Xu Lushui glanced at Sister Zhang, a strange smile hung on the corner of her mouth, and she said, "Traveling? They are arresting you tourists, even if someone checks it out, just report a donkey friend who fell off a cliff or something to prevaricate the past, to be honest, few people dare to care about the affairs of Xizhai. ”

The folk customs here are really strong, and they are more scary than our Yangjiazhuang.

However, I know that the more dangerous a place is, the closer it is to the truth, don't I?

After chatting with the proprietress Xu Lushui for a while, Shen Yue and I were going to go over there to see what was going on on the pretext of going to the bamboo forest to cut bamboo insects.

Xu Lushui prepared two bamboo knives for us, saying that we must cut them here in Dongzhai, so as not to go to the people in Xizhai who are alarmed over there and cause unnecessary trouble.

Shen Yue and I naturally agreed, of course, not to cut bamboo insects. I couldn't eat that thing when I saw it, and Shen Yue didn't have a good impression of that bug.

After Shen Yue and I arrived at the bamboo forest, we found that the bamboo forest was not ordinarily large.

I walked along the bamboo forest to the opposite side, and after walking for almost an hour, I saw a village outside the bamboo forest in the distance. It was a gloomy feeling over there, but there was smoke rising from the house, and there should be someone.

Other than this, I didn't find anything special.

Shen Yue also looked very seriously, so I asked him, and he said: "It's nothing, I just think that the yin qi in this whole village seems to be a little heavy, although this is Miao Village, but the water of feng shui is everywhere." You see, the south of the mountain and the north are yang, and the side near the bamboo forest should be considered yang, but there are almost no houses here, but the side near the old plane tree is the shade, and the wooden buildings are gathered there. ”

When Shen Yue said, I looked at it carefully, it was really like this, in addition to the shade of the huge plane tree, there was also the shade of the mountains over there, and the whole was a yin house feng shui, why did the people of Xizhai live there?

Even if the villagers don't understand feng shui, it is better to build a house with the sun in the sun, and I have never seen such a situation.

"Something isn't right!" I said.

"Xiaofan, do you feel as if someone has been staring at us?" Shen Yue said this suddenly, and as soon as he reminded me, I really felt it, and it was obvious to be stared at.

I looked around, and there was a person standing a dozen meters away on my left. It was a dark-skinned old man, dressed as a Miao man, with a Miao knife hanging from his waist, and he was staring at us.

Seeing that we had found him, he didn't say a word, but held the Miao knife and chased after the two of us. Shen Yue said in a low voice: "Fuck, this person is fucking insane, he wants to cut when he sees someone?" ”

The speed of the Miao man was not slow, and a dagger in the other hand lit up, only to hear a "whoosh" sound, the dagger was extremely fast, passing between me and Shen Yue, fortunately he dodged in time and was not injured. The dagger passed, and directly pierced a bamboo, which was the thickness of an arm, and the force was not small.

"Uncle Cao, Lao Tzu didn't offend him, and he came up and killed him?" Shen Yue seemed to be a little angry, and he seemed to be about to rush towards that Miao man.

I grabbed him and whispered, "Run, don't make trouble!" ”

Shen Yue turned around and scolded, and quickly ran out of the bamboo forest with me, and the Miao people stopped when they were about to leave the bamboo forest. He stood in the bamboo forest, staring at me and Shen Yue with a resentful expression, staring at me for a long time, and he was still standing there several times when he turned around. However, when Shen Yue and I reached the bluestone steps in front, the person was gone.

Back at the hotel, Xu Lushui saw that the two of us were empty-handed, so he asked what about the bamboo insects, Shen Yue almost said what happened just now, I hurriedly said: "I'm not very good at it, I cut a few trees and there is no hair in it!" ”

Xu Lushui just smiled and didn't say anything.

Ah Kun and Sister Zhang are still in the hotel, and it seems that things in this place are really a bit troublesome. I went to the house with Shen Yue, thinking about the old man in the bamboo forest, but I thought that his skin was dark, and I didn't see his face too clearly, because the bamboo forest was dense, and it was already gloomy inside.

Shen Yue asked me, "Don't you think that old man in the bamboo forest is a bit like the man on the ferry?" ”

I thought about it carefully, and the faces of the two of them were not too clear, but the walking posture was very similar to the Miao knife in the hand, and it was really the old man.

I nodded, and Shen Yue said: "That old man is very suspicious, and the proprietress in this store, Xiaofan, be careful, she didn't drop you last night, right?" ”

I got goosebumps as soon as I remembered last night, and I said, "Your uncle, what can you have, am I Yang Fan such a casual person?" ”

Shen Yue looked at me with disgust and said, "You are not a human being when you get up casually!" ”

I was speechless, and at this time, Sister Zhang was gesturing at the two of us on the stairs, I asked her what was wrong, and she didn't say anything, just motioned for us to go upstairs and talk.

Following her upstairs and into the house, Shen Yue asked, "What are you doing, so mysterious?" ”

Sister Zhang took out her mobile phone and turned to the page of the calendar, she pointed to it and said, "You two take a good look, what day is tonight?" ”

I was stunned for a moment, and looked down with Shen Yue, it was a very ordinary day, nothing special. Shen Yue looked at Sister Zhang and asked, "It won't be your birthday, sister, in this kind of place, I don't have any good gifts, otherwise when Xiaofan and I go to get you some bamboo worms back, aren't you very good?" ”

Sister Zhang glanced at Shen Yue, and she said: "I know that you two pig brains, you take a good look, today is the fifteenth, the night of the full moon!" ”

I took my phone and took a closer look, it was really the fifteenth day of the lunar calendar, how could I forget this stubble.

On the night of the fifteenth full moon of the first lunar month, it is time for the girl of the Falling Flower Cave to sacrifice again, and tonight there will definitely be a big girl with yellow flowers who will be sent to marry some mountain god and ghost.

On the one hand, it was because of curiosity, and on the other hand, I always felt that there was something strange about the girl in Xizhai Luohua Cave, and there must be a reason why my father came over at this time.

I decided to go to Xizhai at night to have a look, and I really found the truth of some things.

Originally, I was going to go with me, Shen Yue and Ah Kun, but Ah Kun disappeared in the afternoon. Asked about the dew, she didn't know where Ah Kun went, Ah Kun must have also known about the night of the fifteenth full moon of the first lunar month, maybe he has gone to Xizhai now.

After all, listening to Xu Lushui, if a girl from Xizhai is chosen, she must marry the cave god in the middle of the night, so even if you go during the day, you can't find any clues.

Shen Yue and I went over at night, thinking that Sister Zhang should hide in the hotel, don't go anywhere, don't let her be arrested and be a girl in the Falling Flower Cave, then I won't be able to explain to the second grandfather when I go back.

Who knows, when Shen Yue and I went to the vicinity of the bamboo forest, we found that someone was following, and we pretended not to find it, and wanted to catch her, and sure enough, Sister Zhang followed.

I asked her if she wasn't afraid of being caught and being a girl in the Falling Flower Cave, and Sister Zhang said that she was not afraid, even if she was really caught, wouldn't she return it to us and Shen Yue?

The two of us were speechless for a moment, since she came with her, there was nothing to do, so I took her with us. I didn't take the road I walked during the day, I was afraid that I would run into the old man with the Miao knife again, and I would be exposed halfway.

However, this time it went well, and I walked to the bamboo forest over there, and I didn't see the old man during the day. Instead, I saw a fire under the huge plane tree in the distance, and the trunk of the plane tree was red from the fire. The phoenix was reborn from the fire, and I don't know why I thought of this.

When I went out of the bamboo forest, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, and the moonlight was slanted like snow.

We just walked towards the plane tree, there were many wooden buildings over there, but we didn't see anyone, and there was no light in each room. However, when I got to one of the places, I heard someone crying. It was a woman's voice, crying very sadly, and she didn't seem to dare to speak loudly.

All three of us stopped, and I motioned to go over and have a look, and then went to the door and knocked softly. It took a while to open the door, and as soon as the door was opened, an old woman dressed as Miao suddenly knelt at the door, crying, and saying something that we couldn't understand at all, which should be the dialect of Xiangxi Miao Village.

Shen Yue hurriedly went over and said, "Hey, aunt, do you have any misunderstanding, we are not bad people, why do you kowtow to us?" ”

The old woman was stunned, looked up, her mouth trembled, she said a word in Miao, realized that it was wrong, and then said: "Who are you, I thought you were the ones who came to take my daughter away......"

I seemed to understand that this old woman's daughter was chosen as the girl of the Falling Flower Cave, and she knelt down and kowtowed and cried as soon as she went out just now, pleading for her daughter.

The old woman looked behind us, but there was no one, so she said: "In the middle of the night, you still dare to wander around Xizhai, you are really bold, hurry up and follow me to hide in the house, especially that girl, who was arrested!" ”

"Okay, thank you, auntie!" This time it was Sister Zhang who spoke, she was very positive, and pushed me and Shen Yue to take shelter in the house. I don't know what she means, but she winked at me, didn't she have some idea?
