The coffin board will also become a spirit, looking for someone to take revenge?
And, it turns out that my identity in this world is that I am the grandson of this weird mother-in-law?
Then why did she lock herself up in such a cruel way?
The strange phenomena in this world and the speculation about his own situation caused a strong impact on Hu Ma's head.
The emotions of panic, doubt, and confusion also made him see stars again and make him dizzy.
But this time, he resisted fainting and tried to open his eyes to look at the mother-in-law.
And the mother-in-law who was standing by the door had been staring at Hu Ma with a dark look. Her eyes seemed unable to move under her dirty hair.
She saw that Hu Ma was swaying, but did not fall down and fainted after all, and her eyes were a little complicated.
After a long time, he slowly lowered his eyelids and said calmly:
"You woke up earlier than I thought, and you're more energetic than I thought. It looks like you're about to recover."
"..."
"Is she finally willing to talk this time?"
Hu Ma forced himself to hold on and realized that this time was different from before.
He had screamed at this mother-in-law countless times, sometimes fainting, sometimes waking up in pain, and sometimes wanting to struggle and resist when she approached, but this mother-in-law always looked on coldly, unmoved, and even It was once suspected that she could not speak.
Hu Ma immediately stared at her and said in a trembling voice: "You...what happened to me?"
"Why are you locking me up?"
"..."
"you are sick."
The weird mother-in-law walked in slowly, sat down on the small stool, and whispered: "I am treating your illness."
"Cure?"
Hu Ma's voice changed slightly: "Is this necessary to treat the disease?"
You put me through a pipa bone and chained me to the beam, and tortured me by chanting sutras and burning talismans every day and night, but you said you were treating my illness?
The mother-in-law seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, and said gloomily: "You are very ill."
"?"
No matter how sick you are, you can't hang someone up to cure them, right?
Hu Ma felt that her head was in a mess for a moment, so she jumped out and said loudly: "Stop pretending to be a ghost, who are you?"
"You...let me down first..."
"..."
The mother-in-law listened to his yelling, but she kept a calm face and slowly put down the baggage she had brought back.
It was as if he had returned to his previous state of indifference to Hu Ma's words.
But the girl with two small braids suddenly said bluntly: "Brother Hu Ma doesn't remember my mother-in-law."
"The Meng family sent a ghost to kill brother Hu Ma. My mother-in-law was very capable and brought brother Hu Ma's soul back."
"But Brother Huma always wanted to run away, so my mother-in-law fixed Brother Huma's soul and body."
"My mother-in-law helps Brother Huma recite the calming mantra every day, feeds Brother Huma soup and medicine, and cuts the flesh of Mr. Tai Sui for Brother Huma to eat. Now Brother Huma finally stops running around, but Brother Huma doesn't recognize my mother-in-law anymore. I don’t recognize Xiao Hongtang.”
"..."
At the end of her speech, she looked obviously unhappy, and her little mouth pursed.
But what she said made Hu Ma suddenly feel dizzy.
What is this all about?
He couldn't help but think of the seven days, the buzzing sound of chanting, the weird talisman water and decoction he drank, and the cubes cut into squares and boiled to a dull color. White meat...this kind of meat is what she calls Tai Sui?
In the early days, I was always dizzy and dazzled, and my body felt light and airy.
It's getting better now...
Are they really treating themselves?
But the key is...
…
"He has just settled down. It is normal for him not to remember things."
As the little girl narrated, the mother-in-law had a gloomy face and was slowly taking out the things in the bag.
I saw some incense candles, paper money, etc., and a large piece of meat wrapped in red paper. The red paper was soaked with oil.
The voice was slow and it took a long time before he said: "It will get better."
"This last single seedling of the Hu family will not be killed by the Meng family like this..."
"..."
When things developed to this point, Hu Ma already understood something.
He felt as surprised as a landslide and tsunami in his heart. Even if such a thing happened to him, he still couldn't believe it.
He was about to blurt out countless words, but suddenly he came to his senses.
Pursing the corner of his mouth slightly, he suddenly looked up at his mother-in-law and said tentatively: "Then..."
"Then I'm fine now, are you..."
"...Can you put me down?"
"..."
Everything is secondary, whether what the mother-in-law and the little girl said is true or false, it doesn't matter.
Let them help them untie these two hooks first, which is the key point.
Sure enough, under his worried gaze, the mother-in-law seemed to have a gloomier expression and slowly shook her head:
"Although it's better, it would be better to fix it for a few more days..."
"..."
Just when Hu Ma was feeling depressed, she suddenly glanced at Hu Ma mid-sentence, as if she had made some decision.
This gaze was too sharp, so Hu Ma quickly avoided it.
He could feel her looking over him, and perhaps also seeing the blood seeping from his shoulder when he just tried to escape the hook.
Then, I was surprised to hear her tone soften:
"But it's really uncomfortable to hang up. If you want to untie it, then just untie it."
"..."
Hu Ma was a little surprised for a moment: "Then..."
"I come!"
Just when he wanted to ask how to solve it, he suddenly heard the little girl in red clothes on the ground shout excitedly.
She is extremely short, less than one meter tall, with thin arms and legs, but her movements are surprisingly agile.
After bouncing on the ground, he jumped onto Hu Ma's back.
Two feet wearing embroidered shoes stepped on Hu Ma's shoulders, while her white and tender little hands grasped the iron hook, her body tensed and exerted strength.
"puff……"
A sharp pain came, and before Hu Ma could react, an iron hook had been pulled out.
She quickly moved away, rolled on Hu Ma's back again, grabbed another iron hook, and used it according to law.
Blood suddenly flowed from both shoulders, and Hu Ma felt a sense of lightness all over her body.
But what followed was severe pain in his head, stars in his eyes, and his body fell to the ground uncontrollably.
But then a burst of laughter was heard, and a chaotic red shadow flashed across his eyes.
A burst of icy coldness hit the burning and painful parts of his shoulders, which cheered him up.
When he opened his eyes, he found that it was the little girl in red, sticking out her tongue and licking her wound.
The slender tongue licked the wound, and the bleeding hole immediately stopped bleeding, and even the severe pain was greatly reduced.
"This little girl... what is she?"
Hu Ma realized the problem, but in the confusion, she didn't have time to think about it carefully. The little girl had already turned over his body and licked the two bloody holes on his back. Although Hu Ma's body was thin, it weighed at least more than a hundred pounds, but her two The slender arm actually pushed and turned at will.
This change in a very short period of time made Hu Ma's mind confused and he was breathing heavily.
During the whole process, the mother-in-law just sat on the bench, slowly poured herself a cup of cold tea and drank it.
His eyes narrowed slightly, as if he was thinking about something.
The room was quiet, with only the sound of Hu Ma's heavy breathing, strong and powerful.
She seemed to feel slightly relaxed. After a long time, she slowly stood up and said to the little girl:
"Xiao Hongtang, take care of your brother. I have to visit the Cui family grave."
"There was something wrong with Mr. Cui's death at that time. I let the locust wood board guard him for twenty years, but maybe it was thunder and rain a few nights ago that washed away the grave and the coffin boards came back to me to collect debts. Then the Cui family’s grandfather’s body probably won’t be honest either…”
"..."
She walked to the door, but as if she remembered something, she turned around and told Hu Ma:
"You are good after all. Your body is very weak and can easily attract evil spirits. Don't go out and run around."
"..."
"Not running?"
Hu Ma heard her instructions in a daze, and just thought: "I would be a fool if I didn't run!"
He endured the discomfort caused by his current weakness, but he was thinking rapidly in his mind.
Through the few remaining memory traces in his mind, and the few words spoken by the mother-in-law and the little girl just now, he vaguely connected the whole thing: "My predecessor, the grandson of this mother-in-law, was previously killed by someone else. Got killed?"
"This mother-in-law wanted to save him, so she helped him summon his soul?"
"Even though people are dead, they can still think of ways to bring their souls back. This mother-in-law is very wise..."
"But damn, she summoned the wrong soul."
"..."
He is not her grandson at all, how can he remember her?
But she couldn't say that. What if she knew that she was a fake and would break her up and try again?
…
Silently thinking to herself that the mother-in-law was probably gone, Hu Ma suddenly opened her eyes.
When he opened his eyes, he saw the little girl in red clothes squatting not far away and looking at him.
Their eyes met, big eyes staring at small eyes, but no one spoke.
Although her mother-in-law left, she still left such a little monster staring at her, so she had to deal with this little monster first.
