"Girl, please come in."

"Master, please." The mistress of the house, wearing a headscarf, reluctantly smiled and invited people in.

Turning around, she went into the kitchen to get busy.

The little girl who had just washed the vegetables stayed in the house to greet the guests, and Ning Xi conjured up a trinkle-like gadget for her.

"Thank you, Sister Fairy."

"You're welcome, what's your name?"

"Li Tongtong." The little girl repeated, "My name is Li Tongtong." ”

Ning Xi wanted to say a few more words to the little girl, so Mrs. Li came out with the food.

"There is only coarse tea and light rice at home, and I hope the girl and the master will not dislike it." Mrs. Li was quick with her hands and feet, and quickly brought out the meal.

The little girl immediately put down the little windmill and went up to help, Ning Xi took a look, the table was full of vegetarian dishes, I don't know if it was for the convenience of the monks, or if the family was too poor to eat meat.

"Tongtong, eat quickly." Mrs. Li called the little girl back to her senses.

The little girl pursed her mouth, "Mother, when will Daddy come back?" ”

"Soon, eat."

"Mother, are you lying to me, Tongtong hasn't seen her father for a long time." The little girl burst into tears

Ning Xi noticed that something was wrong with the atmosphere here, and Mrs. Li also choked up, could it be that something happened to the male owner of this house?

The meal was painful, and Mrs. Li specially cleaned up the room for the guests to live.

Ning Xi walked over to help, and after making the bed, she took out some broken silver from her purse and gave it to Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li refused to accept it at first, but then she thought about it and accepted it again.

Ning Xi asked tentatively, "Madam, your husband he"

Mrs. Li couldn't hold back her crying when she heard this, "He said that he went to the mountains to hunt, but he didn't go home for more than half a month. ”

"Have you looked for it?" Ning Xi asked suspiciously, generally if someone in the village has an accident on the mountain, the villagers will go up the mountain together to find someone.

Mrs. Li shook her head, "I can't find it, there are many men in our village who have disappeared, and it's too evil for anyone to dare to go out to find them." ”

"Rich people have moved out of here, I didn't expect anything to happen to him, woo."

Ning Xi comforted him a few words, and then went to find Xuan Mo.

"Squeak-" The door shut.

Ning Xi turned around and saw Xuan Mo meditating, so she repeated what Madame Li had said.

"Master, do you think this is strange?"

Xuan Mo raised his eyes to look at her, looked away in an instant, and said, "You can go to inquire tomorrow, it's not too early, please go back to the room to rest." ”

Ning Xi nodded, "Well, okay." ”

Her room is next door, naturally it is impossible to rest when she goes back, the Yuanyang given by Xuanmo last time has not been completely refined, she has to work harder, so that she can be a powerful goblin who will not be slaughtered.

After the little peach demon went out, Xuanmo immediately settled down.

It didn't take long for the figure of the little peach demon, her voice, and the Buddhist beads scattered all over the place in his mind.

In this process, he did not dare to be presumptuous at all, only avoided like a snake and scorpion, and silently recited the Heart Sutra.

However, after the chaos, the little peach demon's jade hand landed on his Adam's apple and down on his strong abdomen.

Xuan Mo was suddenly startled, and the hand that turned the rosary immediately clenched into a fist.

Her breath fell to his wrist, her thin lips roaming over the edge of the beads, and when she raised her eyes, she met his.

Xuan Mo immediately closed his eyes.

But the kiss of the little peach demon fell between his lips.

Xuan Mo stiffened, as if he had been choked by his lifeline, and even every breath was firmly occupied by the little peach demon.

He suddenly came back to his senses, struggled to recite the scriptures, and forcibly dispelled the illusion.

But the demons came out of this crack.

"Your mind is no longer stable, how can you become a Buddha?"

"Give up, a little goblin will hook you so much that you can't settle down, and no matter how much you struggle, it's futile to follow, it's better to fall into the demon world with me and be a free man in that world."

Xuan Mo turned the prayer beads, his green tendons burst out, and he recited the Buddhist scriptures over and over again.

Eventually, he opened his eyes suddenly, and the room was pitch black.

Everything is an illusion, and there is no little peach demon in the room at all.

……

In the early morning of the next day, after Ning Xi left the Li family, he went to the village with Xuan Mo to inquire about the news.

She noticed a very strange phenomenon, most of the people in this village were old people, women and children, and there were very few young and strong men.

Ning Xi walked up to an old man who was collecting the soles of his shoes, "Old woman, I have traveled here with the master, and I want to ask where are all the men in your village?" ”

The old woman looked up at her and sighed, "Where else can I go?" The dead died, and the fleeing fled. ”

Ning Xi sat down and asked again, "I heard that Li Tongtong's father at the head of the village went up the mountain to hunt and hasn't come back yet."

"It must have been hooked by a female ghost, and he died a long time ago, and he won't come back if he is alive."

Ning Xi was surprised, "Female ghost hooking souls? What's going on, didn't they go up to the mountains to hunt and go missing? ”

The old woman lowered her head and continued to accept the soles of her shoes, and chattered: "There is an ancestral hall on the side of the road into the mountain, and everyone used to ask for children, but since a year ago, the men in the village have disappeared one after another, and soon the things they carry will appear next to the ancestral hall, and since then everyone has called it the female ghost shrine." ”

"Those missing men have been hooked by female ghosts, where are they still alive."

After Ning Xi inquired about the news, he stood up and glanced at Xuan Mo.

The two of them walked towards the mountain in unison, entering the deep mountain, the clouds and mist were misty, and it was even daytime, but it gave people a dim and dark feeling.

I don't know how long I walked, a gust of yin wind hit, Ning Xi saw a stone tablet on the side of the overgrown road, the words written on the tablet were no longer clear, only to see a red paste, as if stained with blood.

Ning Xi paused with Xuan Mo's footsteps, Xuan Mo stepped forward to check, frowning slightly, "It's human blood." ”

The blood slowly flowed down, the fog was thick, Ning Xi took another step forward and found that the scene was turned upside down.

Where was the barren mountain, she clearly entered a dilapidated and terrifying village.

Ning Xi looked around and saw that Xuan Mo was next to her, and her heart couldn't help but settle.

"Master, what's going on?"

"I just met a ghost hitting the wall." Xuan Mo took a step closer to her, "Follow, don't get separated." ”

Ning Xi subconsciously gently tugged at the sleeve of his holy robe, "Master, I'd better follow you." ”

Xuan Mo turned the Buddha beads, and found that the surrounding ghosts were full of danger everywhere, so he slightly bowed her head and let her pull the corners of her clothes.

The two of them walked towards the village, which was silent, and there was not a single figure to be seen.

In an instant, red lanterns were hung in front of every house, and there was an ancestral hall in the center of the village, with a red light veil hanging down, a gorgeous one.

Ning Xi got closer, and suddenly heard the woman's laughter one after another, the laughter came from all directions, and it was weird.
