There are hundreds of families in Alpaca Village, and it is not small to say that it is small, but there are more than 20 families living at the foot of the mountain in the southwest corner, and the rest are all in this village, there are not many people with the surname Yang in the village, only a few, and the others have the surname Hong and the surname Ma, and this family is surnamed Ma, and the middle-aged man is named Ma Shunhong,

Ma Shunhong stood at the door and teased me, he was very talkative, but there was a bitter taste in his words, he had a wife and an elderly father at home, and also had a son, but after his son became a soldier, he rarely came back, and the family had to look forward to the letter sent back by his son.

In the middle of the conversation, Ma Shunhong invited me into the house and said that he could rest at his house tonight.

When I walked into the hall, I found that it was not that there was no light in their house, but that the wick was very low, and the flame was a little bit, and the whole room was groggy and couldn't see clearly, but I could see Ma Shunhong's dinner clearly, but ,,, it made people feel a little sour.

There is a very dilapidated table of eight immortals in the hall, a white-haired old man sits on the north side, the old man's thin body is very thin, but his eyes are still a little bright, Ma Shunhong introduced my identity, the old man opened his mouth and smiled at me, and opposite is a middle-aged woman in a light green coarse cloth shirt, although her hair is combed neatly, but it is obvious that the dirt on her head is very heavy, as if she has not washed her hair for a long time, this is Ma Shunhong's wife, when she saw me coming in, she hurriedly got up to find a wooden stool for me to sit on,

This is a warm and smooth family, what makes my heart sour, is the meal they eat at the moment, three dishes, only one dish can see the green leaves, the other two are white vegetable roots, this kind of dish I have also eaten, it is a kind of wild vegetable that grows in the mountains, when the master and Bu Yique walked all the way, did not eat this thing, this is really not something to eat when they will choose to eat, because it is not delicious, but a little astringent and a little bitter,

In a small frame, there are a few black and thin nests, and in a small soup can, there is porridge water that can be seen clearly, a few rice grains that can be counted, half sinking and half floating in it, all ,,,this shows a problem, life can only be hard, such a poor family, or the first time I have encountered it, I can only say, it is too bitter,,,

Ma Shunhong smiled a little embarrassedly: "It's been three years since I started the famine, and what I can eat can't be planted, and what I can grow can't be harvested, alas." ”

I suddenly came to my senses, pointed to the crying sound coming from outside, and said, "Brother Ma, is it possible ,,,that the villagers here are all like this because they don't have food to eat?" ”

When Ma Shunhong heard this, he sighed strangely, and said: "I can't go on, children can't eat, let alone adults, even if they have two dollars in their hands, there is no market town for dozens of miles, and there is nowhere to buy it." ”

At this moment, Ma Shunhong's old father interjected with a wry smile: "I have never seen a continuous drought, and after this year, it will be three years,,。 ”

Hearing this, I was suddenly a little stunned, because I remembered the words of the strange old man on the hill, he said that even if I entered the village, I might not be able to find food, and now it has really come true, this strange old man,,, he has not entered the village at all, how can he know that the people here can't eat?

I still don't know anything about the identity of this strange old man, I don't even know where he came from, I just know that his practice is unfathomable, and his temper is strange, it can be said that among the people I have seen, the most treacherous and cunning old man, and also, why did he save me in the land temple, and he can still meet him here, where is he going, is he also going to the northern Sichuan area, is it that these two encounters are created by chance, or is there something conclusive in the dark,

I don't know,,,

But if you are fated to meet him again in the future, you must be more careful, otherwise you may owe a lot of debts one day.

Slightly distracted, I hurriedly asked, "Brother Ma, hasn't it rained here in the past three years, what's going on here?" ”

Ma Shunhong was just about to speak, but the old father on the side suddenly interjected with interest: "Don't you dare to go out to say this, don't dare to go out and say it,,, someone has married a goblin in the mountains, and now even God doesn't care about this land, no matter what,,。 ”

Maybe it was because of my puzzled expression, Ma Shunhong shook his head and smiled bitterly: "This is the words of the sheep and half immortals, and now this matter has been recognized by everyone, but what is the specific reason, no one knows, hehe~~~"

It turns out that Ma Shunhong said that the sheep is half a fairy, is a family in the east of the village, the surname is sheep, the big name is Yang Qianren, it is said that the ancestors of Yang Qianren found a broken book in which place, who can read and write at that time, it is also amazing, but it is a pity that the ancestors of Yang Qianren are blind with black eyes, and they don't know one.

But when it comes to the generation of Yang Qianren, I don't know whether the ancestors are smoking or holding the fairy feet, but Yang Qianren can recognize the broken book, and write and draw all day long at home, tinkering with some gods and ghosts, and, after a short time, he can actually give the neighbors to manage the "nosy", that is, who recruited dirty things, whose old man died, just ask Yang Qianren to take a look, see, not to mention, Yang Qianren really did not disappoint the villagers, one said a quasi, one broke one,

In this way, the name of the sheep thousand people gradually spread, and everyone slowly changed the name of the sheep thousand people to the sheep half fairy, the so-called half fairy, in ancient times is to refer to the fortune teller word of the big gentleman, the legend has a half fairy body, pinching the fingers to know the past and the future, the view of yin and yang, the good luck and the evil, can be respected as half fairy,

And Ma Shunhong's old father just mentioned that someone married a goblin, according to Ma Shunhong, it was pointed out by the sheep and the half-fairy, that is, a month ago, the sheep and the half-fairy got up early in the morning, saying that it was the old fairy who gave him a dream and explained the reason for the drought in the alpaca village for many years, and there was actually a buffalo spirit living in the house of a family surnamed Hong, not leaving, you must know that the buffalo spirit is nothing more than water for food, and the water source of the alpaca village has been drunk by the buffalo spirit, that is, it fell from the sky, and it is not wrong, so the day is long, Alpaca village has also been in a series of droughts, and it doesn't rain.

The so-called marriage family, is also a kind of joking name only, Yang Ban Xian'er said, the buffalo essence is the surname Hong family went up the mountain to hunt when provoked home, lived and did not leave, of course, the surname Hong family did not know, until the family one after another people fell ill and died, and in the year after year of drought, this thought of let the sheep half fairy take a look, the sheep half fairy also happened to get the will of the old fairy, to the surname Hong family to take a look, but it is not a buffalo spirit tired in the kitchen of the surname Hong's family, Yang half Xian'er found out the root of the problem, and let the only Hong family left at that time, is also a descendant of the Hong family, the young man's name is Hong Gengqing, he lived outside for three days, and the sheep and half fairies used what Taoism, saying that they would send this buffalo spirit away, otherwise the alpaca village would have thought that it would rain in the future.

Three days later, Yang Banxian happily declared that the buffalo spirit had been sent away, and it should rain now,,, but it was a pity, after such a month, the alpaca village still did not see a drop of rain, and the sheep half Xian'er was said to have rarely gone out of the house after taking care of that matter, and stayed at home all day, and the villagers preached again, saying that Hong Gengqing's family and the goblins in the mountains had married their families, and the goblins wanted to marry their daughters to the young man Hong Gengqing, so far, they angered God, and they condemned the alpaca village again, and it no longer rained.

Hearing this, I can't help but feel ridiculous, it's too late for immortal cultivators to cherish the opportunity to cultivate, and they can't have anything to do with ordinary people at all, as for the buffalo spirit in front, I think it may be a bit like that, but some of the words in the back are obviously the villagers of alpaca village themselves who came up with it, alas, too, it is bitter to the depths, and any gossip may appear, no wonder they,

After listening to Ma Shunhong's words, I frowned, slowly stood up and said, "If there are really goblins here, it's not difficult to know, please take a look and find out." ”

All things in heaven and earth, are needed to maintain the aura of the sky, if there are goblins here, then it will inevitably be connected to the earth, as long as you ask the earth to see, whether there is a demon will be immediately clear,

After speaking, I pinched out the finger of the sword with one hand, and suddenly kicked three times on the ground, ordinary people naturally can't see any doorway, but when I open the eyes of the sky, it is different, a cloud of gray breath slowly emerges from the ground, and after rippling on the ground for a while, it slowly returns to the ground,

"Hmm." I was stunned, that breath was indeed mixed with demonic ,,,,

In this way, it is very likely that the sheep half-fairy sent the buffalo essence, but since he sent the buffalo essence, why is there still a demonic atmosphere here, this is too strange.

Well, since Yang Ban Xian'er is a bit of a Taoist, presumably from him should be able to get more accurate information, rather than guessing here, it is better to go directly to Yang Ban Xian'er to ask for an understanding, think about it, I immediately hugged Ma Shunhong and said: "Brother Ma, I may be able to help you check out the alpaca village, if I can help, I will try my best to help you resolve this difficulty, but at the moment I am not very clear about the specific situation of the whole matter, can you introduce Yang Ban Xian'er, I want to ask in person to understand clearly." ”

Ma Shunhong's eyes lit up at this moment, and he first looked me up and down in disbelief, and then said happily: "It's really unseemly, Brother Chuqi, if you can really help our alpaca village get rain, the villagers of our entire alpaca village will be grateful, okay, I'll take you to find the sheep and half fairy now, go." ”

I nodded goodbye to the old man and Ma Shunhong's wife, and then followed Ma Shunhong all the way out of the courtyard gate and rushed to the house of the sheep and half fairy in the east of the village.
