Chapter 016: Baby Bone
Uncle Niu's face sank, and he pushed me, "Bite your finger and put a drop of blood on her seal." ”
The situation was urgent, and I instinctively did as he said, and put a drop of blood on Xiaomei's eyebrows.
Xiaomei took two deep breaths and smiled weakly at us, seemingly relieved.
I looked at Uncle Niu suspiciously, why did he use my blood?
Uncle Niu burned a piece of rune paper, mixed the rune paper ash with water and drank it, and then tied the rope and went down the well.
Ten minutes later, he crawled up covered in mud with his coat in his arms.
Through the gap in my clothes, I saw a small bone stained with mud.
He said to Xiaomei: "I will bring back the child's bones, the method must be used, this well will be completely filled, there will be nothing in the future, you can live with confidence." ”
The Xiaomei man said gratefully, "Thank you, Master Niu." ”
Saying, he sighed, "I didn't tell Xiaomei about this, what you have in your arms should be my little sister, the third child in the family, after being pregnant, my parents wanted to beat it off, but in the end they were really reluctant, thinking that even if they were fined, they would have to give birth, who knew that in five months, my mother fell while working and had an accidental miscarriage." ”
The more he said, the more guilty he became: "It just so happened that someone came to the village to check that day, my mother was originally hidden under the bed, and then went out in the middle of the night to bury it, I was not stingy when I was a child, I was afraid of being found and secretly threw it into the well, and was beaten for a long time, and afterwards my father also went down to the well to look for it, but I didn't find it, my parents burned paper by the well every New Year's holiday." ”
Uncle Niu hummed, "Don't worry, I'll send her away." ”
When I came out of Xiaomei's house, I asked him in a low voice, "Uncle Niu, why did you use my blood just now?" ”
It would be obvious that he was closer to Xiaomei.
"Let this baby remember the smell of your blood, so that she can bring her back to the store."
He pointed to the baby bones in his clothes as if he was offering treasures, and said: "Generally, babies have grievances when they are miscarried or die, and if they are not handled well, they will become evil spirits. ”
He paused, and then said: "I found Yu Yang's father's grave, but the location is remote, we will have to spend some time back and forth, I am afraid that the Wuyue Array will completely fail during this period, so I want to use the baby bone to make up for it first, although it can't be completely repaired, but I can buy some time." ”
I looked at the thin bones that were exposed, and I thought that if this child could be born and grow up normally, he must be a person with a good heart.
Back in the store, Uncle Niu put on the offerings, lit incense, sat cross-legged on the ground, pinched the talisman paper in his hand, closed his eyes and recited: "Taishang Edict, Chaoru Lonely Soul ......"
I silently retreated to the door of the store, and my dad also recited this, when he told me that it was a Taoist mantra.
Uncle Niu recited it nine times, but the yellow talisman in his hand did not burn.
He frowned and looked at the baby bone, and it took a long time before he spoke: "Cong, you go to find a small jar, she doesn't want to go, so you can raise her, how much can protect you." ”
I tugged at the corners of my mouth, not at all happy, "No need." ”
The matter of raising ghosts is very scary in itself, and it has nothing to do with whether you raise good ghosts or bad ghosts, and I really don't want to challenge them.
The shop stuffed with dead people's hair, ashes, and bones was enough to drive me crazy.
"You listen to me about this, your life will not be peaceful in the future, and it will be good for you to raise her." Uncle Niu said affirmatively.
Uncle Niu said so, and I couldn't refuse anymore, so I had to wash the jar of pickles and give it to him.
"Uncle Niu, according to what you just said, after making up the Wuyue Formation, there will be other things?" I asked, puzzled.
