Snake Tangled Three Dreams

Chapter 34
The man who was picked up was Zhao Ernian who lived in the south of the village. He was about [-] years old and his family was engaged in the preserved fish business.

He had just woken up from his chaotic consciousness when he saw a tall man standing in front of him, wearing an ancient attire. Said: "You, who are you, what do you want to do..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly noticed that Liu Juanzhi's eyes were a pair of golden vertical pupils, his expression changed immediately, and he struggled and shouted: "Come here! Snake, snake! There are monsters here! Help... help!" !"

The people around were frightened by the snake. When they heard that there were snakes and monsters, they all screamed and moved closer to each other, and huddled together on the ground.

Liu Huangzhi frowned slightly, let go of Zhao Ernian's arm and grabbed his collar with his backhand, and pulled him face to face. Seeing that his thin lips were slightly parted and about to speak, I suddenly interrupted him.

"do not!"

I rushed to Liu Wangzhi's side from under the tree, grabbed his wrist, and persuaded him: "Don't be angry, Mr. Snake, he just woke up and his mind is still not clear, if he offends you with his unscrupulous words , I apologize to you on his behalf."

Hearing what I said, Zhao Ernian hurriedly begged for mercy: "Yes, yes! I, I, I don't want to die, please forgive me..."

Liu Wangzhi turned his face away, glanced at me with those vertical pupils, then looked at Zhao Ernian expressionlessly, and said calmly, "I don't eat people, so why be nervous."

He let go of Zhao Niannian, his eyes returned to normal, and he stood upright with his sleeves behind his back, looking at the villagers with a cold expression: "I have dealt with the snake that harmed you according to the law, and you can live and work in peace from now on." , no more snakes will invade Linxiu Village."

The villagers were all shocked by these words, a little unbelievable.

I quickly took the opportunity to strike while the iron was hot, and explained to them: "Don't be afraid, everyone, he is the snake king I invited down from the mountain to quell the disaster for us. He was the one who cut off the snake species for everyone just now and saved your lives."

The villagers looked at each other with their eyes wide open, as if they still had doubts, but in a blink of an eye, they found that there was no trace of the snake in the village, and they were immediately excited and wept with joy.

I don't know who knelt down to thank him first, these villagers who were almost swallowed by the snake species began to bow to Liu Wangzhi one after another, thanking and praising him non-stop, like devout believers.

I went to help them up one by one, but Liu Wangzhi remained calm from the beginning to the end, calmly accepting their kneeling, and said: "If you have nothing to do, go back. There are still things to solve in the back mountain. Bai Tingyue and I have to deal with it." gone."

After everyone heard that the matter on the mountain had not been resolved, they were a little nervous, and a few concerned people asked if they needed help.

"No need." Liu Wangzhi refused alienatedly, and turned to look at Zhao Ernian, "You, come here."

Zhao Ernian was not so afraid anymore, but his eyes were still a little timid, "Dear Immortal, please tell me if you have anything to do, and I will definitely do it."

I suddenly remembered what Liu Wangzhi said before, to save Mengyue and the others, one had to ask a villager to borrow something first.

Sure enough, the next second he heard his deep and magnetic voice, and said without emotion: "Borrow that black cat from your house."

black cat?It turned out that he went through all this trouble because he wanted to ask Zhao Ernian to lend him that black cat at home?

The black cat of Zhao Ernian's family is famous in the village for its skin. If you have nothing to do, you can just steal his cured fish, and even steal it with other cats. kind.

When Zhao Ernian heard that it was such a trivial matter, he readily agreed.

I didn't ask Liu Juzhi what the black cat was for, and I followed Zhao Ernian back home with him, and caught his fat cat, which was hiding at home and ate up the cured fish, and held it in my arms. and left.

It's halfway through the long night, so we have to hurry back to the back mountain.

Probably because I thought my legs and feet were too slow, after leaving the door of Zhao's house, Liu Wangzhi suddenly grabbed my waist and hugged me, then flicked my clothes, and turned me into a puff of smoke , Mistyly flying towards the deep forest behind the mountain.

The black cat in my arms let out a "meow" in fright. I was afraid that it would fall, so I quickly hugged its arms tightly. In fact, I was also so startled that my heart was pounding.

This time was different from the last time again, Xu flew too fast, the surrounding scenery was blurred into one piece and retreated backwards, except for the cold water mist and the wind blowing on his face together, he couldn't see anything clearly.

Not long after, Liu Wangzhi hugged me and fell to the ground.

I stepped on a layer of litter and looked around, only to realize that it was an unfamiliar mountain.

Here, like the back mountain, is full of trees and weeds, but the difference is that the surrounding vegetation is as dry and yellow as autumn and winter, without any vitality.

Thick, grayish white mist passed through the intertwined dead woods, floated on top of the grass, and diffused in the night, covering all the scenery in all directions.

"This fog is too thick." I sniffed and felt that the fog was very cold. When the fog flowed into my lungs, I suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a cold swishing yin in the fog. In a word, I was immediately stimulated to cough twice.

"This is Lin Mi, cover your mouth and nose carefully." Liu Juanzhi said lightly, and took the black cat in my arms.

How could an ordinary miasma have a negative energy?I glanced around, raised my hand to cover my mouth and nose, and silently raised my vigilance in my heart.

The black cat seemed to be very afraid of Liu Wangzhi, meowing and struggling in his arms.

I turned around and saw that Liu Juanzhi was holding its neck and watching it quietly, and holding a piece of white paper money in the other hand and holding it under the cat's nose for it to sniff, his eyes were stern, and he said in a deep voice: "Go , Find that thing for me."

As soon as he finished speaking, he let go, and the black cat dexterously landed on all fours, with its cat hair blowing up along its tail, and bent down to smell everywhere. After a while, it suddenly turned its head and yelled at us sharply, and then let go. With four legs, he rushed into the dead wood forest on the left without looking back.

"Follow." Liu Juanzhi reminded in a low voice, grabbed my wrist and led me strode into the forest, chasing after the black cat running ahead.

I heard Granny Mei say before that the black cat is a psychic, and it is the messenger who guards the gates of the world and the ghosts, and the paper money that Liu Wangzhi smelt to it just now must have some kind of smell. widow.

After roughly understanding the role of the black cat, I focused on following Liu Juanzhi, but his legs were too long, and one step was almost two or three steps away from me, so I had to trot all the way, trying not to lag behind.

The black cat shuttled nimbly through the thick white mist, leading us forward non-stop.

The deadwood forest is silent everywhere, even the wind doesn't blow it, the darker the more you go deeper, the air becomes cold and cold, as if soaked in the bone marrow.

I don't know how long I went around, and when I was panting and about to be physically exhausted, the black cat finally stopped not far away.

It stood motionless in front of it, hunched over and grinning, with an aggressive "woo-woo" sound rolling in its throat, and its fur was blown like a hedgehog.

Liu Wangzhi restrained his breath and mine, picked up the cat from the ground, and I followed lightly, my heart beating louder and louder in my chest as the distance got closer.

The moment he stepped out of the thick fog, his vision suddenly became clear.

A few dead trees stand sparsely on the open flat ground, thousands of new and old graves stretch forward from left to right, white flags are inserted on the top of the graves, the road is sprinkled with money and banknotes, countless blurred white shadows shuttle among them, They all held a white paper lantern with the word "囍" in their hands, and they were waiting in groups and floating on the side of the road.

No wonder the yin energy in the woods is so heavy, this, this is clearly... a hundred ghosts send off their relatives!

But who is the married person?
I was terrified and looked around, always feeling uneasy.

The dark green candlelight dances in the paper lanterns, flickering and slowly converging.

All of a sudden, from a distance where the candlelight was flickering, there came a faintly desolate and playful suona. It sounded like a mourning song at first, but when it got closer, I realized that it was a happy song with a different key.

Bai Ying, who had been waiting on the side of the road for a long time, became restless, crying and laughing for a while facing the direction of the strange suona.

My ears were full of howling ghosts, and I subconsciously leaned closer to Liu Wangzhi, staring at the brighter and brighter green lights in the distance, and my nerves tensed up.

Paper money all over the sky was falling in the flowing mist, and the guard of honor to welcome the relatives marched mightily holding the white banners with "囍" pasted on them. Eight giant squirrels with a height of half a person were wearing red coats, smiling with naked mouse eyes. , was carrying a scarlet sedan chair, staggering through the thousand-mile cemetery.

Countless white shadows followed the sedan chair with lanterns in hand. I looked at the sedan chair passing below, and my eyes widened!

The scarlet-like sedan chair was covered with snakes, and two dark green lanterns swayed in the mist.

A gust of wind blew the curtain of the sedan chair slightly, and the beautiful lady in red makeup sat in the sedan chair and smiled cunningly.

My lips trembled, I grabbed the sleeve of the person next to me, and said in a low voice, "Liu Wangzhi, isn't that...?!"

"Yeah." Liu Wangzhi touched the struggling black cat in his arms, his pair of cold peach blossom pools were unfathomable, "It's Bai Mengyue."
