death

Chapter 45
Hearing the door knock, Mai Xiaorou and I looked at the door at the same time, and the old lady's corpse seemed to be very scared, and she took the initiative to lie back in the crystal coffin.

The door opened, and two people entered.

One of them is Yao Ziqiang, and we have also met the other, the old Taoist priest we avoided when we were in the provincial capital.

It's really a narrow road for enemies.

No, it wasn't long after Yao Ziqiang called, how could that old Taoist rush from the provincial capital to this small county so quickly! ?

Seeing the mess in the room, Yao Ziqiang was taken aback for a moment, and then questioned us: "What are you messing around here? Didn't I just say that you don't need to take care of things here."

The old Taoist smiled when he saw Mai Xiaorou and me. The meaning of the smile was obvious, indicating that the two of us would not be able to run away today.

But the old Taoist didn't attack us immediately, but quickly closed the door, the sun outside was too strong, if you open the door a little longer, Yao Ziqiang's mother's ghost might suffer a little longer.

Speaking of Yao Ziqiang's mother's ghost, after seeing Yao Ziqiang's return, the expression on his face collapsed. She seemed to be very afraid of her son, but her fear also brought a kind of gentleness, which seemed to be true. As it said, it fears, hates, and loves this son of its own.

It's a pity that we haven't heard Yao Ziqiang's mother tell the story behind her, and it's hard to tell what kind of relationship he has with his son.

Facing Yao Ziqiang's questioning, I hummed and asked Yao Ziqiang: "Aren't you Yao Ziqiang a filial son? Why did you beat your mother?"

Yao Ziqiang froze for a moment, he looked at me suspiciously, then looked at the other side of the coffin, and said angrily again: "What are you doing opening my mother's crystal coffin?"

Speaking of which, Yao Ziqiang rushed directly to the crystal coffin, trying to cover the coffin.

But when he got there, he looked into the coffin and was dumbfounded. His cheeks trembled and he said angrily at us: "What did you do to my mother? How did her body become like this!"

As he said that, Yao Ziqiang picked up an incense burner in front of the coffin and threw it at us.

I was just about to reach out to block it, but I didn't expect that the old Taoist priest suddenly flashed in front of me and Mai Xiaorou, then reached out to catch the incense burner, and placed it on the altar in front of me very smoothly.

Yao Ziqiang calmed down, looked at the old Taoist priest and asked, "Master Tang, who is this?"

The old man's surname was indeed Tang, and he really belonged to the Tang family.

Mai Xiaorou and I became even more nervous. That old Taoist priest can make Mai Xiaorou feel fear, it should be very powerful, not to mention that Mai Xiaorou is now injured more and more, and it is impossible to be the opponent of that old Taoist priest.

As for me, a pure novice in Taoism, let alone.

The old Taoist looked at Yao Ziqiang, then looked at the crystal coffin and said: "You can't blame these two fellow Taoists for the situation here, they are also doing it for your own good, you wait outside the door first, I and the two A fellow Taoist has something to say!"

Yao Ziqiang was taken aback for a moment, then turned around obediently and left.

After Yao Ziqiang left, I said directly to the old Taoist priest, "You guys from the Tang family came here really fast."

The old Taoist said: "It's not that I came quickly, but that I was in this small county, and I followed you two trails."

Hearing what the old Taoist said, Mai Xiaorou and I became vigilant at the same time.

I took a closer look at the old Taoist priest. His Taoist robe was dirty and a little torn. He was much more embarrassed than when we met him in the provincial capital. He seemed to have just had a fight with someone.

The old Taoist continued: "You two don't need to be nervous, the ghost of Yang Ji's house is indeed raised by me. When you two just sent my ghost away, I was really angry, so angry that I wanted to kill you, but I have changed my mind now, not only will I not kill you, but I will also protect your safety."

Mai Xiaorou and I were stunned for a moment, and I subconsciously asked the old Taoist why.

He grinned and said, "Why? One of you is a corpse, and the other is a 'scourge'. Keeping you in this avenue will sooner or later turn this spiritual world upside down, and that's why I don't kill you all." reason."

Before I could talk to Mai Xiaorou, the old Taoist continued: "And I also heard about the 36 strange cases you took over. Someone bet on you being able to control the scourge on your body, so I will bet on you to control it." No, I want to bet against that person! I want to bet against the sky! Hahaha..."

While the old Taoist was talking, he actually became excited there. I really don't know where his excitement is.

He looks like a lunatic, I think it is more appropriate to call him an old lunatic than an old Taoist priest.

He smiled there for a while, and then continued: "This is your case, I will not interfere, I am here just to tell you, I will not make things difficult for you, that's it, well, I can't be in this county Stay longer, there is always an inexplicable pressure here, I am not suitable to stay here, goodbye, we will meet again when we have a chance."

After finishing speaking, the old lunatic turned around, opened the door and left Yao's villa.

Not long after he went out, Yao Ziqiang came in dejectedly. He looked at us, then at the crystal coffin and said, "Master Tang said that this matter will be handled by you. If you want to know anything, just ask me."

I looked at the ghost of the old lady in front of the altar, then at Yao Ziqiang, and asked him, "Why did you beat your mother?"

Hearing my question, Yao Ziqiang's body trembled. He wanted to be angry, but he was controlling his anger.

After more than ten seconds, he said slowly: "Sometimes, another me will appear in my mind. When I can't control him, I will beat my mother!"

I asked him under what circumstances he would lose control.

Yao Ziqiang said: "When she mentions my bastard father, I will get angry for no reason, and I want to beat her for no reason!"

Yao Ziqiang suddenly became irritable again. Mai Xiaorou quickly squeezed a finger beside him, and then directly tapped Yao Ziqiang's forehead. Yao Ziqiang's expression also slowly eased.

Mai Xiaorou said that what she just used was a meditation spell, a small technique.

I just nodded my head, she was already injured, if I use any big way rashly, I'm afraid it will aggravate her injury.

After Yao Ziqiang regained his composure, I said, "Can I tell you your story?"

Yao Ziqiang was stunned for a while, then nodded and said, "Yes! I was born in a remote village. As long as I can remember, my bastard father beat my mother every day, and me, he was drunk, and beat us when he was drunk. , At that time, our family was not well off, if we couldn’t drink alcohol, we would be beaten if we were addicted to alcohol.”

"I was thinking at the time, if such a person drank to death one day, that would be the best. Really, I was thinking every day at that time, let him drink to death!"

"I cursed him again and again in my heart."

"But my mother never knew how to resist. She only knew how to be submissive. Although she always protected me, the humbleness she showed in front of that bastard made me very angry. Sometimes, I wanted to beat her!"

"I want to hit her, not because I don't love her, but because I hate her for being too cowardly!"

"That bastard drank a lot. Sure enough, when I graduated from elementary school, he drank his stomach through drinking, and died because he was not sent to the doctor in time."

"That day my mother actually cried, so a bastard died, she actually cried?"

"I didn't cry, I ran to the top of the mountain and laughed. I've never been so happy as that day."

"Later, my mother brought me up alone, sent me to the best junior high school and high school in the county, and then provided for me to go to college. Really, in my heart, I am really grateful to my mother. I want to let She had a good time."

"So I worked hard, worked hard to make money, and my opportunities were good, and I gradually got the career I am today."

"But I don't know what happened recently. My mother always mentioned my bastard father in front of me, and said that I would be buried with that bastard after death, saying that fallen leaves return to their roots."

"As soon as I heard her say these words, I felt uncomfortable and couldn't help being angry. Thinking of the suffering I suffered as a child, I couldn't control myself. When I was really angry, I didn't even know what I was doing."

"Every time I beat my mother, I regret it very much. I will buy her good nutrition. I will kneel down and beg my mother to forgive me, but once I get angry, I will lose control again."

"I really didn't hit my mother on purpose, I really love her, really, really, really, really love her!"

Hearing Yao Ziqiang say this, my mood also became complicated.

Yao Ziqiang's mother Guiwu suddenly said at this time: "Son, mother knows your suffering and knows that you can't help yourself, but I have only been such a man in my life. Although he is a bastard, he is my husband after all. There must always be a place to go, I don't want to stay alone in this city, I want to find a companion, and before I die, I have been dreaming that your father confessed to me and said sorry to me, he begged Let me go back, I really miss him a little bit, miss my first man!"

Yao Ziqiang's mother suddenly spoke, Yao Ziqiang was also stunned, obviously he heard the voice too.

After hearing what his mother said, Yao Ziqiang was not irritable, but couldn't help crying.

Yao Ziqiang's mother continued: "We are a family. If he knows his mistake, we will forgive him and give him a chance. As a family, there is nothing we can't talk about. Son, you have to remember, be big-hearted and tolerant. Otherwise, I will never be able to let go of the past in this life, and I will never be truly happy in this life, Mom loves you!"

Hearing the last few words, Yao Ziqiang burst into tears!
Then he said: "Mother, I promise you, I will send you to the countryside for burial, and bury you with him, I promise you."

I slowly put away the soul restraining technique, but Yao Ziqiang's mother's ghost did not dissipate, but returned to the crystal coffin.

I know that it is impossible for her soul to dissipate before she is buried. It seems that we are going to follow them to Yao Ziqiang's hometown, and we only hope that there will be no more accidents there.

But then again, Yao Ziqiang's mother said that she dreamed of her husband before she was alive, could it be that man's ghost really found her?

All of this will be clear when we get to Yao Ziqiang's hometown, and whether Yao Ziqiang is a double soul person, we also have to find out, the double soul person is a different kind after all!
