4. The Lost Child (2)
After leaving, the little boy pushed open the bedroom door in the backyard and said in a weird voice, "Who is playing in there?"
When the door opened, I saw a white bone falling on the beam, and some leg bones and a little broken cloth fell directly below, and a mouse crawled on it.
The little boy picked up the tail of the mouse with one hand and said to it, "It turns out that it is you, naughty man, and it seems that you are going to be punished somewhat." With that, he swallowed the live mouse and licked the corner of his mouth with satisfaction.
When I returned to Zhaohua Mountain, it was dark.
As soon as she entered the house, she was preoccupied, and she dragged her cheeks and sat on the stool, thinking about the events of the day.
After following Wang Yuling to Wang Feiying's house, Wang Yuling checked Wang Feiying's pulse, obviously Wang Feiying had no pulse, but Wang Yuling wanted to say that he was still alive.
My mind is messed up, and I plan to visit the village in a few days.
On this day, Xi Xi finished finishing her book at the bottom of the mountain, and she heard the news that there were officers and soldiers missing one after another, and just when she wanted to go forward to ask, an evil spirit suddenly appeared, Xi Xi used a spell to injure the evil spirit, and the evil spirit escaped into the ground.
"There are evil spirits haunting you, why didn't Zhaohua Mountain receive a petition from the people?" So she decided to follow the traces of the evil spirits alone.
Chased to a junction, the evil spirit suddenly lost its whereabouts, and when he looked up, he saw that it was the village where Wang Yuling was, could it be that this village was really strange.
Walking into the village, the village seemed to be a little different from usual, and something flickered in front of my eyes.
At this time, a familiar figure ran in front of him, and it turned out to be the little boy he met a few days ago.
"Don't run around, it's dangerous!" chased after him, all the way to his door.
There was a putrid smell of corpses from the tip of her nose, and it was getting heavier and heavier, and she suddenly felt that something was not quite right, and when she turned around, she wanted to ask the child what the smell was in this room, but she saw that he showed a cold evil smile at this time.
At the same time, the flesh and blood on the little boy's body began to slowly decay along with his clothes, slowly peeling off from head to toe, and dripping into a puddle on the ground.
At this time, Xi Xi realized that the person in front of him was actually a monster, and he suddenly felt sad in his heart.
"Where is the evil here?"
"Hahahahaha. The child let out a series of yin and yang strange laughter, as if he had succeeded, and danced with his hands.
"Why did you bring me here so many times, and what did you do to the people here?"
Bai Gu continued to dance in front of her, looking at a white bone in front of her, Xi Xi suddenly became angry, "Look at the move." She used the Mind Discernment Technique, which not only knew what others were thinking, but also temporarily confused the minds of her enemies, and she wanted to use it to defeat them.
After the spell was used, the white bone instantly stopped moving, so he was ready to use the "Demon Collecting Dafa" taught by the little aunt to bring this thing back to Zhaohua Mountain, and wait for it to fall.
What I didn't expect was that with a "bang", the white bones fell to the ground and shattered to the ground.
Why is it so vulnerable, with a wave of her hands, the white bones on the ground immediately condensed into a purse, which fell into her hand, she stuffed the purse into her arms and walked back.
After subduing the revenant, she hurried out, she had to see how the rest of the village was doing?
But when she came outside, the village was uninhabited and depressed, and the houses in the village had collapsed due to disrepair, and the original foundations faintly showed the original outline of the village.
How could this be? Could it be that everything I saw here before was a fantasy, including Wang Yuling.
The first time Xi Xi encountered such a thing, it was difficult to accept it for a while, and he shouted at the village, "Yuling ......"
But there was no response from the village.
Following the traces of the village, he walked to Wang Yuling's house, and there were corpses all over the place, all white bones, what happened?
When I came to Wang Yuling's house, the house I had seen in the illusion had now become a pile of scattered stones, and occasionally green weeds were growing all over it.
He moved one stone after another, searched for a noon, and found no bones, which can only mean that he did not die at home.
I don't know which one of the bones on the ground is Wang Yuling's.
Wang Yuling existed in the past, and when she thought of this, she was very sad, such a kind-hearted person could only exist in illusion.
However, when her eyes swept over the high horse-head wall next to the bell, she chuckled in her heart, and saw a towering tree poking its head out of the middle of the courtyard, and the haunting thing at the end of the tree was a curse.
It's a curse!
"Who's doing the trick?"
"I was going to let you go, but I didn't think I could send it to the door, so I can't blame me........." A terrifying voice sounded in the old village.
At night, Xi Xi hadn't come back yet, and Lou Qingyue seemed to have guessed something.
At this time, a black shadow flashed over Zhaohua Mountain, and then quietly entered the book room.
Soon, a candle flame lit in the room, followed by the sound of books being turned over.
The dark shadows on the wall flickered and shuffled as the light of the fire flickered and fell.
How could there not be?
"What are you looking for?" a cold voice sounded, and the dark shadow on the wall shook violently, and instantly regained its calm.
The man looked left and right, but there was no one in sight.
Immediately afterwards, the door that was originally closed squeaked open by the wind, and I saw a woman in a long lake blue dress suspended under the moon, like a fairy who had come down from the heavens of the nine, her clothes fluttering, and she couldn't tell whether it was a dream or reality for a while.
The man stared for a while, came back to his senses, hugged his sword and said, "Are you the mountain god on Zhaohua Mountain?"
Lou Qingyue didn't answer directly, she was a little surprised.
When he asked her like this, she seemed to have to think about it, after all, she had never thought about what her identity was, why she was able to take charge of this Zhaohua, and what was it for?
She didn't seem to be able to find the answers to these simple questions for a while.
"Since you have something to ask for, why are you embarrassed by the people on my mountain?" Lou Qingyue asked, a little dissatisfied in his tone.
"It only fell asleep briefly, and I didn't mean to hurt it. The man replied, and was sorry for his act of fascinating the clouds and then breaking into the mountain.
"If you really had that mind, you wouldn't be here. Lou Qingyue landed slowly, "But I don't like people who break my rules." ”
The man suddenly understood that he was not lucky enough to go up the mountain, but someone let him go, "I'm really sorry for trespassing on the mountain without permission, but there is really something important on my body, and I have to do it as a last resort." ”
"There is a king's law in the human world, and I Zhaohua also has Zhaohua's rules, and today you are the first to break the rules I have set, so you have to pay the price. ”
"I do. The man replied categorically.
"When this is done, I will ask you for something, and that thing will be the price for your trespassing. ”
"Good. ”
"Don't you wonder what I'm going to ask you for, maybe it's your life?"
"If my life can be exchanged for the lives of my people in the North Sea, I am willing. The man said resolutely, with a firm and sonorous voice, as if he had made up his mind.
Lou Qingyue was indifferent, just said that he would go down the mountain with her tomorrow and left.
The man looked at Lou Qingyue's figure drifting away, shook his head, and then was blasted out of the classic room by a force, and the door of the classic room was slammed shut.
"I, Zhaohua Mountain, have never left outsiders. ”
"Yes, if there is a lot of trouble, I will go down the mountain and wait. ”
The next day, the man waited at the foot of the mountain as promised, and at the end of the day, Lou Qingyue flew down from the mountain in the clouds, "Yunhe." ”
Yunhe flew from not far away and landed beside Lou Qingyue, "Take him." ”
Although the man did something wrong to Yun He the night before, Yun He obediently listened to Lou Qingyue's instructions, and the man on his back flew to the depths of the clouds with Lou Qingyue.
After a while, the two of them stopped in a village at the foot of the mountain.
The man couldn't understand why Lou Qingyue brought him here, so he asked, "Why did you come here, is it related to what I am asking for?"
"It doesn't matter, but I like to play by the rules and everything has to come first. ”
The man was even more puzzled, although he was anxious in his heart, he didn't say much, just followed Lou Qingyue inside.
The village in front of me is no different from an ordinary village, but it is built around the mountain, which can be regarded as adapting to local conditions. The people in the village came and went, but each of them was disgraced and looked a little dull, which made the whole village lifeless.
"What do you see?"
"People, houses. ”
"No, that's just appearances. ”
Lou Qingyue waved his long sleeves, the breeze blew on his face, and the originally populated small village became a deserted village without people, the houses collapsed and fell, and the white bones on the ground were piled up.
"It's bones and ruins, what the hell is going on?" the man blurted out.
"Someone is creating illusions. ”
The man held down the long sword in his hand, watching out for everything around him.
Lou Qingyue looked around, looking for the culprit who created the illusion.
There was silence all around, there was not a trace of sound, and the broken walls and ruins were scattered with bones, full of depression and loneliness.
Suddenly, she focused her gaze on a new green, the only life in this deserted village, it should be there!
