That Drought Demon has been nourished in the evil cave for decades. Even when the tomb was struck by lightning and the lightning-strike tree grew, it was not destroyed... Liu Tianniu was able to kill him, which was a big problem!
While I was thinking about it, I didn't respond to the comment, but simply said that we can still find other murderous corpses, so there's no need to pity this one.
The paper man agreed, then hurriedly left the main room and walked towards the courtyard door.
I wiped the sweat from my forehead, but the sweat on my back stuck to my clothes, making it sticky and cold.
I calmed my mind, bent down and picked up He Zhi on the ground, and walked into the room where Liu Tianniu rested.
The interior of the house is simple but reasonably clean.
There is a futon on the wooden bed, which should be used by Liu Tianniu for meditation. After I took it down, I laid He Zhi flatly on it.
I went to get another basin of water and wiped the tears on He Zhi's face.
Her beautiful face had lost all color at this moment, and her eyelids were extremely red and swollen. Even though she was unconscious, her eyebrows were full of sadness.
I stared at her blankly, the unspeakable self-blame and guilt that kept eroding my heart.
Granny He's last words and my promise have been echoing repeatedly in my mind.
I closed my eyes, and when I opened them again my mind was much stronger, and I murmured: "Whether I use the knife with my own hands or borrow the knife, the old watchman will definitely die, and I will give you and Granny He an explanation." At this time, my temples were throbbing and my head was throbbing.
Another day and night without sleep, without water or rice, I was already exhausted.
I pulled up the thin quilt from the foot of the bed and gently covered He Zhi. After confirming that there was nothing wrong with her, I returned to the yard and wanted to go to the kitchen to find something to eat.
I quickly found the kitchen, dug out a few pieces of dry flour pancakes, drank them with the water in the water tank, and finally felt better.
Returning to the room where He Fei was lying, I lay down beside the bed, closed my eyes, and tried my best to rest for a while.
Liu Tianniu will definitely come back soon, and the ghost woman of the He family is even less likely to find the old watchman again. If I don't rest now, I'm afraid I won't be able to rest later.
But I also made up my mind that I would never tell anything about my mother. I just said it was a matter of Feng Shui!
The ghost mother-in-law of the He family probably wouldn't say much because of my status.
Drowsiness gradually came over me. I didn't know how long I slept for. When I woke up, there was no one in the bed.
I shook my head hard and stood up quickly.
I feel a little uneasy, where has He Pheasant gone?
Quickly walking to the door, I pushed the door open, and what I saw was He Zhi's back. She was sitting alone on the ground in the main room.
I quickly walked to her.
Originally, I was afraid that He Zhi was still crying, and I was thinking about how to persuade her, but when I got closer, I found that He Zhi was no longer crying.
Her eyes were just a little unfocused, and there was almost no emotion on her face, and even her sadness was suppressed.
But this kind of silence is not a good sign...
"What?" I called her tentatively.
"Find a geomantic treasure for my grandfather and bury him." He Zhi murmured in a low voice.
I breathed a sigh of relief. Finally, He Fei's performance was much stronger than that of Miao Guangyang's daughter.
I told He Pheasant about the last words that Gui Po He had told the paper man Xu, and I felt that I should communicate with Grandma He before deciding how to bury her.
He Zhi was startled for a moment, then nodded.
I didn't know what to say for a moment. I looked at the corpse on the ground out of the corner of my eye, and felt a surge of sourness and suffering in my heart.
This is true for me, let alone the pheasant?
The body must be buried as soon as possible before He Zhi can be persuaded to mourn and submit.
But at this moment, I was also a little confused. It seemed that a lot of time had passed. Why haven't Liu Tianniu, Grandma He and their group come back yet?
Even the paper man Xu didn’t come back? Could it be that there was some other accident?
I quickly took out my pocket watch and looked at the time. It was ten o'clock in the morning.
I slept not long ago, only about an hour.
But Liu Tianniu and the others have been away for an hour, which is a bit long...
"He Zhi, I have to go out and take a look." I said a little uneasily.
He Zhi nodded numbly.
I immediately walked out of the courtyard quickly.
As soon as the results came out, I saw someone sitting at the door of the courtyard.
Isn't this exactly the paper man Xu? !
"Uncle Xu?" I was stunned and asked him why he was here and didn't enter the house?
The paper man Xu had his head down, as if he was taking a nap. When he raised his head again, he exhaled and explained to me that he had just arrived and saw He Zhi in a daze through the crack of the door, so he didn't go in to disturb her. , let her stay with Granny He for a while.
I nodded and immediately asked him if something happened in the village? Why hasn't Grandma He come back with the ghost ladies, and Liu Tianniu hasn't come back either?
The paper man Xu frowned, and he looked at me with a more profound look, and said: "They found the corpses of more than a dozen hags, as well as some of the remains of the watchmen who were killed by hag He, and some people lit candles. Those The ghost woman was very emotional and difficult to control, so she was gathered at the entrance of the village by Granny He."
"Liu Tianniu and Liu Huayan were standing by the hanging river. I don't know what they were looking at or what they discovered."
As I listened to the first half of the sentence, I felt guilty.
But the second half made me change my expression immediately.
Could it be that Liu Tianniu discovered something?
My eyelids couldn't help but beat wildly, and I couldn't stay in front of the door any longer.
"Uncle Xu...you just came back. You can watch over He Zhi. I'll go take a look..."
After saying that, without waiting for the paper man to reply, I ran towards the entrance of the village!
The reaction of the hags was what I expected.
But Liu Tianniu's reaction was completely unexpected!
In half an hour, I rushed to the entrance of the village.
There were at least twenty or thirty corpses on the ground here.
Most of the corpses were hags, and they were neatly placed together.
There was also a pile of corpses lying on top of each other. They were watchmen.
The corpses of those watchmen were almost all completely mutilated, missing limbs and limbs, and there were even several candles lit by people whose heads had been chopped off.
And among the hag's corpses, there were actually two or three that had been burned with human candles.
The hags headed by Granny He spread out into a circle, surrounding the corpses of the hags.
Grandma He was murmuring something in a low voice that I couldn't understand at all.
The rest of the hags also had livid faces, eyes full of resentment, and murmured in low voices.
I had a guess in my mind, is this the witch casting a spell?
I didn't dare to interrupt them and looked up in the direction of the hanging river outside the village.
Although they were dozens of meters apart, I still saw the backs of Liu Tianniu and Liu Huayan at a glance.
The river breeze blows, and Liu Huayan's hair is flying, which is really beautiful.
But I have no interest in appreciating these now.
I'm just afraid that Liu Tianniu will see something...
With his pedantic and stubborn character, why can't he stay by the Xuanhe River every day and want to kill my mother?
Not daring to think any more, I walked quickly towards the outside of the village!
Soon, I arrived not far behind Liu Tianniu and Liu Huayan.
I heard the two of them talking and immediately slowed down...
"I have seen some villagers. Their vitality has been damaged and they will be weak for a long time. Master, let's find a boat and go there by ourselves? There is no big boat here, and Lao Huang can't keep up with us." The speaker was Liu Hua. Smoke, she was asking respectfully.
