"Evil obstacles, don't disperse yet!"

The Taoist priest shouted, and with a wave of his hand, a large puff of red powder was spilled out by him, turning into smoke and facing the water monkeys under the hood.

As if water dripped into the oil pot, the water monkeys were terrified, scattered in a hurry, and did not dare to show their heads in the Huai Shui, and the sound of "poof" continued one after another.

The remaining brave water monkeys still refused to flinch, and let out a terrible scream at the boat.

The Taoist priest was unhurried, and with another wave of his hand, a white thread flew out of his hand and nailed it to the forehead of one of the water monkeys, who immediately fell to the ground on his back, convulsing.

The rest of the water monkeys could no longer hold on and fled one after another, and the originally noisy river beach was cleared and emptied in a blink of an eye, leaving only one water monkey lying on the ground unable to move.

I was dumbfounded, and I drove away so many water monkeys with a wave of my hand, this Taoist priest is too powerful! Think about Wang Yunfeng's half bottle of vinegar again, which is completely incomparable with others, this is called a master!

"Oh my God! Is this an encounter with a fairy? Sister-in-law Mai Xiang trembled when she spoke.

The Taoist priest jumped off the boat lightly, turned around and waved his hand, and the ferry immediately turned around and sailed to the opposite shore.

The Taoist looked at us, smiled slightly, and said loudly: "This place is ominous, let's go home quickly, I want to do a Fa here." ”

I hurriedly picked up Aunt Yue, who had softened into mud, turned around and left, the Taoist priest is obviously a person with great ability, he wants to do it, he doesn't want us to see it, where do you dare to peek?

As soon as I ran a few steps, I remembered something, turned around and shouted loudly: "Master Dao, we are from Aconitum Village, just in front, please go if you have time!" ”

I think of it, our village is dying one after another, and the big guys are living in fear, if we can invite this Taoist priest to go, he has such a great ability, he should be able to help us solve it.

The Taoist priest was very kind, arched his hand at me, and said with a smile: "I will definitely visit, please go back." ”

With the promise of the Taoist priest, I am determined to look forward to the stars and the moon, which can be regarded as a great savior!

"Xiaoxi, you scholars are still smart." Mai Xiang's sister-in-law is also happy.

Aunt Yue sighed weakly: "Let's go home quickly, I'm scared here......"

At that moment, we carried Aunt Yue on our backs and rushed back to Wutou Village.

In the center of the village, many people are waiting anxiously, and the village head, Guo Jiazhu, is also there. When he saw us coming back with Aunt Yue on his back, he immediately surrounded us and asked what was going on.

On the way, the three of us had already discussed it, and we lied, saying that when Aunt Yue came out to fetch water last night, she saw a wild boar coming down from the Qinling Mountains into the sorghum field, and she went in to catch it in a hurry, but it was dark and she couldn't come back by herself.

She lost her memory of last night, and she couldn't explain it, so it was better to lie than to panic unnecessarily.

After hearing the explanation, the villagers blamed one after another, what kind of wild boar did they drive at night? Even if you want to rush, you have to ask someone to accompany you. However, the villagers were not suspicious, and this level was over.

The village chief began to instruct people to inform the big guys, and Mai Xiang's sister-in-law helped the "lame" Aunt Yue to go home.

After the crowd dispersed, I grabbed the old village chief and excitedly told him about the Taoist priest I had just met, and now our village was saved!

However, unexpectedly, the old village chief just nodded thoughtfully, indicating that he knew, and was not very excited.

Perhaps, he just didn't believe that Dao man was really capable, right? Thinking so, I said goodbye to the old village chief and hurried home.

In fact, when I went out, I was unsettled, there was a female corpse hidden in the house, and the blind guy was not very reliable, but nothing happened.

I hurried all the way home, pushed open the door, and was relieved to see the blind man sleeping on the bamboo bed.

A smell of alcohol came, and this old guy actually drank early in the morning, and I was also drunk.

"Blind, how is my mother?" I asked, turning around and closing the door.

The blind man was woken up by me, sat up with a sigh, stretched his waist with sleepy eyes, and said impatiently: "What else can the corpse do?" Are you still afraid that she won't be able to escape? ”

However, I still didn't dare to relax, and when I returned to my room, I lifted the mosquito net, only to see the female corpse still lying in the same position I had left.

When I saw the female corpse, my nose was sour, and I couldn't help but want to cry again, if nothing else, this is my mother. When she came here with me in her arms, after giving it away, I don't know whose poisonous hand it was, and she was locked at the bottom of the Huai River.

I always thought that even if a relative was reborn, it would be far away, but I didn't want her to be by my side silently for the past 20 years......

If I had known who had killed my mother, I would have killed someone! Avenge her!

"Let's mourn." The blind man patted me on the shoulder.

Glancing back at him, I nodded.

Next, the blind man sat on the edge of the bed, stretched out a finger and pointed it at the center of the female corpse's eyebrows, closed his eyes and investigated.

Leaning slightly, he opened his eyes, sighed and said, "It seems that I didn't expect it badly, this ...... Your mother's soul has left her body, and now she can be buried. ”

When I heard this, I couldn't help but cry again, and I had more or less a glimmer of hope, but now I was all disillusioned. The mother has been at the bottom of the river for so many years, and the mother and son have just met, and it is the eternal secret......

"It's so hot now, after the soul leaves the body, the body will quickly decay, and there is no delay, so it has to be buried as soon as possible." The blind man babbled and persuaded.

The more I cried, the more sad I became, lamenting the misery of our mother and son, and then I became sad again. There are coffins in Cangshan Town, the question is, where can I get the money to buy coffins?

There is only one mother, and no matter what, I can't let her sleep without a coffin.

"You...... Lend me 3,000 dollars? "Turning to the blind man, I pleaded pitifully. This old guy is lonely, and I heard that he is also a master of food, but he just received 3,000 yuan from others, and he has not had time to spend it, and he happens to have money.

The blind man was stared at by me for a while, and his face twitched, but in the end he sighed and took out the pile of money, "I'll lend you filial piety first, who made us fated; By the way, you will have to pay it back in the future! ”

"Don't worry, I'll pay you back with interest." I promise.

This is borrowed money to bury my mother, doesn't it mean that even my mother is pitted, the old guy's worries are purely superfluous.

After taking the money from the blind man and telling him, I went out.

It's still early, and I'm going to pull the coffin back tonight and bury it while it's dark. The origin of my mother's body is unknown, I don't want to be seen by the villagers, and it is enough to have my son to die for her......

I went to Aunt Yue's house, first, to see if she was good, and second, to borrow a car from Aunt Yuhe.

Aunt Yuhe runs a commissary and needs to go to Cangshan Town regularly to buy goods, so there is a set of donkey carts at home, and the donkey is led to Aunt Yue's house, and the cart is still at home.

Aunt Yue was completely fine, and when I arrived, she was cooking with Aunt Yuhe, and the two of them were chatting affectionately. After explaining her intentions, Aunt Yuhe didn't say a word, and gave me the key to the house, without even asking about the purpose.

I took the donkey, and went to Aunt Yuhe's house to put on the car, I whipped and went on the road, left Wutou Village alone, and rushed to Cangshan Town to buy a coffin.

Cangshan Town is 20 miles southeast of Wutou Village, located on the water and land thoroughfare, there are tens of thousands of households, it is a big town, I studied here in junior high school and high school.

In the early years, when the official grain went north, it was necessary to go through the ferry of Cangshan Town, but now this function no longer exists, and the town is gradually dilapidated.

In the afternoon, I rushed to Cangshan Town, where there were few pedestrians on the old street.

It still retains the style of the early years, and the houses are all made of green bricks, and over the years, they are covered with moss. The road on the street is paved with bluestone slabs with deep rut marks, which have been pressed out by the official grain wagons for hundreds of years.

Now except for the foreign merchants who come to collect mountain goods in season, there are almost no outsiders in sight, giving people a dilapidated and full of vicissitudes.

Wang's blind man's house is here, the last one in the old street, and next door is the only coffin shop nearby. He told me to give me his name, and the shop could give me a discount......

At the innermost part of the old street, I found the blind man's house, the gate was closed, and a fortune-telling flag was hung. There was a stone pier beside the door, and on top of it sat a man who was sleeping with his head on his knees.

It was a young girl, who looked a little younger than me, eighteen years old at most, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, and was quite handsome, with slightly dark skin and a healthy wheat color. She was wearing a water-red shorts and gown, the kind with ruffles, and a circle of metal around her waist, like a fishing net, golden and covering her small buttocks, and I couldn't help but look at it more.

"Who are you looking for?" The girl asked me first, I have a foreign accent, I have little knowledge, and I can't tell where I am from.

I came to buy a coffin, and I didn't want to make a fuss, so I pointed to the coffin shop next door and said, "I don't look for anyone, I go there to buy things." ”

The girl ignored me and continued to sleep with her knees hugged.

Tethered to the donkey cart, I walked into the door of the coffin shop.

I was greeted by the chubby shopkeeper, because he had just come some time ago, he still remembered me, and hurriedly walked up with a heavy face, patted me on the shoulder and comforted: "Young man, the mourning is changing, the deceased is gone, and those who are alive must live well." ”

Although I knew that people were just professional habits, I still accepted his kindness, nodded silently, and said in a dumb voice: "Boss, I'll buy a longevity wood and bury my mother." ”

According to local customs, coffins are divided into men and women.

The shopkeeper stepped aside, patted a white wooden coffin, and said, "There is only this one left in the women's longevity store, the best cypress!" Let's not waste time, a fixed price, 4,000 yuan. ”

I couldn't afford 4,000 yuan, so I hurriedly said: "Don't rush to make a price first, I haven't finished speaking, I was introduced by Wang Yunfeng." ”

As soon as the words fell, the yellow shadow around me flashed, and then I looked, a two-foot-long leopard appeared out of thin air on the coffin, with a pair of sapphire eyes, staring at me faintly.

I was taken aback, subconsciously shrank back, and grabbed a stool to guard.

The boss was also frightened and yelled and went back behind the counter.

In the chaos, the little leopard was not surprised at all, and looked at me coldly.

At this moment, a familiar female voice came from the door, "Phantom, come down." ”
