Chapter 129 The past is like the wind

As soon as the prohibition came out, all the ghosts surrendered. I was confident that these zombies could not hurt me at all, so I rushed forward two steps, raised the dagger and inserted it into the abdomen of a zombie. The zombie fell straight down.
on the ground.
At this moment, Shui Xiaoliu looked back at me and ran towards that person quickly.
When the man saw Shui Xiaoliu running towards him, he cursed and turned around to run away. Shui Xiaoliu stopped in place, moved his feet lightly, and kicked up the loess on the ground. The loess came with the sound of breaking wind,
It hit the man on the back.
The man was in pain, wailed, and fell to the ground.
I waved the dagger left and right, trying hard to kill, but after the man fell, the wooden stick fell out of my hand, and the zombie fell straight to the ground.
I ran to him in a few steps and kicked him hard. He wailed, turned around with a bitter look on his face, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and said to me: "Little brother, spare your life, I just want to
Just to make a living and make some extra money, all I killed were Koreans, not Chinese!"
The more I listened, the angrier I became, “Aren’t they human beings?”
So, he kicked him again, but the man pretended to be in pain and rolled on the spot. Shui Xiaoliu didn't look at the man, frowning and looking behind him.
I grabbed the dagger and wanted to kill him with one blow. Unexpectedly, the man picked up the stick again while rolling, laughed at me, and was about to wave the stick in his hand, but an evil fire came from nowhere.
Close to my face and shoot straight at that person.
I was about to turn around, but I saw that the man's body was already on fire. I didn't see him struggling and roaring, and his body was almost burned.
I followed Shui Xiaoliu's gaze and saw a burly middle-aged man walking through the ravine. I couldn't see his face clearly. I just felt that the man's walking posture was weird.
"Hmph, ghost talisman!" Shui Xiaoliu said.
"Ghost charm?"
I tried to think about the ghost talisman over and over again in my mind, but I still had no impression of the word ghost talisman. I looked at the approaching figure in the distance and asked Shui Xiaoliu in confusion: "What's going on? Who is that person?"
who?"
"I don't know." Shui Xiaoliu said slowly while looking at the lonely figure in the distance.
The man got closer and closer, and the sky became slightly brighter, and then he could see his face clearly, but except for his taller size, he was no different from ordinary people. The only way to identify him in the crowd was the weird white patch on his head.
hair.
Shui Xiaoliu saw that he had arrived beside him and took a step forward. He also stopped. The two looked at each other, like old friends for many years and enemies from generation to generation.
"I'm very capable. I can break into the Qijue Valley without the Hengda Shou Seal!" The man glared at Shui Xiaoliu with a low tone.
"You don't wear a longevity seal, and you walk through ghosts every day. I should have thought it was you. In today's world, there is no other person who can use the spell to such a level except you."
After Shui Xiaoliu finished speaking, the two looked at each other and smiled.
The weird man looked at the mummy shell that was about to burn in front of him and said angrily: "This man has done many evil things and made ill-gotten gains. I have wanted to deal with him for a long time. But we are both from the village. It is not easy to fall out. Today we bump into each other."
Right on!"
"Decades have passed and my temper has changed a lot, but I still don't look old!"
After hearing this, the man waved his hand and asked Shui Xiaoliu: "What are you doing here? The only evil people in Qijue Ridge are evil beasts, but there are no such heavenly treasures as you are looking for!"
"Did Ma Zhong send a little girl a few days ago?" I saw that he was very familiar with things in the villa, so I asked.
The man frowned and looked at me
Said: "That is the granddaughter of the chief rudder Ma Di, who is recovering from her injuries in Qijue Ridge. This is a solemn secret, and you should not tell it, but now the villa is leaderless and is in disarray. If there is nothing serious, go back early!"
After he finished speaking, he shook his head, but could not hide the anger in his eyes.
After saying that, the man touched the cloth bag on his waist, took out a talisman, handed it to Shui Xiaoliu with both hands, and sighed: "I can't repay my life-saving grace. This is the Taiyi Bright Road Talisman.
When there is no way ahead, just push forward. I have to go to pick up other people entering the mountain. I can't send them far away, so I say goodbye!"
I looked at his bleak back and asked Shui Xiaoliu: "That man has a really weird temper, but his methods are quite clever! He walks through ghosts all day long and doesn't even touch his body!"
Shui Xiaoliu squinted his eyes, looked at the sun, and whispered to me: "Let's go!"
The wind and sand have blown away the traces of the arrival, and the snowy peaks stand proudly in front of us. The sun is rising, and there is new hope, but it may also be a precursor to destruction.
Although the man had a strange temper, he had a good heart. I was curious and asked Shui Xiaoliu: "Who is that man?"
"He was originally a Manchu in Banner. When the current situation was turbulent, his family was in ruins, but he could paint a good painting. I saved his life by chance. I saw that his painting skills were outstanding, so I sent him to
Go to 'Xuan Zhenzi' to learn how to draw talismans."
Along the way, my face was covered with dust. In order to kill the boring journey, I kept asking this and that, but Shui Xiaoliu shook his head and refused to answer.
Qijuegou is an endless barren ridge with no breath of life. Although it is not as vast as the desert and the sea, if a weak-willed person walks there, all thoughts will be lost and all emotions will be wiped out.
Seeing that Shui Xiaoliu didn't speak, I asked helplessly: "I think that man is very good at drawing talismans, how could he be saved by you?"
"It's all about the past, so don't mention it!" Shui Xiaoliu continued walking on his own after finishing speaking.
I followed closely behind him and asked: "Then it's better to talk about the past than to do this. I'm so panicked that it makes your teeth sticky all the time."
Shui Xiaoliu stopped, smiled, and said, "Okay, I'll tell you about that past event!"
It turns out that this weirdo, whose real name is Yehenara Bairi, is an out-and-out Manchu. His ancestors followed Nurhaci to conquer the world, and they have been eating royal food for generations. But by his great-grandfather's generation, his family had been in decline. Now that he is here
The next generation became even poorer. His parents failed in business and became depressed and fell ill. They passed away very early and spent their days guarding an old house with dilapidated walls in a daze.
On this day, he was secretly hesitating at home whether to eat sweet potatoes or stick noodles from the bottom of the vat for dinner. When he was about to go out, he suddenly heard a knock on the door.
He walked to the door in a few steps, thinking it was a debt collector, rubbed his hands, but did not dare to open the door.
Suddenly I heard an old man's voice: "Are you at home during the day?"
After hearing this, he was puzzled. The voice sounded like Mr. Li from the next village, but why did this dinner party come to his house?
He tentatively opened the door and stuck his head out. Just as he was about to ask what was going on, his eyes suddenly lit up and he saw a pretty girl standing next to Old Li Tou. She was his daughter, Li
Nihuang.
Before Bai Ri could say anything, the old man opened the door and pushed him into the back room. Bai Ri didn't know what was going on and was so shocked that he opened his mouth from ear to ear and asked in a trembling voice: "Uncle, you see, I don't have anything to do with this."
I don’t owe you food..."
Boss Li frowned after hearing this: "Bai Ri, I think you are a nice person. Although you have no ability, as long as you are good to my daughter, I will choose a date to get you two married!"
"
Bai Ri couldn't believe his ears. How could a good thing like a pie in the sky find its way to his head? He quickly asked: "Your daughter is so beautiful. What kind of girl are you looking for? A poor guy like me will suffer a lot."
After speaking, he glanced at Li Nihuang and swallowed.
Mr. Li sighed and said: "Hey, I don't want to marry my daughter to you, but I can't support myself these days. How can I support my daughter? All the young people in the village have run away. You
The boy is still in good health, so don’t be cheap and behave yourself!”
Bai Ri felt happy after hearing this. Looking at the shy Li Nihuang, he wished he could pounce on him right away.
A few days later, Bai Ri got a donkey from somewhere and happily arrived at Li Nihuang's house. It was regarded as a marriage ceremony. The donkey carried the bride and wandered all the way to his home. Bai Ri made a pot of stew specially. This was regarded as a wedding ceremony.
Already.
But within a few days, the joy of getting married was overwhelmed by the embarrassment of life. Looking at my wife who was losing weight day by day, I felt bad every day. However, the seven-foot-tall man could not even support his wife, and I felt angry.
I have to go out and live a good life, earn more money, and let my wife live a good life.
He left half a jar of stick noodles for Li Nihuang, and after explaining everything, he rode out of the village on a donkey. However, he had been away for two years, and he also made a little money selling paintings and calligraphy outside.
However, he didn't know that his wife was looking forward to his return every day, and the number of stick noodles in the vat was getting less and less every day. In order to prevent outsiders from laughing at her, she would rather go hungry than go back to her parents' house for a meal.
In the blink of an eye, more than three months have passed, and Mr. Li has no news about his daughter. He thought that the young couple were living a good life and had forgotten about their own home. But he was really happy and planned to visit his daughter in the afternoon.
But as soon as Mr. Li entered the house, his heart skipped a beat, and he burst into tears. He saw that his daughter had starved to death on the kang. It was the middle of the third lunar month, and she had been dead for who knows how many days. The stench filled the house.
.
Mr. Lao Li rolled up his daughter on the kang with tears in his eyes. He had no money to buy a coffin and no strength to bury her, so he threw the roll of mats on the top of the kang.
Two years later, wearing smooth clothes during the day and riding the same donkey as before, he returned home, hummed a tune, and tied the donkey to the pear tree in front of his house.
Seeing that it was almost time for dinner, there was no smoke coming out of the house, and I felt sad. It seemed that Li Nihuang was having a hard time being alone at home. He must have stopped cooking again. Thinking of this, he walked towards the house.
go.
Just as he was about to reach out and open the door, he saw his wife coming out. There was no light in the room, and he couldn't see his wife's expression clearly. He could only see that her cheeks were sunken, and she cried bitterly while holding her in her arms.
His wife helped him into the house and asked him to sit on the kang for a while. She said that since he had not been back in the past few years, he must have suffered a lot outside and had to boil water for cooking during the day.
I didn't know how I felt when I saw my wife being so virtuous during the day. When I sat on the kang, the kang was covered with dust. Only when I touched it did I realize that there was no mat on the kang.
Bai Ri was about to take out the earrings he bought from the town and give them to his wife when he looked over and found that his wife had no head and the flames under the stove were also a miserable green.
Bai Ri swallowed, thinking that he had been dazzled, and shook his head. Then he saw that his head was missing. It was just that his wife lowered her head to light the fire and didn't see clearly.
But sitting in the house during the day always felt strange. There was no wind on my back, and my hairs stood up unconsciously. There was always a feeling of unease in my heart. He took the pair of earrings and walked slowly towards his wife.
