All of us were exhausted, especially Huang Qi and Xie Mancang, both of whom had obviously lost a lot of weight.
However, in the end, Xie Mancang still remembered my instructions. We did not rush through Jiuhe County. Instead, we found a dock in a nearby county and found a big boat to take us to the other side.
Hejiacun and Jiuhe County are separated by a hanging river, and they usually travel from Jiuhe County Pier.
If you don’t cross the river from Jiuhe County, you have to find a boat elsewhere.
When we were crossing the river, Huang Qi paid the boat owner a lot of fare, and then he ordered the workers on the boat to directly lift the carriages onto the boat for us.
After reaching the other side, unload the carriage again!
After a tiring journey and a bumpy ride at the end, we finally avoided Jiuhe County.
Xie Mancang told me that we are very close to Hejiacun, no more than half an hour away.
I asked Xie Mancang to hurry up. They only needed to send me and the paper figurine Xu to the entrance of Hejiacun, and then find a place to rest. There was no need to follow us for the time being.
Although it was afternoon, the sun was still very strong. Xie Mancang wiped his sweat while continuing to drive.
The last half hour felt extremely long to me, as if a whole day had passed...
The carriage gradually moved from the main road to the small road.
In the field of vision, the houses of Hejiacun gradually appeared.
The paper man Xu suddenly raised his head, narrowed his narrow fox eyes, and clasped his hands together.
I vaguely saw a thin steel wire between his fingers.
I was uneasy and not alert enough at the moment, but the look of the paper man Xu made me calm down immediately.
I put away the anxiety and uneasiness in my heart and tried my best to calm down.
I think He Zhi will be troubled by the watchman. That is my inference and feeling.
If the watchman really comes, no matter how anxious I am, it will not help. On the contrary, caring will make me confused.
It took a lot of effort for me to calm down, and the carriage finally arrived at the entrance of Hejia Village.
The entrance of the village is very close to the Xuanhe River. At a glance, you can see the Xuanhe River dozens of meters away.
The wide river flows rapidly.
Further away, the outline of Lijia Village can be faintly seen...
Hejiacun and Lijiacun are completely opposite villages, and their locations are not too far apart.
Although my door was not far away, I still tried to stay calm and didn't think about going there.
The carriage stopped, and Huang Qi's cautious voice came from the door, telling me that Hejiacun had arrived.
Paperman Xu and I looked at each other, and we got out of the car together.
Huang Qi asked me if I wanted him and Xie Mancang to find a place outside the village to wait for us?
I glanced at the two of them, shook my head, and said that they could go back to Jiuhe County and recuperate. I shouldn't have to travel long distances for the time being. If I need them, I will find them.
Huang Qi and Xie Mancang looked at each other, both of them had a little sadness on their faces, and their moods were quite low.
In fact, I know that during this period of time, we have been getting along day and night, through thick and thin, and Huang Qi and Xie Mancang also regard me as their backbone. If they suddenly break up, they will naturally be disappointed.
After concentrating for a moment, I first told Huang Qi to help me find out some information when he returned to Jiuhe County to recuperate.
It depends on which family needs to be connected to the dead, buried, or even moved to a grave or house.
You don't need to be a noble person to receive the tomb and bury it. If you want to move the grave or change the house, you can inquire about the news of the wealthy family.
After I said this, Huang Qi suddenly looked very excited.
He nodded repeatedly to reassure me that he would definitely handle the matter beautifully.
I nodded with satisfaction, took out another forty yuan, and gave it to Huang Qi, asking him to calculate Xie Mancang's reward and give it to him. If he couldn't do it alone, let Xie Mancang work with him, and the two of them could do it together. Good to have someone to take care of me.
A smile immediately appeared on Xie Mancang's face. The two of them swept away their previous low mood, said goodbye to me, and drove away.
It was almost dusk at this time, but there was no sunset on the horizon. The sunset passed quickly and the sky was covered with clouds.
There were a few scattered villagers at the entrance of the village, but they did not come from the edge of the hanging river, but from the side road to the entrance of the village.
They glanced at me and the paper man Xu from a distance, and then hurried into the village.
Paperman Xu and I looked at each other.
Paperman Xu shook his head and said, "I don't know if there is any problem. Let's go in and have a look."
I didn't dare to make random guesses. After nodding, I turned around and entered the village entrance.
After sitting in the carriage for too long, I felt that my whole body was a little stiff. Carrying the big black wooden box on my back, I felt that the bones in my shoulders were creaking. When I moved my neck a little, there was a clicking sound.
After entering the village, the sky became increasingly gloomy, and it seemed like it would rain at any time.
He Gui Po lives at the end of the village. I walked quickly towards the end of the village.
The paper man Xu Ze was following behind me. His movements were light and graceful, and he kept glancing left and right, obviously very cautious.
Although I had paid great attention to calming down, when I got here, the nervousness still grew.
I can't really breathe a sigh of relief until I see He Zhi safe and sound.
After walking almost half way, when they reached the center of the village, the paper man Xu suddenly stopped.
During this period, although there were some pedestrians on the village road, these villagers were quite normal. Apart from glancing at us, they did not show any signs of panic.
I also stopped and asked Paperman Xu what happened?
The paper man Xu's eyes were fixed on a small road beside him. He narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "There are vicious corpses in this village, and the yin energy is very heavy. Yes, this trip was not in vain." .”
But the direction the paper man Xu was looking in made my heart sink.
At that time, a pregnant woman had dystocia in Hejiacun, and the midwife, Grandma Song, disappeared. In order to save her, He Fei and I got entangled with Bai Lizi.
If I remember correctly, the pregnant man's name was Fang Zi. Fang Zi died at home at that time, and the pregnant woman also became an extremely fierce mother-child evil spirit.
Madam He Gui couldn't deal with her at that time, but in the end Miao Guangyang left a talisman to calm the house... and prevented mother and son from causing trouble.
"Uncle Xu... there is indeed a vicious corpse. The mother and son are... very vicious." I replied with my eyelids twitching wildly.
"The more fierce, the better. Do you know this mother and son are evil?" Paperman Xu had doubts in his eyes.
I briefly told him about Muzisha and Bailizi.
A look of longing suddenly appeared in the paper man Xu's eyes. He nodded and said: "Died with hatred and harmed his own man. It is pitiful and cruel enough."
"Mother and child twin evil spirits. Uncle Xu hasn't tried it yet, so he got a set of paper bindings of mother and son evil spirits. If this thing is left in Hejia Village, it is also a hidden danger. Apart from it, it is a good thing."
Although I was slightly uncomfortable and felt it was too cruel, Paperman Xu was right. And using the vicious corpse to skin it is what I told Paperman Xu.
At this moment, there was a sudden rumble of thunder.
The sky became darker, with a strong sense of depression...
I looked up at the sky, and a big raindrop hit me squarely on the forehead with a "pop" sound.
