her left eye is unusual

Chapter 1090 Taoist, Youping

The next morning, the crowd dispersed slowly. Even if they were hardened, they had to take a rest after a whole night.

Grandma Zhen sighed for a while, and kept sighing, blaming herself very much.

Over the years, at least 30 to [-] people have drowned in the weir pond, but... there are still some people who jump into it unbelievingly.

Xiuniang found a set of her clothes for Suxin to wear.

Because Su Xin is a foreigner and has no other place to go, she sleeps in the same room with Xiu Niang.

Although she was tired all day and tossed all night, Xiuniang couldn't sleep at all, and told Suxin about the scene of her child's accident ten years ago.

Xiuniang's faint voice came like a whisper:
"At that time, Dazhu was still working as a laborer for a village in the city. He earned three or four taels of silver every month. I took care of the children at home and took care of the housework. The family lived quite loosely. That year , He came back at night and brought 20 taels of silver. My mother is the most upright person, she would never ask for things of unknown origin, so she asked him where so much money came from. Dazhu said, it was given by the master. The severance pay, and I don’t have to go to Zhuangzi anymore.”

"Severance pay is also a common thing, and I was pregnant again at that time. I thought it would be good for him to take care of the family when he came back. I didn't think much about it. But the second day after he came back, because of the pregnancy, I had to get up. I didn't expect to see him standing in front of his son's bed, staring at him in a daze. I didn't think much about it at the time, I just thought it was because he hadn't seen his son for a long time and missed him very much. Tell him to rest early."

"But it has been like this almost every day since then. Every midnight, he would come to his son's bedside... I felt something was wrong. I told my mother, and my mother asked him. He looked blank at first, and then changed the topic in a flustered expression. Just then That night, when I got up at night, I found no one in his place. I thought he went to see his son again, but I didn't go to see him that time. I just thought that I must talk to him tomorrow, what is going on? But I didn’t expect to hear shouts from outside the village at dawn the next day, saying that someone was drowning.”

"Da Zhu knows water, and the water quality is very good. How could he drown? What did he go to the pond to do at night? But no matter what, he couldn't find the slightest clue... It was really difficult during that time, and he was pregnant. There were a few times when they almost had a miscarriage. Less than a month after Dazhu left, those children went to play in the weir pond. When a group of them went ashore, they found that there was one person missing, and they searched everywhere. They didn't find it. They were afraid of being scolded by adults, so they didn't say anything. We searched for a long time, but there was no news of our son. Finally, a child accidentally said it, saying that he didn't come up after seeing my son jump into the water...Finally I drained the water of the entire weir pond, but no one was found..."

"After that time, because of the two blows in succession, the child in my stomach was gone. My mother said that there must be something in the weir pond, otherwise Dazhu and grandson would not have disappeared like that. I also told other children not to go. Playing with water. But that weir pond is like a curse, and people can't help but want to jump into it... Many people have died over the years, and everyone will still go..."

It turns out that there is such a past behind this pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who depend on each other for life.

Xiuniang said again: "My husband and children are gone, and they have advised me to remarry all these years. But when I was desperate, my mother took me in and gave me a home. It is absolutely impossible for me to leave her alone. Yes. I gradually got used to it..."

Back then, Xiuniang came here fleeing famine, and her elder brother and sister-in-law wanted to sell her to someone else to fill in the house. The other party was notoriously lazy and cruel, and he tortured her last two wives to death.

But the two of them sold her directly for money.

She escaped while others were not paying attention, and accidentally fell off the cliff. She was hit by a big pillar going up the mountain to cut firewood, and she carried her back.

Grandma Zhen treated her like a daughter, and over time the two young people also developed feelings for each other, so they became a family so naturally.

Su Xin couldn't help asking: "Then have you ever thought about what will happen to you when you get old?"

Xiuniang is now in her prime and can take care of her mother-in-law until she gets old, but when she gets old and can't move, who will take care of her?
Xiu Niang said indifferently: "On the day when I am really old and can't walk, what's the point of living? I should have gone with him back then, and I've earned money by living for so long."

The two chatted for a while, and just when they closed their eyes, there was a noisy sound outside the courtyard.

Said that he came to find that foreigner.

Seeing that Xiuniang was extremely tired and had already fallen asleep, Su Xin got up lightly and closed the door.

When he came outside, a group of people surrounded him.

"Big girl, you woke up after you touched my son yesterday, but now he has passed out again, please go and have a look..."

The others all joined in.

Su Xin heard these people crying eagerly, but she couldn't explain clearly, so she might as well go and have a look.

After seeing the three children, they were not covered by those black things, but Su Xin discovered a strange phenomenon.

That is, there is a black mark on their palms.

No matter how she touches it with spiritual power, the imprint disappears when she puts her hand on it, and when her hand leaves, the imprint returns.

Presumably they haven't woken up yet, it's because of the black mark.

Fortunately, the energy field of the life force on several people is still stable, and there is no life worry for the time being. Only by finding the source of this imprint can the problem be solved.

Seeing that there was nothing Suxin could do, they stopped entanglement and began to discuss raising money to go to the county town to find capable people for treatment.

Coincidentally, a wandering Taoist priest came to the village that day. Although he was dressed in sloppy clothes, he looked slender and had a bit of a Taoist character.

The Taoist priest called himself You Ping, and everyone called him Daoist Ping, and people quickly invited him to go.

On the other hand, because too many children died this time, the villagers united and decided to dig up the weir pond thoroughly to see what ghosts and ghosts were hiding underneath.

News soon came that the first child had woken up after being practiced by him.

Su Xin was very surprised. Could it be that this Taoist priest is really capable? !
There are so many capable people and strange people in this world, it's not that she is skeptical, but she always feels... that this Taoist came here by a bit of a coincidence.

So when the Taoist priest performed the exercises for the second child, Su Xin followed a group of villagers to watch the fun.

The Taoist priest set up an incense table, held a copper coin sword, and danced for a while, chanting words.

Then he poked the copper coin sword at the talisman paper on the case, and several pieces of talisman paper were pierced on it, and when they passed over the candle, the talisman paper burst into flames.

Then point the talisman paper in the direction of the child, grab a handful of rice and sprinkle it over.

Grains of rice fell on the child.

But after a while, the child who had been sleeping all this time started to move.

People immediately cheered.
