I was a rural kid.

I was only seven or eight years old that year, and I often went out into the wild with a group of children from the village. One afternoon that summer, I was playing hide-and-seek with them in the crop fields, and I ran alone to the cemetery on the east side of the village in order not to be discovered.

Who knew that the friends couldn't find me, and they shouted at me and didn't say anything (in fact, I couldn't hear it), and the game was over.

My friends had already gone home, but I was still walking around the graveyard alone.

At this time, someone in the distance shouted: "Hit, hit, chase quickly." When I looked up, it turned out to be several hunters chasing a white prey in a cornfield.

The white creature was clearly wounded, limping, and running towards me in a panic, slow but small enough to get through places where a man could not get through, and helped it distance itself from the hunter.

At first, I thought it was a rabbit, but then it ran up to me and realized that it was a white fox. The white fox, which was exhausted, saw me for a moment, and was not afraid, and looked at me for a while, its eyes were full of pity and despair, and it actually ran into a hole in the dirt behind me. I was moved by compassion, walked over and wiped the blood dripping from the white fox's injury with my feet, and then turned around, sat down at the mouth of the hole, covered the hole tightly, and pretended to play with the small willow stick in my hand as if nothing happened.

After a while, the hunters came running out of breath, and one of them, wearing a straw hat, came up to me and asked, "Hey, kid, did you just see a wounded fox running over here?"

I said, "What fox?"

The man took off his hat and fanned it a few times, then added, "White, it's so big." ”

He gestured with his hand.

"I didn't see it, but I just heard the sound of rustling, and I don't know if it was or not. ”

I pointed to a nest of grass not far away.

There was a hunter from our village, named Li San, who knew me and said to me, "Jiansheng, what are you doing here alone? ”

I lied to someone for the first time, and my face flushed, but I still pretended to be calm, picked up the willow branch and whipped it on the low tree next to me, and made a "popping sound, and said", "I...... I'm playing hide and seek with the big bull and the second egg, don't talk loudly, let them hear and lose. ”

Someone next to him urged Li San: "Don't talk to the child, go and find the fox, the white fox is very cunning, don't let it escape." ”

Some people also said: "The fur of the white fox is old and expensive now"

"It was shot, it must not have run far, we searched carefully. Someone else said.

A few of them walked along the grass I was pointing at blindly, and they flicked the grass with their dirt shotguns. Hearing that they were far away, I got up and stood up, still not at ease, worried that the Orion would return, so I dragged a hug of dead branches and weeds to cover the entrance of the cave tightly, and then clapped my hands and left.

He said to the cave: "Fox, I can only help here, whether you can finally escape depends on your own creation." ”

I had a strange dream.

I dreamed of an old man with gray hair, sitting next to me. He said to me, "Jiansheng, you are such a good boy, I have come to thank you." I am a fox fairy who has practiced for thousands of years, but yesterday was my calamity, I can't exert my mana, I can only let people slaughter, I have your help, temporarily avoided a catastrophe, but unfortunately my body suffered a heavy injury, can not recover, I have to borrow your body, will rest for a few days, and when my body recovers, I will leave. Don't be afraid, at a young age, accumulate virtue and do good, and you will have great blessings in the future. ”

With that, the old man jumped and threw himself at my body.

I was startled and rolled on the bed.

"Oops!" - I cried out in pain as my head touched the edge of the bed, and I woke up from my dream.

A white shadow pounced on my body in front of me, it was like a faint wisp of green smoke, and like a pile of snow, instantly integrated into my body.

I rubbed my eyes, thinking that I was dazzled and not taking it seriously, and soon fell asleep in a daze.

At that time, I was still young, and I didn't think it was a dream. After a few days, one night, I felt a fire rushing left and right in my body, but even if it swam all over my body, it could not break through my body, on the contrary, every time it rushed, the flame became much smaller, and then the flame gradually disappeared. For this reason, I was forced to return to the water for a few days, and the doctor couldn't say a reason, anyway, I was confused and better.

At night, I had another strange dream.

It was the old man with gray hair who sat across from me and talked to me.

The old man was in good spirits, much better than last time, but he had a bitter face.

The old man said: "Jiansheng, you killed me, I said how can you easily avoid the last calamity, it turns out that the real calamity should be on you." Alas, this is also called a catastrophe. ”

The old man then said: "We in the fox realm cultivate immortals, there is a catastrophe every three thousand years, and those who can escape the three tribulations can become immortals." ”

After the fox fairy (note: because I know that he is a fox fairy, I don't call him an old man) finished speaking, he seemed to be intoxicated by the first two tribulations.

I asked puzzledly, "Shangxian, I didn't hurt you." ”

The fox fairy said: "It's not just a harm, I originally lived in your body and the like, I wanted to breathe for a few days, just to avoid calamity, and when my body recovered, I left on my own, who expected, your mental power is too deep, imprisoned me, I want to come out now, but it is no longer possible." Actually, I can't blame you for this, it's all to blame for my carelessness, I didn't notice your strong telekinesis at that time, and I pounced on you in a hurry. ”

I listened and shuddered. I thought to myself, then I am not controlled by him.

I said, "Immortal, what is telekinesis?"

The fox fairy said: "The so-called mental power is the power of your mind, it is the combination of the essence and the spirit, but it is above the essence and spirit, it can be the energy, it can be the internal force, and it can even be mana or control." You may not understand it now, but you will understand it later!"

I was still shivering.

The fox fairy said: "What are you afraid of? Now I am controlled by you, to put it bluntly, I am now a part of you, you may not understand now, when you are older, you will slowly know that you can control me as you like." ”

I nodded subconsciously as if I understood.

The fox fairy said: "I have tacitly checked the past life of your family, your parents are very responsible people, and for you, I have no clue, you are definitely not theirs...... I'll tell you about this later. ”

I said, "If you're so powerful, why are you afraid of those little hunters?"

The fox fairy said: "You don't know this, our calamity is divided into three kinds of heaven, earth and man, the catastrophe is seventy-seven and forty-nine days, every day you have to beware of thunder and lightning, many thunderbolts kill animals, ancient trees or something, it is a catastrophe." ”

I interjected, "If it doesn't rain on those days, you'll be fine, or you can hide in a cave." ”

The fox fairy shook his head lightly and said, "How can it be so easy, do you know that thunder strikes on a sunny day? It is commonly known as drought thunder, and have you heard that those thunders turn into fireballs, pass through walls and enter the house, or roll into caves? Those are all heavenly calamities." These mines do not penetrate the wall and enter the hole for no reason, there must be something in it, but ordinary people don't know it. ”

The words of the fox fairy reminded me of the seventh company of Xixin Farm not far from us, on a thunderstorm day, on the edge of the rice field, a thunder slashed a big snake, and the head of the snake alone was the size of a pig to be slaughtered.

The fox fairy continued: "The earth tribulation is ninety-nine eighty-one days, this earth tribulation is calm, the calmer it is, the more hidden incomparably dangerous, in these days the people or all kinds of animals can not eat or sleep, eat, it destroys all the cultivation, simply put, it is to fight back to the prototype, sleep, the people of the underworld will hook your soul away anytime and anywhere, those so-called old deaths, are unknowingly dead on the earth tribulation. ”

The fox fairy sighed and said, "The human tribulation is one hundred and eight days, and during this time, no matter where you hide, someone will always appear by your side from time to time, taking your life in various ways anytime, anywhere. The most terrible thing is that the mana has been lost these days, do you think that without mana, I am an old, weak, sick and disabled, can a fox who is thousands of years old still be able to open his legs?"

I think about it, too, but it's scary enough to think of a fox hiding on me.

I begged him, "Immortal, please, can you come out of my body?"

The fox fairy said innocently: "Jiansheng, do you think I don't want to come out? Now you are sealing me." I'm yours....... Prisoner, you must be kind to me in the future. ”

I asked, "Immortal, how can I help you lift the ban, you can teach me." ”

The fox fairy replied: "You are still young, and your mental power cannot be retracted freely, one day, when you have a great success, you may be able to help me release it, but at that time my physical body has decayed, and how I will settle down after I come out is also a problem." ”

"Actually, you are also an extraordinary person, if you are an ordinary person, you will never have such great mental power, let alone seal me. I also suffered by myself and attached myself to you, but it will benefit you and do no harm, ordinary people beg me to possess me, and I will not go. ”

I blurted out, "Then don't you know what I'm going to do in the future?"

The fox fairy said: "I don't have the leisure to ask you about the worldly things every day, only when I encounter special circumstances, I instinctively appear." ”

In the end, I can only passively accept this fact.

Later, everything I experienced proved that what the fox fairy said was true.

Here are a few of the trivial things I personally experienced.

One day, I was wandering around the farm. I saw those people in the village playing chess under the shade of the trees in front of the small hospital. I didn't know much about it, but I liked to join in the fun, so I squeezed in.

I saw the hand across from Dr. Wang hanging in the air. I was taking the car to eat Dr. Wang's chess.

But in my eyes, the man was holding a real car in his hand, black and pressed, with huge wheels, about to crush the head of Dr. Wang, who was playing chess.

I was taken aback, instinctively turned to the side, and blurted out: "Danger, don't move, the big car is coming." ”
