"call....."
I flicked the cigarette ashes out of the car, stared at the road and said, "Don't be in a daze, it's nothing serious."
Miniang Razhen has been in a trance since she got in the car.
She looked at me and asked, "What if the police find me? What should I say?"
"How to find you? The place is in the wild mountains and there are no witnesses or surveillance. There is not even a streetlight within ten kilometers. Where can I find you?"
"Even if I find you, remember it!"
"I didn't kill anyone! You didn't kill anyone either! We were all in self-defense!"
Her eyes were dull, and she suddenly became excited and grabbed my arm! The grip was tight.
"I'm afraid! I'm afraid! I'm afraid!"
Her tone was very urgent.
I stopped the car, grabbed her hand and said, "Look into my eyes. Do you think I'm afraid?"
She nodded.
.......
After thinking about it carefully, I said: "Otherwise, don't go to your aunt's house. Yajiang is too close to Kangding. You can go somewhere else to avoid the limelight. Wait for a while to check the situation and make sure everything is fine before you come back." .”
She hurriedly asked: "But where can I go? I only have five hundred yuan in savings, and I don't have any relatives in other places to go to."
I thought to myself that I had to be careful about this. What if she was caught and confessed to me?
A plan comes into mind.
"How about you go to Nanping with me? It's at least a thousand kilometers away from Kangding. You can live in the small wooden house in the hunting goose forest. No one can find you there."
I turned around and asked the snake girl for her opinion, "Is it okay?"
The snake girl glanced at Miniang Razen, shook her head and said no.
"Sister! Please help Brother Xiang! You know that when you help her, you are helping me!"
The snake girl didn't know what was going on. She suddenly said angrily: "No outsiders have ever lived in our cabin. Brother Xiang, you can let her live there if you want. I want money. It's a thousand yuan a day."
She said this with a serious expression, not like she was joking.
"A thousand a day!"
"Your wooden house is more expensive than living in Shangri-La!"
She added: "I'm not joking. It's okay not to give money. There is another way. You can just make my mother nod and agree."
I said helplessly: "Can it be cheaper? I'll give you 100 a day."
"No, a thousand a day, not a penny less."
I don’t know what happened to her today. Did she eat explosives?
I decided to hold her steady first and wait until we got there.
Many young girls with little social experience are like this. After encountering a major incident, they will be very panicked and scared, and they will be confused and confused. I said you come with me, and Miniang Rajen nodded directly and said yes. This was a bit like kidnapping. If I were a bad person, I might sell her.
But having said that, in the final analysis, the cause of this matter is my fault. She is just an ordinary person who was involved, and she is an innocent person.
I threw the bloody hydraulic pliers into an unknown river on the way, and no one could find it.
...
Two days later, I drove her to Nanping. I was supposed to arrive in the middle of the night yesterday, but I took a sidetrack.
The car smelled very bad. The smell was indescribable. It was worse than rotten eggs in the summer.
The old lady has gone bad.
Miniang Razhen vomited more than a dozen times on the road. Her originally rosy face was now extremely pale, which made people feel distressed.
"Fuck! Bro! Bro!"
Suddenly, a man riding an electric bike on the side of the road knocked hard on my door and said, "Brother, why does your bike smell so bad! Are you a poop guy?"
I was in a bad mood now, so I immediately turned around and yelled back: "You're the one who pooped! What does it have to do with you that I pooped?"
"Look at you! How are you cursing! You are cursing me, believe it or not, I called the police."
"Don't misunderstand me!"
I quickly got out of the car and handed over the cigarettes: "Brother, I'm just kidding. You're right. My car just came back from delivering fertilizer, and it does stink a bit."
After taking my cigarette, he muttered something and left.
I watched this man walk through the traffic light and bump into another man. They seemed to know each other, and they turned back and pointed to my car, chatting quietly.
The man I was chatting with was in his fifties, wearing glasses and black clothes. I saw him slowly walking over.
When he was still two meters away from my car, he stopped and sniffed.
Seeing this, I was ready to drive away.
This man ran over quickly, grabbed my car door, and knocked on the glass.
"What's wrong?" I rolled down the car glass a little.
He turned sideways and peered into the car.
I stretched out my hand to cover his eyes and said dissatisfiedly, "What are you looking at? We know each other?"
He smiled and said: "Young man, you don't dare to put a dead person in the car like this. I smell it. The person who died in your car must be a woman, right? She died abnormally and was resentful. Where did you drive from? I'm curious. How come nothing happened to you? Did you bring some powerful amulet?"
After hearing this series of words from him, I was stunned.
How did he know there was a body in the car? You also know it’s a female corpse, smell it? What is abnormal death?
In short, what he suddenly said frightened the passenger, Mi Niang Razhen.
I felt better, so I pretended to be calm and asked, "You're mistaken. I just came back from the field and there was a smell because I pooped several bags of stinky fertilizer."
The middle-aged man smiled and said, "Where is this place? This is Nanping."
"Nanping Nanping, resentment is hard to calm down."
"You are protected by something powerful. This girl should be a relative of the deceased. As for this one..."
Through the gap in the car window, he stared at Mi Niang Razhen and said: "Girl, you are prone to accidents recently, so be careful."
"That's all I can say. Take it back for burial as soon as possible. Burn more paper money and burn more incense. If anything goes wrong after the burial, come to Sanfu Funeral Home to see me. Remember to come in the evening. I'm always there. Night shift, not available during the day.”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Looking at the back of this person, my face changed slightly, thinking that this is not true, right?
drop......! A blaring trumpet.
Suddenly, an off-road vehicle honking its horn rushed over on Jianshe Road at a very fast speed. The man I was talking to was crossing the road and was instantly hit by the jeep!
Crackling!
The bumper of the car fell off and it was a mess!
The man spun around in the air and was hit by a car and flew ten meters away! Under the horrified gaze from the road, he fell heavily to the ground and became motionless.
My eyes were dull, watching the scene at the traffic light intersection.
Glancing in the rearview mirror.
I saw the old lady leaning quietly on the back seat, her upper body covered with clothes, her neck turned sideways, just looking at the traffic light!
"ha....."
I must be hallucinating. I saw that my breath turned white. This was not winter, this was autumn.
"Where are you going!"
At this moment, Miniang Razhen suddenly opened the car door and ran out.
I ran to catch up with her.
"I've had enough! I want to go home! I killed someone! I'm going to surrender!"
There were people coming and going on the street. I immediately covered her mouth, pulled her to the side of the road and said, "Don't be stupid! As long as you listen to me, nothing will happen! In a month or two, when the situation calms down, You go back to Kangding."
"I don't!"
She shouted with red eyes: "I don't want to live in a cabin with them!"
"Okay! Okay! Don't stop!"
"I'll open a room for you in the hotel. You can stay there as long as you want. I'm giving you five thousand yuan. You can buy whatever you need."
She stopped making trouble now.
I heard sirens in the distance. Someone must have called the police and an ambulance was nearby.
I stood there for a few minutes, watching people get out of the city hospital's firetruck after it stopped, and hurriedly carried the person onto a stretcher. He probably wasn't dead, but if he was dead, he should be covered with a white cloth.
The ambulance left with its sirens blaring, and I heard people talking around me.
"Hey, let me tell you, this old Du is really unlucky. He managed to cross the road so well and was hit by a car."
Another person said: "The driver of the SUV was drinking. Didn't you smell the alcohol just now? By the way, do you know this person?"
"I know you, Lao Du. Du is bold. He has worked the night shift in the old funeral home for more than 20 years. Who doesn't know Nan Pingfan? He is the one who has died in the family. He earns a few hundred yuan a month. That means he is brave enough to do it. , it’s over now, let the car crash like this, maybe you will be paralyzed in the future.”
I said to myself: "It turns out that the person who had the car accident was named Du..."
The old lady couldn't do it without burying it. If she dragged it on for a long time, there might be insects.
The Snake King has always been a positive image of God in the minds of the Fujian and Yue people, otherwise they would not have built a temple for the Snake King. The mysterious and unique snake culture here is unique in the world.
These cultural influences have been deeply rooted in the hearts of Zhanghu people. Let me describe it this way, its nature is somewhat similar to the local mountain temples in our north.
There is also the Yangli Snake King Palace in Minhou County, which is no smaller than the Zhanghu Snake King Temple, so people here love snakes. The Snake Girl has no relatives, but whenever a Snake Girl dies in the past, the Snake King Temple will attach great importance to it. They will send "Fangzheng" to perform a land and water safety ceremony for the dead Snake Girl.
"Fangzheng" is a unique priesthood of Snake King Temple. In fact, the monk changed his name. As for why he is called "Fangzheng", I am not sure. According to legend, it is related to the ancient man named Fang Xiaoru.
I asked the snake girl on the way, and she said that the Snake King Temple already knew that her mother had passed away, and would send "Fang Zheng" to help tonight. This has been a long-standing tradition.
The ambulance left, and the onlookers slowly dispersed.
I turned around and walked back.
It was now mid-afternoon, and my poor Xiali car had no car film, so the sunlight hit the car glass and caused reflections.
I seem to...see it vaguely.
The snake girl rolled her eyes, put her hands on the rear glass, and was staring at me.
