Chapter 183 Where is the corpse?
Although I was curious about what the corpse king in the Hundred Bone Tower was, seeing Aunt Qin's tired look, I also knew that now was not the time to ask about this... The most important thing was to quickly put the corpse that warded off the evil into the corpse cave on the sixth floor tower. So I continued to lift its feet and followed Aunt Qin to slowly move forward. There was only a dozen steps left in front, which was very smooth and there was no accident. Aunt Qin put its head in and out, and directly stuffed it into the corpse cave. Then she asked me to poke the middle finger and make a little blood out... I stretched out my hand with a sad face. As soon as Aunt Qin brushed her sleeves, she felt a slight pain of being bitten by an ant, and her fingers were covered with blood. She dipped in my blood and quickly wrote the word "seal" above the entrance of the corpse cave. After writing
Later, he drew a triangle in the opposite direction to encircle it. He drew a circle counterclockwise on each "corner" of the triangle. I don't know if it was an illusion or a dazzle, but I saw the "seal" that looked like a character and a talisman, and then it dimmed and returned to normal. After doing this, Aunt Qin finally breathed a sigh of relief. I could feel that her whole breath became lighter, just like she usually sat on the stone in front of the broken house at the end of the village and basking in the sun. She turned her head and said to a certain corpse cave opposite the opposite side, "Then, let's say it, and you can also help stare at the water evil. I will definitely do what I promised you. I know that you can actually understand, so I won't say it to you in corpse language, and my throat hurts."
Is Aunt Qin talking to the corpse again? I was shocked and looked in that direction. But there was no special scene except for the rows of corpse caves on the tower and the old corpses faintly inside. I couldn't tell which corpse cave was the powerful corpse king. Even Aunt Qin wanted to put Wang Fei into the Hundred Bone Tower, she had to discuss with it in a low voice. "Okay, Wu Wa'er, the matter is resolved. Let's go back. There will be no strange things on the way back, just treat it as relaxing and rowing."
She gently rubbed my head. Okay Aunt Qin! When I talked about playing, I became happy. Even the fear left behind just now was reduced. When I came out of the Baibian Tower, I walked out of the Yishan Tomb and walked towards the small wooden boat by the river on the river beach. I finally couldn't help but be curious and asked. "Aunt Qin, that Baibian Tower Corpse King, it..." Puchi! Aunt Qin laughed. It seemed very interesting: "I thought you could really hold it in your mind."
I scratched my head: "It's not easy to hold it in for so long. If it weren't for fear, I would have asked in the tower just now."
So Aunt Qin explained to me. It turned out that although the drowning people buried in Yishan tomb were all good ghosts who had dissipated their resentment after being saved, hundreds of years of accumulation will also distinguish the dead people who stayed here. Logically, it has been abandoned for so long, and the Yishan tomb has not replenished new corpses. It should be difficult to encounter very powerful ghosts. But in the Baibone Tower, there is a corpse king that is even more powerful than the Water Evil! This is very strange. So when that guy appeared, Aunt Qin was also shocked. Fortunately, she could speak corpses, so she quickly talked to her to explain. Although the corpse king was still kind, he had already regarded the Baibone Tower and even the entire Yishan tomb as his own territory. It would be fine if you bury ordinary dead people in, but if you want to get a Water Evil, it actually has to do Feng Shui and Earth Evil.
Influence...so it is unwilling! Aunt Qin could only persuade him and ask him what wish he had and see if he could reach an exchange. So the corpse king said that he couldn't think of anything for the time being. But he needed a promise, that is, on the same day seven years later, we must return to the Bone Tower and tell her at that time. Of course, Aunt Qin could only agree to it. In fact, it was very dangerous at that time, because Wang Fei suddenly got involved and told the corpse king that he didn't want to be put into the Bone Tower. The needs of both sides were consistent, so he asked the corpse king not to care about this stinky living person! Fortunately, the corpse king was not a evil spirit after all, and finally agreed to Aunt Qin's words - in exchange for us to put Wang Fei's body into the tower. "Didn't it mean that the tombs in Yishan are not broken, there are so many requirements. What if the requests it made are too much at that time?"
I murmured quietly, a little dissatisfied. Anyway, it was already so far away, and I was not afraid of being heard. Aunt Qin said seriously: "Wu Waer, you can't say that. You have to know that in this world, there is a burden of cause and effect, and a cycle of resurrection. Whether it is a living or a dead person, there is no right to ask others to do anything for him. Since this hundred bone tower has a master, we will naturally have to pay the corresponding price. Remember, if someone gives you completely in the future but wants nothing, you must be careful! Because there may be big things waiting for you later."
Oh... I nodded vigorously, but still said, "Where are parents?"
Aunt Qin was stunned, then her serious tone disappeared, and she laughed. "You little guy, your mouth is very stubborn! Your parents are different, and the cause and effect of parents and children was destined a few lifetimes ago. As for friends, it is good fate. What I just said refers to strangers."
I also wanted to say that Aunt Qin said that if I talked back, I would throw me into the water. I quickly shut up. Well, people were under the eaves and had to bow their heads. My mother taught me this truth when she was very young!... As Aunt Qin said, the way back was very smooth. There were neither floating corpses to block the boat nor water dogs ravaged the monsters in the river. Only the wind and bright moon were with her. And I don’t know what magical means she used, but this small wooden boat no longer needed poles and paddles.
He can automatically go against the current! The speed is not slow. It is very magical. But even so, when he returned to the small river outside the village, the sky turned white. I saw my parents, the village chief and a few young and middle-aged men, waiting a few hours ago where Aunt Qin and I got into the water. The village chief sat on the stone smoking a pipe, his head bit by bit, obviously very sleepy. My mother first discovered me, jumped up immediately and waved at me. "Young man, you are back!"
I saw her tears flowing out, and my voice was hoarse. My father hugged her with one hand and waved at us. After getting off the boat, the village chief quickly asked if things went well. In fact, when we came to this point, we could basically know that the matter was definitely completed. Aunt Qin didn't want to pay attention to the village chief, so she just threw a sentence "I'm tired and go back to sleep." She left without looking back... So, she could only let me talk about what happened that night to my parents, the village chief and the others. After hearing this, the village chief held my hand excitedly and kept saying that I was the little hero of the village! It made me very embarrassed and could only scratch my head and giggle. "Go back quickly, my son must be dozing off, hurry up and go back to sleep."
My mother urged my father to carry me back. Maybe he was nervous all night and fell asleep on my father's generous and warm back. Fortunately, it was summer vacation, and I could have a good rest the next day. I slept until two o'clock in the afternoon before getting up. After dinner, I ran to Aunt Qin in the broken house at the end of the village. She was already sitting on the big stone and basking in the sun. "Aunt Qin, I'll bring you some food."
"Hehe, haha, Wu Waer. If I don't eat, I have to eat lice."
As she said, she took out a few lice from her long hair and threw it into her mouth and chewed it. I felt that Aunt Qin was not the same as last night. It seemed that if there was nothing to do, she had returned to her crazy and hilarious look. She was no longer the mysterious, powerful, and calm master. I didn't know what to do. She could only put the food next to her, but she threw it directly to the wild cat and wild dog next to her. I was so aggrieved that tears were almost coming out. However, Aunt Qin also laughed and said, "Wu Waer, don't be sad. I can't eat food, I can only eat lice on my body. It's not that I deliberately don't accept your kindness."
When I heard this, I felt less wronged and nodded vigorously. Although I don’t know why Aunt Qin is so weird, I admire her very much. I think it makes sense for her to do this. We ordinary people don’t understand it. Life goes on like this... After the summer vacation, I went to the fourth grade of elementary school. Several nearby villages share the primary school in the village. Our village is a bit far away, so I have to go to school early and leave at half past six and get off at almost seven o’clock when I get home from school. Aunt Qin usually gets up at noon and goes back to bed at five o’clock. So when I go to school, I basically don’t see her every day, and I feel empty. But as long as it’s weekends or holidays, I will definitely keep guarding the broken house and wait for her to come out. Then accompany her.
Sitting up and basking in the sun on the stone. On weekdays, Aunt Qin doesn't talk much, but she often laughs, so I laugh with her. So the villagers always see us sitting on the stone like crazy. However, since the water stick incident, everyone in the village is very awe of Aunt Qin. Whether in person or in private, they dare not call her "crazy woman", but always call her "fairy girl". When I met her on the road, everyone would stop to say hello. Anyone who cooks delicious food would give her a serving and respectfully put it on the stone in front of her broken house. Although she never ate it, the village chief even suggested that the whole village help her repair the house together. Naturally, he was rejected. When I was in the sixth grade of elementary school, two strange things happened in the village
.And one of the strange things caused my relationship with Aunt Qin to change, and from then on, I completely embarked on a completely different path of life! It really began to come into contact with the secret weirdness in this world... The first strange thing is that my second father was brought to the body of the Yellow Rat Cat! The second father is my father's younger brother. Mandarin is usually called Uncle Er in the north, and we are used to calling him Er Da Da. What is that yellow Rat Cat? In fact, it is a weasel. It is generally called Huang Da Xian'er in the northeast, and the dialect in Sichuan and Chongqing is called Huang Rat Cat or Huang Rat Noo. Although this thing is most famous in the northeast, it is also called one of the "Five Immortals". But it is actually distributed in most parts of the country, and there are also various strange supernatural legends. Of course, the legend
According to legend, most rural people are not afraid of this beast. If they encounter a yellow rat and cat who comes to the yard to steal chickens, they must be served by a big stick or a hoe. They either drive them out or they will be killed on the spot. My second father's house lives in the west of the village, not far from my house. Usually, the two families still have frequent contacts, often travel around and stay overnight when they are free. Anyway, the land in the countryside is not valuable, and the house is generally large. That day, it was said that they would go to my second father's house for dinner and gather together. I am a little kid and have nothing to do, so I went there half an hour in advance. When I passed, I happened to see my second father sitting in the main hall, and my second mother was helping him bandage the wound on his hand. I asked them curiously: "Second Dad, what's wrong with your hand?"
My second mother said angrily and amusedly: "I went to the back mountain to fight pig grass, and was bitten by a yellow rat cat. I said he was useless. I usually boasted that he was not afraid of wolves or hairy dogs, but he couldn't catch a yellow rat cat."
Humph! My second father muttered unhappily, saying that the yellow rat cat was very cunning and felt more cunning than the fox. The couple had a good relationship. Although they quarrel, my second mother was still very distressed. I asked me what was going on, and my second father said a little depressedly. It turned out that he had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he planned to go to the back mountain to get some pig grass and feed the pigs. It was strange that the sun set faster than usual on that day. Before I could cut too much, it was almost dark. In the village
Everyone knows that it is best not to be alone on the mountain or in the forest outside the village after the sun sets, as strange things are likely to happen! So the second father was going to cut two more handfuls of grass and go home. But when he bent down to mow the grass, he suddenly felt something was wrong! There was a strong smell of stench in his nose. He almost fainted! He was also curious and followed the smell and looked for it. After only a few steps, he suddenly stepped on something under his feet, which was soft.
He was startled. But before he could react, a yellow figure suddenly jumped up and landed on his arm. He opened his mouth and bit it down. The second father let out a "ouch" and threw it away. When the thing fell to the ground, he saw that it turned out to be a yellow rat cat of about the same size as a cat! He was staring at him thrifty. My second father was shocked and angry at the time, enduring the pain on his arm. While cursing, he waved the sickle in his hand to mow the grass at it.
Cut off. The yellow rat cat had a clever figure and jumped to the side and actually avoided it. The second father was going to chop it towards its waist and abdomen. Although the jump had avoided it, his movements were still one step slower. Half of his tail was not avoided! It was slashed in the air by the sickle and fell to the ground with a sniffle. The yellow rat cat had his expression immediately ferocious and fierce when he saw the tail landing on the ground. It actually picked up the broken tail with two front paws and roared at my second father with a sharp voice.
