Chapter Ninety-Nine: Gone in Smoke
I threw all the nails out with a hand, although I didn't have the right head, but I had a lot of weight, and there would always be a one that could hit the target!
Sure enough, Luo Yinfeng exclaimed. I slowed down and looked back to see black smoke coming out of one of her arms.
Looking at Uncle Qiu in the distance, he was quickly writing something on a piece of yellow paper with his fingertips at the moment. Bright red blood letters appeared on the yellow paper.
After he finished writing, he quickly pressed the yellow paper on the puppet's body, then pulled out the original soul killing nail and stabbed it hard.
As the nail was pierced, I saw that the puppet actually sparked and immediately burst into flames. The female ghost Luo Yinfeng in front of me immediately let out a terrible scream, she turned to look at Uncle Qiu, and was about to pounce on her.
However, she had barely aired and stopped. Then she twisted her body in pain, and her mouth couldn't stop growling.
Uncle Qiu put his two fingers together, swiped in front of his forehead, and then pointed hard at the puppet in his hand, and shouted: "Scatter!" ”
The puppet burst open with a "bang" and shattered into a lot of pieces of cloth.
At the same time, Luo Yinfeng in the air was like the puppet, his body exploded instantly, scattered into wisps of black ash, slowly fell to the ground, and was blown away by the wind in an instant.
I let out a long sigh of relief, and then I felt as if my body was about to collapse. I made a triumphant gesture to Uncle Qiu, and the old man grinned, shook his body, and fell to the ground.
I quickly ran over to help him up and saw a few drops of blood coming out of the corners of his mouth.
"Are you alright?"
The old man waved his hand and said, "Go and see the girl." ”
At this moment, Zheng Yifei had already fallen to the ground, so I quickly picked her up and pinched her chest. For a long time, her eyelids moved, and then slowly opened their eyes.
"Thank goodness!" I shouted happily, "Uncle Qiu, she's awake!" ”
The old man smiled and nodded, then coughed violently.
"Boy, come here...... Tell me, how do you know she's Yinfeng? ”
I quickly told him what had happened.
Uncle Qiu nodded and said, "Thanks to you!" I tried to dissipate her spirit, but it didn't work...... I thought that when people were old, their mana was no longer good! Damn, it turns out that the name is wrong. If it weren't for you, she'd probably become a demon by now......"
I shook my head and said, "It's all your old work, I'm just doing a little favor." I'll help you back to the house for a while! ”
As I spoke, I was going to help him to his feet.
Uncle Qiu grabbed me and said, "Wait a minute...... Here's ...... for you," he said, pulling out a small wooden box from his bag.
"There's a soul killer nail in there, not many. I've only been drinking every day for all these years, and I don't have time to refine more. I'll save it for your self-defense......"
I looked at him suspiciously, and said, "Don't, this is your magic weapon, what can I do?" Are you really worried about washing your hands? ”
Uncle Qiu shook his head and coughed twice.
"Boy, we have a fate, I like you a lot. I wanted to ...... ...... have the opportunity to teach you two tricks"
"Okay, wait until you can recover your strength......"
"Hey, where's my wine?" Before I could finish, he interrupted me and asked.
"In the antechamber! Why don't I bring you two bites now? ”
"No need...... Boy, I haven't asked you yet...... What's your name......
"Oh, my name is Ping'an."
"My name is Qiu Ming, tomorrow's Ming ......" I was wondering how he remembered to say this, and then looked at the old man in his arms, his eyes were closed, his head was tilted, and he didn't move.
"Uncle Qiu, Uncle Qiu! What's wrong with you, you open your eyes, don't scare me......"
At this time, a pool of blood flowed from his ear.
"Uncle Qiu—"
Uncle Qiu left, and the crew paid for him to be quietly buried in the forest behind the village. The tombstone was erected by me, and the inscription reads "The Tomb of Venerable Master Qiu Ming".
I specially asked a fellow villager to introduce a geography gentleman and pointed out a piece of feng shui land. When I was buried, I put his big cigarette pouch in the coffin.
Zheng Yifei recovered quickly and did not have any sequelae. The filming after the crew went very smoothly, and more than a month later, the location was completed. Director Tang wrapped me a big red envelope, but I wasn't happy at all.
Before leaving, I took two bottles of good wine bought from the town and went to Uncle Qiu's grave to pay respects to him.
I take a drink and pour a glass into the soil. Talking while drinking, chatting and crying. After crying, then drinking, and then talking.
"Uncle Qiu, I'm ......," I said and let out a wine burp, "I really can't find the north......" After speaking, he fell asleep on the grave......
Back in Beijing, Bai Xi came to pick me up at the station. As soon as we met, I hugged her in my arms.
Bai Xi was startled and pushed me out. I hugged my hand tightly and didn't let go, my nose was sore.
"Life is impermanent, and you may die one day. We have to cherish the present......"
"What are you going to do?" I could hear her voice a little flustered.
"Would you like to be my girlfriend?" I mustered up the courage to say it.
Bai Xi was stunned.
"You ......"
I realized that my confession might have been too abrupt. Before she could finish speaking, I hurriedly pulled her in front of my eyes and stretched out my index finger and gently pressed it on her lips.
"Don't be in a hurry to refuse me, you should think about it, even if it is...... Leave me a glimmer of hope......"
She didn't say anything more, and looked at me with big eyes. I couldn't help but hold her tightly again, and she stopped resisting and snuggled into my arms like a kitten.
When I got home, Bai Xi poured me a glass of water and sat across from me looking at me.
"What's going on? Why did you suddenly start thinking about life in the universe? ”
I lowered my head and sighed softly.
"I met an uncle when I went out this time, and he was very nice, but ...... Say no, it's gone......"
I didn't dare to tell her about the ghost, I didn't want her to worry.
Bai Xi's little hand gently put his hand on my shoulder and patted it gently.
I wiped the corners of my eyes and said, "Don't talk about it, let's talk about your door!" ”
She had already sent a WeChat message to tell me that this trip was in vain.
Bai Xi pouted and said, "We followed the clues to check, and later found out that the bracelet was not Yinggou's bone bracelet." ”
I nodded and said, "Don't worry, let's take our time!" ”
In the evening, Bai Xi said that he would take me out to eat and give me a wind, just like a host.
I chose a restaurant and while eating, she asked me, "How do you know I don't agree?" ”
"Well, what?" I didn't understand what she was saying.
"What you said at the station."
"Oh!" I quickly put down my chopsticks and sat upright.
"Because. I know I don't deserve you......" I bowed my head as I spoke.
She bit her chopsticks, raised her eyebrows, and said, "You are full of self-knowledge." ”
My heart suddenly cooled.
"But ......" As soon as I heard her words, I immediately came to my senses and my eyes widened.
