Back then, what else was the owner of Qiao Zhuang hiding?

The truth is actually hidden in the fox demon.

That day, because Feng'er was unwell, the fox demon went out alone to sell goods. When he returned to Qiao's house, he found his wife lying on the bed in disheveled clothes, and she had already lost her breath.

The fox demon's nose was much more sensitive than that of mortals, and soon, he sniffed out the breath of the owner of Qiao Zhuang who remained in the room. The annoyed fox demon planned to go to Master Qiao Zhuang to theorize, but as soon as he arrived at the door, he was covered by a large net.

In front of the net, there was also a Taoist priest.

It turned out that the owner of Qiao Zhuang asked Feng'er to ask for the face-changing grass to no avail, so he asked the housekeeper Qiao Sanxi to spy secretly, hoping to find the face-changing grass. When the fox demon returned to the mountain temple again to get the change of face grass, Qiao Sanxi secretly followed and discovered the secret hidden inside. After returning to Qiao's house, he told Master Qiao what he saw in the mountain temple.

Although he knew that the merchant was a monster, but for the time being, the owner of Qiao Zhuang still hid this secret.

Feng'er's illness, in the eyes of Master Qiao, was a good opportunity, he originally wanted to use the secret in his hands to force Feng'er to agree to his previous proposal, and at the same time to blackmail Feng'er to force the fox demon to transform into more face-changing grass. Feng'er refused to cooperate with the Qiao family, and after knowing that the face-changing grass was exchanged for her husband's cultivation, she refused to agree.

The owner of Qiao Zhuang was angry, so he rushed to Feng'er and tried to threaten her. Feng'er struggled, her clothes half-faded, revealing a large area of skin. Unexpectedly, the appearance of her struggle actually made Master Qiao Zhuang have other thoughts and tried to insult Feng'er.

During the struggle, Feng'er wanted to bite her tongue and commit suicide in order to protect her innocence, but she was choked by the owner of Qiao Zhuang. As a result, he was strangled to death.

After Feng'er's death, the owner of Qiao Zhuang knew that the fox demon would definitely take revenge when he returned. Fortunately, he had already prepared and had already invited a master to live at home.

He ordered Steward Qiao to invite the Taoist priest to the backyard and laid out a demon hunting formation.

For the sake of those face-changing grasses, the fox demon has dispersed most of his cultivation, plus the Taoist priest is in front of the array, and because of the death of his wife, he is in turmoil, and he only wants revenge wholeheartedly, and he fell into the trick of the Taoist priest, and was almost wiped out. In order to cover up the truth, after the Taoist priest captured the fox demon, the owner of Qiao Zhuang sent someone to report to the yamen, saying that the fox demon in the family had harmed people and had been arrested, and hoped that the government could come forward to deal with the rest of the matter.

There was a monster hurting people on the ground under his jurisdiction, and the official master naturally didn't dare to make a noise, so he cooperated with Master Qiao Zhuang to suppress the matter. And someone secretly escorted the fox demon to the yamen, and the Taoist priest chose a good day and an auspicious day to eliminate the demon. Externally, it was claimed that the merchant and the merchant's wife had a quarrel over a quarrel, and the merchant killed his wife by mistake in anger.

The wife was killed, he was captured, the owner of Qiao Zhuang and the government united to reverse black and white, and the fox demon was unwilling. He used the fox clan's unique Gu heart technique to trick the cell leader who guarded the prison to release himself from the prison. Since then, he has been hiding in the mountain temple, recuperating from his injuries and waiting for an opportunity to take revenge.

It is not easy for monsters to practice, and besides, he was injured by the Taoist priest, not to mention that it was to avenge his wife, and even he didn't know how long he could last. After thinking about it, the fox demon thought of using the greed of people's hearts to increase his cultivation.

For demons, such a cultivation method belongs to the side door, which is what the folk call the side door and left way. Once it is recognized, there will be the consequence of being eaten by the demon law. People are not afraid of death, the world is invincible, demons are not afraid of death, and naturally there are no taboos.

The first person chosen by the fox demon was called Hong Xing, which was the first woman to disappear among the four portraits that Xing Ruyi saw.

Hongxing is the eldest daughter of Qiao Laoxi's family, a tenant in Qiaojiazhuang, and like Feng'er, she has a birthmark on her face, and her birthmark is still in the center of her face.

Hongxing also has a younger sister named Hongmei. Different from her sister Hongxing, Hongmei is as her name suggests, not only has skin that is better than snow, but also white and red, and is very good-looking. Since Hongxing was sensible, what she heard was the sighs of others for herself, as well as the praise of her sister Hongmei.

On the surface, she is very good to her sister and extremely filial to her parents, and she is a good girl in the eyes of many neighbors. But secretly, she often cursed her mother, complaining that her mother made her ugly, but she gave birth to her sister like a flower, and she didn't have a good face for her mother.

In the sixteenth year of Hongxing and the fourteenth year of Hongmei, a matchmaker came to the door to propose marriage to Hongmei, and the object of the proposal was still Hongxing's favorite man. Seeing her parents beaming, Hongxing was sad and angry, she ran back to the room with tears in her eyes, and kept cursing, hoping that her sister would die soon. Hongxing felt that it was because of the existence of her sister that she became so unlucky, and it was also because of the existence of her sister that the man she liked only had her in his eyes, not herself.

She complained about her father's partiality, even if the other party came to propose, if she wanted to marry, she should be the first to marry as a sister, how could there be a sister who was not married, and her sister would go out of the cabinet first. If this matter spreads, where will she still have the face to stay at home. Hongxing felt that her father and mother agreed to her sister's family affairs, which was to force her to die.

People, once they have demons in their hearts, will do terrible things.

After her sister's family affairs were decided, Hongmei, like an ordinary girl, began to make a dowry for herself. On the day when the wedding dress was made, Hongxing could no longer suppress the manic demon in her heart, and actually used her sister's scissors to cut the wedding dress, and poked her sister to death. Subsequently, she also carefully arranged the scene and made her sister look like she died accidentally.

My sister died, my father cried a lot, and my mother had a serious illness because of my sister's death. After the illness was cured, the person also became much older. Hongxing saw it in her eyes, not only did she not feel distressed, but she became more and more resentful, and she felt more and more that her sister was the scourge of the family, and her father and mother did not have her eldest daughter in their eyes at all.

In a blink of an eye, she has become a big girl in the eyes of others, and in another year or two, she will become an old girl that no one wants. But my father and mother never seemed to care about her leaving the cabinet. She didn't care about her cheekiness and told her father and mother twice, but her father and mother only had that sentence over and over again: "If you are like this, where will there be a man who will come to ask for marriage." ”

What my father said was the truth, but she didn't like it when it fell in Hongxing's ears, she even turned herself into a big girl, and she complained about her father and mother for not being able to get married, and felt that as long as her father and mother were gone, no one would stop her family affairs, and she would be able to find a wishful husband.

The fox demon, it was at this time that he found the red apricot.

He first used demon magic to bewitch Hongxing and lure her to the mountain. Signing an agreement or something, it's just a pretense, and what the fox demon wants is her grudge heart.

Hongxing didn't make it down the mountain, and she died in the dream that the fox demon had woven for her. The fox demon pulled out her heart and ate it, then buried her body under a pile of grass behind the mountain temple.

The second person chosen by the fox demon is the daughter of Qiao Baliang, who sells meat in the village, that is, the dwarf girl.

Qiao Baliang is not his real name, but because his name is always eight taels. As the daughter of Qiao Baliang, the dwarf girl has been infected with greed and cheapness since she was a child.

One day, a mother-in-law went to Qiao Baliang's meat stall to buy meat, and it happened that the dwarf girl was helping at the stall and handed the meat to her mother-in-law, when she saw a gold bracelet on her mother-in-law's hand.

The gold bracelet is not heavy and thin, but the carved pattern on it is very beautiful, and the dwarf girl likes it at once. The mother-in-law has bad eyes and needs a cane to walk. When the dwarf girl saw this, she had a plan, she pretended to send her mother-in-law home, but in fact she was thinking about how to steal the gold bracelet in her hand.

The mother-in-law had a bad look in her eyes, and thought that the dwarf girl was just a kind and sensible little girl, so she naturally did not guard against it. The dwarf girl deliberately took her mother-in-law on some remote paths, and when she passed an old bridge in disrepair, she pretended to fall, grabbed her mother-in-law's crutches, and took off the gold bracelet from her mother-in-law's hand while she lowered her body to help her.

It's a pity that although my mother-in-law's eyes are not good, she feels very sensitive. As she got up, she touched her wrist and asked the dwarf girl if she had seen her bracelet. said that the bracelet was given by the husband when he got married. Now that the prime minister is gone, only such a bracelet is left as a memory. If the dwarf girl really likes it, after a hundred years, she can give this bracelet as a gift to the dwarf girl, which can be regarded as a reward for her kindness in sending her home today.

When the dwarf girl heard this, not only did she not have the slightest shame, but she felt that her mother-in-law had seen through all her tricks. What do you say that if you give this bracelet to her as a gift after a hundred years, isn't it coaxing her to return the bracelet herself? Once she returned it, she confirmed that she had stolen her mother-in-law's gold bracelet, and when her mother-in-law returned home, she would not let her son and daughter-in-law make trouble at her house.

The dwarf girl looked around, and when she saw that there was no one around, she led her mother-in-law to the bridge. said that she wanted to help her mother-in-law put on her gold bracelet, but in fact, she was moved by murderous intentions and pushed her mother-in-law directly off the bridge.

It was an abandoned old bridge, the river under the bridge was shallow, and the mother-in-law did not die immediately after falling into the river, but after soaking in the water for a while, she slowly swallowed her breath.

After pushing her mother-in-law off the bridge, the dwarf girl hid her mother-in-law's gold bracelet, and then returned home as if nothing had happened, and all this was hidden in the Zhuangzi, and the fox demon who was looking for the object was seen.

Like Hongxing, the dwarf girl was also bewitched by the fox demon, left home, went up the mountain alone, and signed an agreement with the fox demon. The fox demon gave her a dream full of things she longed for and couldn't reach, and she paid with her life.

What the fox demon wants is the greed of a dwarf girl.

Demons are terrible, and the darkness of the human heart is more terrible than demons.
