Ghostly Tomb

Chapter 59 Into the Village
Speaking of this, Xiao Gu'er paused, gritted his teeth and said.

"I've basically confirmed that Maisui should have been murdered. The murderer was in that village. It was most likely the old hag, the live fox. The reason why Maisui was haunted, so she called me in the underworld. Let me avenge her."

When Chen Zhi heard Xiao Gu'er say this, he felt that this rural boy had a lot of associations.So he asked him, "Even if you see the live fox wearing the bracelet of wheat spike, you can't be sure that she is the murderer. Maybe after wheat spike's death, his great-grandmother missed her, so she kept her bracelet as a memory. And Would an old lady kill her great-granddaughter because she fell in love?" Chen Zhi was very skeptical about this matter.

"It's definitely her," Xiao Gu'er said with certainty. Afterwards, I pretended to be crazy after failing the college entrance examination, and when I pretended to be a fool and went to Fox Fairy Village, no one paid attention to me, because no one knew about me and Mai Sui'er.But I found that the old witch often hid in the corner and looked at me secretly, her eyes were very strange, there must be something wrong with that old witch. " Xiao Gu'er said very firmly.

After Chen Zhi heard Xiao Gu'er's story, he sorted out the context of the whole incident in his mind. He thought that this Mai Sui'er should be dead, and someone else might have made the call.But Xiaogu was so sure of Maisui'er's breathing on the phone, so this matter didn't make any sense.

"Then how long are you going to pretend to be crazy like this?" Chen Zhi asked.

"Let's take one step at a time." Xiao Gu'er looked at the ground helplessly, "I'm pretending to be crazy now to protect my dad. In this ravine, everyone is superstitious. The prestige of a live fox is very high. If she wants to kill me, those The superstitious villagers buried me and my dad alive without any hesitation. And..." Xiao Gu'er paused, and said, "Mai Sui'er died because she loved me, and I can't let her die in ignorance."

Xiao Gu'er's words touched Chen Zhi and made Chen Zhi think of Sasha.Sasha's matter was like a needle, stuck in Chen Zhi's heart.For a long time, Chen Zhi avoided talking about Sasha and refused to think about it.Even if Lord Bao went to BJ to handle Sasha's funeral, he didn't want to ask too much. Sasha had become an eternal thorn in Chen Zhi's heart, and he didn't want to touch it easily.

Chen Zhi stood up, patted his pants and said, "Let's go inside that fox village and have a look! Depending on the situation, don't pretend to be crazy in front of us, but you have to keep pretending when you enter the village."

During dinner, because Fat Wei and Ghost Dao beat a mountain rabbit, they had roasted rabbit meat for dinner.The aroma of barbecue permeated the mountain, and Pang Wei and Qin Yueyang were very surprised by Xiao Gu'er's change.Thinking that the world is really changing all the time, Ghost Saber's reaction is very flat, probably he has already felt that there is something wrong with Xiaogu.

The night in the mountains was very cold, the cold wind from Daxing'an Mountains blew their faces, and everyone's faces began to become red and swollen.Fortunately, Chen Zhi and the others prepared thick outdoor sleeping bags in advance.Xiaoguer told everyone to pack up the leftover bones and throw them far away, otherwise in the deep mountains and old forests, the leftover food will attract many big beasts.Moreover, the bonfire cannot be extinguished.

In this way, after we spent the night in the mountains, the next morning, at dawn, we were led by Xiaoguer and started to walk towards the legendary Fox Fairy Village.

Although it is April weather, there is still a lot of frost on the trees in the mountains.Chen Zhi and his party carried heavy travel backpacks, walked through the dense forest, and finally descended from the dirt road to the entrance of Huxian Village.

After Chen Zhi entered the village entrance, he took a look at the village first. This is really a very old village, as if outside time has never flowed here.The stone road at the entrance of the village was built in an unknown age, and it was trampled brightly.There is still some residual snow on the ground. In the village, you can see scattered farmyards. The fences are surrounded by white birch trees.

The wind in the village is cold and hard, and there are still frosts on some of the shaded windows in the yard, and cotton curtains are hung on them.There are stone mills, mills and potter's wheel wells at the entrance of the village, all of which seem to be public.A few elderly people, holding long pipes, were sitting on the open space at the entrance of the village. When they saw outsiders like Chen Zhi coming in, they immediately stood up nervously.

Chen Zhi found out that this village did not welcome outsiders. After a while, all the villagers came to the open space and surrounded Chen Zhi and the others. Everyone stared at them with hostility in their eyes.

At this time, a girl walked towards them from the crowd. She looked about sixteen or seventeen years old and seemed to have a high status among the villagers. The villagers immediately gave way to her.

The girl was wearing coarse clothes, ponytails, and a clean face. She first looked at Chen Zhi and the others from top to bottom, then walked up to Xiao Gu'er and said, "Fool Gu, take these What are outsiders doing here? You know that outsiders are not welcome in our village." After speaking, he gave Fat Wei a hard look.

At this time, Xiao Gu'er smiled foolishly, and stammered, "Sister Yezi, this person is seriously ill and has come all the way to find the old fox fairy mother. My father asked me to bring him into the village to see if he can ask the old fox fairy mother Save him." After speaking, he pointed to Fat Wei.

In fact, to be honest, Xiao Gu'er's acting skills are really bad. Chen Zhi wondered why no one suspected that he was pretending to be crazy. Maybe it was the simplicity of the mountain people. In short, the girl named Ye Zi really regarded him as a fool. There is no defense at all.

Ye Zi frowned after hearing Xiao Gu'er's words, and said disdainfully. "Tch, Uncle Gu is getting more and more confused as he gets older. How can there be a fox fairy? It's all superstition. If you are sick, go to the hospital. My great-grandmother doesn't know how to see a doctor. Take them away as soon as possible!"

As soon as the girl finished speaking, she saw the villagers collectively take a step forward, and the hostility in their eyes became stronger, as if they were going to eat Chen Zhi and the others.

At this time, Fat Wei saw that the situation was not good, so he walked over immediately.Said: "Miss sister, you are so beautiful, why are you so cruel? We walked on the mountain road for two days, and now my legs are about to cramp. I am still a seriously ill patient, and I can fall to the ground at any time. Otherwise, you will give me a drink of water first." , drive us away again?"

After hearing what Fat Wei said, the girl looked at Xiao Gu'er again, as if she still cared about Lao Gu's face.She flicked her ponytail and said, "Okay! Come to my house to drink some water and have a rest. You have to leave the village before dark.

Hearing what the girl said, the villagers behind relaxed their vigilance and walked away in all directions. Just like that, the girl led Chen Zhi and his party towards their home.

Along the way, Fat Wei kept flattering and talking to the girl, Qin Yueyang seemed a little tired, he kept walking without raising his head, Ghost knife looked at the surrounding houses vigilantly.At this time, Xiao Gu'er lowered her voice and said to Chen Zhi: "This is the little granddaughter of the fox fairy mother (live fox), Ye Zi. She is Mai Sui'er's younger sister, two years younger than Mai Sui'er. We will go to her house later You can see live foxes."
