After the God of the Jade Buddha was shattered, Meng Yiqi's voice did not disappear immediately, but said to us again: "My child has been born successfully, and it will no longer haunt Ma Chaoxian's wife, so you
You can leave here with peace of mind."
After saying that, Meng Yiqi's voice completely disappeared.
And we also took a look at the three small white jade snakes. They didn't move at all, as if they were dead.
I turned around and looked at Mai Xiaorou and asked, "Are those three stillborn fetuses?"
Mai Xiaorou shook her head and said, "That's probably not the case. Meng Yiqi worked so hard to give birth to a fetus that lasted for a hundred years, so how could it be a stillbirth? Moreover, those three little white jade snakes are agile and should be alive, but their bodies are white jade after all.
, being able to move around freely may not be possible for the time being."
I nodded and then asked: "If we can't do it for the time being, does that mean they might move in the future?"
Mai Xiaorou nodded and said: "It's not uncommon for dead things to become spirits. For example, the Pipa Spirit in the Legend of the Gods and the Monkey King in Journey to the West are all dead things that turn into spirits, not to mention the three in front of us.
The little snake is not a simple dead thing, but is born from the womb of the soul!"
I nodded again to show my understanding.
Originally, my Snake King Pendant had been unresponsive, but after I finished talking to Mai Xiaorou, it conveyed a lazy emotion to me. That emotion was very complicated, slightly interested, but also filled with a kind of laziness.
Contempt.
The Snake King Pendant reacted, and the three little white jade snakes seemed to react too, and began to flash white light continuously.
I asked Mai Xiaorou what I should do. She shook her head and said, "I have never seen anything born from a soul fetus. This is the first time. How do I know what to do?"
We looked at each other for a while, and then I decided to wrap the broken jade and the three small white jade snakes with the yellow cloth on the altar, and then take it with me.
Holding it in my hand, I still had some doubts and said, "There won't be any danger."
Mai Xiaoju said: "Mother Mengyi won't lie to us, it's not a big problem."
Hearing what Mai Xiaorou said, I put the broken jade and white jade snake into a backpack I was carrying.
After collecting these things, Mai Xiaorou said, "Okay, let's rest until dawn and then go on our way."
Not long after we got down to the third floor, Ma Chaoxian came to see us and asked us how the situation of the Jade Buddha was.
I said, it was broken.
Ma Chaoxian's eyes were filled with regret and reluctance. He looked at me and asked, "Can you show me those fragments?"
As soon as I said yes, Mai Xiaorou said: "Have you forgotten what the Queen of Yichang ordered you? Then she has paid enough for your Ma family over the years, and now she has nothing to do with your Ma family anymore.
If you still refuse to give up, I'm afraid disasters will follow, and by then even Chen Yu and I may not be able to save the fetus in your wife's belly."
Hearing what Mai Xiaorou said, Ma Chaoxian shook his head and said: "Okay, I won't read it, but can you tell me what your arrangements are next? Are you going to bring the beautiful body of Lady Yi Clan to the
Where?"
I said: "Of course this is the place to be taken."
Seeing that he couldn't get anything out of us, Ma Chaoxian continued to change the subject and asked: "What about my wife's matter? The beautiful body of Lady Yichang was broken. Will those snake spirits take the opportunity to come back and take revenge?"
Ma Chaoxian still thought that the snake spirits that were pestering his wife were the three evil dragons from Sanjiao Village, but this was not the case.
Judging from the current situation, although Meng Yiqian didn't make it too clear, we have guessed that the one who is pestering Ma Chaoxian's wife is the father of the three evil dragons, and the evil dragon has never tried to kill him from the beginning.
Meaning, otherwise, I'm afraid Ma Chaoxian's wife would have been gone long ago.
Then again, why did the father of the three evil dragons torture Ma Chaoxian's daughter-in-law? Could it be that he knew early on that what he did would attract us, and then helped him bring the broken jade and the three white jade snakes back to San
Jiao Village?
If this is really the case, then the snake spirit is too powerful.
I was thinking about these things, and Mai Xiaorou said to Ma Chaoxian: "Don't worry, the snake spirit will not come to haunt your wife again. As long as you take care of it, there should be no problem."
Next, Ma Chaoxian asked a lot of random questions before going to rest.
Early the next morning, Mai Xiaorou and I got up early and left without saying goodbye. We did this mainly because we were afraid that Ma Chaoxian would pester us again and ask questions for how long.
After driving out of Handan, we went directly to the west. According to the information given to us by Li Guidao, the three villages of Jingjiao, Chijiao and Hejiao are just to the west of Handan, but they are in the deep mountains of the southern section of Taihang Mountain.
It will take some time to get there.
As soon as we left Handan City, Ma Chaoxian called us. He asked us why we left like that, and I said, "We were in a hurry to go do something for Lady Yi Cang."
Ma Chaoxian didn't say much, he just said, let's do our best to serve the Queen of Yi.
There is no need for Ma Chaoxian to give any instructions, Mai Xiaorou and I will handle it naturally.
After hanging up the phone call from Ma Chaoxian, I breathed a long sigh of relief. To be honest, when I first met him, I really didn't expect him to be so stubborn and long-winded.
We turned on the navigation on our mobile phone and drove for more than two hours. We got into the depths of the Taihang Mountains. Not long after, we arrived at Zhongjingjiao Village, Sanjiao Village. This village is not big, with only a dozen households, and most of them are
The old people left behind don’t even have children.
When we got here, Mai Xiaorou and I began to adjust our breaths to sense the surrounding situation. The range of my perception was very small, so I couldn't find anything at all. The range of Mai Xiaorou's perception was large, so I would ask her every once in a while if she had discovered anything.
What.
Mai Xiaorou shook her head.
We also asked the old man in the village why this village is called Jingjiao Village. The old man said that he couldn’t tell. He said that although Jingjiao Village is not a big village, it has a history of almost a thousand years. Why is it called Jingjiao Village?
There are really no legends passed down in Jiao Village.
But the old man knew the story of Yi Xi killing the evil dragon.
It's a pity that the story seems to be untrue, because Meng Yiqi went into the mountains not to kill the evil dragons, but to use his own life to save them and bring them into the way of reincarnation, which is what I am carrying with me now.
There are three little white jade snakes inside.
We found no valuable clues in Jingjiao Village, nor any trace of the father of the three evil dragons, so we prepared to go to the next village - Hejiao Village - to have a look.
Hejiao Village is smaller than Jingjiao Village, with only five or six households. It is said that this village used to have a population similar to that of Jingjiao Village, but more people have moved away in the past two years.
After we explored Hejiao Village, we found that there were no clues here.
So we went to Chijiao Village, the last village in Sanjiao Village.
When we arrived at this village, Mai Xiaorou and I were stunned because there was only one house in this village. We went to look at that house and found that there was another person living in that house, an old man who was over sixty years old.
.
The old man was at the door. He saw Mai Xiaorou and I walking over and asked us what we did and why we came here.
I immediately said: "Uncle, we were driving out to play. By the way, what is the name of this village? Why are you the only one left?"
The old man said: "There was a flash flood a few years ago. A large mountainous area slid down and buried the village, but no one died. Later, the superiors arranged to build a new village, and there was no one left in our Chijiao Village."
, when I die, this Chijiao Village will probably disappear completely."
I looked around and saw that the mountain behind the village was still a cliff. It should have been caused by a landslide. The mountain was very high and the mountain that slid down was also very large. It buried the village but no one died. It was really lucky. So,
I sighed: "The rocks must be about the size of seven or eight football fields. It's incredible that no one was hurt when they slid down!"
The old man continued: "It seems that you don't believe it. That happened a few years ago. It was raining that day and everyone was at home. But just before the landslide, there was sudden lightning and thunder in the sky, and the lightning was in all directions.
Yidu split on that ridge."
"There were sharp-sighted people in the village who saw that half of the mountain was slowly sliding down when there was thunder. Later, more and more people found out, and everyone ran away, so no one died in the whole village.
But every household suffered a bad financial loss."
Lightning struck the ridge. Was there some monster that deliberately caused this landslide? I immediately thought of the father of the three evil dragons.
Thinking of this, I murmured in a low voice: "Could that landslide be caused by snake spirits?"
As soon as I said these words, the old man suddenly became furious: "That's nonsense. Do you people always look at the patron saint of Sanjiao Village with prejudice?"
As soon as he opened his mouth, his expression suddenly turned ferocious.
I took a step back in fright, and Mai Xiaorou, who had been silent for a long time, said: "Chen Yu, haven't you discovered yet? The old man is not a human being, and the house in front of us does not exist. We started from the beginning."
I fell under the illusion of a ghost covering my eyes!"
Hearing what Mai Xiaorou said, I quickly adjusted my breath, trying to get rid of this illusion, but no matter what I did, everything in front of me felt real, and I couldn't tell what was fake.
In desperation, I rubbed my eyes and then touched the Snake King Pendant on my chest. As a result, I found that the Snake King Pendant on my chest was missing!
what 's wrong!
Mai Xiaorou reminded me from the side: "Chen Yu, your senses have been completely controlled by that ghost. The Snake King is on your chest and has started to react. It's just that your senses are controlled and you can't feel it."
The Snake King Pendant is just the emotion conveyed to you, that ghost is very strong!"
I asked curiously: "If my senses are controlled, why can I hear what you say and see you!"
Mai Xiaojudo: "It's very simple, because I use you as my life. To a certain extent, we are actually the same person!" (To be continued)
