My very cool daughter-in-law

This is the bright color that the deserted village has not seen for a long time, and it is completely different from the nature that illuminated the ancestral hall before Sheng Xun.

The scope is wider, and it also has a more violent posture of burning everything down.

The golden-red flames were swallowing, and black smoke was everywhere in the village, and the places engulfed by the flames were crackling, and the scorching and high-temperature flames made the sky near the ground glow red.

When the "black water" on that street surged towards the ancestral hall, and countless faces were wrapped in it and looked directly at the ancestral hall, the opponent's friends and enemies were unknown, and they were menacing.

Sheng Xun quietly blocked Xiao Qiu from the back.

His actions seem to come from instinct, and it has nothing to do with how strong Xiaoqiu is or whether he can easily intercept the "black water" on his own. It is entirely because Sheng Xun's first reaction is to do that when the situation is unknown, so he Done.

Xiaoqiu had just cleaned up a group of strange laughing figures in the rear, and he also heard the movement of the "black water" surging outside the ancestral hall. He turned his head two beats slower than Sheng Xun to check the situation, but he saw the faint guarding him first. back view.

Xiao Qiu vaguely paused for two seconds, a little dazed.

Then he stretched out his hand and grabbed Sheng Xun's wrist, holding him back first, and then looked at the "black water" that had rushed to the main entrance.

The golden light on Sheng Xun's body was too bright, just by standing at the entrance of Xiangtang, the outermost circle of light could spread all the way to the front of Yimen.

The "black water" rushed towards the ancestral hall in a turbulent manner, but after rushing past the main entrance of the ancestral hall, it was blocked by the golden light at the Yimen Gate.

There is a small stream of "black water" diverted from the main stream, trying to turn into a small stream and go around the weak golden light.

But Sheng Xun just had a fight with him in the Xiangtang, Jin Guang was sensitive to filth and resentment, and the "trickle stream" diverted just now, like a water snake, tried to go around the area illuminated by the golden light and meandered for a short distance——

The golden light suddenly strengthened as if it had sensed something.

It was merciless and beat back the black snake head that was poking around.

All the faces in the "black water" let out a sigh.

"Let them pass." Xiao Qiu said after staring at the "Black Water" for a while.

When Sheng Xun stared at the newly added army of grievances ahead, he did not forget the rear. When Xiaoqiu was observing the "Black Water", he twisted the arm of a ghost who was trying to sneak attack with his backhand, and dragged the ghost to the ground while the other party was roaring and screaming. From the side, and then sweep the opponent's back with the thing picked up at the side - the ghost rushing out along the inertia hits the other three who are ready to go not far away.

Do a collective back flip like a bowling ball.

"Got it." Sheng Xun threw away the temporary cue he picked up in his hand - when he threw it away, he realized that it was the crutch of some old ghost, and when he threw it, he hit two ghosts in the other direction.

The crutch was held by him, and there was still a remnant of golden light on it, and the two ghosts screamed when they smashed it.

Sheng Xun didn't ask Xiao Qiu why he let the "black water" pass, he unconditionally believed in Xiao Qiu's judgment on this matter.

After simply responding, Sheng Xun backed away from the door and moved to the side of the ancestral hall to make room for the "Black Water" to enter directly.

Lin Lang's motor nerves are really good. He has not received special training, and his shots are chaotic, but with his excellent athletic skills and a shovel, he has managed to protect himself in the peripheral battle circle, and he can divert a little bit of peripheral The siege of Sheng Xun and Xiao Qiu by ghosts.

"Let's go." Xiaoqiu walked past Lin Lang with a piece of cloth, "Make way."

Xiaoqiu speaks concisely and speaks roughly.

Lin Lang was holding up a shovel to shovel the enemy ghost's head when he was completely quilt away, and was covered in a daze by a cloth dropped from the sky.

Sheng Xun was of course the one who thought of bringing Lin Lang along. He had already seen the power of the "black water" and was not sure if they would cause accidental harm to innocent souls.

When he and Xiao Qiu retreated to the side, he notified the dolls in the dormitory, and asked Xiao Xiong and Andy to pay attention to bringing Li Yingying and Yu Mulan out to join them. When choosing the escape path, he also deliberately chose a path close to Lin Lang .

But it was inconvenient for Sheng Xun to get started with Lin Lang, so Xiao Qiu did it for him.

As a result, Lin Lang felt that he was not picked up by his companions, but was suddenly put in a sack by a friendly army on the battlefield.

But this time there is no time for Lin Lang to complain.

Outside the door of the instrument, "Black Water" seemed to know that the people guarding in front of the main hall were giving way to them, and the golden light that was extremely lethal to them was retreating a little bit with the opponent.

They didn't rush forward when Sheng Xun only moved a few steps away, but they kept silent when they could still see Sheng Xun, and the water formed by the black resentment only surged slowly in place, as if observing etiquette.

Until Sheng Xun's figure disappeared from the front of the main hall, he, Xiao Qiu and his party all entered the side hall to the north of Xiangtang.

In front of the door of the instrument, the faces of people who had been quiet for a while were raised and raised one after another in the "black water".

Behind each face is a slender black stream of resentment, which looks like human faces growing out of the front ends of long black snakes.

They raised their heads high towards Xiangtang and stretched their necks——

In the Xiangtang, the strangely smiling figures who were surrounded by Xiaoxiong and Andy in the dormitory before had no obstacles, and had crossed the partition between the front and back halls and entered the main hall.

"Ancestors are manifesting! It's ancestors appearing!!" The Great Elder was sitting beside the broken plaque of the ancestral hall, and he was still shouting with ecstasy.

The palm pierced by the spike with the power of golden light was still burning, but the elder didn't seem to feel the pain anymore.

With piety and eagerness, he waited for the "ancestors" to come close and sweep away all the despicable people who dared to offend their clan.

He absolutely believed that these figures with sly smiles on their faces were the ancestors that their Sun family enshrined day and night.

"Long, Great Elder..."

On the side, the ghost who was bound with the great elder by a long rope trembled.

He seemed to break free from the shackles of the words and spirits from the high-ranking person at this moment, and regained some of his sanity.

Facing those black shadows with strange smiles that seemed to be exactly the same, the newly promoted manager in the past 20 years only felt flustered.

Are the ancestors and ancestors they have been enshrining really like this?

Is this...really the ancestor of their clan?

The young steward vaguely felt something was wrong, none of these shadows seemed to be able to match up with the people whose names and surnames were recorded in their genealogy.

But soon, he couldn't care less about it.

A black figure with a strange smile stopped in front of the bound two ghosts.

Just like how he treated Li Yingying and Yu Mulan, Heiying first bent his entire upper body, almost folding himself in half, and then turned his head 180 degrees, approaching the young steward backwards.

"Elder... Great Elder!"

"What are you shouting!"

The Great Elder scolded angrily: "This is the ancestor asking for offerings from you, judging whether you are sincere to the clan, it is your honor for the ancestor to ask for something from you!"

"..."

The young steward was silent.

Even if he finally felt that this reasoning was absurd, he couldn't make any further arguments.

Because the black shadow with a strange smile finally clung to him slowly.

The upside-down grinning mouth was close in front of his eyes, and he began to chew on his "offering" tonight.

The treatment of the great elder was a bit higher than that of the young steward, and three black shadows with strange smiles stopped beside him, and they usually bowed towards him from three directions in salute.

Then the three smiling faces turned upside down, looking at him with a full smile——

More grotesque figures were still walking towards the front hall.

Some of them looked around at the ghost of the Sun family in the ancestral hall, and some turned their eyes to Sheng Xun and his party who had retreated to the side hall.

Others suddenly stopped in place.

Ahead, the "black water" finally flowed through the gate of Yi.

It seems that someone blew the horn that only the innocent souls understand.

The army of black grievances crazily rushed towards the wacky laughing figure, they were not afraid of being devoured by that wacky smiling face, and quickly formed a ball with the wacky laughing army.

"These are the people who died at the hands of the villagers before the entire village was sunk into the pool of resentment." In the side hall to the north of the hall, Xiao Qiu looked at the chaos in the main hall and said.

He was talking about those "water flows" that looked like a snake with a human face, and his hand was still on Sheng Xun's wrist.

Sheng Xun stood nearby, touching Xiaoqiu's shoulders, and there was an unconscious intimacy with others.

"Those figures with strange smiles." Sheng Xun cast his eyes on the other party wrestling with the victimized souls, "Are they the Baojiaxians that the Sun family has always enshrined? If so, then they are the ones who have been enshrined by the Sun family, Sun Does the so-called "ancestors and clans" that the elders say do not exist at all?"

This was a question that Sheng Xun had thought about when he was still in the dormitory, but at that time, he was only surrounded by two ladies who were about to get their names back. Their memories were vague and they did not know the internal details of the Sun family.

As for Lin Lang, the other party is still in a special state, and he is not very clear about his own position, and he has no way to help answer questions.

Not to mention the two dolls squatting in the bag.

"It can't be said that it doesn't exist." When facing Sheng Xun, Xiaoqiu turned back to the patient and considerate Haoqiu at home, not the makeshift ghost who would put friendly sacks on the battlefield.

He pursed his lips, and then told Sheng Xun as detailed as possible about the information he got from his end——

"Using sacrifices in a way that hurts others, the Sun family thinks they can accumulate blessings and be blessed by their ancestors, but in fact, their continuous offering rituals can only raise ghosts."

"Sacrificing is supposed to be something for future generations to rest in peace of mind, and for the predecessors to worry about, but the people in Fugao Village regard this as a kind of exchange ceremony, and they are crazy about it, and they are getting more and more greedy."

"Their madness and desire can supply even the most ordinary and neutral souls as evil ghosts, and ghosts born of greed and resentment can in turn affect people."

"As a result, the entire Fugao Village has become more and more sinister, resentment has soaked into the land, and the land that has turned negative has become a pool of accumulated resentment that can naturally nurture evil spirits, and the pool of accumulated resentment in turn affects people's hearts."

Fu Gao Fu Gao, I hope that the blessing will come and climb higher and higher.

But if people are evil and do all kinds of crimes, then they will run away overnight after hearing about the blessings. On the contrary, the filthy people will feel that they hit it off with you and want to visit your door and walk with you from now on.

Xiaoqiu said that the strange smiling figure outside is not only the immortal of the Bao family, but also the ancestor of the Sun family.

Its core is the grandparents of the Sun family, but the resentment that has been sucked in for many years has already made it dirty inside and out.

Now the other party is a combination of the ancestors of the Sun family, the Bao family immortal, and the power of the pool of resentment.

"The villagers are greedy, and the monsters they confessed are also greedy." Xiao Qiu said coldly, "From the day this mixed filth was born, all the villagers who died in Fugao Village will not die well. After they die, they will automatically enter the Resentment Pool as ghosts. Even if you die, you must continue to worship, and continue to recharge the pool of resentment."

And these ghosts thought that the reunion of the whole village after death was the blessing of their ancestors.

In fact, in the eyes of the "ancestors" they enshrine, they are nothing more than a group of long-term workers who can constantly bring in new blood to replenish their own strength.

People who have been tainted by the idea of ​​clan do not see anything wrong in serving "ancestors" after death.

But those who died in vain because of Fugao Village, and those who were dragged into the pool of resentment after the village was abandoned, of course they were not easy to handle by the villagers.

Others like Li Yingying were sunk into the small stream in the village.

The remaining "Yu Mulan" were buried in the courtyard behind the dormitory.

As for Li Yingying and Yu Mulan's deity, they are carefully selected representatives of the two parties with the most rebellious spirit.

Therefore, being pressed in front of the tablet table with hunched backs and being forced to bow and knees every day symbolizes the obedience of the souls of the two parties to the culprit.

"This is what I knew when I touched the coffin lid, put on the clothes, and walked across the bridge." Xiao Qiu's gaze was still on the front hall of the melee.

In the narration, Sheng Xun added all the things he found here, and their materials were combined with each other to restore the general deeds that happened in Fugao Village in the past few decades.

Xiaoqiu felt that Sheng Xun's wrist was slightly scratched. He thought that Sheng Xun wanted to take his hand away, but he was reluctant but let go of his fingers so that someone could take his wrist away.

However, Sheng Xun's wrist just flipped.

The opponent shook his hand back.

In the front hall, the scuffle was still going on. With the help of Xiaoqiu, the undeserved man who was able to break through the shackles was fighting with the culprits.

Sheng Xun and the others did not intervene for the time being, but just watched, and at most occasionally gave some assistance.

Innocent people were first victimized, and then they were buried in the water for so many years.

If they don't let them have a quick fight, without the joy of revenge, the resentment they have accumulated for so long will never be appeased.

This is their revenge session.

"In this village, there are still people who want to break free from the vicious circle and escape from this circular chain." Sheng Xun suddenly said after standing quietly with Xiao Qiu again, with a faint sigh in his voice.

"Huh?" Xiao Qiu hadn't heard Sheng Xun talk about this part before, and he already tacitly agreed that there is no good ghost in this village, and all people named Sun in the village bear the debt of guilt.

He was a little puzzled, and turned his head to look at Sheng Xun.

Sheng Xun's gaze also moved away from the front hall, but turned to the backpack beside him.

——Li Yingying and Yu Mulan, who helped take care of the backpack before, have also gone to the front hall.

They are both victims and deserve this revenge session.

The zipper of the backpack has been properly closed, and the record book and family tree obtained in the dormitory have also been packed into the bag. The spine of the record book has a corner protruding from the side of the bag.

"The fifth house from the head of the village, the head of the household is Sun Lin, his wife Sun Ling, his son Sun Zhimao, and his daughter Sun Xiaozhu."

Sheng Xun glanced at the protruding corner of the bag, and what appeared in front of his eyes was the line he saw when he was helping Yu Mulan look up his name just now.

The paper figurine villager who brought Sheng Xun and Xiaoqiu into the village said that he lives in the fifth house, so just call him Da Mao.

He is the Sun Zhimao in the record book, who died 30 years ago, and the cause of death is marked with "disposition according to family regulations".

Sheng Xun hurriedly browsed through the life of this Sun Zhimao.

The person who wrote it used all kinds of bad words to scold Sun Zhimao for being ungrateful, forgetting his roots, and failing to live up to the kindness of his family's upbringing.

What Sheng Xun saw was a person who had thought about fleeing, how he was dragged back into the quagmire by his people.

Sun Zhimao's parents died young, and he went to school for a few days to study. He wanted to take his sister away from the mountain village and take a different path from most of the people in the clan.

Because of this, the elders of the clan scolded him for forgetting his roots, saying that he was ashamed of his ancestors, and told him that his sister Xiaozhu had been assigned to a steward in the clan before she was born. That's great, instead of his mind wandering to the sky and thinking about some things that are available and not available, he, Sun Zhimao, might as well settle down in the mountain village honestly, serve the steward well, and then get married as soon as possible when Xiao Zhu turns fourteen.

【He was fascinated by the world of flowers and flowers outside, and he wanted to break the marriage contract made by the clan elders, disregarding the face of his parents who died early, and insisted on bringing his younger sister Xiaozhu out of the clan, defying the clan laws and regulations. 】

[XXXX XXX, the man who brought shame to the clan, Sun Zhimao, fled with his younger sister Xiaozhu late at night, and was captured in the back of the village, and dealt with according to the clan rules. 】

[Five years later, on the same day of the same month, Sun Xiaozhu hanged himself, and there are no descendants of this branch. 】

How evil is the human heart when it is evil?

Sheng Xun realized that he still underestimated.

Sun Zhimao is the only one in the ethnographic records who had obvious thoughts of fleeing.

He was "disposed by the family rules", but after his death, he was tied up into a paper man and placed in the surface paper stick mountain village.

Then day after day, those who had wanted to flee the village became the guides for newcomers to the village.

Don't you want to escape?Want to cut seats with the clan?

I tie you here and give you the task of receiving and guiding. You guard the passage into the pool day and night.

Not only did I make you unable to escape for the rest of your life, and you were unable to cut off your seat, you also became the first link in murdering others.

Are you running away?

"...that female registrar." Xiao Qiu spoke after listening for a while, his brows were tightly frowned.

Sheng Xun's expression was the same ugly, but he still squeezed Xiao Qiu's hand reluctantly.

"I guess." Sheng Xun whispered, "She may be Sun Xiaozhu, Sun Zhimao's younger sister."

Sheng Xun only remembered after reading the chronology of the Sun brothers and sisters that the female registrar sang at that time should be an aria from the Peking Opera "Zhong Kui Marries a Sister".

I heard that the Qiaolou has already reported the first watch, Diao Dou is silent and silent, I am an orphan and widow, who knocked on my firewood door?

These two lines are about Zhong Kui who has become a ghost. When he came home late at night and knocked on the firewood door, his sister felt uneasy when someone knocked on the door in the middle of the night, and she dared not recognize her brother.

It's just that in the opera, the elder brother's appearance changes drastically, and the younger sister is hard to recognize even in person.

In addition to the script, the face of the female registrar has been redrawn, and she may not be the same as Sun Xiaozhu back then.

So even if Sun Zhimao and his sister are in the same place every day, they keep bringing new guests to the guest house of the younger sister. However, the brother and sister are opposite each other, and the elder brother can't recognize Sun Xiaozhu. Runaway sister.

"What's going on here?"

In the paper village outside the Lake of Resentment, it seemed as if an underground fire had shot to the ground. The village didn't really burn, but the sky reflected a red light.

The villager Da Mao looked at it with some confusion. Not long after he sent away a group of new guests, he felt as if his mind was clearer and he was able to think about problems better.

While he was confused, he still seemed to be following some kind of instinct to go to his partner, the female registrar, to take a look as well, and ask her if she knew what happened.

"Do you know what's wrong with the village?" Da Mao stepped over the threshold of the guest house and asked in a loud voice.

The female registrar seemed a little strange, she was not sitting in her usual place behind the dilapidated counter, nor was she rocking on the old wooden chair.

"Hey..." Da Mao made a sound, thinking that the other party didn't hear, and wanted to call again.

The female registrar just turned her head at this time—her face was so weird, the left and right sides looked like two faces, and the two sides looked completely different!

"It can be wiped off, it can be wiped off!" The female registrar laughed and cried with two different faces.

Villager Da Mao was taken aback.

He didn't have time to think about why ghosts are still scared, he took a step back on conditioned reflex, and then stepped forward hesitantly: "What's going on? What's wrong with you?"

"My face." The female registrar looked at him and said this first.

Then suddenly, two lines of tears flowed down from different sides of her face.

"Look at my face!" The female registrar, Sun Xiaozhu, shouted at her brother, "Look at my face, brother!"

The author has something to say: a few seconds late, today's little red flower is far away from me [tears
