I was picking up fluff in Liaozhai

"It seems that you know something." Bei Chen just said.

The old lady's expression changed immediately, and she was about to close the door behind her back, "I don't know, I don't know anything."

But the door was blocked by Bei Chen: "Old lady, that thing has already come out. Besides killing the little grandson of the Lin family and Huang Nan's family, it also killed many people from another village. If we hadn't stopped it in time, I'm afraid They directly wiped out the village."

The old lady's face became even more ugly, "What, what? So many people died? Impossible, impossible, we have good prayers, we have good prayers."

"Old lady, I'm afraid you haven't figured out whether that thing is the Empress Dowager or something else, but as far as I know, he should be more than just the Empress Dowager you all worship." She pushed the door open, ""

"Shall we go in and talk?"

The old lady was still hesitating, but seeing that the young man was so determined, she walked in hesitantly.

"You guys know how to bully me, the old lady, why don't you ask other old men and old ladies in the village? Why don't you see me living alone, with no children." Aggrieved and sad, he walked in, "In the past, the old lady I also have a daughter, and my daughter is so handsome, who doesn't know how good-looking my daughter is?"

"Before she got married, she was the most handsome girl in the village. She was wearing new clothes, and her little face was three points more beautiful than peach blossoms. Everyone envied us, mother and daughter, because my daughter was going to marry in the city. And it's a big city, the other party's parents are both officials, and the boy is a soldier, he knew my daughter when he came to help, and the two of them will be fine."

"Before I got married, I took my daughter to pay homage to Empress Xi. Everything was fine, but my daughter and son-in-law also said that they would take me over to enjoy the blessings together after staying for a while." Then, he poured two bowls for the two of them. boiled water.

"But that's too far away from me, and my daughter also reports good news but not bad news." The old lady suddenly turned bitter when she said this. When I went there, I didn’t even see the bones, so they burned it directly.”

"I don't believe it. My daughter has a very tough personality. How could she jump off the building for no reason? Just sneak around and ask the neighbors."

"Hmph, so it turns out that that man is not a soldier, nor is he going to marry my daughter. That family asked someone to go to a remote village to find a girl to come back to cheat marriage, in order to marry their stupid son. And that family also has an older brother , Look at my daughter's good looks... My daughter was going crazy at the time, she wanted to escape, but she was tied up. No one cares about the family with its own house."

"Hmph, they all deserve to die, they all deserve to die." The old lady babbled nervously about the past.

"Then I rushed home immediately and paid homage to Empress Xi. Empress Xi protects the married girls in the village. As long as she accepts bullying, she will help avenge her."

Beichen saw the old lady's resentful and cheerful expression, feeling a little uncertain: "So that family is dead?"

"Dead, they are all dead, and those who refuse to be saved are also dead." The old lady smiled sinisterly, "No one is alive, all of them are dead. No one is alive, old or young."

At this time, Beiwei handed Beichen the mobile phone, and there was a fire news from decades ago.

The fire was said to be an old saying in the circuit, the fire was extremely large, and the surrounding houses were on fire very quickly.

And in the middle of the night, the people in the house seemed to be sleeping very dead, and when they found out, it was already too late.

Bei Chen knew, "Then what happened to Huang Nan?" If Empress Xi is good from a certain point of view, what about Huang Nan?

The old lady poured herself a cup of tea, lowered her head and pecked at her mouth, put the teacup on the table tremblingly, stared at the rippling water for a long time, and said slowly: "Every 100 years, Mrs. Come out here. And at this time, a girl is needed to make the body for Empress Xi."

"Huang Nan is, but Huang Nan is hairy, do you know that? Is this always the case when she was a container girl for Empress Xi in the past?"

Beichen asked one after another, making the old lady stiff, "No, no, I heard from the older generation that every hundred years, Empress Xi will pick a girl. Then there will be an extra name written in black pen on the booklet." .”

Bei Chen took out the booklet from his arms, opened the page, and pointed to Huang Nan's name to show the old lady, "This?"

The old lady shivered again: "Yes, yes, that's it. Then after a while, the girl will become Xi Niangniang, but she will be no different from ordinary people. But she will not get married in her life, but will live in Xi Niangniang Temple Here, I accept everyone’s offerings, but the girls chosen by Xi Niangniang usually live for a short time, usually about three years. Those girls will become very beautiful in just a few days. It is especially easy to attract men’s eyes. Anyone who offends Empress Xi will basically die."

"If it's not a girl from this village, her name will go up too?"

"No, it's all the surrounding villages." The old lady said with a weird expression, "But this girl seems to be?"

"It takes a few hours to make the train, so how did the name get there?" Bei Chen looked at the table, "Could it be that Miss Xi is going to choose a candidate, and then Mrs. Lin wrote Huang Nan's name on it?"

"No, I have to ask Empress Xi to choose by herself." The old lady waved her hands immediately, "Otherwise Empress Xi will be unhappy, and she will come out and kill Empress."

Speaking of this, the old lady was about to get up to see off the guests, muttering, "It's late at night, if you have anything to say, I will talk about it later, and then drive them away."

Beichen and Beiwei rushed back to the place where they lived before, and shared the news they had inquired about today.

The expressions on everyone's faces were very strange.

"Now this is the dead lady?"

Bei Chen was also very surprised and astonished: "Someone must have made a hindrance and wrote Huang Nan's name. Who knows that the one who came out now is not Xi Niangniang, but Shi Niangniang."

"It's a pity that the old lady didn't want to say more in the end." Bei Wei rubbed his chin and thought, "What should we do now?"

"Go to the previous village head tomorrow." The current village head is only in his 60s and young, so he may not know much about it.

But the former village head is still alive, in his 80s now, when they had a tofu banquet today, they saw the old man leaning on a cane, eating his elbows with a strong figure.

Beichen had something on his mind, so he got up early the next day.

The sky was bright, around 05:30 and [-] o'clock, and I didn't have breakfast, so I went out for a walk, stroll.

First, I went to the place where I found the hair stiff yesterday, and looked again. While looking, the black cat followed at one side and said: "The old lady's house is on the west side, this house is on the north side, and I saw Empress Xi's house on the east side." Temple, will there be a house like this in the south?”

Yuexu turned around and led the way: "Can't we just look at it and find out?"

The village is quite big. It took more than half an hour to walk from the north along the outer circle to the south.

He thought he would see a dilapidated house in the south, but instead of seeing a new building, his guess was wrong, which made Bei Chen a little disappointed.

Just as he turned around and was about to beat him up, he suddenly saw the former old village chief, slowly carrying a chair, come out to sit.

And this early in the morning, when there was no one around, Bei Chen immediately leaned over: "Master, I want to ask you something."

The old man sat by the wall of his house, looked at the flowers, plants, chickens and ducks not far away, took out a smoke sensor, and tapped it: "Say."

"About Xi Niangniang," Bei Chen just said this, the old man glanced at him, squinted his eyes, and looked at this young man, but he was still very calm, but unfortunately the next sentence changed: "Or, the one who comes out now is the dead empress .”

The old man knocked on the cigarette rod a little too hard, almost breaking it.

"Little guy, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk indiscriminately." With half-closed eyes, there are wrinkles around the eyes, and his expression is sharp and vigilant.

"Master, the Lin family lost a grandson, and a granddaughter-in-law died before, do you know about this?" Bei Chen was also patient, squatting beside him, chatting with him leisurely.

"Hmm." The old man hummed in a neutral tone, and didn't seem too interested.

"Huang Nan is from another village, but she turned into a dead body not long ago, and became a hairless man." He took out a white spirit card from his bosom: "Tell me, what's going on here?"

The uncle looked at the spirit tablet in Beichen's hand and his hands trembled slightly, "Hey, where did you get this thing?"

"Let me tell you where this thing came from, how about I tell you about Empress Xi?" Bei Chen didn't directly confess.

The uncle took a few puffs of cigarettes, "Xiangsheng, there are some things, it's better not to know too much." Obviously, he still didn't intend to say anything.

Bei Chen smiled, "The zombie who turned into a dead body has already arrived in this village yesterday. She was killing a lot in another village before. If we weren't there, she would have slaughtered the whole village." Not serious but not serious He patted the spirit card on his hand, "You are old, do you want Xiaolin Village to do the same?"

That uncle, panicked now, "What, what? Massacre the village? How could you massacre the village? Well, that Empress Xi, no, it's the dead empress, really the dead empress has come? Then, isn't our village still in good shape? You youngster, don’t scare people indiscriminately and talk nonsense!”

"Master, she didn't kill anyone because we had a fight with him." In fact, Beichen didn't know why last night was peaceful, but he didn't mind giving the credit to himself and using it as a bargaining chip for calling for information.

The old man's face was ugly, and he said goodbye for a long time, "Master, do you know how Empress Xi came here?"

"I don't know." He just didn't know, so he wanted to know the cause and effect, the ultimate source.

The old man pecked hard at the cigarette, and then slowly exhaled: "The Empress Xi was actually not the Empress Xi at the beginning, but the Empress Dowager. We and the surrounding villages treated our daughter-in-law badly, very badly, and then one day we were killed." retribution..."

"Overnight, many, many villagers died."

"The first chosen dead lady was wearing a wedding dress, standing in the rainstorm, her body was covered with blood, her two hands were holding her man's heart and eyeballs, and she looked at the other villagers expressionlessly."
