After the Lantern Festival.

Fu Shiyi set off to Beiliang Mountain to pick Xuanyuan grass.

Beiliangshan is located in Tancheng County, two days away from the ancient cliff house.

Fu Shiyi hurried at full speed, and only arrived at the cedar forest before dark, he raised his eyes and looked into the distance, but he didn't find that there was a nearby village where he could stay.

"Brother Sixteen, it looks like we're going to sleep in the wild tonight. Before it gets dark, we'll have to set up camp. ”

Seeing that Fu Shiyi did not agree, he went to Yanyang Wood Forest to grind and soak Babo for a few days, Babo was very annoying, Fu Shiyi saw this, so he nodded and agreed.

"Eleven, this is the first time I've been sleeping outside, you say, will there be a red-clothed female ghost running out of this forest in the middle of the night......?

After the sixteenth brother became an adult, he guarded the Yanyang Wood Forest for fifteen years, and like Fu Shiyi, this was the first time to "travel far", so he was like a wild horse on the loose, chattering excitedly along the way.

Fu Shiyi was busy setting up camp, but suddenly there was a strange sound in his ears.

"Shh

Fu Shiyi made a silent gesture to Brother Sixteen.

The next moment, the strange noise began to become clear.

"Crunch"

"Crunch"

It was the sound of the wheels rolling, and it was getting closer and closer to the two of them.

There is no shop in front of the village here, and it stands to reason that no one passes by.

Fu Shiyi's heart was faintly hairy.

Wouldn't they really respond to Brother Sixteen's crow's mouth, they had encountered an evil spirit, right?!Fu Shiyi clasped the blood seal in his hand, and stared at the front covered by the fir wood.

Turbulence.

There was a ping-pong sound in front of him, like something rolling to the ground, and then there was a loud "bang", Fu Shiyi and Brother Sixteen glanced at each other:

It's like the sound of a rollover car.

Fu Shiyi and the others breathed a sigh of relief, and crossed the cedar forest together, but saw a wooden cart on the steep slope in front of them overturned to the ground, and an old man was crushed under the car.

"Oops, oops!"

The car was full of paper people, and although the weight was not heavy, the old man could not turn over.

Fu Shiyi drove the blood seal back, grabbed the sixteenth brother who wanted to go to help, and repeated in a low voice: "Sixteenth brother, remember, we are just medicine boys who went to Beiliang Mountain to pick herbs. ”

After the sixteenth brother nodded, Fu Shiyi stepped forward with him and rescued the old man from the flatbed.

"Oh, thank you so much, otherwise my daughter would not know how anxious she would be when she saw that I had not returned. ”

The old man was dressed in a coarse cotton shirt, his face was yellow and thin, and when he spoke, his eyes looked in the opposite direction of Fu Shiyi and the two, his eyes were dull and unfocused, and he turned out to be a blind man.

Why did a blind man appear in this barren mountain?

"Uncle, it's so late, why did you come to this place alone?"

The old man fumbled and picked up the paper people thrown on the ground one by one and returned them to the car, and said: "Hey, girl, it seems that you are not from Tancheng County, right? The old man is from Yinyang Village, and he lives in the first two miles, and everyone in the vicinity knows it." ”

There is even a village nearby.

Fu Shiyi was puzzled, and the sixteenth brother who was helping to pick up the paper and prick people immediately became excited when he heard this: "That's really great, uncle, our brother and sister are looking for a place to rest for the night, I don't know if it's inconvenient for outsiders to stay in your village?"

"This ......"

The old man hesitated a little and said: "In our Yin Yang Village, our ancestors have been making shrouds, paper money and other things for the dead for generations, if you are not taboo, little brother, Xiao Lao'er naturally has no opinion." ”

"Hey, what's so taboo about that, isn't it, sister?"

The sixteenth brother looked at Fu Shiyi pleadingly, staying in the wild might be attacked by fierce beasts, Fu Shiyi thought about it, and went with the old man.

"Uncle, you can just sit in the car, I have a lot of strength, I'll push the cart. ”

Brother Sixteen diligently placed the old man on the board car, and asked the old man many questions along the way, Fu Shiyi followed behind, and her attention couldn't help but fall on the pile of paper.

At first glance, this white-clothed and red-faced paper piercing man is dull and wooden, but after looking at it for a long time, he feels that the man and woman are like smiling at themselves.

Fu Shiyi's heart was furious, and he couldn't help but look away.

"Young man, turn left, and then go a hundred paces, and you will come to the entrance of our village, where there is a centuries-old locust tree, which you can see at a glance. ”

Big locust tree?!

Previously, the villagers of Xiahe Village, Beishan County, and Pingling Township, Nanshan County, were collectively hanged under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.

According to the analysis of Fu Shiyi's grandfather, the locust tree is a ghost in the wood, and the yin qi is extremely heavy. Therefore, those who like the things of the heavy yin and the dying choose to hang there.

As the flatbed truck drove into the village.

The last rays of the setting sun also disappeared into the sky.

Strangely, there was no candle light in the whole village, not even the sound of chickens, ducks and dogs barking, and it was eerily quiet.

Fu Shiyi took out a candle from his bag and lit it, but saw that there was a layer of mist lingering around him, and the appearance of the village could not be seen very clearly, so he couldn't help but say:

"Uncle, the people in your village are resting so early, and they have all rested before nightfall. ”

"Hey, it's not all poor, our ancestors lived by earning money from the dead, often eating the last meal without the next meal, and having no money to buy lamp oil and candles, so naturally we can only rest before dark. ”

The old man's home is at the end of the village.

Alone at the foot of the hill, there is a long slope in front of the house, which is overgrown with weeds, as if no one has passed by for a long time.

"Alright, young man, the cart is under the slope, you have done me a great favor today, and I will let my daughter make you a hot meal to warm your stomach. ”

The old man said, and his steps flew into the courtyard, not at all like a blind man.

Fu Shiyi beckoned Brother Sixteen to come over with his ear, and whispered: "Brother Sixteen, we will say that we have eaten in a while, and we don't need to work for the old man." ”

Brother Sixteen nodded.

He has a very bad mouth, so naturally he will not be rare in the mortal world.

There are two main rooms and a living room in the old uncle's house, and two side rooms on the left and right sides.

When Fu Shiyi and the two of them were sitting in the living room, they saw two tablets placed on the offering strip in front of the table of the Eight Immortals, with red cloth hanging on the tablet, and the incense pillar on the incense burner in front of them was burning vigorously.

Fu Shiyi and the two politely refused dinner, and the old man politely said a few words.

When the old man was about to take Fu Shiyi and the two to the guest room to settle in, Fu Shiyi heard a cry of "woo woo" in his ears.

Who's crying?

Fu Shiyi shook his head and was silently gesturing to Brother Sixteen, but the old man suddenly turned around at this moment and said quietly:

"Two benefactors, if you hear any strange noises tonight, please don't make a fuss, my daughter has been ........ Hey, it's hard to say, anyway, you don't have to worry about it, just go to sleep. ”

Could it be that the crying just now came from the old uncle's daughter.

Anyway, since they entered the house, they haven't seen his daughter show up.
