About three months ago, since August, there are often livestock lost in the village, there are blood stains of livestock on the ground, and later it was found that the wolf came to steal livestock in the middle of the night, for rural people, livestock is an important means of production and livelihood, the people rely on that little land and livestock to live, lost so many livestock, the villagers are very distressed.

After research, more than 20 young and strong villagers gathered in the village, followed the bloodstains with steel forks and sticks to the cemetery in the west of the village, and came to the grave to see, the north and south of the tomb were dug a hole, the south facing the sun is the hole, and the north is the air eye.

The villagers couldn't help but say, the north of the hole plugged, excavated from the south, while digging back while throwing dry firewood into the hole, soon after, the hole was dug open, when the hole was opened, all the people present were instantly shocked out of a cold sweat, only to see a she-wolf with five wolf cubs lying in the coffin, the coffin has been a little rotten, the bones are scattered, the she-wolf looked back at the people in horror, although the villagers who lost their livestock were a little afraid, but, as soon as they remembered that these wolves ate their livestock, they came to the fire, They raised their steel forks and clubs and threw them at the she-wolf.

The villagers said that if the she-wolf wanted to escape at this time, she could escape, but the she-wolf did not run, but quickly hugged the little wolf cubs under her body and protected them with her body.

The stick hit down like raindrops, and the she-wolf looked back at the people, and tears kept flowing from the corners of her eyes, as if begging the villagers to let them go, but the villagers did not relent, the stick still hit down violently, and the she-wolf's head was smashed open. The brains are all flowing out.

After killing the she-wolf, the villagers did not give up and used steel forks to pick the she-wolf aside. The five wolf cubs who were waiting to be fed were beaten to death with sticks, and several of the wolf cubs died one after another with convulsions.

A few bold villagers were about to carry the she-wolf away when suddenly a large sturdy male wolf, large like a calf, rushed through the crowd and hurried up the hill from the bottom of the coffin. The male wolf ran halfway up the mountain, stopped suddenly, turned back and howled at the people below, turned around and disappeared into the depths of the dense forest.

The villagers carried the she-wolf back to the village. In a villager's house, wolf skins were picked, and several people gathered together to eat wolf meat.

The night after the wolf's death, around ten o'clock, the sleeping people were suddenly awakened by a burst of wolf howls. The wolf's howl was terrible. It was creepy to listen to, and the wolf barked in the village for the whole night, and did not leave until dawn the next day.

After the wolf was gone, the frightened people dared to come out of the house, and gathered together to talk, it turned out that the male wolf barked all night at the door of the villager who skinned the wolf and ate wolf meat, and the villagers said that the wolf had come to take revenge.

When the frightened people realized that the wolves had come for revenge, the villagers felt that they had done too cruelly. Even if the she-wolf is killed, all the young wolves should not be killed. However, people woke up too late, and every night after that, the male wolf would come to the house of the two villagers who carried the wolf and howl, and after about a month, one of the older villagers died suddenly because of excessive fright, and the other was also in a trance because of fright, and did not dare to sleep all night long, and many of those who had participated in fighting wolves and eating wolf meat moved out of the village because of fear.

Ji Ran's third uncle said: "After we heard the news that the grave was picked, we hurried to the grave, and when we arrived at the place, the five little wolf cubs killed in the coffin were gone, and they were probably taken away by the male wolf." ”

Listening to the description of the villagers, Ji Ran only felt that his back was in a cold sweat, and he had goosebumps all over his body, but fortunately, Wang Le had been by Ji Ran's side and hugged her tightly, so that Ji Ran did not fall down because of the weakness of his legs.

Ma Daxian listened to the villagers' story, and couldn't help but be a little scared, so he retreated at that time and didn't want to go, but Ji's father asked again and again, and as soon as the villagers heard that Ma Daxian knew magic, they also begged him to help drive the wolf away.

Ma Daxian couldn't stand everyone's pleading, so he decided to go up the mountain to have a look.

When the villagers saw that Ma Daxian agreed, they immediately gathered more than 30 people, took sticks and other tools, and went up the mountain together.

Although it was daytime, the villagers also lit torches, carried straw and dry firewood, and lit bonfires to prevent wolves from approaching.

The cemetery is located on a small dirt slope at the foot of the mountain, about six or seven miles from the village, and because of the deep snow, it is impossible to drive and have to walk.

The deeper the snow became, some places were not above the knees, Ma Daxian's legs were not good, so he had to carry his apprentice on his back, after walking for a while, Wang Le looked at Ma Daxian's apprentice tired and panting, so he went over to carry it for him for a while, and the two took turns carrying Ma Daxian on his back.

There was almost no one talking along the way, the atmosphere was very depressing, and when he was about to reach the grave, Ma Daxian's apprentice said half-jokingly while carrying Ma Daxian on his back: "Master, if the wolf comes, I will carry you and run first." ”

The people next to him laughed when they heard this, which somewhat relieved some of the tense atmosphere.

From the departure to the cemetery, it took about an hour to walk, and after arriving at the grave, Ji Ran wanted to sweep the snow on the grave, but was stopped by Ji's father, there is a saying in Ji Ran's hometown, that is, the married girl can't sweep her ancestral grave, as for what the reason is, Ji Ran can't say clearly, which is also one of the main reasons why Ji Ran's hometown has a strong patriarchal thinking.

Ji Daxian and Ji Ran's third uncle swept the snow off the grave, revealing the grave, the whole grave had been dug up in a mess, and the bones were scattered everywhere, Ma Daxian went to the grave with the support of his apprentice, silently recited a few incantations, and then asked Ji Ran's family to wear red gloves, and then Ma Daxian gave Ji Ran's father and the third uncle some rune paper, and asked them to use the rune paper to collect the scattered bones and put them into a peach wood box that was painted vermilion brought by Ma Daxian.

Ma Daxian recited a spell to the peach box, and then said to Ji's father: "The feng shui of this tomb has been broken, so you have to choose another place to bury it." ”

Ji's father and Ji Ran's third uncle did not object, and immediately asked Ma Daxian to help choose a place with better feng shui to bury the bones of the ancestors.

Ma Daxian nodded in agreement, and at the same time, looked at the dug grave with a solemn face, "The yin qi here is too heavy, the ghost of the wolf will not go away, your child's illness will not be cured, I have to do things, and the dead wolf can do it." ”

The villagers were very curious, of course, people in the countryside were more receptive to the idea of ghosts and gods, so there was no objection, and people formed a big circle and let Ma Daxian do things in the middle.

Ma Daxian burned the rune paper in his hand, while chanting words, speaking quickly, I don't know what he said, anyway, it is not the kind of heavenly spirit spirit, and when Ma Daxian was doing things, the wolf's howl suddenly sounded halfway up the mountain, and the villagers looked towards the mountain in horror, because it was winter, there was no cover from leaves, and a wolf could be clearly seen standing halfway up the mountainside, looking at Ji Ran and them, constantly howling, and the sad howl echoed in the mountains and forests, which made people feel a sense of sadness in their hearts.

After about half an hour, the wolf turned and disappeared into the woods.

After the excess, Ma Daxian helped Ji Ran's family choose a place with good feng shui and reburied the bones of the ancestors of the Ji family.

In the evening, back to Ji Ran's third uncle's house, Ma Daxian gave Ji Ran's third uncle a few pieces of rune paper, and asked Ji Ran's third uncle to burn one every day, and it couldn't be broken for three days.

Since there is no good place to eat and live in the village, and Ma Daxian has been busy all day for the affairs of the Ji family, therefore, Wang Le plans to take Ma Daxian back to the city to live in a hotel, Ji Ran discussed it with Ji's father, Ji's father nodded and agreed, and asked Ji Ran and Wang Le to accompany Ma Daxian and his apprentice back to the city, Ji's father stayed at the third uncle's house for a few days, on the surface, he hadn't seen the third uncle for a long time, and he reminisced with the third uncle, but in fact, Ji's father was a little worried about the third uncle, afraid that he would not burn the talisman paper according to Ma Daxian's instructions.

That night, Ji Ran and Wang Le took Ma Daxian and Ma Daxian's apprentice back to the city of T City, originally wanting to invite Ma Daxian to have a meal, but as a result, Ma Daxian's apprentice told him that Ma Daxian does not eat meat, and every meal is white rice with a little greens, or drink porridge, and under the influence of Ma Daxian, his apprentice does not eat meat.

Looking at the table full of big fish and meat, abalone and seafood, Wang Le and Ji Ran looked at each other awkwardly, shook their heads helplessly, and had to pack them all.

After spending the night in T City, the next day, Wang Le drove Ji Ran, Ma Daxian and his apprentices back to Kyoto, Wang Le sent Ma Daxian and his apprentices to his home in Tongzhou, leaving 10,000 yuan for Ma Daxian, Ma Daxian did not say anything this time, and let the apprentice directly accept the money, which made Wang Le and Ji Ran a little puzzled, last time he gave him a thousand, he tore and tore and tore and only received five hundred, this time he gave him 10,000, he actually received it without saying a word.

Of course, as long as Xiaobao's illness can be cured, let alone 10,000, it is not much than 100,000, so Ji Ran and Wang Le are just a little strange and have no intention of care.

After Ma Daxian asked his apprentice to collect the money, he told Ji Ran and Wang Le, "Go back, come back in three days." ”

Ji Ran nodded, and asked Ma Daxian again: "Three days later, when is the right time to come?" Do you still need to come back to number? ”

Ma Daxian shook his head, "Any time is fine, but it's better in the morning." ”

Ji Ran nodded, agreed, and left with Wang Le.

On the way home, Ji Ran's heart was still a little uneasy, I didn't know if what Ma Daxian did would work, so I called home halfway to ask about the situation, it didn't matter if I asked, Ji's mother said that Xiaobao still smoked last night, and the smoke was still very strong, Ji Ran's heart suddenly hung again.
