Seeing that it will be July 15 in a few days, that is, the seventieth birthday of the old shopkeeper Ji.

A killing three months ago made the old shopkeeper Ji 10 years old in an instant, and he began to crutches, and his body only improved a little after so long.

I don't know what's going on this day, after the morning exercise of the old shopkeeper Ji, he walked into the grove in the west courtyard, and unconsciously walked to the fox grave overgrown with weeds, looked at the big mound in front of him, and was distracted for a long time, and then turned around and went back to the tool room, found an iron shovel, and carried it to the west courtyard.

happened to be seen by the early morning worker, and everyone knew that the grass on the cemetery in the woods was cleaned by the old owner, and what snake spirit came back, and the fox spirit did not die was all scared by the villagers themselves.

As the saying goes, people are rare in their seventies, and the seventieth birthday of the shopkeeper Ji also wants to do a big job, and it is lively and lively, so it is better to go to bad luck and get rid of the gloomy atmosphere in my heart. The day before his birthday, the two sons and daughters-in-law who were doing business in the provincial capital also brought several grandchildren and daughters-in-law, and a little great-grandson came back to celebrate the old man's birthday.

The shopkeeper Ji asked people to set up a stage in the open space not far in front of the compound, and the eldest son invited the most famous troupe from the provincial capital to sing and celebrate his birthday.

"Playing children" is a local opera in northern Jinbei, and people of all ages like to listen to it. As soon as it was dark, the villagers put down the dishes and chopsticks, sat down in front of the stage with a bench, and went up to the tree that was not visible from behind. The lanterns are hung up, and as soon as the gongs and drums are beaten, the excitement comes up.

The repertoire sung is "A Thousand Miles to Jingniang", which is a traditional opera, the most popular, and it can be said that it is an empty alley. Even for the Chinese New Year, the village is not so lively, and it is impossible to invite these famous actors, and the villagers are fascinated.

In the middle of the moon, the big drama ended, and the adults and children in the village walked to their respective homes in a hurry, and suddenly, a child on a tree shouted: "Ji's house is on fire!"

This voice startled everyone, and they all looked back at the Ji family's compound, but they couldn't see the slightest fire, and there was not even smoke, so they scolded this kid for fooling people to play.

But the child on the tree turned pale with fright, and pointed to the courtyard of the Ji family and shouted: "Can't you see?

Everyone looked at his frightened face as if they were joking, and looked carefully in the direction of his finger, oh my God, isn't it! I saw a large green flame rising on the ground on the ground of the east building not far away, so green that it was crystal clear! It was almost invisible! This flame was burning all the way up the pillar, and the transparent green color reflected the cloud dragon pattern on the pillar, as if the cloud dragon had risen from the underworld!

Because the people do not know the cause of the ghost fire, they only know that this kind of flame mostly appears in places where there are dead people, and it flickers and flickers, so this mysterious flame is called "ghost fire", which is considered to be a bad omen and a ghost.

The large group of villagers who had not yet dispersed were stunned by the miserable green flames in front of them, who had ever seen such a scene! The children were already frightened and crying, and they took the hands of adults and ran home. People pushed and shoved, and a large group of people huddled together in a chaotic state.

But the strange thing is that the East Building, which was so noisy outside and was caught in the "ghost fire", did not make the slightest movement, and even a few big dogs in the courtyard did not bark! The entire Ji family compound seemed to be asleep!

In the noisy crowd, some people soon woke up, it was urgent to put out the fire, and hurriedly ran home to get buckets and basins, some people "ping-pong" knocked on the basin, trying to wake up the sleeping people in the Ji family's compound, but they didn't seem to hear it at all, and some people rushed to the nearby big pond to draw water, and then rushed to the Ji family's compound with water.

However, the green flame of this evil act cannot be extinguished! The small flame that had just been extinguished by the water immediately burst into flames again! While fighting the fire, the people here shouted to the people in the building, hoping that they would be able to escape! At least they could answer the question.

The villagers who were anxiously busy fighting the fire found a long pole from a nearby family, tied a hook and prepared to open a hole in the tow hook from the window on the second floor, which had not burned too badly, so that the people on the second floor could escape!

But the window sash that can be hooked down, the green fire on it does not go out even if it falls into the water!

The people in the countryside, the folk customs are simple, seeing the fire engulfing the west building, but no one gave up, and is still struggling to carry water from the lotus pond and extinguish the fire.

However, the green fire, which didn't seem to want to give people much hope, suddenly collapsed!

The people who put out the fire also fell silent all of a sudden, alas! The building had collapsed, and although there were still green flames running out of it, it had lost the meaning of saving it again, and the people inside must have died......

Poor family of more than 20 people, buried in the sea of fire in a daze, it seems to be a matter of an instant.

Just when people sighed, the original miserable green flames suddenly turned into a normal color, this change made people surprised, as if they had experienced a nightmare, but looking at the ruins in front of them, the nightmare did indeed happen in front of them.

Someone poured the remaining water on the red flames, and the fire was extinguished!

Suddenly, someone pointed to the woods in the west courtyard and didn't dare to make a sound.

Everyone looked over, and there were a few people standing on the top of a big tree, no, it should be a few humanoid things! These humanoid things were only half the height of ordinary people, and they were standing on the treetops, and their hair was white.

The one in the center, with a slight bow on his back and a short wooden staff in his "hand", swayed gently with the treetops. Under the moonlight, a body of snow-white hair, shining with a cold halo, and a long white beard under the chin moved with the wind, but the face was a fox's triangular face!!

The old vixen squinted slightly, looked at the stunned people below, and then looked at the collapsed and still burning ruins of the East Building, and there seemed to be a faint trace of unbearability in his eyes, and then turned around and disappeared with a few other white-haired old foxes in a flash!

After dawn, the villagers all came to the Ji family's compound again, and in the east building, there was only a pile of black charcoal still smoking, and everything in the building had been turned to ashes! The village chief arranged for people to pick up the ruins and try to find out the people buried in it and put them into the ground.

Suddenly, a cry!

Everyone hurriedly ran to the place where the crying sound was made, and as they stood there, everyone was stunned again, for God seemed to have given too much shock to the night, the stage, the green fire, the ruins, and the old fox who had become a spirit!

In the middle of the dug up ruins, there is an intact crib! In it lies a little baby who is still asleep, with his little finger stuffed in his mouth and sucking, white and tender skin, without even a trace of baked redness, looking at that happy expression, it seems that he is still having a sweet dream!

People who have experienced last night's nightmare really don't understand how this child survived in that raging flame? Why, the moment the white-haired old fox left, there was a trace of unbearability in his eyes? Why, the fire left such a baby unengulfed? I am afraid that all this will always be a mystery......

Master Li looked at me with a look of concern, fanning his fan.

I said, "It's over?"

Master Li nodded.

I looked at my watch, and the 10 minutes I said were good, but half an hour had passed, and I was so anxious that I stomped my foot: "Master Li, this is not the time to tell a story, a lot of equipment has not been prepared yet, I have to go!"

Master Li said slowly: "Some of you are the descendants of the story, the demon I said. ”

"Who?!" I was shocked.

"Bai Jingjing. ”

"Descendant of the vixen?"

Master Li shook his head: "The descendants of Liu Xian." ”

I'll go, and sure enough, my mind flashed back in an instant, in the cave under the Fushouling subway, a giant snake attacked the scene of a half-fairy.

That half-fairy? is a descendant of the Ji family, that's right, his surname is Ji Mingguang!!

This is a thousand-year-old vendetta?!!

"Lao He, do you have a fucking sense of time, and do you still want to buy equipment?"

I bowed my hand to Master Li: "I still have a lot of questions in my heart, I'll ask for advice when I go back!" After speaking, he ran to the teahouse.

Lao Kan said that he was drinking tea in the teahouse, and it was enough for us to have equipment.

At the urging of the half-fairy, I started the big cut and went straight to an outdoor shop on Deshengmennei Street that specializes in mountaineering and camping.

As soon as I got on the Fuxingmen Bridge, Bai Jingjing's voice came from the back seat, "Brother He, my colleagues in the company miss you and say that they want to get together." ”
