Copper Coins Chapter 21: Blind Guazi (4)
·
What's the surprise?
Xue Xian followed the prestige and saw that Lu Erqi, who was standing on the side of the boat, didn't know what he saw. He staggered backwards in shock and fell to the ground. He slapped the boat on the board, and withdrew sharply with an "Ow" scream. But it was too late, his right palm had already been cut open, and blood was pouring out.
"What's wrong?" Jiang Shining grabbed his wrist and pressed his thumb on the skin upstream of the wound. "What was it cut by?"
"Iron." Lu Twenqi shivered from the cold of his fingers, and subconsciously drew his hand backwards.
On the boat deck next to where he fell, an iron-like thing happened to be stuck in the wood grain cracks on the surface of the boat, and there was a layer of red blood on it. It was obviously the culprit. .
Jiang Shining glanced left and right, and picked up the jug that the boatman had left here.
"It hurts a little bit, bear with it." He said, unscrewed the spout, and poured the wine on Lu Tianqi's palm without any hesitation.
"Murder, you—" Lu Twenqi was about not ready, and his voice was piercing, "It hurts, it hurts! It's so hot! Hiss—huh—"
"What a mourning cry, hold on tight." Jiang Shining lived in the hospital since he was a child. He was used to seeing people crying about their father and mother, and seemed very calm.
It was extremely cold today, and the snow and fog had not yet dispersed. The wine quickly cooled down when I poured it on my hands, and the blood no longer gushed out. Lu Tianqi was still gasping for breath, spreading his palms, frowning with a look of bitterness and hatred.
Jiang Shining picked up some more water to help him clean the blood around the wound, and then shook the water droplets off his hands and nestled to one side.
The bloodstains were gone, and the lines on Lu Twenqi's palm were clearly visible. Xuan Min glanced at it, frowned slightly, and simply walked over and pinched his wrist bone and looked down for a moment.
Lu Twenqi couldn't help but snorted, and said sternly: "Another one who likes to stare at people's palm prints."
"What is another, and who else?"
Xue Xian answered casually. He hadn't noticed it at first, thinking that Xuan Min was just looking at this kid's wound. Hearing this, he leaned over to the mouth of the bag and stared at Lu Tianqi's palm print, and was stunned by this look.
"Lu Shijiu chanting." Twenty-seven, except when he was in a panic, called "Nineteen", he kept shouting with his first and last name the rest of the time.
"Staring... at the palm print?" Jiang Shining couldn't help but raised his head. According to Xue Xian, that Lu Shijiu was blind, how could he still stare? Speaking of which, he felt strange before that a blind man went to Jiangxin Island by himself, what should he do when he got on the island? Are you touching all the way?
Lu Twenqi heard his emphasis on the word "staring", and curled his lips: "For ordinary people, he is indeed blind, but he can walk by himself, but only very slowly. Because he To be able to 'see' some things that ordinary people can't see, in his own words, it's like a kind of temperament, like talking nonsense, I can't understand it anyway."
After he finished speaking, he asked Xuanmin again: "What's wrong with my palm lines? Every once in a while, he would drag my hand to 'look' for a while, while looking at the lines and touching the lines. I can't take it anymore. When I asked him, he said it was nothing, it was a palmistry with a long life, but it was a little hard to live when I was a teenager, and he wanted to see what kind of suffering I could become."
Jiang Shining: "..." This brother is also absolutely amazing.
But -- longevity?
Xue Xian stared at the palm print, feeling that he simply didn't understand the meaning of "longevity"!
This Lu Twenty-seven is clearly a young man who died of a short life. Among the three patterns of heaven, earth and human beings, the earth pattern that refers to the number of lifespans is surprisingly short, and it stops abruptly before reaching the middle palace. He silently raised his head and stared at Twenty Seven's face again.
I hadn't noticed it before, but after looking carefully, I found out that Lu Twenty-seven days has collapsed, his eyes are scattered, and he is always a little restless.
So how did Lu Nineteen see longevity?
However, this kind of fate is not always easy to say face to face.
Xue Xian turned his head silently and looked up at the bald donkey. This bald donkey has a lot of previous records, and he can't speak human language. If the words are not shocking and continue to say "You will live soon", this bear child may be able to scare him away.
Who knows that the bald donkey seems to have suddenly become enlightened, and he actually learned to be euphemistic. He first asked: "Are you fifteen this year?"
Lu Twenty-seven: "Yeah."
Xuan Min nodded, "There is a disaster this year, so be careful when you go out."
Xue Xian glanced at the sky silently, thinking that today is the sun coming out from the west? Or did the bald donkey take the wrong medicine?
Lu Twenty-Seven withdrew his hand, "Okay, I know, Lu Nineteen said the same."
"Right! What were you shouting just now?" Xue Xian asked.
I was interrupted by Lu Twenqi's **** hand, and I almost forgot what I wanted to ask.
"No..." the arrogant boy snorted, "I was standing on the side of the boat just now, and I suddenly saw a black mass rubbed under the boat, thinking it was hair. But it should be just water plants, if it is hair, that person should also be Floating on the river, it shouldn't be so half-deeply decorated."
Xue Xian said: "You all know this, have you seen it?"
"I've seen it." Lu Tianqi said, "How can people who live by the river have not seen these things? There are also special corpse hunters on the river. This year, a lot of fish have been caught. In autumn and winter alone, I will I've seen it no less than five times."
Jiang Shining frowned as he listened, almost seasick.
The snow and fog on the river are thick, and the vastness is white for thousands of miles.
But the tomb island, like a steamed bun, gradually became clearer and bigger in the fog.
Xuan Min stood at the bow of the boat, still holding a reed pole in one hand to control the direction, while Xue Xian supported his chin, his eyes were wandering on the misty river, and he was a little uneasy.
I don't know if it was his delusion or not, but he always felt that his precious golden pearl had come alive since it fell into the bald donkey's secret bag. Although he still couldn't clearly feel the connection between Jin Zhu and himself, there was always a vague feeling lingering around him.
As if someone was about to pat you, when his fingertips were within an inch of you, you could detect something strange, albeit so faint it was almost non-existent.
He does not reject such influence.
If this bald donkey really has the ability to let him establish a connection with the original body in advance, he can thank the eight generations of this bald donkey's ancestors sincerely.
Just how can this process be made faster?
Xue Xian was a little worried. He had no hope at first. Now that he had some hope, he suddenly became impatient. After all, the body of this paper is really fragile. Dignified face and his extraordinary bearing.
Thinking about this evil for a moment, he suddenly retracted his pocket. He squirmed restlessly in the bag for a while, rubbed himself against the gold beads at the bottom of the bag, and then opened his body to wrap the gold beads.
After all, this white linen monk's robe is a little thin, and the inner layer of the hidden pocket is directly attached to Xuan Min's waist and abdomen. This evil barrier is moving around, and he can naturally feel it.
He turned the reed pole, frowned and asked, "Why don't you always learn to stay calm, what are you tossing about?"
Xue Xian's voice was muffled under the fabric, and there was some urgency: "Rock your boat, what do I do? I'm hatching eggs, don't talk to me, it's annoying."
Xuan Min: "..."
Fortunately, he probably felt a little embarrassed, and his voice was very low, and no one except Xuan Min heard it, otherwise Jiang Shining would definitely make a few words.
Xuan Min was so shocked by his words "hatching eggs" that he didn't pay attention to the river for a moment.
During the moment he was distracted, another black mass passed under the boat... or more precisely, the boat passed over the black mass.
Lu Twenqi, who was lying on the side of the boat, glanced at it. Because of the speed, the black color flashed by, and he didn't see it too clearly. At first glance, it still looks like hair, but I don't see the white face, nor the body. So Lu Twenqi stroked the goosebumps on his arms and felt a little relieved.
Not long after, the bow of the boat hit the mud and stone and stopped.
"It's here." As soon as the boat stopped, Lu Twenqi even climbed and ran to the shore. He pointed to another dark shadow not far away and said, "Did you see that, that's Old Man Liu's boat, and he was the one who brought Lu Shijiu."
This cemetery island is surrounded by wild forests, surrounded by snow and fog. At a glance, the brown and black branches are shadowed, and it is a good place to be haunted.
When Xuan Min stepped on this grave head island, a gust of wind seemed to blow from the wild woods.
ding ding dong ---
The string of copper coins hanging around his waist suddenly moved, making two soft knocks.
"What's the situation?" Xue Xian came out to change his breath, "What did you say just now? Why can't you hear it?"
"I didn't speak, what did you hear?" Xuan Min frowned at him, this evil barrier was naturally sharp, and could always sense something strange first.
Xue Xian said oddly: "Just when you landed, I was hatching my golden beads, and I heard you suddenly read a series of strange words, like scriptures, and I couldn't understand. You Are you sure you didn't speak? Then what did I hear, it does sound like yours—"
He said halfway through, paused a little, then added dryly: "It just sounds a little far..."
