At this time, the middle-aged woman, Aunt Wang, the old beggar's neighbor, brought some ordinary herbs for the treatment of bruises from her own house, while the old beggar took some strips of cloth and applied some herbs brought by Aunt Wang to the wound of the stone.
After some simple bandaging, the old beggar was on the bed with a look of pity on his face, the little face was dirty with stones, and his hands kept caressing the little head of the stone, and at the same time he reproached: "You stone, when grandpa is not there in the future, you must be obedient, don't do such a dangerous thing again, your parents left early, if something happens to you again, how will I, an old man, live, do you want grandpa to worry about death, you are a coward." ”
"His grandfather, if it's okay, I'll go back first, if there's anything you need, you can squeak. At this time, Li Tianze and Long Ling, who were standing in the room with their heads sideways, immediately turned around and said to the old beggar.
"Thanks to your Aunt Wang this time, I don't know how to thank you this bad old man. The old beggar stood up and said gratefully.
"You old beggar, what do you say, it's all from the neighborhood, so don't be polite, who hasn't asked for anything yet. ”
The aunt paused slightly, then turned her eyes to the stone lying on the bed, and said with a smile: "Stone, you must listen to your grandfather's words, don't be naughty anymore, let your grandfather worry so much." ”
"Thank you, Aunt Wang, the stone will never do this again. The stone lying on the bed seemed to know his naughtiness, which made the old beggar and the others worried, and he also said with some self-reproach.
"All right, I'm leaving, old beggar. ”
"Then Aunt Wang, you go slowly. ”
After speaking, when Aunt Wang went out again, she looked at Li Tianze and Long Ling again, and from her eyes, Li Tianze was able to complicate a little, and then the old beggar was about to send this Aunt Wang, but Aunt Wang refused.
"Let the two of you laugh, I don't have anything to entertain you here. The old beggar saw Aunt Wang leave, and then turned around from the door, Tian Ze and Long Ling were so silently busy with Aunt Wang, and they couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
"It doesn't matter. Li Tianze didn't have anything, while Long Ling was a grandfather and grandson with some sympathy on his face.
"Then please wait for me a little longer, the space in the house is small, and it's not very comfortable, let's talk outside the house for a while. ”
"Okay. Li Tianze said lightly.
After speaking, the old beggar walked to the bed side of the stone, and then took out the roast chicken that Li Tianze and Long Ling bought for him from a cloth bag, and then handed it to the stone, and the stone A greasy and fragrant roast chicken appeared in front of him, and immediately his eyes lit up, licked his little tongue, and asked: "Grandpa, where did you come from the roast chicken?"
"These two big brothers and sisters bought it for me, you can eat it quickly. ”
As soon as the old beggar finished speaking, the little stone could not bear it anymore, and took the roast chicken and began to eat it in a big gulp.
"Eat slowly, don't choke, you eat first, I'll go out and talk to these two big brothers and big sisters about something. ”
"Okay, grandpa, go ahead. The stone replied with a whining as he ate.
The old beggar stroked the little head of the stone a few times, and then came to Li Tianze and Long Ling, and said, "Let's go, let's talk outside the house." ”
After speaking, the old beggar took Li Tianze and Long Ling to a stone table, and the three of them sat down.
"The woman you're looking for is no longer there. ”
When the old beggar said this, Li Tianze and Long Ling were very surprised, and at the same time very angry, didn't this old beggar understand that he was a scoundrel and deceived the two of them.
"I said, you old beggar, you can't be playing with us, right?" The taste of being deceived was very uncomfortable, and Li Tianze asked a little angrily.
"Young man, don't worry, I didn't mean to deceive you. The old beggar hurriedly explained.
"You didn't deceive us, then you said that this matter is not something that can be interceded in one or two sentences, what does this mean? And if this woman is gone, you just told us no at that time, and let us follow you, after so many twists and turns, and delayed for so long, what do you mean?" Li Tianze then asked.
"I'm not lying, this Martha's identity is indeed very special, and I don't know why you are looking for such a woman, no, not a person, but an evil witch god who has been dead for tens of thousands of years. When the old beggar said this, he obviously lowered his voice involuntarily, as if he was afraid of being heard.
"What are you talking about, you have been dead for tens of thousands of years! How is this possible!" After hearing such a news, Long Ling was particularly shocked and incredulous.
"Evil witch god, old beggar, you won't make up a legend to prevaricate us, will you?" asked Li Tianze, who also couldn't believe it.
"What I said is true, didn't you ask a lot of people before, but did those people say something to you? At that time, I also happened to hear you asking about Martha, and I felt a little strange. In other words, the woman you are looking for is indeed no longer in the world, and in our place, everyone is reluctant to talk about this Martha, if the city lord or some city guards hear it, it will be arrested and imprisoned, all things about Martha are taboo in our Gula Desert, and you outsiders must not know some of our taboos and rules here. Tian Ze and Long Ling both had some doubts about what they said, and the old beggar hurriedly explained.
The beggar's face, Li Tianze, who was a little suspicious, felt that the old beggar was not lying. And some of the situations are indeed as the old beggar said, the reactions of himself and Long Ling when they asked passers-by about those passers-by before can show that this Martha is indeed a taboo in this desert, and as for Martha is an evil witch god who has been dead for tens of thousands of years, it is not impossible.
How long did it take for the woman Long Ling to die before she came back to life, but since Long Ling and this Martha were enemies of the same period, it is possible that Long Ling also died for such a long time, but these speculations can only be established when things are really as the old beggar said.
"Old beggar, what basis is there for me to dispel some of our doubts, old beggar. Li Tianze still asked with some suspicion.
"Impossible, how is it possible, is it, I have ...... , old beggar, you lie, you lie!"
When Long Ling heard this, she suddenly felt a little uncontrollable, and there were some precursors of madness, which made the old beggar a little worried, and asked, "Your friend, are you okay?"
"It's fine. ”
Saying that, Li Tianze turned his head, and Ling said, "Long Ling, things haven't been figured out yet, don't be too frustrated." ”
Hearing Li Tianze's comfort, Long Ling stabilized a little and said, "Old beggar, what do you mean when you say that Martha is an evil witch god?"
"This is a legend of our Gula Desert, it is said that tens of thousands of years ago, there was a woman named Martha, this woman was the illegitimate daughter of the leader of the Wu tribe, and she followed her mother since she was a child. When this Martha grew up, she learned a powerful set of witchcraft from someone, and with the practice of night and day, this Martha eventually became a strong witchcraftman, and everyone knew about it in the Gula Desert at that time. At first, this Martha had a gentle temperament, and she got along with people in harmony, but I don't know what kind of stimulation she was given later, and her temperament changed greatly. Later, I don't know where I learned a set of evil and cruel witchcraft, and I don't know why, she slaughtered the lives of many people in the Golden City at that time, and carried out inhumane refining, and these refined residents finally became puppets who only obeyed her orders. At that time, the residents of the Golden City, as well as some people in the surrounding area, were panicked and everyone was in danger. Since then, Martha is no longer the previous Martha, and has become a generation of evil demon gods in the Gula Desert, which is terrifying. ”
The old beggar talked eloquently, and Li Tianze and Long Ling were also shocked when they heard it, but Long Ling couldn't help muttering: "Witch, Martha is indeed a witch, but how did she become an evil demon god, if all this is true, then wouldn't I ......?"
"Actually, these are just legends, and I don't know if they're true or not, but Martha is a taboo that we can't mention here, and it's true. And this Martha was also self-inflicted in the end, according to legend, she was finally killed by a very powerful passer, but the body was stolen, I don't know if it was true. ”
The old beggar paused slightly, and then said: "If you don't believe my old beggar, you can ask others, but don't ask in front of others, you should give people some benefits at night and ask secretly, our Golden City has clear rules that it is not allowed to talk about these things blatantly, but there are also some people who take risks for money." Also, in the west of the Gula Desert, that is, next to the Wulin Oasis adjacent to the Bone and E tribes, there was a witch temple built specifically for Martha, the evil witch god, which is now only a ruin, but now because of official regulations, no one is allowed to enter, and violators are all imprisoned, so it is banned, and no one dares to worship or enter half a step. ”
Hearing this, Li Tianze felt that what the old beggar said was right, but it didn't look like he was deceiving himself, but he still had to confirm it again.
It's just that after listening to this, Long Ling obviously felt that the expression of the whole person was very complicated, with frustration, resentment, fear, etc., and some bad emotions were mixed in.
"I told you everything I knew, and I think it's worth the two roast chickens and sugar gourds, and don't talk about my old beggar deceiving people. The old beggar said as if he had been wronged.
"Well, old beggar, I believe you for now, but I need to verify it further. Li Tianze said slowly.
"Then it's up to you, anyway, I have said everything I should have said, and I will tell the truth, and I have a clear conscience. ”
......
Regarding Martha's matter, whether it is really as the old beggar said, Li Tianze also plans to ask someone to check it at night to confirm it. However, what he is most worried about now is Long Ling, if things are really like this, then whether Long Ling will be able to accept it, but for a while, people have to worry.
