Ye Zi's house is in the easternmost part of the village, and the house is very large, unlike the houses of other villagers, made of green bricks. The architectural style of the house is very ancient, there are black tiles on the roof and tiles carved with auspicious beasts, which seems to be some style of the Western Han Dynasty, and it can be seen that the status of this family in this area in ancient times is extraordinary.

Ye Zi brought Chen Zhi and a few people into this house, and everyone walked in to take a look, and the interior layout was very simple. In the middle of the hall there is a case, on which are several porcelain vases, and on top of the case is a hand-painted portrait of a woman, which is not clear in age. There are a few wooden benches next to the hall, a square table, the inner room is a clay kang in the northeast countryside, and two or three large wooden boxes that are not clear in the morning, and there are a few yellowed old photos hanging on the west wall of the hall, although the room is simple but very clean.

"You sit down for a while, I'll make you some tea" Ye Zi flicked his braids after speaking, turned around and walked indoors.

After watching Ye Zi leave, Fat Wei touched Chen Zhi's feet and said in a low voice. "The foundation of this family is not ordinary, you look at the ground." Fat Wei stepped on his feet and said, "This is called the Han Dynasty blue brick, and there are words engraved on it!" It's just that now it's grinding. If you look at the bottle on the case, it is called "Jun porcelain". There is a saying in our antique shop, "Even if there is a family property, it is better to have a piece of Jun porcelain", which has to take a bottle, and we will send it.

Chen Zhi glared at him fiercely and said, "Don't think about it, if you are arrested in this village, you will be abolished, and the police uncle will not be able to save you." ”

Fat Wei grinned and said to Chen Zhi, "Look at what scared you, can my Wei Ye do that thing of stealing chickens and touching dogs." ”

As he spoke, Ye Zi walked in, carrying a teapot and a few teacups in his hand, and placed them on the wooden table. Chen Zhi and several people immediately gathered around and sat at the table with Xiaoxiao.

Ye Shui poured the tea into the cup, handed it to them one by one, and said, "Taste it, it's no worse than what you drink outside." ”

Chen Zhi picked up the teacup and took a sip, feeling that this tea was indeed fragrant and sweet, and it was rare to drink tea of this kind in the mountains. She raised her head and asked Ye Zidao.

"Sister Yezi, I want to inquire about one thing, is your great-grandmother, the old mother of the fox fairy, now in the village? This friend of mine is very sick, and we have come all the way to get the fox fairy mother to see him sick, and if the fox fairy mother says that there is no help, we will also die." Chen Zhi pointed at Fat Wei and said sincerely.

When Fat Wei heard Chen Zhi say this, he immediately echoed: "Little sister, you can do it, I have a terminal illness, and now I feel bitter." Fat Wei coughed as he spoke, and his acting skills were very poor.

Ye Zi looked at them, sneered a few times, and said, "Okay, don't sing in front of me, you didn't come to ask for medical advice at all, you came for the fox hole, right?" ”

Chen Zhi and the others were immediately stunned, but they didn't expect this little girl to immediately demolish them, and they didn't know what to say for a while.

Ye Zi poured himself a cup of tea, drank it calmly and said, "Since I was a child, I have seen more people come to find the fox hole. I heard that the fox cave is deep in the mountains behind our village, where it is cold and snowy all year round, and it is a primeval forest that cannot be walked out of. How many people every year, let the old hunter lead, into the mountain to find the fox hole, but the result is Ma Dashan (local dialect: lost in the mountain), never to return, even the old hunter has taken in.

When Chen Zhi heard Ye Zi say this, he felt that there was no need to hide it anymore, and said: "Sister Ye Zi, you are sharp-eyed, and Ming people don't say dark words, we are here to find the fox hole." Do you have any fox holes here? Is there really a fox fairy in there? ”

Ye Zi flicked his ponytail and said disdainfully: "What fox fairy?" It's a shame that you're also from a big city outside, and you've been believing in these rumors for a long time. I don't know if there's a fox hole, I haven't seen it anyway. It is also rumored that my great-grandmother has lived for a thousand years, and our family is of the blood of fox fairies and humans, do you believe it? Let me tell you, in fact, my great-grandmother only lived a little longer, and she is only in her 80s this year. After Ye Zi finished speaking, he grinned, revealing his snow-white teeth.

"You see, right? I'll just say we've been fooled. Fat Wei said helplessly, "You still force me to pretend to be a terminally ill patient, who will believe me who is fat and strong!" ”

Ye Zi glanced at Fat Wei, seemed to think he was cute, smiled and said, "Okay!" Don't come in vain, I'll make you some game, let you taste it, and when you're done eating, go back and go, this village doesn't allow outsiders to spend the night at night. With that, he turned and walked towards the kitchen.

Fat followed flatteringly and went into the kitchen to help.

As soon as Ye Zi and Fat Wei went out, Xiao Gu'er stood up and walked towards the west wall. Standing there, looking at a photo in a daze, Chen Zhi followed and looked at the photo.

There are a lot of photos hanging on the wall, basically a photo of Ye Zi and a girl. The girl was sixteen or seventeen years old, and she smiled very brightly with Yezi.

"Is this Ears of Wheat?" Chen Zhi asked Xiao Gu.

"Hmm", Xiao Gu'er nodded.

Chen Zhi looked at the girl carefully, and immediately understood why Xiao Gu'er liked her. The girl had a standard melon seed face, big eyes, bright water, and a bright smile. It's like a clear spring, very pure. There are leaves in Mai Sui'er's photos, and the relationship between the sisters seems to be very good.

Chen Zhi looked at the photos and didn't see a photo of a live fox. So he asked Xiao Tani, "Why isn't there a picture of the old lady named the live fox here?" Do you see what that fire fox looks like? In fact, even an old lady who has lived for more than 100 years is also common, not necessarily as evil as the legend, and lives for more than a thousand years. ”

Chen Zhi never believed that this old lady was so old, and felt that the rumors were watery.

"No, that's a live fox that's really evil," Kotani said, with a hint of fear on his face. My dad told me that he had seen live foxes when he was a kid, and he had always been an old lady.

At first, I didn't believe it, but then one time, I came here with Mai Sui'er, and she showed me some old photos of her family. The pictures are very old, and there are a lot of big people and live foxes in them.

In fact, this village is the one who receives these big people, and the live fox prays for them to eliminate disasters and help them get rid of their opponents. And...", Xiao Gu'er said with a mysterious expression, "These villagers are actually very rich."

"Rich? How do you know they're rich? Chen Zhi asked in surprise.

Xiao Gu looked left and right, and replied in a low voice, "During this time, I have done a lot of research. One of my classmates at the city bank said that the villagers often went there to transfer remittances, often in the millions. ”

Chen Zhi felt very strange when he heard this, he didn't expect this village to be so rich. Where do these villagers get their money? If there is so much money, why should they stay here and suffer, why don't they go out and enjoy themselves, unless there is a reason why they have to stay here.

Xiao Gu touched Chen Zhi and continued: "What I said is not the point of the problem, the point is that I have seen some very private photos of their family. Most of those photos were taken from 1940 to 1990, and there are even a few photos before the founding of the People's Republic of China, which are group photos of some big warlords and their families, and the live fox actually appeared on those old photos, and he has always looked like an old lady. A look of fear appeared on Xiao Gu'er's face.
