"What did you say!?" I was taken aback, if someone else said such a thing, I might immediately refute it, or even turn my face, but Qiqi is too simple, she will not lie, nor will she be alarmist.

"Qiqi, don't be in a hurry, talk slowly, what's going on today?"

Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief, and looked nervously towards the cave, trembling and explaining the matter. Soon after I ran out to look for medicine, some people silently touched the shack near the melon field, although they were very skillful, but they could not hide the old ghost, those people did not have good intentions, and they did it directly when they met. The old ghost had a wound on his leg, and he had to protect Qiqi, and after putting down the two people, he couldn't stay where he was, and ran away with Qiqi.

A group of people are in hot pursuit, if there is no Qiqi dragging, even if the old ghost is injured, he can easily clean up this group of people. Running far away, that is, the place where I met them at Little Wolf Beach, another group of people appeared, surrounded back and forth, trapping the old ghost and Qiqi in the middle.

"Who are they? Do you know each other? "

"Unrecognizable." Qiqi shook her head, she had lived in Yinshan Gorge for too long and rarely had contact with outsiders, but she turned her face and thought about it, and then continued: "I only remember that there was a woman in red. "

"A woman in red? What does it look like? "

Qiqi said that the woman in red clothes couldn't say how old she was, she looked very young, but she looked like she was over mid-age, about thirty or forty, she looked very beautiful, wearing red clothes, and was surrounded by a group of men.

I pondered alone, the Yellow River beach is very large, there are too many people on both sides of the river who are trying to make a living, and I can't meet everyone, but the famous people have at least heard of it. I've been thinking about Qiqi's description, the entire Yellow River beach has been a man's world for thousands of years, and there are very few famous women, and after thinking about it for a long time, the middle-aged woman in red has only one goal.

No one knows what her name is, but people on both sides of the strait call her a red lady. This is a very mysterious woman.

Is it platoon again?

The rumors outside are not false at all, the red lady is quite powerful, the old ghost takes Qiqi, and there is still room for maneuver to deal with those men, but as soon as the red lady appeared, the situation was immediately reversed. This rumored mysterious woman brought a lot of pressure to the old ghost, who was an enemy left and right, and couldn't run away, and finally lost his temper and completely took out a desperate posture with others.

I haven't seen the red lady, and I don't deny how powerful she is, but I know the old ghost's ability, if he wants to fight hard, it will be very scary. Other people can hardly intervene, only the old ghost is fighting with the red lady. Qiqi has never practiced kung fu, so I can't tell how they fight, but I think it must be very miserable.

"They are fighting, someone is going to arrest me, the master turned around and saw it, come and stop him" Qiqi was afraid, but his eyes were full of gratitude, and said: "The master came to stop him, and the woman in red chased him"

After all, the old ghost is a person, it is inevitable that there will be omissions, he only cares about Qiqi, and there are enemies surging from the left and right, the red lady followed, and took advantage of the moment of the old ghost's negligence, and slashed his neck. The knife used by the Red Lady, in our local dialect, is called "dividing water", which is a knife specially deboned after slaughtering livestock, only one finger wide, but extremely sharp. This knife went down and almost cut off half of the old ghost's neck, and at that time, Qiqi saw that the old ghost's eyes suddenly widened, and his head was crooked along the place where his neck was cut.

When I listened to Qiqi, my heart tightened, can a person whose neck was cut off still live?

But the old ghost did not fall down immediately, but became more ferocious, he turned his hand and grabbed the wrist of the red lady, and punched his head, that punch may be heavier than the punch that punished the Song family brothers at that time, the old ghost's shouting was deafening, like a thunder floating down his head. This punch almost killed the red lady, and the people next to him panicked, and they couldn't care about besieging the old ghost with all their might, and some people carried the red lady away in a hurry, probably wanting to go to the rescue, but there were only five or six people left. The old ghost barely put down three more, and finally couldn't hold on anymore, and staggered to the edge of the puddle. Qiqi couldn't help it, he was forced to that point, blowing small pipes, and attracting some long worms. It was at that time that I arrived just in time.

"Qiqi, then what do you say, saying that the master is not a human, but a ghost?"

"Lord's neck was cut off, and when he fell, I saw him roll his eyes, and he spit out in one breath and didn't move"

Qiqi is not sensible, but if the person is dead or not, she can still tell that the old ghost was hacked to death by the red lady's fatal knife, and he never moved after falling on the edge of the puddle.

It wasn't until I broke up the men who came behind me with the firebolt and went after him to get his beard in the back that the man who was hit by the firebolt was not dead, but one of them had blood-red eyes and was trying to get up. Qiqi was completely out of ideas, and involuntarily wanted to use the chirp to lure those long insects over to resist again, but at this time, the old ghost who had been lying silently next to the puddle suddenly began to crawl.

"Ye tilted his neck half-stretched, turned his head, and slowly crawled on the ground"

The old ghost was like a dead corpse suddenly swindling the corpse, without raising his head, dragging a line of blood marks, slowly crawling on the ground, and crawling towards the strong man who wanted to get up. I didn't witness that scene, but when I think about it, I feel that my scalp is numb, and people who walk in the water are not small, but the old ghost crawled over like this, and the man was suddenly stunned, trembling, and stepped back with his legs on the ground.

The old ghost followed him all the time, and although he climbed very slowly, he was unconsciously getting closer and closer to the man. The man was probably completely frightened, and when he retreated into a depression, he threw himself backwards and fell inside. The old ghost was still crawling, and he climbed into the depression, and Qiqi was also scared at that time, so he slowly stood up, walked to the side of the depression, and stretched out his head to look down.

The old ghost was still slowly squirming like a corpse, and the man began to scream twice, but the old ghost slowly climbed on top of him. At that time, Qiqi couldn't see what the old ghost's face looked like, and he could only see the man's mouth wide open, his eyes were as wide as eggs, and his throat gurgled for a non-human sound, and his hands and feet twitched wildly.

At that time, Qiqi was frightened, she thought that the old ghost had been hacked to death by the red lady, but she didn't expect that she could still insist on crawling out for so long. At that time, I chased the beard and didn't come back, and Qiqi was at a loss. Standing on the edge of the puddle and stunned, then, the old ghost staggered to his feet and climbed out of the puddle, Qiqi didn't dare to speak, just watched from the side, the old ghost began to wrap his wounds with cotton cloth, Qiqi even saw him support his neck hard, so that his head could move back to its original position.

Later, when I came back, Qiqi was very scared, but she didn't know what to tell me, until the old ghost fell asleep in the cave in a groggy state, and she found an opportunity to call me out.

"Has the master become a ghost?"

"No, don't think about it." I frowned, according to my judgment, the old ghost must have been hacked to death by that knife, and from this, I suddenly remembered what Grandma Seven had said to me in the past. Back then, Grandpa went into the water, and his body surfaced from under the water, but in the end, he still survived, although the process was a bit surprising.

"Then what's going on with that master, he's dead, what's the matter?" Qiqi discussed with me in a whisper, and halfway through speaking, he suddenly paused, looked at the cave, and opened his mouth slightly.

I subconsciously looked back and saw that the old ghost had stood on the edge of the cave at some point, and was silently listening to my conversation with Qiqi.

"Master" Qiqi shouted timidly and hid behind me.

I could see the wrinkled and pale face of the old ghost, and I was not afraid, I knew that this old fellow, whether he was dead or alive, even if he really became a ghost, would not come to harm me.

"Come back." The old ghost beckoned to us and turned to walk into the cave.

I walked back to the cave with Qiqi, who was trembling slightly, and the old ghost leaned against the stone wall, sitting there, as if he had suffered a serious illness, and his strength was weak. I was afraid that his wound was not healed, and I wanted to go over to take a look, but the old ghost waved his hand and motioned for me to sit down opposite.

"Lao Tzu didn't leave this time, he stayed quietly, just to try the hearts of those people." The old ghost looked at me silently and said, "You are already the head of the seven gates, if Lao Tzu doesn't pave the road, can you walk with peace of mind?" "

"Are you still leaving?"

"Baby, there are some things, Lao Tzu doesn't do it, others don't do it, and finally he dies to the end, and he can't regret it." The old ghost said: "Your lord sees that you are too expensive, and he was reluctant to let you suffer when he was a child, and now he will teach you anything, it's too late, what Lao Tzu can give you is a life-saving ability." "

I have a hunch that the old ghost must have to mention the events of the past, he and my grandfather are both serious river girls, and what happened to them must be secrets that only the river gods know.

"Baby, do you know, your grandfather, Chen Liujin, is a person who has died once a long time ago." The old ghost said: "If he is not a river man, even if you grow up, you won't be able to see him, so you can only go to his grave every year to burn paper." "

And sure enough, it was! My heart moved, and my premonition came true, the old ghost really mentioned the strange thing back then. It was a strange thing that Grandma Seven had witnessed, and it was also a mystery that made me feel very puzzled.

"This matter, not long ago, the sixth told Lao Tzu that Lao Tzu is Nagato, and he used up the most precious thing in Hezizi, so he can't help but tell me." The old ghost said: "When he was young, not long after your father was born, he was entangled in something in the water and lost his life, if it wasn't for Lao Tzu's good friendship with him when he was young, he wouldn't have escaped that catastrophe." "

The old ghost said vaguely, and the details were not clear, but I heard it very clearly, what he said was what the seventh grandmother told me, grandpa was in distress because he went down the river, and his body surfaced on the river.

"How the hell did you get that?" I couldn't help but ask.

"Baby, tell you." The old ghost shook his head, stared at me, and said, "Serious river wretches have two lives. "
