Meridian Nail Chapter 17: Reckoning
As soon as the girl in gray kowtowed, Mei Wanghe also panicked - the Tao is natural, and he doesn't want to be the focus of everyone's attention. "Little girl, please tell me something, don't be like this, don't be like this." Taking two steps forward, Mei Wanghe wanted to pick up the girl.
The Grey Maiden cried out, "If you don't answer me, I won't get up." β
The guests in the noodle restaurant were stunned, and since then there has been a version of the story circulating in Mobei: the two girls of the Shen family forced each other to die and proposed to the old Taoist priest.
Mei Wanghe could only agree first.
The Grey Lady led Mei Wanghe into a small hidden door on the side of the alley, inside which was a courtyard of the Boss, separated by a wall in front of itβthe location of the noodle shop.
There was an attic in the courtyard, and from upstairs came the howls of wild beasts and the scolding of women. The Grey Lady led the way in front, but took Mei Wanghe to the attic.
The front room was hung with pink curtains, but it was a boudoir.
The gray girl opened the curtain and saw an embroidered bed inside, on which lay a skinny woman, with only a few stems of green hair left on the top of her head, making her look like a skinned skeleton. The woman let out a terrible howl, and the voice was not quite human. After screaming, she relieved herself and began to curse a certain man again.
In Mei Wanghe's thoughts, this must be a sad heart after falling out of love, as the so-called heart disease also has to be treated with heart medicine, he has no wife and no children in his life, and he has never tasted the taste of falling out of love at all, how can he be sad? "I'm sorry, but I can't cure the disease of broken love." He said.
The Grey Lady seemed to be accustomed to seeing the pain of the patient, and was numb to the screams, and said expressionlessly: "It's not that she has fallen out of love, she has fallen into witchcraft, so every noon time is like a knife, and it is very painful." β
Mei Wanghe's heart moved, and he said strangely: "How do you know it's witchcraft?" "You must know that poisoning can cause similar symptoms, cancer can also cause similar symptoms, and the gray girl in front of her obviously has no cultivation at all, but she is very sure that the patient has witchcraft, which is indeed a bit strange.
The Grey Lady said hatefully: "What's so hard to guess about this, not only do I know that this is witchcraft, but the person who said that this witchcraft is ......"
"Don't say ......," the patient in the bed suddenly screamed, and then screamed again.
The Grey Lady immediately changed her words, "Anyway, it's witchcraft, and I hope the Taoist will rescue her." β
Mei Wanghe doesn't look down on witchcraft very much, so he doesn't study witchcraft, and even if he knows that it is done by witchcraft, he can't solve it. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I don't know about witchcraft, so you'd better ask for another skill!"
The gray girl was obviously disappointed, but she didn't dare to force it, and sighed, "Alas! I didn't expect her to be so miserable. He didn't say anything anymore, and walked towards the door curtain with Mei Wanghe and Han Xuanxuan.
Suddenly, someone in the courtyard shouted enthusiastically: "Miss Zeng, you have helped me a lot!" How can I thank you! "Listening to the voice, it's an old woman. Then Zeng Mengshu's voice sounded, "I vow to be a good person, of course, I have to start by saving people!" But it's not me who helps, it's her. β
The old woman's voice sounded again: "Thank you Wood Fairy, thank you Wood Fairy!" β
Another cold voice said, "Don't say thank you again, no matter how much you say, my medical expenses will not be reduced by a point." β
Mei Wanghe didn't expect Zeng Mengshu to not die, and even invited helpers. At this time, he didn't want to meet Zeng Mengshu, so he could only say to the girl in gray: "Little girl, there is a little misunderstanding between me and the girl surnamed Zeng, and I will have to fight when we meet - you help me find a place to hide." β
The girl in gray said reasonably: "I see, you two come with me." "The room was small, but there was a screen on the wall. She led the two of them behind the screen, where there was a hanger and a wooden tub, which turned out to be the place where the women in the bed changed their clothes and bathed.
As soon as the two of them hid, an old woman's elongated voice came from outside the door: "Second girl-"
The Grey Maiden hastened to reply, "Here it is, here it is!" She turned out from behind the screen, and then the curtain moved, and the old woman walked in first, and pointed to the patient on the bed: "Come and see, this is my eldest girl." β
Seeing that the age of the girl in gray is only seventeen or eighteen, and the age of the patient in the bed is forty years away, Mei Wanghe originally thought that the two were mother and daughter, but he didn't expect them to be sisters.
Zeng Mengshu was standing next to a middle-aged woman, and she was surprised to see the scene on the bed.
On this side, the second girl of the Shen family didn't expect Zeng Mengshu to really be willing to help herself, so she was so moved that her eyes were filled with tears, and she walked over and took Zeng Mengshu's hand and said, "You...... I ......" in excitement, I couldn't even say the third word.
Zeng Mengshu said with a big grin: "Don't cry, it's a trivial matter!" As soon as I inquired afterwards, I found out that your sister was sick. We're sisters, of course I'm going to help you! β
Shen Er Girl said hatefully: "Gan Meng is extremely shameless, he will give that woman a meridian nail operation when he sees a beautiful girl, which makes that woman's heart ache for four hours a day." If the woman can't hold back, he will only be willing to solve witchcraft if he automatically sends him to the door to insult him. β
Zeng Mengshu glanced at the patient on the bed and said curiously: "Gan Meng will take a fancy to her?" The taste is really unique! "The girl Shen on the bed is half human and half ghost, saying that it is scared to death, but some people believe it, and no one will believe her ghost.
The girl's family was very concerned about her beauty, and when Miss Shen heard Zeng Mengshu's words, she suddenly began to cry. The second girl Shen was also anxious to argue: "It's not like that, my sister used to be a flower in Mobei, but the meridian nail spell has been three years old, and it has become what it is today." β
Miss Shen was so sad that she kept banging her head against the wall, and the old woman was the mother of these two daughters, and she hugged Miss Shen to death. The second girl Shen was also anxious, knelt on the side of the bed and cried: "Sister, don't be like this, sister, don't be like this!" β
Behind the screen, Mei Wanghe said secretly: "This Zeng Mengshu really can't speak!" β
At this time, the wood fairy suddenly said coldly: "I can't see her like this clearly, take her to the window, I'll take a serious look." There was absolutely no emotion in his voice, and it was so cold that it made people chill in their vests.
"Yes, yes, yes." The old woman agreed again and again, picked up Miss Shen with the quilt, and easily hugged her to the window.
Originally, the weight of a young girl plus the weight of the quilt could never be held with the strength of the old woman, but this Shen eldest girl curled up in the quilt all over, and even the quilt plus people was only forty pounds. β
Miss Shen was powerless to resist and endured the pain silently.
The wood fairy walked up to Miss Shen, opened her eyelids and looked at her carefully, and then put her hand into the quilt.
Miss Shen bit her lower lip, closed her eyes and trembled, and a flush welled up on her face.
The old woman persuaded: "They are all women, don't be afraid." "It's like coaxing a child.
"Alright." The wood fairy still said coldly, "Put it back!" She walked to the window with her hands behind her back, looked at the scenery and thought, and stopped looking at the eldest girl Shen who was put back on the bed.
Whether the disease in front of her can be cured or not is all tied to her alone, everyone in the room was silent for a while, and for a while there was only the suppressed sobbing sound of Miss Shen.
After about ten seconds, the wood fairy didn't look back, and said, "Prepare 50,000 yuan, when will you prepare the money, when will I start to treat the disease." β
Zeng Mengshu shouted: "50,000 yuan? Why don't you grab it? β
The wood fairy suddenly turned around out of control and glared at Zeng Mengshu: "Fifty thousand yuan is less, I'll count it for you:"
"First, I don't want to come, whose girl is going to die or live is my business? You forced me to come. I'm blowing the heating all over the day, and it's not good to drink beer, but I want to go to Mobei to blow the cold wind? This loss is going to be counted, right? β
Zeng Mengshu didn't speak, and the old woman said in a loud voice: "If you want to count, you have to count." β
Second, if someone is practicing witchcraft, he must not want anyone to break his witchcraft. If I break other people's witchcraft, then I will offend people, and there will be a lot of troubles in the future. Isn't that what you have to do? β
Zeng Mengshu originally thought that it would cure a disease, it was very simple, but when he heard what the wood fairy said, he felt that it was really like this, and couldn't help but say: "......What about this?"
"Third ......"
"It should be," the old woman was afraid that the wood fairy would spend more and more money, so she hurriedly shouted: "We admit 50,000 yuanβbut we didn't prepare so much for a while, can you pay a part of it first, and we will definitely give it later." β
The wood fairy stretched out his hand, "How many will be brought first." β
The old woman rummaged through the cabinets, and finally found a stack of money, counted it, and hurriedly handed it to the wood fairy. The wood fairy took the money, sat on the Taishi chair in the room, counted the money one by one, the banknotes and bills sounded "bang, bang", from time to time she would stop, take out a piece of money and look at the light, that look like a money fan.
After counting it, it should be 10,000 yuan, the wood fairy had a smile on his face, and said: "Since the other party is a person who was injured by witchcraft, I naturally have to use witchcraft to solve it." You go and find half a pound of thatched roots, a big red rooster, and three mung beans. Among them, the rooster must have been raised for more than five years, and the mung bean must be every other year. β
I heard the old woman shouting: "Second girl, this mung bean is easy to find, and the thatch roots are everywhere, so it is difficult for the big red rooster." Business is out of business today, I'll go out with you to buy a rooster! He shouted again: "Miss Zeng, you helped me see the doctor, this place is messy, don't let anything happen to her." β
Zeng Mengshu reacted slowly and shouted, "Don't worry, nothing will happen with me." The wood fairy sneered and said, "Don't worry, I won't run." β
Then the sound of going downstairs sounded, and only the sound of Miss Shen crying was left in the room.
"People behind the screen, you can come out!" The wood fairy sat in the Taishi's chair and said coldly.
Mei Wanghe couldn't help but sigh secretly: "Maybe this wood fairy can't beat Zeng Mengshu, but when it comes to the experience of the rivers and lakes, it is obvious that the wood fairy is better." He laughed at the moment and pulled Han Xuanxuan out from behind the screen.
As soon as Zeng Mengshu saw Mei Wanghe, her eyes widened in shock, "You ......" Her right hand had already pulled out the paper figure. At the same time, the wood fairy secretly held three silver needles in his palm, and looked at Mei Wanghe with cold eyes, obviously wanting to advance and retreat with Zeng Mengshu.
