Chapter 203: Peach Wood Fu 6
Grandpa recognized them and knew their methods, but he didn't understand how they had come all the way from Ba'an. / class-7-1.html But Grandpa is not in a hurry to ask them, as long as he ties his hands to him for the frozen bones of his head, and there is more time to ask slowly.
The thread in Grandpa's hand is a silk ear. He was worried that the frozen bones would not be able to see the silk and became vigilant, so he secretly grabbed a handful of damp soil and clenched it in his fist, and when he pulled out the silk, he smeared the soil on the silk. So that the frozen bones can be seen.
For the frozen bones of the head, he took the silk neatly, and pulled it a little harder, but it was not broken. He laughed, "It looks so thin, like a woman's embroidered thread, but it's quite strong, I thought you were teasing me with a thread that breaks when you pull it lightly." This is a fishing thread, right? As he spoke, he wrapped the other end of the silk around his wrist and tied a slipknot. But with a roll of his eyes, he pulled the slipknot and changed it to a dead knot. It seems that he has made up his mind not to let his grandfather go.
Grandpa watched him change the slipknot into a dead knot and smiled, "I use it a lot for fishing." ”
He couldn't help but think of the scene when Millet killed the monkey puppeteer and the water monkey when he was in Thrush Village. Xiaomi now has a silk in its hand. Some lovers say "thousands of miles together", or "drink the water of the Yangtze River together", and always want to find something to have in common with lovesick people. And both of us have this silk, isn't it also a kind of lovesickness?
Suddenly, my grandfather remembered the words "I don't know if I am happy".
The flames on the firewood jumped, reflecting Daddy's face.
"Fishing?" Asked for the frozen bones of the head.
"yes. Fishing. Daddy said.
"Oh, I loved fishing the most in my life, and I loved it again when I died. However, fishing in life is not the same as fishing after death, but both test patience. ”
Daddy didn't know what fishing was like after death, so he asked, "Oh? Is this fishing different before and after death? Can you tell us what the difference is? ”
The frozen bones didn't answer, and the others laughed scoffingly.
"Of course there's a difference. When fishing before death, you have to sprinkle bait on the surface of the water, and you have to wear bait on the hook to lure the fish to the bait. Said for the frozen bones of the head.
"Don't you use it after you die?"
"You don't need it when you die."
"How do you fish that?"
"Uninvited, those who wish to take the bait." The frozen bones said.
The other frozen bones couldn't help but hold back their laughter.
Only then did Grandpa realize that fishing was not fishing when he was talking, but using the fire to lure passers-by to take the bait and become the "fish" in their nets.
When Grandpa saw them laughing, he laughed with them.
Grandpa followed them for a while, and then asked, "Ladies and gentlemen, can you ask why you have come all the way from that place in Ba'an?" ”
Seeing that his grandfather had become a turtle in the urn, the frozen bones relaxed his precautions and replied disappreciatively, "It's okay to tell you." We came here by trekking through mountains and rivers to join a man named Zesheng. I heard that he is gathering Yin soldiers everywhere, and we are here to join his Yin soldier army. ”
"Join the Yin Soldiers? Why? Daddy asked.
"Whether we are a little ghost is high or not, low or low, it is too difficult to cultivate on our own, so we will look for opportunities to see if his side is better."
"I see!" Daddy finally understood why he had met them again here.
I didn't expect Ze Sheng to be a little famous in the ghost world.
"If you go with him, you might as well follow me." Grandpa laughed.
The frozen bones of the head frowned and said, "With you? What benefits can you give us? ”
"I won't die again. People die as ghosts, and ghosts die as deaf. If you become deaf, it will be difficult to turn back into ghosts, let alone become human again. Daddy said.
He snorted for the frozen bones of his head and sneered, "Let's not die again?" You can't make it tonight and have to say something else, but you kindly care about us! ”
Grandpa said fearlessly: "I know that you have sucked a lot of innocent people's yang energy over the years, and you are definitely no longer the little ghosts you used to be." But I've not lived in vain all these years. I dare to sit here today, dare to be tied to you, and I don't rely on a momentary will. This fire of yours will roast me for two more hours, and I will not feel cold. If you add a few more bones and wood, I will not be afraid. ”
The frozen bones were surprised: "Can you tell that our firewood is human bones?" ”
Of course, Grandpa can't see the human bones at this time, but he has seen their true colors clearly last time, and he knows them without looking at them this time. Seeing the frozen bones, Grandpa asked this question, and deliberately said: "I didn't know last time, but now I can see it clearly." ”
Frozen bones were stunned for a moment, and asked, "Then you still let me tie you together?" ”
Daddy laughed and said, "Do you know what kind of line this fishing line is?" "The so-called thief captures the king first, and now the frozen bones of the head have been tied to him, and my father thinks that even if I tell them, the other frozen bones will not leave the head and run away, but can contain them.
Grandpa originally wanted to go to Ze Sheng alone, but after thinking about it at this time, he had a new plan.
"Didn't you just say fishing line?" The frozen bones stood up in a panic and pulled their grandfather's hand higher. He knew that the answer was clearly false.
"You've been a ghost for so many years, haven't you seen or heard of Silk?" Grandpa shook his hand and pulled the silk so that the frozen hand shook with him.
"This is the silk that can kill ghosts?" The frozen bones trembled. The eyes of several other frozen bones widened as well.
But there was also a very young-looking frozen skeleton who asked, "What silk?" I thought that if I died, I would not be afraid to die again, could there be anything else that could kill me? "He's supposed to be a newly dead ghost.
Sitting next to him, the frozen skeleton who looked older than him scolded, "What the ghost becomes after death, it can easily kill you!" Boss Yang is tethered by this thing of his! ”
Grandpa thought to himself, there is a saying in the world that "newborn calves are not afraid of tigers", and perhaps there should be a similar saying in the underworld that "the newly dead ghosts are not afraid of deafness".
For the frozen bones of the head, he hurriedly stretched out his other hand to untie the dead knot.
Grandpa tugged at the silk with his own hand and said, "As long as I pull this thread hard, your palm will fall off." So you'd better not move. "Grandpa knows that even if he asks him to solve it, he won't be able to solve it. The silk is too thin, and the knotted place is impossible to start with. Besides, the silk was barely visible, and although it had been smeared with dirt just now, the knotted areas did not necessarily look like they were not integrated. Although she is afraid of fire, she is also afraid of fireworks in the world, not ghost fires. Even if the frozen ghost put his hand into the fire in front of him, he couldn't help it. What's more, he didn't know it when he saw Silk, so how did he know that this thing was afraid of fire? Grandpa read all the classics, and didn't know that it was afraid of fire until he got it, but he stumbled upon it when he used it later. So Daddy guessed that few people or ghosts knew about it.
"What the hell do you want?" I pulled the frozen bones of my head twice, and when I found that I couldn't untie it, I asked angrily.
"I guess what I just made clear, right?"
"You want us to come with you?"
Daddy nodded slowly.
"What do you want us to do? We're nothing more than tempting imps to roast the fire, and we're of little use to you. "He was arrogant just now, thinking that he had the initiative, and he had to start showing weakness at this time.
Grandpa said, "I want you to go to Zesheng." I happened to be looking for him. ”
"You're going to go to him too? Then we are all the way, why do you want us to follow you? "Frozen bones don't understand what Daddy means.
"I'm going to him, not to him. You sit down first, and we'll have a good talk. Daddy stood up, pressed him down, and sat down himself.
Frozen bones sat down.
"That's right. I was going to go to him alone, but I didn't expect to meet you old friends here. Since we are so destined, I would like to ask you to help me. Aren't you going to go to Zesheng? You can still go to Him. But you have to find out exactly where he is, and if you can, help me get in. As long as I meet him well, I will not embarrass you. Although I have a silk on me and a ghost-killing peachwood sword in my bag, I don't want to kill too many innocent ghosts. After all, there are still many of Ze Sheng's Yin soldiers who he forcibly pulled in. Some people are still concerned about their relatives at home, and some are still waiting for their companions to belong to Huangquan together, if I kill these ghosts by mistake, I will feel guilty. Daddy said.
"You have a grudge against Ze Sheng? You're going to kill him? Frozen bones asked.
Grandpa smiled bitterly: "If there is a solution to the problem without killing him, I will not do it." At the moment there seems to be no better way. ”
"The cunning rabbit is dead, and the lackeys are cooking. When we help you see him kill him, you won't let us go. We're going to die sooner or later, so why help you? Frozen bones said.
Several other frozen bones also nodded.
The flames are getting smaller and smaller, and they forget to add firewood.
Daddy said, "You don't have to worry. As I said earlier, even with Ze Sheng, if there is a solution to the problem without killing him, I will not kill him. The reason why I wanted to kill him was because he forced me to do it. You're not going to force me to kill you, are you? ”
The frozen bones looked at each other and did not speak.
Daddy added, "But don't trick others into joining you in the future." ”
He spoke for the frozen bones of his head: "Tell us not to trick others into making a fire, just as telling the water ghost not to pull the person by the water as a stand-in, telling the hanged ghost not to induce people who want to see the short term to hang themselves, telling the cat who worships the moon not to come out on a full moon night, and telling the hungry ghost not to be greedy when he sees the offerings." If we don't trick others into baking the fire, and if we don't use this to absorb people's essence to replenish ourselves, we will dissipate in this world, or we will die. ”
