I took a few looks, and saw that among this group of people, there were about a dozen people distributed in twos and threes on the periphery, seemingly random, but looking down from above, I could clearly see that these people happened to control all the entrances and exits of this place. In the center, a tent is set up, and people can be faintly seen inside.

Looking at the attire of these people, it is completely different from those in our village, it is much more foreign, and it may be from a big place. I was watching intently when I suddenly heard a noise behind me.

I suddenly got up, scooped up a rock from the ground, and hid between the two rocks beside me. In this kind of wilderness, it is easiest to encounter some hungry wolves and beasts, which is a defensive instinct that has been cultivated by my third uncle since childhood.

I saw a figure turn out from behind the big scalper, it was a boy, and he looked about the same age as me. looks good, with red lips and white teeth, a straight waist, and a chest that is lying together, obviously panting heavily.

"Who are you?" The man seemed a little surprised when he saw me.

"Who are you?" I looked him up and down with the rock. If you just talk about appearance, this person is not on par with me, but he is dressed like this, coupled with that bookish atmosphere from the inside out, compared to it, I will get rid of a country bun.

"My name is Gu Sihan." The man smiled and nodded at me, "May I ask who you are?" ”

This man spoke quite modestly, which made people feel comfortable to listen to. I said that my name was Lu Jing, I threw away the stone in my hand, sat on the rock, glanced at him a few times, and thought to myself that this person's name sounds like a sissy, thinking cold, is it his father missing his old lover?

Gu Sihan walked up a few steps, pointed to the stone next to me, and said with a smile: "You don't mind if I sit here too, right?" ”

I said sit on it, it's okay, this stone is not mine. Gu Sihan thanked me, then climbed up and sat down next to me, fanned the wind, and said that he was really tired just now.

I looked at him a few times, and when I saw that he was sweating on his forehead and panting heavily, I asked, "Did you climb up from below?" ”

Gu Sihan said: "Yes, I almost couldn't get up." Brother Lu, you climbed up too, right? ”

I said yes. Gu Sihan's eyes lit up and said, "How long have you been climbing?" ”

I estimated that after talking about a while, Gu Sihan pointed to the direction where I climbed up: "Is it from that side?" Seeing me nodding, he said happily, "It's amazing!" ”

I didn't have a good impression of this person at first, mainly because this person, dressed, temperament and talk, were a little out of place with me. But after a few words, I can't help but change a little, and I feel that it is okay to communicate.

I'm a little strange, he looks like he was born in a big city, and he is the kind of rich family with excellent upbringing, and he can climb up this rocky slope with his bare hands, which is also very admirable.

He said that he had followed a master since he was a child, and this kind of climbing kung fu is a basic skill, so he is not unfamiliar. When asked about me again, I said that I learned from my third uncle, and it belongs to the family heirloom. He looked curious and asked me what my family does, and what industry uses this climbing technique.

I told him what I was doing at home, thinking that I wouldn't scare you out of the water. When I was a child, because of my family's business, I was used to being a freak that no one cared about, so I saw this kind of thing a lot.

I didn't think that this person was a strange person, not only did he not taboo, but he asked me excitedly: "Isn't this line of work very interesting?" Do you have to be in constant contact with corpses? ”

I said yes, I grew up touching corpses with my hands, and I reached over and shook them in front of his eyes. He grabbed my hand and looked at it carefully, and after a while, he exclaimed: "Your hand is more slender and well-proportioned than mine, how did you practice it?" Do I need a special touch to make up a corpse? ”

This man is really a problem baby, I withdrew my hand and glanced at his hands, and sure enough, they were also extremely slender, with clean nails and beautiful hands. He said he had learned from playing the piano since he was a child.

I have only read about the piano in books, but listening to Mr. Tian blowing, playing the piano seems to be a very literary and elegant thing. I heard that this person can play the piano, and I still admire it a little.

Over the years, I have been a lonely child in the village who no one cares about, except for Lin Yatou who can talk to me a few words, there are no playmates of the same age at all. It's rare to meet someone who is about the same age as me and doesn't shy away from me, and the two of them can't help but chat happily and forget the time.

I tore a piece of dried beef and handed it to him: "Eat it, it tastes good." ”

Gu Sihan took it and put it in his mouth to chew, saying, "It's delicious, the taste is very authentic!" ”

When I saw that he was happy to eat, I asked, "Look at you like this, aren't you a local?" What are you doing here? ”

As soon as I said this, I saw that his face changed, his expression was gloomy, and he sighed and said, "It's for my sister, my sister has a strange disease." ”

I thought of the group of people under the canyon, who must have been his family, and asked, "Your sister, what's wrong?" ”

Gu Sihan's face turned pale, he glanced at me, his eyes were full of sadness, and he said everything about it.

It turned out that Gu Sihan was the eldest son in the family, and there was a sister two years younger than him. About half a month ago, late one night, suddenly there was a strange cry from the little girl's room, and when the family rushed over to take a look, they saw the little girl curled up on the bed, her face was blue, and she was shaking. There were several scratches on the door frame, as if they had been scratched by something with sharp claws.

At that time, I asked her what had happened, but the little girl seemed to be frightened, her little face was blue, and she didn't say anything, but just shrank in the room and shook up. The Gu family was frightened, and just as they didn't know what to do, they heard another strange scream in the room, and a big black cat ran out from under the girl's bed.

"Black cat?" I asked curiously. Those of us who do this are especially sensitive to black cats. There is a record in the ancient books in our industry: "The cat, the thing that wards off evil spirits, is easy to place in the south." "The black cat is a black cat, which is used to ward off evil spirits. However, there are also many people who believe that black cats are hoodoos. Because usually in places where the evil spirit is heavier, there are often black cats.

From our point of view, the black cat has the role of warding off evil spirits, but it is also easy to attract evil spirits. For example, if there is a new corpse in the house, you don't dare to let the black cat into the house. Because once the black cat touches the corpse, it is easy to cause the corpse to be defrauded.

Therefore, the average person rarely raises a black cat.

Gu Sihan said: "Are you strange why there is a black cat in our family, it is raised by my sister." This is a stray big black cat, which is said to have been picked up by my sister outside and kept at home. My sister is the most favored in the house, she wants to have a pet, and no one has a problem. ”

I let out a sigh and let him continue.

Gu Sihan said: "As soon as the big cat came out, it whined at us, and the cry was sharp and poignant, which made people hairy. My father had the cat kicked out and got the best doctor in the area to treat my sister. ”

But at first, the doctor didn't see the reason, only said that the child was probably stimulated by some kind of stimulus, which caused him to be too frightened, and he forgot to speak for a while, so he could only prescribe some medicine to nourish his mind and calm his qi first.

As a result, that night, something happened again. As soon as late at night, the little girl's terrible screams came from the room, and everyone broke in to take a look, but everyone was frightened, the little girl actually rolled her eyes and leaned on the bed, her head and feet, a skirt was broken, and her body was full of scratches of different lengths, and there were blood stains.

The black civet cat was standing at the head of her bed, covered in blood, with one of its ears broken, and one leg lame, and screaming at the sight of everyone, its tail standing up, and its hair blowing up.

Gu's father was distressed at that time, and he was furious, and ordered someone to quickly catch the cat and kill it. The black civet cat was already lame, and was soon surrounded by people and put on a rope, and was about to be strangled on the spot. Gu Sihan was still cautious, saying that this cat was his sister's favorite pet, and if he made a mistake, he couldn't explain it.

After he said this, the tanuki's life was finally saved, but the fate was not much better. This little girl of the Gu family is a pearl in the palm of her hand at home, who doesn't love it? Now seeing that the little girl was injured like this, they all took the tanuki to be angry, tied it with a rope, and threw it into the cage and didn't care.

The doctor rushed over before, only went in to take a look and crawled out of the room, shouting "Hell, hell", Gu's father was furious, and took the doctor and went into his daughter's room. The doctor trembled and pointed to the little girl and said, "Corpse...... The corpse ......", but the corpse did not come for a reason. As a result, he was slapped by Gu's father, and the doctor came back in one breath and said sharply: "Corpse...... Lividity! Miss, she's got corpse spots! ”

Even ordinary people know that corpse spots grow on dead people, which living person can have corpse spots on them? Gu's father saw that although his daughter looked weird, she was obviously still breathing, and she was actually said to be a corpse spot by this quack doctor, and in a fit of anger, he directly threw the person out.

Gu Sihan said that it was a pity that his master went out half a year ago and was nowhere to be found, otherwise he could have invited his old man to come. Later, an elder of the Gu family said that the girl might have attracted evil spirits, and with the mentality of treating a dead horse as a live horse doctor, he invited some famous Taoist priests and gods around him.

As a result, some said that it was lost in the soul, some said that it was possessed by the cat demon, and some directly said that the tanuki was the murderer of her sister, and asked to kill the cat directly.

As a result, as soon as the Dharma was done, the little girl's illness became even more serious. The thing that looked very much like corpse spots began to spread all over her body, and the little girl, who used to have a beautiful little face, was now simply not human, her face was iron-blue, and her body began to rot. This is not an ordinary disease at all, and all doctors are helpless, saying that they can only wait for death.

In desperation, Gu Sihan suddenly remembered that his master had told him that he had an old friend with extremely skilled medical skills who lived in the southern Xinjiang area. Gu Sihan is talented and has an excellent memory, although his master only inadvertently mentioned it at the time, he wrote it down, and even the address of that person was remembered by him.
