Chapter 0097 Expanding Boundaries
I didn't expect Mo Xiu to care about this, and I don't know why he cares about a title.
Could it be that because I don’t admit that I’m Long Ling, he cares more about me calling him Mo Xiu?
It seems that his name was given by Long Ling.
Facing his hopeful gaze, I changed my words wisely: "Mo Xiu."
He seemed to be relieved and said in a deep voice: "Huilong Village wants to trap the snake coffin in Huilong Village forever."
“Are you going to use these eight evil spirits to carry the coffin?” I just felt that the people in Huilong Village were crazy.
Mo Xiu nodded and said, "Eighteen years ago, Huilong Village did not sacrifice the daughter of the Long family. The snake coffin had already intended to move to Bashan. At that time, Mr. Hu came up with the idea of the Eight Evils carrying the coffin to trap the snake coffin and prevent it from leaving the town's boundary marker."
"That's why he suffered the retribution of the snake transformation. Now that the snake is dead, he is probably living a life worse than death." Mo Xiu's face was full of sarcasm: "He originally wanted to suppress the snake coffin so that he could live forever. Now he has achieved his wish."
"So the boundary of the snake coffin as we know it now is in the town, is it because of these eight evil spirits carrying the coffins?" It sounded a bit unbelievable to me. Does that mean there are really eight such coffins?
"But isn't the snake coffin now planning to be moved to Bashan? Doesn't this formation work?" He thought about it and felt something was wrong.
"That's because you are pregnant with a snake fetus." Mo Xiu's eyes darkened, and he whispered, "Liu Longting has already told you how the snake coffin came about. He and I are connected as one yin and one yang, so once you and I are pregnant, it will be like the snake coffin has come back to life, and he can go to Bashan."
"This Eight Evils Coffin failed to trap him, but it drew out other evil spirits from underground, which is why the Snake Coffin is unable to suppress those things now. Where do you think there are so many fluorites under Huilong Village? They were drawn out by the evil spirits from this Eight Evils Coffin." Mo Xiu said with sarcasm on his face.
This was the first time that Mo Xiu personally admitted his relationship with the snake coffin.
"Then do you know what the snake coffin is?" I always feel that the snake coffin seems to be the coffin made by Long Ling.
But the last time I saw the snake coffin, it was in the form of "Mo Xiu".
It seems like they have merged into one!
Mo Xiu smiled bitterly at me: "I know all this because Liu Longting told me. When I woke up, I didn't have a snake body, but only a snake soul attached to the black snake permeable."
"I am just a part of Mo Xiu who was resurrected by the snake coffin. Last time..." Mo Xiu said this and smiled bitterly: "I woke up when Long Fuqian was born."
I exhaled lightly, and seeing Mo Xiu's bitter face, I suddenly felt a little sad: "What are the other eight evils?"
So the people of Huilong Village deserve to die because they broke the contract eighteen years ago and tried to forcibly fix the snake coffin?
"I don't know." Mo Xiu shook his head at me.
He whispered, "The evil energy in these eight coffins is too strong. While forcibly trapping the snake coffin, it also draws out the things that were suppressed by the snake coffin. However, now, in addition to the evil energy of the eight evil coffins themselves, they only trap the boundaries of the snake coffin."
I was thinking about Li Qian's matter. If this clue was really left to me by my father, then why didn't he save Li Qian?
"Then if the Eight Evils Coffin is destroyed, will the range of the Snake Coffin be unrestricted and I can leave the town?" I thought of this possibility and turned to look at Mo Xiu.
No wonder I always wondered, if I couldn’t leave town, then why other members of the Long family could travel around the world.
Forget about others, Long Xia is still studying in the county.
It turns out that Huilong Village was causing trouble themselves and trapped the boundaries of the snake coffin!
Mo Xiu looked at me, his dark eyes seemed to flash with pain, but he still nodded: "It should be like this."
"Will destroying the Eight Evils Coffin have any impact?" I suddenly felt a little excited.
So the clue my dad left was to give me a way out!
Mo Xiu shook his head with a smile on his face.
I looked at him, and after confirming that he was not lying, I breathed a sigh of relief.
After sincerely thanking Mo Xiu, he rode his electric bike to the hospital to see Uncle Li and Aunt Li.
Mo Xiu did not return to the cave, but turned into a black snake and wrapped around my wrist again.
I shook my wrist and he immediately loosened his grip, as if he was afraid of hurting me.
I felt a little strange for a moment. Could it be that Mo Xiu had failed in his marrow cleansing and wanted to follow me closely to find out the reason for the failure?
But right now I’m more concerned about whether there’s a way to get out of town.
As long as I can get out, I will have a chance to find my parents.
Even if the Xuanmen outside wanted to kill me, it wouldn't be that easy.
When we arrived at the hospital, Aunt Li was lying straight on the bed, looking heartbroken.
Uncle Li sat on the edge of the bed, propped up with his hands, and looked at her solemnly.
I knocked on the door gently. Uncle Li glanced at Aunt Li and then came out quietly.
But as soon as he walked out of the ward, he slid down to sit on the floor, leaning against the wall, holding his face and looking at me: "Thank you, Long Ling. I'll give you the money in a few days."
"No." I squatted down beside him and whispered, "The body can't be removed for the time being. I just want to know if there is a photo of Li Qian's boyfriend, a cell phone number or something like that?"
Li Qian’s death must be related to her boyfriend, and this is the only way to deal with it now.
"Yes! Yes!" Uncle Li seemed to wake up instantly and said to me, "It's in my phone. I'll find it for you right away."
He hurried into the ward and said to Aunt Li, "Wife, Xiaoqian is dead, we have to avenge her, right? Get up quickly and find the photo of that bastard."
Aunt Li, who was originally lying straight on the bed, suddenly sat up.
Then he jumped off the bed, rushed to my side, and grabbed my hand: "Can you find that bastard?"
Uncle Li looked at me with pleading eyes, and I could only nod silently.
"Okay!" Aunt Li seemed to take a long breath and gritted her teeth and said, "When I find him, I will cut him into pieces and bite him to death bite by bite."
Uncle Li quickly pulled her away and asked her to look for photos on her phone.
In fact, their photos were found from Li Qian’s circle of friends, and she gave us all the information.
The fake ID that the man had when he entered the factory, and some other people’s confessions, in which he talked about some of the situation at home.
They were so excited that I just listened quietly.
After they finished listening, I collected all the information at once and let them wait with peace of mind.
Actually, I’m not very good at comforting people, so after I was done, I went to the inpatient department and then went to the laboratory to get the test form for the snake wine.
The person in charge of the inspection report was a little unhappy when he saw that it happened several days ago, but when he looked up at my bald head, he was stunned for a moment: "Are you the daughter of Snake Wine Dragon?"
"Yes." I smiled bitterly.
He nodded quickly and stepped back: "Just wait."
He took out the test report and carefully placed it on the window: "Take it and leave quickly."
Unexpectedly, one day I really became a plague god.
The report is full of academic terms that only professionals can understand.
I had no one to look for them, so I had to take them back and check them one by one on my phone.
Just when I was thinking about how to find out the secret of snake wine, I heard my cell phone ringing.
It was an unfamiliar number. I answered it with a little surprise, and then I heard Xiao Xingye said anxiously, "Come quickly, the Chen family is causing trouble, saying that they want the coffin as compensation. They are already in a hurry to get on the boat to pull the coffin, and I can't stop them!"
I was stunned for a moment before I realized that I was referring to Chen Quan's family.
"Don't let them touch the coffin." Mo Xiu climbed up my arm to my neck and said in a deep voice, "The coffin is filled with evil energy. They can't touch it."
I quickly told Xiao Xingye what Mo Xiu had said and rode over on my electric bike.
But when I arrived, I saw Xiao Xingye sitting on the shore, with the left side of his face swollen, glaring at a few people in an angry manner.
The lifeboat had already reached the large ship on the river, and it was obvious that someone was already on board.
Seeing me arrive, Chen Xinping, who had negotiated with me last time, immediately turned to look at me and said, "Long Ling."
"Although Chen Quan and his son have been cremated, you haven't been buried yet. Last time we heard that you made money from selling snake wine, we knew you were in financial difficulty, and we didn't have the nerve to force a girl like you to pay for it." Chen Xinping looked gloomy.
He said to me, "But look, there is so much gold on that coffin. You should pay us the money you owe us, right? The graves of the four members of the Chen family should be repaired, and a Taoist temple should be built, right?"
The money earned from selling snake wine last time was too little, and it was obvious that they didn’t think highly of it.
Just by asking for this, they added so many fees. You really dare to ask for this!
Chen Xinping also took out the contract I signed last time and said, "The contract is still there, and we didn't force you to take it. Now, we are just guarding the coffin. If you give us the money, we will return the coffin to you! Isn't that too much?"
I didn't expect that the Chen family was really lingering around!
Xiao Xingye seemed to have lost his temper after being beaten. He covered his face and said nothing.
"Let the people on the boat get off first." I saw that there seemed to be someone under the awning, so I hurriedly said, "Don't let them touch the things on the coffin."
"Don't worry, we just want money. The coffin is weird and we won't touch it." Chen Xinping seemed to have a serious face.
But before he could finish, he heard someone screaming on the big ship.
Then a man ran out in panic, shouting, "It's a corpse! It's a corpse!"
Xiao Xingye snorted coldly: "You deserve it!"
I hurriedly said to Chen Xinping, "Hurry up and let them get off the boat first."
But the man who had already run out of the boat, after shouting a few words, seemed to twist his face a few times, then showed an obscene and cunning smile, and turned into the cabin covered by the tarpaulin in a strange posture.
