Good, this can't be eaten

Xie Chi hugged the dumpling and went out with Meng Shu. She was really curious.

Meng Shu took her to the small lake in the center of the village. There were several houses near this small lake, but the most eye-catching one was the small bamboo building close to the lake. The cloth strips look like the kind of tree covered with red cloth because many people made wishes.

The two of them came here secretly. Meng Shu first checked to see if there was anyone around, and then sneaked over with Xie Chi. When the two of them arrived outside the bamboo building, Meng Shu made a gesture of silence, and then said: "Just It's on the first floor, take a look."

The door was not closed, and Xie Chi could see the woman sitting in the bamboo building from a distance. She was sitting very upright, wearing a red wedding dress, with her hands on her knees, her face was pale, but her mouth was painted brightly. red.

like a dead man.

This was Xie Chi's first thought, but when he got a little closer, he realized that it was indeed not a living person, but a paper figurine, but it was so exquisitely made that it looked like a real person at first sight.

"Didn't it mean that many people are willing to send girls to the mountain gods to be their wives? Why do you still use paper dolls?" Xie Chi tilted his head, a little dazed.

"I suspect that the girl's birthday is pasted on the paper figurine. I can't really let the girls get on the sedan chair." Meng Shu touched his chin, and then said: "This is also a kind of substitute marriage, just like everyone uses paper now." It's the same as being buried with a person, probably for a reason?"

The paper figurine replaces the girl to marry the mountain god, and the girl can marry the person she likes again. It’s good to think about it this way. Xie Chi remembers that some remote places used to have the habit of living sacrifices, just like in Journey to the West. Boys and girls are the same as eating to the king of inspiration, and most of the sacrifices are women and children.

With the changes of the times, living sacrifices were illegal, and most places gradually abandoned them. In some places, live animals were used instead, that is, chickens, ducks, pigs, cattle and sheep, etc., and paper figurines were used in some places. Some places with paper figurines also use this method to write the birth date on the paper figurines instead of living people as sacrifices.

But because this is also unlucky, it will also be classified as evil.

The two wanted to go in and see if there was a date of birth on the paper figurine, but Xie Chi saw a person approaching from a distance, and hurriedly pulled Meng Shu away.

"At least it can be concluded that the sacrifice here is useless to living people." Xie Chi touched his chin while walking back: "Let's wait and see, I suspected that there might be living sacrifices here, but now it seems more I imagined it would be better."

"It's not a living sacrifice... But... I don't know what it has to do with the previous tourists. I can't tell it at all..." Meng Shu scratched his head: "It feels like two different things."

"Who knows, let's talk about it after the mountain god festival begins." Xie Chi waved his hand: "The meal needs to be eaten bite by bite, and the truth needs to be investigated bit by bit."

After getting a high salary, Meng Shu is now a purebred licking dog: "The boss is right! The boss is wise!"

Xie Chi: ...

Before the mountain god festival started, there was nothing else to do. After Xie Chi explored the whole village, he waited for less and less people going out in his room, and turned on his mobile phone every day to start playing cartoons.

The lazy support is still very useful. She can lie on the bed and watch cartoons with a dumpling in her arms.

Duanzi also seems to like cartoons very much, and she behaves obediently in her arms. Xie Chi also discovered a new usage of dumpling.

"Xiao Hei, pour me a glass of water."

Tuanzi, who was obediently in her arms, suddenly stretched out a slender arm, and then that arm crossed the mountain and the sea, poured Xie Chi a glass of water, and then retracted.

Although the picture looks rather ghostly, it is really easy to use. Xie Chi doesn't need to get up at all, he can solve all the things while lying on the bed, especially suitable for lazy time.

Xie Chi now feels more and more that raising a ghost is really much better than raising a cat or dog. It does not shed hair and has many uses, especially this one in her family, which is well-behaved and obedient. It really suits her heart up.

"I will definitely find a way to restore you to your human form as soon as possible." Xie Chi said seriously.

At night, Xie Chi still slept soundly, but around midnight, Tuanzi suddenly pushed Xie Chi back, Xie Chi was sleeping just right, opened his eyes vaguely, and embraced Tuanzi squatting on her chest Li, asked vaguely: "What's the matter..."

Tuanzi couldn't speak either, so he could only stretch out his hand, tugged at the skirt of Xie Chi's chest, and pointed out the window.

Xie Chi yawned, gradually came to his senses, climbed down from the bed, stepped on his slippers and looked out, it was still the same white lantern, swaying in the wind, vaguely reflected a small sedan chair, shaking Swing into the darkness.

Xie Chi was completely awake. She quickly pulled the box containing the Demon Slaying Sword, put it on her back, and ran out while stepping on her slippers.

But she was still a step too slow, and when she rushed to the street, the sedan chair had disappeared, only two rows of white lanterns were still dangling there.

Meng Shu also heard the movement, and walked out while rubbing her eyes: "What's going on?"

"I just saw a sedan chair with a red roof, which was carried by some little ghosts. I wanted to chase after it, but it was already gone when I came out." Xie Chi was a little annoyed: "The action must have been too fast! "

"Huh?" Meng Shu was a little at a loss: "What's going on? Is there a ghost marriage?"

"I don't know." Xie Chi frowned tightly: "Normally, you have to choose a date for a ghost marriage, but today is not a good day. The only one who may have something to do with this should be the marriage of a mountain god, but Isn't tomorrow the Mountain God Festival?"

"Let's see it tomorrow." Meng Shu also couldn't figure it out, the two of them stood in the wind for a while, and finally went back to sleep silently.

Before going to bed, Xie Chi praised Tuanzi: "You did a good job, and you should call me again if you encounter this kind of thing."

Early the next morning, the sound of blowing and blowing was already heard outside. Xie Chi had washed up early, had breakfast, adjusted the live broadcast equipment, and then went outside.

Although it was morning, many people flooded into the live broadcast room in an instant. Xie Chi's live broadcast was already well-known, and he had some regular fans. Some people even started asking questions as soon as they came in.

'Anchor anchor, what happened last time?Why did you suddenly turn off the live broadcast? We still want to watch the follow-up! '

"The owner of this number has died because of unsatisfied curiosity. I am his younger brother."

'So what the hell is going on!Why are there so many new houses in the old campus that has been abandoned for so long!Were the kids really here to play a trick?I'm going to die, please decipher it for me, and tell me the follow-up! '

Xie Chi began to make serious nonsense: "It is said that because someone liked the old campus very much, they wanted to restore the old campus, but they only built two or three houses and spent a lot of money, and then they didn't go any further. , As for those children, I have already sent them to their parents, and let their parents educate them well, and now they have rehabilitated and behaved well."

"Okay, okay, let's not dwell on the last story, but focus on the new live broadcast. Let me introduce my assistant first." Xie Chi calmly let Meng Shu into the camera.

Audiences:? ?

'This person looks familiar...'

'Old fans who came in and watched the anchor's first live broadcast can tell everyone that this person appeared during the first live broadcast, but wasn't he wearing a Taoist robe at that time? '

'So... did the anchor use love to influence a liar and make him change his ways? '

'I'm afraid it's not a physical sensation...'

"No, he was influenced by money." Xie Chi said while carrying his backpack, "Being my assistant earns more money, so he's here."

Meng Shu had been trained early, and admitted with blood in his heart that he used to be a liar: "Yes! We must believe in science. After the boss and I communicated seriously, I deeply felt that it is wrong to lie to others. This world There are no ghosts in the world! I want to follow my wise boss and start a real business!"

Then the barrage is full of 'hahaha', 'I saw a live licking dog today', 'Say, how much money the anchor paid you', 'The boss hit me... no, he persuaded me for a long time', 'It seems Memorize the lines'.

"The place I came to this time is Yuejia Village. There are many mountain god sacrifice ceremonies that have been passed down from a long time ago. I will show you all in a while." Xie Chi prepared the button-type camera this time, Naturally, her face will not appear in the camera, and there are many people wailing there, it is estimated that these are the kind of face powder.

But more people have already started discussing Yuejia Village.

After all, it was once popular, and some people still remember this place, and then they started to popularize science with other people in the live broadcast room. After Xie Chi started the live broadcast, he didn't talk anymore, because the two of them were going out soon.

Xie Chi came here as an ordinary tourist, so he could only live broadcast secretly, which is similar to an unannounced visit.

The whole Yuejia Village suddenly became lively. Usually, there were not many people on the streets of Yuejia Village, because it happened to be the busy farming season, and the young and middle-aged people went out to work, and the remaining women and old people were busy in the fields, so the streets Occasionally, you can only see some elderly people who are too old to work, and children walking around.

But today, no one in the whole village went to work in the fields, and all gathered near the mountain temple.

The two of them came out at just the right time. A sedan chair with a red top, carried by four middle-aged men, set off from the small bamboo building in the middle of the village. Those who beat gongs and drums and suona hands followed on both sides. The taste of the wedding scene in the costume drama on TV.

Yue Feng walked over with a smile: "You came at the right time, and you are going to send a new daughter-in-law to the mountain god."
