Chapter 9 Xiangxi Doubts
Stinky Tofu is a five or six-year-old boy. When several people followed the children, he was lying on the bed, his cheeks were abnormally red, and there were big spots of sweat on his forehead. His mother was sitting on the head of the bed. He was fed water spoonfuls, but the stinky tofu couldn't be swallowed at all. His mother had to hold the bowl in one hand and a handkerchief in the other to keep wiping off the overflowing water from the corners of his son's mouth.
Seeing Yin Ranyi and his group coming in with a camera on their shoulders, the middle-aged woman's first reaction was to stand up and protect her son with her hands slightly apart, scanning them with probing eyes: "Who are you?"
The child who led Yin Ranyi and the others hurriedly said, "Auntie, they know how to see a doctor, let's show Stinky Tofu!"
Stinky Tofu's father was a silent farmer. He walked up to his wife and took the water bowl. He said in a low voice, "They are from the country and can treat diseases."
The woman then relaxed, and hurriedly stepped aside and said earnestly to them: "Who is the doctor? Why does my stinky tofu have a fever?"
Lezheng Li couldn't help feeling a little emotional when he saw it. In this backward old mountainous area, the "country" and "central government" were such a lofty existence for them, allowing farmers who had never met before to let go of their prejudices and completely understand Take their word for it, this is unimaginable in any city with a slightly higher level of development.
Thinking that he was not a professional doctor, Le Zhengli was a little embarrassed, but at the moment he was carrying the medicine box on his shoulders, the woman obviously regarded him as a doctor, and hurried up to hold his hand, the skin on the other side was so rough that it was a bit prickly Slightly hot, it seems to indicate the excitement in the owner's heart: "This little brother is a doctor, right? Come and see this child..."
Lezheng Li didn't dare to refuse, so he hurriedly stepped forward to look at the child. He felt that it was very hot just by taking the temperature test on the back of his hand. People go to pour water.The child's mother hurriedly picked it up and went to the kitchen to pour water. Yin Ranyi stepped forward and stood by the bed, looked down at the child, and said, "Changxie."
Le Zhengli looked up at him: "...Huh?"
Yin Ranyi pointed to the obvious blue and black under the child's eyes: "Evil energy enters the body."
The two of them spoke in an extremely low voice, so the other people in the room couldn't hear what they said clearly. Le Zhengli guessed that Yin Ranyi didn't want too many people to know about it, so he blinked his eyes and looked at him. A few people standing at the door said: "The child has a fever, the air in this room is not good, don't all crowd here, open the windows to ventilate."
The child's father quickly opened the window, and invited the other three to sit in the main room. Le Zhengli took Yin Ranyi's arm and asked, "Are you really good at catching ghosts?"
Although they talked about Yin Ranyi's ability to catch ghosts in the conversation with Xia Ming and the others on the train, Le Zhengli was more or less half-believed about it. It wasn't until Yin Ranyi mentioned the matter of seducing souls the night before that Le Zhengli believed it. Eighty-nine points, now that he said calmly that the child was evil, it was even more inexplicable to feel that Yin Ranyi did have some real skills.
Yin Ranyi's eyes lingered on Le Zhengli's left hand that was holding his wrist for a moment, but he didn't break away. He just answered the question: "It's not serious, just catch a rooster and kill it for bloodletting, just feed it a bowl of warm blood."
Lezheng Li was taken aback for a moment, and then realized that it was about stinky tofu hitting evil, and said, "Then I'll go and tell the parents of the child, as long as the rooster is enough?"
Yin Ranyi nodded, "It's a rooster that has lived for six years."
Lezheng Li nodded and remembered that when he was in school, he knew that there was an ancient custom, which said that "a dog does not last for eight years, and a chicken does not last for six years", that is, dogs should not be kept for more than eight years, and chickens should not be kept for more than six years. The folk customs in this mountain area are really simple, I don't know if they still follow this ancient rule, at this moment Yin Ranyi must only have a six-year-old rooster, and I don't know if he can find it.
At this moment, the child's mother came in with the prepared granule, and Lezheng Li told her what Yin Ranyi had just said. The woman was very happy when she heard the words. There happened to be a big rooster in the Taoist family who wanted to kill it. Here's to them.
Soon, a bowl of bright red chicken blood was brought up, and the stinky tofu was poured down by the father pinching his nose. After a while, he lay on the bed and coughed up a puddle of black blood, and his complexion improved. Many, the parents of the child were terrified when they saw the pool of black blood, and hurriedly asked what was wrong with the child, their mouths trembling slightly when they spoke.
Yin Ranyi only said that he was fine and stopped talking, Le Zhengli had no choice but to take over the conversation to appease the two parents, saying that the child's evil spirit had been forced out, and the black blood spewed on the ground was the crux of the problem. Now that you spit it out, it's fine.When he said this, he was also a little uncertain, so he glanced at Yin Ranyi from the corner of his eye, and the latter stood aside calmly, and when he saw him looking over, he nodded slightly, as if to say: Yes, you Quite right.
When the child recovered, the group started the official interview. When the villagers heard that Stinky Tofu's family had come, the TV station personnel gathered around and crowded in front of the camera to tell the weird rumors of these days.
Lezheng Li sat in the courtyard of Stinky Tofu's house and took a pen and paper to write down the most important things the villagers said. Tang Zhongliu looked at Kong and bumped him on the shoulder, asking, "Hey, little carp, These villagers speak amazingly, can you hear the truth?"
Le Zhengli looked up at him, took a pen and sketched a few points in his notebook, and said: "What they said is nothing more than the following: First, someone saw strangely dressed people driving corpses on the mountain road from afar. Second, the color of the mountain road is so red that it looks like blood stained, and third, no one dares to go there to see it... Oh, by the way, a few adventurers from other places have come here these days and said they want to find the truth..."
As he spoke, he frowned and muttered: "Since these villagers saw it from a distance, how can they be sure that it must be a corpse?"
Before he finished speaking, someone snatched up the words: "You little brat, why don't you trust people? The people in our mountains have good eyesight, but the thing that the monster is driving is stiff, with both feet pointing to the ground and floating forward. Hey! Isn’t that a dead person!”
When Le Zhengli saw that it was an old woman with gray hair, she hurriedly smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, it's not that I don't trust you... I... I'm just talking casually."
As he was talking, he suddenly saw Yin Ranyi move the camera over and point it at him to shoot, Le Zhengli tilted his head towards him to avoid the camera: "Why are you filming me?"
Yin Ranyi poked his head out from behind the machine to look at him, and said solemnly: "It's on camera, sit back."
"... Oh." Le Zhengli felt that he shouldn't avoid the camera when he said this, so he shrank his neck and sat back in response.
Seeing that he sat down obediently, Yin Ranyi nodded expressionlessly, and then resumed shooting.
After the filming was over, several people discussed to take a look at the "ghost bumping" mountain road. After hearing the news, some tourists in the village came to ask if they could go with them. Xia Ming refused, saying that the mountain road It's rough and difficult, and I advise them not to go without authorization to avoid accidents.
Those young people obviously didn't care much about Xia Ming's words, seeing that they insisted on refusing to bring him with them, they left after a few perfunctory words.
The next day, the film crew was led by Brother Wang to the mountain road where they met the corpse driver. Before departure, Mrs. Wang prepared some homemade dry food for them, and when they were ready, they sent them all the way to the At the entrance of the village, everyone must be careful and safe.
Speaking of which, everyone is not very worried about this corpse exorcist. After all, even if you say that you are breaking the sky, this exorcism of corpses is just a handicraft. That's right, they don't care about anything else; but the only thing that makes them a little strange is that generally speaking, the exorcists work at sunset and rest at sunrise, just to avoid bumping into ordinary people and scaring ordinary people. How could the mortician drive away the corpse in broad daylight, and let so many mountain people see it?
Although everyone had a lot of guesses in their hearts, they could only mutter in their hearts without seeing it with their own eyes, but Wei Yihong said that this was probably some novice apprentice who frightened the villagers because he didn't know the rules.
After hearing this, Le Zhengli didn't believe it. His intuition told him that Yin Ranyi might know the truth, but the other party just listened and didn't talk about it all the way. He was using his life to explain what "silence is golden", so he had to slow down slowly. , until he and Yin Ranyi were at the end of the team, and then quietly asked: "Yin Ranyi, what do you think is driving the mortician?"
He raised his head and looked at Yin Ranyi, his eyes widened slightly, full of curiosity, Yin Ranyi looked down at him, shook his head, and seemed unwilling to speak even if he was beaten to death.
Lezheng Li didn't want to force it, and shrugged at him: "Okay, if you don't say it, you won't say it, but you are so positive, even if there are monsters, you will be scared away by you." After finishing speaking, he curled his mouth first Laughed.
Yin Ranyi still looked down at him and didn't speak, but Xia Ming, who was walking in front, lowered his voice and muttered: "Why is this Yin Ranyi so good-tempered today? Isn't it because he doesn't like to get close to people?"
Tang Zhongliu glanced back indiscriminately, and asked doubtfully, "Could it be that he owes Comrade Li Yu money?"
The further you go, the deeper the forest on both sides. Brother Wang pointed to a valley not far away and said: "Crossing the valley is where Lao Zhou and the others saw the monster. Let's rest for a while and climb over the valley later."
This road took a lot of detours in the dense forest. Fortunately, the scenery of the mountains and forests in late summer and early autumn is very good, and even the air has the unique freshness and sweetness of the mountains. At this moment, everyone just found a place in the grass and sat down. Resting, Brother Wang distributed the dry food he was carrying with several people, and everyone was really hungry, so they immediately took it and ate it politely.
After Wei Yihong ate the dry food, he said he was going to take a rest, so he turned a few times into the forest, and everyone sat in the same place waiting for him, but after a while, they heard Wei Yihong's exclamation not far away: "Ah! "
His voice was very loud, and as soon as he finished speaking, flocks of birds flew up in the forest, but the voice was full of fear, as if he had been immersed in a frozen lake in the coldest winter, full of biting coldness and fear!
Seeing Yin Ranyi and his group coming in with a camera on their shoulders, the middle-aged woman's first reaction was to stand up and protect her son with her hands slightly apart, scanning them with probing eyes: "Who are you?"
The child who led Yin Ranyi and the others hurriedly said, "Auntie, they know how to see a doctor, let's show Stinky Tofu!"
