The old woman ignored my strange eyes, but smiled and said, "Dashan, who are you bringing here?"

When I heard this, I couldn't help but be stunned, this witch could actually speak Chinese, but because of her age, her voice was very soft.

"Mother-in-law, this is my eldest brother, who lives in my house for a while. He said he wanted to come and see you, and I brought it to you. ”

I hurriedly bowed slightly and said, "Mother-in-law, I lived in the village for a few days, and I couldn't visit because I was ill, please don't blame me!"

The witch shook her head and smiled: "What's not to blame for this, this village is not mine, it's everyone's." Now that you're here, come in and sit down. My old woman's house, but no guests have come for a long time. With that, she opened the courtyard door, and Dashan and I walked in.

The old woman walked in front, and Dashan and I followed. After a while, we were in the house.

It was dark in the room at the moment, the windows were stared at, no sunlight was shining at all, and the only thing that was shining was an oil lamp. Strange to say, other villages have electricity, but this one is the only one. The most primitive way of life has been preserved here, and everyone rarely goes out to get around.

In the shrine maiden's house, I saw a steaming teapot with three teacups on the side of the teapot.

As soon as I saw this, I couldn't help but secretly say in my heart: "Could it be that she knows that I will come with Dashan today?"

"Sit down, young man, I just made the tea, you can taste it. ”

When I heard this, I immediately said politely, "Thank you, mother-in-law!" and I sat down on the wooden chair with the mountain.

The shrine maiden sat down across from us, then picked up the kettle and poured a cup of tea for each of us.

That's when I noticed something interesting. It stands to reason that an old lady of seventy or eighty years old should have very thin hands and not smooth surfaces, but it is really surprising that one of the hands of this witch is as delicate as a girl's palm.

The shrine maiden pushed the teacup to us, and then poured another one herself. Naturally, I picked up the teacup unceremoniously, mainly because the tea was really fragrant.

I sniffed it under my nose, and I couldn't be wrong with it. With a gentle blow, I drank it all in one gulp.

I'm a person who drinks tea and drinks the same thing, and I like to dry it in one sip, and maybe the northerners like that.

The shrine maiden saw that I had drunk all the tea, and immediately filled another cup. "Thank you, mother-in-law, for causing you trouble!"

The shrine maiden smiled kindly and said, "Where is the matter, you can come over to taste tea, and you love to drink tea, that's enough." When my old man was alive, he loved to drink this Biluochun, but unfortunately, now that others are gone, he can't drink it. ”

When I heard this, I hurriedly comforted: "Mother-in-law, I believe that your father-in-law will be very grateful to you." With that, I took another sip of tea.

Dashan, this kid didn't have any feelings for tea, and he felt irritable just after sitting for a while.

"Dashan, why don't you go back first, I'll chat with my mother-in-law here for a while, I know the way back, and when the conversation is over, I'll go back by myself." ”

When Dashan heard this, he immediately said goodbye to the two of us and ran out. I can guess that he wants to hunt with a new dagger, and the boys have similar ideas.

After the mountain is gone, I have no scruples. After putting down the teacup, I immediately smiled and said, "Mother-in-law, why are you persistent? Is the world really so tempting you?"

When the witch heard this, she immediately raised her eyes to look at me, and then said puzzledly, "What are you talking about, why can't I understand it?"

I know she'll understand, but I'd like to play it for a while.

"Mother-in-law, you are a witch, so you naturally know how to change your life against the sky. But this kind of hard support is really doing you more harm than good, can you tell me what you are doing this?"

When the witch heard this, she immediately smiled, and then said, "Young man, don't you think you should introduce yourself before that?"

The shrine maiden was right, I should introduce myself. "I'm a descendant of the ghost hunting door, I don't know the ghost hunting door, has my mother-in-law ever heard of it?"

"I've heard, such a well-known sect, how can I not hear of it?Oh, by the way, I still had a relationship with the Qingmeng Daoist in your sect in the early years. I wonder how he's doing now?"

I was stunned when I heard this, but I didn't expect her to know my master, it seems that the master's reputation is really not small.

"Qingmeng Taoist is the family teacher, he is all good, thank you mother-in-law for remembering. Mother-in-law, since you have an old relationship with my master, you can now tell me why you want to imprison your soul, right?"

The shrine maiden filled me with another glass, and then said with a smile: "Without a descendant to inherit, I can only prolong my life." I had no choice but to do so. ”

When I heard this, I laughed in my heart: "What a high-sounding excuse, could it be that this witch is still designated by God? It's all bullshit!"

Of course, I can't say this, "Mother-in-law, there is something unknown in the younger generation, I don't know whether to ask or not?"

"Excuse me, aren't you here to figure something out?"

It's amazing, you can guess anything. "Mother-in-law, what do you shrine maidens do?

As soon as these words came out, I saw that the shrine maiden's eyes changed, and the original kindness disappeared in an instant, replaced by disgust.

"What do we witches do, we can't just tell outsiders. Your master should know this, but young man, I advise you, this is the inheritance of our village, and you had better not make trouble. ”

"Mother-in-law, look at what you said. I'm a lodger, and I'll get out of here when I'm healed. However, I would like to ask, what do you think of the female ghost who appeared in the village, and what is the meaning of the sacrificial words on the chest of the village man?"

When the shrine maiden heard this, she immediately became furious, she slapped her hand on the table, and then pointed at me and said, "You are too presumptuous. Your master has to respect me for three points, and your junior dares to question the inheritance of our ancestors. ”

The witch thought that this would scare me, but I want to eat soft and not hard, and I am even harder if you come hard.

"Mother-in-law, what I can tell you is that if I see that female ghost again, I will definitely tear her to pieces, and that is that the child in the mountain is kind to me, and if anyone wants to harm him, he must ask me first. I don't care about any gods and evil spirits, as long as it is not good for the mountain, I will fight to the death!"

As soon as these words came out, the shrine maiden suddenly became angry. On other people's turf, I couldn't do anything, so I simply stood up, and then said: "The younger generation still has something to do, so I will retire first! Thank you mother-in-law for your tea and hospitality, and say goodbye!" With that, I slowly walked out of the house and walked directly outside.

At this moment, the shrine maiden suddenly chased after her, and then shouted, "Young man, there are some things that you can't stop, even I can't stop. Let it be, that's fine. All we can do is be kind to the living. Do you understand?"

I turned to look at her, and then smiled slightly: "If it is really the destiny of heaven, I will not stop it, but if the evil spirit harms people, I will definitely go to the troubled waters!

Back at Dashan's house, Ping'er is cooking. And Dashan didn't know where to run.

"Ping'er, thank you for your hard work! When I get better, I will definitely prepare a hearty lunch for you!"

When Ping'er heard this, she smiled and said, "Big brother, if you are willing to stay here for a little longer, it will be better than anything else." ”

I was stunned when I heard this, and immediately asked, "Ping'er, how is your little girl talking mysteriously, let's say, why? What else do you know?"

Ping'er just lowered her head and stir-fried the vegetables, no longer speaking. I knew she must have something unspeakable, and since it was inconvenient to say, then I couldn't ask again.

It didn't take long for Ping'er to prepare the meal. Looking at the fragrant food, my mouth immediately watered. But the mountain hasn't come back yet, and this kid is probably crazy.

No way, I decided to wait a little longer for him. But Ping'er and I waited for more than an hour, and Dashan still didn't come home. On weekdays, Dashan goes home for dinner. It doesn't take more than half an hour in the morning and evening, but today it was more than an hour.

This made Ping'er very anxious, and I was also very worried. Eventually, I decided to go and find him. But just as I was about to go out, a villager suddenly ran in.

He said a few words, but unfortunately I didn't understand a single one, but I could tell from his expression that something urgent must have happened.

I don't understand, Ping'er is a native here, and she can definitely understand it. I saw that her face also became very ugly, "Big brother, this uncle said that my brother is unconscious now." Mother-in-law is treating him. Come with me!"

When I heard this, I immediately exclaimed, "How could this be? Why did he suddenly faint?"

Ping'er shook her head and said, "I don't know, anyway, hurry up and see him." With that, Ping'er rushed out directly.

She could rush, but I couldn't keep my legs and feet on the rope, so I had to follow behind me with a cane. Not long after, Ping'er and I both arrived at the shrine maiden's house. The shrine maiden's house was surrounded by people, some of them watching the excitement, and some of them were genuinely worried about the safety of the mountain.

As soon as Ping'er approached, she immediately rushed in. The shrine maiden was praying for the mountain at the moment, and as she circled around him, she muttered something she didn't understand.

When I approached, I did not rush forward, for the people of this place believed in shrine maidens, and if I was disrespectful, I would surely be wrathed. However, when I stood outside the courtyard, I could still see the discomfort of the mountain.

Outside his body, there was a cloud of black qi, and the black qi looked like it was transformed by a yin matter. But to my great puzzlement, why was the little sword I gave him missing?

At this moment, the shrine maiden suddenly picked up a bowl of water, and then sprinkled it drop by drop on the mountain's body. This water is really powerful, and in just a few moments, the black qi on the mountain was dissolved by the water droplets, and finally disappeared.

I watched the black gas disappear and breathed a sigh of relief. Shrine maidens do have their own methods, and I'm just an outsider here after all.

But where did the little sword I gave to the mountain go, and how did the mountain get attacked by the Yin Thing?

At that moment, I saw the shrine maiden smile strangely at me, what did this smile mean?
