    Chapter 86 Real River God

    Lin Qiushi and Gu Longming sat in the hall and listened to a story about Yujiayuan.

    There are hostess in the story, Yu Caizhe, who is used to sacrifice, and many plots they have not guess.

    After the young man Yu Caizhe's sacrifice was sacrificed, the endless heavy rain stopped, as if the river god in the river was really moved by the sacrifice. People in the small town are ecstatic, as if they are in the festival, they usually position the birthday of the river gods. In order to celebrate, they are still full of red lanterns on the street.

    However, before a few days, an accident appeared in the city.

    The small town began to die, and the dead portrait was eaten by something, and even the bones were not left. They would only leave some hair and nails on the ground.

    At first, everyone thought it was a beast mixed in the city, but soon this speculation was overthrown, because there was no beast that could be so silent for people to eat. The mystery of death was quickly unlocked. Eating the people in the city was not a living thing at all. Instead, the cheeks were swollen by blisters, and the small ghosts in the river with a sharp mouth.

    Everyone was panicked for a while. No one had seen such things, and no one knew how to deal with them.

    When everyone was dazzling, the hostess of the family stood out. She said that her son who was used to sacrifice gave her a dream and told her how to solve it.

    Everyone was happy, and heard the hostess of the house saying a solution. She said: "Only the oil lamps made by people can stop the ghost."

    People in the city are silent. Although the lights made by human oil can prevent those things, where do you come from?

    The hostess was not anxious, just waiting quietly.

    Soon, her purpose was achieved. Someone who could not stand the fear began to do the same.

    "It was them, they proposed to sacrifice the river god with children." The crowd began to have such a sound and intensified.

    In the end, those who proposed to be used for the little boy's sacrifice were regarded as the first batch of victims.

    They were ruthlessly killed, and the hostess took a gentle expression to make a cup of oil lamps with their bodies.

    The oil lamp was distributed in the hands of the residents, so no one died in the hands of the ghost.

    The residents thought that things were solved like this, until the next day of the birthday, the heaven began to continue the continuous rain.

    The residents fell into panic again, while the hostess told them the solution.

    "Need a new river god." She said, "We need a new river god." She applied a little finger with red Kou Dan, and then clicked to a child who was still ignorant in the arms of his mother, smiled, "Look at it. Look, this cute child, you are very suitable as the new river god. "

    The child's mother showed a stunning color, and then cursed in anger, like the original hostess.

    When the little boy in the family was selected as the river god, the hostess also cursed like this, but it was not useful. Her child was still snatched away, brought to the river, and threw it into the turbulent river water.

    He is still so small, he will only call his mother, so he will be taken away from her, and will never come back again.

    At this time, some people experienced what she had experienced. The hostess was satisfied. She watched her mother and the child separate, watching the child was thrown into the river, watching the pouring heavy rain stopped, watching the bright in her hand bright Human lamps.

    "Huh." In a sigh of relief, the hostess gently extinguished the oil lamp, and the smile was even brighter.

    Although the rain stopped, a new little ghost appeared in the small town.

    Human oil lamps are not enough ... the vicious cycle begins.

    The whole small town was shrouded in this desperate cycle, and no one could escape until the arrival of foreigners.

    "Since they don't know anything, use them to make oil lamps." There was a tiny voice appearing in the crowd, saying the deepest maliciousness in the hearts, "Anyway, they don't know anything ..."

    "Yes, what do you think, how do you think you use them to be human oil lamps?" Someone asked tremblingly.

    The hostess was wearing a red skirt and sat in the crowd, and she whispered: "Okay."

    People are ecstatic.

    Hundreds of years have passed, and the hostess still maintains her face when she was young. But no one asked her how she came all, and no one dared to doubt whether she was still a person, because if there was no her, there would be no oil lamps in the town, everyone ... he had to die.

    As a result, everyone tacitly pretended not to see the hostess's appearance like years, and she was careful to treat her, as if treating a god who was easily angry.

    Poor foreigners have become the sacrifice of the river god sacrifice this time. Their bodies will become light oil, exuding warm light, guarding the people in the small town without being harmed by monsters.

    The story is over here, and some of them are made up by Lin Qiushi with other clues. But the story of Mr. Shu Shu still provides him with a very important background and framework, allowing him to fill the entire story.

    There was another shocking wood, and Mr. Said ended this long story.

    "The sky is dark." When Lin Qiushi and Gu Longming reacted, the sky outside had sank, and the street began to become empty, and only the red lanterns turned in the cold wind.

    "Let's go, go back." Gu Longming snorted, seemed to feel a little cold. He lowered, "Why is it cold here, in my hometown ... I didn't feel too cold ..."

    Lin Qiushi glanced at him: "Can you wear short sleeves in this weather?" The temperature of twelve or three degrees, this person wore a short sleeve, and there was really a ghost.

    Gu Longming said helplessly: "I didn't bring other clothes, otherwise I wore a short skirt?"

    Lin Qiushi thought that you might as well not wear anything.

    The two of them slowly returned to the courtyard, and the people in the yard were eating dinner.

    Compared with the dining room on the first day, the dining room was already empty at this time. As soon as Lin Qiushi entered, he felt that Yan Shihe's eyes cast on him.

    This average person stole something, I am afraid that he would be a bit false in his heart, but Lin Qiushi had no idea how to write the words of the heart deficiency under the teachings of Ruan Nanzhu, so he looked back without politely, and said, "Is there anything wrong?"

    "It's okay." Yan Shihe smiled, "I just worry that you are back too late, and the sky is already dark."

    Lin Qiushi said, saying, "Thank you for your concern."

    The two found a place to sit down and started dinner.

    Others left one after another, Lin Qiushi and Gu Longming also resolved dinner and walked away.

    Because of what happened last night, the window paper where the original place lived was broken, so they changed the room with a complete window paper.

    Lin Qiushi entered the room and ignited the oil lamps stolen from the Yan Shihe.

    The flames were burned on the core, and the whole room was illuminated. Lin Qiushi watched the fire and sent a daze. No one would think of the grease of the same body from the body, which would emit such a bright light.

    After a while, Lin Qiushi took out the genealogy stolen from Yan Shihe.

    Gu Longming sat by the bed: "Do you want to watch it?" They had seen it carefully during the day.

    Lin Qiushi said: "Well, look again." He always felt that this genealogy was very important.

    With the light of the oil lamp, the first page of Lin Qiushi opened, the first page was a photo of the hostess and Yu Caizhe. Only in this photo, the smile was real and brilliant. When I first saw this genealogy, Lin Qiushi just felt strange, and at this time all the doubts were unlocked by Mr. Shu's story. She was not a god who saved the town, but a mother who lost her child.

    Lin Qiushi rubbed the photo with his fingers for a moment, sighed, and opened the second page.

    However, when he saw the photos above the second page, his breathing stood, and his eyes also showed a surprise taste.

    Gu Longming noticed Lin Qiushi's strangeness, and asked, "Lin Lin, what's wrong?"

    Lin Qiushi didn't speak and beckoned to him.

    Gu Longming stood up and walked behind Lin Qiushi. When he saw the changes in the family tree, he involuntarily widened his eyes: "This...this photo..."

    Under the light of the human oil lamp, the woman who was holding the child completely changed her face, and the fake smile on her face even disappeared, leaving only a gloomy indifference, and the woman who was supposed to be in her arms was held by her. The child, in the photo at this time, was held by her in her hands. She grabbed the child's neck, as if she was carrying an insignificant chick, without even the tenderness of disguise.

    The child's body completely softened, and his cheeks showed a swollen posture. He opened his eyes and vomited his fine teeth, trying to bite at the people around him.

    The black and white picture added a bit of horror to the photos. Lin Qiushi turned back a few pages, and sure enough, he found that almost all the photos in the back were like this. The only difference is that some blood-red bright spots began to appear in the background of the photo. At first glance, it seemed that the photo was not taken well, but when Lin Qiushi looked at the bright spots, he remembered the countless pairs of eyes he saw on the ceiling of the ancestral hall. .

    The hostess's attitude towards these children who were sacrificed as sacrifices showed no softness at all. Her eyes were full of resentment and indifference, as if a vengeful ghost was torturing everyone in her own way.

    Gu Longming looked at the genealogy, and rubbed the goose bumps on his arm vigorously, he said, "I finally know why that Yan Shihe refused to take this thing with him."

    Anyone who sees it will blow their scalps.

    Lin Qiushi looked at the photo and said nothing.

    Gu Longming looked at the contemplative Lin Qiushi and said, "Lin Lin, what are you thinking about?"

    Lin Qiushi said: "Naturally I'm thinking about where the key is."

    "Have you got a clue?" Gu Longming said, "It seems that the sacrifice of the river god is coming soon..."

    Lin Qiushi said: "A little bit, but not sure."

    Gu Longming said: "Well..."

    Lin Qiushi said: "These little devils obviously don't like the hostess."

    "Who likes people who take them to sacrifice, it would be very kind if they don't come back for revenge." Gu Longming mumbled, he obviously didn't like the genealogy in front of him, and looked away from it.

    "What did you say?" Lin Qiushi suddenly felt blessed.

    "What?" Gu Longming looked bewildered, "I said... Who would like people who sacrificed them..."

    Lin Qiushi said: "No, it's the latter sentence."

    Gu Longming: "Can you come back for revenge... Wait, what do you mean?" He also understood the meaning of Lin Qiushi's words.

    Lin Qiushi clapped his hand on the table and said, "Have you forgotten how the River God sacrifice started?"

    Gu Longming: "The child who was thrown into the river turned into a kid and came back for revenge!"

    Lin Qiushi: "Yes, revenge is revenge—" He stood up, "The mistress's child is revenge, and the mistress is also revenge, their enemy is dead, so what about these little devils, these little devils still have revenge No report!"

    They are not active perpetrators, but innocent victims.

    Those selected by the hostess were forcibly taken away from their parents and thrown into the rushing river as sacrifices.

    The resentment has persisted for a long time.

    But because of the human oil lamp cooked by the hostess, they couldn't take revenge, and Lin Qiushi felt that he had caught the most crucial clue.

    Gu Longming said: "You mean, we have to kill the hostess? But don't we know that she is not human?" Something that can live for hundreds of years cannot be human.

    "That's right, she's not human anymore." Lin Qiushi said softly, "We can't kill her, but those things can."

    Gu Longming understood what Lin Qiushi meant: "You want to use a kid? But won't it be too dangerous!" Those kiddies obviously don't have much control over objects, and if they don't use the double-edged sword well, they will also hurt themselves.

    Lin Qiushi said: "River God sacrifice is coming soon, we can't wait any longer." He closed the genealogy in front of him, "When that day comes, we may not be able to survive, and if we are lucky, we may only survive one - but seven points The probability of one, you dare to bet?"

    Gu Longming really didn't dare to gamble. He looked at Lin Qiushi and smiled bitterly: "Okay, I'll listen to you, after all, your experience is much richer than mine."

    Lin Qiushi nodded, returned to the bed, lay down, and said, "Sleep, or the oil lamp may come on at night."

    Gu Longming sighed, turned off the oil lamp and lay down beside Lin Qiushi.

    Lin Qiushi was sleeping outside, just in time to see the window next to him. At this time, the window paper was full of shadows, and the silhouette on it looked a bit like the shadow of a tree blown by the wind, but if you look closely, you will find that there is a tree in the shadow. A tall, thin figure. This figure is very familiar to Lin Qiushi, who is the hostess in the yard. Lin Qiushi closed her eyes and could remember how she was standing in the middle of the yard in that red dress, quietly looking at the room where they were.

    The wind was blowing louder and louder, and the whistling sound of the wind was like human wailing. The night was already deep, and Lin Qiushi closed his eyes and forced himself to fall into a deep sleep.

    That night, Lin Qiushi finally didn't wake up halfway. He slept until the next day and was woken up by the sound of Gu Longming getting up.

    Lin Qiushi rubbed his eyes, changed his clothes and washed briefly, and then hurried to the place where he had breakfast. In fact, he wasn't too hungry, he just wanted to know if something happened last night.

    After arriving at the restaurant and counting the number of people, Lin Qiushi made sure that no accident happened yesterday.

    However, he had no appetite, and he drank the porridge in front of him one after another. Gu Longming looked completely opposite to him, happily holding the bowl in front of him, almost burying his face in it.

    After eating, Lin Qiushi planned to go to the woman's residence. Although the place was particularly dangerous, he had a detailed plan in mind.

    Gu Longming followed Lin Qiushi and asked him what he planned to do there.

    "Find a big bag." Lin Qiushi said, "steal all her lights."

    Gu Longming was shocked: "Steal the lamp? Why steal the lamp?"

    Lin Qiushi said, "Have you forgotten what the lamp does?"

    Gu Longming was stunned: "You mean that the woman didn't die, it was all thanks to the lamp? But if we go in and steal the lamp like this, will we be hacked to death on the spot if we find out."

    Lin Qiushi: "...There is such a possibility." He turned his head and glanced at Gu Longming, "So this is a multiple-choice question, whether to choose to be bitten to death by the kid or to be hacked to death by the hostess."

    Gu Longming thought about it for a while, and then compromised: "It's better to hack to death, at least to leave a corpse." After chowing down, there is nothing left.

    Lin Qiushi: "It's not necessarily going to stay, maybe she'll turn it into lamp oil."

    Gu Longming said: "Then I am willing to give you light, turn it into spring mud and protect the flowers..."

    Lin Qiushi thought that the poem "friend" is really not used in this way.

    The two of them quietly went outside the hostess' yard, Gu Longming looked inside with his head supported: "She doesn't seem to be here."

    The door is still open as before.

    There was indeed no sound inside, Lin Qiushi said: "You let me out outside, I'll go in first."

    Gu Longming said: "Farewell, let's"

    "No." Lin Qiushi said, "At least something really happened, and there is someone outside to take care of it."

    Gu Longming wanted to say more, but saw that Lin Qiushi had a firm attitude, so he had to give up, standing outside the yard and watched Lin Qiushi go in.

    As soon as Lin Qiushi arrived in the yard, he quickly locked the target in the room he had entered before. He did not dare to waste time, and after entering, he stuffed the oil lamp into his backpack. Until the backpack was stuffed bulging, and the rest of the oil lamps on the shelf were thrown directly into the fire that was burning the hot pot not far away.

    The oil lamp was in contact with the flame, exuding a strong oily smell. If you don't know this smell, you may feel nothing, but once you know that it is the smell of human body oil, it will inevitably feel particularly disgusting.

    The same is true for Lin Qiushi. He resisted the feeling of nausea and threw all the oil lamps into the fire. Just when Lin Qiushi threw away the last lamp, there was a cry belonging to a child from the back room. The cry was so sharp that Lin Qiushi even felt his ears hurt. He was about to go to the back room to take a look at the crying thing, but he heard Gu Longming's voice again.

    Gu Longming, who was watching the wind at the door, suddenly scolded swearing words, and rudely scolded a string of quality eighteen with his northeastern accent.

    Lin Qiushi realized the meaning of Gu Longming in an instant. He didn't dare to enter the house again. He turned his backpack and turned and ran. He didn't dare to run towards the door of the yard. Instead, he went to a remote place first.

    Sure enough, a woman wearing a red dress appeared at the door of the yard. She seemed to hear the children crying from the room. The pair of black eyes slowly stared, and there was an unable to suppress the face without expression. anger.

    Lin Qiushi was shocking.

    The next action of the woman was hung up in the yard as usual, and then turned to enter the house.

    Lin Qiushi knew that he had only one chance. He held his breath. After the woman entered the house, he rushed towards the big lock hanging at the door.

    He quickly pulled out his card and wanted to open the iron lock in front of him.

    Fast, faster ... Lin Qiushi's forehead overflowed with cold sweat, but his hands were stable. He forced himself to calm down and stopped him with footsteps behind him, but opened the big lock in front of him.

    With a sound, the locks opened, and the footsteps of the woman had reached behind. The moment Lin Qiushi opened the door, she felt a strong wind behind her. Gu Longming, standing at the door, showed a very frightened expression behind him, he shouted: "Lin Lin -Run !!!"

    However, it was too late. Lin Qiushi saw a shadow, slipped from behind him, and then split down something towards his back -at this moment, he finally understood what the shadow was. It was the long knife held by the woman's hand, and the long knife had been cut on his back. He felt a very powerful force and hit him out.

    Lin Qiushi fell to the ground.

    Gu Longming couldn't help scolding, and hurried forward: "Yu Linlin, Yu Linlin, you're okay!" When he checked Lin Qiushi, he turned his head and looked at the woman, saw the woman standing in the yard, and twisted to them. The smile, obviously determined that Lin Qiushi must die.

    When she was holding a knife, she didn't seem to leave the yard. This made Gu Longming slightly loose, but thought of Lin Qiushi's condition, his heart could not help sinking. In his opinion, Lin Qiushi, who was split like this, is probably fierce.

    However, when Gu Longming thought that Lin Qiushi was so gone, he saw Lin Qiushi cough several times and climbed up from the ground.

    "I ghost, you are all right!" Gu Longming said involuntarily, "Yu Linlin, you are awesome."

    Lin Qiushi also thought he was dead. He turned his head and looked behind him. He found that his backpack was cut and exposed. It was these lights that helped him block the deadly blow.

    He survived successfully!
