snake coffin

Chapter 3 I am Moxiu
I heard that my father asked me to stay at Zhang Hanzhu's house for a few days. I looked at the ambulance driving away and the snake corpses on the ground, and I felt a little panicked.

The auntie sweeping the sidewalk, saw the snake corpses in this place, and looked at the small Taoist temple of Zhang’s family next to her. She put her hands together and kept chanting, but her eyes kept looking at me, with a curious expression on her face.

I couldn't stay long, so I took a taxi back and asked for leave from my class teacher on the way.

When we got home, the door was still cordoned off. My mom and dad were standing in front of the house in pajamas. My dad was still taking notes, and my mom kept explaining. The outside was full of onlookers.

Aunt Liu from the noodle shop next door saw me, and immediately smiled: "Long Ling, you didn't sleep at home last night. Fortunately, you didn't sleep. Smack, Chen Quan's daughter-in-law upstairs in your house was drunk by your father. snake got entangled."

"What is being entangled by a snake?" I felt a little bad when I heard the snake wine, and Chen Quan's abnormal appearance always flashed in my mind.

Aunt Liu had a strange and strange expression on her face, her eyebrows and eyes seemed to be squeezed together, as if she wanted to say something but found it difficult to say.

A few bastards who usually wandered around the street next to him laughed: "It was the snake. I heard that when Chen Shun found it in the morning, the snake was still inside. It was Chen Shun. The old man pulled the snake out, hey, this father-in-law pulled the snake out of his daughter-in-law, smack! It’s amazing! ”

"It's really strange. I've heard that snakes stalk people, but this snake soaked in wine actually stalks people." Aunt Liu had a strange expression on her face: "That's also strange for Chen Quan. After his wife died, he actually went to the hospital directly. I grabbed the snake and ran away, and now I’m fine, I suspect that he did it on purpose.”

"Is that snake still running away?" I just felt chills all over my body.

Aunt Liu immediately became excited and raised her voice to speak.

In the crowd, seeing me coming back, my mother yelled at Aunt Liu: "Such a thing, what are you talking about with a child like her, it's bad luck!"

Aunt Liu giggled, and called the onlookers into her shop to eat noodles.

My mother hurriedly pulled me aside: "What are you doing back home? It's very unlucky to die. Go to school quickly and don't worry about family affairs. It happens that you live in Taoist Zhang's house and ask him to draw a talisman for you. It's bad luck, they are all people who have to take the college entrance examination, and they are so careless."

As she spoke, she took out her mobile phone: "I'll transfer some money to you. You stay at Hanzhu's house for a few days and buy some fruits, small gifts, etc. You have good eyesight. If you have any work, you can help with it. You can do your own clothes." Wash it, don't be like at home, just throw away the clothes after taking a shower, you know!"

She was very generous this time, and she transferred 1000 yuan to me directly, and even reached out to ask the driver of the motorcycle to take me off: "Go to school first, and I will pick you up and Hanzhu in the evening, and send the clothes there for you." .”

"Mom." I held my mother's hand tightly and said in a deep voice, "Does my family have a black snake-shaped jade pendant?"

As soon as I said this, my mother froze and Shen looked at me: "How do you know?"

"Last night, snakes were all dead outside Taoist Zhang's house. Taoist Zhang was bitten and sent to the hospital. Those snakes followed me." I held my mother's hand tightly.

Shen Sheng said: "The black snake in my dream came out, he told me that I must get the black snake pendant, and also look for the coffin where the snake's corpse is hidden."

My mother was shaking a little, and her eyes seemed to be beating when she looked at me.

"I heard that the woman who died upstairs in your house was killed by the snake?" The driver of the motorcycle also came over and asked curiously.

"Go away!" My mother's face was heavy, and she yelled at the driver of the motorcycle: "Don't you know how big the dead is?"

I can't enter my house for the time being. My mother took me to the milk tea shop on the side. Even the boss is watching the fun, and there is no one at all.

My mother was about to say something to me when Chen Shun's mother-in-law rushed in crying, yelling for my family to pay for their lives.

"You go directly to your hometown and ask your grandma. Your grandma knows this best. When the matter here is resolved, I will go back with your father to find you." My mother hurriedly protected me and walked out.

Pushed me to the intersection: "Take a taxi and go back. Don't be afraid to spend money. I'll transfer the money to you later."

There happened to be an acquaintance running a rickshaw on the roadside, so my mother directly asked that person to take me back to the village.

I was sitting in the car when I saw Mrs. Chen Shun yelling and jumping at my mother, who kicked her to the ground.

The driver of the black car was called Yuan Fei, and he glanced behind the rearview mirror: "Are you the daughter of Snake and Wine Dragon?"

Snake Wine Dragon is my dad's nickname, and everyone calls it that.

I hummed lightly, and Yuan Fei chuckled: "Your dad is in trouble this time. You said Chen Quan is really..."

Yuan Fei ran an unofficial car in the town, had a lot of acquaintances, and almost got a general idea of ​​the matter.

Yesterday my dad sold the snake wine for a big sale. Everyone in the town knew my dad's name. Hearing that it was cheap, there were quite a few people who bought it, and everyone was fine.

According to Chen Shun's confession, last night Chen Quan drank snake wine and was a little bit over the top, walking on the balcony and looking downstairs.

Chen Quan and his wife lived in the room above me, and they drank until the early hours of the morning.

Chen Quan was so drunk that he couldn't even walk, and he carried the bottle of snake wine into the room, saying that he wanted to have a drink with his wife to cheer him up.

"Chen Shun was still listening to the couple, it was said that it was very intense, but when he got up in the morning and went to see it, he saw Chen Quan's daughter-in-law lying naked on the ground, and the tail of the snake was still writhing on her legs. Everyone is frozen." Yuan Fei said, smacking his lips.

"Chen Shun was also brave. He pulled out the snake. As soon as he pulled it out, he heard Chen Quan scream strangely. He grabbed the snake and ran away. He probably hid somewhere to kill the snake. Alas, Chen Quan really did It’s time to play big.” Yuan Fei looked at me in the rearview mirror and smiled: “Little sister, you know how women play with snakes, right?”

But the sight of Chen Quan spitting out snake letters flashed before my eyes. When I heard Yuan Fei ask this question, I felt sick in my heart and ignored him.

Yuan Fei kept talking to himself, drove the car very fast, and left the town in a short while, heading for the small road into the village.

Our village is relatively remote. It takes more than an hour to drive from the town, and there is a long mountain road.

When Yuan Fei drove the car to a deserted place in the middle of the mountain road, he suddenly stopped the car and said to me: "Little Dragon Girl, Brother, go and make it easier for me. Do you want to come down and take care of it?"

I looked around. The road was just big enough for two cars to pass each other. The roadside was overgrown with weeds. I always felt unsafe. I shook my head at Yuan Fei: "Hurry up."

"I know, the little girl is very vigilant." Yuan Fei smiled at me, picked up his trousers and walked towards the woods next to him, humming a song.

I was afraid that something might happen, so I rolled up the windows and closed the door tightly.

Just when I closed the door, I heard a weak voice in my ear saying: "He is here."

I was still a little curious about where that sound came from, and then I heard Yuan Fei laughing strangely while he was solving the problem in the woods.

Following him, he seemed to see something, and walked slowly into the woods, but his hand was pulling on the bottom of his trousers, and he slowly pulled it away.

And beside the tree Yuan Fei walked past, Chen Quan, with the wine snake wrapped around his neck, came out from behind a big tree.

His head slowly twisted with the snake's head wrapped around his neck, and his eyes shone with a faint green light in the shade of the tree.

The snake's head slowly raised up, opened its mouth, spit out the snake letter, and hissed.

Chen Quan also followed the snake head, opening his mouth and sticking out his tongue, making a hissing sound.

A long distance away, I was in the car, watching a man and a snake spit out letters, and the voice calling me sounded in my head: "Long Ling, Long Ling..."

Yuan Fei had already gone into the woods. I patted the window and shouted for Yuan Fei to come back, but Yuan Fei seemed not to hear me at all and kept walking into the woods.

Instead, Chen Quan walked towards me slowly with the snake wrapped around his neck.

The voice in my ear yelled at me: "Go quickly, go back and find the black snake pendant."

I looked at the car keys, then at Yuan Fei, feeling ruthless, and quickly climbed into the cab, flashing through my mind what my dad said when he taught me to drive.

Turn on the ignition, step on the clutch, put in gear, release the brake, and go straight away with one kick of the accelerator.

As soon as I started the car, Chen Quan rushed towards the front of the car, lying on the front of the car, grinning, sticking out his forked tongue, hissing strangely at me.

And the snake wrapped around his neck rushed towards me with bared teeth, as if it was about to pierce through the glass and pounce on my face.

I was so frightened that I couldn't even hold the steering wheel steadily, and I couldn't make a sound. I tried hard to press on the operation panel, trying to find the wiper.

At this moment, a black shadow flashed beside me, followed by a powerful stream of water that swept across the front windshield, washing away the snake and Chen.

I hurriedly turned my head and looked to the side, and saw the man in black wearing a black robe, sitting next to me looming.

His handsome face was pale, and he seemed out of breath. His pink and white lips were slightly open: "Long Ling, go back and get the black snake pendant first."

"Who are you?" When I was driving for the first time, I was startled and scared, my palms and forehead were covered with sweat.

The black-robed man glanced at me and said in a low voice, "I'm Mo Xiu, Long Ling, you don't remember me."
