It was dark early in the mountains, the house was lit up, and there were no other electrical appliances in the house, only a semiconductor. While Cai Xiaocai and I were fiddling with the radio to find music, Zhu Hongjun walked in, holding a Hessesen wooden box in his hand.

Cai Xiaocai and I looked at each other, and we turned off the radio. Zhu Hongjun put the box on the table and pushed it over: "Look at it." ”

The box was small, about the size of a soap box, and it was covered with quaint patterns engraved with something I couldn't see what it was.

"The keel is in the box?" I asked.

Zhu Hongjun was a little embarrassed and said, "I'll put the keel elsewhere, it's just a box." ”

I'm a little upset, it's all now, and he hasn't said to take out the keel, let's take a look. I was about to touch the box, when the Silver Fox Monk suddenly said, "This thing is not ordinary? ”

"How?" I asked.

The Silver Fox monk said: "There is a breath on it, I can feel it. ”

I was about to ask, Cai Xiaocai opened the box, and it was empty. Zhu Hongjun tilted the box a little and let the light shine inside: "See, the words at the bottom of the box." ”

Cai Xiaocai and I looked hard, and really saw a few lines of small characters, half or three circles smaller than the fly's head, so thin and slight, I couldn't see what it was.

"What is written?" I asked.

Zhu Hongjun said: "At that time, after my father got this thing back, he didn't have time to look at it carefully, but just handed it over to me and let me keep it alive, and then he was arrested until he was shot." Later, many years later, I found out that there were words in it, and I looked for many people with the box and used a lot of high-tech means to see what it was. ”

He got up and went to the cabinet, pulled open the drawer and took out a small yellowed notebook, he sat back and slowly twisted the pages, turning to a page to show us.

It was written with a fountain pen: Yu Yangna stole a piece of keel in the Japanese puppet military camp in February 1935 and gave it to Mr. Hu. Mr. Hu said that this thing is related to the rise and fall of the world. Mr. and the keel died violently overnight, and they were sealed in a wooden box in accordance with his will, and they were treated as destined people.

It was followed by the payment, which was recorded in April of three or five years.

I was taken aback: "This keel was stolen from the Japanese barracks?" ”

"Yes." Zhu Hongjun said: "In the 1934 Yingkou Falling Dragon Incident, the keel was packed by the Kwantung Army, and most of it was brought back to Japan. ”

"Is it really a dragon from Yingkou?" I said, "When I came, Uncle Cai told me that your family's keel belonged to the dragon in Yingkou back then, and later you said that it was your father's family heirloom. I thought he was spreading a lie, but I didn't expect it to come from there. ”

Zhu Hongjun said: "I once went to the site of the falling dragon in Yingkou, visited the local people, and it took a long time to find out about Yang Na, and later I saw a photo of this person in an anti-Japanese memorial hall. He is a member of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation, a native of Jinzhou, Dalian, and a former bandit. There is very little information on the information, only that this person lost contact with him during the encirclement and suppression of the Kwantung Army in 40 years, and his whereabouts are unknown, so he should be dead. Later, I inquired, and there were really very old people who remembered that there was such a person, saying that Yang Na was flying on the grass at that time, and not only the people of the Northeast Anti-Japanese Federation were looking for him, but also the national army of another faction was also recruiting him, saying that this person was extremely feather, and he climbed over the wall and crossed the ridge like no one's land. ”

Cai Xiaocai sighed: "I didn't expect to be a righteous man." ”

I pointed to "Mr. Hu" above and asked, "Who is this person?" ”

Zhu Hongjun shook his head: "I don't know, I can't find out." At that time, the era was too chaotic, unless there was a great reputation, ordinary people died and would not leave a little wave in history. ”

I said: "Let's look at the timeline, first there was a dragon falling in Yingkou, and then the Japanese sealed the keel, Yang Na stole one of them, he didn't keep it, and handed the keel to a Mr. Hu." This Mr. Hu died after getting the keel, and before he died, he asked Yang Na to seal the keel and bury it under the tree pit. And then many years passed, and your father had a strange dream, in which he led him to the place where he was buried, and took out the keel, which has been passed down to this day, in your hands. ”

Zhu Hongjun nodded: "That's the case." ”

Cai Xiaocai suddenly said: "Ziwang, do you say that this Mr. Hu is ......?"

I suddenly had a strange feeling in my heart, as if I was about to blurt out, could this Mr. Hu be ...... At this time, the Silver Fox monk said: "I can feel that there is a very special aura in the box, it should be of the same clan." ”

An electric current rushed up from all over my body, and I said to the Silver Fox Lay Monk in my mind: "Mr. Hu is a fox fairy? ”

"It should be." The silver fox monk said.

Zhu Hongjun didn't understand, seeing that Cai Xiaocai and I seemed to be playing dumb riddles, he hurriedly asked, "Who is Mr. Hu?" ”

Cai Xiaocai looked at me and said, "I have a wonderful feeling, is this Mr. Hu a fox fairy?" ”

I looked at Cai Xiaocai, and at this moment we actually had the same mind and thought together.

"Fox fairy?" Zhu Hongjun is not a fragrant boy who moves poles, and he is very unfamiliar with this.

"It's the fox Chengjing, our Northeast Horse Fairy." Cai Xiaocai said.

Zhu Hongjun was stunned: "No." Out of the horse fairy I know, what Hu Huang often willow smoke, that is the animal fairy attached to the human body, I have not heard that the animal becomes a sperm directly into a human. ”

"Maybe this Mr. Hu is a fragrant boy." Cai Xiaocai said: "Otherwise, how could he trust your father with his dream?" ”

Zhu Hongjun took out a paper cigarette, rolled a shredded cigarette, and shook his head: "He is so awesome, and he can still dream, why did he die?" The message left by Yang Na made it very clear that Mr. Hu died violently. ”

"No matter how great the supernatural power is, it will die. There's a lot we don't know here. I said.

Zhu Hongjun put on a paper cigarette, lit a cigarette with an old-fashioned match, and was about to say something, when suddenly the silver fox monk shouted in his heart: "Not good!" ”

My whole body was numb, and I felt a hot current all over the meridians, I was very familiar with it, this was the great fairy channeling. The silver fox monk stumbled on me, I was uncontrollable, I threw myself forward, and threw Zhu Hongjun to the ground, and at the moment when we fell, the window shattered, and a slender thing broke through the window and was nailed to the wooden wall opposite.

This thing flew in front of Cai Xiaocai's eyes, and she didn't react at all. When we looked, we saw what it was. It was actually an arrow, made of black wood, nailed to the wall, and the tail sound was incessant, buzzing.

If I hadn't pounced on Zhu Hongjun just now, he would have been dead at this moment, and he would definitely have been shot by an arrow.

I shouted, "Side dishes, lie down!" ”

Cai Xiaocai was so frightened that he hurriedly lay down beside me, Zhu Hongjun was worthy of being an old Jianghu, rolled to the wall on the spot, turned off the light casually, and the room was dark.

There was no movement for a long time, and no second arrow came in, and none of us dared to speak for a while, and the atmosphere was extremely tense and depressing.

Zhu Hongjun rolled to the broken window again, pointed to it, and signaled that he wanted to observe it first.

At this time, the silver fox monk was still tricking me, and I cooperated with him, and I rolled to the window. Cai Xiaocai also wanted to come over, and I waved my hand in the extremely faint moonlight outside, signaling her to stay where she was.

Zhu Hongjun and I peeked out from both sides of the window at the same time, and as far as the eye could see, there was no sound outside, and the silence was extremely abnormal, and I couldn't even tell from what direction the arrow was shot in.

Zhu Hongjun and I glanced at each other, and we all counted, this is his enemy who has come to the door. This enemy failed last night and was devoured by the Yin Snake, and he must have the soul of the child to nourish him in three days. forced him to take risks.

This person is really amazing, he doesn't use a knife or a gun, he actually uses a relatively primitive weapon - a bow and arrow, and it is an arrow when it comes up, if there is no silver fox layman, I am afraid he will really let him succeed.

"The people outside have bows." I said softly.

Zhu Hongjun said: "It's not a bow, it's a crossbow." ”

I blinked, hand crossbow? Zhu Hongjun didn't have time to explain, made a gesture, signaling me not to move here, he rolled to the door, gently pushed the door open a gap, and then reached out and took off the leather hat on the wall, put it on the stick, and slowly slammed the door open.

The small slit was opened, and as soon as the hat poked out, there was a "whoosh" sound that broke through the air, and the hat fell suddenly from the stick, and was carried by a black arrow and flew far away, hitting the head of the bed.

The back of my neck is cold, this arrow is too powerful, if a person is hit like this, it is estimated that it can be shot through. Considering such a large strength, it really doesn't look like a bow, so what a big bow, it seems to be really a hand crossbow.

Zhu Hongjun muttered in the dark: "I didn't expect to come so quickly, I thought it was hidden enough here." ”

"What should I do?" I asked in a low voice.

Zhu Hongjun said: "It doesn't matter, he doesn't dare to enter the house, there is a big black in the yard, as long as someone steps in without my permission, it will go up and fight for its life." No matter how high his martial arts are, it is enough for him to drink a pot. ”

Now the inside and outside of the house were so pressed, and the man outside seemed very patient, neither showing his face nor making a sound, not even entering the yard, but lurking in a corner, and we waited in the house lying on our stomachs or looking for cover, not daring to straighten up.

The Silver Fox monk said in his heart: "It seems that the person who came is not a person in the Dao Law, and I can't feel the mana. Why don't I go out and have a look? ”

I think that's not bad, after all, he is a yin god, and ordinary people really can't see him.
