Chapter 112: Death upon hearing
Due to the previous incidents, Jiang Lei has lost interest in shopping.
I was restless and wanted to find my sister-in-law and go home together.
But for some reason, Jiang Lei came to a dead end in a daze.
"What's going on, here..."
I was about to turn around and leave quickly, but unexpectedly there was a baby standing behind me.
The face is ferocious, and the whole body seems to have been soaked in water for several months, becoming swollen and white, which makes people feel chilly in their hearts.
Especially the eyes without a trace of black, filled with evil whites.
With a roar and sharp fangs, Jiang Lei screamed, turned around and tried to escape.
But the ghost baby was chasing after him.
At this critical moment, a loud shout came:
"Bold monster, how dare you do evil in broad daylight!"
Several spells fell from the sky and were directly attached to the ghost baby's head. body.
Like cold water dripping into hot oil, a crackling sound came from the ghost baby.
With the ghost baby's miserable howl, the young Taoist priest who had been slapped by Jiang Lei suddenly appeared.
He held a whisk and swept through the air. With just one blow, the heavily injured ghost infant screamed and disappeared into thin air.
"It's so dangerous. Fortunately, Pindao couldn't worry about it, so he rushed over in a hurry, otherwise I'm afraid something bad would have happened."
After being rescued by the other party, Jiang Lei finally escaped from Freed from the panic, he quickly thanked:
"Thank you, Taoist priest, for saving me. I was rude to the Taoist priest just now. I'm really ashamed... I don't know what to call the Taoist priest."
"It doesn't matter. It doesn’t matter, we, as Taoists, have the heart to save lives and heal the wounded, and to eliminate demons and defend the Tao.”
"The poor Taoist's surname is Bai, and he has no Taoist title."
"I have met Taoist Master Bai."
Taoist Master Bai waved his hand, and then said seriously:
"But today This incident is just an example. Madam, your child is indeed a demon fetus. If it is not solved in time, similar disasters will continue to happen in the future until your family is implicated."
Jiang Lei also looked extremely ugly. No matter what happens, the fetus in your belly is your own child.
It would be too cruel to abandon him because he would bring disaster to the family.
If only she was involved, Jiang Lei could naturally carry on without any burden.
But if her husband and mother were also implicated, Jiang Lei would have difficulty concealing her guilt.
Just when Jiang Lei was hesitant and at a loss.
But I heard a surprised shout from the side:
"Brother and sister, why are you here? I just looked for you for a long time and couldn't find you!"
After Su Hui discovered that Jiang Lei disappeared, he hurriedly searched around following her scent, and finally found Jiang Lei in this remote corner. .
He ran over in a hurry, only to find that she was talking to a strange Taoist priest.
Hurrying forward to protect Jiang Lei behind him, he looked at Taoist Bai in front of him warily.
“Humph, there are not many good Taoist priests, what do you want to do!?”
Jiang Lei also hurriedly explained that she was suddenly attacked by a monster outside, and it was Taoist Bai who saved her.
Su Hui looked up and down at the Taoist priest in front of him, and indeed he could not see any evil in him for the time being.
He snorted softly, but the guard in his eyes still did not retreat.
"Let's go..."
Then he dragged Jiang Lei and left the scene quickly.
Only the Taoist surnamed Bai still warned him again and again:
"After Madam returns, think carefully about what the poor Taoist said, and do not harm the lives of the family because of a moment of benevolence."
Go back. On the way, Jiang Lei also informed Su Hui of the ins and outs of the matter.
Su Hui was noncommittal after hearing this, saying that she was just a woman and really didn’t know anything in this regard.
When it comes to the theory of fate, it is better to let Jiang Lei have a good chat with her husband after she goes back.
No matter what happens next, the couple will face it together, and one of them must not make the decision without authorization.
"I understand." Jiang Lei nodded:
"Thank you, Sister Su."
Su Hui smiled and looked at this girl who always had a frown on her face. '.
Although Su Hui is several years younger than Jiang Lei on the surface.
But in fact, Su Hui already had spiritual intelligence when Jiang Lei was born.
I don’t know how many years of practice it took me to develop this skill.
So Cheng Jianglei felt at ease when she called her sister.
“Sister, you look so beautiful, but you seem to be frowning every day, with troubles stuck in your heart.”
“You must know that the more worried a woman is, the easier it is to grow old. So do you. I don’t want to become a yellow-faced old woman early.”
After listening to Su Hui's words, Jiang Lei's expression finally became more vivid.
Quite shocked and asked:
"Really? Am I a little old now?"
"Not old, not old, I am still a graceful man now. Beauty, my sister is envious of how your skin is so smooth.”
Jiang Lei touched her face and found that there were no wrinkles, but she was still a little worried.
In any case, she is much older than Li Sian.
Even if the other party doesn't dislike me, I can't help but feel ashamed of myself all the time.
In fact, Jiang Lei is unfounded.
If she was at risk of getting old before, but since she turned into an unstable aberration, she has become an unstable aberration.
Her lifespan is no longer limited to that of ordinary people.
Filled with extremely unstable deformed power, she may turn into a silent and invisible 'non-existent thing' forever in the next moment.
It may also directly become an indescribable natural phenomenon.
But no matter what, her life has nothing to do with human lifespan.
After the two returned home, Jiang Lei found Li Sian after she entered the distorted state again.
He explained to him what he saw and heard today and his thoughts.
If Li Sian wanted to give up the child, she would obey her husband and not cause any trouble or danger to her family.
If the husband wanted to keep the child, then she would fulfill her responsibilities as a mother and protect Li Sian's bloodline wholeheartedly.
Li Si'an did not answer Jiang Lei's question immediately, but asked for the amulet given by Taoist Bai.
Took it and looked at it, then handed it back to Jiang Lei.
“There is nothing wrong with this charm. It is indeed an amulet to ward off evil spirits and avoid ghosts.”
"As for destiny, it's nonsense. You don't have to worry about it."
Although Li Sian is not specialized in this field, at a rough glance, he also understands that the fetus in Jiang Lei's belly does not have any evil at all.
Definitely not the son of some evil spirit.
So after repeatedly comforting Jiang Lei, the couple fell into a deep sleep.
It was not until the next day that Li Sian reported the matter to Xu Ke, and asked Jiang Lei what the fate of the fetus in her belly was, and finally confirmed that his judgment was correct.
Xu Ke's answer was naturally not much different from Li Sian's expectation.
What if the fetus in Jiang Lei’s belly is really the reincarnation of an evil spirit?
Xu Ke could tell the origin of the other party with just one glance, and it was beyond the scope of an ordinary Taoist priest to talk. "Okay, I understand."
Back home, Li Sian also silently wrote down the characteristics of the Taoist priest in his mind, leaving them for later processing.
…………
“Sir, if a person’s life is in danger, he must put another person in danger before he can be rescued. Wouldn’t such a person be too despicable?”
< br>A young scholar, fourteen or fifteen years old, was hesitant to speak to the teacher in the school.
As for this gentleman, he had a slightly crazy appearance after being frightened before.
After a period of recovery, Fang Mao’s mental state has improved significantly.
But he made up his mind completely after learning that the Earth Spirit Immortal could protect him within the east of the city.
Fang Maung decided not to leave the east side of the city for the rest of his life.
To avoid encountering those terrifying and powerless evil things again.
Ordinary people cannot directly see those terrifying creatures, which may be the greatest happiness.
Ordinary people like him, seeing these shuddering things of despair, will become riddled with holes due to the excessive impact.
However, if Fang Maang wanted to take the provincial examination and achieve success in the imperial examination, he would have to leave Tianhu County for a long time.
So Fang Maang had to make a decisive decision and give up the imperial examination.
At most, I will stay in the east of the city for the rest of my life and never go out.
Most people live this kind of life anyway, never leaving their one-third of an acre of land in the village throughout their lives.
But since he had made up his mind not to leave the city, he at least wanted to find a living.
So with the help and introduction of relatives and friends, he opened a private school and asked them to introduce some children to his school to learn calligraphy and study.
But today Fang Maung saw a student, Guo Wang, who was distracted while studying, with his eyes staring blankly most of the time.
Fang Maang also really hated the fact that iron cannot become steel, and repeatedly warned him to study hard and not to live up to his parents' expectations.
Learning literary and martial arts can help you join the emperor's family, and you can also win a wife and shadow, and shine on your family's lintel.
Who knew that Guo Wang's situation not only did not improve at all, but also became less and less attentive.
When I was studying the next day, I actually fell asleep in my seat.
When Fang Maang came forward to wake him up, he suddenly screamed, jumped up and started shouting, making the school noisy.
Fang Mao was almost so angry that he used a ruler to teach him a lesson.
But when he calmed down, he felt that this boy seemed to be somewhat similar to himself back then.
So he showed his patience and left Guo Wang alone after school was over.
Patiently ask him if he has encountered anything recently and why he is often absent-minded.
Guo Wang was reluctant to tell Fang Maang at first, but after thinking about it, he couldn't bear Fang Maang's questioning.
I had to ask the original question.
"Sir, if a person's life is in danger, he must put another person in danger before he can be rescued. Wouldn't such a person be too despicable?"
Fang Mang Hearing this, he was stunned for a moment, and then said pleasantly:
"Although saints teach us to sacrifice our lives for righteousness, human survival is also instinctive. Moreover, a person's life and death are often not limited to himself, but also bear the expectations and responsibilities of his parents and family."
"When facing life and death, A person can often do anything without being surprised. ”
If you have never seen the Great Terror with your own eyes, you may still be able to talk about life and death in a relaxed manner.
But Fangmao, who has been wandering on the edge of life and death all year round, has a profound understanding of the heavy meaning of the word 'death'.
So Fang Maang did not expect his students to be benevolent people who would sacrifice their lives for righteousness.
I just hope that they can ask themselves a few more questions when making a choice: Do they have a clear conscience and is it worth it?
But Guo Wang obviously didn’t understand Fang Mao’s feelings.
He hesitated to tell what he had experienced in the past few days.
A few days ago, one of his best friend friends told him a story.
In a remote place in the south of Tianhu County, there is a dry well, which is entangled with countless grievances and curses. Anyone who enters it will never come out.
Even if you die inside, your soul will remain in the dry well forever, imprisoned by the cold dry well for eternity.
Hearing this, Fang Mao was full of disapproval at first.
This story is too cliche.
The Curse of the Dry Well, compared to all the weird and terrifying things in reality, the Curse of the Dry Well seems too childish.
Besides, this story is also full of contradictions.
Since you can never get out if you are trapped inside, how did the person telling this story escape?
Besides, how does he know that even if he dies inside, his soul is destined to be unable to come out?
It’s just a weird story told by a country boy, passed down through false rumors.
But Guo Wang continued to preach:
“But he said that the most terrifying thing about this dry well is that we cannot know his existence.”
"Anyone who learns about this dry well, especially the story of the dry well, will be bound by the curse of the dry well."
"In the end, he will enter the dry well inexplicably, and will never be able to leave, and will bear the curse forever. The suffering and pain involved.”
“If you want to lift the curse, you must tell this story to others. Each person you tell will get a chance of seven days.”
Listen here. , Fang Maang couldn't help but shuddered all over.
If this story is really made up by a child, then the person who made up this story is really guilty.
As long as one person believes this story, in order to relieve his 'curse'.
I will definitely continue to tell this kind of story to others, and it will be spread from ten to ten, just like the spread of the plague. It will not take long to reach an extremely terrifying scale.
Taking a deep breath, Fang Maang told Guo Wang seriously.
This story was made up by people to spread fear.
Even if you don’t tell others, there won’t be any curses, let alone any dry wells.
Guo Wang showed fear on his face and said tremblingly:
“But after I heard that story, I dreamed that I was in a cold dry well every night.”
"There was darkness all around, only the narrow and hard walls of the well. No matter how hard I tried, I couldn't escape from the dry well."
"For six consecutive nights, I dreamed at the same time... ..."
Fang Maang hurriedly interrupted Guo Wang and told him to stop thinking.
After going back, just take a good bath, eat a full meal, play with friends for a while, and relax.
After sending Guo Wang away, the relaxed smile on Fang Maang’s face suddenly disappeared.
Although this story is absurd, Fang Mao can't help but have a hunch that this matter is not that simple.
Just in case, Fang Maang asked his friends in the government to report the crime and moved on to his own connections.
Finally, the two detectives agreed that they would bring magical tools to exorcise evil spirits tonight.
He spent the whole night squatting near Guo Wang's house to confirm whether their house was really haunted by any evil spirit.
After receiving the answers from the two people, Fang Maang finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"If you hear the existence of Dry Well, will you die within seven days?"
Fang Maang also hopes that his worries are just unfounded, after all, he has seen so many terrifying evil things and weird things.
I have never heard of such an evil ability.
It wasn't until the next day that two detectives found Fang Ming with solemn expressions.
Tell him an unbelievable news:
Guo Wang disappeared at home, and Guo Wang’s parents died at home...
