Chapter 84: Female Taoist
I searched the wing, even the front room and the backyard were checked, where is there still the shadow of Uncle Li!
Chen Yihua ran to Lin Lao's side and asked him if he had seen anyone come back, Lin Lao thought for a while and said, "There should be no one in or out, I woke up in the room, I was cold, so I came out and lay on the straw and dozed off." ”
I'm worried in my heart, seeing that we have to go back this afternoon, this Uncle Li's body is suddenly gone, I can't leave him alone, right?
"Brother Li shouldn't be a corpse, right?"
I sat on the ground, thinking that even if it was a corpse, I couldn't leave the open room, the houses in the countryside have high thresholds, unless Uncle Li became a zombie jumping three feet high, it was possible to jump out of the house, but zombies can't be transformed overnight, my brain is messy, and I don't even have any clues about where to find the corpse.
"Guoqiang, could it be that the ghost of the Yin Si Hall took Uncle Li's body away?" Chen Yihua asked.
I shook my head and said, "They have Uncle Li's soul, what do they need corpses for?" ”
Chen Yihua pouted, she also said casually, if you think about it, you will know that it is definitely not the ghost of the Yin Si Palace, Lin Lao heard the two of us say strange things, he suddenly slapped his head, his body trembled violently, and said in a panic: "Could it be true?" ”
When I heard this, I hurriedly asked him what could not be true?
"Guoqiang, didn't I sleep cold in the house, I pulled the quilt cover, but I was still frozen and my bones hurt when I fell asleep in a daze, just when I was curled up in the quilt and shivering, I seemed to hear Xiaoxue's voice, it was the female student who was doing research with me, she asked me to go out to bask in the sun, but when I opened my eyes, there was no one in the room, I saw the sun shining in from the window, and only then did I come out to bask in the sun."
Lin Lao muttered, and then said: "At first, I thought it should be a dream, you know, Xiaoxue is a sensible child, she respects me very much, I have always treated her as a granddaughter, it is not strange to dream of her." ”
I understood Lin Lao's words, nodded, and told him: "It should be a dream, this is a good dream, which means that Xiaoxue cares about you in her hometown, so you can dream of her and hear her reminder that she cares about you." ”
Lin Lao nodded and didn't say anything more, but I was very upset in my heart, and concluded that Uncle Li's body was taken away by Xiaoxue, but it was not strange that she could come to this remote mountainous area of Guizhou as a girl, so why did she take Uncle Li's body and not meet us?
I thought about it, if I hadn't seen Xiaoxue in Yin Si City, I wouldn't have been able to make this kind of judgment, Xiaoxue, this female doll is very hidden!
"Old Lin, what kind of family is Xiaoxue?" I asked.
"A diligent and motivated girl, as for her family, I don't know, I have to go back and check her school status." Lin Lao said.
"Did you recruit her to the institute, or did she sign up for it yourself?" I say.
Lin Lao shook his head and said, "No, she was introduced by an old friend of mine, saying that the child is a good seedling, let me teach her for two years, why are you suddenly curious about Xiaoxue, is it interesting to her?" ”
I squeezed a smile into my face and said, "It's kind of interesting." ”
Chen Yihua glared at me coldly and said, "What time is it, it's still interesting, is it interesting?" ”
I ignored Chen Yihua and asked Lin Lao: "That old friend of yours, do you know about the project you are working on now?" ”
Lin Lao nodded and said, Ah, I talked to her, so she recommended Xiaoxue to me, this child is really good, with high understanding, he can teach it, he is much more sensible than that Xiao Ding, you also know Xiao Ding.
After I asked these words, I got Lin Lao's reply, and I had a faint idea in my heart, but I didn't point all the fingers at Xiaoxue, but I suddenly remembered Xiao Ding's death in my heart, and Lin Lao once inadvertently said that Xiao Ding's grandfather's identity is very unusual, at least the height that people of my level can't understand, I think it is necessary to meet Xiao Ding's grandfather, maybe I can find out the truth of Xiao Ding's death, if it is the same as what I guessed in my heart, then Lin Lao's old friend is very suspicious.
I kept thinking about this complicated matter, and it wasn't until Chen Yihua pushed my arm that I woke up and asked me, "I will summon spirits, but I won't summon corpses, will you?" ”
I glared at her, looking at the "you" she called, obviously a little unhappy, I shook my head and said, "I will raise the corpse, I have never heard of the corpse." ”
Chen Yihua also glanced at me, Lin Lao looked at the two of us bickering, he shook his head and walked back to the house, retrieved the mobile phone from the socket, and after turning on the phone, he found that there was no signal in the deep mountains and old forests, not to mention calling back to the research institute to report, even the time on the mobile phone was messy, Lin Lao's teeth were itchy, I beckoned him and said: "Lin Lao, let's go back to the city first, let's talk slowly." ”
"Leaving now?"
Lin Lao and Chen Yihua were stunned, Uncle Li's body was not found, should we ignore him?
"Yes, Uncle Li should be fine, since he took his body, it will definitely be useful, naturally it will not let his body rot, as long as his body is intact, I still have some way." I explained it to him seriously.
"There's someone down there, right?" Chen Yihua snorted coldly, put his hands on his waist, twisted his waist arrogantly, and walked towards the entrance of the village.
I stared at her back, thinking to myself, this woman has eaten gunpowder?
I checked the items on my body, there was nothing missing, and then I took two pieces of beef as dry food at Luo Honglin's house, and then helped Lin Lao to walk outside the village, Lin Lao was in very poor health, and he had to rest if he couldn't walk for a while, fortunately, when he insisted on Shijie Village, there were two mule carts that entered the city to catch the market, Chen Yihua went up to greet him, and asked if he could take a ride, and let Lin Lao sit on it.
The fellow who drove the mule cart was very enthusiastic, he was about the same age as Lin Lao, but his appearance looked much older, and the uncle saw that Lin Lao's face was black and his lips were white, it should be that he was not lightly ill, so the old man hurriedly made a place for the mule cart to come out, and took a bag of rice and put it under Lin Lao's buttocks.
"I said, you three, why did you come to our remote mountainous area, aren't you tossing around?" The old man said with a smile.
I didn't tell him the truth, just said that Lin Lao came to Tianmen Village to visit his comrades-in-arms, and it may be the last time they met in this life, the old man was quite sad after hearing it, and comforted Lin Lao a few words, saying: "People live like that for a lifetime, it is all hung by emotion, one day there is no emotion, what is the difference between dead and alive?" ”
I'm right, the uncle is quite open-minded. The old man laughed, lit a homemade tobacco leaf, and said: "What is open-minded, like my son died ten years ago, and my grandson was also an adult, thinking that he could still live, how do you know that his grandson is also dead, what do you call this, why is it not me who died, the old man, who is alive now, no different from a dead person." ”
As soon as I mentioned the old man's heart, I just wanted to apologize to him, my brain exploded, but I couldn't ask the uncle directly about this sad thing, and I was thinking about how to open my mouth, Chen Yihua suddenly said sadly: "Uncle, I have been to your village in the morning, and I am really sorry for what happened in your village." ”
The old man spat out the broken tobacco leaves, and said: "Hey, it's all that damn Taoist priest, saying that our village is outstanding, if we build another mountain temple, we can bless us with the wind and rain in all seasons, food and clothing, children and grandchildren are all officials, but where do you know, since the temple was built, the village is not peaceful, the young and strong generation has had accidents one after another, a few years after the success of the temple building, all adult men, all of them do not live to be eighteen years old, you say that this temple is dedicated to the mountain god, that is a good thing to accumulate virtue, why did it become this matter of cutting off children and grandchildren?" ”
I glanced at Yihua and motioned for her to continue asking, Chen Yihua naturally understood my eyes, and she followed, "Where did the Taoist priest come from?" I'm afraid it's not to cheat you out of money, I've seen the land temple, where is the mountain temple? ”
"Mountain gods? A few years ago, we thought that the plague temple could not be kept, so we knocked it down, as for the land temple, it was built by the ancestors, and it was left behind for two or three hundred years, we didn't dare to move, just let it go, little girl, you said that the Taoist priest cheated money, it's really not like that, all the money to build the temple was all from the Taoist priest, and also gave us labor fees, five yuan a day, put it more than ten years ago, it's not a small amount of money! ”
"Have you made a statue of the mountain god?" I asked.
"Of course, you have to ask for a statue, there are temples and no gods, and if you live in a town in the barren mountains and mountains, you won't be a nest of mountain spirits."
The old man is very talkative, he spit out the tobacco leaves in his mouth, when he built a temple to invite the gods, he was a personal participant, said in detail, the more I listened, the more strange I felt, and asked him: "Although you have good feng shui, but the geographical location is too remote, where can you ask the gods?" ”
"It's not clear, anyway, it's all the Taoist priest who bought it, let's make money, but the statue of the mountain god, no head, just a sturdy body, ouch, you said that we should keep an eye at that time, even if I ask more, I'm afraid I won't lose my children and grandchildren in old age." The old man shook his head silently as he spoke, looking very remorseful.
"Headless Idol?" I thought to myself, how can a god be headless?
Chen Yihua was also stunned and asked me, "Does the mountain god have a head?" ”
"The mountain god and the land are all small gods like sesame officials, usually in the previous life, they were great benevolent people who accumulated virtue or Maoshan disciples who had achieved cultivation, and the headless god statue was the mountain god, which is unheard of!" I say.
"Little brother, do you know this?" The old man was a little surprised, looked at me and said.
I don't dare to say that I am a Taoist priest, for fear that he will be angry, and drive the mule cart for Lin Lao, I said that when I was a child, I heard my family talk about these things that the gods talked about, and the old man said: "At that time, the female Taoist priest, I remember the surname Li, she also had a reason, she said ......"
As soon as I heard her say that she was a female Taoist, I was stunned and asked him, "The surname is Li?" ”
