Chapter 18 The Drunken Beauty of Xiangxi (18)
"Oh? Do you want to invite me over?"
Miao Fangfei and the others took the initiative to find him, and Wei Xun's first reaction was that he scared Xu Chen to death. Xu Chen fainting just after looking at him in the corpse courtyard was so exaggerated that Wei Xun was so shocked that he even forgot to find someone to do laundry.
"Yes, everyone is looking forward to your arrival."
Miao Fangfei considered it carefully and smiled cautiously: "Director B, you have worked hard along the way. Everyone wants to take a photo with you."
There is also a trick to asking a tour guide to go there. Because of the special status of tour guides, the hotel does not allow tour guides to be too helpful to tourists. If Miao Fangfei asked Bingjiu to come over and deal with the resentment on the coffin, Bingjiu would receive a warning from the hotel the next moment.
But if you want to take a photo with the tour guide and ask him to come over, that’s no problem. This is what seasoned travelers have learned from their journeys.
Facing Bingjiu again, Miao Fangfei was not rude because of Bingjiu's "fancy" for her in the past. On the contrary, she was more cautious and respectful - Miao Fangfei was very smart and vaguely guessed that Xu Chen's fainting was not caused by Because I saw the core of resentment, but because of Bingjiu!
How much power and mystery does Bingjiu hide to make Xu Chen faint at a glance!
Thinking of this, Miao Fangfei became more submissive and a little more worried in her heart. She was not sure that she would really invite Bingjiu over, and Miao Fangfei was even prepared to be rejected. If Bingjiu refuses——
"OK."
Wei Xun readily agreed, then he pretended to be worried, glanced at his tattered sleeves, and said in a long voice: "What a pity, I'm not very photogenic in my current state."
Unexpectedly, after hearing what he said, Miao Fangfei asked in confusion: "Didn't Lin Xi...I'm sorry, I overstepped."
Yes, if you leave the laundry to him, Lin Xi will definitely be happy and willing to complete it. But Wei Xun didn't want to risk being pounced on by Lin Xi every time. What if Lin Xi succeeded and really pounced on him!
His innocence!
"I see."
Seeing Bingjiu's lips curling up slightly and smiling without saying a word, Miao Fangfei suddenly understood and nodded solemnly: "You will be satisfied. Please come with me first. We are all waiting for your photo."
What do you unserstand?
Wei Xun was a little confused and walked towards the main room with Miao Fangfei. As soon as he arrived, he saw the passengers standing in two rows, like welcome boys. They all breathed a sigh of relief after seeing him arrive.
"Let's go, let's take pictures."
A short man with a Polaroid hanging on his chest stuttered, not daring to make eye contact with Wei Xun, and slithered into the main room like a little mouse.
"Yu Hehui is right, let's go inside and shoot."
Shi Tao opened his eyes and lied: "After all, it is an intangible cultural heritage...historic site, which makes it more interesting when photographed."
As soon as Wei Xun entered the room, he understood why they had bothered to invite him over. He could feel a cold layer of resentment covering the coffins in the house, but when he entered the house, all those resentments ran away in a flash.
Because Wei Xun still had Pingping's blood-hate dagger in his pocket.
The resentment of the corpse group was as afraid of Pingping's resentment as if a mouse had seen a cat.
Wei Xun became interested and planned to go back and study the dagger that was said to contain evil spirits. The passengers here have quickly formed two rows according to their size, crowding Bingjiu into the middle. Everyone has a fake, business-like smile on their face.
"Eggplant, eggplant!"
With a click, the photo came out of the Polaroid. Yu Hehui held the photo with trembling hands and looked at it, his expression immediately relaxed.
After Miao Fangfei repeatedly promised that she would immediately make arrangements for Bingjiu and send Bingjiu away with great effort, the passengers immediately gathered around Yu Hehui to look at the photos.
His Polaroid can take supernatural photos. At this moment, you can clearly see in the photo that the black resentment that originally covered the coffins has disappeared, and there is only a light, dark red resentment covering the eight coffins.
Miao Fangfei and others immediately went to look at the other four coffins. Sure enough, the corpses in the coffins showed their original shape. They were the corpses in the courtyard that had been soaked in rain and turned white!
Afraid of another change, they did not touch the rotting corpse with their own hands, but carried the corpse and coffin out. Miao Fangfei and Zhao Hongtu carefully used the bamboo poles they found to turn over the corpses. Miao Fangfei, who was sharp-eyed, discovered that all the corpses were missing their middle fingers.
Is it a coincidence or...
"I didn't expect Bingjiu to be so strong."
Zhao Hongtu's voice was low and he clenched his fists unwillingly. Bingjiu just stood in a circle and drove away the resentment of the corpses. Not only that, he also left behind his own 'breath', making the corpses resentful and afraid to come closer.
Is the gap between them really that big?
"He's our tour guide."
Miao Fangfei said calmly: "Let's go and get rid of the body."
"Team Miao, why did you invite Director C here?"
Over there, Wang Pengpeng came up to us and asked his worries on behalf of everyone: "This is a major event that benefits our entire brigade, and we won't let you pay for it alone."
No one refuted Wang Pengpai's words. Obviously, after this cooperation, the feelings of everyone in the brigade became slightly better.
"nothing."
Miao Fangfei also breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "As you know, Bingjiu has a mysophobia. He just wants someone to wash and sew his clothes."
She lowered her eyes, as if she was a little sad, and pretended not to care: "Everyone, please continue, we have to finish work before nine o'clock. I will speed up, and I will go when the time comes. Hongtu, you stay here to protect everyone - —”
"Captain Miao, let me go."
Zhao Hongtu suddenly interrupted, turned his head, and said coolly: "I'm almost done, you, you are stronger, stay here for safety."
At first, Zhao Hongtu was dissatisfied with Miao Fangfei. Her relationship with Bingjiu made Zhao Hongtu disdainful. But after several times, Miao Fangfei's decisiveness and wisdom made Zhao Hongtu gradually change his view of her.
Whether it was Miao Fangfei who was the first to kneel down or whether she actually invited Bingjiu over and solved the brigade's problems, she was worthy of the title of captain! Young people have a clear distinction between love and hate, and Zhao Hongtu feels that Miao Fangfei is a good captain.
She succumbed to Bingjiu, it must have been forced by Bingjiu!
What touched Zhao Hongtu the most was that he had misunderstood her so much before, but Captain Miao still recognized him. See, she specifically named him to stay and protect her, which was a sign of her trust in him.
A scholar dies for a confidant!
In this case, he is a man, how can he let Miao Fangfei go to Bingjiu's wolf den again!
Miao Fangfei gave in several times, but Zhao Hongtu was resolute and promised that he would never use any tricks and would definitely clean Bingjiu's clothes and sew them neatly - his family was poor and he had experience in sewing and mending.
Then the passengers wasted no time and quickly began to deal with the body in the coffin. Dot it with cinnabar, wrap it with Chenzhou talisman, and wrap it with colorful cloth.
Zhao Hongtu and Miao Fangfei were the fastest to finish. The two looked at each other. Zhao Hongtu nodded solemnly to Miao Fangfei, feeling quite sympathetic to each other. When he turned around and walked towards the rain outside, Zhao Hongtu felt a bit tragic.
The wind rustles and the water becomes cold. When the strong men leave...that's not right.
Bingjiu clearly prefers men. He seems to be more dangerous than Miao Fangfei?
Zhao Hongtu turned around hesitantly and looked at Miao Fangfei. But he saw her standing guard at the door with a worried look on her face. Seeing Zhao Hongtu stop, Miao Fangfei was startled and was about to come to him without hesitation.
No! A word from a gentleman is like a whip to the horse!
Zhao Hongtu strengthened his belief again, raised his hand to stop Miao Fangfei, and walked quickly towards Bingjiu.
Finally, Zhao Hongtu was coaxed over.
Miao Fangfei breathed a sigh of relief, turned around with a smile, and met Hou Feihu's helpless gaze.
Zhao Hongtu couldn't understand her little trick, but Hou Feihu could. But he, who had the best relationship with Zhao Hongtu, did not stop him.
Miao Fangfei felt that she should make it clear to him.
"Director Bing holds a grudge. Hongtu pointed an arrow at him before, and he won't forget it."
Miao Fangfei explained: "It is better to solve it now than to have problems on the road."
It was better to mend Bingjiu's clothes and wash them than to be killed quietly.
Furthermore, Miao Fangfei felt that Bingjiu looked down on Zhao Hongtu. In other words, since Lin Xi took the initiative to show her kindness and told her Bingjiu's true appearance score, Miao Fangfei felt that no one in the entire brigade was worthy of Bingjiu.
"Captain Miao, I know."
Hou Feihu whispered, with a helpless smile: "Xiao Tu's temperament needs to be tempered. It's too tough, and you have to be tempered during the journey."
He sighed, seeming a little disappointed. In this journey, no one will wait patiently for you to grow. Zhao Hongtu will die sooner or later if he continues like this.
It was raining outside, and the sky was getting darker and darker. At eight o'clock in the evening, it was completely dark, as thick as broken ink. As Hou Feihu waited anxiously, Zhao Hongtu finally returned. Although the child's face was not very good-looking, he was not injured at all.
A few people ate some of the energy bars and compressed biscuits they brought with them to replenish their energy, packed their bags, and then stood in front of their own bodies with solemn expressions.
"Senior, Fatty, let me take you back home. You have a lot. Please cooperate with me later. Please."
Miao Fangfei heard the fat man mumbling, and several other people were either talking to themselves or talking to the corpse, all of them acting like madmen.
Only in this way can I barely suppress the fear in my heart.
Late at night, walking on mountain roads, chasing corpses.
The real danger is about to come. This difficult test will definitely kill people.
I don’t know how many people will be left in their small group of eight this time.
"It's half past eight."
Someone whispered, and the next moment, footsteps were heard from outside the door, approaching from far away.
Like the devil's footsteps, stepping on people's hearts step by step.
"Everyone is here?"
The tour guide Bingjiu came, and seeing the bronze ghost mask that covered his face somehow made the tourists feel at ease.
It is said that ghosts are also afraid of evil people.
I hope Bingjiu is so evil that he is even afraid of ghosts.
"Now let's start the roll call."
After Wei Xun finished taking the roll call according to the rules, he looked at the time and said, "It's eight forty. Let's start early. If we travel during the wrong times, we won't bump into others."
Who else could we run into while chasing corpses in the middle of the night?
Miao Fangfei and the others were unable to complain, but when they thought about it, their hearts suddenly became awe-inspiring.
Bingjiu's words seemed to be full of profound meaning.
Of course, driving corpses in the middle of the night won't bump into anyone. What they will bump into is...
Wei Xun, who invigorated the atmosphere and felt that he was a good tour guide, waved the tour guide flag. The bright red flag naturally glowed in the dark night, like a beacon, illuminating the road in the dark night.
"Let's go."
The tour guide gave the order, and all the tourists felt nervous. They took out their small gongs and struck them together.
Boom!
"rise--"
Kaka.
Click.
There was a sound of gongs, and the body that had been lying in the coffin stood up unsteadily. Their bodies were stiff and they stood quietly in the coffin. Their bodies were smeared with cinnabar and wrapped with talisman paper and ribbons, but they didn't look funny. Time left mottled scars on their bodies.
After being trapped for hundreds of years, today, they can finally return to their homeland.
Boom!
The gong sounded, and the zombies jumped out of the coffin. The passengers quickly put hats on the corpses, and then struck the gong again.
Boom——
Zombies followed each passenger. The arms were stretched across each person's shoulders. A cold chill came from behind, making the blood all over the body almost freeze. This was a real corpse. Not everyone could bear the fear of a corpse behind them!
But they can only do this. After all, the passengers are not real corpse exorcists and cannot recite incantations. They can only let the stiff arms of the corpse rest on their shoulders and control the advancement of the corpse by beating the gong.
Miao Fangfei was in front, Zhao Hongtu was in the rear, Hou Feihu was carrying Xu Chen, who was exhausted, and stood in the middle of the team. The others stood according to their strength, and one by one, they beat the gong and walked out of the main room with the body.
The biting cold rain poured down on your head. It was obviously summer, but the cold made you shiver all over. Miao Fangfei followed Bingjiu, took a step forward, and struck the gong. Gradually, the entire team moved in unison, and the gongs sounded at the same time.
"Bang——"
"The sky is spirited, the earth is spirited, corpses are being driven out in Xiangxi, strangers are avoiding -"
Amidst the sound of gongs and long tunes, the corpse exorcism team left the main room and walked towards the gate of Yizhuang.
This section of the road must pass through a small courtyard filled with corpses!
Everyone was worried and nervous. Fortunately, there was no danger in the end. They successfully passed through the courtyard and walked to the gate of Yizhuang.
"Bang!"
At this moment, a gong sounded suddenly, disrupting the rhythm and showing a bit of panic! Miao Fangfei's heart tightened. Soon, Lin Xi, who was walking behind her, passed a message with a trembling voice.
Using this kind of team to drive away corpses will inevitably lead to inconvenience in communication. They had discussed it before setting off, and if anyone noticed something strange, they would sound the gong to warn others, and spread the news along the way to let others know.
"Zhao Hongtu, say, say."
Lin Xi's voice trembled: "He said that the group of corpses from Xiaolongyizhuang are following."
"Right behind us!"
really.
Miao Fangfei closed her eyes. When she opened them again, her eyes were firm and she whispered, "Don't look back."
Move forward and don't look back!
