Chapter 96 The Goddess
The prison is very dark, there is no sunlight in the first place, and after nightfall, it is so dark that you can't see your fingers.I curled up in the corner with my eyes closed. Although it’s spring, the night is still very cold, especially in this damp and dark prison. There is no quilt, and there is no wall in front of the cell. It is a fence made of rough wood, and the cold wind suddenly blows in. , The clothes on my body can't resist the cold at all.I rubbed my hands, which were a little numb from the cold, and only when I felt my hands, I wrapped my arms tightly, shivering.I smiled wryly, it seems that this time in prison is completely different from the one in Beijing, Wei Lanxue, with her thin body, can survive here for a few days.Xiaohong and the others should know the news by now, right?I don't know if I can wait until they come to see me?Everything that happened today was too sudden, and when I was taken into custody, I had no time to explain to An Yuanxi. I wanted him to tell Xiaohong to find out the jade finger that Master Yun gave me before, and try to go to the treasure house. Xiangshifu is looking for friends of Master Yun.

In fact, when I was still in Xiuzhuang, I had already made up my mind. The reason why I didn't make a decision immediately was because I still had some taboos about this Master Yun who had only met twice.After all, I don't know him very well, and I don't know his details, so I rashly approached him. Can his friend come up with such a large sum of money to help me?

But now even if I want to ask Mr. Yun's friends for help, I have to wait until Xiaohong comes to visit the prison before I can bring the news out.I rubbed my stiff arms, thinking that it was impossible to fall asleep in such an environment, but I still fell into a light sleep in the middle of the night, but my sleep was extremely restless, and I was awakened immediately by the slightest sound.Even in such a half-dream and half-awake state, I still felt that the night had passed very long, and I only prayed that the sky would be brighter soon so that the cold feeling would be driven away.However, the sky never shines on me, it still runs in a calm and orderly manner, just like when I used to help my mother to keep the coffin, I knelt in front of the coffin, my legs were so numb that I couldn’t feel it, I only prayed that the sky would not light up, as long as Before dawn, my mother would still be lying in front of my eyes, just lying down and falling asleep, so I really felt that this day would never be bright.

However, the sky will be bright after all, the sky will be bright, the earth will turn, and they will never change their direction for a certain person.The light in the prison gradually became stronger. After staying in the dark environment for a long time, even a little light would feel extremely bright.The jailer came with breakfast, walked to the door of our prison, passed two broken earthen bowls through the rough wooden fence, and put them on the ground. In each bowl were two black dough or rice balls. Another bowl of cold water came in.The old woman sitting across from me, who had not moved all night, immediately rushed up, grabbed a bowl and held it in her arms, grabbing the black stuff and gobbling it up.I hesitated for a moment, went forward to pick up another bowl, sat back in the corner, picked up the black thing and looked at it, it looked like a steamed bun, but I don’t know what kind of flour it was made of, it was black Yes, rough, with a strange smell.

I am really hungry.I tried to take a bite and immediately frowned.God, what is this made of?It is hard and rough, and the mouth is filled with mud like mud, bitter and rancid.I really wanted to show that I was not picky about my food, and swallowed it, after all, it was not my turn to pick and choose, but I swallowed it reluctantly, and suddenly felt nauseous, and almost spit out the overnight meal.I sighed, put the black mantou back into the bowl, and stared at it in a daze, mantou, mantou, my stomach can bear it, and when I can't bear it, I will swallow you again.

While I was in a daze, the old woman sitting opposite me suddenly rushed in front of me, snatched the two black steamed buns from my bowl, as if she was afraid that I would snatch them from her, and stuffed both steamed buns into her mouth at once. During the day, I stared blankly at her performance of swallowing steamed buns. She put her hands over her mouth and stuffed the steamed buns in desperately. Bai, opened his mouth wide, and spewed out a few mouthfuls of steamed bun crumbs, his face suddenly turned purple, and all of a sudden there was air in and no air out.

I was taken aback. Looking at it like this, what else could it be if I was choking on a steamed bun?I quickly squatted down beside her, and helped her take out the steamed buns stuck in her mouth, and even took out a few big ones. Seeing that her expression eased up, I hurried to fetch the bowl of cold water, and helped the old woman's neck, She poured it into her mouth and drank a few mouthfuls. The old woman choked, and I breathed a sigh of relief and asked softly, "Are you all right?"

Her eyeballs rolled, a trace of impatience flashed across her face, she pushed her away from me and sat up, I saw that her complexion was normal, and she was too lazy to meddle in other business, and was about to get up, but the old woman grabbed her arm, and I saw her Her complexion was pale, and she stared at my neck. I was startled, and subconsciously touched my neck. When I touched the piece of black dragon jade, the old woman's complexion suddenly changed, her whole body trembled, her lips trembled, and she spit out a few words that I couldn't hear. From the words I understand: "The Pleiades Reincarnation..., The True God of Chaos..., The Pleiades Reincarnation, The True God of Chaos..."

I looked at her inexplicably: "What did you say?"

She didn't seem to hear my question, she just stared at the black jade on my neck, and kept repeating these two words, with a strange brilliance in her eyes: "The real god manifests a spirit, God helped my dragon mother... "Speaking, as soon as I grabbed the black jade around my neck, I wanted to tear it off. I was pulled forward by her, and my neck was so painful that I was so angry that I broke away from her: "Do you want to see me? What are you doing?" It turns out that the so-called prison bully is real, this old woman dares to grab things in this big prison, can she pretend that I am a newcomer?
She seemed to be stunned too, seeing that the jade could not be removed, her expression changed again, and she said in a daze: "How could this be? How could the Pleiades be the Lord of Jade..., the host of the true god..."

The hairs on my back stood on end, her crazy appearance made me a little scared, I quickly backed away, shrank to the corner, stared at this crazy old woman with wide eyes vigilantly, cold sweat dripped from my forehead come out.God, this old woman is not a lunatic, is she?I don't know if she has violent tendencies?I shrank back to the corner of the wall, looked around, caught a glimpse of a broken brick not far away, touched it quietly with my hand, grabbed the half of the broken brick in my hand, and squeezed it tightly, this old woman If she pounces on me again, I'll suffocate her.

But she didn't move any more, she just sat there in a daze, I don't know how long, she moved, turned her head and looked at me, I squeezed the brick tightly, and found that although the old woman's face was still weird, her eyes were not. No matter how chaotic, everything is clear.She looked me up and down coldly, then snorted softly, "Who are you?"

I stared at her warily and didn't answer. She sneered when she saw that I was facing an enemy, and said in a strange way: "You think I won't know if you don't tell me. You are already a dead person, you have a soul, no I know what kind of disaster it is..."

I was shocked.Staring at her in astonishment, she..., she actually..., unexpectedly..., my mind suddenly became confused, who is this old woman?She actually knew that I was a resurrected soul?I stared at her closely: "Who are you?"

"Me?" The old woman sneered, stroked the messy hair on her forehead, raised her neck, and said proudly: "I am the famous dragon mother-in-law in Cangdu City. As soon as my dragon mother-in-law comes out, the world will be peaceful..."

"Old woman, you are bragging here again, don't forget how you got in!" A male voice suddenly sounded from outside the wooden fence, upon hearing this, the old woman fell silent resentfully.I turned around and saw that it was the jailer standing outside the fence with Xiao Hong and An Yuanxi, and what the jailer said just now was exactly what the jailer said.Xiaohong grabbed the wooden fence, tears welling up: "Girl..."

Surprised and delighted, I stood up and rushed over: "Xiaohong..." Seeing that she was still crying, I smiled and said, "Silly child, why are you crying..."

The jailer said to us, "Speak quickly if you have anything to say, it won't take long."

"Thank you, brother." An Yuanxi stuffed some broken silver into the jailer's hand, and the jailer left satisfied.An Yuanxi turned her head and looked at me with deep eyes: "Are you... are you okay?"

"It's okay, how's the family going? Jinsha is scared? Grandpa Fu must be worried too..." I said worriedly, when Xiaohong heard it, tears came out again: "Girl, take care of yourself , what time is it, still worrying about others..."

"They are all very well. They were all clamoring to come and see you, but only two people can come in at a time in this prison." An Yuanxi said.

"Girl, what should I do now? Yesterday the government has closed down the embroidery village and the hot pot restaurant, saying that they want to liquidate the assets..." Xiaohong held my hand tightly and sobbed, "They also said that if the girl doesn't come out For money, we are going to sell the girl to a kiln, girl, should we write a letter to inform Brother Wei? Maybe we can find Mr. Yue..."

"Xiao Hong!" I interrupted her, she always knows how to measure, but now she is so anxious that she can't cover her mouth like this?Seeing her frightened face, I softened my heart: "It's too late to tell my elder brother, Xiaohong, go back and find that emerald jade finger in my makeup box, and then go to Baoxiang Restaurant to find the shopkeeper there. can help me."

She stopped crying, and a gleam of joy appeared on her face: "Miss, you mean the jade finger left by Master Yun? By the way, the mistress saved his life, so it should be feasible to ask him for help now."

Whether it works or not depends on how God arranges it.After all, it is up to man to plan and make things up to heaven.I smiled lightly, then turned to look at An Yuanxi: "The workers in the shop are all gone? How are the masters and servants of the Mo family arranged?"

Now that I'm down, and they have lost their jobs, I'm afraid they won't be able to stay in Cangdu for long.Thinking of Mo Sang, I was a little dazed, An Yuanxi looked at me quietly, and said softly: "They are still living at Grandpa Fu's house, Mr. Mo has no intention of leaving, he said he is continuing to find work in Cangdu , don't worry..."

The jailer came over and yelled, "Hey, it's time! Are you done talking? Go away!"

"Girl..." Xiaohong held my hand tightly and looked at me with tears in her eyes. I whispered: "People from the government come, you just need to say that you are doing things for me, and it has nothing to do with me. They It shouldn't be hard for you..."

"Girl?" Xiaohong's eyes widened, and I turned to look at An Yuanxi: "Remember, don't make this girl stupid!"

"Go, go!" the jailer yelled impatiently, and pushed An Yuanxi and Xiaohong, An Yuanxi turned his head and took a deep look at me, I looked at him earnestly, he nodded heavily, and I breathed a sigh of relief .

I'm afraid that Xiaohong will be stubborn and tell the people in the government that she is my sister. If Master Yun can't help, she will really be reduced to selling her body to pay off her debts. At least Xiaohong will not suffer with me.

The two of them were taken out by the jailer. I stood leaning against the wooden fence, dazed in a daze. Is my fate really pinned on that emerald jade finger? "Everyone is gone, what are you looking for?" The old woman's sinister voice sounded behind me. I turned my head and saw her looking at me angrily. Someone is coming to see you."

I went to the corner and sat down, glanced at her, and smiled slightly: "Why, no one came to see you? How long have you been here?"

"Hmph! Originally, I had an apprentice, and I enjoyed some blessings with me. I didn't expect that kid to run away as soon as I was caught." The old woman said angrily, "What a white-eyed wolf, the old woman just feed me A dog is better than feeding him..."

"How did you get in?" I thought of the jailer's words, and then thought of the old woman's identity, and I vaguely guessed in my heart that this old woman made a living by asking gods to catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits, isn't she a witch?Most of this profession is about pretending to cheat people's money. The jailer said that she was bragging about keeping people safe.

Sure enough, the sorceress rolled her eyes, snorted softly, and didn't answer my question, and I didn't think I was disobedient, so I continued to say to her: "Why did you say that I was a dead person just now?" She might really know something, from her Seeing Heilongyu's weird expression and talking like crazy, maybe, she really knows something about ghosts and ghosts. If there is a psychic to help me find the way to the underworld, can I get some news about Mingyan?
