Ghostly Tomb

Chapter 61 Fox Sacrifice Ceremony ([-])

After hearing what Xiao Gu'er said, Chen Zhi was shocked. The matter of the photo was something he had never thought of.During this period of time, he has observed Xiao Guer. This person is not simple. He looks like a silent rural child, but he is actually the kind of person with firm beliefs. His mental age seems to be much higher than his actual age. He will not easily Mouth running the train.

If, as Xiao Guer said, this living fox existed before the founding of the People's Republic of China, then she is at least 200 years old now, which does not meet the limit of human life span, unless she really has a god's body protection, or she is Bai Qian herself.

Could it be that Bai Qian, an ancient god, has never died, and has been living in this hidden mountain village in the form of a human?Thinking of Bai Qian, Chen Zhi hid some primitive uneasiness in his heart. He still remembered the fear of being transferred into the double illusion. The illusion is so powerful that people are like ants in it.

Chen Zhi was talking to Xiaogu when he saw a man and a woman walking in.

The man is in his 20s, a typical mountain man, with big arms, thick waist, thick eyebrows and eyes, dark and strong.The girl was about eighteen or nineteen years old, and she was wearing a black padded jacket made of rough cloth. The padded jacket was very old, and the top was shiny with oil, and some cotton wool flew out from the corners of the clothes.The girl had pink hair tied on her head, her skin was dark, her oval face had a few freckles, her eyes were red, and she looked at Chen Zhi timidly.
"Are you from outside? Which one of you is in charge?" the girl asked.

Qin Yueyang was stunned for a moment after hearing the word "head of the family", and then pointed at Chen Zhi expressionlessly.

The girl immediately asked Chen Zhi: "You are the head of the house? My mother Hua'er, what's your name?"

Chen Zhi had just qualified for the position of head of the family, and was at a loss as to how to answer the girl's question.Ye Zi came out from the back kitchen, wiped her hands in the apron, and said, "Chunhuaer, why are you here? As long as foreigners come from our village, you won't be left behind. What are you doing here?"

"No, no," the girl hurriedly explained to Ye Zi, "It was my father who asked me to come over and ask you, how are you preparing for the fox sacrifice ceremony tonight, but is there anything missing?
Fat Wei's ears were sharp, and when he heard the words "Fox Festival", he rushed into the hall and asked, "What did you say about the Fox Festival? Let's watch the fun too? I love to join in the fun." .”

The man next to Chun Hua'er gave Chun Hua'er a hard look, and said: "In front of strangers, don't talk nonsense, if you have something to discuss with Ye Zi, go inside."

Seeing that Ye Zi ignored Pang Wei, she said to Chun Hua'er, "Tell your father, there is nothing missing here, so you don't need to ask again."

After Ye Zi finished speaking, she turned to the man and said, "Er Kui, Chun Hua'er is your daughter-in-law who has never been married, you should watch her, don't run around, you will be ashamed in front of foreigners."

"Hmph! It's just a kiss made by my parents, I don't agree to it," said the dark man named Erkui disdainfully.

Fat Wei seemed to be interested, and asked Ye Zi with a sullen face: "Miss sister, what kind of celebration is it tonight? I want to see it too, so let me go! Otherwise, I won't be able to sleep all night."

Ye Zi was worn out by him, and said: "What kind of fox sacrifice ceremony! The people in this village are very superstitious. They really think that my great-grandmother is the blood of the fox fairy. At this time of the year, the villagers will do it in the ancestral hall. Let’s make sacrifices, dance the magic dance to invite the gods, and pay homage to the enshrined fox fairy. At that time, my great-grandmother will come out to meet people, and in the form of lottery, will issue a spell to the girl in the village. A sacrificial girl who was called a fox fairy in [-] can usually marry a good family. It's nothing more than a performance by the villagers, and it's all a trick to deceive people." Ye Zi said helplessly.

"Sister Ye Zi, don't say that." Chun Hua'er seemed a little excited after hearing Ye Zi's words, and said, "The reason why you say this is because you don't know the power of your great-grandmother. The fox fairy really lives in the fox cave. My dad said that our village relies on her..."

"Stop talking nonsense, come with me!" The man next to him reprimanded Chun Hua'er loudly, pulling Chun Hua'er out repeatedly.

Ye Zi seemed to be very dissatisfied with Chun Hua'er, she curled her lips and said, "I'm always talking about it every day, everyone in my village is so stupid to believe such things, I must leave this village."

After finishing speaking, he said to Fat Wei: "Hurry up and eat! Leave the village early in a while. Outsiders are not allowed to participate in the celebration."

After finishing speaking, he went into the kitchen, and Fat Wei continued to go in to help, playing tricks on Ye Zi.

Ghost Knife held the knife and leaned against the wall with a dead face. Qin Yueyang seemed a little uncomfortable, leaning against the wall, his face pale.Chen Zhi lit a cigarette, left the house, and walked casually in the village.He took a look at this village in the deep mountains, and he couldn't feel the warmth and comfort that the Northeast countryside should have, but only felt a depressive atmosphere shrouded in superstition.

Chen Zhi was smoking a cigarette in a daze, when someone behind him shouted, "Outlander, hello outlander".

Chen Zhi looked back, and behind the firewood pile by the village, someone was calling him with half of his head exposed. Chen Zhi took a closer look and found that it was the Chunhuaer he had just seen.She was hiding behind the firewood pile, waving hands to him desperately.

Chen Zhi didn't know what she wanted to do, so he walked over and said to Chun Hua'er, "What's the matter?"

Unexpectedly, Chunhua'er grabbed Chen Zhi's arm without saying a word, and dragged him into the pile of firewood.The girl in this mountain is very strong, Chen Zhi was staggered into it, feeling very puzzled, thinking that the girl in this mountain is really savage, dragging people into the firewood stack in broad daylight?
Chunhua'er squatted in the firewood pile, clasped her knees with her hands, her eyes were red and red, her head was shaking non-stop, like a psychopath.She first motioned Chen Zhi to squat down and stop talking, then looked around and said softly, "Outsider, take me out of the mountain quickly? I have a lot of money, really, I can give you a lot of money."

"You give me money?" Chen Zhi looked suspiciously, and the tattered rural girl in front of her smiled slightly, but said nothing.

Unexpectedly, Chunhua'er was very excited, she jumped up, tightly grasped Chen Zhi's arm with both hands, and dug her fingernails into Chen Zhi's flesh.Her eyes were full of panic, and her face became deformed. He excitedly said to Chen Zhi: "You must find a way to take me out and save me. My mother told me desperately that this year is the tenth year." , they want to take me as a sacrifice to the gods."

As soon as I said this, I heard someone outside calling Chunhua'er's name loudly, it was Er Kui who was looking for her just now.Chunhua'er shivered in fright, put her neck back, and whispered to Chen Zhi: "I have to go, see you here when the sun goes down, as long as you can take me out, I will give you as much money as you want After speaking, he got out from the pile of firewood.
