Chapter 318

The night deepened.

The villagers went to bed early.

In addition, this place was relatively remote and not affected by the war. At eight or nine o'clock in the evening, the village was very quiet.

Bang...

In the distance, Shi Shaojian heard the sound of gongs.

Then there were faint drum sounds.

"From the direction, it's really the family I asked before."

The male owner of the house where they stayed said that at night, women would beat gongs and drums, as if to welcome someone's arrival.

Shi Shaojian rolled his eyes, put on his clothes and walked out of the room. Along the dirt road in the village, he arrived not far from the house of the crazy woman.

He didn't rush to show up. He jumped onto the high wall and found a corner to hide quietly.

The lights were on in the woman's house. There were some strange talismans on the left side room. Shi Shaojian had never seen the characters on them.

In order for the talismans to have a certain power, they must be infused with 'Qi'. The talismans hanging on the left-hand wing have nothing but cinnabar and yellow paper, which means they look mysterious.

"Given by a liar?"

Shi Shaojian looked at the woman who kept beating the gongs and drums. He could not see her purpose for the time being.

Just as he finished his thoughts, a figure suddenly sat up by the window of the big house with the lights on. He looked relatively thin. I think it was the male owner of the house.

He seemed to have noticed something and his body was trembling slightly.

The woman was the same. She stared straight at the door.

Shi Shaojian then noticed that the door was open.

"Is it really welcoming something?"

Shi Shaojian frowned and vaguely saw a shaky figure coming in the distance.

The figure who came was dressed relatively young and had a smile on his face.

When he walked to the door, the drumstick in the woman's hand fell directly to the ground. She covered her mouth and tears fell.

The person standing at the door was excited: "Mom, Dad, I'm back."

The woman screamed excitedly and rushed to the door directly. The male owner in the house seemed to be a little panicked.

But it seemed that it was not excitement, but more like fear.

The scene in front of him made Shi Shaojian feel awkward. He moved his heart and began to perform the magic he got from the old Taoist priest according to his memory: All things are one thought.

As his own "Qi" continued to extend, although Shi Shaojian closed his eyes, the surrounding scenes poured into his mind without missing a single thing.

The surrounding air is him, the stars in the sky are him, the couplets on the door are him, the lights on the roof are him...

Everything is Shi Shaojian, and he can see more details through a smaller perspective.

Gradually, Shi Shaojian discovered something different.

Opening his eyes again, he looked at the scene of mother and son reuniting in front of him and sighed slightly: "Pathetic."

He stood up and jumped directly into the yard.

Having understood the details of the incident, there was naturally no need to continue this farce.

The mother and son hugged each other tightly at the door, and they seemed to be crying with joy without noticing Shi Shaojian's appearance.

But as the woman's emotions fluctuated more and more violently, something in her body seemed to be lost.

Shi Shaojian glanced inside the house and said, "I know you have noticed something wrong a long time ago."

"You guessed right, that thing is not your son at all."

"You should have the so-called soul-guiding incense burning in your room, right?"

"Put it out!"

The male owner in the room was shocked, as if he had never expected Shi Shaojian to say such a thing.

Shi Shaojian looked at the woman who seemed to have become older, and immediately cursed.

"Do you want to watch your wife go even crazier?"

"She did something wrong, but she also wants you to get better. Besides, she was just deceived!"

After hearing this, the male owner finally made up his mind and trembled to get a basin of water from the kang.

After hearing the sound of water splashing out, Shi Shaojian immediately took action.

Stepping on the seven stars, he chanted something.

"Six Ding Yin Gods, protect his Yin soul, six Jia Yang Gods, protect his flesh body!"

Raising his hand and grabbing, a green willow leaf appeared between his two fingers.

Shi Shaojian continued: "What the mortal eyes see is not true, borrow a thought, and keep your heart steady!"

Shi Shaojian moved quickly, and appeared in front of the woman in just a breath. The willow leaf in his hand quickly passed through the woman's eyes, and then shouted loudly: "Open your eyes and see, is it your son!"

When the willow leaf slid across the woman's eyes, the appearance of the 'son' in front of her had changed dramatically.

The pretty face turned into rotten bones, and the neat clothes on the bodyIt also became tattered.

This is not the son who would come back to reunite with her every night. This is clearly a dry skeleton crawling out of the ground.

"Ah!"

The sudden change made the woman scream shrilly, and she retreated continuously.

Shi Shaojian raised his hand and pressed the woman's back, and the woman stopped screaming and fainted temporarily.

The dead body crawling out of the ground clearly had a pair of smart eyes. When it saw that its disguise was exposed, it turned around and wanted to run.

Shi Shaojian's mind moved, and something appeared between his fingers. He stepped forward directly: "Stop!"

The sword finger was extended to touch the abdomen of the corpse, and then subconsciously tried to stop the corpse.

Who would have thought that the thing was very strong, and it directly pushed Shi Shaojian away and quickly disappeared into the night.

Seeing that the thing ran away and could no longer be seen, Shi Shaojian slowly got up and looked at the thin male owner who walked out of the big house.

When he saw the woman lying on the ground, tears came down and he rushed forward quickly.

…

Five minutes later.

The big house.

The woman fell asleep, and Shi Shaojian checked her body and found that she was fine.

As for the reason why she looked old, Shi Shaojian could not find out, and naturally he could not treat her.

What made Shi Shaojian even more worried was that when the woman was holding the corpse and her emotions fluctuated violently, he clearly felt that something was pulled out of the woman's body.

But now, he found nothing.

With a frown, he looked at the male owner in front of him who was seriously ill.

"Tell me, what's going on."

"Who did your wife get the prescription from?"

The male owner was shocked.

As early as when Shi Shaojian used the thought of all things, he discovered the hidden truth.

The truth was not what the villagers said.

The whole village was deceived.

What they saw was not the truth at all.

The fact is that the woman got a strange prescription from someone, and the medicine in the prescription was her son.

The child was indeed a good child, and he was also deceived and mistakenly believed that he could cure his father by following the instructions on the prescription.

But in the end, he just paid with his life in vain, and made his mother crazy after learning the truth.

Now, the woman was further deceived in order to find her son, and she kept paying but got no reward.
