My master is invincible

Chapter 553 Collecting Birds (80)

After hearing what Chen Tiannan said, I tapped him on the head, "What do you mean by emphasizing sex over friends? Do you think it's unsafe for Wang Chuyao, a little girl, to stay here?"

He just gave up on me, and said angrily: "I know, you are the only one who knows the truth."

I smiled wryly, didn't say anything more, and led Wang Chuyao towards the thousand-year-old pine.

On the way, neither of us spoke, we both walked with our heads depressed.

Soon, the two of us walked to the side of the thousand-year-old pine, and a vague fragrance floated into my nose. What puzzled me was that there seemed to be some rancid smell mixed in that fragrance. If it wasn't for long-term contact with the dead, It was hard to smell that rancid smell.

How can there be rancid smell?
Suppressing the doubts in my heart, I looked up and saw that the thousand-year-old pine was a bit strangely high, about three feet tall, and the tree was as big as a medium-sized dustpan. , I took a photo with a flashlight, and the branch was covered with air-dried red cloth.

"Ninth Brother, what does it mean to hang a red cloth on a tree?" Wang Chuyao asked curiously.

I said casually, "There are two possibilities, one is to pray for blessings, and the other is to coax the birds to nest here."

She groaned, looked up at the thousand-year-old pine, pointed to the branch on the left side, and exclaimed, "Ninth brother, look there."

I was taken aback, and looked along where her finger was, and saw a particularly bright red cloth at that position. Compared with the air-dried red cloths around, this red cloth was extraordinarily dazzling. What puzzled me was, that On the red cloth were written two big golden characters 'Yin Marriage', and a line of small characters on the left and right sides of Yin Marriage. Since it was night, I couldn't see what was written in the small characters.

"Can you read those two lines of small characters clearly?" I asked Wang Chuyao.

She nodded, fixed her eyes on the red cloth, and read: "Chen Jiu, born on March 1987, 3, at Chenshi, and died on May 19, 2006, at Zishi. Su Mengke, born in 5 , May 29, Choushi, died on May 1988, 5, Zishi."

As soon as I heard this, my face changed drastically, I couldn't believe what was written on the red cloth, so I asked Wang Chuyao to read carefully.She stared at the red cloth for a while, then said in a deep voice, "Brother Jiu, that's right, your name is written on it."

I was taken aback for a moment, and there was only one thought in my mind, am I dead?
Immediately, I pinched my face, which was extremely painful, and then pinched my thigh, which was extremely painful. The severe pain made me wake up immediately.Made, it must be Aunt Lian's fault.

Having figured this out, I asked Wang Chuyao, "What's the date today?"

She said: "May 5"

March 3?The red cloth was written on May 30th, that is, yesterday, and I did not tell Aunt Lian my birthday yesterday, that is to say, the red cloth was probably hung today, or even just now of.

I took a flashlight and looked around to take a picture, and the surrounding area was empty, let alone people, not even ghosts.

Ma De, what the hell is Aunt Lian doing, why did she hang my birthday on the tree, and even wrote that I was dead, she is really crazy, and she is not afraid of being struck by thunder.

I cursed and prepared to take off the red cloth.After all, it's unlucky to hang something like this on a tree, and more importantly, I'm not dead yet.

I told Wang Chuyao about this idea, and asked her to hold a flashlight to shine on the tree pole, while I climbed up to take down the red cloth.

"No, have you forgotten what the bodyguard said? He said that the millennium pine tree is weird." She flatly refused my request and continued: "How about you take the flashlight and I'll go climb the tree."

"You?" I took a look at her and said, "You little girl, what kind of tree does your family climb, and besides, you forgot that you are wearing a skirt?"

With a shy voice, she scolded, "Pervert."

Afterwards, we discussed how to remove the red cloth. Wang Chuyao said, find a long stick to support the red cloth. get up?She also said that it was even more impractical to find the pine nut to climb the tree. The bodyguards of the pine nut were very afraid of the thousand-year-old pine, so they would not climb the tree.

After discussing for a while, there was no feasible solution.In desperation, I brought up the previous proposal again, and she shook her head vigorously, saying: "Ninth brother, we have a pagoda tree in Shaoyang, which is about the same size as this tree. When we were young, we always liked to climb trees. Once my brother climbed That tree, after returning home, had a high fever, and it was useless to send him to the hospital for injections and medicines. In the end, my grandma called him the soul for three days, and the disease was completely cured."

Her grandma?Isn't that the immortal lady who feigned death?

Thinking of this, I patted my head hard, how could I forget this, this Wang Chuyao's grandma is a fairy woman, and the fairy woman is very knowledgeable about trees and other things, maybe this Wang Chuyao or more Or know a little bit.

Immediately, I asked her, "Did your grandma say anything?"

She thought for a while and said, "Grandma said that my brother's soul was taken away by a tree spirit. If she hadn't usually worshiped Grandma Fushaw, my brother would have died."

When I heard this, my mind was a little confused. The pine nut said that there were bird spirits on the thousand-year-old pine, and Wang Chuyao came out as a whole tree spirit, which made me feel helpless.However, one thing I am sure of is that the thousand-year-old pine is strange. As for whether it is the tree itself or the birds on the tree, I am not sure.

Seeing that I didn't speak, Wang Chuyao frowned, grabbed my arm, shook it, and said, "Ninth brother, don't climb the thousand-year-old pine. I remember grandma said that the thousand-year-old pine and the ten thousand-year cypress are two kinds Trees cannot be climbed randomly, it will cause trouble to the upper body."

I was stunned, there is a similar saying in our side, it is said that the bigger the tree, the older it is, the easier it is to become fine, and it should not be cut down easily, otherwise it will cause trouble to the upper body.

For a moment, I was caught in a dilemma. If I climbed up to pick the red cloth, Wang Chuyao and the pine nuts should not be bluffing. If I didn’t pick it, the red cloth would hang on the tree. After a long time, my luck and health would definitely go wrong , maybe he will die, after all, this kind of thing is very unlucky.

What to do?To pick or not to pick?Could it be that Aunt Lian was allowed to hang the red cloth there?

After thinking about it for a while, I didn't care about tree spirits or bird spirits, so I put the flashlight into Wang Chuyao's hand and prepared to climb the tree.

"Ninth brother, don't climb, really don't climb the thousand-year-old pine! Something will happen." She shouted with a flashlight.

I ignored her, walked to the Millennium Pine, and looked up at the top of the tree. The red cloth was hanging on the left side, about eight or nine meters above the ground. With my physical strength, I should be able to climb to that position. I have climbed trees a lot, and I am very familiar with this tree-climbing thing.

I first reached out and touched the bark. It felt very cool and slightly sticky. When I pressed it hard, the bark was soft, as if it had been soaked by something.Strangest of all, I could smell a faint rot on the bark.
