Strange Tales of the Ghosts - Chapter 269

[Chapter 269 Blood Flying Sky (12)]

Xuehu didn’t notice what was wrong with Luo Yan. After saying goodbye to Luo Yan, she flew out of the window and jumped out of the window. She wanted to find the highest point in the city, search the thoughts of some vulnerable people, and find Dunhuang’s location in other people’s brains. .

Finally, she knew the road to the west, turned into a fox, ran west, day and night, when she was about to collapse, she finally came to a place of yellow sand. Nearly evening, the setting sun hangs on the dunes, and at a glance, the yellow sand is removed or the yellow sand. Due to the long running, the water energy in Xuehu’s body was exhausted, so she had to use her keen sense of smell to find the water source, and after walking for a long time, she saw a crescent-shaped spring. Seeing that there is an attic next to the spring, Xuehu didn’t want to scare strangers, so Xuehu turned into a human body and rushed to the Crescent Moon Spring to drink water, which was cool and refreshing. After drinking it, Xuehu felt comfortable. a lot.

At this time, an old woman dressed in a strange dress walked over to Xuehu, looked at Xuehu kindly and said, “Child, are you thirsty?

” Without any precautions, she asked with a smile: ” Auntie , I want to ask, how do you get to Dunhuang?”

“Are you going to Dunhuang? My child.” Then he replied: “This is Dunhuang.” “This is it?” Xuehu looked around, the scenery was good, but the weather was too dry and uncomfortable, thinking about where the little parrot would be, so he blurted out: “Auntie, you Have you ever seen a little girl in green clothes who looks about fifteen or sixteen years old?” “Many people come here every day, and many people leave. I don’t know which girl you are talking about?” The old woman looked She looked at Xuehu with a smile on her face.

Xuehu had no choice but to sigh and ask for nothing. Unfortunately, in a place like this, it’s hard to ask someone. Even if you ask, she’ll answer like an old woman. I don’t know. Sound the soul-suppressing flute, and lead the little parrot out. In this way, Xuehu never moved by the spring, staring at the spring water and the dunes in a daze, and the old woman didn’t leave, just sitting not far from Xuehu.

From time to time, the wind blows, making the snow fox drowsy. When she turned to look at the old woman, she found that the old woman had fallen into the water, and hurriedly ran over and stretched out her hand to pull the old woman up. The old woman was trembling all over. He said to himself, “Hey, I’m old. If it wasn’t for you, I think I would die here today.”

“No, Auntie, you are such a nice person.” When she was concentrating on twisting the clothes, she suddenly felt the three copper coins donated by Luo Yan on her chest jumping. Xuehu felt strange, but when he looked up, he found that the old woman put her hand on his head. The old woman’s face was also very strange, as if she was a little nervous, but after seeing Xuehu’s discovery, she had a kind expression on her face.

“You are really a good boy.”

“Thank you for your compliment.” Xuehu didn’t take it to heart, she just thought that it was getting dark and she had to do things herself. Before that, she wanted to send the old woman who was in the way away. So she asked, “Auntie, it’s getting dark, where do you live? I’ll take you back.”

“No need, child, my house is at the foot of Mingsha Mountain, not far from here.” The old woman replied with a smile , touched Xuehu’s hand with a wrinkled hand, and said with a smile: “It’s you, child, find a place to stay early when it’s dark, it’s not safe to be alone outside.”

“I see, auntie. ”

Well then, I’ll go first, otherwise I won’t be able to see anything when it’s dark.” The old woman said, staggering her feet and walking west with her back to Xuehu, she was almost gone. When the figure was silhouetted, Xuehu heard the old woman’s cry.

“Child, if you don’t have a place to stay at night, come and stay at my house. My house is at the foot of Mingsha Mountain.”

Xuehu stood alone by the crescent-shaped spring and smiled. She was not worried that she would have nowhere to live, but she was afraid that she would not be able to find Xiao Ying. The enthusiasm of the old woman made her feel very warm.

Gradually, the sky became darker, and the sky here seemed to be getting darker slowly. After Xuehu saw the sunset disappearing into the sky, he hid in a place where no one was there, and blew the soul-suppressing flute. The flute wafted in the wind. The sand seemed to have a sense and spun frantically, but until Xuehu finished playing the last note, he didn’t see the little parrot come out.

“What’s the matter? Can’t Xiao Ying hear it?” Xuehu looked at the flute, shrunk it down, and hung it around his neck.

Xuehu won’t leave here if she can’t see Xiao Ying. She is afraid that Xiao Ying will find her when she hears the sound of the flute, so she waits in place. Wait, wait, wait until the stars have climbed up the sky, and the little parrot still doesn’t appear, but waits for another person, a dark shadow, only when the shadow gets closer and closer, Xuehu can see clearly.

“Auntie?”

“Child, why did you come here? I’ve been looking for you for a long time.” The old woman climbed up the sand dunes step by step, as if it was very laborious.

Xuehu hurriedly stepped forward to help and replied, “Auntie, it’s so late, what are you doing with me?” The

old woman gasped and said with a smile, “I see that you are a girl away from home, and I am afraid that you will meet bad people. ”

Auntie…” Although Xuehu is not a human being, she yearns for the warmth of human beings. This old woman reminded her of a farmer from a long time ago, so she was very moved.

The old woman took Xuehu’s hand and walked west without any explanation. She couldn’t pull Xuehu away, so she persuaded: “Child, go to aunt’s house, it’s not safe for you to be outside alone.”

“Aunt…but…” Xue The fox was very embarrassed. She couldn’t tell the old woman that she was waiting for a parrot, and she was a fox, so she had to lie. “You go back first, don’t worry about me, the person I’m waiting for will come after a while.”

“What? Are you waiting for someone here?” The old woman looked at Xuehu.

Xuehu nodded and replied gently: “I’m waiting for my relatives, he said he’ll come pick me up in a while.”

“Silly boy, my aunt advises you not to wait. Look at the sky, it’s getting dark like this. There are hardly any people around here except my house. The tourists who come during the day have already gone back. If he will come to pick them up, I’ve come a long time ago.”

“This…” “Good boy, listen to auntie

, go home with auntie, and it won’t be too late to wait for him here tomorrow.”

Ying, now she has no choice but to go back to the old woman’s home at the foot of Mingsha Mountain with the old woman.

The old woman’s house is a hole carved into the stone wall. It’s not a big place, but there is a place to sleep and cook, but it seems that she is the only one living there. There are not many people. Xuehu sat on the stool and waited for a while. Afterwards, the old woman brought out a bowl of hot food and said with a smile, “Are you hungry? Kid, eat something.”
