After packing our things, we set out on our journey.
It's just that this time there was one more person behind us, making the conversation between Mai Xiaorou and I less casual than before.
Nangong Fanxong, on the other hand, showed no restraint at all. She took out snacks in the back seat and started eating them. Mai Xiaorou and I bought those snacks for her in the supermarket. She is a person from the upper world, but there is no
Money in our world.
When we went out, Mai Xiaorou and I also discussed asking Nangong Fan to change into modern clothes, but she was unwilling and insisted on wearing her own blue Hanfu dress.
Along the way, we naturally had to ask Nangong Fanxong some things about the upper world, but she didn't answer us at all, which made Mai Xiaorou and I extremely embarrassed every time.
After arriving at the county town, we went directly to the wreath shop.
Li Guidao is still here. I asked from the side. This time, none of Li Guidao's aunts are here. He is the only one who takes care of the entire wreath shop, of course in the backyard of the wreath shop.
There is a guest, who is today’s guest and the person we want to see.
After greeting Li Guidao, he looked at Nangong Fan and said, "I didn't expect that Mr. Yu would let you participate in this matter. It seems that he values you very much!"
Nangong Fanhao saluted Li Guidao and smiled and said: "It doesn't matter whether he thinks highly of it or not. What is important is that I will win the top spot on the Hundred Stars list in three years. If we fight then, I will not show mercy!
"
Li Guidao also smiled and said: "I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. There will be a Taoist selection in June today. I will participate at that time. If nothing happens, I will be promoted to a Taoist. Once I become a Taoist, that's it."
I won’t appear on the list of the top ten supernatural beings again, so I’m afraid you won’t have a chance to compete with me in the short term.”
Hearing what Li Guidao said, the smile on Nangong Fan's face froze. She hummed and said, "Don't be complacent. When I get to Dao Zun, I will still have a chance to fight you!"
Li Guidao said: "That will be six years later. By that time, maybe I will already be a Taoist saint!"
According to Li Guidao, the highest rank above Taoist Master is Taoist Saint.
Next, Li Guidao did not continue to argue with Nangong Fanzong and led us directly to the backyard.
There was a woman standing in the yard, wearing a black windbreaker and a velvet hat. She seemed to be afraid of the cold, with her collar turned up and her neck tightened.
After seeing the woman, Li Guidao said: "The people who are here to help you solve the problem are here. You go to the room with the open door to the east to talk. That is the reception room. Tea has been prepared. You
Just pour it yourself."
When Li Guidao spoke, the woman turned her head. This woman had an ordinary appearance, with short hair and a baby face. However, her face was bloodless and very pale. She looked like she was frozen.
The woman was trembling a little and said to Li Guidao: "Thank you, Master Li, and thank you all masters!"
After saying that, the woman bowed to us.
When we arrived at the reception room, the woman picked up the teapot and gave it to me. Mai Xiaorou and Nangong Fanhao each poured a cup of tea. Then she also poured herself a cup, but she did not drink it directly, but held the teacup to keep warm.
It is already March, the season of early spring, and it is not that cold anymore. Why is the woman in front of us so afraid of the cold?
Li Guidao had already gone to the wreath shop at this time, and he did not introduce us to who the woman was when he left.
After looking at us for a while, she seemed a bit shy as a woman, as if she didn't know how to speak.
Nangong Fancong said impatiently: "What are you blabbering about? If you have something to say, tell me quickly. What's the point of just sitting there and not talking?"
When Nangong Fan said this, the woman in the windbreaker was frightened. Her voice was trembling: "Yes, yes, I'm sorry!"
I said to Nangong Fanzong: "Shut up, you are following me on the case, and you must obey me in everything. If you ask questions without authorization again, I will kick you out of my team!"
Nangong Fan was a little angry and wanted to get angry at me, but I glared at her and refused to give in.
Nangong Fan said that the person she really wanted to kill was Mr. Yu, not me, so she had to fulfill Mr. Yu's instructions, finish the case with me first, and then strive to enter the Hundred Stars list, and win the Supernatural Ten in three years.
The leader of heroes.
She couldn't fall out with me now, so she fell silent and stopped talking.
I finally caught Nangong Fanxong's weakness.
Nangong Fan didn't speak, so I turned to the woman in the trench coat and said, "Don't be nervous, just tell me your own affairs slowly. If you don't know where to start, just tell me."
Please introduce yourself first. Before you do the introduction, let me first introduce us..."
Then I told the woman in the windbreaker my name, Mai Xiaorou and Nangong Fanxong.
She nodded at us, and then looked at Nangong Fanxong a few more times, probably because he was wearing ancient Han Dynasty clothes.
The woman in the windbreaker nodded, and then slowly said: "My name is Zhao Jincui, I am from Xiquan Township. I want you to save my two children. They are so pitiful!"
I asked the woman in the trench coat: "What happened to your two children? Are they haunted by ghosts?"
Zhao Jincui shook his head and said: "My two children died more than a month after they were born."
Dead? Then what else did she ask us to save? We don’t have the ability to bring the dead back to life. I asked Zhao Jincui curiously what was going on.
She began to hesitate again.
I frowned and said to her: "Don't be nervous, just start with how your child died and tell it in detail, just like telling a story."
Zhao Jincui paused for a while and then said slowly: "Can I talk about it anytime I want?"
Zhao Jincui was taking too much effort to speak. As long as she was willing to speak, even if she started speaking when she was a child, I would agree, so I nodded to her.
Zhao Jincui took a breath and said: "I am from Xiquan Village, Xiquan Township. When I was seven years old..."
Zhao Jincui really started telling this story when she was a child. I couldn't help but say "fuck" in my heart, but soon I calmed down and listened quietly to the next story she told us.
"When I was seven years old, my mother was paralyzed in bed. Except for her eyes and mouth, no other part could move."
"When I was eight years old, my mother went on a hunger strike in order not to burden my father and I. No matter how we fed her, she refused to swallow, and she died soon after."
"When I was eighteen years old, I fell in love with Zhang Shengliang from our village. I followed him out to work. I had two abortions because of him."
"Last year, when I was 21 years old, I got pregnant again. I didn't want to beat the child again, so I told my father about it. My father went to see Zhang Shengliang's parents, and after discussing it, we decided
It was decided that Zhang Shengliang and I would get married."
"Later I went to the hospital for a prenatal check-up, and the doctor said it was twins. This made both of our families extremely happy. My parents-in-law were also very kind to me."
"In the blink of an eye, it was time for me to give birth. I didn't know what was going on at the time. I felt very uncomfortable. It wasn't the discomfort of giving birth, but it felt like my spine was being pricked by needles. Later, the child was born.
, but after half a month I became paralyzed. Just like my mother, I could only move my eyes and mouth, but could not move any other parts."
"I can't even speak clearly, but my consciousness is clear. I can hear everything others say clearly."
"I don't know why, but I suddenly became paralyzed!"
"I really wanted Zhang Shengliang to take me to the hospital for examination, but he refused and sent me directly back to my father, while they kept the child."
"I know Zhang Shengliang thinks I am a burden and doesn't want me anymore. At that time, I was really desperate. I wanted to go on a hunger strike like my mother, but I couldn't give up because I have two newborn children and I couldn't let them go!"
"I have to live for my two children."
"But after another half month, Zhang Shengliang asked someone to send news that my two children were dead. He said that since he sent me home, my two children have not eaten well, and then he started to
He had a fever and died directly in the end!"
Hearing this, I was surprised and said: "How is it possible? Didn't you send the child to the hospital?"
Zhao Jincui said: "Later, my father asked someone to inquire. There was a chance to send him to the hospital, but my parents-in-law refused to send him. They directly gave the child antipyretics and let the child take it by himself. A child of such a small age should take the same medicine as an adult.
How can I bear the antipyretic medicine!"
"The most annoying thing is that my two children died. Instead of being sad, they went around telling others that my mother was paralyzed, and now I am also paralyzed. The paralysis in our family is hereditary. They said that my two children were
The queen will also be paralyzed when she grows up, and she will become a burden to the family sooner or later. It is better to be gone as soon as possible!"
"Listen, are these words irritating?"
"Later, my father went to argue with his family, but Zhang Shengliang beat him up. In the end, Zhang Shengliang and I divorced. I thought I was blind and fell in love with his heartless thing!"
Hearing this, I asked out of curiosity: "Aren't you paralyzed? But why do you look like you're fine now?"
When Zhao Jincui was talking about her child, she burst into tears. Her crying voice was still under control, and she could continue to tell the story.
But when I asked that question, Zhao Jincui burst into tears. She could no longer control her emotions.
She climbed on the table and cried bitterly, and Mai Xiaorou and I couldn't help feeling a little emotional.
Nangong Fanxong said angrily: "Where is that damn scumbag man? I will shoot him to death with one arrow!"
I asked Nangong Fanxong to stop talking, and then asked Zhao Jincui how her paralysis got better.
Zhao Jincui slowly raised his head and said with a haggard look on his face: "My two children were cured by me!"
Wasn’t her child dead? How was she cured? (To be continued)
