Fang Rui, who got up the next day, was a little out of energy. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoAfter that incident last night, it took a long time for Fang Rui to fall asleep. Originally, last night's incident was just a small episode, and it was not enough to scare Fang Rui like that, but what really scared Fang Rui was not only the paper money flying in the sky.

At that time, after Fang Rui took down the yellow sheet paper that was blown to his face by the wind, he remembered what his father had said to him before going to bed, and an inexplicable sense of fear hit Fang Rui's heart, and Fang Rui's heart was pounding. He didn't know why he was afraid of being like this just a few pieces of paper money, like a cool breeze blowing on this big summer night.

Fang Rui was about to hurry back to the house, but before he could lift his feet, he heard a sound of footsteps from somewhere outside the courtyard.

The footsteps were close and far away, and I couldn't really hear them, but they did come from the footsteps. And the footsteps are mixed, not like the footsteps of one person, but also not like the footsteps of a group of people. Just listening to the footsteps is about two or three people.

The people of Shazipo are extremely superstitious, which can be seen from the fact that most of the part-time workers come back to pay tribute to their ancestors during the mid-year festival in July. So, on this day when the ghost door is about to open wide, who will leave the house in the middle of the night? According to the custom, you will not leave the house after nine o'clock in the evening, so who is walking outside now?

Fang Rui thought about it carefully, and felt more and more that it was cold in the courtyard, so he ran away and ran back to the house and closed the door.

The next day, Fang Ruicai talked to Fang Yongshou about this matter, and Zuo Xiaolan was cooking in the kitchen at that time. When it comes to cooking, it's just heating up a large table of leftover rice from yesterday. Fang Rui and Fang Yongshou sat on the pit chatting, and Grandma Fang Rui sat on the other side, listening to the conversation between the two. Xiao Yi sat at the dining table by himself, pouring tea and drinking by himself.

Don't look at grandma's age, but don't say how good the ears are. No, hearing the footsteps of Fang Rui and his son chatting about last night, grandma couldn't help but interject and said, "This is the sound of the mountain." ”

Fang Yongshou naturally knew what Shan Xiang meant, and he smoked a cigarette on the side and didn't speak, but Fang Rui didn't know the meaning of Shan Xiang, so he asked, and his grandmother explained: "There are always some strange sounds in the depths of the mountains behind our Shazipo Village. The people in our village said that it was the sound of the holy mountain, so those animals knelt on the ground and did not dare to offend the mountain god. It's called a mountain ring. ”

Fang Yongshou took a heavy puff of cigarette and said, "What is the sound of the mountain, it is the Yin soldier who borrowed the way!" ”

Fang Rui had never heard of the word Shanxiang, but the Yin Soldier knew it. Obviously, Xiao Hui also knew, and only heard him say: "I've heard of this, and legend has it that there is such a thing in the Forbidden City in the capital." Whenever there is a thunderstorm, under the lightning and thunder, there will often be a flash of palace maids, eunuchs, and even people's cries, which makes people feel creepy. ”

Fang Yongshou snorted in his nose, obviously disapproving of Xiao Xuan's statement: "Sha Zipo, I don't know how many years ago, I experienced a big battle, or a defeat, when all the officers and soldiers were killed, and their heads were cut off to make Jingguan. Does Kyokan know? ”

Fang Rui and Xiao Yi shook their heads together.

Fang Yongshou continued with an expression of "young people now": "Jingguan, it is Rentou Mountain, in order to show off martial arts, gather enemy corpses, and seal the high mound made of soil. ”

Grandma coughed at this time and said to Fang Yongshou, "Don't scare the baby." So Fang Yongshou stopped talking and smoked a cigarette by himself.

Although Fang Yongshou's words made Fang Rui and the others feel a trace of a terrifying atmosphere circulating, but the two of them were also people who had defeated zombies, how could they be scared so easily, so Fang Rui continued to ask: "What does the Yin Soldier Corridor have to do with Seven and a Half Months. Why do I hear such strange footsteps? ”

This time, it was Xiao Hui who answered first, and he asked rhetorically: "Have you forgotten the method of the five senses that Mr. taught you?" Fang Rui suddenly remembered what Xi Shan said to himself, the method of the five senses he taught himself, the first item was to smell ghost sounds. Could it be that what I heard last night was the footsteps of a ghost?

Thinking of this, Fang Rui felt a creepy feeling even more.

Fang Yongshou glanced at Xiao Xuan, and then continued to explain his question to Fang Rui: "In the middle of July, the ghost door is wide open. The ghosts wandering in the human world all want to be reincarnated through the ghost gate, and some ghosts want to come out of the human world. There are also some ghosts without karma who have returned home to visit their relatives with the permission of King Yama. July is such a chaotic month. Therefore, during this month, people avoid rushing to the night road, and the ghosts at this time are extremely manic and aggressive. ”

"Dad, you haven't said that the Yin Soldier borrowed the way."

"Didn't you say that?" Fang Yongshou took another puff of cigarette, as if he was seriously thinking about whether he had said this matter, and after confirming that he had not said it, he continued: "Shazipo, after experiencing a defeat back then, it has fallen since then, and until now there are only so many dozens of families, after all, the officers and soldiers at that time have been slaughtered, and only the elderly, children, and women are left, and there are only dozens of people who are not in Shazipo. ”

"From then on, every July, there will be footsteps around our sand slope. But no one could see who was walking. Legend has it that the dead army did not want to be reincarnated, but only wanted to continue to protect Shazipo for an endless time. It is also said that the army did not know that it was dead, and would wake up every year when the ghost gate was opened, gather troops to resist foreign enemies, and pass by here. Some people even say that this army is a demon who ran out of the ghost gate, and because he hated the world, he came to take revenge. ”

"Dad, how do you know so much?" Fang Rui asked with some curiosity. Because in his impression, his father was a proper peasant, and he shouldn't know so much about these strange things.

Fang Yongshou smiled, put out the smoke pot, and walked out of the house with his hands behind his back. There was a hint of mystery on the figure.

At this time, her mother Zuo Xiaolan walked out with the last dish that was hot, and happened to see Fang Yongshou's backlit back standing at the door: "Where are you going?" Come back for dinner! ”

Fang Yongshou hurriedly walked in, and that trace of mystery disappeared as if it had been dried by the sun.

"You two should go wash your hands and eat!"

"Okay!" (To be continued.) )
