But no, girl, you don't understand, in that starving era, not to mention half a bag of corn ballast, that is, grass root bark, and where to go to the cat, so, ah, half a bag of corn ballast at that time was very amazing, but it could save the life of the whole family! ”

Listening to me laughing disdainfully, Aunt Mai said with a serious expression: "Hey, I think your grandmother is also a last resort, otherwise who would ruthlessly exchange their children for food, everything is fate, this is your mother Qin'e's life, bitter!" ”

"I think your Cao family was too poor at that time, the poor jingle sounded, there was no room, and there was no half ridge on the land, but your mother was very content, and there was a smile on her face when she saw the sky, or she would marry a daughter-in-law, or marry a child from a poor family, and live a solid life, and if you have a stutter, there is nothing to do."

"Okay, why is this still so far, then our eldest brother is not bad, he is honest and willing to work, and besides, at that time, the family was like that, what was there to be content and not satisfied." Uncle Mai Zi took a look and interrupted.

"No, their old Cao family is poor, it's like falling to the bottom, according to Qin'e told me, don't sell it for some money, as long as you have plenty of money, there will be a hole waiting for you immediately, don't wait until the next day, Qin'e said, as long as you don't starve, she accepts her fate." As she was interrupted by Uncle Mai, Aunt Mai said.

"Ahem, cough, cough......" I almost choked on a mouthful of food, and coughed violently.

"Look at it, don't let you talk about it, what are you doing with those past things, eat and eat." Uncle Mai Zi looked at me and glared at Aunt Mai.

"Didn't I mention it, I haven't seen the girl for more than ten years, and it's inevitable that I can't think of her mother, and I'm sad." Aunt Mai took a look and picked up the bowl to eat.

After eating like this, I went to the old house in the backyard under the leadership of Uncle Maizi.

Covered with thick snow, Uncle Mai and I walked to the courtyard, and Uncle Mai was a little afraid to go forward.

"Girl, do you see it, it's hanging there, the one facing the door." As I didn't dare to go in, Uncle Mai pointed to the door of the main room for me to see.

"Well, Uncle Mai, you wait for me here, I'll go in." I looked up and saw that there was indeed a black old corpse hanging there, hooked, like a lewd black dog.

"This ...... Aren't you afraid? Uncle Mai asked me.

I smiled and shook my head, and stepped on the snow shell more than a meter deep into the courtyard.

Look up at my old house, no, it's the old man's house.

The doors and windows were gone, and the house was covered with snow, forming several grooves near the windowsill with rat paw prints.

"Who will you be?" I went into the house and approached the hanging corpse, covered in skin and bones, with hard tentacles and pieces of clothing draped over it.

And looking at the sparse and slightly gray short hair at the back of his head, it should be a man.

"Why are you here, why is Village Chief Shi crazy, and who gave you the sigil?" I looked around and leaped to my feet to look at the sigil on the dead man's forehead.

At this glance, I felt that something was wrong.

The rune paper is very positive in color, slightly faded, and the rune marks drawn on it are clearly visible, so it must have been pasted recently.

As Uncle Mai said, it was posted more than ten years ago, and after years of baptism, not to mention the sigils on it, even the yellow paper has long turned to ashes.

In other words, this sigil is often replaced, and someone will come to take care of this old corpse.

In addition, this rune paper is also firmly pasted, you said that this house is ventilated on all sides, and the wind howls slightly, and it is a miracle that you didn't blow it down.

"Sigil...... How does this runic painting look familiar? As I felt something was wrong, I snapped.

"This ...... Isn't it the Yin Talisman drawn on the bed of the old man of the Demon Ancestor's house? "It occurred to me suddenly.

At the beginning of the longevity, the turtle character is drawn at the end, and the six water muddy dots in the middle, this spell drawing method is the same as all the talismans pasted on the bedside in the backyard room of the old man's house.

"Old man Demon Ancestor...... Is the old man of the Demon Ancestor here, and he is in charge of this hanging corpse? "I can't believe the scream.

"Girl, red willow girl, are you okay?" Hearing me shouting, Uncle Mai called me.

"It's okay, it's okay, come out right away." I fell in response and looked all over the room.

Except for some tattered tables and chairs, nothing else, a layer of rat droppings was scattered on the ground.

"Who the hell are you, am I going to put you down?" I looked at the shrunken head, and I really didn't know what to do.

The old man of the Demon Ancestor would come here, but he never told me?

"What's all going on?" I scratched my head and decided to go to Village Chief Shi's house.

"Uncle Mai, what does this person look like, are you sure you are not the owner of this house, old junior?" As I walked back, I asked Uncle Mai.

"No, no, absolutely not, this is a young man, he is in his twenties, he was dressed quite tattered, and he looked like he should be a beggar called Hanako, Ao, he didn't hang himself, because when he was found, there was nothing under his feet, he was strangled to death, otherwise whoever had the ability could jump high and hang himself."

As I asked, Uncle Mai Zi said emphatically: "Girl, have you noticed, the dead man is hanging high, and his feet are more than a meter above the ground, who do you say can do it." ”

"Hmm." I answered and called Uncle Mai to take me to Village Chief Shi's house.

Two brick houses, the yard is neatly tied, and there are a few goats.

"This is ......" As we entered the house, the old woman of Village Chief Shi looked at me hesitantly.

"Cao Hongliu, the little girl of Brother Cao's family back then, sister-in-law Shi, the girl has grown up, this is the New Year's pass to come back to worship the ancestors, and I will go to Laotun to take a look." Uncle Mai Zi said tightly.

"What...... Little girl of the Cao family, you have been killed by God, get out of here, your Cao family has made us miserable, and my old man has been stupid for so many years, what are you looking for, what are you watching, are you watching the excitement? As Uncle Mai Zi said this, Mrs. Shi directly pulled the feather duster and pulled it over to me.

"Roll on, hurt people, your family is all harmful spirits, why don't you die, you will stop squinting when you die outside, they are all in the soup pot, what are you worshipping, do you want that dead person to harm people enough, let them come back, get out, you damn girl, get out of the village for me, we don't welcome you in Shimo Village!" With this feather duster running at my head, Mrs. Shi cursed again and again.

"Sister-in-law Shi, sister-in-law Shi, what are you doing, dissipate your anger, let's talk slowly, say slowly, this child is pitiful enough, what did it have to do with her back then, I said sister-in-law, why are you still more and more confused, come, sit down, sit down!" I just watched like that, watching Uncle Mai rungs between me.

"Harmful spirit, she is a harmful spirit, as the saying goes, dragons give birth to dragons, phoenixes give birth to phoenixes, and the son of a mouse will make holes, her family is like that, can she still be okay, Maizi, tell me, if Lao Guan hadn't taken in their family, could she have disappeared for no reason?"

With Uncle Mai's pull, Mrs. Shi scolded and scolded: "That inexplicably hanged the whole person, and caused my family's old history to be like this, woo woo...... We are a good person, stunned and stupid, who will give us this reason, who are we looking for? ”

With this waving feather duster and cursing, Mrs. Shi whined and cried.

I took a look, pushed Uncle Mai away, and with a wave of my hand, I dragged the feather duster in Mrs. Shi's hand and threw it on the kang, and then went to Xiazi.

It was a very dark hut, covered by a curtain of colored cloth, and a man sat cross-legged on a small wooden bed.

The man was black and thin, with gray hair, and looked very old.

Ten fingers twisted a small rope like a dead branch, and it was very clumsy to tie the buckle.

"Look, look, this is Village Chief Shi who was scared stupidly by your Cao family, no one is a person all day long, a ghost is not a ghost, and he lives like a piece of wood."

As I lifted the curtain and took a closer look, Mrs. Shi chased after me and said: "I have been a widow for more than ten years, this is called a widow, there is no support for anything, the pillars of my family have fallen, and I have to serve him, occupy the chicken coop and not lay eggs, you say how difficult it is for me, how difficult it is, who will compensate me for all this, who will compensate our family, you say, you tell me!" "With this chase coming up, it was very torn and screaming, and Mrs. Shi reached out again and didn't want to pull me.

I frowned and opened the old woman, and stepped forward to take the pulse of the head of Shi Village.

At this moment, Village Chief Shi looked up at me in surprise, and then lowered his head deeply.

"No, you're not sick!" I shouted to grab Village Chief Shi, but Village Chief Shi raised his arm and pushed me away and ran to the door......
