Chapter Ninety-Four: The Goddess Asks
An old woman sat on her knees in the hall with an altar in front of her, filled with incense and candles, offerings, and an idol of a god. I don't know where this idol is, it is sacred, shirtless, facing the vicious, and majestic.
In addition, there are also all kinds of paper people and paper horses on both sides of the hall, the workmanship is not fine, but it feels gloomy, especially the paper man, the pale and distorted faces, hidden in the dim candlelight, as if they will be "resurrected" at any time!
"Fourth, fourth aunt, I regret it, can you cancel the ghost kiss." Ren Qiyun said a little timidly.
"Once you choose, you can't regret it, it's only because you agreed in the first place." An indifferent and loud voice sounded.
This goddess is different from what I imagined, I thought it would be a ghost and a god chattering. But she was unusually calm, and even the kneeling posture was upright, revealing a trace of coldness.
"But, but you said before that my daughter would be fine, she is very weak in bed now, and something may happen at any time!" Ren Qiyun said.
The fourth aunt didn't turn her head, and sneered: "She has lost her yang energy, and she is entangled by the old ghost who got married, of course she looks like this, as for her lifespan, you can rest assured, if there is no accident, at least she can survive for a year." โ
She can say the word "rest assured"! It's at least a year, it's a long year, isn't it? Besides, lying half-dead in bed for a year is worse than death!
I really don't have a good impression of this old woman, I thought she was a nonsense goddess before she came, and now it seems that this old woman is not a good person. Old man Ma said that all spells that can kill people are demonic techniques. This marrying a ghost beggar, in exchange for her life, I am afraid that it is also evil magic.
On the surface, I still said respectfully: "You can't cancel the ghost kiss, but there should be other ways, that girl is also pitiful, and now her mother regrets it, I hope you can make it convenient and help." โ
The old woman didn't say a word, but turned her head to look at me. She has thin cheeks, high cheekbones, and an expressionless face.
She turned her head and continued to face the direction of the altar, and said with some disdain: "Is it you kid who wants to help them?" I can see that you can endure humbleness, but when you just entered the industry, my wife reminds you that once you do something, you can't go back, otherwise you will have to pay a heavy price. โ
"There's no way, I can only gamble, who told that girl that I know, I can't just watch her die in pain." I said.
She sneered a few times and said contemptuously: "I can't do it!" Since you are a peer, report to the master and see where you come from. โ
"I don't know what's going on, my master's surname is Ma, and he's just a thin old man." I said.
She was shocked when she heard this, stood up from the ground, and turned to my side: "What do you say! Your master is an old man! โ
Knock knock! There was a sudden knock on the door.
"Fourth aunt, there is something to find! Is my wife in you? A voice came from outside the door.
Ren Qiyun suddenly panicked, it seemed that the person who came was her husband Wen Yong.
"Fourth aunt! Fourth aunt! If she tells you anything, don't listen to her! Wen Yong said a little nervously, obviously worried that Ren Qiyun would regret it.
Ren Qiyun looked at the old woman in a panic, and begged in a low voice: "Fourth aunt, I beg you, I regret it, save my daughter, I regret it." โ
The old woman did not respond, but beckoned to the shadows, and jingle the bellโa bell ringing from the corner. I looked into the corner where the bell rang, and there were no living people or animals such as cats and dogs, just a pale and twisted paper figure leaning against the wall, with a rattle hanging next to it.
Fang Cai or the paper man can't shake the bell?
The door opened, and a man entered, not tall in his early thirties. He looked at Ren Qiyun and then at me, anger appeared on his face, and he was about to scold.
"This is a junior of a friend of mine, who came here to visit me, and when he came to the outside of the village and didn't know the way, he happened to meet your daughter-in-law, so he brought it over." The old woman said suddenly.
I was surprised, I didn't expect her to excuse me.
Wen Yong was also stunned: "Yes, it's your relatives and friends, I thought it was something...... Since I am a relative and friend of the fourth aunt, I should have entertained me well, but there have been some things in my family recently, which is inconvenient. โ
"It's okay, brother, you have something to do, you're welcome." I said in a familiar way.
Wen Yong's face was full of doubts, he glanced at Ren Qiyun, and dragged her out.
When they were far away, I stepped forward and closed the door.
"Thank you just a lot." I said.
"You don't have to thank me, you are really the apprentice of the old man?" She asked, looking at me.
"If the old man in your mouth is the same person as my master, then I am undoubtedly his apprentice." I said.
She walked a few steps left and right, looked me up and down, and was suspicious: "Old man Ma will also accept apprentices?" It's still such a stinky boy like you, you're not lying to my wife! โ
"I don't have to lie to you, I don't know who you are, and I don't know what you have to do with Malao." I said.
She looked at me carefully, and said in a moment: "I believe that you are the apprentice of the old man Ma, for the sake of knowing the old man, I will tell you how to get rid of the ghost kiss." โ
I was a little surprised, I didn't expect that reporting the name of the old man would work: "Then thank you." โ
She turned her face, and a strange look flashed through her eyes.
"If you want to dismantle, it's easy to say, it's hard to say, it's a process, it's up to you to complete it," the old woman said, "You must first find the bones of the old ghost, take away one of his bones, and then find the girl who married the ghost, prepare the altar, place the tribute, light the incense and candles, let her kneel in front of the altar, tie her little finger and the old ghost's bones with the red thread stained with chicken blood and her blood, and then one person, that is, you, preside over the recitation of the book of severance, after reading, whether he agrees or not, The red blood line was cut with scissors, and since then it has been cut in two, and there is no further involvement. โ
"That's it?" That doesn't sound that complicated.
She sneered: "You can finish reading the book of severance and then talk about it, that old ghost will definitely refuse to break off, and will come to make trouble, if you kid can't stop him, the consequences will be up to fate." โ
I asked her specifically about the location of the old ghost's grave, how the altar was placed, and the content of the broken book, and she answered them one by one very cooperatively.
How big is the face of the old man? But when she mentioned Old Man Ma, her tone didn't seem like she had a great friendship with Old Man Ma.
At last, she said, "You'd better go and look for the bones at night, the woman's husband doesn't want to cancel it, and if he finds it, he will definitely come out to obstruct it, don't worry, the old ghost is haunting the girl, not on his grave." โ
