Chapter Seventy-Five: The Summer of the Bird (3)
That night, Ouyang Anna lived in a makeshift barracks.
When Qi Yuanshan returned from the Japanese Army Non-commissioned Officer School, he learned the vigorous and resolute behavior of Japanese soldiers, and held an all-night meeting with the commander of the engineer company to discuss the camp engineering plan and plan to build a fortress. He expected it to be completed by winter, and the Beiyang government would garrison troops in Qianling, down to Xi'an, up to Ningxia, west to Lanzhou, and east to northern Shaanxi, enough to monitor the warlords in the northwest. As for him Qi Yuanshan, he may be able to gain a foothold in Shaanxi, cultivate his own power, and become a prince.
But for Ouyang Anna and the nine-colored mother and daughter, the first night they came to Qianling was destined to change their respective fates.
They slept in the tent, and the sappers set up a marching bed for her, made her a simple cradle bed, and even had a marching toilet, which was separated from Qi Yuanshan's bedroom by a screen.
After the last feeding, Anna put her daughter in the shaker. On the baby's little ankle, a small monkey bell of pure gold is attached. This child is a monkey and is said to be able to ward off evil spirits and avoid disasters. Nine colors are sturdy, have never been sick, and are stronger than most boys. She was born on the summer solstice, and today is August 28 of the solar calendar, the seventh and a half months of the lunar calendar, and it is only 67 days old.
Anna then remembered that today was the Midyear Festival.
No wonder many people burned paper money in the graves along the way, and the shooting of tomb robbers was also chosen today, probably it is more convenient to reincarnate today. Sleeping at the gate of Wu Zetian's Qianling Tomb, Anna was anxious all night, afraid of who she would dream about? But after a long journey, she couldn't stand the tiredness and fell asleep listening to her daughter's breathing......
It was past midnight, and Ouyang Anna heard the child's cry.
Turning over in panic, he saw a pair of dark green eyes lit up in the depths of the dark tent. It was too late to light the kerosene, so she turned on the flashlight placed on the bedside and revealed a naked woman.
The first feeling is a dream? At the foot of a pair of nipples, in front of a woman's grave, dreaming of a woman's nakedness?
The woman had long black hair, a swollen belly, and a pair of large breasts on her chest, and at first glance she was pregnant, but her appearance was very young, even smaller than Anna, perhaps only eighteen or nineteen years old, with a pale complexion and green eyes, as if she were a dead man. She picked up the baby from the cradle bed. Although the nine colors are small, they are very smart and know what danger is, and they immediately cry.
It's not a dream! The child's cry connected the mother's heart, and it hurt heartily.
"Give it back!"
Anna stumbles out of bed to snatch Nine Colors back from the pregnant girl's grasp. But the other party turned around and hugged the child, and directly smashed through the wooden reinforced tent and rushed out.
The moonlight of the Midyear Festival shone on the Nitou Mountain of Qianling, and the war horses in the camp neighed in panic, as if they saw some fierce beast or monster.
Ouyang Anna chased out, did she run into a trafficker? But Jiuse is a girl, who will steal the girl these days?
Unbelievable, the pregnant woman holding the nine colors has a pair of wings behind her back, and gray feathers grow all over her body...... But she still maintained her girlish face, her hair was draped behind her head, and in the cry of a little baby, she smiled coldly at Anna, flapped her wings, and flew away.
"Far mountains! Far Mountains! Anna called her husband's name in despair, "Someone! ”
Finally, Qi Yuanshan rushed out of the camp next door and saw a big bird flying in the night sky. Nine colors were crying in the sky, and several soldiers were about to shoot, but he stopped them: "Don't shoot!" You're going to hurt the kids. ”
Rat-throwing traps. Ouyang Anna longed for herself to grow wings and become a monster like a pregnant girl.
There was a piercing cry in the air, so loud that it could not have come from a small baby, and it quickly turned into an owl-like wail, which was terrifying to hear.
Qi Yuanshan hurriedly shot a signal flare into the sky, trying to light up the night sky, but to no avail. In the middle of July, the moonlight reappeared in the thick clouds.
Anna had gone crazy and cried so much that she was crying out to the ground. Qi Yuanshan ordered all the soldiers to assemble, search for any suspicious flying objects or women within a radius of ten miles, and break into the doors of farmers when they encountered them, and take all the babies back.
Everyone has a difficult face, this is the night of the Midyear Festival, looking for monsters around Wu Zetian's mausoleum, you can have the psychological quality of a tomb robber.
"Violators are shot on the spot!" Qi Yuanshan took out a pistol, "Find the child, and all the staff will reward 10,000 yuan." ”
Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men. The soldiers were gearing up and scattering in formation, but none of them dared to be left alone, and they moved separately in squads, loaded with guns, lest they encounter anything evil, such as those dead ghosts who had just been executed during the day.
Anna carried the horse lantern and ran directly to the Qianling Shinto, thinking of Wu Zetian's grave to find her daughter. Qi Yuanshan followed closely beside her, telling her to calm down for a while. But she couldn't calm down, like a she-wolf who lost her cubs, and if she was given a knife now, anyone could be hacked to death by her.
Qi Yuanshan didn't dare to imagine - if this poor little daughter, Qin Beiyang's posthumous son was really lost, would Anna kill herself or go completely crazy?
He forcibly grabbed his wife's shoulders: "Have you seen clearly?" What the hell is that? ”
"She's not human."
"Obviously, but could it be a ghost?"
Anna knelt in front of the sixty-one headless horsemen and wiped the tears from her cheeks: "Auntie...... Obtain...... Bird ......"
"Gu Yu Bird?!"
"Legend has it that the obsession of the dead mother, often haunts the summer night, walks in the night with the baby in her arms, and the baby's cry turns into the cry of the bird. It is said in ancient books that the Gu Bird rises at night during the day, and the clothes and feathers are flying birds, and the hair is taken off for women, and they like to be raised by the son of man. A Heavenly Emperor girl, a nocturnal wandering girl, a hook star, and a hidden flyer. Wherever there is a child's house, do not show your clothes at night. ”
Qi Yuanshan said helplessly: "How do you say the northern dialect?" If you are not afraid of thieves stealing, you are afraid of thieves. ”
Once upon a time, there was a young man who saw six or seven girls in a field, and each of them took off his sweater. He hid all his sweaters, but the girls retrieved them, put them on and turned into feathers and flew away. But there was a girl who, unable to find a sweater, was married by a young man and bore him three daughters. Later, she asked her daughter to secretly ask the child's father, only to find out where the sweater was hidden? She put on her sweater and flew away. Soon after, she flew back secretly, took three sweaters, and let the three daughters put them on, and as a result, they all grew wings and flew away with their mothers, and this is the story of Gu Won Bird......
The moonlight of the Midyear Festival came out again, Ouyang Anna broke free from her husband, stumbled through the wordless monument and Weng Zhong, and fell twice in the middle, climbing to the top of the Qianling tomb in one breath, just like climbing the top of Wu Zetian's head.
Looking far into the dark night of the Guanzhong Plain, the fields at the foot of the mountain are lit up with sporadic lights, like the ghost fire flickering in the cemetery on a summer night, and it must be the cavalry and sappers who are searching for birds and babies everywhere.
Anna burst into tears again, and slammed the ground several times with her palm, as if hitting Wu Zetian's scalp, and said loudly without hesitation-
"Then the Great Sage Emperor of Heaven! The little woman Ouyang Anna is offended, please listen to me - Anna is familiar with history books, knows you well, and admires and admires you. You're a woman, you've been married to two men, and you've slept with other men. You have given birth to four sons and two daughters, and you know better than anyone that babies are the meat of your mother's heart. Tonight, in the middle of July, this child came all the way from Shanghai to Qianling, not to be a sacrifice for you, let alone to think about the tomb buried in your underground palace. For 1,200 years, countless people have perished for the so-called secrets in your mausoleum, and your burial goods are so numerous that you can't even bury the whole mountain, are you not satisfied? Gu Shou Bird is the embodiment of the resentment of the dead mother, I dare say it must have something to do with you. Please save our mother and daughter and return the nine colors to me. Although I have nothing to repay, I will swear to guard the tomb for you for the rest of my life, so that the tomb robbers will never dare to come close to you. If you don't give me back your daughter, I will use Western science, use Nobel's explosives and bulldozers to dig up your grave, open your coffin, expose your decay and ugliness to broad daylight, and cut off your skull. It's time for archaeologists to see the true face of the emperor and empress. ”
Nine-colored's grandfather is the leader of the Dharma Mountain pirates, and the boss of the Shanghai Youth Gang who has killed countless people. Twenty-year-old Ouyang Anna, who was deeply inherited from her father, was not afraid of China's unprecedented female emperor, but rode to her head and blatantly threatened.
The night was vast, and the Qianling tomb under his feet faintly emitted some strange vibration. The emperor's undead in the dungeon felt Ouyang Anna's anger, better than all the chaotic ministers and thieves and the golden captain throughout the ages. A strong northwest wind blew in the sky, carrying the yellow sand of the desert, which seemed to be mixed with the voice of a certain person, coming from thousands of miles away, and the chirping of flying insects was vague, and it lingered in the ears.
It seems to be Qin Beiyang's voice?
