Chapter 31: Plague Village 7
"It's not worth being surprised about any strange disease in this world, okay?" Zhou Xiaozhen didn't understand why everyone was worried about a dead body, "There are even ghosts, so why is it so strange that a virus can turn a person's brain into such a thing?" Is it?"
I have to say that Zhou Xiaozhen's words still make some sense. Although Yu Xiao thought it was a bit strange, but because of her lack of experience, she asked others uncertainly, "Have you ever encountered this kind of situation before?"
"There is nothing similar." Sun Yun said: "But I have encountered one that is outrageous than this."
"There is a saying that the human soul exists in the brain." Luo Jin put his hand into the coffin and placed it on the head of the corpse, "so some people choose to destroy the other's brain when killing people."
He squeezed his hand into a fist and placed it on the head of the corpse, as if he had smashed the head with a punch.
Yu Xiao pondered for a moment, and said, "Dig out the other graves to have a look."
They dug a few more graves, including the grave of the village chief who was just buried today.
No matter when these corpses died, their heads were broken, except for the village head who had just died.
"Why is the village chief okay?" Zhou Xiaozhen asked suspiciously, "Could it be because he is the only one who didn't die of illness?"
"It's possible." At this moment, a cloud just blocked the moonlight, and Zhao Lan said a little uncomfortably, "We've been here for a long time, will we encounter ghosts?"
Yu Xiao squeezed the thing in his hand that didn't even dare to struggle, and said, "Haven't we already met?"
"That's a water ghost." Zhao Lan looked at the corpses dug up by them around him, "There are so many graves here, it's hard to guarantee that there won't be a few ghosts."
As soon as the words fell, Luo Jin withdrew his hand and said, "There are no ghosts here."
"what?"
Several people didn't hear clearly, Luo Jin raised his head, his eyes were calm and indifferent under his slightly long bangs, "There are no ghosts here."
"Really?" Zhao Lan asked, "How do you know?"
"Hey, since Lao Luo said there are no ghosts here, then there really are no ghosts." Lu Xun smiled and explained for Luo Jin, "My brother is very sensitive to ghosts, and he doesn't like to lie. He said there are no ghosts here, so maybe It's just gone."
Everyone has stayed here for too long, and it is almost dawn, and if you delay for a while, you will probably be discovered by the villagers. So they hurriedly filled the graves back, and then returned to their residence by the same route.
As soon as he entered the door, Yu Xiao rushed into the kitchen to find the pressure cooker, but the ghost was too big to stuff it in.
Zhao Lan rolled up his sleeves, "Let me do it!"
Hearing a "click", the ghost screamed.
Zhou Xiaozhen watched Zhao Lan put the lid on, with a look of displeasure, "The ghost seems to have broken a bone."
Zuo Qing, who came over to see, asked, "Do ghosts have bones?"
"Ah..." Zhou Xiaozhen fell into deep thought.
Yu Xiao pasted a lightning strike talisman on the lid, Zuo Qing and the others looked enviously. Wang Yang even asked: "Boss, how many talismans do you have?"
Because Yu Xiao draws symbols too fast and the success rate is too high, in the end she didn't count much, anyway, enough is enough. Wang Yang asked her suddenly, she thought for a while and gave a rough number, "It's only a few dozen."
"..."
That is...
For them who have worked so hard to save a talisman and are reluctant to use it, this number is simply a fantasy.
Zhang Feng ignored the fear, wiped the saliva that didn't exist at the corner of his mouth, and asked, "Boss, you must be the top ten boss in the scoreboard, right?"
"Of course!" Zhou Xiaozhen put her hands on her hips triumphantly, "Our sister Xiao is number one in the standings..."
Yu Xiao: "!!"
Zhao Lan: "..."
Everyone else looked at Yu Xiao in shock, "You are..."
"That's right." Yu Xiao took a deep look at Zhou Xiaozhen, and then said confidently: "You should all have heard of me on the morning news, right, I am Zhuge Liang who set fire to Pansidong."
"..."
"Damn it!" Wang Yang's face turned red with excitement, this was the closest he was to number one in the standings, even though it wasn't from their hospital.
"I know you!" Zuo Qing's eyes flashed with the expression of seeing the idol, "I often hear you on the news, at first I thought you were a man. God, I'm so excited, I'm sorry I'm too Excited..."
Seeing their excitement, Yu smiled with an unfathomable expression on his face.
Zhou Xiaozhen knew that she had said something wrong, she blamed herself deeply, she must change her habit of being unable to hide things when she gets excited.
"Okay, it's getting late." Zhao Lan quickly changed the subject, "Hurry up and sleep for a while before dawn. There are still things to do before dawn."
Yu Xiao walked towards the room with the pressure cooker in his arms, when he suddenly heard a chuckle.
Turning around, she found that Lu Xun was holding back her laughter, and she said, "What are you laughing at?"
"Huh?" Lu Xun said without changing his expression, "I want to laugh when I think about what will happen after dawn."
Because of a busy night, everyone was a little tired, and fell asleep soon after returning to the room. It felt like I hadn't slept for a few minutes before I closed my eyes, when there was a loud noise outside.
A middle-aged woman in bright red and green rushed into the room in a hurry, and exaggeratedly shouted as soon as she entered, "Oh my God! This is really outrageous!"
Everyone trembled in fright, and vigilantly lifted the quilt and sat up. Seeing that it was a villager, they breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's already high in the sun and you can't get up!" The woman's eyes almost rolled into the sky, "After that, I will be someone's wife, how will I live my life!"
Zuo Qing rubbed his eyes, wondering: "Who is this woman? What are you doing here?"
The woman rushed towards the innermost bed as she said that, everyone saw that Yu Xiao was still asleep.
"Still asleep! Get up!"
Yu Xiao was sleeping soundly, when the quilt was thrown off suddenly. Opening her eyes, a woman with her face painted like a monkey's **** was standing in front of her bed with her hands on her hips, saying something with an exaggerated expression.
She didn't hear a word, she was deaf again...
Yu Xiao looked at Zhao Lan blankly, Zhao Lan knew her expression just by looking at her, Xiao Xiao went deaf again.
The woman scolded Yu Xiao all the way, the woman in front of her looked stupid, and she didn't respond to scolding her. After she finished counting, she started to talk about business, "Which of you is Zhou Xiao?"
Everyone was silent, and then pointed at one person in unison.
"Zhou Xiao is you?!" The woman looked at Yu Xiao incredulously, and sized her up and down for a while, "You look pretty good, and you can be considered pretty if you dress up well. But it's not enough to be a daughter-in-law, you have to be diligent and virtuous..."
Let's talk a lot, Yu Xiao still didn't respond, the woman felt that talking was boring, so she took out a red thing from her pocket and stuffed it in Yu Xiao's hand, "This is a marriage certificate, It's ready. The clothes have been delivered, and the team to pick up the bride will come in the afternoon, so you can pack yourself quickly."
After she finished speaking, she thought of something, and looked at Yu Xiao with a half-smile, "Actually, you are quite smart. I heard that you brought four girls as dowry? That's fine, let them do the housework, and you Can take it easy."
After speaking, the woman turned her buttocks and went out.
The people who left half of the room were in complicated moods, while the people in the half of the room looked confused.
"What?" Wang Yang looked blank, "What did she mean by what she just said?"
Lu Xun wanted to explain, but couldn't open his mouth. So he looked at Luo Jin, and said to himself that your uncle insists on marrying me, so let you explain to them.
In the end, Luo Jin didn't even look at him, and just left there in a daze.
Yu Xiao couldn't hear it, but after seeing the marriage certificate in her hand, she probably understood what was going on. Zhou Xiaozhen jumped out of bed and rushed outside, and after a while she came in with a lot of red clothes.
"It's a wedding dress!" Zhou Xiaozhen looked at it over and over for a while, "It's strange, why is there only one piece that is bright red, and the rest are all pink?"
Zhao Lan said: "Because only the wife can wear big red."
"No." Zuo Qing and the others became more and more confused, "What's going on? What are you talking about?"
Zhao Lan glanced at her, a little ashamed to speak. Fortunately, Zhou Xiaozhen didn't feel ashamed, she said: "This is what we did when we went out yesterday. Didn't the villagers say that they would sacrifice to outsiders..."
She quickly explained what happened, "In short, after we get married today, we are no longer outsiders."
"..."
After that, there was a deathly silence, because it was so bizarre that they couldn't digest it for a while. After a while, Zhang Feng looked at Lu Xun with the last gleam of hope that this was a joke, "Is she joking?"
In his gaze, Lu Xun lowered his head in shame.
Zhang Feng closed his eyes in despair, "So, now only the four of us may be sacrificed at any time?"
Even Zhou Xiaozhen felt that this was a little unkind, but she also knew that it was the limit to force Gu Jingrong to marry five that day, and there really couldn't be more. So she sincerely suggested, "It's better for you to be like us and find a local to marry."
"..."
Zhang Feng's expression twisted for a while, apparently getting married was something he had never considered in his more than 20 years of life.
Zuo Qing and Sun Yun thought about it seriously, Zuo Qing asked: "Is the son of the village chief handsome?"
"Is it important to be handsome or not?" Zhou Xiaozhen asked doubtfully, "It's not like we're really married to him."
"…"makes sense.
While they were talking, Zhao Lan and Yu Xiao were together, and she wrote down what happened just now in the memo in her hand for Yu Xiao to read. She subconsciously felt that it was best not to let others know about Yu Xiao's intermittent deafness.
Yu Xiao finished reading and nodded.
Then he got out of bed and went outside to wash up. Zuo Qing looked at Yu Xiao with adoring eyes and went out, "Why doesn't my sister Xiao talk?"
Zhou Xiaozhen: "It's my sister."
Zhao Lan got out of bed as if nothing happened and said, "Oh, she doesn't like to talk until she sleeps well."
They don't know what the setting is in this village, and the wedding time is chosen in the afternoon and dusk. Yu Xiao was dressed in bright red, and had already stood at the door.
On both sides of her are two petite women in pink dresses. Behind her are two brides in pink dresses who are over 185 in height.
With the sound of firecrackers, the villagers drove over in an ox cart tied with red silk.
Wang Yang and the others hid in the room and their eyes twitched, "Dad just died yesterday, and I'm getting married today, is that really okay?"
Gu Jingrong was wearing a red dress with a big red flower tied on his chest. He rode over on a donkey, and saw the two brides who looked like iron towers from a distance.
Immediately I wanted to die.
