Chapter 325: Bone Boy
On a shallow beach on the south bank of the forbidden water, far away from Yongchang City, an ox cart slowly stopped after a long distance away from the miasma white mist.
Two people and a dog sat at the front of the cart, and at the back was an ebony coffin without a lid.
"It's really strange that this forbidden water really doesn't mean to freeze at all!"
Yu Dayue stood up and looked at it for a moment, then lowered his head and said to the old man Qi who was driving the car: "Grandpa Qi, do we really want to use the coffin as a ship?" Isn't this a ship's coffin? It's bad luck to think about! ”
"Besides, I, Yu Dayue, am a serious shipwright! The so-called 'cutting wood for the boat, cutting the wood for the raft', can't I be allowed to build a new canoe out? Even if it's just a raft, it's done! Sturdy and durable storage! ”
Qi Laohan was frowning at the miasma white mist in front of him, and immediately snorted when he heard this: "Where is this coffin?" Ebony can ward off evil spirits, and isn't it a ready-made canoe when placed on water? Not only can we put the two of us in it, but it is still more than enough to add a few bags and those corpses! ”
"But if you build one from scratch, how tall and thick does it have to be a tree? Can you move it, or can I move it? Even if you can move to the edge of the forbidden water, just rely on this big axe in your hand, and you want to chisel until the Year of the Monkey? ”
"As for the raft, you don't look at what kind of place the forbidden water is, in case it breaks up halfway, we have no place to cry!"
Yu Dayue obediently listened to Qi Laohan's training, and then smiled: "If you want to talk about hunting, I naturally can't compare to Grandpa Qi, but when it comes to shipbuilding, you are not as good as me!" ”
"Building a canoe is not as laborious as you think, you just need to coat the trunk with thick wet mud and burn the place that needs to be dug up with charcoal, and then you can easily hollow out the trunk with time and effort!"
Qi Laohan hummed absentmindedly twice: "Count your ability great!" If you want to build a ship, you can build it yourself, but my old man is impatient to wait any longer! ”
With that, he turned sideways and put an arm into the ebony coffin, as if to take something out of it.
Immediately afterwards, I saw that the old man's face changed sharply, and he shook his arm vigorously, but he pulled out a hemp rope from the coffin, and the other end of the hemp rope was tied to a white bone.
This white bone is quite short, it should be a child who is only a few years old when he was born, not only does it look terrifying, but because the bones of the small arms and legs are white and smooth, it makes people inexplicably feel a little pity.
Qi Laohan grabbed the hemp rope, took the white bone child in front of him and looked at it twice, and couldn't help but say angrily: "Why are you again?" It's endless, isn't it? Really, my old man is a good-natured man? ”
The white bone child was tied to the cervical vertebrae by hemp rope, dangling in front of the old man, grinding against each other with bone joints around his body, making a clicking sound.
What is particularly frightening is that this white-boned child turned out to be alive, and between the opening and closing of his chin, he said word by word to Qi Laohan: "Grandpa give me wheat to eat!" ”
"Which one is your grandfather? Don't misidentify your relatives! ”
Qi Laohan scolded casually, but he didn't really get angry when he looked at his face, but turned his hand and threw it to Yu Dayue: "What are you doing in a daze, don't you look at your brother well?" ”
Yu Dayue subconsciously held the white bone child in his arms, and his expression collapsed: "Grandpa Qi, this matter is not bad for me!" ”
"The first time we caught this little thing stealing the corpse wheat to eat, I dismantled it in front of your old man, found a place to dig a pit and buried it, and the next day it came alive again!"
"The second time, I smashed it to pieces, threw it into a dry well four or five miles away, and pressed a wooden plank on the mouth of the well, and it found the same door."
"On the most recent occasion, I tied it with hemp rope and put it in the baggage, tied the mouth of the baggage strongly, tied it with a big stone and sank it into the river, which ...... It's only been a few days, why did you follow it again! ”
Yu Dayue looked down at the white bone child in his arms, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot: "This little thing is too difficult to kill, right?" Or...... Grandpa Qi, can you use those glowing hairs? ”
Qi Laohan immediately glared: "You can say it!" Why don't you use your own coffin nails? ”
"It's just that it's so hungry that it has to steal two grains of wheat to eat, and you haven't done anything hurtful, so you can't tolerate it, and you have to put it to death? This heart is also vicious......"
Hearing this, Bai Gu'er immediately turned his head to Yu Dayue, and still spoke word by word, listening to the tone of the voice was quite happy: "Brother give me wheat to eat!" ”
Yu Dayue is also cheap, obviously he hates his teeth itching, and when he was called by his brother, his face immediately turned from cloudy to sunny: "Wow! At the beginning, my sister was such a small one, and she threw herself into my arms and shouted that she was hungry......"
Qi Laohan didn't care about listening to this guy's feelings and remembrances, but stood up quickly, bent down and went to the coffin to grope for a while, and then took out two little white sheep from one in one hand.
The two little white sheep were grabbed by his neck, but they didn't realize it, their mouths kept opening and closing, and they were chewing a few grains of wheat with a blue and black luster.
Qi Laohan could see clearly, although the two little white sheep had fur, they only had teeth and bones in their mouths, and there was no flesh and blood on their tongues, and they were obviously not serious creatures.
He couldn't help but snort, turned his head and glared at the white bone child and said, "Where did you find a job herding sheep?" It's just a matter of stealing food by yourself, and I even brought two small ones! ”
Hearing this, the white bone child turned his head to Qi Laohan again, a little more affectionate than he treated Yu Dayue: "Grandpa give me wheat grains to eat!" ”
Now even the old man Qi has no temper.
At the beginning, his grandson was also such a small one, often hugging his trouser leg tightly, crying for his father and mother, and asking for meat to eat......
Well, later the child didn't cry or make trouble, but he was either digging a pit in the back mountain all day long, or sharpening his knife silently in the front yard, which made people suspense when he looked at it.
Old Man Qi is coarse and stupid, if he hadn't invited Meng Fuzi to teach, he really didn't dare to imagine what his grandson would become......
"Whew! What a sin! What the hell is this Ulju place, the doll can't live in peace even if he dies! ”
Qi Laohan scolded, threw the two little white sheep off the ox cart, picked up a square bucket from the ebony coffin, and jumped off the ground.
The wheat in the square bucket is the corpse wheat obtained from the coffin Lao Suo, the grain is full and compact, but it has an abnormal blue and black color.
Qi Laohan stretched out his hand and grabbed a large handful, stuffed it into Yu Dayue's hand, and did not forget to scold: "We don't lack this half-bucket corpse wheat, don't be stingy, you don't look like a brother!" ”
With that, he grabbed a handful from Fang Dou again and threw it to the two little white sheep at his feet.
After doing this, Qi Laohan held Fang Dou in his arms and cautiously walked towards the direction of the forbidden water.
The closer he got to those legendary miasma white mist, the more solemn his expression became, as if he was walking alone in the mountains, being watched by countless jackals, tigers and leopards.
When he crossed a certain invisible boundary, a strong warning suddenly rose in Qi Laohan's heart, and it seemed that he would die in the mouth of the beast if he took another step.
He immediately stopped, exuding a faint tiger intent on his body, and shouted in a low voice: "The person who crosses the river sacrifices the corpse wheat, and please make it convenient for you!" ”
Before he could finish speaking, he had already picked up a few grains of corpse wheat and threw them into the mist in front of him.
Suddenly, those miasma white mist surged violently, and something invisible seemed to whizz through it, and those few grains of corpse wheat suddenly disappeared before they even had time to land.
It's just strange to say, the fog that stopped in front of Qi Laohan actually thinned a little, and even the malicious snooping eyes in the fog disappeared a lot.
Old Man Qi's tense expression was immediately relaxed: "This corpse wheat is really effective!" ”
Yu Dayue, who was in the back, couldn't rest assured, hugged the white bone child and led the two little white sheep to follow, and his face was also happy when he saw this: "It's done!" ”
