"Wait!" Ling Yun also knew that the situation was very dangerous. Even if you had never been there, you could imagine how many dangers there were lurking in the mountains and forests at night.
Huzi turned back with a puzzled look and looked at Ling Yun, "Sister-in-law, I know that you and Brother Youting are newly married, and I'm worried about him. Brother Youting, otherwise you can stay at home while we go into the mountains."
Su Youting also looked at Ling Yun with some doubts. After spending the past two days together, he felt that Ling Yun was not a confused person who didn't care about priorities, at least not the current Ling Yun.
Seeing that they had misunderstood what he meant, Ling Yun quickly explained, "Hunters set traps all over the mountain. How do you know where Uncle Lin has gone? This mountain is so big, and the people are as chaotic as headless flies." It’s not a waste of time to look for it.”
Su Youting was the first to understand what Ling Yun meant, "Could it be that you have other ideas?"
At the critical moment when there was no other way, Su Youting really hoped that the old man with the white beard in Ling Yun's mouth was true and could come out to help find a solution.
The Lin family and the Su family have always been good friends. They usually take good care of Su Youting and his son, who are orphans and widowed. Hu Zi is more like the second son of the Chen family.
Ling Yun trotted into the kitchen quickly, took a flat-bottomed basket usually used to dry vegetables, grabbed several handfuls of plant ash from the stove and stuffed it into it, carefully smoothed it out little by little, and brought it out.
"Huzi and Uncle Lin are connected by blood. If you lend me a drop of blood, I can find Uncle Lin's approximate location."
Huzi couldn't believe this. He had never heard of it since he was a child. If this method was really effective, even if he was asked to drain a bowl of blood right now, let alone a drop of blood, he wouldn't frown.
Can……
"Sister-in-law, time is tight now, so please stop making trouble."
It was obvious that he didn't believe Ling Yun's words, but Su Youting's eyes flickered on the side.
Ling Yun really wanted to help, and was also very worried about Uncle Lin's safety. At this moment, she wanted to go up and get blood. For a while, she couldn't explain why she had such strange abilities, and it was difficult to win Hu Zi's trust.
He looked at Su Youting with begging eyes.
Su Youting asked solemnly and expressionlessly with a cold face, "Are you sure?"
"90% sure!" There was only a 10% chance of failure, unless Huzi was not Uncle Lin's flesh and blood, but she didn't dare to say this.
It was obvious that Su Youting had always been the eldest brother among this group of young people. He directly grabbed the dumbfounded Huzi, circled his neck, pulled one of his wrists, and motioned to Ling Yun to hurry up and ask where he wanted. Get the blood quickly.
Huzi looked in disbelief. He wondered how Brother Youting, who had always been wise and powerful and known as the brains of their group, would believe Sister-in-law Lingyun's strange method today and directly become an accomplice?
"Brother Youting, you..."
The expressions on the faces of several young people were all surprised. Su Youting was also a little anxious. He shouted to Ling Yun in a rough voice, "Why are you standing there in a daze? It's important to find someone first! Hurry!"
Only then did Ling Yun understand that Su Youting believed in him. He had already stood on his side without asking anything. This was a kind of trust that did not require explanation.
She pinched a stick of incense used to incense the Stove Lord during the festival and held it between the index and middle fingers of her right hand. The whole stick was trembling as if it would be broken at any moment.
He was mumbling something, speaking very fast, and Su Chen, who was the closest, could still hear a little bit clearly, "...the jade illuminates the clear stage, and with my head raised three feet high, the passing gentleman will mercifully lead the way and help me find the person..."
I pinched the scent of grass from left to right and stroked it from beginning to end. The scent of grass changed inexplicably. It was straight, like a steel needle, and it was directly pierced into Huzi's grasped finger. Huzi was in pain. Yo.
I saw Ling Yun holding the end of his hair with his free hand, and pulled out several hairs neatly. He couldn't see clearly how it was done, so he pulled out a fulcrum on the bamboo basket, lit the grass incense with a fire stick, and inserted it into the hair. middle.
The grass fragrance seemed to be alive, with its own ideas, and began to move back and forth left and right.
Seeing such a magical scene, Huzi and the other boys immediately went into the mountain without any fuss. Su Youting also looked happy. It seemed that Ling Yun's little daughter-in-law's method really worked.
At this moment, Ling Yun started to chase people away, "We are divided into two groups. Hu Zi, you guys will go to the first peak to look for people first. Youting and I will go up to the middle peak to look for people."
Huzi and the others all looked at Su Youting, obviously asking for his opinion. Su Youting considered it and said, "Listen to your sister-in-law, you go first and remember that you must come back to gather when the moon is in the sky, and you are not allowed to spend the night on the mountain. .”
Ling Yun also continued to warn, "There are no people on the mountain at night, and the miasma is breeding. You two cannot be separated under any circumstances. Remember, you must never turn back!"
Paper and pens are precious, and these are rarely found in ordinary farm families. Fortunately, Su Youting is literate, but he is not ostentatious at ordinary times. He still has some remaining letter paper and pen and ink at home. Ling Yun quickly went into the house to write and draw, and took out three pieces of paper. , with still wet ink stains on it, folded it up and gave it to Huzi and the other three teenagers.
"Don't open it, hold it in your hand, don't throw it away, keep my words in mind, don't separate, don't turn back!"
Mrs. Su Chen also took out two oil-paper lanterns and put new candles in them. She lit one and gave it to Hu Zi. She also warned, "Don't be too impatient when you go into the mountains to find someone. Remember your sister-in-law's words. She is our family’s lucky star.”
After Huzi and the others thanked Mrs. Chen, they quickly walked out of the yard and walked towards the mountain. After a while, the light in the dark night was no longer visible.
At this time, the grass incense on the bamboo basket has been half burned, and a series of crooked traces like insects crawling on the grass and tree ashes have been left.
There were no outsiders in the yard, so Mrs. Chen asked, "Daughter, what are you doing?"
"Mom, this is a searching technique that suddenly appeared in my mind. It seems to have been taught by the old man with a white beard. When I encountered Uncle Lin, I suddenly felt blessed and knew how to use it."
Ling Yun used the secret technique of the metaphysics family that was not passed down to the outside world, the blood trace shrinking technique.
"When can we leave?"
Su Youting was really anxious, fearing that something might happen to Uncle Lin because he couldn't go up the mountain with him. He was even more worried that if they didn't rescue him in time, he would regret it for the rest of his life.
"Wait a moment, it will be fine soon." Ling Yun also knew that time was tight, but there was no need to rush this method. He had to wait for the incense to burn out and point out the specific location of the person he was looking for at this moment.
Time passed slowly minute by minute under the gaze of the family of three. Finally, the last bloody flame left by the fragrant grass was completely extinguished. Ling Yun covered the trace with paper as quickly as possible.
Su Youting cleverly raised the lantern to help illuminate it. Ling Yun carefully traced the trace of the grass scent on the paper, and pulled Su Youting to go out.
Su Chen was worried and walked all the way to the gate, "You two, be careful on the road. If you can't find it, come back early!"
Su Youting looked at the little daughter-in-law beside him who looked like a little potato, frowned and asked, "What are you doing with a girl who is not as tall as a big stone?"
Ling Yun knew that this guy actually meant well, but he didn't know how to express it. When he spoke, he preferred to speak harshly. He shook the white paper in his hand with pride and said, "Can you understand this without me?"
"Be careful when you get to the mountain. Don't expect me to worry about you little dwarf. Don't hold me back, or I'll throw you up the mountain to feed the wolves!"
When Mrs. Chen heard her son's unkind words, she immediately became a motherly mother and said, "You stinky boy, you have protected my daughter for me. If I lose a hair, I won't settle the score with you when I come back!"
Then he changed his tone in a second and warned Ling Yun kindly, "There are grasses and rocks everywhere on the mountain. You, a girl, must be careful. When you get tired from walking, just ask Youting to carry you!"
