The fog was rolling, like standing on the top of a mountain and watching the sea of clouds, at first the fog was just churning below the waist, and soon, it overflowed our heads and filled the entire space.

I smelled the fruit again, and the smell was addictive to me, and I felt like I was hooked. It's like smelling gasoline when I was a child, and I couldn't help but take a few more breaths.

The others, after smelling the fog, slept more soundly.

But soon the laughter rang out again, this time all around us, and surrounded us around the fire.

The woman's laughter continued, and at last, the people who had slept like pigs woke up one by one.

I woke up in a daze, but I quickly came to my senses. Everyone moved closer to me and Huzi. The first thing she did when she woke up was to hold my arm tightly and stick it to me.

Long Sihai and Long Wenwen were so tired that they tossed like this and hadn't woken up yet.

The laughter all around us grew louder and louder, and then the laughter was mixed with the sounds of some women talking. However, it sounds very mixed, and the pronunciation is not standard, just like a southerner speaking Mandarin.

Hu Junjie held up his gun and muttered: "Even if there are ghosts, how can they still be Southern Barbarian ghosts!" Grandpa Bai, this is not right! ”

Bai Jingqiu said: "General Hu, where is there a ghost, it is obvious that someone is pretending to be a ghost." Southerners are smart, this is a southerner doing things! ”

Hu Junjie said: "But since they can come in, we can go out, which is also good news." ”

Hu Junjie said beautifully, but his legs were shaking, and he felt fear. He was not a brave man.

However, Huzi was calm at this time, holding a gun in his hand and looking around.

Suddenly, he fired a shot, and this gunshot still woke Long Wenwen and Long Sihai awake.

The first time the two jumped up was to grab the gun, and after catching the gun, they stood back to back.

Long Sihai said, "What's wrong? ”

Huzi's shot was aimed at a figure, and the figure fell to the ground. Huzi walked over with a gun, and I followed closely behind, shining a flashlight. When we got to the end of the figure, we saw a paper figure on the ground. That shot hit the paper man solidly, and made a big hole in the paper man's chest/front.

Huzi picked up the paper figure with a gun, then threw it on the ground again, looked at me and said, "Lao Chen, let's go back." ”

The surrounding laughter, shouting, scolding, and calling were incessant, and all kinds of sounds were sandwiched together, and it was very chaotic. But we have to stay awake, and luckily, the fog keeps me calm.

After Huzi and I returned, Hu Junjie asked, "What is it?" ”

Huzi said: "Paper man, obviously I saw that it was a person, but after hitting it, it became a paper man." ”

As he was talking, there was a sudden sound of footsteps around him, very loud, mixed with the sound of horses' hooves. And so on.

Hu Junjie said loudly: "Start the generator, quickly!" ”

The generator quickly started, and then, Hu Junjie shouted, "Take a 1,000-watt fluorescent lamp." ”

Soon, a light bulb the size of a gourd scoop was hung, and suddenly, a large area of the surroundings was illuminated.

We looked at it through the light and gasped.

I saw that we were surrounded by ironclad infantry, and between them, there were cavalry.

The cavalry and infantry did not stand still, but moved, they shook their heads, they whispered.

Everybody didn't know what was going on, we all looked at each other, not knowing how to make sense of it.

But at this time, everyone firmly believed that it could not be true, and it was impossible for such a huge army to exist in this Iron Tile Oolong Palace.

Huzi said, "Old Chen, what is this? ”

I said, "Eighty percent are still paper people." ”

Huzi said: "I don't understand, how did the paper man come to life?" ”

I exhaled and I said, "It's something to do with fog!" ”

Hu Junjie shook his head at this time and said: "I absolutely don't believe that paper people can come back to life, watch me burn these things that pretend to be ghosts." ”

The dragon grabbed Hu Junjie's wrist, he shook his head and said, "General Hu, calm down." Such a large number of paper figures are all around us, if we light a fire, I am afraid that we will burn ourselves! Do you see that they don't dare to approach the fire, why did you think about it? ”

I said, "Brother Long, what do you think?" ”

The dragon muttered, "What is the most afraid of fire?" ”

I said, "Wild beasts in general are afraid of fire at night. Brother Long, don't you think someone is making trouble? But the beast? ”

At this time, the dragon whispered: "I heard my father say one thing, my second uncle had a wife named Zhang Guilan before, she was bitter and mean-hearted, as long as other people's chickens, cats, and dogs ran into the yard of the house, she would use a net to give the net, and after killing, stew sauerkraut in the pot and drink a few taels of wine."

One night, a fox came in through the cave to steal the chicken, and when the chicken crowed, she leaned on the window and saw that the fox was wandering around outside the chicken cover in the moonfield. After Zhang Guilan got up, she first blocked the water cave in the yard, then turned around and went to the shed to get a net to cover the fox. ”

Huzi said: "Stewed sauerkraut again?" ”

Irito nodded and said, "Eat, my second aunt doesn't eat anything except for not eating people." ”

Huzi said, "What happened later? ”

Irito said: "My father said, my father was still alive at that time, although each stove had its own food, but the whole family lived in the same courtyard.

In winter, my mother and Zhang Guilan change the stove day by day, and at five o'clock in the morning every day, I get up on time to dig out the ashes of each house and light the stove.

At five o'clock, it was still dark, Zhang Guilan took a dustpan to dig out the ashes, and then poured the ashes into the pigsty to make fertilizer.

That day, Zhang Guilan went out with a dustpan, and before she walked to the pigsty, she saw my father standing in front of the pigsty.

Zhang Guilan called her dad and said Did you get up at night (at night)? The man did not speak, but stood with his back to her.

Zhang Guilan asked again, but the man still didn't speak, Zhang Guilan said loudly, Dad, your ears are broken? As a result, my father said in the house, what are you shouting early in the morning? ”

Huzi said, "What is this?" ”

The dragon said: "The man turned around at this time, and Zhang Guilan saw that this person had no face, his face was black, and there was nothing.

Zhang Guilan threw the dustpan and ran back to the house with a scream, and since then the high fever has not gone away, and she has been seriously ill, and then her spirit is not very good, and she is always startled.

Half a month later, he hanged himself in the shed of his family. Zhang Guilan often kills people in the shed, and all the chickens, cats, and dogs that are caught in the net will be dealt with there, and then go to her own house to cook. ”

The dragon sighed and said, "The family said that Zhang Guilan had been retributed, and it was the fox fairy who came to ask for his life." ”

Huzi muttered: "Zhang Guilan is dead, is it your mother who wants the whole family's stove to be lit?" ”
