Chapter 11: A Strange Village

Jiang Xiu collected the blood and said that it was already late, and he would wait for tomorrow morning to buy paper money. I lay on the bed and looked at the moonlight outside the window, expecting to see the woman in the white dress come back and listen to my explanation, but I couldn't sleep until dawn and didn't see her come back.

Jiang Xiu slept very comfortably, he went to buy paper money early in the morning, moistened it with blood, and then took me to the upper floor of the house opposite the old house.

When I came up, I saw my parents lying in the coffin. Jiang Xiu began to burn paper money, and I asked worriedly whether it would be successful or not, and he said that after burning, if the two of them woke up, it would be done. If the two don't wake up, it won't work.

The paper money burns and the flame is green, which I think is very evil and terrifying.

I looked at the raging flames, and opened my mouth to ask Jiang Xiu, "How did Jiang Xue feel when these paper money were burned?" ”

"Why are you still thinking about that woman, this is obviously to make Meise stunned......" Jiang Xiu said triumphantly, "After the living paper money is burned, the closer she gets to here, the more painful it becomes, and only those who flee far away will not feel pain." We're driving her away now, what are you panicking about? ”

I shook my head and stared blankly at the flames, my mind was full of yesterday's events, and I felt uncomfortable when I thought of Jiang Xue's expression.

When all the paper money was burned, I looked directly into my parents' eyes, only to see their eyelids move, and I was immediately relieved.

The two of them woke up in a daze, and the first thing they did was to say that they were hungry, so I hurriedly took them to a restaurant at the foot of the mountain to sit in a private room and have a good meal. My dad was gobbling up his meal, and he asked in wonder if he was hopeless, how could he wake up now.

Jiang Xiu triumphantly told the matter again, and just as he was boasting that he had used a trick to get the living ghost food, I said coldly: "If it weren't for Jiang Xue, we would all die." ”

Hearing this, they all stopped eating and looked at me with wide eyes and shock, while I continued: "When I first met Shi Rongrong, it was Jiang Xue who came out to save me; And then that weird whip was also taught by Jiang Xue to make it, otherwise I would not be qualified to negotiate conditions with Shi Rongrong; After that, the living paper money was also burned with Jiang Xue's soul. No matter what Uncle Jiang said, if Jiang Xue hadn't been willing to pick up the scissors at that time, he wouldn't have gotten the living paper money. ”

"You're sick!"

My dad slammed the dishes and chopsticks hard, looked at me angrily, and asked me to apologize to Jiang Xiu. But I didn't listen, I just shook my head vigorously: "For more than ten years, you have been worried that Jiang Xue will take me away, and I didn't know anything at first, but now I also know the ins and outs, and I feel that some things are wrong." I'm ashamed of Jiang Xue, I want to find her and explain things clearly. ”

Jiang Xiu put down his chopsticks, he lit a cigarette he had just bought from the store, and smiled disdainfully: "I'm afraid that you won't even be able to die when the time comes." ”

"I can't apologize, I have to thank you, I'm going to find Jiang Xue." I looked at my parents and said very seriously.

They all looked at me dumbfounded, and my mother burst into tears. I told my mother that you should not cry, and my son will not be able to come back as soon as he goes.

My dad didn't say anything, just looked at the food on the table. Jiang Xiu asked me at this time: "You want to find her, so where do you go to find her?" ”

I said that I know, if you go east, you can find Jiang Xue.

Jiang Xiu was immediately stunned, and he said in disbelief: "How do you know? ”

"I've been to see Jiang Xue's grave, it's blocked all around, only one is a valley, and now that I think about it, the valley is exactly in the east. Before you asked me to run, you asked me to run all the way to the west, I can guess that the west should be Jiang Xue's dead end, and she can only go east. I analyzed.

Jiang Xiu was silent, and then said to my father, your son has a good head.

Mom cried even harder, and Dad told her not to cry, and he sighed and said, "If you really want to go to her, a big living person, we can't stop her." Now you want to reassure me and your mother. Hearing you say that, we owe her a lot, just look for it, and it's good to come back safely......"

My dad's eyes turned red as he spoke, and he stopped talking. I stood up, bowed to them, and said that I didn't want to be too late, otherwise I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to catch up with Jiang Xue.

After eating, I took the dry tobacco and my bank card at home, and then left the village. The mountain behind my house is not high, and it is a small town beyond the mountain, and I think Jiang Xue will run to that town. Even if she ...... Even if she is not alive, she probably doesn't want to stay alone in the mountains.

Although Jiang Xiu scolded me, he had a good relationship with my parents, and he naturally thought about me in his heart. Before I went out, he told me, "You are not looking for a living person, and you are not looking for a place where a living person would drill on weekdays." When you get to the next town, you can find one place and three places. What you can find is an abnormal place, pay more attention to strange things, and the dead like to go to the dead people. But if you see a woman with her hair on a tree, run away; When you see your nails in the bowl, you want to run; When walking at night, there is a cool breeze blowing on the back of the head, so you have to run slowly and don't disturb the things behind. ”

I went to the nearest town first, and then I went to the village in the next town.

When I came to the village, the first thing I did was to wander around to see if there was anything out of the ordinary. And the vegetable fields, the fields, the places where people need to go, I didn't go.

I didn't see any strange situations along the way, and just as I was about to walk out of the West Village, the situation changed.

On a quiet street in the West Village, there was a family holding a funeral, which was supposed to be a normal thing, but when I was about to pass by, my left leg suddenly shook, and when I passed by, I didn't feel it in my leg anymore.

I walked back in confusion, and my left leg shook again, and then I was surprised to touch my hand into my left leg pocket, and I just touched a slippery cloth, and suddenly I blushed and my heart beat again. It turns out that Jiang Xue's belly pocket is still in my pocket, but this is really weird, how can the belly pocket suddenly react when I walk past this house?

I looked inside the house, and it was a girl who had died. It struck me as weird, because the girl was quite young. In our area, if a young or middle-aged person dies of illness or an accident, there is no funeral. Because this is very unlucky, the death is not beautiful, and everyone is afraid that the funeral scenery will disturb the deceased.

But this family is unusual, and they even hold a funeral for the girl. I thought about it, and thought that I could probe it, so I went over and asked the owner of the house if he wanted to recite more scriptures, and just give fifty yuan for dinner.

In the mountain villages in our area, there are many people who can recite the scriptures, everyone believes in Buddhism on weekdays, almost every household has Buddhist scriptures, and they will recite the scriptures when they have nothing to do, because there were no TV antennas before, so they could only chant the scriptures and play cards to pass the time.

The master was a middle-aged man, and when he heard that I was going to recite the scriptures, he actually looked happy and said, "Okay, good, the more you chant the better, the more the better......"

I frowned, what does this mean, is it about pomp?

At this time, I looked at the coffin suspiciously, and my face suddenly changed.

The three incense sticks in front of the coffin were black, of different lengths, and they were obviously extinguished after not burning for a while.

Even the people in the mountains know what it means......

At this time, the belly pocket in my pocket was still shaking, as if it was going to rip me away. Only then did I realize that the belly pocket didn't want me to stay and see, but wanted me to leave quickly.

I knew I couldn't get into trouble, so I quickly got up and left, and the owner called me from behind, but I didn't look back. The further down I went, the colder I became, because on the side of the road at the exit of the village, there were two rows of bowls neatly placed, each with half a bowl of water.

The belly pocket shook more and more, and I wanted to tear me away quickly, and I wondered in my heart, what the hell is wrong with this village?

I didn't dare to stay long, so I hurriedly left the village. But when I went to the station, I found that there were several bowls in the small station, and the bus didn't run at all. Now I panicked, because it was more than ten miles away from the next village, and if I walked, I was afraid that I would have to sleep in the wilderness tonight, and there were wolves in our wilderness.

So tonight...... It is necessary to stay in this village.
