Chapter 1: The bride price of the fox fairy

18 years ago, a rare heavy snow fell in our small village, and the mountains were covered by heavy snow, and everything in sight was covered with white snow. I was born at that time, and my parents left behind me as soon as I was born. I, I have never seen them since I was a child, and I have never heard of them.

I have a grandpa who treats me very well, but he keeps secrets about my parents and never mentions a word about them in front of me. He just raised me up with painstaking efforts alone.

Grandpa is the Mr. Baishi in the village. Our village is surrounded by mountains, and it is inconvenient to get in and out. All the funeral affairs in the village are handled by my grandfather. Therefore, Grandpa has a high prestige in the village, but he often comes into contact with the dead. The villagers I am in awe of my grandfather, and I don’t want to deal with him too much. As a grandson, I have also been affected. In addition, I don’t have parents around, and people in the village discriminate against me somewhat. There are no friends in the village.

When I was ten years old, there was another heavy snowfall here. Grandpa said that this heavy snowfall was exactly the same as the heavy snowfall 18 years ago. The harvest in the village was not good that year, and the mountains were blocked by heavy snow. Many villagers had no food rations , which includes our family.

As a white man, my grandfather only supported his family with the meager income from exorcising ghosts and doing white things. He did not cultivate, and the usual rations were bought from the villagers. When there was a shortage of food, the villagers hid their lives No matter how much money Grandpa Ren paid for the rations, he would not sell them.

That year, my grandpa and I ate everything we could eat, but the heavy snow outside was still going on, and it seemed to be getting bigger and bigger. I remember my grandpa said to me at that time: "Boy, I'm afraid we have to explain Here it is."

At that time, I was still young and didn't understand the concept of death at all. I just remembered that I was hungry and didn't fall asleep all night. That feeling is still unforgettable to this day.

The next morning, just after dawn, I heard a light knock on the door. Grandpa opened the door, but saw two freshly dead game outside. Grandpa frowned when he saw the food. Through the crack of the door, I clearly saw two snow-white yellow skins standing on the snow not far away. My eyes met their small eyes, and they seemed to be smiling at me.

Those two game meats helped my grandpa and I get through the difficult time, but whenever I asked about the kind-hearted people who gave things, my grandpa kept silent. At that time, I was young, and it didn't take long for me to forget about it.

Life in the small mountain village was very ordinary. At that time, some of us little kids liked to go to the old tree at the end of the village to listen to an old man telling stories. When I was very curious and had nowhere to vent my energy, I was happy to listen to his scary stories.

I remember the old man told a story that kept me awake that night. It was about a vixen on the mountain.

It is said that a long time ago, people in our village lived on hunting, and the men in every household were good hunters. It is said that one day, a pair of brothers in the village went hunting with everyone. It is strange to say that the weather that day was very cloudy. Terrible, the game on the mountain did not know where to hide, and the people in the village went around the mountain without finding anything. Coupled with the weird weather, they all packed up their things and hurried home. The two brothers refused to give up. They were filial sons in the village. Their mother was sick in bed, waiting for them to earn medical expenses to go back to continue their lives. If they returned empty-handed today, their mother's medical expenses would be gone.

So the two brothers discussed it and decided to take the risk and go deeper into the mountain, maybe there may be no gain.

They are all rough men, and they do what they say, and even if they walk to the depths of the mountain, the day becomes darker as they go, as if it is dusk, and the surrounding plants and trees look more eerie.

Strange to say, after they went to the depths, they saw a lot of game. With their superb shooting skills, they quickly filled the whole cloth bag. The two brothers were very happy, but they also felt that the place was very tight. Then they discussed going back quickly, but when they turned around, they were startled. Guess what they saw?

A woman who picked mushrooms in a basket, that woman looked like a fairy descended to earth, the woman was not afraid to see the two brothers, so she said that her family lived here, and she would invite the two brothers to sit in her house and exchange pleasantries. The boss looked at the woman more and more pleasing to the eye, but the second child felt that this woman was weird. How could she, a weak woman, live here in this deep mountain and old forest?

While the second child was thinking about it, the eldest child seemed to have changed into a different person and rushed towards the woman...

The two brothers did not return all night, and people in the village searched all night but failed to find them. The second brother did not come back from the mountain until the next day, and the woman followed him, but the elder brother disappeared. Regarding what happened in the mountain, the second brother did not know Don't talk about it, since then, the second child has become taciturn, and he married that woman soon.

But the matter was far from over. Not long after, inexplicable deaths began in the village. The dead were all strong men, and the death conditions were extremely miserable, as if their flesh and blood had been sucked dry by something. They were all panicked, so they invited a Taoist priest, and the Taoist priest realized that the woman brought back by the second child was not a good thing at all, but a vixen, and the second child had already been sucked dry by the vixen. , became a shell.

The Taoist chased away the vixen, and then said that the vixen was proficient in the art of charm, and specially seduced men at night, and then drained the man's energy. Go down to the altar, offer sacrifices to the mountain god, and then stop going up the mountain to hunt and kill, so that you can be safe.

Since then, no one has hunted in the village, but some people still occasionally see a snow-white fox cruising around the village in the middle of the night, lurking in the middle of the night, and the pair of red eyes are full of menacing light.

After listening to this story, for a long time, I always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at me in the dark. No matter where I went, I felt like I was being spied on. It can be said that the story of the old man is my childhood. shadow.

Time flies, and it's my birthday in a blink of an eye. On that day, I thought I could have an ordinary birthday, but I didn't expect that something completely broke the peace of the village and completely changed my life.

I clearly remember that that night, after celebrating my birthday with my grandfather, I went to bed early, but because I was so happy, I didn't fall asleep until the second half of the night. During this time, the villagers were sleeping soundly. At this time , A very light knock on the door came into my ears, duk-duk-duk.

This voice seemed extremely abrupt in the quiet night. I thought to myself, who could it be in this time period? Although I was very reluctant, I got up and opened the door, but there was no one in sight except the darkness .

While I was puzzled, something touched my leg. I looked down, and a yellow-skinned face instantly filled my sight. The fur on his body exploded from fright, and he quickly took a few steps back into the room.

At the same time, the light in the room was turned on, and grandpa was already standing behind me. If I met a savior, I quickly hid behind grandpa. Grandpa raised his right hand to protect me, and hid the mahogany sword in his left hand. He looked vigilant. , and said to Huang Pizi in a very polite tone: "Why did the Daxian visit the place late at night?"

The yellow-skinned child looked straight at me, as if smiling at me. Although I was afraid, I still peeked at the yellow-skinned child with half of my face exposed. I always felt like I had seen it somewhere.

"Today I report good news but not bad news, because I have great news to share with you." Huang Pizi's voice was very thin, with a hint of neither man nor woman.

"Our father and I have never had any contact with Daxian. Why did Daxian visit suddenly?" Grandpa asked with a frown.

"How can it be said that there is no intersection? Didn't we meet each other eight years ago? At that time, I was sending a dowry for my fox fairy, do you remember?" For some reason, the smile on Huang Pizi's face always made me feel Very uncomfortable.

"Daxian, is it too much for you to say that it is a dowry?" Grandpa's face darkened suddenly, and he said in a deep voice.

Huang Pizi waved his hand and said: "Not too much, not too much, my fox fairy has always done things fairly, besides, my fox fairy didn't force you, the dowry is placed at your door, since you accepted it, do you still want to admit it?"

Grandpa frowned, seemingly unable to refute, and then said: "Then what does the Great Immortal mean by coming today?"

"It's said to be a dowry, don't you understand? Today is your young master's birthday, and the time has come. My fox fairy has already taken a fancy to your young master. The dowry was given first eight years ago, and now we can get married as soon as possible! "

"Absurd, people and monsters have different paths, how can they get married? How can they be together?" Grandpa said angrily.

"It's not absurd, it's not absurd. My fox fairy has always acted vigorously. She said she wanted to marry your son, so your son must marry her. I'm just a messenger. You must remember that at this hour seven days later, you are ready to marry her." Dowry gift, eight sedan chairs to go to the mountain to marry my fox fairy, everything must be done properly, my fox fairy has a bad temper, if you offend her, you know the consequences." Huang Pizi's last sentence was threatening, and after finishing speaking, it Regardless of our grandfather and father, we turned around and walked into the thick night.

The cold wind rushed in through the gate, and grandpa stood at the gate with frost on his face, and then he sighed as if he was discouraged, he turned and looked at me and said, "Little Mo, it seems that we two can't escape now." gone."

"Grandpa, I don't want to marry that vixen." I grabbed Grandpa's hand and begged, thinking of the story told by the old man at the end of the village, I felt a great sense of rejection towards that fox fairy.

Grandpa frowned, I know he loves me, and he doesn't want me to go into the mouth of a tiger, but how can he fight that old goblin as a little white man?Grandpa didn't speak for a long time, and my heart became cold.

After a while, Grandpa seemed to have suddenly thought of something, stood up all of a sudden, picked up the tools he used to do on weekdays, and said to me: "Little Mo, stay at home today, don't go anywhere, I'll be back soon." After speaking, before I could ask, Grandpa opened the door and left.

Chapter 2: Lingering overnight

As soon as grandpa left, the whole world seemed to be quiet. The darkness outside the house was like a devil trying to swallow people. The fear instantly grabbed my heart. I quickly fastened the doors and windows, then ran to the bed and curled up under the covers.

I dare not turn off the lights in the room, because the light can always bring people a sense of security.The air was strangely quiet, I huddled into a ball, tossed and turned but couldn’t fall asleep, I don’t know how long it took, and suddenly I felt someone walking up and down in front of my bed, their steps were very light, unhurried ,Da da da.

Slowly, slowly, it got closer and closer to the head of my bed, and then stopped. I grabbed the quilt tightly and didn't dare to move. At that time, the sense of fear almost occupied my entire consciousness. That kind of danger On the side, the feeling that death was slowly approaching me almost crushed my rationality. At a certain moment, I thought to myself, let me die, and then I threw off the quilt violently.

Feeling hostile in my heart, I closed my eyes and screamed strangely, pounding the air in front of me, but when I opened my eyes, the room was brightly lit, and there was no figure or anything there.I suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, blaming myself for scaring myself, but suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I caught a glimpse of a white shadow flashing across the glass of the window, and I felt a lump in my heart.

The white shadow passed by, I wasn't sure if I was dazzled, so I rubbed my eyes hard, and when I was about to see the window clearly, the light bulbs in the room flickered for a moment, and then they all went out. A sense of fear exploded in my heart for a moment, followed by an extremely sharp cry.

Once again, I hid under the quilt helplessly. The darkness outside was like a giant beast, and only this small quilt could bring me a sense of security.

That night, I didn't know how I fell asleep. When I woke up, it was still dark. I rubbed my dim eyes, and suddenly a voice sounded in my ears. The meaning of ecstasy, seems to be whispering softly in my ear, a woman is calling my name.

Hearing this woman's voice made me feel numb in my heart. At that time, I actually thought that I would not regret it even if I died for the owner of the voice. Then I got up in my sleepy eyes, opened the door, and walked into the endless darkness. middle.I completely forgot about the fright before going to bed, completely unafraid of the darkness outside, followed the guidance of that voice step by step, and walked up the mountain.

Soon I came to a completely unfamiliar place, where the trees were gloomy and looked eerie. Directly in front of me, a house was built there abruptly. The house looked a bit dilapidated, but the lights inside were brightly lit.

The voice guided me to the door of the house, and the vermilion door of the house creaked and opened by itself. The moment the door opened, a burst of cold air rushed to my face, and I couldn't help shivering.

I stepped into the house. The inside of the house is a bit old, with gray tones everywhere, in stark contrast to the red lanterns hanging everywhere, revealing an unspeakable weirdness.There was no one in the house, it was empty and the temperature was a bit cold.

After I walked in, the door of the house closed itself again, completely isolating me from the outside world, a trace of fear finally rose in my heart, but at this moment, the voice whispered in my ear again, and I was like a pull string Like a puppet, he involuntarily walked towards the room with the lights on.

Walking to the door, the woman's voice came from inside: "My lord, I've been waiting for you for a long time, come in!"

Just hearing this crisp sound, my stomach was filled with heat. Which man in the world can stop this sound that implies glances?I raised my hand and pushed open the door. Immediately, a scent of rouge came to my nostrils. I couldn't help but take a deep breath, and my chest was suddenly hot.

I walked into the house cautiously. The house was very warm, and the candlelight was blurred. It was decorated everywhere and exuded the fragrance of a woman. At this time, a woman's delicate smile came from inside, and the voice said to me: "Young master, this is to see the house." , or came to see me? It made me wait for a long time, and I didn’t come in quickly.”
