Wang Demin put his fingers on Lu Lu's wrist and touched it for a long time before slowly pulling it back.
"Hey...Isn't that a problem?" He was also in trouble.
Lu Lu retracted his hand and put down his sleeves: "Then what do you think of my complexion..."
By the way, he took down the mirror hanging on the window of Wang Demin's house and looked at himself. He only felt a little haggard, but he didn't see anything wrong.
"How should I put it? When you came back this time, when I saw you for the first time, I felt a little strange. You had a gloomy feeling, and you were a little fierce. Yes, it was fierce! Just when I saw you suddenly, I felt that I was not here to fight.
Human, right?"
Um?
Lu Lu was stunned for a moment, and something in his heart was touched again.
He turned to look at Chen Xiuyu: "Daughter-in-law, when you look at me, do you feel this way?"
Chen Xiuyu did not hesitate this time, but nodded carefully: "You had another dream last night, which was a little scary!"
Now, Lu Lu was sure that the problem was not with his child, Lu Zhengyang, but with himself.
Probably because I was still young, I had a more intuitive sense of breath and security, so I became very sensitive and instinctively feared and resisted.
Besides, it's a little unusual to have dreams all the time.
Lu Lu couldn't help but think of the dream he had while taking a bath.
He breathed a long sigh of relief and smiled at Wang Demin: "Maybe, hunting outside during this period may have some impact... Okay, uncle, you are busy, I have to go to Huilongtun to pay for Jin
Jiabao, Uncle Jin also gives me something!"
Lu Lu said as he got off the kang and put on his shoes: "How much does it cost?"
Wang Demin rolled his eyes at Lu Lu: "You kid, how big of a deal is it for you to ask me for money!"
Lu Lu smiled and nodded without saying anything else. He called Chen Xiuyu, held the child in his arms, left Wang Demin's house, got on the sledge, and hurried to Huilong Tun.
It took more than 20 minutes for Lu Lu to drive the sledge to Huilongtun. When he was outside the yard, he saw Jin Jiabao on the snow in the yard, holding a piece of oilcloth as a cushion and using a knife to take care of one of the animals.
Half-large roe deer on oilcloth.
"Uncle..." Lu Lu said hello with a smile.
Jin Jiabao looked up at Lu Lu, walked over and opened the courtyard door: "What do you want to do this time?"
"I can't come and see you without hunting something!" Lu Lu said with a smile: "Didn't I just come back from the mountains and bring you some flying dragon, red deer meat, bear leg meat and fish caught in the river?
"
Jin Jiabao gave Lu Lu a rare smile: "They are all good things... Liang Pao also sent me some yesterday."
"What he gave was his affection, what I gave was mine!"
Liang Kangbo's wooden house has been built and he has moved into a new house. When Lu Lu passed by Liang Kangbo's old house just now, he took a look and found that it had completely turned into a chicken pen and a pig pen.
His family hasn't held a housewarming banquet yet. According to what he said on the way back, he will choose a date before the year to have a banquet.
Jin Jiabao nodded, took what Lu Lu handed over, opened it and looked at it, his face full of joy: "I really envy you who know how to hunt, you can always eat good food, unlike me, who have to struggle to get a roe deer."
, I went to several places and sprinkled a lot of medicine beans to get one like this."
"You still have to be careful with the prey of Medicinal Beans. You don't know how much it has eaten. If it eats too much, it will be very toxic. You still have to handle it carefully when eating."
Lu Lu looked at the roe deer, which was foaming at the mouth and with its purple tongue hanging crookedly from its mouth, and gave a few words.
"I have experience with this, not just once or twice..." Jin Jiabao laughed, showing his black teeth: "Let's go inside and drink water!"
Lu Lu shook his head: "Let's wait another day. I just came back from the mountains. I'm so tired that I just want to go home and lie down on the kang. I'll come over to see you, and then I plan to go back to sleep. You are busy with something... Let's go.
.”
With all his heart in mind, Lu Lu really didn't have anything to say and didn't plan to stay here.
"Come and sit at home when you have time!" Jin Jiabao did not deliberately try to persuade him to stay.
However, this time, he followed Lu Lu to the main road before turning back home. As he walked, he smiled slightly, as if he had encountered something happy.
Seeing Lu Lu driving the sledge back to Caodianzi, Chen Xiuyu did not get on the sledge immediately, but looked at Lu Lu: "Brother Lu, we have all arrived at Huilong Tun, why don't we go and find Liu Dashan by the way?"
"Didn't Uncle Wang tell you everything? There's nothing wrong with the child. It's possible that he was scared by me!" Lu Lu reached out and rubbed Chen Xiuyu's hair: "Maybe the problem is with me, and it will be fine in a few days."
"Just go and have a look. Anyway, just for peace of mind, just in case it's useful!" Chen Xiuyu blinked at Lu Lu with her big eyes.
Looking for peace of mind?
Lu Lu was stunned for a moment, but finally nodded.
You're all here, so let's go and ask. Maybe these people who have been doing these things all year round have something to say. It's good to go and listen.
The two of them found a random person on the side of the road, inquired about the location of Liu Dashan's house, and headed over with their sledges.
Liu Dashan's house is located at the very back of Huilong Tun. There are three small mud-board houses - it is also built using the wood-carving method. However, the materials used are not very particular. After the frame is made, the seams are glued with yellow mud.
It was a flattened house, with a small courtyard simply woven with wicker, and not much else.
Lu Lu led Chen Xiuyu to the yard and shouted twice inside. An old woman opened the door and came out: "What do you want?"
"We are here to see Uncle Liu. The child has been acting a bit badly recently!" Chen Xiuyu stepped forward and explained the purpose of our visit.
The old woman looked around and saw that there was no one around. She ran to the door of the courtyard and said in a low voice: "Follow me into the house!"
No matter how you look at it, you feel a little guilty.
But now that he was here, Lu Lu no longer thought about it and followed the old woman into the house.
There were very few furnishings in the room, most of which were old, and there was no one else. There was just an old man with gray hair and a thin face lying on the kang, looking out the window aimlessly. Lu Lu saw that his left arm was weak.
It was hanging down on the kang, like a piece of dry firewood.
I was beaten in the early years and it was probably my left hand that became disabled.
Seeing Lu Lu and Chen Xiuyu come in, Liu Dashan supported himself with his right hand and sat upright: "You are..."
"It's like this. In the past few days, I went to the mountains for a trip. After I came back, the children at home were not allowed to come near me. Sometimes, they would burst into tears when they saw me, and they wouldn't let me touch them.
He couldn't hold me, as if he was scared of me. I took him to the doctor, and he said there was nothing wrong with him and he was very healthy... So, I would like to ask you to see if I have to wake up, or is it my problem?
?”
Lu Lu briefly explained his purpose.
Liu Dashan did not speak immediately, but glanced at the child and Lu Lu, and finally stared at Lu Lu's face for a long time before saying: "I don't know anything else, so I will write you a soul-binding spell. But this matter
Son, don’t dare to talk nonsense outside.”
The soul-binding code is also called the soul-binding curse.
Lu Lu nodded, knowing his concerns.
However, he was still a little disappointed. He thought Liu Dashan would say something, but instead of saying anything, he simply said to write the soul-detaining code.
I saw him turn around and dig out a piece of sixteen-fold yellow mounting paper (the kind used for burning paper) from the old kangqin, then took a brush and cinnabar ink, laid out the yellow paper on the kang table, and made
After getting ready, he asked: "What's the baby's nickname?"
Nickname?
Lu Lu was stunned for a moment. The name he used directly at that time did not have a nickname. If there was a nickname, Chen Xiuyu often called the child "Yangyang", so he told Liu Dashan the name.
Immediately, Liu Dashan dipped his pen in ink and wrote the child's baby name on the yellow paper from right to left and from top to bottom. The name was larger than the other characters and was very eye-catching.
Then I started writing.
To Lu Lu's surprise, except for some symbols such as the pardon order, Lu Lu could see the content clearly, and Liu Dashan's calligraphy was actually quite beautiful.
"Wandering souls, where can they stay? Wilderness, temples and forests. Mountain gods, five gods, river and land gods. The land of the village is given to the door of the family. The master of the house and stove is given to himself."
Then there was a series of command talisman paintings.
When Liu Dashan handed the things over, he explained by the way: "When the child falls asleep at night, open a small gap on top of his head or at the door of the room. When the door of the stove turns to ashes, he should open the door to a small gap and call the child home repeatedly.
, it should be ready tomorrow!”
Lu Lu took it seriously: "Is this... enough?"
Liu Dashan nodded.
"How much?" Lu Lu then asked.
"Just give it as you like!" Liu Dashan said quietly.
Lu Lu glanced at everything in his room, took out ten dollars and put it on the table, nodded to him, said thank you, called Chen Xiuyu, led the children away from Liu Dashan's house, and then drove the sledge back to Caodianzi.
There was nothing going on at home for the time being, so Chen Xiuyu was left to lead the children, while Lu Lu sorted the fish into piles in the yard. As for the remaining meat, they were buried directly in the snow.
The day passed quietly. After the couple finished eating, they quietly waited for dark.
At about five o'clock, it was completely dark. Chen Xiuyu also took out the yellow paper with the soul arrest code written on it and handed it to Lu Lu.
Lu Lu took it and looked at it, then got off the kang, put on his shoes and walked outside. Then he went to the kang stove, took a match and lit it, watching the ashes fly away with the cold wind until they were completely reduced to ashes, then he returned to the house.
There is a crack in the door...
Lu Lu looked at Chen Xiuyu, but for a moment he didn't know how to speak. He had never done this in his previous life.
However, he soon discovered that Chen Xiuyu was also blushing and couldn't speak.
Both of them felt quite awkward.
"Alas... I'll do it!"
Lu Lu took a deep breath and immediately sang the soul-calling song, but changed the word Xiaoerwa to the name of his child: "Xiao Zhengyang...Xiao Zhengyang, the three souls and seven souls have come home, you
If you want to come, come quickly and wait in front of the mountains and behind the mountains..."
He was singing, singing very seriously, but in his mind he remembered the scene when he left Shanghai and was at the station. At that time, he also sang this song. For a while, he had mixed feelings and the song was full of vicissitudes.
Chen Xiuyu was listening, listening very carefully.
After singing it once, Chen Xiuyu looked at Lu Lu blankly, with a strange expression on her face.
"What's wrong?" Lu Lu looked back at Chen Xiuyu, who was looking dumbfounded at the side: "Did I scream well?"
Chen Xiuyu shook her head: "Why do I think it still sounds good...Brother Lu, do you want to call me again?"
Lu Lu smiled slightly: "Let's shout together!"
After singing the excerpts two more times in succession, the matter was finally completed. The couple closed the door and went back to the kang to rest.
However, when Lu Lu woke up the next day, he immediately wanted to hug the child, but found that the child still cried when touched.
"Didn't you say it would be fine today?"
Lu Lu muttered in a low voice: "It seems that the problem still occurs with me!"
But after thinking about it and thinking about that dream, Lu Lu suddenly felt that it was because he had too much desire to kill.
This feeling is like a professional executioner or a butcher, which always makes people instinctively afraid of him easily, even if they don't know what he is doing, there is always a feeling of evil and evil.
Didn't Wang Demin also say that he feels a bit gloomy and a bit fierce now?
It seems that we need to find a way to solve it.
But now, Lu Lu thought that the only person who could help him was Zhao Tuanqing.
