I didn't intend to become a fairy

Chapter 49
It is said that there was a flood in the Liujiang River ten years ago, and the stone bridge in the river was broken from the middle. In fact, it was not caused by the flood. Someone passed by that day and saw a long black shadow under the water.

It was also the "dragon" arch that broke the bridge.

It's a pity that he didn't succeed, so he didn't become a dragon. Later, he lived in the middle of the river for a long time, causing trouble and killing many people in the past few years.

It is said that a family in Luojiawan outside the city died two years ago, but the family was poor and could not afford a coffin or a cemetery.In the end, the people in the village were terrified, so they pooled their money to buy the land and buried it hastily.

As a result, there was a thunderstorm that night, and the corpse crawled out of the soil, with traces extending from the grave to the entrance of the village.

Fortunately, it crawled slowly, and it was dawn as soon as it reached the entrance of the village.

It is also said that the mass graves outside the city are often haunted by ghosts...

Of course the old man's story is not all true.

Some are made up, made up by others, made up by oneself.Some are heard, heard when young, or even heard when young, are remembered now, and passed on to the next generation.

And some have actually seen it with their own eyes.

These stories are not necessarily very witty, and many of them are even very short, telling one thing in just one or two sentences, but they are close to the side, and many of them are outside the city, in the city or even on the side streets.Other adults sometimes join in, and you enrich its sense of reality and details one by one, either saying that you have seen it or heard it, or explaining these ghosts in a serious manner according to your own imagination or hearing. The reasons for the appearance, of course, are also mysterious words and principles.

Many very real ghost legends come from this way.

Passed down from generation to generation, what is false becomes true.

At least these kids are convinced.

I saw that their eyes were wide open in fright, they were both scared and excited, and they were reluctant to leave.

Some are very strong-tempered, afraid of losing face, either find some gossip, or move around, using poor acting skills to pretend that they are not afraid or care about it.Or ask your companion if you are afraid, but if the other party has a little hesitation, you will be comforted in your heart, and you will laugh at him immediately, using this method to dilute your fear in your heart, so as to welcome this addictive stimulation.

However, the reserves in the old man's chest are also limited, and he often caters to the preferences of these children, and he is almost exhausted.

However, the children were entangled badly. He said that his mouth was dry, so he went to pour water for him. He said that he was tired, and someone would come to beat his back immediately. The woman standing aside:

"Stop pestering me, go pester this hero."

The children glanced at the woman, but they dared not go forward.

Which teenager doesn't admire the world?The chivalrous man of the rivers and lakes had attracted their attention as soon as he arrived, and they secretly glanced at him countless times.But after hearing too many stories about knights killing people in the rivers and lakes, in addition to yearning, there is also a bit of fear hidden in my heart, how dare I talk to this strange hero casually?

"Don't be afraid. After listening to this hero for so long, he must also be a person who loves to listen to stories. Traveling in the rivers and lakes, people must have some wonderful experiences. Maybe they have encountered monsters and ghosts in person. Come and say a few words Good thing, maybe he will tell you guys."

Hearing that the woman turned her head, she actually looked at the group of children.

Finally a bold one looked at her with those pure and timid eyes:
"Hero? Have you ever encountered monsters and ghosts?"

"Meet it, quite a few."

The woman said, her voice was calm, but she looked at the child very softly, and she couldn't help but smile: "I even killed monsters and ghosts myself..."

"what?"

Everyone was surprised.

He was surprised at the fact that the masked knight was a woman, and at what she said.

Children's eyes shine.

"really?"

"I'll tell you one."

"it is good."

Children are naturally close to women, and human beings have the instinct to take care of young children. The two parties are no longer silent, and they are much closer immediately.Once the identity of the chivalrous man is no longer alienated, only yearning remains.

Just listen to the slightly rough voice of the woman:
"That was last year, oh, it's New Years now, and that was the year before last.

"Once I came from Yidu, oh, Yidu is the seat of Yizhou, and Yizhou is next to here. On my way back to Shimen from Yidu, oh, Shimen is the sect that taught me martial arts.

"I took a shortcut on the way back to the teacher's gate, and I took the wrong way halfway, which was delayed a lot of time, and I finished the dry food I brought, and I was so hungry.

"It was autumn at that time, and there were wild fruits in the mountains, and some birds could be brought to roast, but the wild fruits were sour, and the roasted birds were terrible.

"I happened to see people living in the distance, and when I went to look, it was a Zhuangzi, and the richest family in the village was doing some errands.

"Hey! I thought about it! Don't you want to have a meal?
"I don't eat in vain. I just said that I am the distant niece of the old man. I went to the mountains to learn martial arts since I was a child. If I catch a gift, I will kowtow to him if I am amazing. Isn't that enough? So many people are eating there, who will pay for it?" Will you come to me and ask me clearly?
"I'm going to eat it!"

Seeing a group of children showing concentrated and nervous expressions, her tone became a little more smiley.

"Eating went well.

"The rice is also delicious, big fish and big meat.

"It's been a long time since I had such a good meal.

"People who practice martial arts have a big appetite, and they are very hungry. I am very happy to eat. Tsk tsk, you have never eaten my banquet in Yizhou. It is better to have a rich family's banquet. It is delicious."

Just a few words, without describing anything else, just relying on her tone, successfully mobilized the children's appetite.

Some people began to swallow their saliva.

Some people asked what kind of dishes they had, and the woman answered them one by one.

After saying a few other words, she turned back again, and continued, "I'm full and everyone is gone. I don't want to leave, so I just found a place to sleep. I slept until midnight, and I felt someone pushing me. I saw that he was an old man. I saw that the clothes he was wearing were of good material, and he was probably the owner of this family, and he was also old, so I wasn’t very wary. Later, when I thought about it, someone could take advantage of my deep sleep. I woke up when I felt close to me and pushed me. I should have drawn the knife immediately.

"Then he spoke to me and asked who I was.

"I said I was the distant niece of the man in the coffin, he said he didn't know me, I said I went to the mountains to learn martial arts since I was a child, he said that the man didn't have a niece.

"I still want to make up some stories, but when I think about it, I'm already full, and I'll leave tomorrow after patting my ass, and I also gave you the gift money, and I kowtowed my head, so what if I eat your meal ? Just because you can tell me to spit it out?"

The woman held a long knife in her arm, and hit her left hand with her right hand, with a snap:
"I'll just say it straight. I was just passing by. I went the wrong way. I finished my food. I was so hungry that I couldn't help it. Seeing that someone was hosting a banquet here, I came here to catch a gift and have a meal.

"The old man laughed. He said that he didn't know most of the people here, and some of them hadn't seen each other for more than ten years. Some people not only came empty-handed every time, but also had to ask for some money when they left. Others just They just came here for a good meal, and they refused to knock their heads. As for the friends they used to date, even if they are not dead, they are all old, unable to walk, and none of them can come. These people who came today are not as good as I am sincere in this rubbish.

"I laughed too.

"After chatting with him for a while, I felt sleepy and fell asleep."

There was no other sound under the old tree.

The adults were thoughtful, and the children stared at her with wide open eyes. Although Mistress Sanhua thought it would be more fun to climb up the tree to catch birds, she still sat beside Song You obediently, wrapping her tail around her little feet. , bowed his head and licked the fur on his chest, combing it neatly.

"When I woke up again, it was the next morning, and it was foggy. Someone came to me and said that I was a distinguished guest, and they wanted to invite me to sit at the table and eat the best table.

"Do you even need to think about it?
"It must be because the old man had a good chat with me last night and thought I was a nice person, that's why the junior came to invite me.

"In the end, they told me on the way that they had a dream last night in which their dead father told them that I was his distant niece and daughter whom he hadn't seen for a long time, and told them to entertain me well. When they woke up, they were surprised and I thought it was miraculous, and after discussing with each other, I came to look for it, but I didn't expect to find me."

At this moment, the children cried out in surprise.

"I didn't believe it at first, but I went to the coffin to have a look... Oh, I don't know if you know that when we hold funerals, the coffin is not tightly closed during the funeral, and there is a gap left. Cover the lid and lift it up the mountain to bury it, so you can see the people inside when you get close.

"I took a closer look--

"It's that old man from last night!
"The clothes are all the same!"

The children's eyes widened.

"and after?"

"Later, I ate breakfast there. When I left, they prepared chicken legs, dried meat and buns for me. They asked someone to show me the way, and they insisted on giving me five taels of silver."

"How much is five taels of silver?"

"About six thousand."

"How much is six thousand?"

"A lot anyway."

"Do you want it?"

"Haha, how is it possible? How can I have the nerve to ask for such a large amount of money? I just went to eat, and I should leave when I am full, but I brought the chicken legs and jerky back to the master, for my master." The brothers all tasted it, and it was delicious."

"Wow……"

Compared with the story told by the old man before, the story told by the woman is neither so fantasy nor so scary, but the personal experience is better than the truth. comparable.

And this story has its own wit and fun. Children don't know what's so good, but they like it when they hear it.

"Tell me one more time."

"The heroine will tell you one more thing."

"Sister~"

"The mouth is so sweet! I have met monsters and ghosts several times, and I have heard of many, but I don't want to talk about it today." After the woman finished speaking, she glanced sideways at the Taoist priest next to her, and saw that the Taoist priest looked as if With a thoughtful aftertaste, he couldn't help but smiled slightly, and said to the children, "There is a Taoist priest standing next to him. If you don't pester him, what are you pestering me for?"

After hearing the words, a group of children looked at Song You again.

Xu had given them experience and courage from getting along with the woman before, so they immediately came to pester him to talk about it.

Song You couldn't bear it.

After listening for so long, it's hard to leave.

He also didn't expect that a lot of stories were told on the boat a few days ago, and now he would tell them here again.

Just don't tell the same story twice.

What are you talking about?

"..."

Song You looked at the group of young children in front of him. He saw that they had heard a lot of scary stories before. Hearing what the woman said just now, he had already calmed down a bit, but I am afraid it was only temporary. Will be so scared that I can't sleep, and even have shadows for a while...

Then dilute it again.

So he lowered his head and glanced at the well-behaved three-flowered cat at his feet: "I also tell a story that I actually saw, a story about the cat temple on the roadside, the cat god."

Sanhuamao looked up at the sound and stared at him suspiciously.

Song You just smiled slightly:

"About the end of summer and early autumn of last year, half a year ago, I traveled down the mountain, walked the Jinyang Road, and saw a small temple. The one enshrined in the small temple was not a human being or an immortal, but a cat..."

Song You also spoke in detail.

I couldn't help but put a smile on my face.

Sanhuamao was puzzled at first, but later became dumbfounded.

Time often brings a sense of trance.
