The Witch of Xiangxi

Chapter 44 Zhongxie
When Ah Shan's mother heard what her husband said, she also felt that it was reasonable, so she held back.

The next day, Ashan's mother got up early, prepared breakfast, and waited for the young couple to wake up.But until the sun was high, the young couple didn't see them getting up.

Mother Ah Shan smiled and thought, the young couple was exhausted after tossing and tossing for most of the night last night, so let them sleep more.The warmth between the young couple is a good thing, it means that their family will soon have a new generation.

Ah Shan's mother and Ah Shan's father had dinner first, and then went to work in the fields.When the husband and wife came back from the field at noon, the young couple Ah Shan hadn't woken up yet!

This is a bit wrong, no matter what, you can't sleep late and sleep until such an hour.It's easy to talk about my own son, but the newly married daughter-in-law doesn't want to be so pampered. If she develops the problem of being too sleepy in the future, it will be impossible for the two of them to take care of her little one in the future. ?Ah Shan's mother lost her temper at this moment.Went to the new house and knocked hard on the door, but there was no movement inside.

Mother Ah Shan couldn't help being angry, so she slammed the door open, and her people also entered the room.But when she looked into the room, she saw Ah Shan's big feet protruding from the quilt, and she was sleeping soundly while covering her head, but she couldn't see her new daughter-in-law.Ah Shan's mother wanted to go to the bed and pick Ah Shan up. When she walked over, a burst of soil suddenly fell from the beams of the house. When she looked up, she was so scared that her voice went out of tune.

A Shan's father heard the sound was wrong, and he didn't care about his father-in-law's identity. He rushed to the new house and saw A Shan's mother sitting on the ground, her face was as white as snowflakes, and she pointed at the beam with dumb eyes.Dad Ah Shan looked up and almost peed in fright.The bride was hanging high on the beam, with big eyes and tongue sticking out.

The bride hanged herself on her wedding night, which was a fatal disaster.Ah Shan's father was also frightened, and when he came to his senses, he patted Ah Shan who was still soundly asleep on the bed, telling him to get up quickly, the sky was falling.

But no matter how Ah Shan's father yelled, Ah Shan just lay there motionless.Ah Shan's father was in a hurry, and pulled off the quilt covering Ah Shan, only to see Ah Shan lying on his back with his upper body naked, his face had turned blue and purple, and his eyeballs were about to come out of their sockets like.

Ah Shan is dead too!
Two people lost their lives in one night, and the happy event turned into a loss. How could Ah Shan's mother and Ah Shan's father survive such a blow, as if they lost half of their lives at once.

When Xia Xiangxi, grandpa, and Ma Po rushed over after hearing the news, Ah Shan's mother was already half crazy, holding Ah Shan's body and coaxing her like a child, as if Ah Shan had turned back to one or two months old in her eyes. baby.

When Ma Po saw that Ah Shan was dead, she immediately passed away with a scream.

Soon such unfortunate news spread throughout the village, and everyone rushed over to find out what happened?
The cause of Ah Shan's death is not difficult to determine. Grandpa said that Ah Shan was smothered to death, the one who was killed, and the bride committed suicide, so it was obviously the one who killed him.But Grandpa couldn't tell, how did the petite bride suffocate Ah Shan, who was still of excellent physique?
Xia Xiangxi was first afraid of seeing dead people, and then felt distressed because of the sudden loss of two lives.Ma Po, in particular, aged a lot at once. She woke up after being in a coma for a day and a night, and kept talking nonsense when she woke up.

Ah Shan's father couldn't stand it anymore at such a moment, he couldn't help flapping his mouth, regretting that he didn't let his wife go to the new house to see what's going on last night, if his wife went to see it at that time, maybe Ah Shan wouldn't die!But it's all like this now, it's too late to regret it!
It was the grandfather who first called Ah Shan's brothers and sisters, and asked them to help Ah Shan's father with the funeral and inform the new daughter-in-law's natal family.

Xia Xiangxi felt sad just thinking about it.Ah Shan had already escaped a catastrophe, but he didn't expect Chongxi to kill two people. When the new wife's natal family came, I didn't know how to be sad. I gave a beautiful bride yesterday. , today only the hard corpse is left.

Grandpa squatted in a corner, smoking dry cigarettes non-stop.He coughed so much that he wanted to spit out his heart and liver, Xia Xiangxi advised him to put out the cigarette, but he still didn't listen.Still stuffing the cigarette holder into his mouth with trembling hands.

Xia Xiangxi knew that grandpa felt sorry for Ma Po, but what's the use of being sad?Xia Xiangxi felt that he should seek justice for the two lives of Ah Shan and his new wife.She told her grandfather that the deaths of Ah Shan and his new wife might have something to do with Huanhuan.

That night, it rained lightly like silk, and occasionally a string of lightning was pulled in the sky, but the thunder was not loud.Xia Xiangxi felt that God should be sad too, complaining about Ah Shan!
Xia Xiangxi had already fallen asleep, but when she heard the sound of her grandfather getting up, she hurriedly got dressed, ran out of the room and asked why he got up?Grandpa said he was worried about the Maple.Xia Xiangxi found an umbrella, and went to Ah Shan's house with his grandfather.

Ah Shan's house is in a mess now, several people are busy moving the tables and chairs in the yard to shelter from the rain.A flash of lightning struck from the sky, and several people screamed, saying that they saw the shadow of a hanging woman in the window of Ah Shan's new house.

Someone said it was the new daughter-in-law, that hanged ghost was begging for his life, so bluffed, the other people were frightened, and regardless of the tables and chairs to be moved, they let go and threw the ones they were carrying to the ground, and shook their hands Just run away.

I don't know who shouted "The bride is here to kill me!", and the scene became even more chaotic, as if a catastrophe was imminent, and the yard was full of people running around.A woman was knocked to the ground, and someone jumped over her and stepped on her hand, and she cried out in pain.Xia Xiangxi hurried over to help her up, and helped her find a place to hide from the rain.

With the light, Xia Xiangxi could see the woman's appearance clearly. She knew her, and she was also a family member of Ma Po's cousin, and the daughter-in-law of another cousin's nephew. I called her A Guduo.This A Guduo has been married for more than two years, has given birth to a son, and is now pregnant with her second child, and it has been more than six months.

Xia Xiangxi knew that A Guduo was pregnant, and was afraid that she would hurt the baby in her belly if she fell like that, so she hurriedly asked her if she felt uncomfortable?
A Guduo smiled and said: "It's okay, the women in the mountains are wild geese, and their lives are hard!"

Xia Xiangxi also laughed, it was so interesting listening to A Guduo talk.However, she still advised A Guduo to be careful, it was dark and rainy, and the ground was muddy and slippery, so go back quickly!If you want to help, it will be the same when you come back when the weather is better.

A Guduo sighed for a long time, nothing more than feeling sorry for such a heart-wrenching incident at Aunt Tang's house.I struggled and said some unbearable words, and finally went back.

As soon as A Guduo left, there was another commotion in the room. This time, it was Ashan's mother who went crazy, and she didn't know how to catch Ma Po, and wanted to strangle her to change justice.

Xia Xiangxi often sees Mama Ah Shan on weekdays. She is a kind and cheerful Miao woman who always smiles when she talks to people. She looks like a very simple village woman.At this moment, Mama Ashan's hair was messed up, and a pair of bulging eyes with evil light were half exposed from the messy hair. It was as scary as it could be.

The few young and strong men next to him couldn't pull Ashan's mother away.Mother Ah Shan's veins burst out in both hands, and she pinched Ma Po's neck fiercely, as if she would not stop until Ma Po was strangled to death.

Ma Po was suffocated and flailed her arms as if she had fallen into the water, trying to grab the last straw that could save her.

Seeing Ma Po starting to roll her eyes, looking like she was about to die, Xia Xiangxi was so frightened that she almost collapsed on the ground, and took two steps back to lean against the door frame.

At this time, two sounds of "bang" and "plop" were heard, and Mother Ah Shan let go of Ma Po's hand, and fell down on the ground.The young men who were about to pull A Shan's mother away saw that it was Grandpa who used a bench to knock Ah Shan's mother unconscious.

After all, grandpa is old, and the bench can't exert much strength, so there is no need to worry that mother Ah Shan's life will be in danger.On the contrary, it was Ma Po who made people worry. Her body slid to the ground like noodles, which scared Grandpa enough. Seeing that she was still gasping for breath, he was sure that she was fine.

When Ah Shan's father saw that Ah Shan's mother was knocked unconscious, he began to cry like a woman, worried that Ah Shan's mother would die again.Someone tested Ah Shan's mother's breathing and said it was all right, and then several people hurriedly carried Ah Shan's mother onto the kang.A-Shan's father leaned over to the edge of the kang, looking at the unconscious A-Shan's mother without blinking his eyes. When others asked him if he had hot water, he, like a log, didn't answer.Just there weeping like a woman, the people next to him didn't know whether to scold him for being worthless or to sympathize with him?

Ma Po was relieved for a long time, and she was fine, but there was something wrong with the throat that was pinched by Ah Shan's mother, and she even complained that her throat hurt in the next few days.

Others think that Mama Ah Shan lost her mind because she was overly sad when she just lost her mind.Grandpa didn't think so.He said that when he saw Mama Ah Shan pinching Ma Po, she looked more like a hanged ghost before she died.

Xia Xiangxi asked Grandpa if he wanted to say that Ah Shan's mother was not insane, but possessed by evil spirits and possessed by ghosts?

Grandpa said yes, not only was Ashan's mother possessed by a ghost, even the bride was possessed by an evil spirit before she died.Ah Shan was also killed by the bride of the bewitched queen.

When Xia Xiangxi heard this, his whole body felt as if he had been soaked in cold water, so cold that his teeth ached.She first thought of a person, or it couldn't be said to be a person, but a ghost, the ghost named Huanhuan.
