Coffin Chen took the five-coin sword from Coffin Xiaohui's hand, looked at the drop of blood carefully, then looked at me and said, "You brought the yellow paper with the talisman, right?"
I nodded quickly, took out some pieces of cut yellow paper from my backpack and handed them to Coffin Chen. He took out a piece of yellow paper, cut it into small squares, and handed it to Coffin Xiaohui.
Coffin Xiaohui took the yellow paper without asking, folded it into a small and exquisite coffin bird, and handed it back to Coffin Chen.
I couldn't help but envy the tacit understanding between them, and I thought to myself, if one day the person I like must have such a tacit understanding with me, he can know what is in my heart with just one look or movement.
think.
"Hu Ling, don't be distracted!" Coffin lightly tapped the table with his finger, "Go get me some water."
"Okay!" I hurriedly recovered and stood up, went out and asked the waiter for a clean small bowl, filled a bowl of water and brought it into the private room.
Coffin Chen stretched out his slender fingers, dipped them in water, and dropped the water on his hand on the dried blood. The water drops gradually turned pink. Coffin Chen placed the folded coffin bird on the water drops. Soon,
All the water drops flowed into the paper bird.
The paper bird's head moved, emitted a sharp bird call, and turned into a small coffin bird with both head and tail feathers.
The little coffin bird flew up from Coffin Chen's palm, circled twice around the private room, and finally landed on the map in front of me, motionless, and turned into a small and delicate paper bird again.
Tracing technique?
I remember that this method was recorded in the "Shengyuan Heavenly Book", which is to fold paper into a small person or animal, and then use the breath of the person you want to find as a medium to find traces of that person.
I lowered my head and looked at the map. Where the paper bird landed, there were a few small words written, "Shouning Village, Xiangyuan County."
Coffin Chen and Coffin Xiaohui also came over to look at the map. Coffin Chen's knotted brows relaxed, "He should be right here!" He picked up the map, looked at it carefully and said, "This place is not very far from here.
, about 400 kilometers, about four hours’ drive, leave now, and you’ll be in Xiangyuan County around five o’clock!”
I quickly stood up and started packing my things, "Let's go, let's take a taxi directly to the bus stop!"
Coffin Chen glanced at me, his face always as cold as ice, "You wait for me here first, I'll go out for a while."
I was a little embarrassed and forgot that even though he was a bird, he still needed to go to the bathroom. I quickly sat down again and said "Okay".
He chuckled twice and returned to the safe buckle.
About ten minutes later, my phone rang. I picked it up and saw that it was a text message from Coffin Chen. It only had two simple words, "Come out!"
I put on my backpack and walked out of the Hunan restaurant. I found a 70% new off-road vehicle parked at the gate. Coffin Chen was sitting in the cab and looked at me and said: "Hu Ling, get in the car!"
I was stunned and rubbed my eyes to make sure I saw it correctly. I quickly opened the door and got in the passenger seat. Only then did I realize that Qiao Xiaohui and Leng Hongxia were also sitting upright in the back seat of the car, looking at me and smiling.
.
"You can do it, Coffin Chen. You can even drive a car!" I fastened my seat belt and asked curiously: "Whose car is this? Don't you have friends here?"
"Rent, six months, fifty thousand!" Coffin Chen said and started the engine.
"Fifty thousand, you can buy a car in just six months!" I felt a little worried about the money and couldn't help but mutter.
"Hu Ling, this is a Hummer worth over one million dollars. You don't even know this car, do you? The price is very fair. You don't even know that Brother Coffchen can bargain with others!"
I smiled awkwardly, "I really don't know what kind of car this is, and I don't pay much attention to these things."
I'm still a little bit stunned in my heart. He is really rich, but it is just a means of transportation. There is really no need to rent such an expensive one.
Coffen Chen's driving skills are very good. It took only three hours to reach the distance of more than 400 kilometers. The scenery along the way was very good. The highway almost passed through the mountains. The mountains were full of evergreen pine trees and scattered villages like
Like ink paintings, they are dotted among the green mountains and green waters, and patches of bamboo forest are nestled against the villages. Although it is already winter, there is still a lush and thriving atmosphere.
No wonder people say that Xiangxi is the place with the most spiritual energy and the most yin energy. Since ancient times, this place has also been the place with the most people in Taoism.
At about four o'clock in the afternoon, the car got off the highway and drove into a quaint small town, Xiangyuan County.
The county town looks smaller than Yunshan County. There are no high-rise buildings. There are a few small buildings with four or five stories high among the bungalows with blue bricks and black tiles. They are the tallest buildings in the county town.
The street is very narrow, just big enough for two cars to drive opposite each other. The shops on the roadside still maintain their quaint appearance, and some even have flags hanging next to attract customers.
There were almost no inns, and there was no chain hotel to be found. It was almost the entire Xiangyuan County before I found a small restaurant with the word "accommodation" written in small letters at the bottom of the flag hanging next to the door.
The restaurant is a two-story building with a small front. The entire wall has been painted a light yellow cream color over time. The two wooden doors are vermilion, half open and half closed. The paint is mottled and peeling off. It instantly reminded me of being
When Chen Shanshan kidnapped the small building on the top of the mountain, she felt a little uncomfortable.
Coffin Chen parked the car outside the door. Coffin Xiaohui and Leng Hongxia hid in the safety button again. I followed Coffin Chen out of the car and walked into the small building.
There are a few square tables sparsely placed in the hall. On each table is a chopstick tube made of bamboo with bamboo chopsticks inserted inside. There is a cement bar about two meters long and about one meter high. There is a slipper hanging on the bar.
The small bamboo sign with different dishes written on it should be the menu of this store. Behind the bar is a row of wooden wine cabinets, which are a bit dark in color. There are two or three bottles of wine scattered here and there, and a huge glass jar with bubbles in it.
Two snakes and some unnamed plants.
Next to the bar is a door leading to the inner room. There is a curtain hanging on the door. The curtain is embroidered with abstract totems. There is an animal running among the auspicious clouds, flowers and birds. I can’t tell what kind of animal it is. The curtain looks a bit thick, as if
Separate two different worlds.
There was no one in the hall and no one behind the bar. I looked around and shouted in through the curtain: "Is there anyone there? Boss?"
"Come on!" A crisp female voice sounded, and the curtain opened, and a middle-aged woman in her forties walked out, wearing a floral short jacket, black trousers, her hair tied back casually, and her skin was fair and round.
There was a smile on his face and he looked kind and approachable.
"Boss boss, can you stay here?" I felt slightly relieved when I saw the look of the boss lady and asked.
"Yes, yes, you are a young couple who are here to travel. Yazi likes to take risks now. We rarely have outsiders come here!" The landlady said with a smile, "There are only three restaurants in the county that can do this.
The restaurant where you stay is ours, which is the cleanest. There are rooms on the second floor, and I will open one for you now!"
"Lady boss, we are brother and sister, we need two rooms!" I explained quickly.
"Oh, it turns out we are brother and sister. Look at my rudeness, so I will open two rooms for you. How many days will you stay? My surname is Hua, so you can just call me Sister Hua!" Sister Hua said with enthusiasm. This chapter has been completed!
