Chapter 59: Dead Baby
Where did you get this baby?
An Yi didn't think about it, the female corpse would be unfavorable to the baby at any time, she squatted down, hugged the baby in the bushes, and took a closer look, the baby had many dark spots on her face, and her white eyes blinked at her.
After a scream, she let go of her hands, and the baby fell to the grass, crying, and she turned around, and the female corpse was already standing behind her.
Before An Yi could react, she was hit on the head by the female corpse with a stone and fainted on the ground.
The silly brother woke up and found himself sleeping next to the pyre, An Yi had disappeared, he searched in the yard, did not find her, accidentally knocked down the chicken coop, and the cooing sound of the chicken led the family out of the house.
Aunt Auntie grabbed the corner of the stupid brother's clothes, "You fool, you dare to steal my chicken." ”
"Didn't steal, didn't steal. The stupid brother's denial drew a burst of angry scolding.
The aunt asked her husband to go to the village to find the stupid brother's parents, because he was woken up in the middle of the night, and the mother slapped the stupid brother's face.
"Brainless waste, I usually give you food and clothing, but I actually learned to steal chickens, and I threw it at home, and I killed you this waste. Mother found one in the pyre and swept it at the stupid brother's big foot, and he immediately became unsteady and fell to the ground, and his father also stepped forward and kicked him with his foot.
The couple's actions stunned the aunt's family, and they were afraid of making a big deal in their yard, so she and her family walked over and pulled the two apart.
The stupid brother with a blue nose and swollen face got up and limped up the mountain, he didn't know what he had done wrong, his parents didn't like him since he was a child, and sometimes even if he didn't do anything, he would be scolded and slapped when he sat there. His parents were very angry, and every time he went to the mountains to hide for one night, he would be fine when he came back.
In this freezing season, staying in the mountains will freeze, and he thinks of the cave he found when he was a child playing with Kaiming.
The cave is on the cliff wall, he walked up along the path he walked when he was a child, there are no roads in some places, only the position of one foot can be stepped on, he must keep his body close to the wall, the higher the narrower, his feet are much bigger than when he was a child, the place where he used to be able to step on firmly, now he can only support the forefoot soles, and the heels should be suspended, he tries not to look at the ground two meters below, and passes through the dangerous place smoothly.
The entrance to the cave is covered by tall grass to block the invasion of cold wind and provide warmth for the cave. He pushed aside the dense grass, the entrance of the cave was shorter than a man, he had to keep his head down, and be careful of the phosphorite on the top, it was dark inside, and he watched his feet, because snakes and insects would regard this as an ideal habitat, and he and Kaiming had seen two tightly wound green bamboo snakes in the cave.
He found a safe corner, squatted down and said to himself: "Anyi, Anyi, where is it? I won't play hide and seek now, you come out quickly, don't disappear, don't disappear." ”
At this moment, a pair of red eyes appeared in the depths of the cave, and huge eyeballs stared at him.
The stupid brother was so frightened that he held his head in his hands, and did not dare to say anything, but watched the eyes gradually get closer, and then turned to the entrance of the cave and jumped off the high cliff.
An Yi opened his eyes and found his hands tied behind his back, lying on his back in a dilapidated room. The female corpse squatted on the ground, holding a dagger in her hand, an inch-long sharp blade engraved with an orchid pattern, and by the faint light, she could tell that it was a bronze short blade from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
The female corpse cut the branches on the ground over and over again, and when there were enough wood chips, she drilled the wood to make a fire, and the fire gradually burned and the whole room warmed up. An Yi saw her roasting the feathered hen on the fire, and felt very particular, according to common sense, it should be eaten alive to conform to the personality of the living dead.
"Who are you?" asked the female corpse in a hoarse voice.
An Yi was startled, and replied tremblingly: "I am a modern person, and you will be a thousand years later." ”
The female corpse was stunned, no wonder the lights on the road would automatically turn on, and people were wearing strange clothes, "There are often huge birds flying in the sky, what kind of bird is that?"
"It's not a bird, it's an airplane, a manned vehicle. An Yi wasn't sure she could understand.
The female corpse became silent.
"Excuse me, who are you and why are you buried in the Imperial Curtain?" An Yi tried to ease the relationship between the two with a conversation, and by the way, he learned the secret of the Imperial Curtain, after all, being able to talk to someone a thousand years ago is more valuable than any archaeological information.
The female corpse replied: "My name is Eji, I am a beautiful girl in the palace, after the death of His Majesty the King of Xu, I was buried together with poisoned wine, I don't know why I came back to life?"
"You have been awakened by black spells. An Yi recalled the words recited by the King of Zhou, as well as the spell engraved on the gold necklace, and she was eager to figure out what it was, "Was black mantra popular in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty?"
"I just heard other people's legends, it is an ancient spell, the source can be traced back to the beginning of the opening of heaven and earth, the original chaotic gas, I don't know who recited a spell, the gas began to condense into heaven and earth, heaven and earth finally evolved into all things, the black spell is the basic rule of the operation of all things, it can make things change, the dead resurrected. Eki said.
An Yi listened to her words and fell into deep thought, although she didn't understand it very well, but it should be understood that if a person is everything in the world, the black spell is the cell, the most basic composition, you can't see it, but it affects you all the time.
"Can you let me go? I have no ill will towards you. An Yi felt that this woman was not like a bad person, so she wanted to convince her.
At this time, the child who was lying on the haystack began to cry, and Eki went over and took him carefully in her arms, and coaxed the child as she walked around the house.
"Who is this child, and is he also a martyr?"
Eji glanced at An Yi in the corner, and then replied softly, "He's my child?"
An Yi was stunned, didn't she say that she was a palace maid, so how did she get this child?
Eji guessed that An Yi would feel strange, even as a mother, she was surprised by the birth of the child, "I entered the palace at the age of sixteen, the days in the palace were busy and boring, I got acquainted with a guard, secretly made a private relationship, but His Majesty died, I was selected as one of the palace maids to be martyred, before drinking the poisoned wine, I didn't know that I was pregnant." I stayed in that rotten coffin for a thousand years, about a year ago, I suddenly woke up, but I have been trapped in the dark and narrow space, and my stomach is bulging day by day with time, I don't know how long it has passed, a group of strange people dug me out, the moment the coffin was opened, I found that I was already a pregnant woman who was pregnant in October, those people wrapped me in a transparent cloth, I was so frightened, I kept my eyes closed and pretended to be dead, until the day before yesterday, while the guards were not paying attention, quietly fled to this empty house, and gave birth to a baby boy。 ”
That is, the baby boy was also resurrected by the Black Spell.
"What are you going to do?"
"I want to raise my children. ”
An Yi was silent for a while, shook his head and said, "It is impossible for him to grow up." ”
"Why?" said E-Ji's eyes widened.
"He has no heartbeat, no pulse, no way to grow up, and although the black spell has brought his brain back to work, he is only a living dead who has lost many of his human functions, and he will remain a baby forever. ”
A hoarse cry came from the depths of Eki's throat, and the child in her arms cried along with her.
When her emotions calmed down, An Yi begged her to let go, but Eji shook her head and said, "Have you ever heard of borrowing souls to return to the sun?"
Literally, it means to turn back into a human being with the help of someone else's soul.
"This is impossible, and the soul is not a physical object, so how can it be borrowed?"
The corners of Eji's mouth rose slightly, "The soul is the blood of a person, as long as the blood of the living is taken and injected into the meridians of the dead, the dead will be resurrected." ”
"It's just superstition, it's impossible to do. If you don't like to nag, I can tell you about today's scientific research, even if blood is injected into the body of a dead person, it will not save him, because the heart and lungs that have died are irreversible. An Yi said.
There was no worry on Eji's face, "I can use the black spell to reactivate the child's heart and lungs, as long as I get your blood, it can be like resurrection." ”
"My blood?" An Yi was startled.
"I don't want to hurt anyone, but for the sake of my son, I will do whatever it takes. ”
With that, Eki put the baby in her arms back on the hay and drew the dagger, the blade flashing in the light of the fire.
As Eji approached step by step, An Yi shrank up and rolled to the wall, with no way back. She was forcibly turned over, revealing the arteries on her hand bowl.
She kept shaking her body, and she couldn't fix her wrists, so she picked up the stone on the ground and knocked on the door of her head, and she fainted.
He took a crumbled clay bowl as a blood vessel, and in the light of the fire, the dagger was aimed at the blood vessels on An Yi's wrist.
Then the child cried again, and Eki said to him, "Bear with me, and Mother will revive you." ”
She gritted her teeth and gripped the handle of her knife again. Suddenly, there was a loud noise outside the house, and she stopped, walked to the door with her dagger, and looked around, but nothing happened except the dark woods.
The child scolded very sharply, and when Eji turned around, he saw that the metal alien was already standing in the house, and the child was crying in his hand.
"Give me back the child. ”
Eki rushes over, but is swept to the ground by his arms.
The metal alien looked at the child in his hand, and placed it above the fire.
"Nope. ”
Eki screamed and watched as the monster's claws loosened, and the child fell into the fire, burning like dry wood, and let out a terrible cry. She ran over and picked up her son from the raging fire, which had become a ball of fire, and the fire spread to her, and she picked up the child and walked a few steps, and fell to the ground and burned quietly.
Seeing that the burning man was not moving, the metal alien walked to An Yi's side, untied the rope on his hand, and checked the wound on his scalp, where the stone hit was swollen, but she just fainted, and there was no major problem.
He reached out to remove the hair from her face, but feared that a pair of sharp claws would hurt her skin, and the hand retracted.
