After bankruptcy, I relied on metaphysics to become a top wealthy family

As night fell, there was nothing good to eat at Xiaoshuai's house. After one bite, a few people stayed here for the night.

Because of these delicacies, Xiaomei was very enthusiastic about Bai Zhi and the others. She eagerly served tea to several people, and also took out some nuts that she had saved for the New Year at home to entertain the guests.

Xiaomei held her belly, which was already seven or eight months old, and said with a smile.

"Eat more, you're welcome."

Bai Zhi and the others nodded politely.

However, at this time, no one was in the mood to eat.

Bai He frowned and asked curiously as he listened to the increasingly louder calls of wild cats outside.

"Why are there so many cats meowing here?"

Cats are spiritual and evil animals. Their meows sound a bit like babies, which makes people feel creepy.

Xiaomei waved her hand nonchalantly and explained.

"There are a lot of wild cats here, but it's always been like this and we're used to it."

Bai He sighed lowly, always feeling a little scared.

While a few people were chatting, a woman suddenly walked in outside. She looked like she was in her early forties. She stopped as soon as she came in and looked at Bai Zhi and her group.

"Xiao Mei, these are..."

The woman's eyes rolled up and down, looking a little stern.

As soon as Xiaomei saw the woman, she quickly explained as she had said before: "Aunt Li, this is my friend who came to see me."

When Aunt Li heard this explanation, she just paused and didn't ask any more questions. She glanced out of the corner of her eye and saw a lot of expensive-looking things piled on Xiaomei's table.

Aunt Li's eyes lit up, she walked over, picked up the box of bird's nests and looked around.

"My dear, what are these?"

This thing doesn't look cheap.

Xiaomei's face froze, and she immediately pulled the bird's nest away and said perfunctorily: "It's just some small things."

Aunt Li caught a glimpse of the words on it and felt that it seemed a bit familiar. She asked curiously.

"These are all gifts from your friends?"

Xiaomei nodded and admitted.

Aunt Li then turned around and looked at Bai Zhi and the others seriously.

He is well-dressed and looks like a rich man.

When did Xiaomei know such people?

Aunt Li felt itchy in her heart, and her eyes shone when she looked at those things.

Xiaomei couldn't stand Aunt Li's appearance, so she quickly asked: "Auntie, is there anything wrong with you coming to see me?"

When Aunt Li heard this, she seemed to remember something. She clapped her hands and spoke hurriedly.

"A master came to the village today."

As soon as she said this, everyone present was stunned.

Bai He looked at Bai Zhi in surprise, a little confused.

A master is here?

Could it be that the whereabouts of the ancestors were known?

What's going on here?

Xiaomei obviously didn't think about Bai Zhi and the others at all, and asked curiously.

"Grandmaster?"

What does the master do in the village?

When Aunt Li heard this, she also knew that the new daughter-in-law had not been married for a long time and did not know many things, so she explained.

"Isn't the day after tomorrow a day for worshiping the mountain gods? In previous years, masters would come here, but the master who came this year is said to have a particularly powerful background."

Xiaomei was now curious: "What's the origin?"

Aunt Li wrinkled her nose and couldn't explain clearly, so she just said vaguely.

"I don't understand this either. Anyway, he has such a powerful background that he is currently living in the village chief's house."

Bai He listened for a while, but still couldn't help asking: "What is this master like?"

They can't really be ancestors, right?

Aunt Li became interested when she talked about this and explained: "An old man, very impressive, followed by several people!"

Old man?

Bai He turned his eyes and looked at Bai Zhi.

It seems that he is not an ancestor, but who could it be?

Aunt Li sat for a while before getting down to business.

"Xiao Mei, you have to go to the mountain god sacrifice the day after tomorrow. I came here today to tell you in advance that we will go together to see the master tomorrow and do some rituals in advance."

Xiaomei looked panicked and touched her belly, obviously a little nervous.

She pursed her lips and nodded, then agreed.

But at this moment, there was another burst of crazy crying outside, mixed with the cat's meowing, which was miserable.

When Bai He heard this, he remembered the crazy woman he saw at the entrance of the village in the evening.

She rolled her eyes and asked tentatively: "What's going on with that crazy aunt at the entrance of the village?"

When Xiaomei heard Bai He suddenly say this, her eyes froze, but she still explained.

"You guys are talking about Aunt Li. She was there when I got married. I heard..."

"What did you hear?"

Xiaomei's eyes showed a trace of unbearable, and she explained in a low voice: "Aunt Li gave birth to a child decades ago, and then disappeared within a few days, and she couldn't find it no matter how hard she looked. Aunt Li couldn't stand the stimulation, so she went crazy. "

Bai He let out a long sigh and suddenly realized.

No wonder the aunt kept talking about returning the child to her. It turned out that there was such an inside story.

Xiaomei saw a few people with solemn faces, looked at her belly, felt something in her heart, and said with some regret.

"Aunt Li is also a poor person. About twenty years ago, her child disappeared. Later, her family members also died one after another. She was left sitting alone at the entrance of the village with no one to take care of her."

When Bai He heard this, he was a little surprised and asked in a low voice: "What about her food, housing and transportation?"

How can I live alone and as a madman?

Xiaomei also frowned when she heard this, a little suspicious.

"Strange to say, I have never seen Aunt Li go shopping, nor have I seen her leave the village. She has never made a fire or cooked, but she is still living well."

As soon as these words came out, Bai Zhi and the others all started thinking.

No cooking, no going out, nothing to eat…

So how did Aunt Li survive?

It's so weird.

When Aunt Li, who was sitting nearby, heard this, she quickly answered in a low voice.

"What do you know? Once, someone saw her chewing a mouse to death in the house. It was so scary!"

"Dead rat?!" Bai He was shocked, his eyes widened.

very scary!

And this wasn't over yet, Aunt Li continued.

"Not only that, but there are also some dead pheasants, roe deer, etc. In short, this man is very evil. There are always some dead things from the mountains piled up at the door of his house."

Aunt Li paused and then said: "However, she asked for it herself. In the early years, many people in the village gave her food, but she refused to eat it."

When Aunt Li finished speaking, Bai He's shocked little heart trembled.

This is too strange. There are dead objects piled up at the door, as if they were specially sent to Aunt Li?

Who would that be given to?

When Bai Zhi heard this, she looked at Aunt Li with unclear meaning and asked, "She refuses to eat food from the villagers?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone present was a little suspicious.

Yes, why is this?

There is obviously good food, so why eat those things...

When Aunt Li heard this, her eyes flickered and she seemed a little panicked.

She quickly stood up and said to Xiaomei: "Remember to come to the foot of the mountain tomorrow. If you want to worship the mountain god in advance, I will leave first."

As soon as he finished speaking, he left in a hurry.

Bai Zhi and others looked at each other and saw something was wrong.

This Aunt Li is clearly hiding something.

But, what is it that is being hidden?

And what happened to that mountain god...
