thirty-five

From the day the blood Gu was extinguished, Lao Zhang's life returned to the tranquility of the past. In the first few days of the pen %fun %pavilion www.biquge.info, everyone was still nervous, always guarding against the other party's revenge, but the days passed, and nothing strange happened. Everyone speculated that the main opponent might be the person who raised the blood Gu, and the matter would be over after being attacked and dying in pain. Only Lao Zhang's heart has always been vigilant, and he always feels that this matter is not so simple to end, and the one who can raise blood Gu is definitely not an ordinary Miao person, although he died from the Gu worms he raised, but in the final analysis, it was Lao Zhang who killed the blood Gu and caused the backlash, how could they not record this account on Lao Zhang's head. Despite this, Lao Zhang tried his best to be quiet on the surface, but he was always ready in his heart.

In a blink of an eye, it was the eighth day of the next month, the day of Qiaoqiao's departure. Qiaoqiao's family almost didn't sleep all night, and there were endless feelings of separation, endless sentimentality, and inexhaustible earnest instructions. The two mothers hugged their heads and cried again and again, so that Qiaoqiao's father and brother couldn't help but hide aside and secretly shed tears.

The night passed like this, and the person who came to pick up the coincidental arrived at dawn. Brother Qiaoqiao brought a basin of water and asked her sister to wash away the tears on her face. Qiaoqiaoniang brought a comb and carefully combed her daughter's hair for the last time. Qiaoqiao's father went to cook a bowl of sugar water eggs and fed his daughter one bite at a time. Qiaoqiao shed tears while eating, and strings of tears dripped into the bowl, adding a little bitter taste to the sugar water. The moment of separation has finally arrived, in order not to make Qiaoqiao who traveled far away more sad, Qiaoqiao's father and mother held back the tears in their eyes, tried to squeeze out a little smile, and hugged their daughter out of the house.

Before getting on the horse, Qiaoqiao knelt down on both knees, kowtowed three times, and shouted heartbreakingly: Dad! Mother! Qiao Qiaoniang collapsed in an instant, jumped up and hugged her daughter tightly and cried loudly, refusing to let go even if she died. Xiu Ming and they arrived at this time, looking at the tragic situation of this family's life and death, even if they were hard-hearted, they would be moved. Xiu Ming and Senior Brother couldn't bear to look at it anymore, so they both turned their heads and quietly wiped their tears. After all, Lao Zhang and Xicheng are adults who are used to seeing the joys and sorrows of the world, and they can still restrain their emotions a little, and walk over and whisper to comfort the Qiaoqiao couple who have been crying together.

Although the person who came to pick up Qiaoqiao had always been more respectful and polite, there was an impatient look in his eyes. In particular, one of the middle-aged men with a strong body and a grim face stared at Xiu Ming viciously when Xiu Ming appeared, as if he wanted to pounce on him and bite him. Although he quickly looked away, he didn't know that his expression at that moment had been keenly captured by a person, and that person was Lao Zhang.

Lao Zhang's heart chuckled: How much hatred does it take to have such vicious eyes! Xiu Ming is still a child, and he hasn't offended anyone except for saving cats and exterminating Gu, can he say ......

Thinking of this, Lao Zhang's heart became more and more uneasy, and while comforting Qiaoqiao, he paid attention to that man's every move, for fear that he would do something unfavorable to Xiu Ming. But the man seemed to know that his gaze had revealed his secret, and from then on he hung his head obediently, until Qiaoqiao finally said his final goodbye to his family, and got on the horse with the help of his family, he led his horse over and said goodbye to Qiaoqiao's father and mother politely, and then got on the horse with a few men, surrounded Qiaoqiao's horse in the middle, and walked out of the town together.

Just as he was about to walk out of the town, the man couldn't help but look back at Xiu Ming, although Xiu Ming didn't see his eyes clearly, but there was still a layer of goosebumps on his body for some reason............

For a long time after Qiaoqiao left, Xiuming's mood was relatively low, and he rarely spoke every day except for practicing. Not only Xiuming, but other people were also in a bad mood, so the family no longer talked and laughed as before, and the atmosphere was very dull.

Time is the medicine that heals wounds. As autumn turns to winter, a year is almost passing in a blink of an eye, and the shadow brought by Qiaoqiao's departure has gradually dissipated. But Xiu Ming sometimes still held the sachet sent by Qiaoqiao in a daze, but his mood slowly eased up.

Qiaoqiao has a letter to her family almost every month, saying that she lives well in the village, is respected, and has the best food and clothing in the village, so that her father and mother can rest assured. Qiao Qiaoniang knows that her daughter will not suffer in life, even if she feeds Gu with blood, she has also experienced it, as long as it is not excessive, there is not much damage to the body. So I slowly put my mind at ease and planned to visit my daughter with my husband in the spring of the following year.

Life in the town is peaceful, and everyone's life is more or less uneventful. The thrilling willow demons, black cats, and blood Gu in the past all seem to be gradually moving away from them. It was only occasionally that the master took on some errands such as exorcism, which made Xiu Ming feel that those exciting fighting methods and demon hunting were not his hallucinations, but real existence.

At the end of the year, a big event happened in the family: Abin was getting married! What a great event! The master and apprentice were all excited, busy with Abin's marriage. The last shadow left by Qiaoqiao was also dispersed by Abin's happy event.

Ah Bin and Ah Yuan once said that they planned not to marry for the rest of their lives, but when love came, they couldn't stop it. When I went to a very remote village in the mountains with Xicheng to subdue a terrible ghost who was injured twice, I fell in love with the girl of that family at first sight and fell in love.

It was a very, very remote mountain village, with only a dozen or so households. They have lived here for so long, they have never heard of this place, if it weren't for the people who came to ask Lao Zhang for help, they might never know that there is such a place in the depths of the mountains.

According to the people who came to invite them, the ghost was the daughter-in-law of a family in the village, because her husband made money outside the mountain, he became obsessed with a singer, and when he came back, he insisted on divorce his wife, so in a fit of rage, he hanged himself in red clothes. After he died, he became a ghost, and launched a crazy revenge on the family, not only killing his husband, but also killing his mother-in-law who helped her husband expel him from the house. Both of the deceased were so frightened that they died in a horrible state that caused great panic in the small mountain village.

Although this ghost has no grudge against the others, there is always a ghost haunting the village, and I don't know when it will kill again, who can feel that it has nothing to do with him. Someone in the village had heard of the name of Lao Zhang's master and apprentice in the town to catch demons and subdue demons, and as soon as the villagers summed up, they sent a person down the mountain to ask Lao Zhang for help, begging them to subdue the ghosts and give the villagers a peaceful life.
