Chapter 22 Langzhong
Bai Jiuyan told me something when he left. He told me not to go out before my birthday or after sunset.
Of course I listened, he is a monster and I am a human being, and I am not stupid to fight against him.
And as long as I stay in the village for one day, I don’t want to go anywhere except inside the house.
Don't talk to me about building relationships with neighbors and visiting relatives, I don't have any need.
When I passed the rain shelter, my grandma was still waiting for me inside.
I walked over and shouted: "Grandma."
Grandma's eyes were fixed on the jade pendant on my chest, and she asked anxiously: "Did you use your blood to warm this jade pendant?"
Her expression was very serious, but I didn't dare to lie.
I nodded and said, "Yes. I made a plan in the Xiao family. It was a lie that Mr. Xiao helped me repair the fox pendant, but it was true that he wanted to steal the fox pendant."
"How could it be? It shouldn't be." Grandma was a little confused. She was too busy to go home with me first and kept urging me to tell her the story.
After I finished speaking, she already had tears in her eyes: "My Sheshe, your life is really miserable."
I asked: "What's wrong?"
I got some information from my grandma.
The fox pendant has a spirit, and there is a fox fairy in it. The fairy family is very particular about this kind of contract. Once I nourish him with the warmth of my blood, I have reached a certain contract with him. Only in that dangerous situation
Come on, there is nothing I can do about it.
Grandma said as she wiped her tears and pulled me home. She was limping when she walked, and I realized she was injured.
"Grandma, you are injured." I pulled her to prevent her from moving forward. Blood flowed from my trouser legs and dripped on the ground.
Grandma said: "It doesn't matter."
I clearly saw that her face was pale, how could she not be in trouble.
"No, grandma, wait a minute." I pulled grandma to sit on a boulder and opened her trouser legs.
At first I thought it was scratched by some grass, but it was obviously not the case. The wounds were two small holes, and the surrounding area had swollen into a big piece. I could tell at a glance that it was a snake bite, or a venomous snake.
It was true that I was in the village when I was a child, but I heard that there were cabbage snakes in the mountains, but I had never heard of venomous snakes in the mountains. Now I had no idea.
I just heard that it would be helpful to make a cross on the wound and suck out the poisonous blood.
I thought about doing it, but my grandma refused to let me do it. She tore off a piece of cloth and tied it up, and asked me to take her back to the village quickly.
He said that someone in the village had been bitten before, and it was the old doctor in the village who cured him.
I couldn't resist her, so I had to do as she said. Fortunately, it was not far from the village, and I quickly took her to the doctor's house.
I patted the door anxiously, and the person who opened the door was the old doctor in his fifties. I remember that he was a good person in the past. Maybe it was the kindness of a doctor. Not only was he kind-hearted, he was also famous for his kindness in the village.
There was a time when the harvest in the village was not good and someone got sick. He also helped people see a doctor first, and the money could be paid in installments or something.
But this is all about treating others. As for me, who everyone calls and beats, although they have never bullied me, they never interact with them.
Several times when I got sick, my grandma went to him to get medicine. She also pretended to be sick and bought the medicine.
So I really don’t know what this person’s attitude is exactly.
I said: "Uncle Hu, my grandma was bitten by a snake. Please help her take a look. I'll go home and get the money, okay?"
I didn't dare to look up when he was talking, and I didn't know what his expression was. I only heard him say: "Snake bite? Bring him in and let me take a look."
I was extremely grateful. I took my grandma’s hand and put it around my neck, and then I was about to step into the house.
It was he who grabbed me and asked, "Are you Hu...Hu Ningshe?"
I have changed a lot over the years. He must have thought of my grandma. I felt a little guilty for a moment. I wish I had known I was lying.
What's the use? He already knows.
My tone turned into a plea: "Uncle Hu, please save my grandma."
"This morning's bad luck!" The old man's wife rushed out of the house with a broom in her hand: "Hu Ningshe! Is it you?"
I needed their help, so I knelt down directly: "Please, save my grandma. I beg you, every mistake is my fault, and I will repay you."
"Hu Qingsheng! You are from Hujia Village. You know his family's affairs. I don't want to get into trouble with anything dirty."
I thought to myself, it's over.
Grandma may have not slept all day, and she caught a cold last night. As soon as I brought her to the door of the old doctor's house, she fainted.
"Okay, you go home and get the money."
The doctor's daughter-in-law stamped her feet anxiously on the side: "Are you confused or something? You don't know about his family's affairs? You are an only son, you should think clearly!"
"Your grandma, I will save her. But remember, I am saving her for Hujia Village. You are a monster and will bring disaster to the village. You owe the village a debt of gratitude, and you must find a way to repay it."
I nodded desperately: "I know, I will. As long as I can save my grandma, I can do anything."
"Okay."
I heard him say okay, so I picked up my grandma and started to walk into his house.
But the old doctor said coldly: "Just leave it outside, there's no need to enter the house."
I feel a little bitter in my heart. Even if I am used to it, I will still feel sad.
I bit my lip and said, "I'm going to get the money."
As soon as I turned my head, I heard the old man's wife spitting at me and sweeping the broom a few more times.
I don't care, as long as they can save grandma, I don't care about anything.
The old doctor really had some skills. He squeezed out the poisonous blood and applied some herbs.
I took my grandma back home.
Before I left, I heard the old man’s daughter-in-law yelling at the top of her lungs: "Hu Zi! You don’t look at the road when you walk! You hang your head every day, there is money on the ground! You have a pair of eyes to see things, how can you?"
Don't be like your father, only your father can't see clearly what everyone in the village sees."
These words were obviously meant for me, but I secretly pretended not to hear them and was not qualified to refute them.
The fact that I am a demon wife and the Sangmenxing has been recognized by the village for more than ten years. It is useless to refute it, so why bother to find some unpleasantness.
No, not now.
Although I thought so in my heart, I still looked back.
The old man's son looks to be eleven or twelve years old. He is two heads taller than me. He has a sallow complexion and is as skinny as a stick. Especially when walking, he likes to bend his body, making him look like he has a hunchback.
I have seen many children in the city like this. They especially like to play with their mobile phones while walking. Some have seen their mobile phones fall into ditches, and some have seen their mobile phones crash into trees...
However, in a place like this village, where there are no mobile phones at home, it is really unusual for a child to have a hunchback.
The old man’s wife glared at me, and I had no choice but to look away, but just when my eyes swept across Huzi again, a terrifying scene appeared...
