What kind of face is this?

Sludge and blood stained the entire face, and the rest was black except for the whites of the eyes. Skinny like a out of coal.

Qi Xiaoting felt sick in her heart. Thinking of the makeup I used to make, I couldn't help but think: I can't see what I look like, and I was complacent, it turns out that people's faces can give people such a strong reaction! From now on, I will never wear Hanako makeup again.

Look at this woman's hair, the whole thing is a big black felt hat - it can't even be fried!

The clothes on the body can no longer cover the body, and it is still a jacket - spring and autumn clothes. It seems that it is either spring or autumn.

On the top of the woman's head, on the edge of the great hay shop, there was a pile of bones, of various sizes, old and fresh, that could fill a basket.

It seems that this woman is not stupid and incorrigible, otherwise, she would not have thrown bones all over the bottom of the well!

"What's your name?"

Qi Xiaoting couldn't remember how to greet her, so she asked. At the same time, I thought to myself: as long as I know my name, I can communicate, and I will know who she is.

"Hey, little ghost." The woman's mouth grinned, revealing a mouth full of yellow teeth, and laughing was worse than crying.

"It's not coming back, you can go up too!" Qi Xiaoting pointed to the wellhead.

"Hehe, little devil brings meat." The woman gestured with her hand to the length of a ghost baby.

Qi Xiaoting suddenly remembered, it seems that she has been in this well for some time, and she can't go up again, it must be the ghost baby who provided her with food and drink, so she insisted on surviving!

Ghost babies feed and drink for the living! Qi Xiaoting's heart was shocked, and she felt a little pitiful for the ghost baby.

"Let's go up, there is everything to eat on it, and there is a big honey ~ peach."

Qi Xiaoting thought that she might be hungry, so she wanted to lure her with food, and regretted not bringing her another.

The woman looked at the ladder and just smiled "hehe", with an expression that was neither afraid nor joyful, as if it had nothing to do with her.

Qi Xiaoting wanted to pull her up, but when she looked at her hand, it was no worse than charcoal. He took her by the arm and lifted her up.

His arms were as thin as sticks, and there was no muscle at all. The whole person was also skinny to a handful of bones.

However, she couldn't stand up straight—her knees were bent, her waist was hunched, and her whole leg was circled and her waist was full.

"She has been bent at the bottom of the well for a long time, and her legs and waist can no longer be straightened." Long Yi said. Through Ah Mei, he saw the scene here really vividly.

"How do you get her up like this?" Qi Xiaoting asked depressedly.

Long Yi said: "You smear (ambergris) herbal water on her and see if it works?" ”

Qi Xiaoting didn't have ambergris herbal water on her body. If you want to use it, you have to get it in the space.

Someone from above had been peering into the bottom of the well, and in order to avoid people's eyes, she quickly extinguished the flame charm. After flashing into the space, he put on a tight cotton shirt and pants for himself, and then took the ambergris herbal water and flashed out.

It's cold and snowy outside, and the woman's jacket can no longer cover her body, so she uses her own cotton robe to keep her warm, and she is not freezing, and people can't tell that it's not.

When the flame charm ignited again, the people above thought that the flame charm would extinguish itself when the time came.

Ambergris herbal water was already wondering, not to mention that she was still a mortal. After the woman put it on, she quickly straightened up. Qi Xiaoting put on her cotton robe again and led her to the ladder.

However, he refused to go up the ladder. As soon as he urged, he kept shouting "little ghosts" and "little ghosts". Carrying her up the ladder, he struggled down again, not taking a single step up.

If the stalemate continues, the people above will also be frozen. By hugging her, knowing that she was skinny and weighed only seventy or eighty pounds, Qi Xiaoting decided to take her up personally. Clamped into the armpit and led her up the ladder.

"Little ghost, little ghost......"

The woman shouted and struggled, as if she couldn't see the "little ghost" and couldn't go up. It's also thanks to Qi Xiaoting's arm strength, otherwise she really wouldn't be able to hold her.

The people above were also taken aback by the woman. After careful identification, it was boldly confirmed that she was the mad woman who was lost in the spring and adopted by the third old lady.

It turned out that the third old lady was a lonely old man in his sixties who had been living alone since her husband died. A few years ago, suddenly a madwoman ran into the village and asked what she couldn't say. When the third old lady saw that she was pitiful, she should take her in as a companion, so she took her to live with her.

Under the care of the three old ladies, the madwoman was quiet, and she could do some things like pushing the mill and diving, and she could also follow the three old ladies to work in the fields. The third old lady felt that she was a laborer, and because she was getting older, she regarded her as a family member, and the two of them depended on each other.

The crazy woman didn't know after all, and she loved to run around, and she got lost several times, but she was helped by the neighbors to find it. After that, the third old lady watched her more closely, and the third grandmother was at home, so she was not allowed to go out; When the third old lady went out, she took her with her.

One night, she sneaked out while the third old lady was sleeping, and never returned.

"No wonder I can't find it, it's so close and far away, I was waiting in the well!" Someone joked.

"The person who was looking for it broke his leg. It's been seven or eight months, what has she eaten in the well? ”

"That's not what we know. Ask the demi-immortals. ”

"Okay, don't be idle, it's a blessing to find it." The village chief carried the peach in the placket of his coat and said—he was afraid of freezing, so he never put down the peach in the placket—"Go back and hand it over to the third old lady, don't you see that she is still wearing a cotton robe of half an immortal?" ”

When the people left, Qi Xiaoting quietly looked at the place where the brake tire was knocked down, only to see that it had melted away, and there was nothing left on the ground.

There are indeed quite a few people in the village committee. The half-handed Xiangguan named Lao Liu is also there. As soon as Qi Xiaoting entered the house, people asked about the "monster".

Qi Xiaoting picked what she could say and told people, but she only said ghost babies and didn't mention the fetus. It's over, and she doesn't want people to be afraid.

"You mean, the ghost baby already looks like a five- or six-year-old child?" The half-handed incense officer who called the sixth child asked.

Qi Xiaoting nodded: "Almost." However, its skin is dark and swarthy, like psoriasis, and it has not yet formed a fleshy color. ”

"Isn't that fast?" The sixth man said nervously: "Master (ah, Qi Xiaoting has become a master), you have saved the lives of our people in Yijiatun Village!" ”

Qi Xiaoting hurriedly waved her hand: "You can't say that, it's not to that extent." ”

The village chief, the second monk, was puzzled and asked the sixth child: "What are you talking about?" What is the life of a village? ”

The sixth sighed, and said to the village chief and to the people in the room: "After you left, I went home and checked the books. The book says that after the ghost baby grows into ~ human form, it will become a bad tire and begin to take revenge on humans. It was the first to take revenge on its parents, then its family, its neighbors. If it didn't make a good noise, the whole village was killed by it.

"The book says that there was once a village that made a lot of trouble. He also sucked the blood of livestock first, and later, he sucked human beings. One smoke is a family, and half of the people in the village are not spared.

"When the people in the government found out, they sent Mr. Yin and Yang to kill him. It is said that several Mr. Yin and Yang joined forces to fight and kill, and two Mr. Yin and Yang died because of this.

"There was a Mr. Yin and Yang who saw that he really couldn't kill him, so he thought of an idea, set a trap to lure the evil tire into the urn, and then smeared the stone mill with dog blood to crush the evil tire to death."

The people in the room opened their mouths wide in shock, you look at me, I look at you, as if their lives were picked up.

The village chief snorted his teeth and said in horror: "So that's the case, I said how to listen to the voice of a big child like a big child outside, and after a long time, I will become a bad baby!" It's a shame to invite a master, if it's someone else, it's really troublesome. ”

When he was talking, he had already brought up wine and food, and he said that he would let Qi Xiaoting eat dinner before leaving. The sixth child also brought ointment and tweezers to treat Qi Xiaoting's wounds (the blood on her clothes told people about the injuries).

Qi Xiaoting politely declined people's kindness, arched her hand and said, "It's not early, I have to hurry back." As he spoke, he turned around and was about to leave.

"Wait," the village chief handed five taels of silver to Qi Xiaoting: "This is your hard work." ”

Qi Xiaoting smiled: "It's not easy for farmers to make money, so I shouldn't ask for it." ”

"Should, should!" Lao Liu said in a loud voice: "Doing our business, in fact, is taking hard-earned money." Tonight, you bought this money with your blood, don't break the rules of this business. ”

Qi Xiaoting knew that this was the sixth child's excuse for herself, so she said: "Then do things according to the rules." If you say that you can pay for a cow, three taels is enough. As he spoke, he picked up three taels of silver.

Village Chief: "It's too dangerous to have a disappearance tonight." There is also a tree of peaches, and the old rich man of Wujia Town sells one or two pieces of silver, and he can't get it for five taels. ”

Qi Xiaoting: "The old rich man Wu is a rich man, not to mention that he also added joy to his old mother's birthday, and I dare to ask for two taels of silver for him to give me a peach."

"Not tonight, I don't know how many livestock have been killed in the village, it is all the hard-earned money of the people, we can't make things worse for the people. Three taels of silver is already a lot. ”

After Qi Xiaoting finished speaking, she smiled and arched her hand to the people again, and turned to leave.

"Poof......

As soon as she flashed into the space, Qi Xiaoting couldn't hold on any longer, and plunged into Long Yi's arms.

After drinking the ambergris herbal water, the pain subsided a bit, and she kept her head clear. But the burning in the body and the needles all over the body never stopped for a moment. She endured great pain to complete this series of things to do.

When everything was done and the mood relaxed, the pain once again took over, and it was no less than it had been at the beginning. Qi Xiaoting was in unbearable pain, and cried in Long Yi's arms.
