The Early Spring Rain Chapter 44 Can't Be Saved
Longpo Village, ancestral shrine
As soon as Ming Huazi and Yun Lanyan returned to the cottage, they were invited by the patriarch and others to the ancestral shrine to discuss important matters, and the rest of them dispersed one after another.
Entering the courtyard gate, Yun Lanyan raised his eyes and saw many elderly people from Longpo Village gathered in the hall.
The white fox Xiaohao used her pointed mouth to push open the clothes on Lan Yan's chest, revealing her little head, and her eyes were full of displeasure to observe the surroundings.
The old man called Hanako without delay, and asked the patriarch directly to the point: "Everyone is together, let's talk about it, what is going on with the female ghost and the resentful spirit?"
The patriarch looked timid, and said tremblingly: "Great immortal, we really don't know these resentful spirits. ”
"Where's the female ghost?"
At this time, an old man stood up and said in an old-fashioned manner: "Heh, that dead girl broke the rules and messed up the bloodline of respect and inferiority, so she should be punished by the clan rules and driven out of Longpo Village." As for the short-lived death, how do we know? If she is dead and still alive, Master Sangjiu should let her soul fly away. ”
"Sangjiu, your archmage is the one who refines female ghosts and resentful spirits. The old man sneered and looked at the old man. Dark luck spiritual power, an invisible deterrent enveloped the old man. He sat back in the chair with trembling legs, sweating like rain on his head, and he didn't dare to breathe.
As soon as these words came out, the ancestral hall suddenly exploded, and the noisy people who buzzed were bored. Only a few people who still believed in Sang Jiu were also in the conversation, a little shaken.
After a few moments, the cacophony of voices died down.
The patriarch was pushed out by them as a representative, bowed and performed an authentic Central Plains etiquette.
"Daxian, you can save us, we will explain everything. The woman was killed by me after consulting with several elders of the clan, and also listened to the advice of Sangjiu on the grounds that she had violated the rules of the clan, and the corpse was thrown into the wilderness according to his proposal, but it was true that she broke the rules first, so she ended up here. Halfway through speaking, he swallowed back Master Sangjiu's words.
These words were like a slap in the face, and they hit the old man in the face. After he heard the truth, his hands trembled angrily, scolded the patriarch, and got up and left angrily.
Seeing such a move, presumably some old people should not know about it.
But when Yun Lanyan asked the woman what rules she had broken, everyone fell silent again.
"Make a private agreement with the young man in the village for life. In the end, I don't know who squeezed out a sentence from the corner, and his voice sounded a little trembling, as if he was afraid.
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the patriarch and the others really became gloomy, but they immediately peeked at Yun and Ming with a look of deep remorse, beating their chests and blaming themselves: "It's all because I was rash and did something wrong." I don't dare to ask the great immortals and young heroes to protect us, I just want to save them for the sake of the innocent people in a village. ”
What is the rule?
Yun Lanyan frowned and glanced at the people present, most of them were already in the age of sixties, and even a few of them were too old to do things so hatefully. Treating human life as a mustard and practicing it like this, it is better to directly blame all the bad things on one person.
Hanako didn't speak, but looked at Lan Yan.
The patriarch cast a flattering glance at Yun Lanyan with the gaze of the old man Hanako, and pleaded with him, all of which he ignored. A villain's face made Yun Lanyan even more disgusted.
"You can't save it, there is a debtor and a debtor, and you have to give others a chance to seek revenge. Yun Lanyan said angrily and turned around and left the ancestral hall.
"Daxian save us, but you can't watch us being murdered by female ghosts. ”
Behind him, there were voices crying and praying to the old Hanako.
Tossing Yun Lanyan, who had not slept all night, went back to the room to meditate and breathe, and the white fox Xiaohao was by his side. But I couldn't settle down in my heart, and I was secretly entangled in right and wrong. If it really doesn't matter, you can't watch the female ghost kill innocents indiscriminately. If you say that it doesn't matter, getting rid of the female ghost is helping those people, isn't it becoming their accomplice?
After a while,
The old man called Hanako to push the door in, and deliberately smiled evilly and asked, "Really not saved?"
Yun Lanyan pretended not to hear anything, and continued to close her eyes and breathe.
He smiled and said to himself, "Then there is a good show to watch these nights." ”
The scenery in the village is as quiet as if it has not experienced the invasion of resentful spirits last night, but people's hearts are not calm.
Although the dwellings of the villagers are far away from the depths, the howls of more than a dozen resentful spirits last night were so noisy and harsh that they will inevitably be heard, but they are all afraid to close the door. Although this matter is not too publicized, there are always groups of people who have privately discussed last night's incident, which makes people panic, and there are even those who have already taken their families to live in nearby Miao Village for temporary refuge.
How do you know, everyone chased them into the room, and they still carried things.
The patriarch and the elders were about to break through the threshold of the room where Yun Lanyan and the old man Hanako lived. Each flattering look,Trying to please Ming Huazi.。 There is really an endless stream of people delivering things, food, wine, money, and even an old man sent the Golden Silkworm Gu King who has been passed down in his family for three generations, which is actually a golden silkworm Gu.
He swore that this golden silkworm king could eliminate disasters, drive away evil spirits and cure diseases, and also kill people invisibly.
But he was ridiculed by the old name Hanako: "Then you can't feed this silkworm Gu to the female ghost to eat, don't you exorcise evil spirits?"
The old man finally left with a disgraced face, there seemed to be a little anger in his eyes, but he still asked for help, and he didn't dare to show half of it.
There is still only one request for them, begging us to save our lives, saying that the inheritance of Longpo Village for more than ten years cannot be cut off in their hands. The first few people who came were kicked out by the old man Hanako without waiting to finish speaking, and in the end they simply closed the door and thanked the guests.
"I knew it was better to leave the wine. The old man Hanako smacked her lips and muttered, moving her steps in the house, and from time to time she picked up the delicate wine gourd on her waist and looked in from the mouth of the pot, and she looked like a drunken offender.
As soon as night fell, the doors of the houses were already closed, and there was no longer half a figure on the alleys and streets.
There was another knock on the door.
When I opened the door, I saw that it was Meng Li who had sent some wine and food.
As soon as Hanako heard that there was wine, she hurriedly welcomed the young man in. Pick up a small jar of wine, pour it into the bowl, pause slightly, sweep the wine in the bowl at a glance, and drink it all. Drink two or three bowls in a row before exhaling and relaxing.
Meng Li suddenly fell to his knees and slammed his head on the ground with a muffled sound.
Yun Lanyan thought that he was also here to ask for his father and the elders, who would have thought that what he said was another thing, but it surprised me and the old man Hanako.
"I... I beg you to save her. His Zhongyuan dialect is much more fluent than the others in the village: "Only you can save her, and you are willing to save her." ”
Yun Lanyan and Lao Huazi glanced at each other with some puzzlement, and their eyes looked at Meng Li who was kneeling on the ground.
