Chapter 40: Sleepiness Harms People
Really, what is it? Yu Bing pretended to be surprised and asked, but his expression was a little contrived, and even I could see it. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
Aren't you hungry, then sit down for a while, I'll go to the kitchen and get you some side dishes, and I'll be back soon." Sit and don't go, soon. The old woman said as she walked out of the house.
Yiyang, are you stupid, have you forgotten what your grandfather said to you before leaving? After Yu Bing saw the old woman leave, her face instantly became serious.
What words? Tell me about it. I asked, puzzled.
When you meet people and say three points, you can't throw away all of your heart! Your grandfather confessed to you, and you forgot it so quickly, a lonely old woman, who has only known each other for less than half a day, and you drink other people's water with a big grin, and you don't have any defense at all. Yu Bing rolled her eyes at me angrily.
Ah, is there something wrong with this water? Tianhong hurriedly asked.
If I'm not mistaken, this old woman has fallen asleep in the water! Isn't the water you drank just now particularly sweet? Yu Bing asked everyone with a mysterious face.
Yes, it's really sweet, it's still sweeter than the water in Tianshui Rock under our Longtou Mountain, it feels a little strange, but is there anything wrong with that? The old woman drank it herself! I lowered my voice and voiced my doubts.
She is a Gu person, of course this bit of Gu poison will not have any effect on her, I have seen this kind of Gu poison, I studied art in Tianmen Mountain in the early years, and I paid for this poison, so it will not have any impact on me, but after you ordinary people drink it, within the time of a pillar of incense, you will be dizzy and dizzy, your feet will be weak, and then you will fall to the ground and let others slaughter! Yu Bing's rapid analysis.
So what should I do, what does she want to do, we have no grudges, why should she harm us? The monkey suddenly felt a little furious.
Don't worry, I have the antidote here, while the old woman is not here, you take it first, and then run away secretly, she is an old woman, she should not be able to catch up with us. As he spoke, Yu Bing took out a porcelain bottle from his jacket pocket, and quickly poured out four black pills with a fragrance the size of a son, and let everyone share and eat them.
After taking Yu Bing's pill, I said in a firm tone: "No, I can't just run away, I have to figure out why this old woman did this, otherwise other people passing by in the future will still be plotted by the old woman, what do you think?"
Yiyang is right, even if we escape, the old woman may still harm others, but what can we do if we stay?
She knows Gu, I don't know if there are other harmful tricks, if it wasn't for Yu Bing's alertness just now, I don't know if we have her way by now! Tianhong said worriedly.
I have a solution.
Yiyang, what way, you say it quickly? The three of them asked in unison.
Why don't we come and do what he wants? I looked at everyone mysteriously and said.
How do I get the right thing? Yu Bing asked with interest.
Come here, I will tell you. I motioned for everyone to come over a bit.
When the three of them heard this, they hurriedly leaned their ears over and listened patiently to my plan.
When I finished the plan, the old woman's footsteps sounded from behind at the right time.
We hurriedly gathered our minds, and sat down at the table with pretended composure, looking out the door, waiting for the old woman to come in.
After a while, the old woman held a big bowl, and the pace slowly appeared in front of the four of us, the big bowl in her hand was porcelain white, which was a commonly used vegetable bowl for the ordinary people in Xiangxi, and the bowl was tightly covered with a saucer, and the contents could not be seen, but Rao was so, which already gave people a sense of mystery.
In a trance, she had already entered the house with a smile on her face, and at this moment the goat outside the house suddenly barked anxiously, as if to warn us.
Mother-in-law, what kind of delicious food did you make? Yu Bing looked at the old woman with interest and asked with a light smile.
Oh, it's some country dishes, I'll cover it with a plate to keep it from cooling, and I'll kick it up with two later, and then you can eat it. The old woman replied patiently, if it weren't for Yu Bing's discovery of poison in the water just now, we would almost believe that she was a warm-hearted mother-in-law.
Well, then you go and kick it over, we're hungry too. I pretended to be naïve and urged the old woman, trying to blind her with a hunger-for-nothing attitude.
The old woman turned her head and looked at me deeply, smiled strangely at me, and went out.
Is there really food in it? The monkey gestured to the tightly covered plate on the table.
I don't know, anyway, I'll pretend to eat a little bit for a while, don't swallow it, and it should be fine. Yu Bing whispered to everyone.
Well, everything is up to you. I quietly agreed.
What are you young men talking about, tell my wife about it, too. The old woman's voice suddenly sounded from behind her.
I turned to see the old woman standing outside the door with a plate in each hand, laughing softly, the sun in the courtyard shining obliquely on her back, and the front was unusually dark because of it, the thick lips that rolled up and down when she spoke, and the two rows of yellowed teeth, made people feel inexplicably disgusting.
Oh, Mother-in-law, it's nothing, we're talking about it for a while, and we're going on our way. Let's see if we can get to Lao Siyan before dark. The monkey was very perfunctory, and if it hadn't been discussed in advance, even I might have been deceived by his sincere expression.
Don't be in a hurry, eat, rest here for the night, and hurry again tomorrow morning, otherwise it will be very dangerous for you to walk at night. When the old woman heard that we had eaten something and were leaving, she hurriedly waved her hand to keep us.
Let's not talk about this for now, I'm so hungry, mother-in-law, have you got your things ready? Tianhong shouted on the side.
Hey, hey, let's get it, let's serve it. The old woman walked up to the four of them as she spoke, and brought the two bowls in her hands to us.
Lift your plate and start eating. The old woman said politely.
The monkey was probably very hungry, and as soon as the old woman had finished speaking, he immediately pounced on him and lifted the lid of the white porcelain bowl with one hand.
Wow, there was a bunch of maggots slowly wriggling on the plate. There are hundreds of them, large and small.
For a while, the smell of fishy smell instantly permeated the entire room, and Tianhong vomited directly.
What do you mean? Old lady! The monkey cursed loudly.
What do I mean, huh, guess what I mean? The old woman asked the monkey with a wicked smile.
Do you want to harm us? You wicked old woman. Tianhong scolded while vomiting.
That's right, you little ghosts, stay for me, don't even think about running away today. Tsk, it's been a long time since I've caught so many oily and slippery kids, and I'm going to make a lot of money this time. Hey, hey, hey.
Yiyang, let's run. The monkey pulled Tianhong and I and ran out the door.
And Yu Bing boldly picked up the plate full of maggots on the table and smashed it at the old woman with a wicked smile.
