Chapter 81: Old Man
This dagger..." Chang Shan asked tremblingly.
"What's wrong with the dagger? Didn't you give this to me?" Qing Wu shook the dagger, and Chang Shan immediately retreated further.
"Put it away! It's very, very dangerous!" Chang Shan said timidly.
"No! It's just a dagger! You told me before that it was very evil and could ward off evil spirits!" Qing Wu recalled the conversation with Chang Shan that day.
"You seem to be afraid of it? You are not Chang Shan!" Qing Wu suddenly remembered that the horse-faced ghost was inexplicably deflected and seriously injured before, and Chang Shan's behavior was getting more and more weird at this moment!
"Who are you?" Qing Wu became afraid and pointed his dagger at Chang Shan, who immediately stepped back.
"I am Chang Shan, put it away!" Chang Shan denied.
"You're not! Tell me the truth!" Qing Wu raised his dagger and rushed towards Chang Shan, regardless of the pain of the wound.
"Don't come here!" Chang Shan immediately backed away, "I won't hurt you, I just saved you."
"Tell me, who are you?" With the protection of the dagger, Qing Wu seemed to be emboldened this time and was not afraid of anything.
"Put it away and I'll tell you!" Qing Wu took a step forward, and Chang Shan immediately took two steps back, his eyes filled with horror.
"No, tell me first who you are?" Qing Wu said a word and took a step forward.
"Stand where you are and don't move, I'll tell you!" Chang Shan was forced to step back step by step.
Hearing Chang Shan's words, "Okay!" Qing Wu immediately stopped. Chang Shan waved his hand, and Qing Wu suddenly felt dizzy in front of her eyes. She rubbed her eyes, and when she looked at Chang Shan again, he had changed.
"Xin Zhu?" Qing Wu looked at the person in front of him in disbelief.
"It's me! I told you that I wouldn't hurt you, but you didn't believe me!" Xin Zhu said aggrievedly immediately. Qing Wu was so excited to see his old friend that he ran over.
"Stop, don't come over, put the dagger away first!" Xin Zhu backed away in fear.
"Xin Zhu, why are you here?" Qing Wu immediately put the dagger behind his back and ran towards Xin Zhu.
Xin Zhu straightened his clothes, took Qing Wu and left, "This is not the place to talk. I will explain to you later!"
Qing Wu had no choice but to trot and follow Xin Zhu closely.
Xin Zhu took Qing Wu and sneaked back to his home quietly. He found a set of his own clothes for Qing Wu to put on quickly. He wanted to immediately burn Qing Wu's clothes stained with her blood.
Qing Wu slowly took off her clothes. The blood had solidified. The pieces of clothes stuck to the rotten flesh at the wound. The flesh and blood near the wound had turned dark red and turned black. She carefully tore off the clothes, tears of pain came out.
.
She got into the barrel, soaked in the water for a while, cleaned the blood all over her body, applied the medicine and put on Xin Zhu's clothes.
Xin Zhu is actually not very tall, just 178cm tall, and Xin Zhu is very thin, so Qing Wu's clothes fit him well.
Qing Wu tinkered in the room for a while, added something to the bath water according to Xin Zhu's request, and fed Hei Bo Bo.
Qing Wu smelled a burning smell and went out to see Xin Zhu burning her clothes.
Xin Zhu squatted on the ground, his back looking very thin and lonely.
She remembered that when she was a child, Xin Zhu was considered tall among her peers. How could she become like this?
This happened often, Qing Wu knew that she was still in the underworld, but why did Xin Zhu appear in the underworld? He was afraid of the dagger in his hand just now, so he was already...
Thinking of Qing Wu like this, he suddenly felt sad.
"Xin Zhu, what have you experienced these years?" Qing Wu walked over and squatted side by side with him.
When Xin Zhu saw Qing Wu coming out, he took some unknown water and sprinkled it on her body.
"What is this?" Qing Wu quickly covered his face.
"These can cover up the smell of blood and the smell of living people on your body!" Xin Zhu said as he sprinkled them.
Qing Wu stopped dodging and let him spray. Seeing Xin Zhu's serious look, she finally couldn't help but ask: "Xin Zhu, have you already...?"
"Yes! Otherwise you wouldn't have met me, but luckily you met me..." Xin Zhu said very calmly.
He wanted to continue, but Qing Wu suddenly interrupted him: "What happened to you?"
Hearing Qing Wu's question, Xin Zhu's eyes dimmed and he slowly spoke to Qing Wu.
"After the first year I met you, I went to work during the summer vacation and accidentally deceived someone into joining the CX organization. They asked me to cheat and harm people. When I refused, they beat me and locked me in a dark room.
You don't give me food and torture me every day." Xin Zhu said, stirring the unburned clothes with a stick, and continued:
"Then they arrested another little girl. She looked even more pitiful than me. They put us in a small dark room together. During those days, we comforted each other and redeemed each other. One day, a strong black man came and he wanted to be raped/
That girl Bo, I was beaten to death by them just to save her." Xin Zhu wiped his tears as he spoke.
"I'm sorry! Xin Zhu, I shouldn't have asked." Qing Wu instantly felt that he had exposed someone else's scar.
"This is my destiny, but it's you, a big living person, why do you come to the underworld? How dangerous!" Xin Zhu wondered.
Qing Wu didn't know how to explain it, so Xin Zhu continued: "When I first met you, I thought you had already..."
Qing Wu smiled and shook his head and said, "Thank you for saving me!"
"You haven't told me why you came to the underworld! This is not the place you should come to!" Xin Zhu said with concern.
"It's a long story, so I might as well not mention it!" Qing Wu didn't know where to start and didn't want to talk about it.
"Then tell me why the evil ghost killed you earlier!" Xin Zhu said instead.
"Her! That's even more ridiculous!" Qing Wu smiled helplessly.
"How ridiculous? Tell me!" Xin Zhu stirred the fire, letting the clothes burn as much as possible without leaving any residue.
"She was my colleague when she was alive. She hanged herself because I was in prison. She previously accused me of instigating someone to kill her in prison. She didn't want to commit suicide. She wanted to kill me. Fortunately, you came in time.
!" Qing Wu narrated sadly.
"No wonder!" Xin Zhu took out the water that he had sprayed on Qing Wu before and poured it all into the burned out fire.
Qing Wu looked at Xin Zhu's every move and was a little confused. He was silent for a moment and said, "What's the wonder?"
"She looks like she has just passed away, but her resentment is so strong that she is almost as angry as a ghost who has been dead for a year or two." Xin Zhu explained slowly.
"It's my fault. I shouldn't have thought of teaching her a lesson, which is why she ended up like this!" Qing Wu lowered his head and said guiltily.
"So it's really you who asked you to kill her?" Xin Zhu looked at Qing Wu playfully.
"How could that be possible? I don't have the ability to do that. It was because she deliberately hit me while riding a bicycle. I just wanted her to be detained for a few days and learn a lesson!" Qing Wu wiped away the tears that were about to shed.
"Oh, in a society ruled by law, we should be taught a lesson for being so rampant! What happens after that? Why did she die in prison?" Xin Zhu moved towards Qing Wu.
"She said that a green-eyed man killed her in prison. The night she died, she turned into a demon and came to seek my life. However, she was severely injured by the green-eyed man at my house!" Qing Wu looked at her.
He looked thoughtfully at the cooling fire.
"Who is the man with green eyes?" Xin Zhu gossiped cautiously.
"I don't know who the green-eyed man is, but she said he was a cat-eyed monster! I do have a cat, the one in my backpack, and I came to the underworld because of this!" Qing Wu explained.
"That's just an ordinary cat! You kept calling me Changshan before, so what's the matter?" Xin Zhu murmured.
"He! He is a Taoist priest. It was he who told me that my cat was a demon and had returned to the demon world! What was left was a dead body." Qing Wu lamented.
"It is indeed a dead corpse, but you trust him very much!" Xin Zhu looked at Qing Wu with a different emotion in his eyes.
"Even you said it was a dead body, so I didn't trust him, but what he said was right and cleared up my doubts, so I believed his advice and came to the underworld." Qing Wu dragged him.
jaw.
"I have to continue on my way to the demon world! To find my ungrateful, heartless cat!" Qing Wu said calmly, as if he was telling someone else's story.
"Looking for a cat?" Xin Zhu swallowed.
Qing Wu turned to look at him.
"Let's not talk about whether this cat is in the demon world or not. Just Chang Shan tricking you into entering the six realms is nothing! You are a mortal, have no spiritual power, and are still a weak woman. How can you escape all kinds of dangers and go to the demon world? The underworld alone is nothing.
There are so many dangers, why would you put yourself in danger?" Xin Zhu felt distressed.
"Damn, he really cheated me. I didn't even have time to say goodbye to my parents. They must be looking for me to go crazy!" Qing Wu thought about his parents, relatives and friends.
"Turn back! I will take you out of the underworld and back to the human world!" Xin Zhu said firmly.
"Xin Zhu, I have already come here and I have suffered the injuries I deserve. Wouldn't it be in vain if I look back?" Qing Wu looked at Xin Zhu and smiled.
Qing Wu slapped his scared face and continued: "Let's talk! Based on what I have experienced now, can I still live a normal life when I go back?"
"It's true! Once you enter these six realms, you can't go back. Your previous understanding has been completely overturned, but it's a pain for you. You may not know whether you will live or die along the way!" Xin Zhu's face was full of heartache.
"Xin Zhu, after this incident, I now! I really believe in one sentence, human life is destined by God! I am afraid that God has arranged this for me today, and it is something I must experience in my life!" Qing Wu
I am always so optimistic. When I can't make it, I try to find ways to make things better to comfort myself.
Xin Zhu suddenly said with a serious face: "You stay here with me! We will find a secret place and wait for you to be born again a hundred years later!"
"Haha! This is so troublesome. If I stay here with you, I'm afraid it will bring you many crises!" Qing Wu glanced at the sky and decisively refused.
"I'm serious. I know a bamboo house in a dense forest with a barrier around it. I have tried to melt the barrier and it has become my private territory." Xin Zhu turned to look at Qing Wu.
"We can live there, and the barrier there can completely isolate your breath. I will go to the mortal world to get some seeds, and we will grow some vegetables for the rest of our lives, two people in a house, and a full moon." Xin Zhu looked at Qing.
Wu said his plan seriously.
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Qing Wu stood up awkwardly and patted the dust on his butt.
"I'm hungry, let's go find some food!" Qing Wu's stomach growled appropriately.
Xin Zhu shook his head and smiled sadly. He knew that Qing Wu could no longer persuade her, and there would be many crises waiting for her ahead.
