Chapter 17: I am the one who burned
I wiped my eyes, trying to make sure I wasn't hallucinating.
But if you look at it again, Mother Ganlu is gone.
I didn't think about it, and went back to the house with the water in my hand.
Cui Xiangpo held three chopsticks in her hand and asked me with a calm face, "Let you help scoop up water, so slow?" ”
I was about to say that I met Ganlu's mother, but I saw her snatch the bowl from my hand and say, "I have time to wait for you, but it doesn't mean that the victim has time to wait for you." ”
I said there would be no next time.
Cui Xiangpo's face looked better.
She first bowed to the lit three incense sticks, then held the chopsticks with her hand, and whispered: "Blocking your way, blocking your bridge, whether you are drowned, hanged or burned...... Don't embarrass this girl. I will dedicate you some water and rice today, and please leave Susu! ”
After speaking, she stood her chopsticks in the clear water bowl.
As soon as I stood up, I saw the three chopsticks standing straight in the bowl.
Cui Xiangpo stepped forward and touched Ganlu's head, then frowned and shook her head at her grandmother.
Seeing this, I whispered to my grandmother if this matter is not easy to solve?
Grandma couldn't tell.
Cui Xiangpo picked up the chopsticks in the bowl.
Just when she finished reading and was about to set up the chopsticks for the second time, the nectar on the bed suddenly opened her eyes!
She quickly got up, waved her hand and smashed the bowl next to the bed, and hurried outside.
Seeing this, Cui Xiangpo raised her eyebrows and ordered, "Follow her to have a look!" Look where she's gone! ”
When the people in the house heard this, they hurriedly followed out.
Cui Xiangpo and I put away the unburned incense before following along.
When he arrived, he saw Manna pacing back and forth by the river, repeating in his mouth, "Here, that thing here......"
Manna stepped forward and reached out to pull Manna back, but was knocked off by Manna Hand.
"It's right here......"
"Girl, what's this!" Manna asked.
Manna didn't answer him, and kept repeating the words in her mouth.
Cui Xiangpo stretched out her hand and asked me for a stick of incense, and after lighting it with a match, I saw black smoke coming out of the incense heads.
She looked solemn, lowered her eyes at the place where Ganlu walked, and said to Ganlu's father: "Xiangsheng black smoke, it is estimated that the thing buried here is something that is pestering your girl, take the guy here and dig it up." ”
Manna nodded, and then went and called a few villagers to bring the guys over.
I, Cui Xiangpo, and my grandmother stood at the outermost part of the crowd, unable to see what was inside.
It didn't take long for them to stop digging.
"What's in this bag? Why does it stink so much. One of the people inside said disgustedly.
"Won't you just take it out and take a look?"
As soon as the words fell, several people walked out carrying a heavy urea bag.
When they opened the urea bag and took out the contents inside, many of the people present were taken aback!
What it contained was a skinned, gnawed corpse covered in holes!
When I saw the corpse, I got goosebumps all over my body, and a chill spread from the soles of my feet to my whole body.
The man who was stripped of his skin by a group of snakes in my dream last night is what he looks like now!
"There's something in there!"
Some of the people who were not frightened saw that there was still a bulge under the bag, so they picked up the bag and poured out the contents.
It's a group of half-skinned dead snakes.
I didn't show much fear of the dead snakes.
I just feel my scalp tingle, and even ...... I'm worried that I'll be like this one day.
No, I'm not a snake.
I am human.
I wandered away from my thoughts and turned my head to look at my grandmother.
Grandma looked at the group of dead snakes with a solemn expression.
After a moment's pause, she opened her mouth and ordered, "Hurry up and pour oil on these dead snakes!" ”
In this regard, some people asked curiously: "Aren't all these snakes dead?" Why burn it? ”
Grandma said with a cold face: "Have you forgotten what happened eighteen years ago!" Why don't you go burn it yet! ”
As soon as these words came out, the faces of those curious people suddenly changed.
He who has fire in his pocket, and he who has oil in his pocket.
After the flame is lit, it is centered on the dead snake, and a ring of fire is burned with a 'whew'.
The smell of burnt wafted from inside.
As it got into my nose, for some reason, my back started to ache, like someone had started a fire in my back.
Cui Xiangpo was the first to notice my abnormality, held me and whispered, "Tan Jing, what's wrong with you?" ”
It was like hundreds of people were crying, and my head was about to explode.
My consciousness was in a mess, and I didn't know what I was yelling at, "Put out the fire!" Don't keep burning! You're burning me! ”
Ganlu, who was standing by the river, grinned, "Tan Jing, you have a seizure!" Look! The snake girl has a seizure! ”
"Gan Jianhua, why don't you hurry up and take the nectar away! Also, put out the fire first! After my grandmother finished speaking, she hurriedly ran to me, held my hand and said, "Jingjing, why are you ......?"
The crying in my ears grew louder and louder, and I couldn't hear what my grandmother was talking about.
Cui Xiangpo didn't know what she took out, and after stuffing it into my mouth, I fainted not long after.
When I woke up again, I found myself lying in my house.
And the figure standing by the window is Rong Jun.
After noticing that I was awake, he turned sideways and looked at me with deep eyes, "Awake?" ”
I hummed.
Holding his arm and thinking about it, the burning pain came from the back of his spine.
Rong Jun sneered, walked slowly to my bedside, and ordered, "Come here." ”
"Do what?" I asked.
"Look at the scales on your back." He said.
Enduring the pain in my spine, I came to him.
Rong Jun supported me with one hand, landed on my thigh with the other, and then pressed down, and I bent my knees in front of him.
My body was very unstable in this position, and it was easy for me to fall down.
I raised my hand and subconsciously wrapped my arms around his waist.
Rong Jun sighed softly, and the hand holding me reached into the placket.
The cold fingertips went all the way up the tail ridge, and the pain in his spine did not worsen with his compression, but faded a lot.
The fingertips reach the reverse scales and gently twist the tips of the scales with the tips of the fingertips.
Suddenly, a strong blood-eating desire rushed up my throat.
I raised my head slightly, my eyelashes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, and I peeked at his white neck stupidly.
Unconsciously knelt beside the bed with my legs and feet together, and my arms withdrew from his waist and climbed onto his shoulders.
With my fingers together, I walked down.
Rong Jun seemed to be defenseless, and my neck was brought to my eyes like this.
I leaned forward, unconsciously opening my lips, my teeth embedded in his flesh.
The smell of rust bloomed in my mouth, and I could clearly feel the burning pain in my back receding.
After the pain completely faded, the broken string in my head was invisibly continued.
It was only when my sanity was returned that I realized what I was doing.
And just then, there was a knock on the bedroom door.
Then came Grandma's worried voice, "Jingjing, are you awake?" ”
