Chapter 16: Accelerated Aging
Could it be that the Red Girl? I rubbed my eyes, the shadow swayed on the wall, how could it be the Red Girl? Maybe there's some mechanism here. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
I held the candle and looked carefully to see if it was possible that something was projected on the wall, and when I looked closely, there was something hanging from the ceiling, it was a very thin red rope, and at the end of the red rope was a puppet, and it shook there as soon as the air flowed. I ripped off the puppet, held it in my hand, and looked at it carefully in the light of the candle, the puppet was dressed exactly like the red girl described by Young Master Chen, like a handicraft. This should be a puppet carved by Young Master Chen!
At this moment, there was a slight sparse sound, very low, like the tinkling of spring water, and like a breeze blowing through the leaves, and it was not easy to hear clearly. Listening carefully, I finally heard a little eyebrows, how could it be so poetic, it was a low cry, like a woman sobbing.
I was overwhelmed by the suddenness of the voice, and there was no one else in the room but me, where did the sound come from?
I opened my eyes wide and searched around, but there was no one in my hand, and then the candle I was holding in my hand suddenly went out, and the surroundings were suddenly plunged into darkness, I took out a match from my bosom, wiped it a few times, and only a little spark flashed, but it could not be lit.
I felt that there was something around me, and I arched my hand and said: "Who is Your Excellency, Ming people don't do dark things, and they have the ability to show up." The voice disappeared for a moment, then began to whimper again, and I stopped writing: "What the hell are you from?" Don't pretend to be a ghost! ”
A candle suddenly lit up not far away, and when I looked in that direction, it turned out that a candle on the dresser had been lit, and it was a red candle, only half of which remained.
There was a mirror on the dresser, and I walked towards it, and there was a figure in the mirror, dressed in red and wearing a red hijab, very dignified. I looked in the mirror, and it was supposed to be the Red Girl.
The red girl didn't speak, she kept combing in the mirror, but she didn't remove the red hijab, I think it's a bit weird, combing her hair doesn't take off the red hijab, what does this mean? I touched the mirror, it was a real mirror, I looked into the mirror, and saw only the figure of the red girl, but not my shadow.
I'm a little wondering, could it be that this red girl is playing tricks with us, playing hide and seek? Suddenly, the red girl came out of the mirror, she took off her hijab, only to hear the red girl say, "Young Master Chen, why are you here?" ”
Her sentence contains too much information, how can she speak? Isn't she already dead?
Since she calls me Young Master Chen, she should have regarded me as Young Master Chen, why can't she tell the difference between me and Young Master Chen? My face was pale, and if I had removed the mask, my real face would have been even more ugly.
I understand that the red girl thinks of herself as Young Master Chen, what kind of feelings does the red girl have for Young Master Chen, I don't understand, how to take this remark? I thought for a moment, and then said, "Red girl, why did you show up here?" The red girl said, "I have been waiting here for five years, and I finally see you again." ”
Listening to the tone of the red girl, she seemed to want to see Young Master Chen, which should show that the red girl has true love for Young Master Chen. I said, "yes, we're finally meeting again." "I immediately felt that something was not right, the red girl had already disappeared in the cave of Daxing'anling, I saw it with my own eyes, why did she appear here again? I was a little confused, could it be that the red girl was lying to Young Master Chen at that time? Then I said, "I remember you weren't..."
The red girl said: "People have three souls and seven souls, and my two souls and seven souls have disappeared in the cave of Daxinganling, and I only have one soul left." ”
I was a little silly, and she set her eyes on me. I sorted out the whole process according to my previous narrative, at that time, the two souls and seven spirits of the red girl had disappeared, and the current red girl didn't know that the real Young Master Chen was actually dead.
I took advantage of my identity as Young Master Chen to ask some of the red girl's past experiences.
The red girl said, "This is a long story, and I will tell you about it slowly." She recounted her past, which was embarrassing.
The ancestor of the red girl, Granny Hong, was originally a servant girl by Qin Shi Huang's side, Qin Shi Huang's health deteriorated, and she originally thought that after Qin Shi Huang died, she would be able to return to her hometown, but Qin Shi Huang made a shocking decision.
Qin Shi Huang felt that this country was not easy to come by, if it could not be enjoyed forever, then what was the meaning of this country? He sent people to the East China Sea to find the elixir, wanting to live forever, but he didn't succeed, and he gradually felt that the method of immortality was difficult to find. He prepared two paths for himself, one was to secretly send someone to seek medical advice, and the second was to ascend to immortality after death if he couldn't find the immortal medicine.
He called Zhao Gao over and asked him to give advice, Zhao Gao was a treacherous villain, and at this time he didn't forget to pat Qin Shihuang's ass: "Your Majesty has finally laid down the country, how can you just put it down like this, the minister must have a way to let Your Majesty enjoy the country forever." When Qin Shi Huang heard that there was a play, he asked him what to do?
Zhao Gao said: "I found a Jianghu warlock to find the dragon vein for His Majesty, after several years of searching, the excellent feng shui treasure is located near Lishan Mountain, which can not only bless His Majesty's descendants with smooth affairs, but also allow His Majesty to ascend to immortal after death." ”
Qin Shi Huang immediately ordered people to start building a mausoleum in Lishan. Once the ancient emperors built mausoleums, they would build a lot of construction and find someone to accompany the burial, and the red mother-in-law thought that Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries, which may be different from the previous imperial system, but she didn't expect the result to be no different from before. Once there is such a thing as death, the king has no principles left, and the only thought is to enjoy the country forever.
When Granny Hong heard about the funeral, she was at a loss. She wanted to escape, but she was still captured by Qin Shi Huang, and all kinds of criminal laws were used, beating her all over her body, and finally being used for burial.
They were sealed in a secret room in the tomb of Qin Shi Huang by a group of officers and soldiers, and she spent seven days and seven nights in it, exhausted and weak, and finally fainted. Later, she didn't know how she survived, and she didn't know how she came out, this past story of the red mother-in-law did not pass down, and later evaded the pursuit of officers and soldiers, survived in a very remote place, and gave birth to children, until the generation of the red girl.
I asked, "Red girl, these are the experiences of your ancestors, how do you know about them?" ”
"These are things that have been passed down from generation to generation in our family. ”
When I listened to her story, I thought it was very evil, her ancestors were characters more than 2,000 years ago, and if the generation of 25 years is 25 years, the red girl should be in her 80s.
The red girl often had a dream in which she dreamed that Granny Hong told her that when she reached her generation, she must go to the tomb of Qin Shi Huang to lift the spell laid by the warlocks, otherwise her generation would not be able to continue to reproduce.
