113 Long-cherished grudges
It was the grass ghost mother-in-law's house that caught fire.
Cheng Yitian ran to the nearest house and borrowed a basin of water. The head of the household was afraid of being implicated by the grass ghost woman, so he insisted on not letting him scoop the water in his water tank. Cheng Yitian had no choice but to rush to the river not far away, fetch water and then extinguish the fire. After running back and forth for more than a dozen times, the villagers in the village came out to help him. But by this time, the grass ghost woman's house had almost burned down.
The fire was down, but the smoke was still rising. In the place where the fireworks were curling, Cheng Yitian finally found someone. It looked like it was a grass ghost, but because there were many burnt beetles on the surface, the black charred corpse of the beetle disguised the person on the ground as a strange creature covered in black bumps.
Regardless of the hot hands, Cheng Yitian peeled off a thick layer of beetle charred corpse shell, and finally saw the face of the grass ghost woman inside.
The grass ghost woman is almost dead. A fresh breath poured in, and suddenly, she opened her cloudy eyes again.
She desperately opened her mouth, as if she was saying "in", and as if she wanted to tell Cheng Yitian to "run". After working hard for a long time, the flame of life was still reduced to the point of running out of oil and withering. The grass ghost woman rolled her eyes and returned to the underworld.
Cheng Yitian has been with her for a short time, and said that he can't talk about feelings. But, after all, a living person died suddenly in front of his eyes, and how could he, who had never experienced life and death, not mourn? In vain, he called "mother-in-law" a few times, cried for a while, and carried the grass ghost woman to the grass that had not been burned by the smoke and fire. I went to another house and borrowed a big shovel, dug a deep pit in the woods, and buried this weather-beaten old man.
After doing this, Cheng Yitian couldn't help but feel a little angry in his heart. Even if Spruce doesn't want to get into trouble, after all, she has been covered by the grass ghost woman. Playing Yu Xiaomi, getting along with the grass ghost woman day and night, even if the spruce doesn't want to stay anymore and returns to the Valley of Strange Flowers, he should come to say goodbye.
The grass ghost woman is dead, and she has been a grass ghost woman for a long time, shouldn't she show up and worship?
Is it true that he is not deeply involved in the world, and his understanding of people's hearts is shallow after all? What kind of person is Spruce, and he still hasn't read it?
Sprinkled a glass of water and wine in front of the new grave where the grass ghost woman was buried, Cheng Yitian couldn't help but sigh softly while thinking.
There was a rustling sound in the woods, and he was quick to float and stop the direction where the sound came. Zhang Kangkang, who was wearing a silk cloth and a short fight, crawled and wanted to leave, but Cheng Yitian strode forward and grabbed him.
It can be seen that Zhang Kangkang is extremely jealous of him. After Cheng Yitian grabbed him, this guy immediately showed a very frightened expression, and he couldn't stop shouting: "No matter my business, no matter my business, the old ghost woman is dead, and it has nothing to do with me at all." β
It can be very difficult to communicate with such a person and always treat them politely. Cheng Yitian wanted to pull out more useful from his mouth, so he pressed him against the tree, broke a branch casually, and threw it over with a "brush". A beetle that flew up from the ground was struck in the air, and then burst in place, and the juice was scattered and did not splash around, but was distributed in a circle in the air, and finally landed vertically, and the sparse insect corpse "snapped" to the ground.
The branches pressed against Zhang Kangkang's neck, and a stench immediately came from Zhang Kangkang's body.
"Big, big, big...... The kingβ" The trembling cry clearly showed Zhang Kang's surrender. Zhang Kangkang said: "What you want to know, I will tell you everything." β
"Is the fire put by the people of Overlord Biao?"
Zhang Kangkang nodded again and again.
"Through you, do you know that the grass ghost woman has a grudge against Overlord Biao?"
"The old ghost woman hates the poison Uncle Wu......" The rest of the words were forced back by the heavier force on his neck.
Cheng Yitian said: "Why do you always call it 'old ghost woman'?"
"We had a holiday. Zhang Kangkang was really afraid of the soft branch, and reached out several times to push it. He had just urinated incontinence, his pants were all wet, fear and panic, and his body was so unfavorable that his face wrinkled into a bitter melon.
Cheng Yitian was angry and funny, and threw the branch on the ground.
Zhang Kangkang wanted to run, but before he could move his feet, this difficult "uncle" stopped in front of him again, no matter which direction he was aiming in advance.
The mother-in-law of Ruyimen is powerful enough, I didn't expect that a mountain is higher than a mountain, Cheng Yitian gives him the feeling of being so young, and his speed and body are not inferior to Bai Buqi's wife Liao Huanting.
Of course, Cheng Yitian would not tell him that his light skills were impermanent. Although Liao Huanting is also a master in this way, she used all her strength to practice, but in the end, she only had a draw with him. Cheng Yitian has deep strength, a long breath, and a short distance movement is even more erratic and subtle - just dealing with a farmer like Zhang Kangkang, it is naturally magical.
Zhang Kangkang was stopped again, and the last bit of thinking about escaping disappeared. With a "plop", the man was planted on the ground.
"Okay, okay," he gave up resistance altogether, "I'll tell you everything I know. β
Cheng Yitian let him get up.
Zhang Kangkang said that he would not resist again, and warmly invited Cheng Yitian to his house.
In Hexi Village, in Zhang Kangkang's mansion, Zhang Kangkang made a sumptuous dinner to entertain Cheng Yitian, with three kinds of meat: stewed chicken with edamame rice, fried gizzard liver with chili pepper, steamed river fish in clear water, three kinds of vegetarian: coriander cloud silk, mapo tofu, green cabbage and mushrooms, and a bowl of chrysanthemum tofu soup, plus fragrant white rice. Cheng Yitian was also hungry, so he was not welcome, and sat opposite him and ate together.
Halfway through eating, Zhang Kangkang stood up and went to the house with a bowl full of vegetables, and came back after about a meal. Sitting down, Cheng Yitian had already finished all his meals.
With a full stomach and better spirits, Cheng Yitian's eyes were bright, and he stared at Zhang Kangkang and didn't lie to deceive his confidence. scooped up a bowl of soup, drank it rubbingly, and put down the bowl after drinking, Zhang Kangkang finally opened the conversation.
"I have a grudge with the grass ghost woman because of my son," he said this, he looked back in the direction of the house, "My son Zhang Lu was originally a smart and clever good child, he listened to me since he was a child, and without a mother, he can still live with me very happily, and learn how to make dark incense." Our father and son are very happy together, I use my own craft to make money every day, just wait for Zhang Lu to grow up, and then build a better house and marry him for him, and our father and son also enjoy family fun. β
"On that day, when the accident came, my eleven-year-old son was going to the mountains to help me pick orchid silk, when he was bitten by a beetle released by the grass ghost woman. This beetle is for food, and it is not a big deal to be bitten, but the bad thing is that there was a mountain wind in the grass at that time, and my son was bitten by a beetle, so he took a step back and better stepped into its territory. The mountain wind bit him. My son was crying in fear and was found by me. In order to save his life, no matter how anxious I was, no matter how unbearable I was, I made a quick decision, and I still cut off my son's leg that was bitten by the mountain wind. β
"Because it happened so quickly that I didn't have time to explain, my son became disabled with only one leg. In the process of confronting the mountain wind, I successfully killed the snake that could have killed me, so that I saved my son, and the son had a problem in his heart from then on. The uninjured leg of my son's one leg slowly shrank and deformed somehow, so he didn't like to go out even more, and he was much colder to me. In the days when he was locked up in the house, he complained that I only cared about picking Youlan Si and didn't care about taking him with me, so I let him be bitten by snakes. I could have killed the snake, but I deliberately cut off his legs, which is another indication that I am not entirely for him. His mother was abducted by his former childhood sweetheart, and there was no fault of his mother's love, and later he blamed me. For several months, he didn't like to eat or drink, and finally became like a skeleton. β
"There is a debtor, so I have to find the grass ghost woman who let the beetle come out and frightened my son. I made a kind of aphrodisiac incense and went to the house where the ghost woman smoked grass in Hedong Village every night to put beetles. As soon as the insects smell the fragrance, they will stir and secrete mucus from their bodies. This slime has a special smell for bugs, but it is too bad for the grass ghost. Because, an old beggar who doesn't even have the strength to plough the fields raises some strange insects for the dignitaries in the city who have special hobbies to eat, and these insects are equal to her life. The worms are all with slimy juice, who else can they sell to?'
In the end, she became an old woman with no income. β
Hearing this, Cheng Yitian can be regarded as having figured out all the causes and consequences.
"I sent Yu Xiaobi to Wujiabao because I couldn't afford to raise my granddaughter. He asked Zhang Kangkang.
Zhang Kangkang nodded: "Uncle Wu's second lady thinks that Uncle Wu only gets along with exquisite women every day, and occasionally gives Uncle Wu a novel wild girl, maybe Uncle Wu will like it very much." β
That's why Yu Xiaowei did the aftermath of Wu Biao's concubine. β
When Zhang Kangkang heard this, he shook his head again and again: "No, it's not a concubine." Then he explained, "Uncle Wu's famous concubine room is Mrs. Qifang Zhen." The implication is that Yu Xiao is ranked second, and he really got sixteen, seven, eight.
From Zhang Kangkang's mouth, Cheng Yitian learned that in Wujiabao, the second lady and the fifth, sixth and seventh ladies who were friends with the second lady all had a tendency to abuse people. Then, Yu Xiaobao will sneak out of Wujiabao, and finally fall to the end of being beaten to death by Wu Biao, there are traces to follow, and there is a reason for it.
Cheng Yitian himself was bullied by the Shangwu Sect, the Lotus Palace and the famous and decent families, and when he heard these things, a wave of anger rose from the bottom of his heart unconsciously, and he couldn't suppress it.
