After a few days, the windows on both sides were blocked by stones and bricks, and even the light could not penetrate. Then he plastered the walls with lime and filled in all the holes in the walls.

He also found a sharp kitchen knife, and at night, he hid the kitchen knife in his arms, took a scoop to cover the light, and when his mother murmured, he hurriedly turned on the light, blocked the door and shouted loudly.

After a long while, he left the doorway, deliberately shouting loudly, pretending to enter the room to search.

One day, something resembling a tanuki came out of the crack in the door. He hurriedly raised his knife and slashed, only cutting off one tail. When he saw that he hadn't hit the monster, he was very disappointed.

After daybreak, he followed the trail of blood to look into the past, until he reached a deserted garden.

The vixen did not come that night, and the child was secretly happy.

After a few more days, the merchant returned, and his wife scolded and screamed at him.

The son told his father about his mother's illness and the symptoms of her illness. The merchant was in a hurry, so he asked the doctor to take medicine for his wife, and after a few days, she calmed down. One night, the patient disappeared again.

Later, the father and son retrieved her from another room, but her madness returned.

The merchant asked the Taoist priest to exorcise evil spirits and ask God for blessing, but to no avail.

One evening, the merchant's son crept into the deserted garden, and lay down in the deep grass, when suddenly the voice of a man was heard.

He brushed aside the grass and saw two people drinking, and a bearded servant waiting beside him with a flask.

The merchant's son saw that the bearded man had all the limbs of a man, except for a tail behind his buttocks.

The merchant's son wanted to go home, but fearing that the old fox would find out, had to spend the night in the garden.

It was only when dawn did he creep out of the grass and return home.

When his father asked him where he was at night, he lied that he was staying at his uncle's house.

On this day, the merchant went out into the street to run errands, and the child followed. He saw a fox tail hanging from a shop, so he pestered his father to buy one.

He asked his father again to withdraw some money, went to the hotel and bought a bottle of liquor, and stored it in the store. Then he went to his uncle's house.

My uncle went out hunting, and only my aunt was at home.

He said: "There are rats in the house, and my father asked me to come and ask for some powder for poisonous beasts. "My aunt opened the medicine box and wrapped some for him.

He saw that it was too little, and when his aunt made snacks for him, he hurriedly opened the medicine box and wrapped another packet.

He came out of his aunt's house, quietly poured the poison into the wine, and still kept it in the hotel.

After that, he roamed the streets every day, waiting for the right time.

One day, he noticed the bearded servant walking among the crowds, so he secretly followed, and at last found an opportunity to talk to the man. He asked where the man lived, and he replied, "Kitamura." The man also asked him where he lived.

He smiled and said, "My family has lived in a cave for generations, don't you?" and the man questioned his family. He said, "I am from the fox family.

"Looks like I've seen you with two sons, don't you?" the man looked incredulous.

The merchant's son lifted up his robe, showed his false tail a little, and said, "We are among the human beings, and we cannot get rid of this plaything, which is really hateful." ”

The man asked, "What is the matter with coming into the street?"

He said, "My father sent me to buy wine. ”

The man said, "I'm here to buy wine, too." It's just that I'm very poor, I don't have money to buy alcohol, and I still steal it mostly. but he was sent by his master, and he could not help himself. ”

He asked, "Who is the master of your house?"

The man said, "These are the two husbands you saw last time." When he had finished speaking, he was about to leave, and said, "Don't delay my mission." ”

He said: "It's hard to steal wine, I just bought a bottle of wine, put it in the store, and I'll give it to you." I still have a little money in my bag, so I can buy it again, don't worry. We are a family, what does it matter if we have a bottle of wine? I will have a few drinks with you when I have time in the future. ”

The merchant's son accompanied the man to the hotel, handed him the wine he had stored, and went his separate ways.

That night, his mother slept all night without making a noise, and only he knew that there was a reason for this.

As soon as the morning dawned, he told his father what he had done, and took him with him to the deserted garden to check on it, and saw two foxes dead in the pavilion, one fox dead in the grass, and the bottle still on the side.

My father was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

The son said, "This vixen is the most psychic, and if my plan is spoken, it will know it." ”

His father praised him happily: "Good boy, you are really a wise star who deals with foxes!"

So, father and son came back with the fox on their backs. One of the tails was shortened, and the scar was still clearly left on it.

The merchant Xiang He saw that his son Xiang Qi was capable and strategic, so he asked the master to teach him to ride a horse and shoot arrows.

A long time ago, there was a fox in Dabie Mountain, absorbing the essence of heaven and earth, the aura of the sun and the moon, after seven hundred years, he cultivated into a fine, can speak human words, and can stand and walk, but he will not become a human appearance, and the big tail cannot be hidden.

On the day of cultivation, the fox thought that after cultivating for 700 years, eating wild grass every day, his stomach was hungry, he had never eaten meat for 600 years, and he had forgotten what it was like to eat meat.

The vixen walked for a day and a night, and found a small village at the foot of the mountain, which was not very large, with twenty families, and more than a hundred men, women, and children combined.

The vixen looked at the people coming and going, and his saliva flowed out, so he hid in the hollow of a big tree on the edge of the village, waiting for an opportunity to catch someone to eat.

There was a carpenter Xue in the village, 30 years old, his house was on the edge of the village, and on this day, a family in the next village wanted to marry their daughter, and asked him to help make furniture.

Before leaving, he said to his wife and two daughters: "I will go to make furniture this time, and it will take half a month to come back." I heard that there are fox spirits in the mountains, you should pay attention to safety at home, an ink fountain of my family's ancestors, on the hall, I heard the elders say that it can catch monsters, if you meet a fox spirit, you can use it to catch. With that, he picked up his axe, planer, and some tools and went out.

The two daughters of the carpenter's family, the eldest is ten years old, the younger is eight years old, they are both smart and clever, they are catching stones in the yard to play, and the mother came over and said: "Dani, Xiaoni, there is no salt at home, I want to go to Feng Erniang's house to borrow some salt, you play obediently at home, don't go out." ”

My mother looked up at the sky, and the sun had already set on the other side of the mountain, and she saw only the red glow in the sky, and she said, "When I go out, you plug the door of the yard and go into the house to play." ”

The two little girls nodded obediently, and when their mother went out, they closed the door and went into the house.

The carpenter's daughter-in-law went to Feng Erniang's house to borrow salt, but Erniang's family didn't have much salt, so she had to go to Sister Yun's house to borrow it, but Sister Yun's house didn't have it, and in the end, it was Jiang Sange's family who borrowed salt, and when she returned to the gate of the yard, it was already completely dark.

Dani and Xiaoni have already lit the candles in the room, waiting for their mother to come back and cook.

The light came out of the window, and the carpenter's daughter-in-law saw it at the gate of the yard, and she was very relieved, thinking that these two children were really sensible.

She was about to knock on the yard door, when she suddenly heard "rustling" footsteps behind her, and when she looked back, she didn't find anyone, but heard a child crying under a tree not far away.

The daughter-in-law, who is also a carpenter, was kind, and was scared when she heard the footsteps and was about to run away, but when she heard the child crying, she couldn't help but walk over to see it.

This tree is so big that the three of them can't hold it, the branches stretch far away, and the leaves are dense, and I heard the old people in the village say that it has been more than a hundred years.

The carpenter's daughter-in-law went to the bottom of the tree, and it was darker, and she couldn't see her fingers, and the child's crying was no longer there, and she said, "Whose child is there?" But no one answered her.

She knocked on the trunk again, and said, "Is there anyone here?"

The carpenter's daughter-in-law is a well-known good daughter-in-law in the village, not only good-looking, but also very good to her neighbors, and usually quite bold.

She circled around the tree again, but still didn't find any children, so she had to walk back, thinking as she went, "What a strange thing!"

Suddenly she heard a "tom" behind her, as if something had fallen from a tree, and she was just about to look back to see what was going on, when a pair of furry hands grabbed her neck.

She struggled hard, but the hands were too strong, and they were pinching more and more tightly, and she couldn't scream if she wanted to, and slowly she didn't know anything.

The one who jumped down from the tree was the vixen.

It turned out that when the fox spirit saw the carpenter go out, he knew that there was no man in the house, so he secretly ran to the courtyard wall to eavesdrop and peek, and it found that the carpenter's daughter-in-law had white and tender skin, and she was also very good-looking, and her saliva was all over the ground.

The vixen ate the carpenter's daughter-in-law's arms, breasts, and thighs, and was very full.

"This woman's meat is delicious!" the fox burped, and then thought of the two little girls in the yard.

"The two little girls should be left for breakfast tomorrow. ”

The vixen, who turned into the mother of the little sister, put on the clothes of the carpenter's daughter-in-law and the hat of the carpenter's daughter-in-law, and shouted at the gate of the courtyard in the tone of the carpenter's daughter-in-law: "I'm back, open the door quickly!"
