The Spirit Suppressing Museum

Chapter 63 People's Desires Are Undead
Where does the story begin...

It's been so long, I can't remember.

In the dark room, a little oil lamp was lit, and the dim green illuminated the surroundings a bit gloomy.

A thin palm flicked the wick in a trance.

I just remember that in the beginning, there was a poor boy who lived on the edge of the Luo River. His parents were already dead. He had to go to herd cattle every day.

Right, cow.

He grinned and finally remembered.

He also has a cow.

………………

Father and mother died early, the elder brother and sister-in-law inherited the house, leaving him a house and a cow.

Nothing to complain about.

I go out early every day, let the cattle graze, and pull the cattle to cultivate the land. Although I am not rich, my life is very leisurely.

The poor boy thought that was enough.

This is an ordinary life, marrying a wife, having children, and the story begins to change, starting from the time he met that woman, who was a person he had never seen before, he never thought that there would be such a beautiful person in the world , just seeing one side, he seems to be possessed, he can't sleep all night and all night, and he is in a daze all day long.

He thought about the woman when he ate, and thought about it in his sleep.

I was thinking and looking forward to seeing that woman again, even if it was just a glance.

Just one look is enough.

Pulling the ox into the river, sitting on the bluestone and brushing the ox's back, in the past, the work that would make the poor boy whistle and feel pleasant became boring. He stroked the buff's shiny fur and sighed: " Bull, bull, when do you think I can see that girl again?"

It was a question that was said to himself, but the scalper opened his mouth and said, "This is a very simple matter."

He looked at the stunned poor boy, shook his head, and said, "As long as you cut a handful of fresh and tender wheat seedlings for me, make a nest with soft weeds, and feed me with soybeans and eggs tomorrow morning , I can let you see her."

It was ridiculous, but the poor boy did it.

He mowed down the wheat seedlings in his field and found the softest forage in the whole village.

The next day, the scalper pulled him to run quickly, crossed Luoshui, crossed high mountains, and in the middle of a field and a city, he really saw the beautiful girl, after the poor boy returned home , treat scalpers better, almost as friends.

But after seeing the girl, the poor boy misses her even more.

Thinking about the long hair like the night, thinking about the fair face, and the unreachable temperament.

Another day, he couldn't help it, and while brushing the ox, he couldn't help but stroked the ox's back and sighed: "Alas, ox, ox, you are my best friend, can you tell me, what should I do? How can I talk to that beautiful girl more? She is like the bright moon in the sky, I just want to talk to her, then I will have no regrets."

The scalper shook his head and said, "This is a bit difficult, but it's not impossible."

"You want to prepare a bed made of silk and satin for me, and dishes made of meat and wine. Tomorrow morning, you will tie a red cloth to my horns and lie on my back. If you can't open your eyes, then I will be able to take you to find her."

"Then tell her that if you want to not be discovered by the Taoist priests in the world, you must take off her shawl and feather coat and put on human clothes, so that you can become friends."

Silk and satin, good meat and wine, are not something that a poor boy can get, but he still tried his best to do it.

The next day, the ox showed its fangs, ate meat and drank alcohol, like a thief on the mountain. After eating and drinking, the poor boy tied a red cloth to its horns, and then the ox ran along with him, this time The speed was even faster, and the poor boy felt the wind blowing against his face, and he still kept his eyes closed.

He really saw the girl again. Although he stuttered nervously, he said it again as the scalper taught him. The girl was surprised and thanked him politely. He felt satisfied and had no regrets. Eating and sleeping together is almost as deep as siblings.

The girl became friends with him, and occasionally came to visit. The shawl was not taken off, but turned into a small delicate wooden box and carried with him. He had seen it twice.

Time passed slowly, and the beautiful girl was still polite and polite to him.

But slowly some other thoughts grew up in the poor boy's heart, and those thoughts filled his heart like a mass of weeds, he supported the scalper's back, and said, "Big brother, big brother, you and I are like brothers, you Tell me, how can I live with that girl forever? This is my only wish, as long as it can be fulfilled, even if I die, there is no reluctance."

This time the scalper shook his head and said:
"I regard you as a brother, so to tell you the truth, this is impossible, she is not a mortal, but a goddess on the mountain, she has never been to the world below the mountain, so she is curious, but curiosity will always pass, the world will never be In the world she imagined, one day she will return to the mountains."

"Unless you wrap her shawl with the flesh and blood of a monster, she can't find the shawl, and without a shawl, she can't fly back to the mountain, and you stain the feather coat with the monster's flesh and bury it at the door, and she will You can't step out of the threshold, you can't fly or walk, you can only stay in the world, but how is this possible?"

The poor boy sighed and seemed to give up on this unrealistic idea.

In the evening, he invited his eldest ox out to drink and eat meat. There were various delicacies on the table, as well as delicious wine from the big altar. The poor boy toasted the ox and said, "Thank you, eldest brother, for waking me up. Reduced to the point of being obsessed with life, come, drink."

The ox seemed to be very happy, and as before, he ate meat and drank heavily.

He ate the meat of half a pig and three jars of wine, and died of drunkenness.

Then the poor boy chopped off the head of the ox with the big axe that chopped down the tree, and then used the tool of sawing the tree to peel off the skin of the ox. After wiping away his sweat, he looked at the scalper and said, "Isn't there a monster's skin here?"

"Brother, you and I are like siblings, just help me again."

He said that there was new yellow beef to eat, invited the girl to be a guest, and then suggested that he wanted to see the box, and then wrapped the wooden box with blood-stained cowhide while the girl was not paying attention and buried it in the ground , In this way, the goddess who was supposed to be on the mountain was left in this world.

At first, he was very distressed and said that he would help in the search and let the girl temporarily live in the attic of the house.And he went to his brother to deal with it for a few days, but how could he find it?A day passed, a month passed, and still not found, the poor boy began to gradually reveal his true nature.

He actually wanted to do something rude, but the girl refused with a stern expression, and the poor boy didn't even get close to the girl, so he was kicked out by invisible force, fell to the ground, and finally got angry, roared hysterically, and locked the door. , wrapped the feather coat with the monster's bones and flesh, and buried it at the door, so that the girl could no longer come out.

He thought that as time passed slowly, he would change his mind.

But the girl just stared at the sky and said nothing.

Whether he is angry, insulting, pleading, or crying bitterly, he still ignores it, just looks at the sky, the flame of desire almost turns him into a paranoid lunatic, he has made a restaurant here, only outside and first The table was set up on the floor, the girl didn't eat, drink, or speak. When everyone asked, the poor boy said, "This is his wife."

He even adopted two children, which he said were the heirs of his husband and wife.

However, he still couldn't get close to the girl. Time passed, and he grew older and older, and finally one day he died of old age here, and the girl was still the same as before. He fell to the ground and looked at the icy ground. , the sight that never fell on him, desire and obsession burned his heart and lungs, and finally got out of the ground and became angry and crazy.

"You are my wife, you are mine!!"

"Even if I die, even if I die, I will not leave you, no!!!"

………………

Blue candles flickered, and the surroundings were gloomy.

The man in the robe exclaimed:

"It's a very interesting story. It is the prototype of the story of the goddess and the mortal, but there is still one problem."

He looked at the man half-hidden in the dark, and said:

"Why has the poor boy's brother and sister-in-law never appeared? It seems like they have disappeared."

"The second time, where did he get the expensive silk satin overnight, and where did he get the wine and meat that could feed the demons, that meat, there's still so much, it's really just pork Is it? Not... heh, just guessing, after all, the demons are so happy eating."

The Taoist priest paused, looked at the man, and played with his taste:

"And, have you really had a cow?"

"The one who eats meat and performs surgery is really a scalper?"

The man in the shadow stared at the Taoist priest, and the Taoist priest also looked at him. The atmosphere was a little depressed. After a long silence, he muttered slowly:

"It's just a story."

He looked out the window on the mountain and said, "A story that will end in two days."

………………

On the mountain surrounded by the deadly Luoshui, there is a quaint attic.

There is a girl in white in the attic, a fresh air different from the ghost realm is trying to resist the changes in the outside world, but it has been slowly unable to resist, slowly shrinking, when she fails completely, this ghost realm will Fully formed.

The woman looked calm.

She slept for too long, and her power loss was terrifying.

And this era, after all, is no longer the era of gods.

She also accumulated the last trace of strength, at least to be able to perish with the ghosts.At this time, a ripple appeared in the void, as if the night was the water, a stone fell from one place, ripples appeared, a slight surprise appeared on the girl's face, her fingers stretched out, and the ripples touched her fingers.

【Search God】

The message represented by the ancient seal slowly spread out.

"Sili Commander Weiwei, please see the goddess."

"Ancient Crouching Tiger...?!"
