Chapter 221: Survival
I haven't had a good night's sleep for days and nights. My head was dizzy, and I saw myself lying on the ground. The candle flame was already burning the clothes.
I rolled over and pressed the fire down from my body.
I was lying on the ground, my eyelids getting heavier. I had a vague feeling in my heart that something was wrong. Because I don't seem to have something important to do.
However, my brain had stopped working.
I saw Mr. Lu leaning against the wall and slowly sliding to the ground. His eyes were closed, and he looked like he was asleep. I was infected by his appearance. I fell asleep.
In my dream, I felt like the woman was coming again. She brought helpers. Pulled me up. Big slaps, chest thumping, pouring cold water.
I was tossed by her for a long time, and then I woke up.
I opened my eyes and saw my parents standing in front of me, both of them tossing me hard.
I still haven't recovered from my lethargy. I opened my mouth and asked, "What's going on?" ”
My mom burst out crying, "Kid." I thought you were dead. ”
I smiled weakly and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine." It's just a sleep, how can you die? ”
I raised my hand and tried to rub my eyes. But when my hand touched my face. It felt like a piece of wood, smashed on the dirt. My hands can't feel my face, and my face can't feel my hands anymore.
I took my hand away. I looked at it myself under the lamp. At this time, I realized that my hands were gray and gray, a color that can only be found in dead people.
I looked at the back of my hand, and there were already corpse spots on it.
I was horrified. Hurriedly picked up his clothes. I remember sleeping on my side on the floor. I looked at my belly. The left is pale, and on the right there are patches of corpse spots.
I caressed my body in a panic. The touch is already faint. I screamed, "What's going on? What's going on? ”
I asked my mom, "What time is it?" How many days is it? ”
My mom said, "It's the seventh day." Didn't Mr. Lu say, "In seven days, let's come back to you?" ”
I grabbed my hair and a handful of it fell out. I asked in a panic, "What about Mr. Lu?" Where did the death go? ”
I heard a tired voice next to me: "I'm here." ”
I rushed over, grabbed him, and shouted, "It's the seventh day, old man, it's the seventh day." "Island Taba.
Mr. Lu stood up slowly, looking like he hadn't woken up: "I know, it's the seventh day." Trapped me, how's it going? ”
I shook his shoulder and said, "the." My death request form has been handed in. Now the time has come. Hades is coming to fetch men. ”
Mr. Lu suddenly had a wit. It's like I've finally reacted. He shouted anxiously, "The seventh day? Why didn't anyone call me? ”
I shouted, "We're both asleep, what's it called?" Hurry up and figure out a way to withdraw the please death form. ”
Mr. Lu patted his head and said, "Yes, yes, that's the truth." Pen, ink, paper, inkstone. Where have they gone? ”
My dad helped him and began to write and draw on the yellow paper with a splash of ink.
I nervously looked at the clock on the wall, and it was already half past eleven. And Mr. Lu rubbed his sleepy eyes and began to chant again.
I stomped my foot anxiously: "Can you hurry up?" ”
Mr. Lu scratched his head and said, "Don't rush me, this kind of thing can't be sloppy." ”
My mom asked me, "What happened to the person who was going to steal your longevity?" Ran away? ”
I nodded and said, "Run away." She is now seriously injured and does not have much to live. ”
My mother seemed to be a little relieved, and said: "This kind of person hurts nature and reason, and he deserves this fate." Then, she said with some reluctance: "If she reforms, you can let her go once, and it's okay for her to be a person again." ”
My dad said categorically: "You are letting the tiger go back to the mountain, the kindness of a woman." How could such a person let her go? If you let her go today, she will be able to bite you tomorrow. ”
My mom whispered, "Didn't I say that?" If she's willing to mend her ways, let her go. ”
My eyes were fixed on the clock on the wall, and I didn't hear the argument between the two elders.
Mr. Lu suddenly lifted the yellow paper from the table. The yellow paper made a crunch sound. Mr. Lu said happily: "It's done." Let's go. ”
I urged, "What about paper money?" What about incense candles? ”
Mr. Lu held the yellow paper in one hand and pulled me in the other: "What more paper money?" It's important to save your life, so hurry up and burn the yellow paper. ”
Mr. Lu and I ran until we stumbled and panted to the front of the Land Temple.
This time, Mr. Lu knelt down directly. shouted loudly: "Survive, survive, survive......"
He shouted urgently, and he was all terrified. I felt like he wasn't begging for survival, but for mercy.
But I know that he screamed so low to save my life. So I was very moved in my heart.
I scrambled to light the match, and then began to burn the yellow paper. The fire was originally very strong, but when it was halfway through, it suddenly dimmed.
The original yellow fireworks turned green, fluttering, as if they were about to be extinguished.
Mr. Lu shouted, "Oh no, they're coming." ”
At the same time, I felt a cold aura coming through my back.
Mr. Lu instructed me, and he said loudly, "No matter what, burn this piece of paper." Do you hear that? ”
I nodded.
Then, Mr. Lu jumped up violently. And he went into the darkness beside him.
I heard a terrified scream coming from there. Then, Mr. Lu muttered.
I don't know what happened to him or if he's dead. All I know is if this piece of paper can't burn out. I'm going to die first today.
I lit the matches one by one. Then I started burning that yellow paper. The yellow paper becomes like an iron plate, making it difficult to burn.
I took my clothes off my body. Put on fire with a match. Then I put the yellow paper in it. The flames engulfed the yellow paper. It slowly curled, blackened, and burned to ashes.
When I was done, I breathed a sigh of relief. Exhausted, he fell to the ground.
I don't know how long it took. I heard footsteps in the darkness. I looked over there in panic. I saw Mr. Lu come out.
He has no scars on his body, and even his clothes are intact. But he looked depressed, as if he was dying.
The way he looked scared me. I called out nervously, "Mr. Lu? ”
Mr. Lu snorted. Then he pounced and knelt at the door of the Land Temple.
His eyes kept straight. It seems to be a bit demented.
I shook his shoulder and said, "Are you alright?" ”
Mr. Lu shook his head and said, "It's okay." "But when I look at him, it's clear that something is wrong.
Mr. Lu knelt in the night wind for a while, then looked at me again and said, "Don't worry, you're fine." They saw the words on the yellow paper and had gone back. You took the initiative to ask for death, as long as you regret it at the last minute, they will not embarrass you. ”
I looked at him nervously, "Did you see them?" ”
Mr. Lu was silent for a moment, then nodded: "I saw them." Someone from Hades. ”
I asked, "Are they, the same as the legend?" ”
Mr. Lu's body trembled violently, as if he was terrified.
He looked at me and said, "Zhao Mang, I guarantee you to pass the test of the Double Ninth Festival." Can you do me a favor? ”
I nervously asked, "What do you want me to do for you?" ”
Mr. Lu said, "Help me save people." Save my Master. ”
I thought for a moment and asked, "Just now, did you see your master?" ”
Mr. Lu shook his head: "I only saw one thing that belonged to him. And did not see him personally. When he begged for death, he disappeared. We searched for many years, but we couldn't find him. But when he was leaving, he once said that if there is such a thing, it means that there is room for life. ”
Mr. Lu sighed and said, "I've been looking for him for so many years, and I'm already desperate. But when I saw that kind of thing, my dead heart came alive again. ”
I asked, "What the hell is that thing?" ”
Mr. Lu said: "Let's wait until you pass the test." Then, he shuddered, and said with palpitations: "Because those two people just now are really terrible." We can't afford to mess with it yet. ”
