Chapter 138: Instead
But as the year passed, Xiao Mao's family became more and more alienated from outsiders, especially in the seven days before Xiao Mao's birthday, the door of their house was closed, and they couldn't help but be suspicious.
At that time, every child's birthday, every family would boil red eggs and distribute them to their neighbors to celebrate, and Jiang Ren's mother was no exception. While she prepared red eggs for her children, she did not forget to send a few to Xiaomao's family. Just the following year, when she was delivering red eggs, she bumped into the mourning hall that Xiaomao's parents had just finished. Of course, she was extremely surprised, it is said that the death of someone in the family is a big deal, and it is impossible to just secretly pay tribute and not even say hello, it is simply incomprehensible. After inquiring repeatedly, I learned that a few days ago, Xiao Mao's father specially bought a lot of funeral supplies and a small coffin from other places.
Every year since. Everyone has curiosity, not to mention Jiang Renshou's mother, she was originally a Taoist priest, and she is naturally very sensitive to strange things. To say that after Xiao Mao was born, his father's illness was cured, even if he was terminally ill again, he could not be buried in the small coffin, so the small coffin could only be prepared for Xiao Mao, but the blame was that as long as Xiao Mao's birthday passed, there was nothing left, and the mourning hall was removed, and Xiao Mao still went to school and played normally.
The neighbors were puzzled by the strange behavior of Xiao Mao's family in the past ten years, but they didn't cause any trouble, thinking that it was a custom of outsiders, and they got used to it over time. This time, he also helped to take care of Li Xiao enthusiastically, so no one would look at them with strange eyes.
came back and said that Jiang Shou Shou was sensible since he was sensible. I also heard my mother warn me not to get too close to Xiaomao's family if it's okay. He didn't care, he didn't want to get close to anyone anyway, it didn't matter who it was. Only now do I think about it, and my mother's repeated admonitions seem to have anticipated the danger. He has been exposed to it since he was a child, and he has a certain understanding of the study of Xuandao, presumably he is a substitute for someone else's ghost, and the initiator is Xiao Mao's family.
Why did Xiao Mao's family harm themselves, what methods did they use, and whether the coffin in the mountain temple was deliberately done by them. Now. Jiang Shoushou didn't know what he would encounter next, but in short, he had sorted out his thoughts and recognized the enemy, and he was naturally bolder. But that's it. He was still locked in a coffin. If you want to escape all at once, it's not that simple. Maybe someone was following him on the way to the mountain temple, because his mind was on destroying the mountain temple at that time. So I didn't think about it at all. After tossing for a long time, I didn't hear a trace of movement from the outside world, so whether I was alive or dead someone must be watching outside, in this case, "pretending to be dead" must also be pretended.
Jiang Shoushou simply comforted himself, lay flat, and quietly pondered what had happened. It's almost dawn when I come, it stands to reason that if I don't see myself going back at noon, the family will definitely send people to look for him everywhere, if it is really Xiao Mao's family who did it, and he has not been confirmed dead during this time, then they will definitely do it again, rather than in this deserted place with one enemy and three, it is better to do it yourself quickly, and then come by surprise.
But how to make them confirm that they are dead, it is not a way to say nothing, he suddenly remembered that a few days ago, he shed a lot of blood when he changed his teeth, and it happened to be the same trick. So he pried the teeth that had not yet grown together, and luckily, one of the fangs had been loosened, and with a little force, he pulled it out, and at the same time, a stream of blood continued to flow down from his mouth.
Enduring the pain, Jiang Shoushou put his mouth against one of the inner corners of the coffin, hoping that enough blood would flow from the thin slit of the coffin board to the outside, but it backfired, and the blood was quickly stopped, except for the saliva mixed with blood. As a last resort, he pulled out a new tooth that had just erupted again, and this time, the thick blood was like a flood from a broken levee. Then because of excessive blood loss, I felt dizzy and swollen, my whole body was weak, and I became pale and unable to move.
It is not known whether this method of breaking the kettle will work, and after an unknown amount of time, there seems to be movement outside the coffin.
First there was the sound of messy footsteps, then the sound of planks colliding with each other, and the coffin he was in swayed from side to side, and finally the lid was opened through a gap.
Jiang Renshou no longer had the strength to make any more moves at this time, no matter whether the stupid method just now had deceived the eyes of outsiders, he had no ability to escape at all.
Before he could react, the lid of the coffin was immediately closed again, making a heavy collision sound, and strangely enough, it was opened again, and then closed again, as if there was an argument between people outside, and one or two can be judged from the sporadic conversation. After repeating this several times, it was finally completely opened in the last one. Jiang Shoushou thought that his state was on the verge of death, as long as he was motionless and pretended to be dead, no one could see it, at least this was the only thing he could do, so he immediately closed his eyes and waited for the opportunity.
Outside the coffin stood a man and a woman.
"What a baby, after so much blood, the child is his father, will we be retributed for doing this?"
"At this point, if you don't do this, won't all your previous efforts be in vain, just one of them, as long as you are ruthless again, the curse of the family can be completely invalidated in Xiaomao's generation, in order not to repeat the tragedy of the father not seeing the son, then we should do everything."
"But ......"
"But what, it's your fault, if it weren't for you, Li Xiao would have become Xiao Mao's stand-in, the kindness of a woman, let go of the great opportunity, otherwise how could it be so troublesome."
"Then you can't pull Xiao Mao in, he's still a child, if you let him know that three people have been killed to save him, how can we explain to him, he will definitely hate us."
"Hold a grudge, just hold a grudge, since the two of us got married, I can't count how many places I have walked to find a father and son who are exactly the same as me and Xiao Mao's birthday, and only their lives can replace me and Xiao Mao. Don't forget, in order to wait one more day when you are about to give birth, you almost killed both of you, do you have no impression of this kind of pain at all? Fortunately, the child of the Jiang family was also born on this day, and God gave us a second chance, which is really providential. This matter cannot be delayed any longer, and it must be resolved quickly...... You hurry up and take Xiao Mao home, so as not to be suspected by others, I will deal with it here. ”
The lid of the coffin was moved aside, and Jiang Shoushou finally understood that he was not only Xiao Mao's stand-in, but also Li Xiao's stand-in, this family was so selfish and made a conscientious act, what kind of evil arts would they use to deal with themselves, and then Xiao Mao's father's behavior made a qiē want to come out.
