Chapter 18: Horror followed by Shock
"Don't! No! Zheng Pei suddenly woke up, and in his dream, Boss Lin's dagger stabbed straight into his eyes! Zheng Pei sat on the bamboo bed in shock, he looked around blankly, and after a long time of calm and rapid breathing, he recognized that he was still in the village hut. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Zheng Pei was very thirsty, and his head was dizzy. He only remembered that he had gone to the ceremony of opening the heavens, that he remembered the demonic Boss Lin and his glittering dagger, and other than that, he didn't remember anything else.
It was already the early hours of the next day. Zheng Pei wiped the sweat from his forehead, got out of bed and walked to the table, picked up the bamboo tube on the table and drank like a cow. The cold mountain spring water gradually drove away the heat and nausea in his body, Zheng Pei looked around, and then found that Granny Ye was not in the house.
Zheng Pei got dressed and walked outside, only to find that the village, hidden in the mist of the early morning, had regained the mystery he had when he first arrived. I don't know if Zheng Pei got up too early or for some other reason, the doors of every house are closed, and there is no one on the road. It seems that Zheng Pei accidentally broke into an unknown area, and the whole village is not popular at all.
Zheng Pei scratched his head, not knowing where to go. He stretched out long, the rattle of joints rattling through his body. Zheng Pei felt bored and wanted to go back to the house and wait for Granny Ye to come back, but the moment he turned around, he suddenly found a figure appearing in the misty mist.
"Who?" Zheng Pei asked.
The other party did not answer. His body was completely obscured by the mist, leaving only a black silhouette standing in place.
"Who?" Zheng Pei had an extra heart and used the scale attachment technique on himself in advance. But the strange thing is that no matter how he recited the mantra or exhaled, he didn't see the slightest barrier of the scaling technique. Zheng Pei was a little anxious, he glanced around, and didn't even find a wooden stick. He faced a strange black shadow with his bare hands, and he was very anxious.
The fog gradually lifted, and the face of the black shadow did not appear. What made Zheng Pei even more nervous was that there were two more figures of similar height next to the black shadow, standing there straight.
Zheng Pei was completely panicked! He had no idea whether the other three were friends or foes, but he soon figured out the truth, because the shiny dagger had clearly appeared in the other party's hand. He turned to run, but found that his body was extremely heavy, and his legs were as if he had a shot put tied to him, and he couldn't move at all! He kept calling out to Granny Ye, but his voice was quickly lost in the mist. Zheng Pei sat on the ground and suddenly found that his tossing was in vain, because all the surrounding paths and rooftops were full of black shadows. They held shiny daggers in their hands and evil smiles appeared at the corners of their mouths.
However, at this moment, the mist completely dispersed, and Zheng Pei could hardly believe his eyes! These people turned out to be Boss Lin! In other words, these people look exactly like Boss Lin! They danced their blades, and kept smiling and approaching the isolated Zheng Pei!
Suddenly! Through these gaps around Boss Lin, Zheng Pei found the figure of a little boy. He neither spoke nor ran away, just quietly watched Zheng Pei fall into a desperate situation.
Why? Why is this kid here?
At the moment when Zheng Pei was stunned, the hair on the back of his head was grabbed by a big hand, and a hideous-looking Lin boss in front of him stabbed the dagger into his forehead!
"Kid?" Zheng Pei heard a call, and he saw the little boy slowly walking towards him from his blood-red vision.
Child? Child?
Zheng Pei suddenly woke up from his dream, although his vision was dark, he could still feel Granny Ye shaking his arm worriedly.
"Mother-in-law?" Zheng Pei gasped for breath and asked nervously, "Mother-in-law, am I dreaming?" ”
"Are you having a nightmare?" Granny Ye gently stroked the top of Zheng Pei's head and comforted: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, the demons and monsters are all gone, it's good to wake up, it's good to wake up." ”
Zheng Pei pinched himself, and the feeling of pain made him instantly reassured. But then he suddenly felt uncomfortable on his face, as if his eyes were covered by something, and he couldn't see anything.
"Mother-in-law, what's wrong with my eyes?" Zheng Pei asked suspiciously, his tone very worried.
"You just opened the Heavenly Eyes yesterday, and there is still medicine on the wound on your eyebrows." Granny Ye patiently explained. She saw Zheng Pei licking his chapped lips, so she scooped it from the bowl with a small spoon and slowly fed him water.
The cool mountain spring water soothed Zheng Pei's restless mood. He asked softly, "Mother-in-law, when will my wound heal?" I want to go back to school as soon as possible. ”
Granny Ye sighed lightly and said, "You have the cultivation of Ba worm now, and it should be fine soon." But you should recuperate from your injuries, this is your own body, and you can't rush it. ”
Zheng Pei smiled slightly and said, "Mother-in-law, you can help me take a look, maybe the wound has healed." ”
Granny Ye was helpless, so she had to carefully remove the cotton cloth wrapped around Zheng Pei's face slowly. Zheng Pei only felt a dazzling light. He slowly moved his eyeballs to adjust to the outside light, but there was a slight tingling in the center of his eyebrows.
"Oh, you're really getting better than that. Someone else's wound is still bleeding, and yours is almost closed. But you'd better keep it for a few more days. Granny Ye said a little worriedly.
Hearing Granny Ye say this, Zheng Pei was a lot more relieved. He struggled to sit up, his eyes searching around the room.
"Mother-in-law," Zheng Pei asked as he looked for it, "Is there a mirror?" I want to see how the wound is. ”
"Oh, don't worry, the wound will be healed." Granny Ye persuaded. But she still couldn't resist Zheng Pei, so she turned around and went out to bring back a small mirror with a plastic frame for Zhang Pei.
Zheng Pei took the mirror and smiled gratefully. In fact, he didn't want to go back in a hurry, but he never wanted to see that terrible man again, and left this place that gave him nightmares as soon as possible. And Zheng Pei felt that he should be able to recover quickly with the help of Ba Worm Cultivation, as long as he felt that the wound was not too serious, he immediately begged Granny Ye to set off.
A long, shocking black crack on the exterior wall of an old adobe house stretched from the center of his eyebrows to his hairline, and grew squarely on Zheng Pei's forehead. It was no longer possible to distinguish whether it was black snake venom or coagulated blood scabs in the wound, and it was integrated with the black dead skin that had been charred and turned black by the extension of the wound skin, and the yellow-brown new skin was revealed at the partially receded dead skin, like mud thrown up on a coal block. The eyebrows at the center of the eyebrows have all been burned off, and the eyelids and eyebrows are slightly swollen, pulling the corners of the eyes out of shape. The skin outside the wound also turned a light purple, all the way over the temples on both sides, almost to the ears.
Zheng Pei's hands trembled and he could barely hold the mirror, if his face would be like a long eggplant that had been scratched and dried for two days in the future, not to mention the rest, the daughter-in-law should not count on it first.
"Mother-in-law, I ......" Zheng Pei looked at Granny Ye in a panic, he didn't know how to describe his current face.
Granny Ye put the mirror aside, took Zheng Pei's hand in the palm of her hand, patted the back of his hand gently, and comforted: "Don't worry, child, you are recovering well now, or in a few days, this Tianmu will close." ”
"But, but ......" Zheng Pei felt as if he had been deceived, how could this wound heal on its own? He broke away from Granny Ye and hurried out barefoot, but before he could take a few steps, the strong tingling sensation in his eyebrows made him dizzy. Zheng Pei leaned on the door frame with all his body to support himself, his expression was painful.
"Son, why are you going?" Granny Ye anxiously chased after her, and helped the dizzy Zheng Pei to sit on the bamboo chair at the door. She watched a wisp of bright red blood slowly flow down the bridge of her nose from Zheng Pei's open wound, and felt distressed.
"Mother-in-law, this won't work, I'm going to the hospital, I have to find a doctor to stitch me!" Zheng Pei felt something strange on the bridge of his nose, touched it with his hand, and touched it with a bright red hand. He immediately struggled to get up, but was firmly pressed on the bamboo chair by Granny Ye.
"Hey, what are you in a hurry! This wound will definitely heal! Granny Ye also hurriedly comforted, she found a cotton cloth to wipe away the blood for Zheng Pei, and at the same time gently covered his wound with the cotton cloth that had been soaked before. Looking at Zheng Pei's panicked appearance, Granny Ye patiently persuaded: "Child, mother-in-law is giving you medicine, don't worry, this wound must be closed." She felt that this kind of consolation did not seem to be enough, so she took Zheng Pei's hand and lowered her eyebrows, and said, "Mother-in-law also passed through the altar and opened her heavenly eyes. If you touch it, is there a wound on your mother-in-law's head? ”
Touching Granny Ye's smooth and loose forehead skin, Zheng Pei's mood slowly relaxed. "Really?" Zheng Pei still asked uneasily: "Mother-in-law, have you also opened the Heavenly Eye?" Is it really not scarred? ”
"Ugh." Granny Ye laughed and said, "This is the opening of the heavens, they are all fateful, and if you don't die, you can burn high incense." But if you pass this test, you won't have a scar. Granny Ye held Zheng Pei's hand in her hand, patted and comforted her, and said with a happy face: "Child, you have a big life, and my mother-in-law knows it." When you have opened your eyes, you will be able to read the spell book and learn all the powerful spells; I can see the yin and yang of people, and I can control ghosts and ghosts, which is very powerful. ”
"Quick! Fast! There was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and under the command of one man, several people with washbasins were busy.
"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Zheng Pei asked uneasily, "Is something happening?" ”
Granny Ye frowned slightly, sighed, and said helplessly: "Among the people who opened the heavens with you, do you remember that there is a tall child?" ”
"I remember." Zheng Pei replied. How could he have forgotten that the guy had been fighting with him the night before. "What's wrong with him?" Zheng Pei asked anxiously.
Granny Ye shook her head and said, "That kid didn't get the scales of the snake god, I'm afraid he won't be able to stand it at this time." ”
"Why? Why is this happening? Zheng Pei asked puzzled.
Granny Ye patted the back of Zheng Pei's hand and patiently explained: "This heavenly eye is going to be opened and closed. Snake venom is to open the eyes, let the will of the snake god help you open the heavenly eyes that can observe yin and yang; This snake scale is to dissolve the toxicity of the snake god's venom, so that its own cultivation can help you offset the damage of the snake venom and better close the wound. The child only got the snake venom, not the scales. So after opening the Heavenly Eye, the chance to survive can only be blessed by God. Granny Ye looked at Zheng Pei's face and said with relief: "So child, you are really fateful, not only have the cultivation of Ba worm to help you recover, but also found so many snake scales, God blesses you." ”
After listening to Granny Ye's words, Zheng Pei immediately said: "If the snake scales can save his life, then give him a piece." Although he didn't get along well with the tall man, this fresh life was about to disappear, and Zheng Pei couldn't bear it after all.
Granny Ye's expression was slightly surprised, but she still said helplessly: "Everyone's divine body has already fused into the snake scales in his mouth when he still opened his heavenly eyes. Your scales can only save yourself, and you can't use anyone else. ”
Looking at Zheng Pei's lost expression, Granny Ye smiled bitterly and sighed: "Child, fate, this is all fate." ”
