?Chapter 14: The Past of Retribution ([-])

The two girls were found, and the matter came to an end.Liuxue could see that Xia Li didn't like to meddle in other people's business, but she still wanted to visit Li's house.

"Then shall we go to Li's house?" After Liu Xue asked, she found Tian Yi's expression was a little weird, and even Xia Li frowned slightly thinking about something. "What's wrong?"

As soon as Tian stretched out his hand and pointed ahead, he saw an older two-story building at the foot of the mountain.Some distance away, Liu Xue couldn't see very clearly, she could only see the roof with black tiles, and she could vaguely see a few green spots on the black tiles, which should be moss and weeds.

"What's wrong with that house? Haunted house? That's just right, haunted house adventure." Liuxue thinks it's very possible. Generally, haunted houses have weeds and moss on the roof. up.Moreover, haunted houses are generally very cloudy, which is very suitable for growing moss.

Xia Li chuckled, and said: "If it's a haunted house, then there are no living people in it. Don't worry, there are living people living in it, so it should be the Li family's house."

"Live?" Liuxue looked at Xia Li and Tianyi. "Then why do you look like a ghost?" Don't tell me who you are, even a blind person can feel that those two people... No, the aura around those two non-human beings has changed.

Xia Li didn't speak, but looked at Liu Xue with a half-smile.

The beauty smiled, although it wasn't a sweet smile, it was more like a sneer, but it also made Liu Xue feel dizzy.The rabbit jumped to the top of Liuxue's head, standing tall and looking far away, it was looking hard with its big eyes open, after watching for a while, it said: "There is death in that room."

The dizzy Liu Xue blinked her eyes, "Deadly?"

Rabbit nods.

Seeing that Liuxue didn't understand, Tianyi took over the words and said, "In less than ten days, the Li family must have something to do."

Liuxue blinked again, and asked, "For nothing? Someone in the Li family is going to die?!"

"There is a kind of monster called Heart Nightmare. If someone has done something wrong and is anxious all day long, it is easy to bring it into the house. At that time, it will slowly devour that person's life. When that person dies, it will It will continue to stay in that family and continue to devour other members of the family, but fortunately it doesn't eat much, it can eat one person in about a year or two." Xia Li said. "When the nightmare eats the last bite of that person's life, that person will die within ten days. It may be due to illness or an accident, because that person will already be dead at that time."

Liuxue understood a little bit, he looked at the small building at the foot of the mountain and said, "It means that another person in Li's family was swallowed up by a nightmare? But in the house of the panicked family..."

"The two sons of the Li family killed Erya. They should have been children at that time. Even if they weren't children, it's normal to be afraid. For those two children, they killed a living person. .” Tianyi said. "I'm afraid that's when they brought the nightmare to the Li family."

Rabbit explained: "Nightmare is like the fine mole crickets in our courtyard, living under someone's house and devouring that family's life."

"Devouring life? Does that mean that the accidents that have happened to the Li family in the past few decades are not retribution but monsters?!" Liuxue looked at Xia Li and asked. "Sister, is there any way to get rid of it?"

"Why drive it away? After it finishes eating, it will leave naturally." Xia Li said leisurely, hugging her chest. "These things are better left unchecked."

"Sister, how could you do this! That's human life!" Liu Xue couldn't help but shouted at Xia Li. "I won't talk to you anymore!" Saying that, Liu Xue ran towards the small building.

"You..." Xia Li was stunned by the yelling, her eyes widened immediately, and after a while, she stomped her feet and said. "If you don't listen to the old man's words, you will suffer sooner or later!"

Although a little angry, Xia Li still chased after her.

Liuxue came to the front of the small building, and the two-story small building looked more like a haunted house. In front of the small building, weeds were overgrown, but in this summer, not even a bug was seen.And...he felt a deep yin.

"This..." The rabbit's small eyes suddenly widened. "Many people have died in this building, and their souls have been scattered, bound here, floating in bits and pieces." Rabbit rarely became serious. "It's not as simple as just a nightmare, Xue, let's go back."

Liu Xue pursed her lips and remained silent.

"Liu Xue..." Tianyi stepped forward and stopped Liu Xue behind him. "It's really not that simple here. If you really want to take care of it, you must never leave my side."

Tianyi knew Liuxue's temperament, and he was also the tutor of the Abe family since he was a child. When encountering a demon wounding someone, he couldn't let it go.

She looked back at Liu Xue, saw Liu Xue nodded, and knocked on the door lightly.

To be honest, Liuxue was somewhat contradictory, not only from the expressions of Tianyi and Rabbit, but also from the lingering yin in this room, he felt a faint chill down his back, his blood was slowly congealing, as if something Something binds him like that.

"Humph..." With a soft hum from beside her, Liuxue saw Xia Li coming to her side, her phoenix eyes were half-closed, her willow eyebrows were not raised, and she looked like I was very angry, very angry.

Seeing Xia Li following, Liu Xue knew that her sister was still worried about herself.He also knew that Xia Li was doing it for his own good, because he was afraid that he would be in danger, so he let him mind his own business.Thinking that she had yelled at him just now, Liu Xue immediately accompanied her smiling face, showing a sunny smile.

Xia Li: "..." Where did the second idiot come from!

Xia Li gave him a supercilious look, and Liuxue continued to smirk.

"Who is it?" At this moment, the door opened slightly, and a white-haired old man appeared in front of everyone.The old man looked over 80 years old, but he was old and full of energy.

Liuxue took a step forward, bowed slightly to the old man, and said politely: "This is the first time we meet, please forgive me if I disturb you. My name is Liuxue, are you Mr. Li?" He is a very knowledgeable child.

The old man looked at Liu Xue, although he didn't know the child, but he smiled kindly when he saw that he was respectful and polite.Then he looked at Xia Li and Tianyi, nodded slightly and said, "I'm Mr. Li, what do you want?"

He could see that these people were not simple, and his impression of them was——Liu Xue, a polite boy wearing a cloth rabbit headdress.Xia Li, in a yellow nightgown, is pretty, she doesn't know the gender.Tianyi, Gao Leng Yujie.Rabbits are automatically ignored as headgear.

"I want to go inside and have a look?" Liuxue asked.

Mr. Li was stunned for a moment, and then smiled kindly: "Little friend, I'm sorry, this room may not be clean, it's better not to go in, if you have anything to say here."

When Mr. Li said this, Liu Xue and the others were all stunned.Listening to his words, Mr. Li knew that there were unclean things in this room.

Liuxue looked at Xia Li, and Xia Li looked at Mr. Li with a smile, without saying anything.

Seeing their reaction, Mr. Li thought they didn't believe it. He wanted to explain a few words, but he didn't know how to explain it. He opened his mouth and said nothing, so the two sides just looked like this - wide-eyed and small-eyed.

After a long time, Liuxue said: "Well... I'm actually a psychic, I think there should be something I can help you with." Since Mr. Li knew something, Liuxue also directly revealed his identity.

"Psyker?" Elder Li pondered over these three words, as if he was remembering something.

"Maybe we can talk about Erya." Xia Li said suddenly. "You should forget about that little girl."

"Erya!" Mr. Li was stunned. For the past 60 years, this name has been lingering in his mind. Whenever he wants to forget, there is always a voice reminding him. "Is it her? Is she in this room?"

He looked back at the room, and said to himself, "So it's her... retribution... so it's really retribution..."

"Mr. Li, don't get me wrong. It's not Erya. She's not here. She's already reincarnated." Hearing what Mr. Li said, Liu Xue knew that he thought what happened to the Li family in the past few decades was Erya's revenge. That little girl looked innocent and pitiful, Liuxue felt that it was necessary to help her complain first.

Anyway, Mr. Li invited them into the house.They were sitting in the living room, and Mr. Li went to the kitchen to give them three cups of tea.

After entering the room, Liuxue and the others felt that the room had a faint fragrance of flowers, and the yin energy was much less. It didn't seem like it was deliberately covered up, but something should be dispelling it.

Liuxue looked at the furnishings in the living room, it was very simple, there was a sofa, a coffee table, and a TV. There was a vase on the coffee table, with a few lilies in it. The faint scent of the flowers should be the scent of the lilies in the vase.The walls are all white, and there is a shrine in front of one wall, which enshrines Guanyin.

Guanyin...

"Mr. Li, do you believe in Buddhism?" Liuxue asked, and as soon as she finished asking, she saw Mr. Li bring out another plate of cookies from the kitchen. In an instant, his eyes lit up.

Mr. Li nodded, sat across from them, and said with a helpless smile: "Actually, I'm a party member, and I shouldn't believe in religion, but what happened in the house in the past few decades, I have to believe in the cycle of cause and effect." , People are doing it, and God is watching.”

Liuxue stared at the cookies with sparkling eyes, Mr. Li smiled, put the plate in front of him, and said: "I baked this myself, my Xiao Yuan likes it very much, try it, the more you like it Eat some."

"Well, I'm not impolite." Liu Xue picked up the cookie. "I'm starting, woo! Oh vaguely! I have to eat another piece, um, it's delicious, eat another piece..."

Tianyi: "..." It's too embarrassing.

Xia Li: "..." I don't know him.

Rabbit: "..." Are the cookies delicious?

Mr. Li was always smiling kindly, with clear eyes and a good complexion.Xia Li found that there was a layer of faint light around Mr. Li, which was very weak and not obvious, covering the whole body.Suddenly, as if he felt something, he suddenly raised his head, looked at the ceiling again, and saw a black shadow flash past.

After Liuxue ate six cookies in one go, seeing everyone looking at her, she felt a little embarrassed, put down the seventh cookie she just picked up tremblingly, laughed twice and said, "Can you stop doing this?" Are you looking at me?"

"Eat more if you like it." Seeing Liu Xue eating happily, Mr. Li was quite happy. "I'll take some back in a paper bag for you in a while."

"Thank you so much." Liuxue's eyes became bright again, and the smile on her face was like a peony flower.

Tianyi couldn't help pinching Liuxue, Liuxue let out a groan, Tianyi quickly stuffed a cookie into his mouth, so...

"Cough cough cough..."

Ignoring the choking Liuxue, Tianyi asked, "How do you know the room is not clean?"

Mr. Li sighed, and seemed to be organizing his words.

Tianyi could see that the old man in front of him didn't have spiritual power, he was just an ordinary old man, if there was any difference, he had a sense of righteousness, which made it difficult for demons to approach.It's a pity that now that righteousness has turned into a faint halo, which will disappear soon.

Seeing that Mr. Li didn't speak, Tianyi asked again: "You know about Erya, right? Why didn't you say it at the beginning?"

"Hey..." Elder Li sighed again. "I know about Erya, and this is the only wrong thing I did in my life."

Elder Li lowered his eyes halfway, and slowly talked about what happened to Erya 60 years ago.At that time, the two children told Mr. Li as soon as they got home. At that time, Mr. Li had just joined the village branch. He was afraid that he would be expelled if the news spread, and that his two sons would be arrested, jailed and shot. He concealed this matter, and only he and his wife knew about it in the entire Li family.

Unexpectedly, not long after, his wife died of illness, and in the next few years, his parents also passed away. 60 years later, the once huge Li family has only three generations of relatives who killed Erya at that time. Youngest son and his great-grandson Li Yuan.The youngest great-grandson is six years old this year, and the youngest son went crazy 50 years ago and has been locked in the upstairs cabin.

"Sometimes I can always see a strange black shadow on the roof, which disappears immediately. Xiao Yuan also said that there was something next to him when he was sleeping at night, and that thing sometimes followed him." Mr. Li said. "Now Xiao Yuan dare not sleep alone, he is also pitiful. His father died when his mother was pregnant with him. When he was three years old, his mother had another car accident and left."

"Wait..." Liuxue suddenly wanted to go, looked at Tianyi and asked, "You said there is death in this room, who is it? It can't be Xiaoyuan, right?"

Hearing what Mr. Li said, it is very likely that the death anger Tianyi saw belonged to Li Yuan. Considering that the child was only six years old, Liu Xue felt that she must not let this matter go unnoticed.

Mr. Li also heard Liuxue say that there was death in the house, maybe it belonged to Xiaoyuan, and he was also anxious.All these years, he has been sending the white-haired people to the black-haired people, and now if something happens to this little great-grandson, he doesn't want to live anymore.He stepped forward and grabbed Liu Xue, bent his knees, and knelt straight in front of Liu Xue, pleading: "You must save him, it's all my fault, it has nothing to do with him." No, he is innocent, just an innocent child."

When I was learning Chinese before, I heard my mother say an idiom - old tears flow horizontally and horizontally. When a person is old, his face is full of wrinkles, and the tears will flow down along the mottled traces of the years.Seeing the eighty-year-old man kneeling in front of her now, Liu Xue felt unspeakably uncomfortable.
