A layer of fine cold hair suddenly appeared on my back. I turned my right hand and held the dagger under the pillow.
My first reaction was that Ouyang Wei's accomplices were here, she had planned everything, and the only grandma she was afraid of had already fallen asleep.
It’s just the right time to start.
The reason is very simple. She acted too calmly. A normal girl would be so frightened that she would scream out loud when encountering this kind of thing.
But she wasn't afraid at all.
I turned into a snake in the darkness, and the dagger was like a breeze, approaching Ouyang Wei's waist.
The dying man's counterattack can also be deadly.
"One man and two women, three people, stood side by side at the door, looking at us motionless." Ouyang Wei did not notice my actions and continued to inform in my ear.
"what to do?"
Not her?
I was a little disappointed with this, so I wrote the word "appearance" on Ouyang Wei's palm with my fingertips.
"Wearing dark yellow bamboo hats, bright red paper clothes, paper pants, and bare feet, each person holds a fishing rod in his hand and a snakeskin bag on his back." Ouyang Wei reported carefully.
He's a snake catcher from western Hunan!
In the Valley of the Dead in Yongshun, Hunan, there lives a group of mysterious snake catchers who know the magic of controlling snakes. If a local villager is bitten by a poisonous snake, the snake catcher can make the snake crawl back on its own with a gesture. Spit out snake bile to save people.
What they hold in their hands is not a fishing rod, but a weapon for killing snakes. The top is equipped with a sharp retractable iron ring, which is specially designed to capture the snake's seven inches.
The snake catcher and his younger brother Ma who worships the snake fairy, one is in the south and the other is in the north, but they have a mortal feud.
"What should I do? Are you afraid?" Ouyang Wei asked me.
I used my fingertips to write this sentence on her palm:
"Don't be afraid when facing anyone at any time."
After I finished writing, I looked at the three people at the door and smiled sinisterly: "With your humble behavior, aren't you doing yourself a disservice by coming to the Northeast to run wild?"
"Go back to Xiangxi."
The three people did not answer. They stood upright like three corpses for a long time. Finally, the long-haired woman on the right snorted and smiled:
"A blind man's tone is quite serious!"
"If you want to die, just take action." I ignored them and turned over to sleep.
The three people stood for a while and suddenly spoke one after another:
"He is blind."
"But you can see us."
"You also know that we are from western Hunan."
"There's something wrong with him."
The three people's tones were like the death knell of hell, shrill and sinister, and then there was deathly silence again.
I don’t know how long it took, but Ouyang Wei pushed me:
"Li Sanpo, they're leaving!"
I finally breathed a sigh of relief, and my back was wet with cold sweat. The situation just now was really dangerous, and I almost died.
Even before I lost my sight, at my peak, I was no match for the snake catcher. In a one-on-one fight, I had no choice but to escape.
With the three of us going together, I can't think of any other possibility except to sit back and wait for death.
Later, when I recalled what the three of them said before they left, I always felt strange.
They didn't seem to see Ouyang Wei just now.
In their eyes, I was blind and alone, without opening my eyes, and while half asleep and half awake, I told them the story of my master's inheritance.
Who is not afraid of it?
I asked Ouyang Wei directly: "Can't they see you?"
Ouyang Wei did not answer, but smiled and praised me: "You have a very good psychological quality. You can stay calm in times of crisis. I can't do that."
She refused to say it, and I didn't ask any more questions. These three people would definitely not let it go and would come again. What should I do then?
Damn it! It just so happens that I am blind!
I gritted my teeth. When grandma was not crazy, it was easy to deal with them. But now grandma is in extremely bad condition and cannot walk steadily. What can she do to fight these people?
After much thought, I couldn't just sit back and wait for death. If it really didn't work, I could only ask the old immortal for help.
"We should hide." Ouyang Wei suggested: "Bring grandma with you."
"The aura has been locked for a long time. It's useless. Just go to sleep." I immediately denied.
Ouyang Wei hummed and lay back on the sofa.
That night, I had a very strange dream. In the dream, I traveled through time and became a death row prisoner. I was kneeling on the execution ground and was about to be executed on the spot!
Strangely, the execution ground was located in the city center.
It is surrounded by brand-new high-rise buildings and spotless asphalt roads extending in all directions.
But when I looked around, I couldn't see half a living person.
There are no cars on the road either.
Not even a leaf.
This place gives people an indescribable feeling of darkness and weirdness.
The air was also filled with the pungent smell of potion from the morgue.
Under the miserable blue sky, a dozen of us prisoners stood on small stools, each with a hanging rope hanging around his neck.
A man in a white coat covered in blood was kicking stools one by one.
The person who was hung was struggling painfully, making a roaring sound in his throat.
It will be my turn soon!
Some prisoners were so frightened that they cried loudly, and some became incontinent on the spot. They were all scared crazy!
except me.
I'm laughing.
In the dream, I finally regained my sight. I could see everything clearly. It felt so good!
Even if I am about to die, I still feel that this world is worth it.
At this time, a prisoner with long hair and blurred facial features next to me put his mouth in front of my face and asked sinisterly:
"first?"
I glared at him.
The prisoner smiled strangely at me: "I don't have time. I'll teach you some gestures. Watch out!"
He started gesticulating at me. His movements were so fast that his knuckles cracked from time to time.
At that moment, I suddenly felt blessed, concentrated my mind, and stared at the man's hand. I had never seen such a complicated gesture. It did not belong to this world at all.
The salvation of the soul lies within it!
When the gesture was fully unfolded, time stopped, yin and yang reversed, and even the underworld flowed backwards!
ah!
I woke up from my sleep screaming, and the early morning sunlight spread on my face like a dark cloth.
I immediately used the gestures I had just learned. I was sure that every step I made was correct.
It didn't work, nothing happened.
I am still blind.
"Are you having a nightmare?" Ouyang Wei's voice came to her ears.
"Yes, I dreamed that we really got married."
Ouyang Wei was not angry either. She pinched my face and handed me a wet towel: "I'll tell you good news. Those three snake catchers hanged themselves."
Ouyang Wei just went to buy breakfast and saw that the man and two women from last night had hanged themselves on the old bald tree at the entrance of the village. Their death was extremely miserable.
At the feet of each person, there was a pile of extinguished bonfires, which seemed to have been refined by someone before death.
My face remained calm and my heart was ecstatic. At first I thought it was grandma who had taken action. But when I asked, grandma said that she wasn’t at home at all last night. She didn’t encounter anything during the night she spent in the cemetery. Snake catcher.
Grandma never lies.
It was Ouyang Wei who took action.
