Chapter 0039 Should Know
When Niu Er saw me looking back, he turned his head to look outside as well.
He laughed and said, "The daughter of the Long family was entangled by a snake, became a snake woman, and gave birth to a snake baby. She gave birth to a snake, but the surname is Long. Don't you think it's strange? Don't you think it's strange? There is a snake baby in her belly, a snake baby..."
He seemed quite happy, clapped his hands and said, "The snake baby of the Long family..."
The image of those pitch-black, egg-like things in the attic flashed through my mind.
If those who were married in were infertile, then where would the people of Huilong Village come from, generation after generation?
He Gu drove the car in reverse, and wherever he passed, the roadside was full of people.
He Gu stopped the car when they reached a quieter place: "We'll go back when we find a suitable opportunity."
Sirens were blaring in the distance, and the roadside was filled with people holding flashlights and watching the excitement.
Not long after, there were cars driving towards that direction. He Gu saw that there were more cars passing by, so he took us in.
When I reached the roadside outside Huilong Village again, the entire village had disappeared, leaving only a huge pit.
The roadside was filled with cars parked and people standing there watching the fun.
He Gu did not stop, but drove and took us directly back to Qin Mi's mother-in-law's house.
Along the way, Niu Er kept clapping his hands and singing the song. He seemed very happy. He would come up to me and say, "A snake baby is going to be born. It's been many years since we had a snake baby!"
He Gu drove steadily, and when the car stopped in front of Qin Mipo's house, the sky was already slightly bright.
Qin Mi Po was grinding tofu on the stone mill under the eaves. Niu Er smelled the fragrance of the beans and ran down happily: "Make tofu, eat the feast, the tofu is white, the mourning cloth is fluttering..."
I sat in the car without moving, just watching the blood-red sun rising in the distance.
"What are you going to do in the future?" He Gu looked at Xue Ri and said in a deep voice, "Your virginity has been broken, and the snake coffin may no longer be useful to you, so it will not look for you for the time being. But you can't leave the town, I will take Niu Er back to Wentian Sect."
"You and Mo Xiu..." I stretched out my hand and scratched the glass window. My fingers broke through the mist, leaving a winding snake shape. "You deliberately made the silk snake in my grandma's body explode, right?"
He Gu paused, flicked his fingers on the steering wheel, and patted the steering wheel: "I didn't know it would be like that, I just thought..."
I opened the car door and got out.
This proves that Mo Xiu not only used some tricks in the cave, but also really took advantage of grandma.
To He Gu, I am nothing more than a nuisance. What they do seems to them to be right.
Niu Er was already happily helping Qin Mipo push the millstone, and waved at me: "Long Ling, come and help me push the millstone."
Chen Quan and his son were still lying on the cool bed in front of the house, but the snake that jumped out from above Chen Quan's head seemed to have crawled out, and its head was drooping limply on the edge of the cool bed, as if it wanted to escape but was suffocated to death again.
I walked over, took a look, and reached out to feel the father and son's breath. Although it was faint, it was still there.
I walked into the room and took a look at my grandma, and I still stretched out my hand slightly.
But I kept that finger under grandma's nose for a long time, and I didn't want to take it back. I just wanted to wait a little longer, wait a little longer...
"No pain, he passed away peacefully." Qin Mi Po stood at the door, her eyes fell on my wrist: "Where is Snake Lord?"
My eyes fell on my empty wrist. Mo Xiu said he had gone out for something, probably to settle the woman in the attic.
I hooked my finger under grandma's nose again and put my hand to the cold tip of her nose. Then I slowly sat down and turned grandma's body over.
I lifted up my clothes and put my hand on my spine. This time, no matter how hard I pressed, the snake underneath did not move.
Qin Mi Po took out a set of shrouds from the cupboard and gave them to me: "This is for myself. Do you know how to wear it?"
I looked at the shroud, reached out and touched it, raised my eyes to look at Qin Mipo, and said in a choked voice: "Huilong Village is gone..."
It was just the time for the fireworks to go up into the sky, and the whole village suddenly fell...
Qin Mipo looked at me: "Where is the Snake King?"
I chuckled softly. In fact, from the beginning to the end, the person Qin Mipo wanted to help was not me, but Mo Xiu.
It turns out that I really have nothing and can't rely on anything.
I looked outside the house and saw that the police were coming to my door again.
But this time, Qin Mipo hurried forward to respond, saying that my grandma had passed away last night, and she and He Gu had been watching here.
The police came in and confirmed it. They found one of them looked familiar. He was the one who told my father not to sell snake wine at my house that day.
He looked at me solemnly and said, "If you have any news about your parents, you must tell us. You cannot leave the town for the time being. If you have any news, you must report to us."
After the police left, I looked at my grandmother lying on the bed, got up to get some water, and then helped her wipe her body.
He Gu was still talking to Niu Er outside, but Niu Er just laughed and shook his head.
I guess he wants to take Niu Er back to the Wentian Sect. The village guard may not have complete souls, but he is naturally immune to evil spirits. Niu Er seems a little different. Maybe He Gu and the others need such a person.
After I finished wiping myself, Qin Mipo taught me how to put on my shroud and said to me, "Those people in Huilong Village are all going to die. When they were about to use lightning to blow up the coffins for burial and divide up the gold and silver inside, the snake coffin started to get angry."
"It was just waiting for you to grow up, so it didn't touch those people." Qin Mipo helped me put on my inner clothes, looked at me and said, "If you had suppressed the snake coffin that day, the people in Huilong Village would have died that day, and the power of the snake coffin would have been strengthened. So the Snake King was right not to let you suppress the snake coffin."
I numbly helped grandma comb her hair. Originally, Grandma Qin Mi would never mention these things to me, but now that she did, I felt that it didn't matter whether I listened or not.
Qin Mipo patiently told me how many layers of shrouds there were and what each layer represented. Although I listened, it seemed as if I didn't hear anything.
After she put on her clothes, I took the hairpin handed to me by Qin Mipo and helped my grandmother to put her hair up.
"She must be cremated. Although the silk snake in her body is dead, if she is not cremated, it might..." Qin Mipo started coughing again when she said this.
I know she has to be cremated, but when I look at her face, I feel a little reluctant.
Coffins and the like are actually not necessary. Whenever I hear the word "coffin", my heart trembles.
When the aroma of soy milk came from outside, Niu Er cheered even louder: "Long Ling, Long Ling, drink soy milk, drink soy milk."
I glanced at my grandmother, took the scarf to cover her face, and got up to go out.
He Gu seemed to be quite patient. While drinking soy milk, he persuaded Niu Er: "We have better food. The wild fruits in the mountains are very sweet. You can play however you want."
When Niu Er saw me, he immediately ran out and handed me a half-drunk cup of soy milk: "Long Ling, do you want some soy milk?"
I looked at him and smiled, then turned to look at He Gu: "Please help me contact the crematorium."
As he said that, he took out all the money in his pocket and handed it to He Gu: "This is cash. I have some more in my phone. I'll transfer it to you. I'll find a way to give you the 200,000 yuan for the Chen family!"
I took all that money from under the flowerpot, but after running around all that, I didn't spend much of it.
He Gu was stunned for a moment, but still took the money and went to make a phone call.
Niu Er drank the soy milk and went to help Qin Mipo make tofu.
While waiting for the crematorium's car to take grandma away, He Gu asked me, "Do you want to go?"
I shook my head: "Just help me get the urn back."
I don't want to watch that kind of scene where a fire snake swallows people up in an instant anymore.
Just after I watched the crematorium's car drive away and sat down under the eaves, I felt a dark shadow flash by my side.
Mo Xiu sat next to me, holding a stone cup in his hand, and looked at me and said, "Lend me a cup of your blood."
I looked up at him and he seemed anxious.
Since the snake coffin wanted the woman in the attic to be buried with him, even if Mo Xiu forcibly took her away, she would probably feel as uncomfortable as Liu Longting, right?
I pulled the razor from my pocket and prepared to cut my wrist.
"That's not the case." Mo Xiu shook his head.
I turned and looked at him.
He said in a deep voice: "It will only be effective if the blood from the Laogong point in the palm of your hand is passed through, and it carries the heart fire."
I nodded, and the razor cut across my palm. After a while, blood flowed into the stone cup.
Mo Xiu seemed very nervous and held the stone cup tightly.
The stone cup was not big and was filled with blood in no time.
Just as Mo Xiu was about to leave with the stone cup in his hand, I called out to him, "Mo Xiu."
Mo Xiu turned his head and looked at me, his eyes still filled with annoyance and anxiety.
"You go first. When you are done, can you tell me who the woman in the attic is?" I wiped the blood on the razor on my clothes.
He clenched his palms tightly, looked at Mo Xiu and smiled bitterly: "Anyway, Huilong Village is gone, and the snake coffin is still of no use to me. I should be able to know these things, right?"
