Legend has it that there is a kind of rouge that is made from the blood of the deceased, and whoever applies this rouge will become the appearance of the deceased during his lifetime

When Xing Ruyi woke up from his sleep, he happened to hear the sound of selling outside the door. She rubbed her eyes, went out, and came out into the street. At the corner of the street, there stood an old lady with silver and white hair, but she was wearing a very black dress. The old lady's trouser legs were so wide that they almost covered the entire surface of her feet, and only when she walked around did she show a little of the surface of her feet. The shoes were also black on a black background, but they suddenly showed off a red lotus. The old lady was selling needlework and thread, and when she saw Xing Ruyi, she took out a box of rouge from the bottom of the basket.

"Girl, try this rouge, you will definitely be more beautiful when you put it on."

Xing Ruyi thought that he was not a person who was so easily seduced, but at this time, as if he was enchanted, he walked up to the old lady uncontrollably with his feet, took out the money, and bought the box of rouge.

The box is an ordinary rouge box, but the corners are a little worn, and it looks like it has been used for many years. When it is opened, a touch of vision is striking, rippling red, which makes people obsessed. Xing Ruyi stretched out his finger and dipped it in, slowly smearing it on his cheek. Look in the mirror, it does look good.

He was rejoicing, but his face began to get hot, but wherever the rouge was smeared, there was still a trace of white smoke, and after a while, most of his face was corroded.

"Ahh Xing Ruyi screamed in surprise and threw the mirror in his hand out.

"Ruyi! Wake up! ”

"Yin Chensi?"

Xing Ruyi opened his eyes, and in the dark pupils, the fox's anxious, eager, and somewhat worried face was reflected.

"Yin Chensi, why are you here? And on this day, why is it dark? ”

Xing Ruyi struggled to get up, only to realize that his right foot seemed to be stuck somewhere.

"Ruyi, are you okay?"

"I" Xing Ruyi looked at the fox blankly, and the slightly cold foreign object in her hand made her bow her head.

In the palm of his hand, he held a box of rouge. The frayed corners, the old patterns, reminded her of her burning, corroded face.

"Yin Chensi, my face! Is my face gone? ”

"Ruyi, don't panic! I am here! I'm here! I've always been here! The fox first hugged Xing Ruyi gently, and then reminded her: "Yin Yuan is also here, don't scare him!" ”

"But Yin Chensi, what should I do?" Xing Ruyi covered his face tightly with his hands, looking pitiful and helpless, "My face is gone, am I becoming terrible now?" ”

"It's not scary, it's not scary at all!" The fox first comforted softly, and then conjured up a mirror: "Look, your face is fine." ”

In the mirror, Xing Ruyi's face was not rotten, but there was a dark cyan spot on each side of his cheek.

"What is this?" Xing Ruyi pointed to his face: "Don't tell me, this is a birthmark, a birthmark that I grew out of hindsight!" ”

"Of course not!" The fox looked at Xing Ruyi and said slowly: "This is a corpse spot!" ”

"Corpse spots?" Xing Ruyi scratched his head in frustration: "How long do I have to die to form such a big corpse spot?" No, I don't have it on my hands, I don't have it on my arms, I can't see it on my legs now, I shouldn't have it, why do I have it on my face? Besides, I'm dead, but I've been reborn, I'm a soul wearer, even Hades acquiesced, why do I still have corpse spots? ”

"Ruyi, be quiet, listen to me slowly, okay?"

"Not good!" Xing Ruyi didn't care about any image at this time, so he simply sat on the ground and pouted angrily: "I have corpse spots on my face, and you still want me to listen to you slowly." Do you think your story is good, or are you in the mood to listen to it right now? ”

The fox smiled and petted Ruyi's head dotingly. She is such a character, a big thing, when it comes to her mouth, it doesn't seem to be so serious. He was worried just now, but he was a thousand-year-old fox's heart.

"Ruyi, you have fallen on someone else's way! The corpse spot is not yours, but someone else's. ”

After the fox reminded him, Xing Ruyi remembered. Those memories that had disappeared seemed to be being quickly reassembled, and they all came back to my mind.

Xing Ruyi remembered that she was watching the fox go out after falling asleep. The intention is obvious, she wants to go to the western suburbs to find the Wei Shumou who has eaten a lot of children, she wants to throw him to the eighteenth layer of hell to suffer, let the ghost cha pick his skin every day, pump his tendons, refine his bones and blood into oil, and nourish the flowers in bloom on both sides of the Yellow Spring.

But after leaving the city, Xing Ruyi regretted it. She regretted that she was reckless and went to the western suburbs single-handedly. Even if she has ghost skills and is not afraid of those lonely ghosts, if there are not ghosts hidden in this night, but villains, with her three-legged cat-like skills, she is afraid that it will be difficult to get out of the whole body.

The farther west she went, the darker the night became, and by the time she got here, she couldn't see the road ahead. I only felt that the weeds around me were overgrown, and I couldn't see even a trace of light above my head. When he was hesitating to wait for dawn to continue walking, his feet suddenly sank, and his body immediately fell to the right, and the lantern he was holding in his hand, which was not very troublesome, was completely extinguished.

I didn't look at the yellow calendar when I went out, and I did things on impulse. Xing Ruyi looked at the black lantern and felt that he had finally paid the corresponding price for his willfulness. What made her feel even more that she should curse herself was that as an ancient, when she went out to walk at night, she actually forgot to carry the fire fold for ignition, which was really naïve and stupid enough.

After thinking about this, she glanced at the lantern with some reluctance and threw it aside. With a flick of his fingertips, he pinched out a purple-blue ghost fire. Although the flames are a little cold, they can recognize the surrounding scenery and frighten those ghosts, animals, or people who hide in the dead grass and do not have bad intentions.

After blowing the ghost fire even bigger, Xing Ruyi began to try to pull his feet out of the sink. The soil beneath his feet was a little soft, mixed with something other than rotting branches and leaves. When I looked down and made out it, I realized that it was the bones of some people and animals. Xing Ruyi is not good at dissecting, but he can also identify that those bones do not belong to the same person or the same animal. In other words, she was now stepping on a mass grave.

In more official terms, this is a mass grave. There are usually three types of people who are buried here, one is like a beggar who has no intention of relying on during his lifetime, the other is a murderer who is lonely and helpless after death, and the other is an innocent person who was killed by the court and did not have a family to help collect the body. But no matter which of these three categories it is, it has enough anger and resentment, so this mass grave is also the place where the yin qi is the heaviest in the world.

In later generations, land was expensive, and places like mass graves were mostly built into schools and hospitals, and with the help of the gathered popularity, they were suppressed and the balance of yin and yang was adjusted. Thirty or fifty years later, when yin and yang are reconciled, the land will become a good land again.
