Chapter Seventy-Five: Don't Let the Wind Blow Your Hair
The old Uncle Liu sighed, shook his head and said, "We don't know either." As he spoke, he glanced at me, then at Qingzi who was sitting there behind me, and said apologetically, "The little brother and the little girl weren't scared, right?" ”
I smiled and shook my head, "It's okay, there were a lot of strange things in the past." ”
The old Uncle Liu followed with a smile and said, "The young man is good, he is quite bold." ”
The glasses trembled: "En...... Brother Benefactor, you can still laugh, I'm terrified! ”
At this time, I heard the third uncle snort coldly and said, "It's not a weapon!" Then he went to examine the three monster corpses. Old Uncle Liu also went to help, and tied strips of colorful cloth to the three strange corpses together.
I glanced at it a few times and recognized that the corpse's throat should be Chenzhou sand, and the yellow talisman was the famous Chenzhou talisman. Originally, it should be enough to seal a few strange corpses in this way, but for some reason there was a change. I pondered for a while, wondering if it was because the old witch was nearby.
Just thinking about it, the third uncle and the old Uncle Liu carried the corpse to the edge of the big tree, and the glasses came over and said in a low voice: "Alas, you scared me just now, aren't you afraid?" ”
I was thinking about it, but I didn't answer, I just smiled. The glasses said again: "Old Uncle Liu said that my third uncle is a corpse chaser, this ...... It also sounds a little too mysterious. ”
I heard it a little strangely, and said, "You don't know? "It is said that since he is called the third uncle, the relationship should be quite close, and it stands to reason that it should not be unclear.
The glasses said: "When I was a child, I heard that my third uncle dealt with corpses, but I didn't know that his old man was a corpse chaser. Speaking of this, he added, "I used to think that chasing corpses and all that was a lie." ”
I couldn't help but look at him a few more times, but I didn't say anything. Judging by the nerdy look of this person, he may indeed be a student and don't know much about it.
While he was talking, I heard Uncle Liu greet us over there and tell us to go over and roast the fire. As a result, the glasses were called, so I naturally went back to Qingzi's side, sat with her, and said, "Sleepy or not?" ”
In fact, even if a cultivator does not sleep for a few days and nights, it is generally not a big problem. However, Qingzi has always had the habit of going to bed on time, whether it was in Tancheng or another courtyard, when it was time, he went into the room to sleep.
Listen to her: "Sort of." ”
I saw that she was a little sleepy-eyed, and knew that she had slept a lot since she was injured, and my heart was slightly sour, and I said, "Then you can sleep on me for a while." ”
She ignored me and sat there with her knees crossed. I moved to her side, as close as I could. The mountains and forests were very quiet, and from time to time there was a mountain wind passing through, blowing the leaves whirring, and the rain stars flew down, hitting the face wet. The glasses were called to sit by the fire, and they were whispering something, probably because the third uncle was asking about the origin of me and Aoko, and I didn't listen carefully.
After a while, I suddenly felt a slight sinking of my shoulder, and I saw her leaning on my shoulder, already asleep. I didn't dare to move, for fear of waking her up. Looking over slightly, I saw that she pressed her hat to her knees, her black braids hanging down on her chest, her rosy lips pursed slightly, and her long eyelashes trembling in the wind.
There were a few strands of hair on her forehead that were a little messy by the wind, brushing her fair cheeks, and I was afraid that she would itch, so I carefully reached out and brushed the hair behind her ear.
The night is quiet, and I only feel joy and tranquility in my heart.
Until the sky was bright, I suddenly felt a slight movement of my shoulders, knowing that she was awake, I closed my eyes and pretended to be asleep. This dead woman's eldest lady has a temper, and she likes to hold it the most on weekdays, but she can't let her get off the stage.
After a while, I felt my shoulders loosen. I closed my eyes for a long time, then I opened them, stretched, yawned, turned my head to look at her, and said, "I'm sleepy, and before I know it, I'm asleep." You didn't sleep? ”
Aoko didn't look away, put her hat on, and ignored me.
I was secretly happy in my heart, but I was serious on my face. At this time, the third uncle and others also woke up one after another. I heard Uncle Liu shouting: "Let's go." ”
I answered, stood up with Qingzi, and saw that the third uncle covered the heads of the three strange corpses with a black cloth, wrapped them around with a shroud, and then picked up a strange corpse and carried it on his shoulder. The old Uncle Liu immediately picked up the second one, and then listened to the third uncle's fair words: "Su Qin, what are you still doing in a daze?" ”
I saw that the glasses were stunned, his face was pale, and cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and I immediately understood that the third uncle was asking him to carry the corpse, and I couldn't help but laugh secretly. whispered to Qingzi: "Then why doesn't the third uncle use the corpse expulsion technique?" "The mountain road here is relatively flat, and it shouldn't be a problem to drive away corpses with corpse expulsion.
Qingzi don't look over his head and don't come to deal with it.
I was secretly happy in my heart, and when I looked around, I saw that the glasses had been severely reprimanded by the third uncle, and then trembling to carry the corpse. It's just that he was already thin and weak, and he probably hadn't done any heavy work, coupled with psychological fear, his legs went weak as soon as he got on his back, and he fell to the ground, almost not throwing the body out.
When he boarded, he attracted a reprimand from the third uncle.
At this time, I can see that the reason why these three uncles don't use the corpse expulsion technique seems to be to deliberately toss him, a junior. I didn't intervene, I just watched the excitement. In the end, it was the old Uncle Liu who helped and supported the corpse's waist for the glasses, which can be regarded as carrying it.
The third uncle came over with the corpse on his back, nodded at me, and said, "Little brother, go to the village with the little girl to sit down." ”
I nodded in agreement, and saw the three of them carrying the corpses on their backs, following behind with Aoko.
The dark clouds of last night weighed down all night, and this morning the fog finally cleared, and the sky cleared, and the sun came out in a short time. It's just that in this deep mountain and dense forest, the ancient trees are towering, covering the sky and the sun, and the sunlight can only leak in a little, which is still quite gloomy.
All the way through, there are rolling mountains. And the further you go, the more barren it becomes. I know that this place is located on the edge of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, with extremely high altitudes, dangerous peaks, and countless strange and deep caves hidden in the mountains.
Old Uncle Liu looked back and said that this large mountain range has been barren and inaccessible since ancient times. I laughed and said, "Earlier, it was called the Wild Ghost Land. ”
Old Uncle Liu said yes again and again, and said with a smile: "Little brother knows a lot." ”
Walking on the mountain road, you can see several peaks rising in the distance, clouds and mist, in this deep mountain, mysterious, no one knows what is inside. By about noon, the terrain had flattened a little, and fields had appeared on both sides, and they knew that they were not far from the village they had spoken.
Soon after, I saw a high mountain in the distance. The corpse that carried the glasses all the way, although his face was still quite bad, but he probably got used to it, and the sun was shining at this time, so he finally had some energy, and turned around and shouted at me: "Brother Benefactor, my house is almost there." ”
I looked at his expression, a little happy, and a little worried, knowing that he had not returned for many years, presumably because of his homesickness. Looking at him, I can't help but think of the village where I grew up, and I don't know when I will go back to see it. It's just that even if he goes back, the third uncle is no longer there. I couldn't help but feel gloomy, and I lost any interest for a while.
I heard Qingzi next to him suddenly ask, "What kind of place is that?" ”
I looked back and saw that one of her jade onion fingers was pointing to a high mountain in the southeast corner. I was stunned for a moment, and was about to say "I don't know", but when the words came to my lips, I came back to my senses.
With Qingzi's temperament, how could he ask me the name of a mountain for no reason? Besides, how could I know what even her learned eldest lady didn't know.
I understood that she saw that I was sad in my heart, and she spoke to divert my thoughts, and her heart warmed, and she couldn't help laughing. Just as I was about to speak, I saw Qingzi press her hat, don't turn around, and don't pay attention to me anymore.
After walking for a while, I went around a forest, and I saw a large flat land in front of me, surrounded by lofty mountains and mountains, and I had already arrived at the princess's tomb.
It's the first time I've heard a village named a grave, and it's a bit strange. As a result, Qingzi said again, "If you don't learn, you can't do anything." After listening to her, I realized that since ancient times, there have been mountain villages named after the word tomb, but there are not many.
