Chapter Ninety-Six: The Old Man
The person who was talking behind the door just now was obviously an old man, but after opening the door, he turned into a young man who was not very old, and several people were a little surprised. Hu Dafang probed his head and looked into the room and said, "Hey? And what about the old man? ”
The young man's expression was flat, but his eyes revealed an old spirit, and when he opened his mouth, it was the old man's old voice just now: "The family is dead, I live by myself, but there is no old man." ”
Hu Da Bread shouted, "Hey, Mom! You, how do you talk you're a youkai? ”
Lao Wu quickly kicked him when he heard him say this, and said embarrassedly: "This, this brother, don't mind, his mouth is not good, he just doesn't speak human words, let's, let's go in and talk?" The young man nodded at Lao Wu, then turned around and walked to the dark place in the room, and Lao Wu hurriedly followed in.
Hu Dabian looked at the dark and strange smell of medicine inside, and said, "You guys go in, I'll sit at the door and blow the wind." After speaking, he found a wooden pier to sit on, and rubbed the dirty ash on his body with his hands. A few people ignored him and went straight into the house.
After Lao Wu came in, he felt that something was wrong, the room was very dark, there were no windows, no light, and he couldn't see anything clearly, so he greeted softly: "That brother, where are you?" Is there an oil lamp in the house? It's too dark, so let's not break your stuff. ”
But after Lao Wu finished speaking, he didn't get any response, so he quickly turned around and whispered to Wen Shenglian: "Brother, you have good eyes, look where that person is!" But before Wen Sheng could reply, the old man's voice sounded beside Lao Wu, and he said with a strange smile: "Everyone has come in, don't stand, find a place to sit first, I'll go see those children." ”
The three of them were puzzled, and Lao Wu muttered, "Sit? Where to sit? Then he said to Wen Shenglian: "Hey brother, you can see if there is a stool near us." ”
Wen Shenglian slowly moved to the wall, touched the wall with his hand, and replied with a sigh of teeth: "There is only one table in the room, I don't see a place to sit, and the wall is so damp that you can press the water out of it with a little effort, and there are still people living in this place?" ”
After hearing this, Xiao Qi smiled and said, "You haven't lived in a broken place, have you?" Do you know the abandoned land temple in the county? I lived there when I was a child, there are not many roof tiles left, I can't block the sun during the day, and I can't block the water on rainy days. ”
But Xiao Qi didn't understand what Wen Shenglian meant, he wasn't talking about the conditions of this house. Wen Sheng even stopped and said: "At first glance, this house is in the shade, and it is also built in a low place, which is most prone to water accumulation and mold, and it is okay to grow mushrooms, but it is not good to live in people." ”
"Huh! Nice eyes! At this time, a candle suddenly lit up between the three people, although the light was weak but they could see each other clearly, Wen Shenglian's hand was still on the wall, he was startled by the sudden light, and couldn't help but retreat half a step back and hit the low cabinet, and the bottles and cans were chaotic.
"Don't be afraid, what kind of medicine are you going to buy? Speaking of which, my medicinal materials here should be quite complete. The young man pursed his lips, unable to see his expression, but the voice was so strange that it felt like singing a double reed, and it seemed that there was an old man hiding behind him, and it was uncomfortable.
Lao Wu was stunned for a moment, then quickly took out the prescription written for him by the blind man from his pocket, handed it to the young man with a smile and said, "It's the above kinds, the money is good to say, the key is that we are in a hurry!" But the young man didn't pick it up, and Lao Wu was still a little embarrassed with his hand.
After a while, the young man said, "You don't have to give it to me, just read it out and I'll listen to it." Lao Wu could only gather by the candle flame and read several medicinal materials on it.
The medicinal herbs that the blind man asked them to buy were basically known to Lao Wu, and they were used by some ginseng and other great tonics. But he had never heard of the last medicinal herb, and it was not easy to see that the word was the word "membranous bone".
As soon as the young man heard this, his eyes immediately lit up and stared at Lao Wu. It made Lao Wu a little hairy, and his eyes didn't know where to look, so he heard the young man cough a few times, and then said in a muffled voice: "Who prescribed this medicine for you?" ”
Lao Wu didn't know what was going on, but he was a little stunned by this young man, and he didn't dare to hide it and tell the truth: "It was written by Jiang Blind." Then he pointed at Wen Shenglian and said, "It's his son who needs that medicine to save his life." ”
"Ginger is blind? Who is it? The young man walked with his feet lifted up as if he were at the door. Lao Wu hurriedly followed and said, "Oh! Yes, it's the blind man, our Nanpo Village. ”
The young man was stunned for a moment when he heard Lao Wu say that he was blind, and said with a strange smile: "I'll just say, except for that old guy, who knows this membranous bone!" Lao Wu was confused, what to do with something, but he didn't know what to say, so he could only go out without speaking.
Hu Dabo was still sitting at the door, and when he saw someone coming out, he looked up, and the young man also looked down at him, and the two stared at each other for a few seconds. Hu Dabao turned his head to look at Lao Wu again and asked him, "Have you finished buying?" I'm a little cold, let's, let's go back! ”
The young man suddenly turned around and said to Lao Wu with a smile: "This sturdy man at the door is your brother, right?" Lao Wu hurriedly nodded and said yes, saying that Hu Dazhu was his second brother.
When he heard this, the young man said, "Then ask him to do me a favor, and let us go to the back of the house and take what you want." ”
Hu Dabao seemed to understand that he wanted to catch him to work, and he didn't get up and said unhappily: "What are you doing?" Yes! Do? Think you're Hu Yebiao? Use me as a coolie at night? Lao Tzu won't go! ”
Lao Wu kicked him and scolded: "Don't make a mistake, your life is at stake, don't throw face at me!" But Lao Wu's words didn't work this time, Hu Da didn't get up no matter what he said, moved his big buttocks, and found a comfortable place to sleep against the wall. But before he could pose, the young man only said a word, and then let him jump up and lick his smiling face and follow.
That year, the people said that if he went to do a small favor, he would give him the money for a blind medicinal herb, and then put it in his pocket. Hu Da Arm came here for money, this I heard that there is money and can be in the pocket, it is really easy to say, now let him pretend to be a grandson, he will do it, and he can also send a few calls to the master, and the young man who trotted all the way followed the young man first.
When they walked around the house to the back, they saw Hu Dabao standing alone by a well and looking inside, while the young man was standing a little farther away, as if avoiding the well. Lao Wu was startled and hurriedly ran over to get Hu Da Arm away from the well, but as soon as he walked behind Hu Da Wing, he saw the mouth of the black hole, and suddenly his whole body was extremely cold, his frozen teeth trembled, and he wanted to reach out to grab Hu Da Arm, but his arm was stiff and couldn't lift it, and his whole body seemed to be pierced by a long needle and couldn't move a little, and there was a feeling of being frozen and solidified in his brain.
Then he was grabbed by the collar and dragged him back a few steps away from the vicinity of the well, only to feel that his body was his own. Lao Wu sat down on the ground with a "poof", unable to say a word, his whole body was so uncomfortable that he just wanted to gause.
The old man's voice sounded above his head: "That well is open to the underworld, people like us can't get too close, but that strong brother's yang energy is enough to withstand the yin energy coming out of the well." ”
After speaking, he said to Hu Dabao, who was standing by the well: "Brother Zhuang, don't waste time, quickly pull the rope by the well, and bring out the things below, that is what you want." ”
Hu Da bent down in the moonlight, and saw that there was indeed a thick rope nailed to the mouth of the well, and the end was still hanging in the well. Seeing this, he spat a few mouthfuls on his hands and said, "Come on!" Then he put his foot against the edge of the well, and pulled the rope with both arms, and after a while, he pulled out the thing hanging on the head of the rope, and lifted it out of the well with his waist and put it on the ground. ”
But then, when he saw what he had dragged out, his face froze instantly, and his lips trembled a few times and said, "Why, how are they dead children?" ”
