Zhou Yuefeng chased to Xiao Rong's house, and saw her fly in before, but when Zhou Yuefeng broke in, he only saw Widow Jia sitting on the bed embroidering, and the spirit rune didn't know where it was thrown. But what Zhou Yuefeng could be sure of was that Xiao Rong was burned by this spirit rune.

Widow Jia saw Zhou Yuefeng come in and raised her eyes, Zhou Yuefeng said, "Sister-in-law, has Xiaorong ever come back?" Where is she now? Widow Jia changed her face during the day and whispered, "I haven't come back." Then he continued to bow his head and embroider, and Zhou Yuefeng saw the spirit rune that was still on the ground next to Widow Jia's feet at this time.

He leaned over and picked it up, and said to Widow Jia, "Da Sou, why did this spirit talisman fall to the ground?" Zhou Yuefeng already knew what was going on, Widow Jia originally wanted Zhou Yuefeng to help her daughter find a good future, but when it really happened, that is, when Xiao Rong was really injured, after all, Widow Jia was also a mother, naturally mother's love trumped everything, and she wanted to protect Xiao Rong.

Looking at the spirit rune, Widow Jia immediately picked it up and stuffed it in her pocket and said, "I accidentally dropped it." Zhou Yuefeng said: "Sister-in-law, I can understand your feelings, Xiao Rong was hurt by this spirit rune, you must hate this spirit rune, and you don't even want to cooperate with me anymore, but I didn't come here to catch Xiao Rong or kill Xiao Rong, I want to save her, let her get out of the sea of suffering as soon as possible, and enter reincarnation." ”

Hearing Zhou Yuefeng's words, tears fell from Widow Jia's face, and they dripped down her cheeks on the embroidered cloth she was holding in her hand. She seemed to be struggling with her thoughts, Zhou Yuefeng didn't bother her at this time, just stood there without putting a little pressure on her, and let her decide what to do for herself.

After about an hour, Zhou Yuefeng's legs were a little numb, at this time Widow Jia finally reacted, although the embroidery needle in her hand has not stopped, but her thoughts have not been idle, after a very complicated ideological struggle, she finally decided, that is, to continue to endure the pain of love, for the sake of her Xiaorong, let her get on the right path as soon as possible, otherwise if she continues like this, not only will there be no way out, but she may even be wiped out.

She slowly raised her head and said, "Young Master Feng, I have decided, I will help you rescue Xiao Rong, but you must promise not to hurt her, this child is the same as my life, and he has not had a good life since he was a child." Zhou Yuefeng was relieved when he heard her say this, and replied: "Naturally, don't worry about this big search, I have also heard about Xiaorong's life experience, and I will definitely protect her." ”

Then he asked: "But sister-in-law, you have to tell me now, did Xiaorong come back just now?" Where is she now? Widow Jia said, "Yes, she did come back just now, but she accidentally touched this spirit talisman you gave me, and her hand was burned, and then she sensed that you were nearby, so she turned into a puff of smoke and disappeared, and I really don't know where she went." ”

Thinking about it, Widow Jia didn't tell a lie, she really didn't know, and after Xiao Rong was hurt this time, she might have been shocked, and she shouldn't come back in the short term. Zhou Yuefeng said: "Sister-in-law, as I said before, although she is your daughter, this charm must be tightly carried on her body, especially after this incident, she is likely to have resentment in her heart, you must be careful." Widow Jia nodded, and put the spirit talisman back on herself.

Zhou Yuefeng said: "Then sister-in-law, you rest early, I'll go back first, remember that the spirit rune must be brought with you." After saying that, he retreated, there was no light at all along the way, and I don't know if the villagers were afraid and nested in the bed early, or if there was some other reason, anyway, the whole village at night walked up like walking in an empty village, and it was boring. Walking on such a village road, he always felt a cool breeze on his back, Zhou Yuefeng tugged on his clothes, and then walked back to the village quickly.

As soon as he pushed the door open, he lay on the bed, and the quiet darkness immediately surrounded him, the most suitable thing to think about in such a night, plus the new place and bed, Zhou Yuefeng didn't sleep well this night, he kept thinking about what happened these days, and spliced the fragments together, and finally had some eyebrows.

The next morning, as soon as the rooster crowed a few times, the village chief pushed the door in with breakfast, Zhou Yuefeng just stared for a while, and after being woken up by the sound of opening the door, he rubbed his sleepy eyes, and then saw the village chief who was setting the meal, Zhou Yuefeng stretched his waist and sat up from the bed.

The village chief immediately asked embarrassedly: "Oh, look, I'm still thinking about quietly, this is still making you quarrel, I originally wanted to ask you to go to the house for dinner, but my mother-in-law was neat, and it was done, I thought about it and tossed for a while before it was cold, so I brought some over, and we will drink some here." As he spoke, he took out the wine.

Zhou Yuefeng looked at it and said: "Uncle, I don't usually drink, and we still have important things to do today, I thought about it all night last night, and I have a little eyebrows, I will discuss it with you after we eat in a while, and there are still some things to ask, let's take care of the affairs of the village first, and there is no hurry to drink when celebrating." When the village chief heard this, he took the wine and said, "That's fine, then we'll do things first." ”

The two of them quickly had breakfast and simply cleaned up, Zhou Yuefeng said: "Xiao Rong has become a demon now, she is now cultivating a kind of **, which will suck the essence and spirit of girls, Fangfang, Jia Yuan and Jia Jing The three children were respectively sucked by Xiao Rong, and if you want to complete the whole process of this **, what you need is to catch their spirits." ”

Speaking of this, he looked at the village chief and found that he didn't think of how to capture their spirits, and then said: "And there is a saying of 'first seven' in our northeast, in fact, it is called 'out of harm' in Shaanxi, which means the same thing, Xiao Rong will definitely come back to suck their spirits this day, because this is her last chance." ”

The village chief thought for a while and said: "There is still such a saying in our village, after a person dies, he is 'in trouble', and it is determined to prevent outsiders from encountering 'disaster'. Paper white flags are planted at the door of the house, and white paper lanterns are hung at night so that the villagers can avoid them. In the direction of the 'disaster', a red cloth or a flour basket is usually hung in the yard to resist the aggravity. ”

Zhou Yuefeng said: "Yes, that's it, because this is the moment when the spirit really enters the netherworld, so this time is also the most dangerous time, people meet people die, beasts meet beasts die, and the branches and leaves on the trees are scorched. And Xiao Rong will also come to several houses at this time to capture the spirits of a few girls. ”

The village chief couldn't help but feel a cold sweat on his back when he heard this, he wiped his sweat and said, "This thing is not a joke, is it possible that Young Master Feng wants to do it in this 'disaster' ceremony?" If you're not careful, you're going to make a mess. With that, he cleaned up the box containing the food.

Seeing that Zhou Yuefeng didn't react, he continued: "According to common sense, after an hour of 'disaster', people can't go home directly. You should first throw a water load into the courtyard on the cliff or outside the wall, make a 'vomit' sound, or knock on the bronze utensils, and scare away all the 'aftermath'. Otherwise, the 'disaster' will not be complete, resulting in 'imprisonment', and the family will not be at peace. What part of this whole process does Young Master Feng plan to do? ”

Zhou Yuefeng thought for a while and said: "I guess she must have stayed near the courtyard of that house before the ceremony began, I calculated it, Xiao Rong calculated it well, the 'trouble' time of these three girls is in the middle of the night, our purpose is to catch Xiao Rong, for this girl who is in trouble, let her continue, so we try our best to catch her before the ceremony." ”

The village chief also knew that this matter was not so easy, so he said: "This matter is extremely dangerous, besides, this child has become a demon, it is even more difficult to catch her, no matter what kind of request you make, our whole village will definitely cooperate with you." ”

Zhou Yuefeng said: "Tonight is the fifth night after the first accident, and the first girl Jia Fangfang, who was killed, is about to arrive, and the night after tomorrow, we will go to their house to prepare." If it can be successful, the first seven of the next two children and girls can be arranged by your village, if the first time can't be successful, we still have a second chance and a third chance, if the three times are used up, then Xiaorong's skills will increase greatly, and then I am afraid it will be even more difficult to deal with. ”

After speaking, I told the village chief what things are needed to make it, there are red and green cloths, three feet each, a big bucket containing five grains, in ancient times, one bucket of rice and two buckets of rice were used as measuring tools, the appearance is a barrel made of wood, but it is a little narrower below, a little wider above, the main difference is that its four walls are straight, not like a plastic bucket is a curved arc.

The village chief took the notebook and wrote them down one by one, for the sake of insurance, and asked the village chief to prepare a big red rooster for more than three years, a black dog with no trace of miscellaneous hair all over the body, a guillotine, this thing is rarely seen now, and the grass was fed to the livestock with this thing to cut the grass into a small section, which is convenient for the livestock to chew.

Legend has it that the emperor once gave Bao Gong three guillotines, namely the dragon head guillotine, the tiger head guillotine and the dog-headed guillotine, and chose different guillotines according to different official ranks, so as to give him enough law enforcement width, of course, this is also a legend, as for whether there is such a thing, I dare not say, but the appearance of this guillotine is also like that.

In addition to these, there are also drinks and pastries, fruits, incense burners and tribute incense are indispensable. The village chief wrote them down one by one, and then said to Zhou Yuefeng: "Let's go to Jia Fangfang's house first to see the terrain, I will order someone to find these things, and I will definitely satisfy you." After speaking, the two of them walked out of the village and walked directly towards Jia Fangfang's house.

Before arriving at Jia Fangfang's house, I saw a small coffin parked in the yard from a distance, according to the local etiquette and customs, this child who has not started a family cannot be buried, and the ashes cannot be buried, that is, they cannot enter the ancestral grave, they must be scattered with the wind, but the first seven still have to be done, and after doing it, the bones will be incinerated and the ashes can be raised. But although there were many children in the countryside at that time, they also had feelings after raising them so big.

It is said that Jia Fangfang's mother has cried and fainted several times, and the other brothers and sisters are also guarding in front of the spirit, wiping their tears, a depressing atmosphere is coming, the village chief pointed to the house and said: "That is Jia Fangfang's house, do you want to go in?" Take a look in the yard? Zhou Yuefeng said: "No need, I can almost estimate the directions where Xiao Rong will be, and then go in when I get the things to set up the array." ”
