I followed the old woman into the yard of her house, and found that there were many strange things hanging on the walls on both sides of the yard, such as wild boar heads, animal skins, snake skins, dried scorpions, dried centipedes and other poisonous insect corpses.... There are also large and small bottles and cans on the windowsill.

The bottles and cans were full of worms, and they were all alive, writhing in them from time to time.

I squinted my eyes and whispered in Cha Sisi's ear, "Sisi, what are you doing here, why are there all these things at home?" ”

"She's the most powerful Gu magician in our village, these are the materials for making Gu..."

I swallowed, this was the first time I had seen a real Gu magician, and I had always heard about it from other people.

Walking to the backyard, there were four rooms inside, and the old woman stood in front of one of the doors and knocked: "Han family boy." ”

Pushing open the door, the old woman glanced at me and Cha Sisi and motioned for us to go in.

As soon as I walked into the room, I smelled a strong smell of herbs, which was very strong. Soon I saw two people sitting on the kang with their upper bodies naked and covered in bandages, they were my second brother and Dawu!

I excitedly shouted "Second Brother", and Second Brother looked at me in surprise: "Akiko ....."

Speaking of God, it is fair, we did not encounter anything good along the way after entering the mountain, but after coming out of the mountain, we were very lucky to be rescued by the people in the Miao village.

Dawu on the side seemed to be seriously injured, his head was wrapped in gauze, half of his eyes were covered, and he called out to me in a hoarse voice, "Qiu Sanye", and then coughed violently.

The old woman glanced at us, and said to the second brother and them with her hands behind her back, "I'll go get medicine for you both." After saying that, he walked out of the room little by little, leaving only the four of us.

Cha Sisi smiled at me and said with a smile: "I didn't expect it to be your brother.... Zhiqiu, you talk, I'll go back first, remember to come over for dinner in the evening. ”

After Cha Sisi left, I also sat down on the kang, and the second brother looked at me with red eyes: "Qiuzi, it's great to see that you are still alive, my heart was cold after you were washed away by the water that day, I didn't think you would survive.....

"I didn't expect to survive at the time, so I was washed away by the lake and saved by the woman and her father just now..... I've been recuperating at her house for the past few days, and I have broken my spine. ”

After a pause, I said again: "Second brother, how did you come down, Baisha is still there..."

Speaking of this, I was slightly stunned, and then I remembered that after encountering the water whirlpool, Yu Yang drowned directly because he couldn't hold his breath in time. And he also grabbed my feet in the water, and in order not to be dragged down by him, I kicked him directly ....

The second brother took out a self-rolling cigarette from the bedside and lit it, and then handed me one as well, which I guess was given to him by the village chief.

Lighting a cigarette, my second brother told me what happened after we got separated.

After I was knocked away by the wood that day, my second brother waited all day on the stone that I couldn't hold onto. In the evening, when the current was less rapid, they jumped back into the water and drifted with the current to a shoal.

However, Bai Sha was not with the second brother at that time, because he dived earlier than us, and he grabbed the low tree by himself. The second brother naturally didn't have the heart to care about Baisha, and after he and Dawu went ashore, they entered the forest again.

Because the flashlight had already run out of power, it was impossible for them to hurry at night, so they found an open space and lit a fire, and waited until dawn before they began to descend the mountain.

But because they didn't know where they were, they didn't go out for two days in a row, and by this time they had already run out of food. During this period, he only relied on Dawu to catch a hare in the forest to satisfy his hunger, and he never ate anything else.

From time to time in the forest, there will be wild beasts, and the injuries on the bodies of the second brother and Dawu are caused by fighting and escaping with wild beasts.

Fortunately, they finally got out of the forest, and they didn't go far and both of them fell on the road exhausted, and were later rescued by the village chief and Zhuo Sang (the old woman) who went into the mountains to collect medicine.

After that, Dawu and his second brother were seriously injured and had been recuperating at Zhuo Sang's home.

The second brother has been very anxious these days, and he can't wait to go into the mountains to find me immediately, but today he finally had the strength to get out of bed, but he didn't expect me to come.

Dawu quipped: "Third Master Qiu, it's quite unfair, in fact, why is it that the one who saved you is a big girl who looks like a water, and the one who saved me and the second master is an old woman who has half a foot in the coffin..."

The second brother slapped Dawu and scolded: "You can't control your mouth with such a serious injury, right?" She is our life-saving benefactor, and you say something rebellious..... Besides, what did I tell you before I came, in this place in Xiangxi, trouble comes out of the mouth, Zhuo Sang will give you a worm Gu in a place you don't know, and you don't know how you died! ”

Dawu hurriedly covered his mouth and nodded vigorously at the second brother.

The second brother snuffed out the cigarette, and then said to me: "You will stay at that girl's house for the past two days, I went to the village chief's house a few days ago to call Master Cao, and he has rushed here with Steward Zhang." The road up the mountain has not been good for the past two days, but it should be there almost tomorrow..... Then give the girl some money. ”

I nodded, and then asked the second brother when he would return to Shaanxi, but the second brother shook his head at me: "Don't worry, when Master Cao and the others come, I will go into the mountain again and take all the things that are not taken out inside." ”

"What's in there that you haven't taken?" I was puzzled, and said, "The tulou has collapsed, and it is impossible to find anything when you go in, so why do you have to go in again?" ”

"When I was in the forest with Dawu, I carried that bag of blood jade as a burden, so I just hid it under a tree, of course I have to go back and get it back now, otherwise wouldn't this trip be in vain?"

"Oh...."

When it was time to eat in the evening, I said goodbye to my second brother and Dawu and returned to Cha Youping's house.

Cha Youping is not at home, it seems that he is going to the village to see someone else's doctor, and only Cha Sisi is cooking at home.

It was only 05 years at that time, and there were no mobile phones and other electronic products, and this was still in the mountains, and there was not even a TV, so there was really nothing to do, so I helped Cha Sisi cook dinner.

"Don't make a mess, just sit there and wait for it to eat...."Cha Sisi waved at me and motioned for me to get out of the kitchen.

I touched my nose and was a little embarrassed, but I really can't cook, and I've been a little master at home since I was a child, pampered, and I've never been in the kitchen at all. Later, I squatted in prison, and I couldn't touch these things inside.

I thought that when they Master Cao came, they would be repaid by Cha Sisi and Cha Youping, so I asked curiously: "Sisi, if one day you suddenly have money, what do you want to do?" ”
