snake coffin

Chapter 150 Blood Lice
Mo Xiu is obviously going to start looking for the coffin-making place aggressively, and may even use magic. My being here will definitely affect him.

Since he doesn't want me to see him, there's no use staying here.

So I didn't stay anymore, but went directly to Aunt Liu's powder shop.

Aunt Liu was packing the two fish in the kitchen. When she saw me coming, she smiled at me: "Xiao Yazi is quite good at getting things done, and he even knows how to give two fish as a gift. Have you eaten?"

She will stand in the room now, the light is dim, her hair looks like a black ball, and she can't see anything.

I smiled at her: "I've eaten."

"How are you doing recently?" Aunt Liu brought me a bottle of soy milk, pried off the cap, and handed it to me, "This matter in Chenjiacun is settled, and your parents can come back."

"Then how will you tell them..." Aunt Liu pointed to the wall next to her, and said with a low smile, "What does your boyfriend do?"

She suddenly came closer, and I could see something smaller than a louse in the black hair, slowly worming its way inside.

The hand that reached out to catch the soy milk was raised upwards, trying to touch it, but it immediately disappeared into the hair.

"Are you in contact with my parents?" I took back my hand and took the soy milk: "No one will come to make trouble. There is no need for them to hide."

"How can you contact me? Alas, I should be back as soon as I receive the news. You just want to take advantage of the fact that it's still early to see if you can start school in September and repeat directly. You can take the exam again next year." Aunt Liu sat at the table, thinking deeply. nod.

The dim light fell on her, and I realized that those thin things seemed to be crawling in from the back of the house on a string.

Those things looked like blood-sucking lice, and their stomachs were bulging like a ball of bright red blood.

Climb out from the back of the house, along the ground, slowly climb up from the legs to Aunt Liu's head.

I followed the blood lice into the room and said solemnly, "Should I go to the bathroom?"

"Go on, do you know where it is?" Aunt Liu happened to have someone come to eat some noodles, and said to me: "The light is broken, just turn on the light in the aisle outside. People come every day, and it breaks again within a few days of repairing it." "

"I know." I got up and walked back.

Aunt Liu's store is the same as mine, built by her own family.

Her husband seems to be gone, and she has a son and a daughter who are all away from home. She is the only one running this pink shop at home. She is busy from morning to night, but the business is quite good.

I vaguely heard that she pays back his son's family every year, and she pays for buying a house and a car.

As soon as I turned the front, it turned a little black when I got to the back.

I took out my phone and took a picture. The toilet was built on the innermost floor, but those blood lice crawled in from the outside.

I built a house by myself, leaving a small yard at the back, which is actually not wide, just about two meters wide, and used to pile up sundries.

My dad built a wine cellar in my house, and a utility room in the back of my fat aunt’s house.

I followed the blood lice all the way to the door of the utility room, which was not locked.

It opened with a slight push, and there were only a few large kimchi jars inside, as well as some paper towels used in the store, oil bottles and the like.

But those blood lice crawled out of a large vat in the corner of the utility room. I took a picture with my mobile phone. The vat didn't seem to be compacted, but was covered with a wooden board.

There was also a faint sound of water, as if something was struggling and swimming inside.

Just as I was about to walk over, I felt a tightness on my shoulders, which made my whole body tremble with fright, and I instinctively took out the razor.

But as soon as I turned around, I saw Aunt Liu rubbing her hands and looking at me: "What's the matter? It smells like kimchi? Soaked capers and chili, can I bring you some? It tastes the best!"

"You said your nose is still so sharp." Aunt Liu wiped her hands on her apron and opened a packing box: "It's not a valuable thing. You can carry a few more boxes back later, and I'll pick up two more boxes. If you give Xiao Yazi a box of good beef, you can't eat other people's fish in vain."

I took a photo of the big vat in the corner with my mobile phone: "Is there any kimchi in there?"

"It was just an empty tank. It used to hold water, but the big tank had a crack. It was a pity to lose it, so I just left it there. I thought it would be good to cover it with cement when I have the opportunity to use it to raise fish in the future." Aunt Liu quickly grabbed the kimchi from the jar.

I lowered the light of my mobile phone slightly, and I saw those blood lice seemed to have sucked a stomach full of blood, and crawled from the big vat to the soles of Aunt Liu's feet.

While Aunt Liu was still catching kimchi, I took a walk inside, and those blood lice crawled out from the breach in the vat.

The tank was covered with dust and had not been used for who knows how long.

That piece of wood was just an ordinary board. I touched it and made sure there was nothing wrong with it, so I opened it violently.

At the moment when the tank was opened, there seemed to be the sound of some big fish swimming away in the water.

But the light from the mobile phone shone into the tank, but there was nothing. The light was reflected in the empty tank, and there were no fish, not even a drop of water.

"Long Ling, do you want this vat?" Aunt Liu has filled the kimchi now, looked at me and said, "Are you going to use it to make snake wine? This vat is broken, why don't you wait for the market someday, and someone will give you the vat If so, I'll buy you two."

I looked at the empty tank and the blood lice crawling on Aunt Liu's body, like moving ants, in an endless stream.

But there was nothing in the tank, where did the blood lice come from?
"Long Ling?" Aunt Liu called me again, and said with a deep smile, "Have you never seen a big water tank?"

"I've seen it." I smiled and covered the wooden board: "I remember when I was a child, my dad also used a big vat to make snake wine, and the sound of the snake soaking in the vat scared me to tears. "

"Yes." Aunt Liu covered the kimchi jar and glared at me: "It's just that your father feels sorry for you. He immediately buried the jar behind your house. If it were someone else's house, he wouldn't care about you."

"So everyone knows that you are very delicate." Aunt Liu waved to me: "Okay, okay. The dust is heavy, so don't choke the eldest lady like you."

But I held my phone and looked at Aunt Liu: "Did my dad bury that tank in the backyard?"

"It was when you were six or seven years old. You heard the sound of snakes in the vat and cried every day. Your father buried the vat. There was also a big vat of wine. It's a pity." Aunt Liu laughed. .

He said to me: "I don't know if the wine will go away. Otherwise, if you dig it out now, you might be able to drink this old snake wine."

But I felt that the blood all over my body was boiling.

I thanked Aunt Liu, asked her to put away the kimchi first, and went directly to my backyard.

The back is not wide, and it has been frozen solid with cement, so there are no traces of buried jars.

The door lock of the small wine cellar was picked open, and there was nothing inside, a few old glass bottles fell on the ground.

I took a photo with my phone, but still found nothing.

Just as I was about to go out, I felt the light at the door dim, which scared me and made me tense up all over again.

"What are you looking for?" Mo Xiu stood at the door and said in a deep voice, "Are you so scared?"

I hurriedly came out with my mobile phone, and told Mo Xiu what I found at Aunt Liu's place just now.

Looking at the back: "Can you find where a vat is buried below?"

I don’t know why, but since I saw the tank at Aunt Liu’s house, I had a vague feeling that there might be something wrong with the tank buried in my backyard.

Mo Xiu turned around and looked: "Is there something buried under here?"

I nodded: "Aunt Liu said that a big water tank was buried."

As he spoke, he looked at Mo Xiu in a blink of an eye: "Did you find it?"

Mo Xiu shook his head and waved his hand for me to step aside.

Shen looked at the cement floor in the backyard. I heard a faint sound of swimming, but I didn't see anything.

But after a while, Mo Xiu's eyes seemed to shrink, and the cement floor cracked.

Mo Xiu took a deep breath and stepped back: "Down here."

I suddenly felt bad, and Shen looked at Mo Xiu: "Is that the coffin-making place?"

Mo Xiu nodded: "It should be."

I turned my head and looked at Aunt Liu: "Will it affect Aunt Liu?"

It is also a two-cylinder tank, and Aunt Liu seems to be living on those blood-sucking lice. Once it is broken, she is afraid that something will happen to Aunt Liu.

"Don't worry, it's something your parents made. It's very stable." Mo Xiu squatted down and stretched out his hand. With a flash of his finger, an ice edge appeared in his hand.

Slowly peeling away the cracked cement, I saw a layer of rusty iron underneath, which seemed to have some patterns carved on it.

But just when the iron was exposed, a sharp pain came from the scales on my collarbone.

This time it was different from the previous stinging pain, it was like being scalded by boiling water, and the entire scales were burning like pain.

Mo Xiu also seemed to snort, and the ice edge he held in his hand suddenly turned into water and fell on the iron plate. With a "sizzling" sound, it turned into water vapor and disappeared.
