When I heard what she said, I showed a surprised look on my face and praised: "Auntie, you really know everything. Please tell me in detail, including some of the most forbidden places in the village, and what else

Taboos and stuff like that.”

My aunt became even more proud when she saw me like this: "I'm telling you, I don't know about taboos. I just heard that there used to be a fox fairy temple in Hujia Village, which worshiped the fox fairy. The fox fairy protected the village, but you haven't seen it.

In our deep mountains, Hujia Village is the richest."

"Yes, yes, I found it."

"In Hujia Village now, there is nothing left except evil sects. But I advise you to leave the village as soon as you step on the medicine. Don't be curious about the Fox Fairy Temple. There are gains and losses in this kind of thing. Look at the current state of the village

, I must have offended the Xian family. Okay, little girl, I can’t say much. You can figure it out yourself."

I got off the motorcycle and had to walk the rest of the way by myself.

Hujiacun was originally located in the mountains, and there were woods and weeds everywhere as far as the eye could see. The weather suddenly turned from sunny to overcast, making it even more gray and unclear.

I always remembered that my grandma’s house was in the middle of two adjacent villages. I didn’t expect that the families in the neighboring village had already moved away.

The fog was lingering and the visibility was extremely low. It should have been noon, but it was almost the same as night.

Finally, I saw the road sign for the village.

There is a square stone with three words carved crookedly on it: Hujiacun.

Going further is the village. Grandma's house is outside the village, so you have to walk in from another path.

Hehe~

I was about to run to my grandma's house when I suddenly heard sounds in the grass, rustling, and a few faint laughter.

I believe that things should be of no concern to myself, and I don't have any extra curiosity to pay attention to things that I shouldn't pay attention to. I just want to go home as soon as possible and tell grandma everything I have encountered recently.

I quickened my pace, but the voice behind me followed me closely.

When I stop, it stops; when I run, it runs; when I go fast, it goes fast; when I go slow, it goes slow.

Finally, I couldn't stand it anymore.

He stopped and shouted into the grass: "Can you stop following me!"

There was no movement in the grass.

I still didn't dare to walk over and take a look, but turned around and ran away.

This time the sound behind me disappeared, and just when I saw the fence in the distance, a figure flashed in front of me.

The man standing in front of me was two heads taller than me, with soot on his face. He stared at me sinisterly, and then laughed "hehe".

The person following me on this road was him, looking a little silly.

I always feel that he looks familiar, but I can't remember who this person is.

"Who are you? Why are you following me?" I looked at the person opposite me warily. One hand had already reached into my bag and tightly held my homemade chili water.

"Hehe." He still smiled charmingly.

Just when I thought he was about to pounce on me, he turned around and ran into the village, shouting: "The fox wife is back! The fox wife is back!..."

Maybe the sound was too loud, and grandma heard the noise outside, so she ran out with a dog.

"Sheshe! Sheshe, are you back?" Grandma hurriedly walked out of the house.

"Grandma! I'm back." I also ran towards her.

The big black dog suddenly stood in front of grandma. It roared at me crazily and drooled all over the floor.

"Old Hei, don't bark." Grandma scolded the big dog. It obeyed Grandma's words, but I saw disgust in its eyes.

"Grandma." I wanted to get closer, but the big black dog wouldn't let me. Finally, grandma asked me to wait outside the door.

He took out a handful of cypress branches from the house and kept sweeping them over my body, mumbling something. I felt that my body was very clean, but the dead skin from the cypress branches stuck to my clothes.

"Grandma, what are you doing? My clothes are clean."

Grandma didn't say anything, but she swept me a few more times, and finally lit the branch with a match and asked me to step over it.

Although I didn't know what to do, I still obeyed it obediently.

Strangely enough, when I stepped over the fire ball, it seemed that the sky had become brighter and the big black dog stopped biting me.

"Grandma." I hugged grandma and asked, "How are you lately?"

"Okay, Sheshe, why are you back now?" Grandma pulled me and looked around to make sure I wasn't injured. Then she kept pulling me into the house and hanging the basket from the beam.

He took out two eggs. "I'll make egg custard for you."

"Grandma, I encountered some strange things. I also saw dead people, and cats talking... and a fox." I said incoherently, and I didn't know if grandma understood.

When I mentioned the fox, grandma's pupils suddenly shrank, she put the eggs in her hand back into the basket, grabbed the black dog's collar, tied it with a rope and handed it to me.

"What happened to grandma?"

"You come with me to find Mrs. Shu first. This matter is too serious." She took my hand, grabbed the basket of eggs and walked out of the house.

Grandma took me into the village. When I crossed the ditch, I still felt a little uncomfortable.

That ditch was like a 38th parallel, completely cutting off the connection between me and Hujia Village. I couldn’t remember how many years I hadn’t been to the village before.

"Grandma, the village won't let us in..."

"I can't control that much. You are grandma's granddaughter. If nothing happens, grandma will be here and she won't let you be wronged."

I was almost dragged away by my grandma. It was dinner time and there were very few people passing by in the village.

Two women saw grandma and greeted her with a smile.

But after we left, I didn't know if it was an illusion, but I seemed to hear the sound of spitting.

Grandma pulled me to park in front of a small tile-roofed house. The moss-covered roof formed a sharp contrast with the surrounding small Western-style buildings with tiles.

But it seems that now is not the time for me to think about the gap between the rich and the poor. Grandma knocked on the door hurriedly and shouted: "Po Po Shu! Po Po Shu!"

The door creaked open, and a woman who looked to be in her seventies stood in front of the door, looking at my grandma and me with disgust. She wore a red and black cloak on her head, and her eye frames were deeply sunken.

There are strange patterns tattooed on his face.

"Shu Po, please save my Ningshe, that fox has found her. She is only eighteen years old, please save her."

Mother Shu looked at me coldly: "I can't help you with your family's affairs."

Grandma's pleading tone was a little lower: "Shu Po, please save her, I think your mother was sick at the beginning..."

"I just knew that our family owed you a favor, so I gave Lao Hei to you. When it comes to repaying a favor, our family has fully repaid it."
