Chapter 41: Punishment and Gu
"If you want to unlock the ghost eye three corpse Gu on your body, you can, just marry my granddaughter, as long as you marry my granddaughter, you are my grandson-in-law, and I will naturally give you the antidote to the Gu poison. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info”
The old man snorted coldly, as if he was very dissatisfied with my ignorance.
Li Zhu'er, who was standing on the side, looked at us nervously.
On the other hand, Peng Jiahe looked at Li Zhuer and the old lady, with an angry face, if it wasn't for the river on the side to pull it, he would have rushed out a long time ago.
For the old man's persistence and stubbornness, I was very helpless and annoyed, but I had to ask for help, I had to whisper: "Old man, the purpose of coming here is just to unravel the ghost eye three corpse Gu on my body, if you can unravel it, and if you are willing, please be merciful to the old man and help me untie it, I will definitely thank you." ”
Immediately, I changed my tone again: "But for the sake of this matter, if you rashly marry your granddaughter, this is not only irresponsible to myself, but also irresponsible to your granddaughter, which is unfair to both of us." ”
Hearing me say this, the old man's face remained unchanged, but the atmosphere around him became inexplicably cold.
"Isn't my granddaughter pretty?" The old man asked coldly.
I looked at Li Zhu'er, who was standing on the side with a delicate appearance, a slender figure, a gentle temperament, and a flushed face, no matter whether the old man could see it or not, he shook his head: "Your granddaughter is very beautiful!" ”
"My granddaughter is of bad character?"
I shook my head as I remembered the scene where Li Zhu'er begged the doctor to save his brother.
"No, your granddaughter's character is good!"
"You're married?"
I paused, then shook my head: "I'm still single!" ”
The old man slammed the table and said sharply, "That's if you want to die!" ”
I sighed, "I haven't lived enough!" ”
"Good good ......"
Hearing my answer, the old man suddenly burst out laughing, and his voice was full of violence: "How long do you think you can live?" Your ghost uncle should have told you before you came, to tell you the truth, if you don't marry my granddaughter, you will wait for death! ”
At this time, Peng Jiahe, who had been staying aside, couldn't hold back any longer, stood up all of a sudden, pointed at the old man and scolded: "What's going on with you old woman, it's already very clear, if you don't marry, you don't marry, if you want to marry your granddaughter, there are many people on the street, you just find one......
In anger, Peng Jiahe couldn't help but be a little impulsive, and his words were out of proportion.
"Noisy ......"
The old man suddenly screamed, grabbed the jet-black crutch on the side, and waved it suddenly, instantly spraying out a black mist from the crutch, and before we could react, the black mist shot directly on Peng Jiahe's body.
Peng Jiahe stiffened, his eyes widened, and then he fell to the ground with a hard thud, and the black mist instantly enveloped Peng Jiahe's whole body.
"Ah, it's so itchy, I can't stand it, it's so itchy......"
Peng Jiahe's exposed skin appeared black spots in an instant, and the black spots turned red and larger at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then, Peng Jiahe let out a terrible scream, his hands on his face and arms, and instantly grabbed terrifying blood marks.
"Grandma, don't do it!"
Li Zhu'er immediately pleaded bitterly and knelt directly on the ground.
I hugged Peng Jiahe, only to feel that the red spots on her body were increasing at a speed visible to the naked eye, and there were more and more places on Peng Jiahe's body that were scratched by her.
However, at this time, Peng Jiahe's whole body strength was terrifying, and I couldn't catch him at all.
"Jiang Lai, help!"
I shouted at Jiang Lai, Jiang Lai reacted immediately, grabbed Peng Jiahe's hands and body, and with the joint efforts of the two of us, he was able to grab Peng Jiahe's writhing body.
"Let go of me, let me scratch, don't catch me, it's so ......"
Peng Jiahe kept howling and writhing, even if the two of us worked together, Peng Jiahe still showed signs of breaking free at any time.
Seeing Peng Jiahe's painful appearance, I immediately pleaded with the old man: "Old man, Jiahe didn't mean to offend you, please have a lot of them, spare her......"
The old man's face did not move at all, he couldn't see the slightest expression, his ears were deaf to Peng Jiahe's terrible scream, and a sneer slowly appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"I don't know how to be respectful and humble, my words and deeds are out of shape, this is a small punishment!"
I just wanted to continue to plead, but the old man suddenly waved his crutches, and a white mist shot out, covering Peng Jiahe's body.
Peng Jiahe's writhing stopped suddenly, his hands were no longer around, and the red spots on his body disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Peng Jiahe was lying on the ground panting violently, his whole body was covered in cold sweat, and his frightened eyes were full of fear for the old man.
At this time, the old man seemed to have no interest in talking, looked at me with closed eyes, and his voice was hoarse and cold: "Your life is your own, have you thought clearly?" ”
"Are you really not going to marry my granddaughter?"
When I said this, the old man's eyes suddenly opened, and I instantly felt the tremor and uneasiness of my soul as I looked at the hole in the black hole.
My heart trembled violently, and my soul was extremely depressed, I knew that if I refused again this time, I was afraid that I would lose this chance to live, but at this moment, I endured it and slowly shook my head with difficulty: "Old man, I still respect my own choice." ”
I still have hope in my heart, maybe there is someone else besides this old man who can unlock the Ghost Eye Three Corpse Gu on my body.
Li Zhu'er, who was kneeling on the ground, turned pale in an instant, and her head hung low.
I glanced at Li Zhu'er one by one, and I could only sigh in my heart.
"Hmph, that's good!"
The old man snorted coldly, walked towards the back room on crutches, and was so angry that he didn't even take the white horse jade plate on the table.
After the old man left, the tense and depressing atmosphere eased a little, and it was me and Li Zhu'er, a little embarrassed.
After a moment of silence, Li Zhu'er glanced at Peng Jiahe, and then smiled at us: "Don't worry, she's fine, although Grandma punished him, she didn't hurt her, and the scars on her body will disappear as long as she doesn't scratch anymore." ”
Li Zhu'er breathed a sigh of relief at her words, and I smiled apologetically at her, and she smiled at me as if nothing happened.
I picked up the white horse jade plaque on the table and put it in my pocket, this is the key to my life, how can I lose it easily.
I was even thinking that maybe the old man left it on purpose, I didn't agree to her request, and she didn't help me solve the Gu poison, so she left this jade plaque.
After Peng Jiahe recovered a little, Li Zhuer took us to the guest room, brought us some dinner, and then let us rest early.
According to the agreement, she will take us tomorrow to look for the vanished White Horse Village, and before leaving, she solemnly instructed us not to wander around the village at night.
We didn't care, so we nodded.
To be honest, we were exhausted by the twists and turns of the day today, and even if Li Zhu'er didn't say such a thing, we didn't plan to wander around the village.
The guest room is an antique room, the carved wooden bed is wide and comfortable, the checked wooden window is simple and has a strong antique style, the green gauze tent, the wooden coffee table, everything makes me have an illusion, as if I am in the Jiangnan water town.
I, Jiang Lai, and Peng Jiahe each have one, and outside the guest room, there is a small courtyard with a plane tree.
In the evening, we went to bed early because we were each tired.
But at about ten o'clock, a small strange figure suddenly flashed in the small dark courtyard.
The shadow paused in front of the courtyard for a few seconds, then came to my door.
"Bang ......"
In the darkness, there was a slight knock on the door.
