Chapter 17: Tracing Miao Village
The train has been running for more than three days, and there are still a few hours to go to the Qianhu Miao Village in Xijiang, and the scenery outside is constantly changing. Looking out the car window, the mountains were towering, some of which seemed to have penetrated into the clouds, and the sky was blue and clear without a trace of clouds. The fields were full of peasants toiling, and it seemed that they could faintly hear their singing.......
"Nie Yu, we're about to arrive, you should be happy this time, we can save your little sister by finding the bracelet, be happy and don't keep thinking about those unhappy things." Zhao Yu'er looked at me and continued to comfort, I smiled at her and looked at Zhao Lili opposite, maybe she can help me find Luo Hao, but I am not familiar with her, how to speak?
"That's right, Nie Yu, along the way, in addition to seeing the scenery, you still found the person named Luo Hao, I will help you, I can find the address above, you can rest assured, but I want to invite you to my house as a guest, the people in our Miao Village are very hospitable, if you don't go, it will be rude ......." Zhao Lili looked at Wu Shirong as she spoke, and Wu Shirong always stared at her up and down.
"Zhao Lili, can your breeze and smoke relieve the curse on my little sister? Since they are all sober-minded, will it be useful? "My heart beat faster and I seemed to find the answer I was looking for right away.
"I heard you talk about your little sister's symptoms, but it's absolutely different, the worm Gu in our Miao Village can only make people unconscious for a short time, and it definitely won't last that long, unless it's ......" Zhao Lili stopped talking.
"Unless it's something, you're talking?" I'm in a bit of a hurry.
"Unless it's the Golden Cicada Gu of the King of Hundred Gus, as long as you are under this kind of Gu, you will be unconscious, and even obey people's orders, and lose yourself like the walking dead, but our Miao Jiang's Gu are all insect Gu, and the curse is not necessarily only the Worm Gu curse, it may also be a spell or fate or something else, I don't know much about it." Zhao Lili looked at Zhao Yuer after speaking.
"Senior sister, we are all surnamed Zhao, we must take care of it in the future!" Zhao Yuer looked at Zhao Lili and stretched out her hand, and they all smiled in unison.
It didn't take long for the train to finally stop, and we got off one after another, and followed Zhao Lili to the Miao Village after a while. The thousand Miao villages in Xijiang really live up to its name. The girls walked down the street in groups, with large silver crowns on their heads, and two long, sharp horns reaching out to the sky. Around the neck is a silver row necklace, and the whole body blue skirt has a few red stripes.
"Miao Village Inn, Nie Yu, look, we'll live here today!" Zhao Yuer grabbed my arm,
As she pointed out, I looked up. It is a two-story wooden structure with a masonry structure on the ground floor and wooden stilts on the upper two floors. The first floor seems to be a granary and various tools, and the second floor is where people live. At the top of the second floor are neat gray tiles that slope down the ridge at a forty-five degree angle. The surroundings are very clean, with green flowers and trees, and there is no dust.
"Zhao Yu'er, let's be here today, settle down and go to Zhao Lili's house tomorrow, what do you say Wu Shirong?" I also want to go to Zhao Lili's house to have a look, if Waiyi can find a way to solve the Gu, but now it's almost dark, it's better to stay.
"Okay, it's okay for you to be here today, I'll go home and tell my parents that you're here, ask them to prepare food and drinks, and come to you tomorrow!" After speaking, Zhao Lili took the backpack from Wu Shirong and left.
After dinner, it was already dark at night, and our room was on the second floor of the inn, and it seemed that there were a few other tourists who lived opposite us. At night, the air in Miao Village is particularly fresh, and every breath is clear and thorough, which is really comfortable. In order to save money, the three of us rented a suite, the suite is two rooms, the big room is me and Wu Shirong, the small room is Zhao Yuer, after washing, I dragged my tired body to the quilt and fell asleep.
"Help! Help, Nie Yu, Wu Shirong! Zhao Yuer desperately shouted for help, and Wu Shirong and I hurriedly ran to her house.
"It's a snake! A black snake crawled onto my bed, and it was cool to me when I touched it, and it got under the bed.
I lay on the ground and looked, there was really a big black snake more than one meter long coiled on the ground at the head of the bed, I quickly took a wooden stick and knocked it out and still went downstairs. Wu Shirong and I checked several more times and were sure that there were no other snakes in the house, but then the two of us were frightened by Zhao Yuer. When she woke up scared by the snake, she was wearing nothing but underwear and panties, ...... anything else. Wu Shirong and I stayed for a few seconds and hurriedly walked out, Zhao Yuer hurriedly picked up the quilt and hugged it to his chest, his face was scared and ......ashamed.
"Nie Yu, I'm afraid, I don't dare to sleep, I'll sleep in your house!" Within a few minutes, Zhao Yuer actually got dressed and ran to my and Wu Shirong's house, Wu Shirong saw her come in, smiled at me, and hurriedly went to Zhao Yuer's house.
"Why are you so daring, hasn't the snake already thrown down? I'm sleepy, Miss Daughter, go to sleep! "I was so sleepy that I couldn't open my eyes and fell asleep as soon as I turned over, Zhao Yuer slept in Wu Shirong's bed.
At this time, I heard the noise on the school playground again, and my heart suddenly sobered up, the female ghost must be here. Sure enough, after a while, I couldn't move again, opened my eyes, and An Lingxin sat at the head of my bed again.
"Husband, you must be careful in the Miao Village where you are poisoning Gu everywhere, there may not be anything you want here, let's go back!" An Lingxin's green long skirt and bewitching figure were revealed in front of my eyes, but this time she seemed to frown to set off her beauty more completely, and finally saw her expression.
"Go back? We came here after such a big Zhou Zhang, what are you going back to do now, and besides, who are you, a female ghost? Do you want me to be your stand-in or curse me, did you hurt my little sister? My series of questions made An Lingxin shake his head.
"Husband, you are so self-conscious, remember to think about me with all your attention when you are in danger, I will come out to help you......" A burst of white smoke drifted through An Ling's heart and disappeared.
"Ahh Help, how did I get back to my room! It was Zhao Yu'er's voice, and I opened my eyes and looked at the already bright outside.
When I opened my eyes, Wu Shirong was back in my room, but Zhao Yuer was in the room at the beginning, it was really inexplicable, the three of us woke up, and no one could tell what was going on. Only I know in my heart that no one seems to be able to do this except the female ghost, is she really my wife?
The three of us had breakfast in despair, yesterday's events were so weird, Zhao Yuer and Wu Shirong sat there stunned and didn't speak.
"Wu Shirong, hurry up and bring the mailed receipt, let's see where Luo Hao's address is, and go find him now!" As soon as I said this, they both were taken aback.
"It's written on Izumo Village, and the recipient is Luo Hao, in an inn in Izumo Village, let's go now!" After Wu Shirong finished speaking, we went down to the second floor of the inn together.
Qianhu Miao Village is very special, the reason why it is called Qianhu Miao Village is because each Miao Village is divided according to the power of the family, and different families gradually form their own territory through continuous reproduction, so each Miao Village has a different name, and this Izumo Village is one of them. There are many Miao villages here, where can we find it, and when I was sad, Zhao Lili came to us.
"Don't worry, with me, the Izumo Village you said is in the back mountain of our village, I'll take you there now." Zhao Lili changed into the national costume of their hometown, and the three of us looked her up and down, and her face turned red.
"What? Don't know me anymore? Is my outfit the traditional costume here? Zhao Lili said and spun around in place.
"It's good-looking, the clothes are good-looking, and your soul is not beautiful, you are so enthusiastic to help us, and when we find Luo Hao, we will definitely invite you to dinner." The three of us followed Zhao Lili towards Izumo Village.
When she arrived at Izumo Village, Zhao Lili found the inn and asked if there was really a name named Luo Hao on the register, but the one named Luo Hao hadn't come back for a few nights, and the things were still in the house.
"What to do? Nie Yu? Are we waiting here, according to the rules of Miao Village, we can't just go into the inn to check, if he comes back suddenly, we can go up and ask him directly.
"Well, we'll wait here, and if he comes back, we'll go up and block him in the house." After discussing it, we sat in the tea room on the first floor of the inn and drank tea while waiting for this damn Luo Hao.
About six o'clock in the evening, a man came back outside, this man wore a sun hat, a pair of glasses, an outdated sportswear, dirty and a big leather boot, as if he had just come out of the mountain, he looked at the four of us to the inn bar and got toiletries and went straight up. Seeing him walk away, Zhao Yuer hurriedly walked to the bar with Zhao Lili and asked.
"Hello grandma, is that person Luo Hao?" Zhao Lili asked in local dialect, but I didn't understand a word.
"Yes, are you his friends? Or is there something else? "Grandma looks like she is in her eighties, hunched over but her eyes are very energetic.
"Yes, he is our friend, we have something to ask him, grandma, we will go up, you don't have to lead the way and tell us his house number." After that, the four of us went up to the second floor.
The second floor of this Izumo Village Inn is very large and can have hundreds of square meters, which is as large as a luxury hotel in Haicheng, but all the buildings are wooden structures. After a while, we arrived at the door of Luo Hao's room, and I gently pushed the door, and the door was tightly locked.
"Don't move, look at me!" After Zhao Lili finished speaking, she took out a small cloth doll, the doll was sewn from cloth, and there was a white paper on it, on which she wrote Luo Hao's name.
"What are you doing here?" The three of us asked her in unison.
"It's called a puppet, just write the name of the person you hate on it to control him, if you want to make him hurt, prick him with a silver needle, so he can listen to you!" After Zhao Lili finished speaking, I was a little surprised, I used to learn the spell of exorcism from the second uncle, and there were control spells in this area on the "Nine Imperial Divine Strategies", but they are all for ghosts and demons, it seems that this kind of disgusting puppet against the living makes up for the gap in my spell type, I must study hard with Zhao Lili.
