Chapter 143: Old Chinese Medicine
This man's words are quite mysterious, I am not from this village, so I am naturally not afraid, but I can frighten these naggers.
A round-faced middle-aged man frowned when he heard this, and asked in a low voice:
"Old Man Zhou really said that in his dream? Didn't you say that someone is going to die? ”
The man shook his head.
"Didn't say"
"And then?"
The men lowered their heads and leaned over, nervously waiting for the rest of the story.
"Later, then I woke up."
This sentence suddenly made these people who were good believers feel disappointed, and they sighed together, and the atmosphere was very embarrassing for a while.
Seeing that they didn't continue to talk, I took advantage of this gap to lean over and say to the man in black:
"Hello big brother"
As soon as I said hello, the eyes of these people shifted to me, and the man in black saw my face, and thought for a long time before asking:
"I'm sorry I might have forgotten, are you?"
I replied:
"I'm a friend of Zhang Qiang, I'm here to visit the door"
With that, I handed over the money and said:
"Big brother, a little heart, you mourn"
The man in black took the money, nodded and said:
"It's Xiaoqiang's friend, he's back too, thank you both for your heart"
I saw him take the money and say a few words to him, and then went out.
Back at the house of Marukotou, he was lying on Erlang's legs, seeing me come back and ask how the funeral was going over there, after I briefly introduced it, I had the heart to tell him about Mr. Zhou's dream, but I was worried that he was afraid that I would hold back again.
While chatting, a man and a woman came in by pushing the door outside, both of whom were about fifty years old, and their parents who were dressed in ordinary clothes should be ball-headed.
I hurriedly stood up and greeted the second elder, this uncle nodded to me, looked at the pill head lying down, frowned and whispered fiercely:
"Why did you come back before it was three years, and you went home to take refuge again."
Maruko replied in a low voice:
"Why did you come back from the stall, I returned home"
"You're a fart"
After scolding, the uncle said:
"You still talk to me about two and a half days of school?"
The two quarreled as soon as they met, it seems that what the head of the ball said is right, the tempers of the two are really similar.
After all, it's their own business, and it's inconvenient for me to get involved, so my aunt can't look at it, so she glanced at her uncle and said:
"Don't eat gunpowder with you, yes, Xiaoqiang come out to eat, I know you're too timid to go, bring you some food"
Hearing this, the head of the ball called his mother, and hurriedly went down to eat.
His father couldn't see the appearance of Maruko's bald head tattoo, sighed and went out to work, and didn't come back until dinner.
Maruki has long been accustomed to the life of being against his father, and it seems that his mood has not been affected at all.
After dark, I slept with him in the Westinghouse, studying the way out in the future, the head of the pill was blocked for my business, and was arrested in Xiaoshan, and now I am forced to hide in my home and even the eldest brother can't do it, so I naturally don't need to hide anything from him, so I told him about the file bag.
But I only said what secrets were in the file bag and what the truth of the car accident was, and did not tell him where the things were stored now.
Maruko was shocked when he heard this, turned over and said:
"No wonder I want to kill you one moment, and then I want to arrest you, you have such a thing in your hand, it's likely to destroy him"
I sighed.
"How to destroy? You know better than me what other people's strength is, the relationship is thick layer by layer, there is no way, I don't know how to use it"
Maruko nodded and replied:
"You really can't be in a hurry, once this thing crosses the wrong person, you will lose your life directly"
"That's right, so let's hide temporarily, once we seize the opportunity to kill him."
"Where did you end up hiding that thing? Is it safe? ”
I nodded and said:
"It's safe at the moment, you can rest assured about this, it's useless to let it go now, and then take it when you get out in the future"
The head of the balls was not angry when he saw that I didn't want to say where it was stored, and after chatting a few more words, he went to sleep.
He was afraid that the ghost would come in the middle of the night, and told me to go to bed later and give him a sentry, I promised, and when he snored, he also fell asleep, and I didn't have yin and yang eyes, and the sixth uncle couldn't come, how could this be watched!
It was windy at night, and the window was not closed before going to bed, so I spent the night in the cool breeze and developed a high fever the next morning.
Strange to say, I was not only suffering from the symptoms of wind and cold, but I was covered with red spots overnight, which was very terrible, and my aunt found out that I was sick at breakfast, and told me to take me to an old Chinese medicine doctor in the village to get some medicine after dinner.
On the way to the village doctor's house with Marukotou, he first introduced me to this old Chinese medicine doctor who is very famous in their village.
When the head of the ball mentioned him, he gave a thumbs up, and said with a look of adoration:
"This old Chinese medicine doctor surnamed Jiang, is over eighty years old, the medical skills are one top one, I have been naughty since I was a child, I broke my arms and legs, all this doctor to see, what equipment is not there, all by hope, smell and ask"
After the head of the ball said this, he instructed me again:
"However, this Dr. Jiang's fee is a bit expensive, and his hands are heavy, and the people in the village give him a nickname, called Jiang Lao Ruthless"
"Jiang Lao is ruthless," I coughed and wrapped my body tightly.
Maruko nodded, telling me to be mentally prepared, don't suddenly feel abnormal by him pinching and twisting.
As we spoke, we crossed a stone bridge.
Maruko came to the stone bridge and took a deep breath, leaned over with a nervous expression and whispered:
"You come with me and run over quickly, don't look back!"
As he spoke, he patted me on the shoulder and ran away.
The stone bridge was not long, and it took a few seconds to cross the bridge, and although I was curious, I listened to the words of Maruko and did not look back.
After a long time, Maruko slowed down breathlessly.
I asked him why, and he sneered, and said as I walked forward:
"Do you know why I'm so afraid of ghosts, brother?"
Fear of ghosts, is the most distinctive label of the head of the ball, I always thought that he was in our company compound at that time to escape the murder of the bronze bell before he began to be afraid of ghosts, so he said:
"Is it because of the bronze bell at that time?"
Maruko shook his head with a wry smile.
"Why, I was already scared before that"
Maruko stared at the road ahead and recalled:
"The small stone bridge just now was the only way for me to go to school, and once I broke the glass of the classroom and was left by the teacher to clean it, and when I went home and passed by, I saw a coffin on the bridge."
"Coffin?" I repeated:
"Just such a coffin, you are a shadow of childhood?"
Maruko shook his head and said:
"After you listen to me, it's a big red coffin, but I was bold at that time, I just thought about running over, but I didn't think that as soon as I passed by, the coffin lid was lifted, and the people inside sat up!"
I smiled and said:
"It's a corpse, it's not dead, is it?"
The head of the ball waved his hand helplessly.
"When I went home and told my parents about it, they also inquired everywhere, no one died in the village, and when my father led me to find it again, the coffin was inexplicably gone, isn't this just a living hell, since then, I have been very timid"
"And do you see the face of the man who sat up from the coffin?"
Maruko nodded and said:
"I saw it, I always wanted to forget it, I can't forget it, it's a middle-aged man with a square face"
It turns out that this is the case, but I didn't expect that the head of the ball was timid and had such a little story.
At the mention of this, the head of the ball suddenly remembered the words written in dog blood on the side of the road when we fled, and suddenly changed his face, and asked nervously:
"You said that Uncle Sixth won't let us go, will he already come with him and watch near the two of us?"
It's okay if he doesn't say it, but as soon as he said this, I felt cold, and I felt that even the wind in the forest was full of yin.
We looked around nervously, and suddenly, I really saw a figure in the woods!!
I shuddered in my voice, and shouted with a surprised push of the pill head:
"There's someone over there?"
Maruko's eyes widened, and he quickly turned his head to look in the direction of my finger, and there was nothing but a few small trees.
My startling frightened the head of the pill miserably, and he immediately became serious, pointed at me and scolded:
"You're going to scare me right away after I'm done telling you?"
I shook my head helplessly and said:
"I didn't scare you, it's broad daylight, and it can't be a ghost, I really saw a person standing there staring at the two of us"
Maruko Tou breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"You're dazzled, you're busy working in the field at this time, who has the leisure to peep at you, it's bad"
"Hmm," I replied, "
"Maybe, it's hard to use your brain with a fever, stop talking nonsense, hurry up and find the old Chinese medicine doctor"
There was such a fork, the pill head was not in the mood to talk to me, and the two of us walked all the way to the house of this prestigious old Chinese medicine doctor, Jiang Laolu.
Doctor Jiang really has a style, at such an old age, he still has black hair and eyes like torches, if it weren't for his stiff body, he would definitely not have guessed that he was already over eighty years old.
Dr. Jiang asked me what was wrong with me, and looked at the red dots all over my body.
With a frown, he asked:
"Where have you been these days, why are you still infected with this thing?"
I shook my head and replied:
"I just arrived yesterday, and I stayed at his house in the village for a night, and I didn't go anywhere else, what is my red dot? It's a terrible itch."
Dr. Jiang didn't reply, he rolled up my sleeve and slapped a few times on a red dot on his arm.
After a while, the red dot actually became much larger, and what scared me even more was that even the color became darker, as if the slightest puncture would immediately ooze blood.
Dr. Jiang put my arm down and whispered:
"That's right, it's legumemia, a kind of corpse poison"
Ptomaine??
Hearing this, I shouted out at the same time as the head of the ball.
How can it be corpse poison?
I thought about it in surprise, by the way, not only did I stay at the Marukotou house for a night, but I also went to the Zhou family of the newly deceased man to have a meal, was it infected at his house?
Dr. Jiang gave me another pulse, sat up straight and stared at me for a long time, and said slowly:
"You've eaten carrion!"
