"Son..."
"It's snowing heavily outside..."
"You must have forgotten, right?
When you were five years old, you contracted a cold and fell into hysteria in the middle of the night.
Your mother, I will wrap you up in quilt,
I carried you twenty miles on my back and sent you to the countryside to knock on the door of a doctor to treat you..."
Su Wu listened to the man outside the door talking about the past events of Gou Sheng's family.
But he was slightly moved.
In this current situation,
Not to mention bandits, robbers, and rioters at night,
The most important thing is that there are often spooks at night!
In this situation,
Gou Sheng's mother dared to carry her son to see the doctor at night for the sake of her son who had a high fever?!
It’s true that being a mother makes you strong...
He heard these mournful words,
Already a little moved.
What's more, a little boy is left behind?
Even though he knew that the thing outside the door was not his real mother, let alone his mother's ghost, he burst into tears at that moment, covering his face and sobbing quietly.
He has a child,
Why don't you miss your mother?
call--
Outside the broken window, icy flakes of snow blew in,
Outside, it really seems to be snowing!
This cold wind,
deep cold snow,
brush it on your face,
It even reminded Gou Sheng of his mother who carried him behind her back to look for medicine.
He was filled with guilt,
I couldn't help but turn my head and take a look at the broken window——
I saw a pale face with bulging eyes, a long tongue sticking out of a dark mouth, and a hemp rope wrapped around his neck.
The face stared at Gou Sheng: "Son, you are so heartless——"
Gou Sheng was suddenly frightened out of his wits!
Past memories overlap with current reality,
After giving the last handful of rice to Gou Sheng and cooking it,
My mother hanged herself on the locust tree behind the house!
All of a sudden, Gou Sheng's thinking was chaotic and he was about to scream in surprise.
At this time,
Su Wu turned his neck,
Make him look directly into his eyes,
Red lotuses bloom in the eyes of the thin young man,
Great Virtue’s sexual energy circulates endlessly,
In an instant, all the remaining fears were suppressed,
at the last minute,
He closed his mouth tightly,
No sound!
then,
The face outside the window quickly shriveled up, developed many wrinkles, and its tongue retracted, turning into the face of an old woman.
The old woman stretched her head and looked through the broken window.
The gray eyes saw nothing,
So he turned around slowly,
Move your steps and walk away.
Su Wu stood up slightly,
Watching the old woman slowly walking downstairs through the broken window,
His eyes moved slightly.
At the moment, there was a lantern fire covering the two of them. Although the monster noticed that there were some abnormalities in the two of them, and they seemed to be the same kind as it, in fact, they were very different, but it did not directly show the killing pattern.
To deal with myself and Gou Sheng.
Lantern fire is useful.
However, it also requires people to be able to restrain themselves,
Don’t respond to any of this trick’s actions,
Earlier, Su Wu was huddled in the cowshed, and the wolf handed him a handful of hay for him to chew.
There is actually a big trap in this,
That is to say - ordinary people may be afraid of the terror of the monsters in front of them, and as a last resort, like ordinary cows and horses, they will eat the hay that the old woman puts to their mouths.
However,
Eating hay means responding to the trick,
As soon as you respond to it,
The disguise brought by the lantern fire to itself will be broken instantly,
The next problem we face is how to circumvent this monster's murderous pattern and escape from its strange enveloping area. This is inconsistent with the rice sender's goal of imprisoning monsters with soul-collecting rice.
But what made Su Wu feel a little sad,
This is the performance of this weirdo tonight - it actually probed Gou Sheng's memory,
Turn yourself into a lost mother,
Tell Gou Sheng the past through the door!
Looking at the situation just now,
Gou Sheng was obviously about to be persuaded by it!
In this matter,
What frightened Su Wu the most was why this ghost knew Gou Sheng's past memories? How could it tell all the details?
Can it read Gou Sheng's thoughts?
If so,
Why can't it read my thoughts?
Or,
Does it really have the memory of Gou Sheng’s mother?
If it has the memory of Gou Sheng’s mother,
So can it be regarded as the soul of Gou Sheng's mother?
——What is the change after death?
Or is there another source?
Where do they come from?
After being exposed to strange things many times, this question gradually appeared in Su Wu's thinking and gradually took root in his heart.
but,
Now he can't even come into contact with a trickster at close range or for a long time.
How can we talk about exploring such profound questions as "why does the mystery arise and where does it come from"?
Biologists want to understand the evolution of an animal,
It is necessary to analyze the various habits of living things,
habits of closely related animals,
Use a large number of samples to build data models,
Go back to the roots.
To trace the source of a ghost, it is also necessary to use this method and constantly sum up experience to get some clues.
But now Su Wu does not have this condition.
——Perhaps after truly learning how to imprison a trickster,
He can use this to gain experience.
Unravel your inner mysteries.
outside the window,
Under the dark sky,
The old woman staggered to the foot of the wooden archway in Tanjia Village.
Her figure was covered by the rising smoke,
Gradually disappear,
Melted into the bowl of rice grains.
Su Wu stared closely at the bowl of soul-collecting rice - before coming here this time, the master had already said that if the grains of the soul-collecting rice did not continue to collapse, it meant that Gui was temporarily trapped in the rice grains.
But what is the final result?
Still have to watch the next day.
If the bowl of rice appears steamed, rancid, moldy, or any other abnormality the next day,
And the porcelain bowl felt bitingly cold in my hand,
Then there must be something in the bowl.
——Why not when you see no rice grains falling out of the bowl that night?
Are you going to check the situation in the bowl?
The master replied: The big tricks have much stronger control over their own charms than the small ones. They can inadvertently spread the charm and change the nature of the soul-collecting rice, but the charm spilled out must be extremely
subtle,
At first there was almost no visible change,
You have to wait until the next day to see the results.
and,
Dagui has just entered the soul collecting rice,
It has not yet closely connected with the nine orifices of the soul-collecting rice,
After sensing other auras approaching, it is still possible to break free from the soul-collecting rice.
At this time, you must not 'disturb' it.
In the rough porcelain bowl under the wooden archway,
A handful of incense burns suddenly,
‘Calm and calm’ in the bowl,
No rice grains were seen falling out.
Su Wu stared at the bowl for a long time.
Not seeing any changes in it, he breathed a sigh of relief, curled up and said to Gou Sheng, "Go to sleep, that witch won't be able to come out. We can take it back the next day."
"Okay, brother, you should go to bed early." After staying up until now, Gou Sheng was already sleepy. He nodded after hearing this.
He turned sideways and faced the wall, curled up in the firewood pile and fell asleep.
Su Wu also leaned against the wall and closed his eyes slightly.
The wind howled outside the window,
Cold wind was constantly pouring into the broken house,
But he himself is like a furnace, still blowing out a warm breath in such a cold night,
Protect him from the cold and heat of normal weather.
He collected his thoughts,
Gradually fall asleep.
But at this time,
There was a burst of messy footsteps outside!
Tap tap tap!
Tap tap tap tap!
pace?!
Su Wu suddenly opened his eyes,
The eyes glowed in the darkness.
He carefully identified the alternating footsteps,
I heard that two people were running over from the west one behind the other.
quietly,
Su Wu poked his head out of the broken window,
In the blinding darkness of the night, he saw a woman wearing bright red clothes, running staggeringly,
Behind her followed a short, stocky figure,
The man had an ordinary face,
Only there is a big mole on the side of the mouth,
In the dark night, Su Wu could clearly see even the black hair on the big mole around his mouth.
"Don't... don't run away!"
"Ahead is Tanjiacun——"
"I'll let you go! Don't go and die -"
The dwarf's seemingly sturdy figure is extremely rare in the countryside today - even so, he couldn't catch up with the woman in the red wedding dress in front of him.
When approaching the entrance to the west of Tanjia Village,
He stopped suddenly,
I wanted to raise my voice again, but had to lower my voice.
The woman in the red wedding dress in front paused at the entrance of the village when she heard his words.
Looking back,
Seeing the dwarf still grinning and waiting for him outside,
Where can I show myself?
She gritted her teeth,
He really took a step into Tanjia Village!
"Eh!"
"Bastard maid!"
"Why didn't your parents wrap your feet for you?!"
When the short and stocky man saw the woman dressed as a bride, she ran into the famous and feared Tanjia Village.
His face suddenly turned ferocious,
He took out the short knife from his waist with one hand.
The fire of desire in my eyes will be extinguished,
But the anger surged up again,
Holding the knife, he ran with all his strength and pounced on the bride!
The moment of anger and irritation made him speed up suddenly. The bride in front was frightened by the reputation of Tanjiacun, so she hesitated, but slowed down a little.
He was caught up with him in ten steps,
approaching,
The knife pierces the bride's back of the heart!
"Letting you run away will also help others!"
"You go to see the King of Hell for me!"
Whoosh!
The light of the knife wiped,
The dim shadows mingled on the ground,
But it is faster than the light of a sword.
Two pythons suddenly stood up from the shadows, opening their pale teeth,
Swallow them both in one go!
In just a few minutes,
The commotion here returned to silence.
in a broken house,
Su Wu glanced at Gou Sheng, who was huddled in the corner. He had already fallen asleep.
then,
The darkness before him squirmed,
Two figures spit out.
It was the 'bride' and the short man who were chasing after each other at the entrance of the village.
If these two men were allowed to chase into the village, they would definitely disturb the secrets hidden inside when they passed by the wooden archway, ruining the preparations of Su Wu and his team.
Yes,
He took the first step and dragged these two people into the shadow world.
Considering that both of them are ordinary people, if they stayed in the shadow world for several hours, their bodies would be cold.
So he released them in the broken house again,
Just watching the two of them face each other, they were terrified and struggling.
Su Wu frowned,
I found some straw and balled it up to block their mouths.
Pull off some of their clothes,
Twist into two strands of rope,
tie them up,
Thrown in the corner.
The shabby house was quiet and quiet, without a single sound.
Su Wu took away the knife from the strong man,
He leaned in the corner, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
…
A night of silence.
On the second day,
When the sun shines into the dilapidated house,
Gou Sheng woke up and looked at the 'short man' who had crawled to the door and the 'bride' who had crawled to another corner.
He blinked,
Can't figure out what's going on.
Fortunately,
At this time Su Wu also woke up.
"Brother, this is..." Gou Sheng asked Su Wu in a low voice.
"These two people,
When I ran to Tanjia Village last night, I saw that they couldn't find a place to rest, so I left them here." Su Wu smiled and spoke very calmly.
Gou Sheng blinked again,
Looking into Su Wu’s eyes,
Inexplicably, I felt that what my brother said was right.
So he nodded: "It must be because they are afraid of the sly, so I asked my brother to plug their mouths and tie them with ropes to prevent them from running around and screaming and startling the sly that was sealed in the rice?"
"Yes." Su Wu smiled.
"Brother is right." Gou Sheng also grinned.
Su Wu rubbed his head,
He ignored the two uninvited guests who were looking at him with great fright.
Instead, he walked out of the broken house first,
Go to the wooden arch downstairs,
Picking up the bowl of rancid rice.
As expected, the rice grains were steamed into rice.
It's freezing cold,
The rice was a dirty yellow color that made people nauseous.
That old woman - that sly, has been imprisoned in the current bowl of rice.
Who would have thought,
A bowl of rice meant for human consumption,
How can you keep a trap inside and not be able to come out to cause harm to people?
Su Wu was filled with emotion,
The subtle charm of the coarse porcelain bowl could not hurt him at all, so he still put the rice back into the basket, slung it over his shoulder, and walked back to the house.
"The trick is here!
The matter is done,
Let's go home!" Su Wu patted the food basket and said to Gou Sheng with a smile.
Gou Sheng looked at the rancid soul-sucking rice in the food basket.
The eyes are also exciting!
The little boy was about to speak,
There was a rustling sound next to me - swoosh, swoosh!
But it was the bride who kept kicking the firewood on the ground with her feet, trying hard to make a noise and attract Su Wu's attention!
Su Wu heard the sound and looked towards her,
She looked at Su Wu with a little fear in her eyes, but then anger surged into her eyes.
A pair of rounded almond eyes stared at Su Wu.
