Dayou's surname is Zhang, his full name is Zhang Dayou, in addition to the three words of his name crookedly, he knows less than a basket of big characters. His family's ancestral home is Wen'an County, Hebei Province, and his ancestors were once a large family of scholars, and he also served as the right deputy of Qin Tianjian in the former Qing Dynasty.

In the generation of Grandpa Otomo, he once served as the Qintian Prison Lingtailang. Later, because he was implicated in a case of theft of the Ouchi treasure house, he was dismissed and sent to prison. The family spent a lot of money to dredge it, and barely bought a human life. Since then, the family has been in the middle of the road, and he has to return to his hometown in Wen'an County, making a living from a few acres of thin fields, and the ability to astrology and fortune has not been passed on.

Dayou's father's name is Zhang Antai, and unlike Dayou, Zhang Antai studied for two years when he was a child, so he knows some words.

Zhang Antai lost his father at an early age, and there were two older brothers above, and his mother pulled up the three brothers alone, and later in the year of the Boxer Rebellion, both brothers joined the Divine Soldiers and Boxers, but when the Gengzi Kingdom changed, both brothers died under the guns of the Eight-Nation Alliance.

Zhang Antai is a good car, is one of the best handlebar in the village, often drive the cart during the slack, pull the vegetables to the county to sell, one can earn a few big coins, and the other can also stop by to see the eldest son who is a soldier in the county.

He has two sons, the eldest is called Daguang, and the second is Dayou. Omitsu is 8 years older than Otomo, and at the age of 15, he was a big soldier in the new military camp in the county seat. The so-called barracks in the old society were not as formal as they are now, they were basically a muddy pond, and within a few years, the boss was infected with a bad habit, eating, drinking, prostituting, gambling, and smoking, which became a piece of Zhang Antai's heart disease!

Otomo was 9 years old that year, and after the autumn harvest, the sun was still scorching hot. Zhang Antai found a cool fake cloudy day and drove the car to the county seat to see his eldest son Daguang.

Zhang Antai arrived at the barracks but pounced. It turned out that as soon as the military salary arrived, Daguang went to the county seat to visit the kiln. Although Zhang Antai is a Zhuang family, his ancestors have also read the book of sages, which makes him angry, and he wanted to go directly to the brothel to find out this rebel, but who would have thought that something would go wrong on the road.

Zhang Antai drove the cart through the dirt road in the county, the first day of the rain, there were many puddles on the dirt road, the wheels rolled over, and the muddy water was splashing on a passer-by next to him. This is still a master who can't be provoked, and he is Chen Hu, the gangster who catches the streets in the county. Normally, everyone has to walk around when they see him, but this time he hit the muzzle of the gun, so he had to go.

Chen Hu came up with a big mouth, Zhang Antai was an honest dealer, and he didn't dare to squeak after being scraped, and in the end, even a few large pieces in his pocket were taken away by Chen Hu, and before leaving, he was hit by a kicking can. He held his breath and took the nest fire, and his son was no longer looking for him, so he drove the car out of the county seat directly.

On the way back to the village, Zhang Antai passed by a forest. This forest is very remote from the main road, and there is only a potholed path on the side of the forest, which is not often passed by by car on weekdays.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew, and the wind carried a burst of animal noise. Suddenly, he heard a roar, like that of some animal, and it was high-pitched and piercing.

Zhang Antai was not very bold, hearing this sound in the wilderness, his heart suddenly pounded, he hurriedly rushed forward, hoping to leave this forest as soon as possible. Who knew that at this time, suddenly a red light wrapped in a yellow shadow in front of his eyes fell directly in front of his car from mid-air.

Zhang Antai was startled, and hurriedly grabbed the livestock, and the mule pulling the cart neighed, raised his front hooves high, and raised his body. The board car behind was hit by this Yang, and the vegetables pulled on the car, including Zhang Antai, all fell from the car.

Zhang Antai fell on his back, and the owe was blistering. But the moment he fell out of the car, he saw an amazing scene.

I saw that in front of my big car, a huge blue-eyed red fox was biting and wrestling with a weasel the size of a raccoon cat.

The red fox had a fiery red coat and turquoise eyes, and was almost the size of a mule. That weasel pales in size by comparison. Even so, weasels are the size of ordinary cats and dogs.

Don't look at the disparity in size, but this weasel moves flexibly, has sharp fingers and claws, jumps and avoids, and has a way to advance and retreat, but it forces the big fox to retreat one after another.

Zhang Antai fell to the ground and couldn't get up for a long time, but the fox and the weasel couldn't hold each other and fought desperately. His eyes caught a glimpse of this strange scene, and he was so frightened that he was speechless and froze on the spot.

Suddenly, the blue-eyed firefox actually spoke! While fighting with the weasel, it shouted to Zhang Antai:

"It's dangerous here, don't leave quickly!"

When Zhang Antai heard the fox speak, he was excited, thinking that he was pretending to be a fox fairy and a yellow fairy fighting each other, and he didn't care about the radish and cabbage scattered all over the ground, so he quickly got up and went to pull the livestock, and turned the head of the car to run for his life!

But no matter how Zhang Antai pulled the livestock, the animal stood stiff and motionless. He had no choice but to jump into the cart, wave his whip, and hit the mule with a "snap", and the mule was frightened and hissed, but instead of turning around, he rushed straight forward.

The mule was crazy, running towards the fighting fox weasel, Zhang Antai was afraid and panicked, and didn't want to turn around this animal, but subconsciously raised the whip, only to hear the sound of "afraid", the crisp whip sounded, and the mule ran forward even more wildly.

At this moment, the huge blue-eyed fire fox was drenched in blood, and it had been scratched and torn by the weasel, and it was bloodied with several cuts, and it was about to be defeated. The weasel pounced, opened its mouth full of fangs, and bit down on the fox's neck.

At this critical moment, I saw Zhang Antai rushing over with the livestock, and the mule also lost his mind in the wild run, and kicked the weasel with his foot, and the weasel screamed and was kicked far away. Zhang Antai's car also rushed over at this time!

The cart was speeding away, only to feel a bang, and the huge blue-eyed fire fox just now fell on the cart. Zhang Antai subconsciously wanted to look back at the car, but his shoulder was pressed by a hand.

I heard a breathless voice behind me say:

"Let's go! …… Don't stop! ”

Zhang Antai heard that the voice was exactly the same as the voice of the blue-eyed fire fox just now, and thought that the fox fairy jumped into his car. He was flustered and didn't dare to turn back, so he continued to drive the car forward and get out of the forest.

Suddenly, Zhang Antai only felt the sound of the wind in his ears, followed by two sounds of "ding" and "ding". Then the mule screamed, and the four hooves ran faster. The cart jolted on the road and almost fell apart.

Zhang Antai looked at the gold and saw that on the buttocks of the mule, there was a crossbow arrow nailed to a long time, which penetrated deep into the texture and blood flowed. The mule was in pain, and then he ran wildly, and went straight out of more than ten miles, and then gradually slowed down.

As soon as the cart stopped, the mule collapsed to the ground tiredly, bent on all fours, and bowed to the ground. But the mule was still on its body, and it crawled on the ground, and the cart turned down as if it were forward.

Zhang Antai didn't pay attention, leaned forward, and fell from the car again, but this time instead of hitting the ground with his buttocks, he fell and ate shit, and his face was bald on the ground.

When he got up and looked at the cart, there was still no trace of the fox fairy, the blue-eyed fire fox had long been missing, as if it had never appeared in the race.

Zhang Antai dusted off the dirt on his body, stretched out his hand and patted his shoulder, but he saw that there was a red bloody palm print printed on the clothes on his right shoulder, which was exactly the position where the fox fairy pressed on his shoulder just now. It's just that this blood mark is not a fox's paw print, but a bloody handprint on a person's hand.

Zhang Antai was even more panicked now, obviously he saw a big fox who could only spit out words, how could he press a personal handprint on his shoulder. He suddenly remembered the legend of the fox cultivating immortals told by the old gentleman in the village, saying that after the fox cultivates, it can change into a human appearance.

He looked at the bloody palm print on his shoulder, and couldn't help but exclaim, could it be that he had met a fox fairy who had cultivated into a human form? The five immortal families of fox yellow, white willow and gray, in addition to the fox fairy, the weasel is also one of the immortals, and he may have happened to be pretending to be two immortals fighting.

At this time, the sun was dazzling, Zhang Antai only felt that the golden light on the cart flashed, and he stepped forward to check, only to see that the place where the fox fairy had done just now on the cart was a small copper piece in addition to a red bloodstain. A red rope is worn at one end of the copper sheet, as if it can be worn around the neck.

When I picked it up, this copper sheet was only the size of a palm, less than half an inch thick, one side was polished to shine, and the other side was uneven and covered with patina, which turned out to be a small copper mirror.

Zhang Antai thought to himself, this must be the treasure left by the fox fairy just now, he looked around, and there was no trace of the fox fairy in Shicai, so he hurriedly put the small bronze mirror into his arms.

After resting for a while, the mule finally regained its strength, but it still had the crossbow bolt stuck in its butt. Livestock are the most precious to the croppers, but Zhang Antai did not have any medicine to treat the wounds, so he did not dare to pull out the arrows, so he had to drive the car slowly and watch the mule limp back to the village.

After returning home, Zhang Antai told his wife what he saw today. His wife is a bit similar to Han Daring's personality, don't look at it as a rural woman, but she never believes in these ghosts and gods. I thought that Zhang Antai was sick and talking nonsense, until I saw him take out a small bronze mirror with a little blood stained on it, and then I would believe him.

At night, Zhang Antai took out the small bronze mirror and looked at it again, but how he looked at it and felt that this thing seemed to have been seen somewhere. He thought for a long time and finally remembered a relic that his father had left him before he died.

It was a booklet, very old, but it was not made of paper, it was woven from fine linen and some very hard silk, and there were some unknown things in it, with a little metallic luster, although the pages were heavy, but each page was thin and tough, thinner than rice paper. It is full of hand-recorded texts, with some hand-drawn drawings in between.

The text in this booklet is all in small letters. The second half of the book Zhang Antai is barely recognizable, but the first half of the book, in addition to knowing that some are seal characters, there are some unrecognizable hieroglyphs, the strangest is the beginning of the book, some of them are like ghost drawings, and I don't know if they are patterns or words.

Zhang Antai had already read this booklet, and with the words that could be read in the second half, he knew that it was passed down from generation to generation by his ancestors, and he wrote some family envoys from the Tang and Song dynasties to the middle of the Qing Dynasty. Their old Zhang family, although it was originally a scholarly family, but when it came to Zhang Antai's father, that is, Grandpa Dayou's generation, he was accustomed to the life of a farmer after many years of farming, and he had no interest in reading at all.

Zhang Antai had a headache when he saw the book, although he was also literate, he was really not interested in this booklet about family history, and he put it at the bottom of the box after reading it once.

Starting from the place where Zhang Antai can understand in this booklet, almost every generation is looking for a thing, until when Zhang Antai's grandfather was Lingtailang, he and his younger brother, that is, Zhang Antai's second grandfather, looked for this thing together.

The appearance of this thing is drawn on one of the pages of the booklet, and Zhang Antai once glanced at it, but he didn't take it seriously. For croppers, there is nothing more important than farming and eating, marrying a wife and having children to pass on the lineage, so since Zhang Antai's father, he has never mentioned looking for this thing.

When Zhang Antai saw this small bronze mirror today, he suddenly remembered the picture on the booklet, so he quickly rummaged through the cabinet and found the booklet. I opened the booklet and found the picture, and when I looked at the small bronze mirror, it was almost identical.

Unexpectedly, his ancestors had been looking for something for dozens of generations, and he let himself find it unintentionally. But I don't know what this thing is for.

The booklet only said to look for this thing, but it didn't say what this thing was and what it could be used for, but Zhang Antai was not stupid, he knew that his ancestors had been looking for this thing, and he had been looking for so many generations, which showed that this thing must be a treasure.

And this thing is still left by the fox fairy, maybe it can be worth a lot of money. He originally planned to take it to the county town and find someone who knows how to show it. Zhang Antai looked honest, but he also had some heart in his heart. He knows that he is a farmer, and he doesn't understand the rules of the antique shop, so maybe he will let the family be blinded.

So he used the red rope worn on the small bronze mirror, hung the copper mirror around his neck, and put it close to his body. Who knows, just because of this small bronze mirror, it caused him a disaster, not only did the family get bad thieves, but also caused him to bump into a hanged ghost in the wild......
