and the petals that fluttered on my body were fragrant.
"Kill you, kill you, kill you, disfigure you, dismantle your flesh and bones, I will make you immortal!" I heard a woman cursing in pieces, and her voice was horrible.
I knew that I was safe in my dreams, that no one could see me or touch me.
I boldly followed the sound and saw a woman in a flamboyant costume crouching behind Hanahara's hut, not knowing what she was doing there, and vicious curses were coming out of her mouth.
I looked closer, creepy and gagging.
The woman is casting a spell on two villains.
There were bloody corpses of small animals thrown around her at random, and a small fire was set up in front of her, and a small pot was on the fire, and the soup in the pot was blood-red, which should be the blood of these animals, and there were two cloth villains boiling in it, which had been stained with blood, and the woman had been pricking the heads of the two puppet villains with needles, piercing them beyond recognition, and they couldn't see it at all.
The blood in the pot boiled over a low heat, and the woman directly reached out and took the two tattered puppets out of the pot, and slapped the top rope against the wall of the house, as if she wanted to use this method to shake off the blood on the puppets.
A shocking bloody dot splattered on the clean house wall.
She casually dragged the two puppet figures around the house, and the puppet figures were dragged around the ground desolately, stained with blood from the white orchids.
I could see her face clearly, her facial features were still delicate, but her makeup was very heavy, she might not have touched up or groomed properly for a few days, and the makeup on her eyes and lips was blurred and ruined, but she didn't seem to care at all, with a smug smile on her face, and looked at the cottage with a strange look.
This woman makes me feel so terrifying, her expression, her eyes, her absent-minded but very destructive movements, all inexplicably make me feel cold.
She walked around the hut for a while, stopped at the door, looked up at the wooden wind chimes on the eaves, and then she shook her hand, threw the rope tied to the top of the eaves and wrapped it with the wooden wind chimes, the blood-stained rope immediately strangled blood marks on the wooden wind chimes, the wooden wind chimes shook a few times, and shook the two broken bloody puppets hanging at the end of the rope, which felt like hanging two people.
Footsteps sounded in the room, and the woman hurried around to the edge of the corridor, staring at the people who came out of the room.
A little boy of eight or nine years old walked out of the house, he was very pale, very thin, as if he never saw the light without leaving the house, the skin on his face was so white that he could almost see the blood vessels inside, but he looked very delicate and lovely, with long and slightly square eyes, and his lips were slightly pink, like a porcelain doll carved in pink.
He also seemed to be afraid of the sun, so as soon as he arrived at the door, he immediately shrank back, looked around, and called softly: "Mother, is it you?" β
There was no answer, and the woman hiding outside the house stared at the boy, not knowing what evil she was planning.
The boy hesitated for a moment and turned to go back to the house, but with a click, he heard the sound of blood falling from the puppet.
He stopped, pricked up his ears to listen, took a step back, and looked upβ
The two bloody puppets wrapped in the wind were spinning, and drops of bright red blood fell with a "click", hitting the boy's eyebrows.
The boy wiped his forehead with his hand, apparently smelling the heavy smell of blood, and his eyes widened.
The woman hiding on the side pulled the corners of her mouth viciously, and with a flash of light in her hand, the wooden wind chimes fell from the eaves.
The two battered puppets smashed straight into the boy's face.
The boy was stunned, the puppet slid past his face and fell to the ground, he looked down to see that the puppets were so hideous and terrible that the blood seemed to flow from their broken bodies, he glared at the puppets, and reached out to pick them up, but maybe he couldn't bear the fear at last, and rolled his eyes and fainted.
The woman tugged at the corners of her mouth and laughed eerily.
This woman is so hateful! I really want to slap her a few times and do all this kind of prank.
I turned my head to look at the sick boy who had fainted with fright, and knew that I could not lift him up, so he fell to the door without paying attention, and I did not know how long I would lie down.
The woman stared at the boy, tugged at the corners of her mouth, walked slowly towards him, stretched out her hand, and put it around his neckβ
No!
What does this woman want to do?!
At this time, there was an out-of-tune humming sound, and a little girl jumped from a distance and ran over from the white flower column: "Aunt Yun, Brother Bo, I'm here~"
The woman gritted her teeth, and with that hideous expression as if she was going to devour her life alive, she stood up and wanted to leave.
The little girl wagged a dog's tail and the grass had come to the front of the houseβ
My eyes widened, isn't this who I was when I was a kid?
Run, this woman is not a good thing!
Xiao Yanfei let out a soft "huh", looked at the little boy on the ground, and then looked at the woman standing on the side who didn't have time to hide, tilting her head and thinking.
The woman turned her head and stared coldly at Xiao Yanfei, her expressionless face and eyeliner raised, which made people shudder.
But to my surprise, Xiao Yanfei was not afraid at all, and trotted forward a few steps, stretched out his hand to grab the woman, and called weakly: "Aunt Yun, what's wrong with Brother Bo?" Are you sick again? β
Cloud? Aunt Yun?!
That widow from the western slope, Yunlan?!
I was stunned, this woman was not at all the gentle and considerate Yunlan in front of my father that I imagined, and her heavy makeup and glamorous makeup were very different from the simple and thrifty appearance in others' impressions!
The woman lowered her head to look at Xiao Yanfei's tender white little hand in her hand, and squeezed it in her hand suddenly, and her nails painted with bright red Kodan seemed to be stained with blood!
Xiao Yanfei stared at the woman's nails and was stunned, but still looked at the boy on the ground uneasily: "Ah! Brother Bo's face is covered with blood, isn't it so painful! β
The woman looked at the boy thoughtfully, rolled her eyes and said, "Brother Bo? β
Xiao Yanfei broke away from the woman's hand and picked up the boy, and then she saw the two terrifying puppets that fell to the ground, and couldn't help but say, she was still timid, and she cried with a bang.
The woman looked around, afraid that Xiao Yanfei's crying would attract the attention of others, so she said impatiently: "You shut up for me, don't cry!" β
Xiao Yanfei was taken aback by the woman's fierce attitude, and sobbed, but had already stopped crying.
The woman squatted down and reached out to pat Xiao Yanfei's face, which was not an intimate caress, but a shot full of threats and intimidation, and the shot was crisp, and Xiao Yanfei's face was slapped red at once.
"Little slut, you are not allowed to tell anyone about today's affairs, otherwiseβ" The woman's bright red Kodan fingers plunged hard into the bloody puppet, and spun several times viciously, "You will end up like a puppet doll." β
I could feel Xiao Yanfei's heart full of fear, swallowing in her stomach with a full cry, she was indeed frightened, afraid that she would have many holes in her belly like a puppet - not to mention her, even I looked at it from the side, and my whole body was as uncomfortable as a thorn.
But why, I don't remember such a scene when I was a child? Is it any wonder that he was so scared that he deliberately erased it?
The woman stepped on the puppet, rolled a few steps, and walked away.
Xiao Yanfei hugged the boy and said with tears in her eyes: "Aunt Yun is so fierce, Fei'er doesn't like Aunt Yun anymore." β
The boy opened his eyes faintly, and looked at the woman's distant back in confusion......
I jerked myself out of my dreams and sat up screaming!
"Ouch my Bodhisattva, I'm scared to death - what's the matter, girl, does it hurt?" A round-faced woman leaned over and patted her chest as if frightened by my screams.
It's embarrassing.
I gasped and looked around, in an unfamiliar place: "Where is this?" What about Lord Shangguan? β
The woman smiled, she probably laughed a lot, so the corners of her eyes were full of laugh lines, and she looked very kind and hearty: "This is the courtyard of the Yamen, our young master is fine, and now he is resting in the next room, thanks to you, girl, otherwise I don't know what to do - tsk, it's really pitiful, tired, are your feet still frozen?" Or did it hurt somewhere? β
I touched the back of my head, it had been carefully bandaged, the clothes on my body had been changed, dry and comfortable, and even my wet hair seemed to have been washed and dried: "Yamen courtyard? So who are you? β
The woman poured me a cup of hot tea and said, "My name is Rong Ye, just an ordinary mother, you haven't seen me, but I know you, Miss Yan, the owner of the embroidery village." Hey, it's really unfortunate, Mrs. was still there just now, and I have been waiting for you to wake up and say thank you, but I really can't rest assured that the young master, I will let her go to the next room to feed the young master medicine first, she told me to take care of you, and notify her as soon as I wake up, so thank you, girl, for saving the young master. β
I covered the hot tea and had lingering palpitations about the affairs of Xipo: "It's serious, if the adults hadn't given me the clothes, I wouldn't have fainted in discomfort." β
Rong Ye sighed, then smiled again, and said, "Then girl, you can rest for a while, and I will go and tell Madame that you are awake, and she will be half happy." β
I turned over the quilt and got out of bed and said, "No need, I'm fine, besides, I'm a junior, how can I let my wife come to see me." I'm also going to see how the adults are doing, so why don't I go with Aunt Rong. β
As soon as she said "Aunt Rong", Rong Ye immediately blossomed, and giggled: "The mouth is really sweet, but it's okay, lest Mrs. can't rest assured that the end is over, then you put on more clothes, don't let the wind freeze." So saying, he draped two thick coats of wool over me, and the room was warm, and at once my face was warm.
