Chapter 4: Fox Laughter
The mother-in-law of the Li family was covered in blood and giggled...... Yin smiled, just when everyone was stunned, she grabbed the obscene clothes on her body with both hands, and pulled them to both sides, and heard a stabbing sound, and the obscene clothes were torn apart, revealing white flowers' breasts.
Seeing this scene, Lin Laoshi hurriedly turned his head, and then Lao Wang raised his head suddenly, his eyes were wide open, and there seemed to be a flash of light in his eyes, and he hurriedly rushed forward, and his right hand was like an eagle grabbing, grabbing a small piece of meat on the neck of the Li family's mother-in-law. Lao Wang grabbed the ball of flesh like a tumor, and the ball of meat was still wriggling like a living thing.
Lao Wang snorted coldly: "This is your toast and don't eat and drink." Raising the silver needle and poking it down at the meat ball, the Li family's mother-in-law screamed "Whoa~~~". The whole person shivered a few times violently, fell on the kang with a "poof", and did not wake up.
The speed with which it happened can be described as lightning fast.
Everyone was in a daze, stunned, Lao Wang turned his head dissatisfied and shouted to Lao Li: "What else is there to do, quickly cover your mother-in-law with a quilt." ”
Lao Li came back to his senses, hurriedly went to the kang and pulled a quilt over his mother-in-law, and his mother-in-law stopped making trouble and quieted down. His body curled up in the quilt.
Everyone was relieved to see that it was okay, and at this moment, a woman's scream suddenly came from outside the door, Lin Laoshi hurriedly looked outside, and saw a yellow fox suddenly burst out of the tall haystack of Lao Li's house, the yellow fox's eyes were rolling wildly, and his nose was black. The fur of the whole body is golden and yellow.
Lao Li's haystack is very large, like a hill. Every household in the village has such haystacks. One is used to light fires in winter, and the other is also used to feed livestock, so every autumn every year families will hoard a large amount of hay, dead leaves, and those that are not used are piled up there, and they don't care about it, and then pile them up the next year, and finally the hay below is already very old, and the bottom hay is gradually becoming more and more dark and moldy due to the deep age, and there are often some creatures that like dark and damp here. The yellow fox came out of the bottom of the haystack.
The average fox is the size of a stupid dog, but this one is much larger than the average fox, and its fur is shiny and golden in the sun. There was a strange glow in his red eyes. The screaming mother-in-law was holding the child to watch the excitement, but the fox burst out, her golden fur shaking her eyes in the sunlight. Taken aback.
The woman's voice was sharp and sharp. Everyone shuddered in their hearts, the yellow fox wanted to escape, but when he heard this exclamation, he was also startled, and looked at the woman stunned.
This will be the eldest son of the Li family who came out with a hoe and was going to kill the fox, he was also afraid that if the fox was not removed, he would come to harm his family in the future.
Lao Wang grabbed out in one step to block the eldest son of the old Li family, and shouted at the fox: "Don't go quickly!" ”
The fox was also alert, and immediately rushed out of the village, flashing a few times and disappearing, the matter was understood at this point, and the yellow fox never came to the village again, and did not harm the old Li family.
Lin honestly experienced this incident personally, and he has been deeply impressed so far, and when he heard Li say this, he also had a sudden break in his heart, thinking that the female fox was snow-white all over her body, without a trace of miscellaneous hair, and she felt even more afraid. The people of this world are divided into 369 and so on, the Mongols are the first class, the second class of the Semu people, and the third class of the Han people, and the Han people here refer to the Han, Khitan, Jurchen and other ethnic groups in the original Jin Dynasty and the Yunnan people who were conquered by the Mongols earlier, and the Goryeo people in the northeast are also Han people. The fourth class is the southern people, also called barbarians and new vassals, referring to the people south of the Huai River in the former Southern Song Dynasty who were finally conquered by the Great Yuan Dynasty.
People are like this, so is foxes, since ancient times foxes have yellow is light, red is second, white is expensive, that is to say, the yellow fox is the lower grade, the red is the middle grade, the white is the top grade, the pure white fox's cultivation achievements are far greater than the yellow fox, Lin Laoshi thought of provoking a white fox, he felt very uneasy, but the thing had been done, and it was too late to regret it, he also got into a stubborn temper, and muttered in a low voice: "It doesn't steal our chicken, what do I do to find it?" , Wang Decai's family doesn't steal so many chickens, but steals from our poor family, the reason is in my place, I'm not afraid. ”
Seeing that he was stubborn, Li smiled helplessly and said, "If it is really a fox who cultivates immortals, does that thing reason with you?" ”
Lin Laoshi said this very unconfidently, and after hearing what his mother-in-law said, he thought about it, and wanted to comfort the Li family a few words, but he was stupid, and he didn't know what to say, so he stomped his feet out in the end, but he made up his mind in his heart to protect the safety of his mother-in-law and children no matter what.
Out of the house, Lin was stunned for a while, he wanted to make a few sets of fox covers, but this will be a cold winter, and there is no material to do it, so he thought about it for a long time and set a trap in his yard, saying that the trap is actually digging a long ditch, inserting some sharpened wooden sticks below, spreading dry grass on top, and then covering with snow.
In fact, it's useless to do this, the fox is not a human, step by step towards your house, the fox jumps far away, one by one, I'm afraid that I have crossed this trap, but Lin Laoshi has no other way, at least to do something, this is nothing more than to find peace of mind, but he still feels uneasy, and began to sharpen his very blunt short axe again.
Li sat in the room and sighed, looking at the two little foxes that Lin Laoshi threw down on the ground, one was already dead, and the other whined...... screaming, poor Baba look, she had the heart to let go of the little fox who was still alive, but Lin Laoshi was dull grinding the axe outside, and she was afraid of hurting his heart, thinking that Lin Laoshi did this, nothing more than for himself and the child in his belly.
The two of them were silent, the day passed, Lin Laoshi didn't dare to go, he accompanied the Li family with an axe in his arms, but in the middle of the night, nothing happened, and the two slowly put their minds at ease, Lin Laoshi also pondered going to the town tomorrow, selling the two fox cubs, buying two chickens that lay eggs, and buying some white noodles for the mother-in-law to make up.
The night gradually deepened, the two of them couldn't stay up, and they fell asleep after a while, and slept until the second half of the night, Li Daze heard someone crying outside the door, this cry was sad and sad, endless, Li woke up suddenly, who was crying in the middle of the night? She hurriedly pushed Lin Laoshi, Lin Laoshi slept soundly, and was pushed by her mother-in-law, Bu Leng sat up, and asked a little demonically: "What's wrong?" ”
"Listen, someone is crying outside the door!"
Lin honestly pricked up his ears and listened, and touched his head: "Our house is leaking, could it be the movement of the wind?" ”
"No, listen again, the wind is not this movement."
After Li Shi finished speaking, Lin Laoshi listened carefully, and sure enough, although the cry outside was weak, it came into the house in a leisurely manner, and the sound was very small, like the sound of light rain in summer.
Lin Laoshi was also shocked, but he was the only man in the family, and he had the courage to yell at the door: "Who? If you don't sleep at night, what's the mourning? ”
When he shouted, the cry outside was louder, whining...... 's crying and complaining, Lin honestly couldn't sit still now, he was a little suspicious that the white fox came to find his bad luck, but this is obviously a human cry outside, can the fox still be able to transform into a human form? If he really had this ability, he wouldn't have stolen his two chickens to eat, and he cut off his tail.
Li was also suspicious and confused in his heart, but he still said to Lin honestly: "Honestly, you go and see, don't be the old man of someone's family who has passed away, the people in the village take good care of us, and when things happen, we can take a hand." ”
Li's literacy and hyphenation are more knowledgeable than Lin's, and he usually listens to his mother-in-law, and when he listens to Li's words, he ponders that this is also the case, so he puts on cotton clothes, puts on shoes, walks to the door in two steps, and squeaks the door...... pulled away.
The door opened, the moon outside was sparse, the big moon shone on the snow and was miserable white, reflecting a light all around, under the old locust tree in the yard, a white fox broke half of its tail, it was the one who was cut off by him during the day, and the other black fox, the whole body was black and shiny, with a circle of purple hair around his waist, almost half the size of the white fox around him, his eyes flashed like a flame-like demonic red, and he stood there, seeing Lin Laoshi go out and make waves at him like a human.
Lin Laoshi only felt that a cold air rushed from the soles of his feet to the top of his head, and instantly wiped out the hot air that had just come out of the bed, and he didn't know what to do with his mouth open, and a stream of hot air erupted from his mouth, forming a white column, which was indescribably strange in this scene.
At this time, Li Shi also got up and walked to the door with his clothes and stomach, and before he could go out, he said in a sigh: "Who put this at the door of our house?" ”
Lin Laoshi looked down, on the snow in front of the door, I don't know when there was a large blue and white porcelain bowl, and there were a few pieces of loose silver in the bowl, almost about seven or eight taels, seven or eight taels of silver in the first seven or eight taels of silver were enough for ordinary people to spend a year.
This is obviously the fox asking for a child, the black fox seems to know the rules of the world very well, and it is very decent, which means that the white fox stole your chicken, it is not right, and the broken tail is also a lesson, and the silver in the porcelain bowl at the door is to pay for your chickens.
Li hurriedly shouted to Lin Laoshi: "Quick, quickly return those two little foxes to them." ”
Lin Laoshi was also frightened, and when he heard his mother-in-law shouting, he hurriedly went back to the house and took out the two foxes, put them by the door, and muttered: "Dead one, not intentionally, the road slipped, I fell, and my hand was loose and I fell out......"
Before Lin Laoshi finished muttering, the white fox with a broken tail suddenly rushed over, and this time it was very fast, so frightened that Lin Laoshi fell to the ground, and saw that tears kept dripping from the white fox's black eyes, wooing...... With a low chirp, he picked up the vine with the two fox cubs tied to it, and turned and ran out of the yard.
The black fox didn't leave, but just looked at Lin Laoshi calmly, and then looked at Li, Lin Laoshi was frightened, and said repeatedly in his mouth: "I didn't mean it, I really didn't mean it......"
The black fox suddenly laughed, and the smile on the fox with sharp beak and monkey cheeks was indescribably dark and weird, and then he also turned around and ran out of the yard.
