"Fox... Uncle Fox ruined it? I asked, surprised.

"Hmm." Master said.

"Could it be that he carved those pictures under the clay pot to guide the resurrection of the high, and released the thing imprisoned in the altar of the underground temple?" ”

"Impossible." Xiang Feng said, "The ancient river map is engraved in that clay basin, if he had known about that basin a long time ago, he would not have bothered to find it and would have to rely on our help to find it later, otherwise wouldn't it be redundant?" ”

"Yes, but," I frowned, "but why did he destroy it?" ”

Master shook his head and didn't answer, and Xiang Feng didn't say anything. Depending on the situation, only by finding the person who carved the picture under the basin and knowing what the third picture was engraved with was destroyed, can we know the reason why the old fox destroyed it. At the beginning, in that underground stone house, Master ordered Xiang Feng and Lao Hu to go out and wait for us. Moments after they went out, the foxes returned. The basin has been in the hands of the old fox, it seems that the old fox appeared at that time the pattern engraved under the basin, he took advantage of the wind and rain to confront those foxes, and secretly destroyed the third picture... Why did he do it...

The old fox is a mysterious person, his life experience is very peculiar, he was raised by a fox, introverted and unsociable, because Gao Laosan criticized his father Xu Xiangqian, and has always refused to recognize him as a younger brother, but secretly he continues to help and protect him, when Gao Laosan is held hostage with a knife, he is willing to kneel down and be humiliated. The inheritance left by his adoptive father was donated to the Fox Immortal Temple by him, and he lived a hungry and full life, almost isolated from the world. He hated the people of Gaojia Village to the core, but he did not take revenge on everyone for this, but tried his best to get rid of the river monsters and help them avoid flooding. Now that the person is dead, the body does not know where it has gone, and it cannot be detected by the Qimen Bureau...

Although we were busy all night, we didn't feel sleepy. The monster had been removed, but my heart felt an indescribable heaviness. Walking along the wide bluestone streets, from time to time, early townspeople passed by us, all of them looking in good spirits. On the side of the road, several old men were sitting around a small round table, crossing Erlang's legs, listening to small songs, and drinking morning tea leisurely. They won't know that the peaceful life in front of them was bought by a man named Lao Hu with his life...

A dead leaf fell from above, 'snapped' at my feet, and was blown by the wind and tumbled into the distance.

"Master, what's the arrangement for today?" I asked.

The master thought for a while and said, "Wait a minute, let's go and get a mound for Brother Fox first, then go back to the hotel to rest, and go back to Gaojia Village tomorrow." ”

"Hmm..."

I nodded at the same time as Xiang Feng, and suddenly, with the sound of a rapid run of 'tom tom', a man dressed as a townsman, carrying breakfast, jumped out of a narrow alley next to me, and almost hit me. The man was sweating profusely, and when he came to the street, he seemed to be unable to run, so he stopped, bent over his chest and gasped.

"What's wrong with the second child, was it picked up by a dog?" An old man asked.

"Out... Something happened..."

"What's wrong?" The old men asked in unison.

"Fox... Fox Daxian... Fox Daxian is in tears! ”

"What?!"

Not only the old men, but we were all stunned.

"Fox Daxian is crying! …”

"Let's go, let's take a look." Master whispered.

When I came to the fox fairy temple, I saw that the people in the temple were crowded with three layers inside and three layers outside, and the big incense burner in the middle was filled with thick or thin incense, and the rising smoke gathered in the sky above the temple, like a huge cyan canopy.

I didn't need to speak, the tall and tall Xiangfeng bento walked in front first, and everywhere I went, everyone gave way. It was very light, and we came to the temple house. I saw that the room was full of people kneeling, and they were bowing to the fox fairy statue with a reverent face. In the dimness, I saw two black tear-stained marks on Fox Daxian's face...

Everyone should still remember that the head of this fox fairy statue is made of the head of the old fox's dead 'fox mother', at this moment, it is in tears, no one can explain what is going on, these townspeople and tourists think that the fox fairy has appeared. Only we know that it should be tears for the old fox, but I don't know if it's because it's sad or touched, maybe it's both... It is said that during the three-year disaster, the Leshan Giant Buddha couldn't bear to see the starving corpses floating in the river, so he once closed his eyes and shed tears...

"Look, look at the hand of the fox fairy!"

A man kneeling at the front suddenly shouted. Only then did we notice that the index finger of Fox Daxian's right hand, which was originally bent, was actually faintly stretched out, vaguely pointing at the 'boy' next to it... Looking at the god-like faces of the boy and the old fox, my vision blurred unconsciously...

"What is it doing..."

"Could it be that it's pointing us out..."

Everyone whispered to each other, and then an old man suddenly said, "It means that we should worship this boy!" ”

Hearing the old man say this, everyone suddenly realized, and bowed to the boy with a brush... No one knows what the old fox did except us, but after his death, his 'fox mother' instructed the people of Bluestone Town to bow down to him, so that he could be worshiped forever and enjoy the incense forever...

The eyes of Master and Xiang Feng were also red, and after all these people on the ground got up, Master took out the incense and lit it for us. Bypassing the crowd, we bowed respectfully to the fox fairy statue and the boy three times, and inserted the incense into the incense burner on the offering table...

Coming out of the Fox Fairy Temple, we had a bite to eat at the morning market outside the temple and then went to Lao Hu's residence. The room was deserted, the furnishings were very simple, a broken table, a broken chair, and there was no bed, and the old fox didn't need a bed to sleep. In addition to the table and chairs, it is a small wooden box leaning against the wall, although it is very old, but it is very exquisite, from the shape of the shape, it feels like it was used by the rich man in the old days, and it should be left to him by the old fox's adoptive father.

"Leng'er, you find two pieces of Brother Fox's clothes in this box, and Ah Feng and I will go out to find a wooden board and make a tablet for Brother Fox..."

As Master expected, this small box was filled with clothes and bedding and other things, all of which were quite old, but the slurry was very clean, except for a faint smell of damp mold. Rummaging through a set of old clothes of the old fox, I clamped it in my arms, ready to tidy up the contents of the box, and then covered it, and touched the bottom of the box with my hand, and I suddenly touched a hard thing.

My heart moved, I took out the thing, put it in front of my eyes, and saw that it was a book made of cowhide cover. Judging from the style, it's similar to the book that Yuxin and I appeared in the cave behind the stone village. It seems that this book was given to Lao Hu by Xu Xiangqian, and what is recorded in it should be the technique of the five elements of yin and yang. Sure enough, when I opened it, I saw that there were various patterns painted inside, and there were traditional Chinese notes next to each pattern, which was nothing more than 'gold, wood, water, fire, earth' and various five-element terms and so on. I flipped through the pages, and when I turned to one of them, I couldn't help but be stunned. There are no patterns or words on this page, and the page is full of a kind of zigzag symbol, just like the symbol engraved on the wooden gossip that was dug up from the ancestral grave of Xiaoqing's family... There is no doubt that this is a spell, the kind of spell that raises evil spirits...

But how did it end up in this book? … I yelled 'ah' and slapped my hand on my leg, calling myself stupid. The wooden gossip was first seen by Xu Xiangqian in the stone chamber in the middle of the mountain, and it was obvious that he had transcribed the spell before handing it over to the company commander. Later, he passed this spell to his son Lao Hu along with the Yin and Yang Five Elements Technique he knew...

Since the old fox knows this kind of spell, then could it be that he will also raise evil spirits? … I suddenly thought that Yang Shujun said that the reason why Lao Hu imprisoned him was because his physique was different from ordinary people... Because of the militia that was raised as an evil in the past, all the members of the Yang family were cursed, and they would all become evil after death, and their physique was naturally different from ordinary people... The old fox showed this, and asked Yang Shujun for the reason, which shows that he must know how to raise evil spirits... At this time, I thought of the stone stake again, maybe it was the old fox nailed to the patio of the old mansion, reserved for the future to raise evil spirits...

"Master, Master, come on! …”

Master stared at the symbol on the notebook, and said no words for a long time, before he raised his head and asked me, where did I find this notebook?

I pointed to the box, "It's from this box." ”

"Is there anything else in there?" Xiang Feng asked.

"Something else..."

I muttered as I picked up the clothes and bedding in the box and shook it, then glanced at the bottom of the box and shook my head, no. I was about to put my clothes and bedding in when suddenly there was a white object in the gap at the bottom of my suitcase. Due to the age, the box is no longer strong, the nails are loose, and there is a wide gap between the bottom of the box and the wall of the box, and there is something stuck in the gap...

I took out a knife and carefully pulled this thing out, only to see that it was about ten centimeters long, like condensed jade, revealing a warm color, one end pointed, held in the hand, there was a cold feeling, like some kind of animal teeth, what animal would have such long teeth... Could it be...

I looked at Master and Xiang Feng, and saw that the two of them were staring straight at this thing in my hand, and they were very excited, it seems that they also thought of it...

I don't know if you still remember what Yang Shujun said at the beginning, his uncle Yang Niansheng was banished to Taihang Mountain, and the tooth that was handed over to Yang Shujun's mother when they parted. Yang Shujun said that he had met once in his hometown in the county seat, but he had not seen him since he moved. Later, in the nameless mountain village of Taihang Mountain, the hunchbacked old man 'Fifth Grandfather' in the village who presided over the burial of Grandpa Xiaoqing, told us that he had found that tooth when he was sorting out the sundries left by Yang Shujun's family. After the clan moved to Taihang Mountain, every time someone died, the tooth would change color... He built a temple and offered his teeth in the temple house, and whenever someone died, the body would be parked in the temple for seven days before it could be buried... Yang Deqiang, the sloppy man 'strong baby' in the village who was with the 'dummy', took the key to the temple house while the 'fifth grandfather' was sleeping, stole the tooth, and hid it under his own stove. I followed what Yang Deqiang said, ran to the bottom of the stove to touch, but I didn't touch anything...

Could it be that the missing tooth is the one in front of you? But how could it be in the old fox's box? …
