My grandmother was taken aback, why, although the woman at the head of the bed looked at her eyes, but my grandmother knew the man behind her, and this man was Li Sheng from Hewaner Village!

My grandmother hurriedly sat up from the bed, looked at Li Sheng, and then at the woman, and was just about to ask how they found it, when she heard Li Sheng standing behind the woman speak, "Bai Xiangu, I came here today to see your whole family, we want to leave, say goodbye to you." ”

"You two?" My grandmother looked at the woman again, confused.

The woman smiled faintly, "Bai Xiangu, I am Xiaoqing." ”

My grandmother was shocked.

The woman hurriedly said, "Bai Xiangu, don't be afraid of ......" As she said, this woman, that is, this Xiaoqing, glanced back at Li Sheng, "I met a few days ago...... A few days ago, they starved to death, and their whole family starved to death, and his mother and his brother left first, and we and my wife came to you......"

Hearing the woman say this, my grandmother was not surprised, and nodded very calmly, realizing that she might be dreaming at this time.

I heard Xiaoqing continue: "When we came, we searched on the nearby mountain, and five miles north from your village, there is a small mountain col, and there is a small cave in the mountain pass, and there is food in the cave, which can save the lives of your whole family......"

As soon as my grandmother heard about "food", she immediately came to her senses, and her eyes looked straight at Xiaoqing, but she was even hungrier in her stomach.

Xiaoqing smiled again, I have to say that this female ghost is really beautiful, and her smile is full of charm, and my grandmother is a little jealous when she sees it, "You and your family can go into the cave to dig food at noon tomorrow, and it is better not to go at other times." As she spoke, without waiting for my grandmother to speak, Xiaoqing took Li Sheng's hand back and said again, "Bai Xiangu, this is a little reward from the two of us husband and wife, let's go." After speaking, he pulled Li Shengyi around and disappeared in front of my grandmother's eyes out of thin air.

The female ghost Xiaoqing and Li Sheng came and walked fast, my grandmother stared at the place where they disappeared for a while, and when she came back to her senses, she raised her hand and pinched her arm vigorously, it hurt very much, it was not a dream.

This made my grandmother wonder, how could she see a ghost as a big living person? After pondering it again, I understood, now that I am hungry, I only have half a life left, and the yang energy on my body is insufficient, and the yin energy is heavy in the middle of the night, and it is possible to see ghosts.

Ghosts don't lie, and the female ghost Xiaoqing said that there is food in the mountains, so there must be food.

My grandmother was busy pushing my grandfather next to her to wake up.

In fact, my grandfather woke up hungry a long time ago, but he didn't squeak with his eyes closed, and my grandfather didn't treat Li Sheng very well in his heart, which may be because when Li Sheng was recuperating at my grandfather's house before, my grandmother was too good to him, and my grandfather was jealous. Men are actually like this, and they can't see their wives being good to other men.

My grandfather also sat up from the bed, because it was cold and he slept in his clothes. My grandmother was about to speak, but my grandfather waved his hand to stop her, "Don't say it, I heard it." ”

"When I heard it, I didn't get up to say hello." My grandmother pushed my grandfather in disgust.

My grandfather lifted the quilt and got out of bed, "I don't have the habit of greeting ghosts." As he spoke, he didn't light the oil lamp, but when he touched the cane beside the bed, he put it on his crutches and walked to the door.

My grandmother hurriedly asked him, "Why are you going?" ”

My grandfather didn't look back, "What do you say I'm going to do, digging grain, didn't you listen to the female ghost, there is food in the mountains!" ”

"You're crazy, don't look at what time it is, it's late in the middle of the night......" My grandmother also hurriedly got out of bed.

"I'm crazy, I heard from the people in the village during the day that the people in the south have eaten their wives and children, maybe one day I'll slaughter you and eat you when you're hungry."

"You dare!"

My grandfather came to the other room on crutches to find my grandfather and grandmother, and after waking up the old couple, he told the female ghost Xiaoqing what he had just said. My grandfather's meaning, I found Wang Caoyu's family and immediately went into the mountains to dig food. However, my grandfather reprimanded him severely, and my grandfather said, "It's the middle of the night, the mountains are evil, who dares to enter the mountains, you kid won't die if you want food!" ”

Early the next morning, my grandfather came to Wang Caoyu's house in person with a crutch. If it is left in normal times, my grandfather's body and bones will not need crutches at all, at this time, I am really hungry.

My grandfather and Wang Caoyu, the two old men, are quite able to stand it, they have no goods in their stomachs, but they are more energetic than young people.

As soon as my grandfather said that there was grain in the mountains, Wang Caoyu was stupid, and in Wang Caoyu's original words, he didn't even remember what the grain looked like.

Wang Caoyu's youngest son, Wang Shicheng, is almost fifty years old this year, he has three sons and two daughters, the eldest son is Wang Xiaoshun, the second son Wang Xiaoer, the third son Wang Xiaosan, and the fourth and fifth are daughters. A few days ago, the little queen Xiao Wu starved to death, only four years old, afraid that the corpse would be dug out for others to eat, so she was secretly buried in the backyard of her own house.

Wang Shicheng's eldest son, Wang Xiaoshun, is twenty-one years old this year and has not yet started a family, and his second son Wang Xiaoer, who is nineteen years old, and Wang Xiaosan, who is sixteen years old.

Hearing my grandfather say that there is food in the mountains, a large family is convinced.

In order to be able to muster some strength to dig up grain in the mountains, the two families took out all the stocks in their homes, put a big pot in the courtyard and boiled them, and a group of people broke the kettle and ate a meal.

After eating, I had a little strength, and I originally planned to take Wang Xiaoshun and the three brothers into the mountain, but my grandfather actually had to follow. My grandfather's legs and feet were inconvenient, and it was difficult to walk on flat ground, let alone on mountain roads, but this time no one could twist him, so he had to go with him.

Several people followed the route said by the female ghost Xiaoqing, and soon came to the small mountain col five miles north of the village.

Originally, this small col was quite secluded, and the whole was hidden by trees and weeds. However, at this time, all the trees died due to the loss of bark, and the weeds had already been dug up by the villagers, and in winter, the small mountain col was exposed. It didn't take much effort for a few people to find the cave that the female ghost Xiaoqing said in the small mountain pass.

The cave is not big, less than three feet in diameter, and people can barely climb into it on their knees, and when they look inside, it is eerie and terrifying. But at this time, in addition to knowing that they are hungry, they don't know what it is to be afraid, and when they think that there is food in it, they dare to drill into it, even if they dare to drill into it.

My grandfather put down the crutches in his hand, hung a horse lantern around his neck, and was the first to lie on the ground and get in, followed by the three Wang Xiaoshun brothers.

According to my grandfather, the cave was a wine bottle belly, with a small mouth and a big mouth, and the more you drilled in, the more spacious it became.

My grandfather and my grandmother were waiting at the entrance of the cave, and it didn't take much effort, Wang Xiaoshun quarreled in the cave, "Grandpa, grandma, a lot of food!" ”

Is there really food!?

When my grandfather and my grandmother heard this, they were more excited than looking for gold, and my grandmother almost didn't cry, calling my grandfather and a few of them, hurry up and get all the food out!

When they came, they brought a few sacks of burlap, which they intended to carry for food, and this was when they finally came in handy.

My grandfather and Wang Xiaoshun were three brothers, tossing from the morning until it was dark, I don't know how many times they crawled back and forth in the hole, their knees were worn out, and the grain inside was dragged out little by little by them in burlap bags.

The grain was a mess, with wheat, corn, and soybeans, and it was piled up like a hill at the mouth of the cave.

My grandfather's chin trembled with excitement when he looked at these grains, "These grains are enough for our two families to eat for a year!" ”

My grandmother dismantled two of them into hemp rope and pierced the other ones, and filled each bag with less than half a bag, so that the three Wang Xiaoshun brothers could carry it home while it was dark.

At this time, the three brothers did not know where the strength came from, and each one was like a calf fed with fine food, but the bag was too little. My grandmother persuaded them to put less decoration in the bag and carry it back and forth a few more times, because it was difficult to walk on the mountain road and would be tired.

The three brothers don't care about this, each of them fills the bag in his hand, carries it on his shoulder, grits his teeth and leaves.

My grandfather can still help by pouring food out of the hole, but he can't carry food down the mountain. My grandfather told Wang Xiaoshun and the three of them that if they meet someone on the road, don't say what's in the bag, otherwise they won't be able to carry it home.

When my grandfather said this, my grandfather and my grandmother were listening to each other, and they were speechless.

As the saying goes, if people don't do it for themselves, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed. At this time, everyone is a mud bodhisattva crossing the river and it is difficult to protect themselves, even if the people in our family are kind and selfless, there is a limit, although there is a lot of food, but it is only enough for two families to eat, and it can't save a village. Besides, this small village is not Sanwangzhuang, and the feelings are not deep, and my grandfather is not as selfless as the villagers here.

Wang Xiaoshun heard my grandfather say this, and hurriedly nodded and said, don't worry, grandpa, let's talk about the bodhisattva soil on our backs.

By this time, it was already dark, and the people in the village had already fallen asleep, but no one actually saw it.

The mountain was overcast, and my grandfather was afraid that something evil would happen to the three of them on the road, so he asked my grandmother to accompany them down the mountain. My grandfather and my grandfather stayed in the col to guard the grain.

Be brief. After the three brothers carried it several times, the night was deep, dark and cold, and the mountain col began to become unclean, with blue ghost fires running everywhere, and a few whimperes were heard from time to time in the distance, and I didn't know if it was a wild wolf in the mountain, or a lonely ghost, anyway, how panicked and panicked it was.

On the way, my grandmother held a wicker in one hand and a peach wedge in the other, protecting the three brothers with a twelve-point spirit.

In the mountain col, my grandfather set up a small protective array next to the grain, and stood in the formation with my grandfather, both of whom pulled out the big box and carried it in their hands.

There was nothing to do all night, until the sky was getting brighter, and the food in the col was carried home by the three Wang Xiaoshun brothers, and my grandfather didn't let them carry the rest of the food, because the people in the village came out at dawn, and it was troublesome for people to see it.

On this day, the two families opened a full meal of foreign meat, but this also led to a tragedy. Wang Shicheng's youngest son, Wang Xiaosan, died because he ate too much.

At this time, the dead people in the family are not so sad, when will they not die? Who doesn't die? If they had stayed for the first few days, they wouldn't even have the strength to cry. The whole family buried Wang Xiaosan and his sister together.

In the evening, when I came to carry the grain again, it was still my grandmother who accompanied the two brothers, and my grandfather and my grandfather looked at the grain, because there was one person missing, and they carried all the rest of the grain back when it was bright the next day.

There are many people in Wang Caoyu's family, and there are few people in my grandfather's family, so the grain king Caoyu's family wants more than half, and my grandfather's family wants a small half.

The two families were very happy, but they didn't dare to eat openly, and they didn't know how long the famine would last.

Three days later, in the middle of the night, my grandmother woke up from her sleep again, this time not from hunger, but from the noise of cries coming from the yard.

My grandmother didn't alarm my grandfather, quietly got out of bed, walked lightly to the window, pushed the window open a thin crack and looked into the yard, and was immediately startled!

Then he saw that the courtyard was full of people, dressed in black clothes and with small pointed hats on their heads, some old and some young, standing in the courtyard one by one and weeping.

Where did so many people come from, why did they come to our yard and cry?

My grandmother had the courage to open the door and walked out, and the people in the yard saw my grandmother come out, like a mouse seeing a cat, and scattered in a hurry. There was an old man with a white beard who ran a little slower, and my grandmother caught up and grabbed him, "Old man, what are you doing here?" Why do you cry in the yard in the middle of the night? ”

As soon as the white-bearded old man turned around, my grandmother looked at him in the face and gasped sharply.

I saw that the white-bearded old man actually had a mouse face, and there was hair on his face, except for the goatee on his chin, and there were whiskers on both sides of his mouth that were horizontal like cats.

Is this human? My grandmother hurriedly let go of him.

The white-bearded old man looked at my grandmother, and said with tears on his face: "Bai Xiangu, you robbed our family's food, and you still don't allow us to cry?" -The Last Ghost Hunter-
