Chapter 129: The Past Is Like the Wind
As soon as the forbidden was issued, all the ghosts surrendered, and I was confident that these walking corpses would not hurt me in the slightest, so I rushed forward two steps, raised my dagger and stuck it in the abdomen of a walking corpse, which fell straight to the ground.
At this moment, Shui Xiaoliu looked back at me and hurried towards the man.
The man saw Shui Xiaoliu running towards him, scolded viciously, turned around and ran, Shui Xiaoliu stopped in place, moved lightly under his feet, kicked up the loess block on the ground, and the loess block smashed on the man's back with a burst of wind.
The man groaned in pain and fell to the ground.
I swung the dagger from side to side, killing with all my might, but when the man fell, the stick was taken off, and the walking corpse fell straight to the ground.
I ran to him in a few steps, kicked him hard, he wailed, turned around, showed a bitter face, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said to me: "Little brother spare my life, I just want to mix food and earn some extra money, I killed all Goryeo sticks, there are no Chinese!" ”
The more I listened, the more angry I became, "They're not human?" ”
So, he kicked him again, but the man pretended to be in pain and rolled on the spot, but Shui Xiaoliu didn't look at this person, his brows were furrowed, and he looked behind.
I grabbed the dagger and tried to kill him with a knife, but the man picked up the stick again while rolling, and laughed at me, and was about to swing the stick in his hand, but out of nowhere, an evil fire struck and shot straight at the man in front of me.
I was about to turn back, but I saw that the man was already on fire, and I didn't see the struggle and scream, and the body was almost burned.
I followed Shui Xiaoliu's gaze and saw a burly middle-aged man, walking through the ravine, unable to see his face clearly, only feeling that this person's walking posture was very weird.
"Hmph, ghost spell!" Shui Xiaoliu said.
"Ghost Charm?"
Ghost charm, I tried to think about it in my mind over and over again, but I never had an impression of the word ghost charm, I looked at the approaching figure in the distance, and asked Shui Xiaoliu suspiciously: "What the hell is going on?" Who is that man? ”
"I don't know." Shui Xiaoliu looked at the lonely shadow in the distance and said slowly.
The man got closer and closer, and the sky was slightly bright, and it was only then that he could see his face, but apart from his taller stature, he was no different from ordinary people, and the only way to recognize him in the crowd was the strange white hair on his head.
Shui Xiaoliu saw that he had come to his side, took a step forward, he also stopped, and the two looked at each other, like old friends for many years, and like enemies for generations.
"I am good at things, and I can break into these seven unique ditches without Evergrande Shouyin!" The man glared at Shui Xiaoliu angrily, and his tone was low.
"You don't wear a longevity seal, and you walk through the ghosts every day, I should have thought that it was you, and you can use talismans to such a state in the world today, but you really can't find a second person."
After Shui Xiaoliu finished speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled.
The strange man looked at the dried corpse shell that was about to burn out in front of him, and said angrily: "This person has done a lot of evil and made ill-gotten gains, and he has long wanted to clean him up. ”
"Decades have passed, and my temper has changed a lot, but I don't see any old age!"
After hearing this, the man waved his hand and asked Shui Xiaoliu: "What are you doing here, except for the wicked people in the Seven Peerless Mountains, they are evil beasts, but there are no Heavenly Spirit Treasures you are looking for!" ”
"Did Ma Zhong send a little girl a few days ago?" I saw that he was familiar with the things in the villa, so I asked.
The man frowned and said to me, "That's the granddaughter of the chief helmsman Ma Di, who is recuperating from her injuries in the Seven Peerless Mountains. This is a solemn secret, and you shouldn't have talked about it, but now that the villa has no leader, it is already a plate of scattered sand, if it is not a big deal, go back early! ”
He shook his head, but he couldn't hide the resentment in his eyes.
After the man finished speaking, he touched the cloth bag on his waist, took out a charm, handed it to Shui Xiaoliu with both hands, and sighed lowly: "The grace of saving lives at the beginning cannot be repaid, this is the Taiyi Ming Road Talisman, when there is no way ahead, just urge it." I still have to pick up other people who have entered the mountains, and I can't send them far, so I will leave! ”
I looked at his Xiao Suo's back and asked Shui Xiaoliu: "That person has a really strange temper, but his methods are quite clever!" Walking through the ghosts all day long, not a single leaf is touched! ”
Shui Xiaoliu narrowed his eyes, looked at the sun, and whispered to me, "Let's go!" ”
The wind and sand have blown away the marks of the time when they came, the snowy peaks ahead are proud, the sun is rising, and new hope may also be a precursor to destruction.
Although the man's temper was strange, his heart was not bad, I was curious, and asked Shui Xiaoliu: "Who is that person?" ”
"He was originally in the banner of the Manchurian, when the situation was turbulent, the family was defeated, but he painted a good painting, I saved his life by chance, I saw that he was excellent in painting, and sent him to the" Xuan Zhenzi "to learn the method of drawing talismans."
This way, my face was full of wind and dust, in order to pass the boring journey, I kept asking this and that, Shui Xiaoliu shook his head and did not answer.
The endless barren ridge of the Seven Peerless Ditch can not see the breath of life, although it is not as vast as the desert and the sea, but if the weak-willed person walks in the meantime, it is really all lost, and the seven feelings are rooted.
I saw that Shui Xiaoliu didn't speak, and asked helplessly: "I see that person is good at drawing talismans, how can he be saved by you?" ”
"It's all from the past, don't mention it!" After Shui Xiaoliu finished speaking, he still walked by himself.
I followed him closely behind his ass and asked, "Then talk about the past, it's better than doing this, I'm panicking, and it's not good for you to stick to your teeth." ”
Shui Xiaoliu stopped, smiled, and said, "Okay, I'll tell you about the past!" ”
It turned out that this strange man, whose original name was Yehnara Bairi, was an out-and-out Manchurian, and his ancestors followed Nurhachi to fight the world and eat imperial food for generations. But in his grandfather's generation, the family has been defeated. In his generation, he was even poorer, his parents failed to go to the sea to do business, became depressed and became ill, and he died very early, and he guarded an old house with four walls in a daze every day.
On this day, he was secretly hesitating at home, eating sweet potatoes for dinner or stick noodles at the bottom of the jar, and was just about to go out, when he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
He walked to the door in a few steps, thinking that he was forced to pay a debt, rubbed his hands, but did not dare to open the door.
Suddenly, I heard an old man's voice: "Are you at home during the day?" ”
After listening to it, he wondered in his heart, and listened to the voice like an old Li Tou from the next village, but how did he come to his house for this meal?
He opened the door tentatively, poked his head out, and was about to ask what was going on, but his eyes lit up, and he saw that there was a big girl standing next to Lao Li Tou, who was his daughter, Li Nihuang.
Without waiting for Bai Ri to speak, the old man dragged the door open and pushed him to the back room, Bai Ri didn't know why, he couldn't close his mouth in shock, and asked in a trembling voice: "Uncle, you see I don't have anything to eat here, I don't owe you ......"
Lao Li Tou'er frowned after hearing this: "Bai Ri, I think you are a good person, although you don't have any skills, but as long as you are good to my daughter, choose a day and get married to the two of you!" ”
Bai Ri couldn't believe his ears, how could a pie-like good thing fall from the sky, how could he find his head, and hurriedly asked: "Your daughter is so beautiful, what kind of thing are you looking for, and you will suffer a lot from me, a poor ghost." ”
After speaking, he glanced at Li Nihuang and swallowed his saliva.
Lao Li Tou'er sighed and said: "Hey, I don't want to marry my daughter to you, but I can't support myself these days, what do I use to support my daughter, all the young people in the tunzi can run, you kid is quite sound, don't be cheap!" ”
After listening to this, Bai Ri was overjoyed in his heart, looked at the shy Li Nihuang, and couldn't wait to pounce on it immediately.
A few days later, I don't know where to get a donkey, and happily came to Li Nihuang's house, which is considered to be a kiss, the donkey carried the bride, swaying all the way to his own house, and deliberately stewed the pot dishes during the day, which is considered to be married.
But the joy of getting married was overwhelmed by the embarrassing life within a few days, looking at his wife who was getting thinner day by day, it was not a taste in his heart during the day, but the seven-foot man couldn't even support his daughter-in-law, and he was ruthless in his heart, so he wanted to go out to make more money and let his daughter-in-law live a good life.
left half a cylinder of stick noodles for Li Nihuang, and after explaining everything, he rode a donkey out of the tunzi, but he has been gone for two years, and he has made a little money selling paintings and writing outside.
However, he didn't know that his wife was looking forward to his return every day, and the stick noodles in the jar were also seeing fewer and fewer day by day, so in order not to let outsiders laugh at the daytime, he would rather be hungry than go back to his parents' house for a meal.
For more than three months in a blink of an eye, Lao Li had no news of his daughter, thinking that the young couple was doing well and forgot about their own home. But my heart is really happy, and I am ready to go to see my daughter in the afternoon.
But as soon as Lao Li Touer entered the house, he chuckled in his heart, and the old tears were rampant, and he saw that his daughter was starving to death on the kang. It's dog days, I don't know how many days I've been dead, and the house stinks.
Lao Li Tou'er swept his daughter up with a kang with a handful of snot and tears, and had no money to buy a coffin, nor did he have the strength to bury it, so the mat was rolled and thrown to the top of the kang.
Two years later, he returned home with the same donkey he had ridden in his daytime, humming a little song in his mouth, and tied the donkey to the pear tree in front of his house.
Seeing that it was almost time to have dinner, there was no smoke at home, and my heart was sour, it seemed that Li Nihuang was really miserable at home alone, and he must not have opened the pot again, thinking of this, he took a step towards the house.
He was about to stretch out his hand to open the door, but he saw his wife come out, and there was no light in the house, so he couldn't see his wife's expression clearly, but he saw that his wife's cheeks were sunken, and he hugged his wife and cried bitterly.
His wife helped him into the house and asked him to sit on the kang for a while, saying that he had not come back in the past few years, and that he must have suffered a lot outside, so he had to boil water for cooking during the day.
Seeing his wife so virtuous in the daytime, he didn't know what it was like, and he sat on the kang, which was full of dust, and when he touched it, he realized that there was no mat on the kang.
Bai Ri was about to take out the earrings he had bought from the town and give them to his wife, but when he looked in, he found that his wife had no head, and the fire under the stove was also a miserable green.
Bai Ri swallowed his saliva, thinking that he was dazzled, shook his head, and then looked at the headless, but his wife lowered her head and burned the fire just now and didn't see it clearly.
But it always feels strange to sit in the room during the day, his back is cool without wind, and his hair stands up unconsciously, and there is always a feeling of unsteadiness in his heart, he takes the pair of earrings and slowly walks towards his wife, but he sees that his wife is dragging her head, combing her hair and painting her eyebrows.
