Chapter 66 The Daughter of Jiangdong (4)

"That's not a legend, it's an absolutely true thing. Nine out of ten people who don't believe in evil and go up the mountain these years can't come back. They are crazy when they come back, and they shout every day that they saw the fox demon. Hu Gongzi You should know this, how can you bring the girl up the mountain?" The waiter didn't know whether he was anxious or angry, and stomped his feet.

But his exaggerated and anxious expression failed to impress Ms. Su, as if Hu was deliberately trying to frame her. From her point of view, he might not be able to tell who was up to something.

There was no expression of disgust on her face, and she asked instead: "Has anyone really seen the fox demon?"

"How dare you deceive the girl with this little one? Who in this city doesn't know that Nanshan is dangerous? Since the girl has heard the legend of the fox being trapped, she must also know that the two foxes have to molt every ten years. Think about it once? Girls, think about it, they shed their skin and change their bones, what kind of skin are they shedding, and what kind of bones are they replacing? They are human skin and bones!"

"people?"

"The skin and bones are all flesh, and the pain is on top of the flesh, so as long as they abandon their original flesh and transfer their souls into another flesh before the ten-year deadline, the pain they have to bear will be greatly reduced. It is said Every ten years, the fox demon will cast a mirage-like spell on the mountain to attract passing travelers up the mountain. In the past thousands of years, they are still practicing on the mountain. If they can get a suitable body when they complete their cultivation, I am afraid that the magic of the gods will not be able to do so. Bind them again."

"You mean they're going down the mountain?"

"That's natural. They were originally ferocious beasts in the mountains. Isn't it because they want to enjoy themselves in the world?"

Ms. Su sneered: "Then how do you know they are still on the mountain? What if they have already gone down the mountain, are they in this city, or right in front of your eyes?" She raised her eyes with a smile on purpose Smile, a smile is alluring, with a variety of styles, it seems to be mischievous and provocative, and it also seems to be seductive.

The waiter in the shop was stunned at first, and then took two steps back in fright. For a moment, he couldn't figure out whether Miss Su was teasing or joking: "The little one is for the sake of the girl. If the girl doesn't believe it, don't blame the little one for not reminding me when I meet a goblin when I go up the mountain." After that, he hastily wiped the table, turned around and walked away quickly, because he walked too fast, and his leg hit the chair.

Seeing the shop waiter limping back to the back kitchen, Ms. Su's smile slowly disappeared.

Hucai came back from the outside at noon, when he saw him enter the store, the waiter surrounded him first: "My lord, I heard that you are going to Nanshan?"

Hu was very surprised, and asked, "Who did you hear that from?"

"The girl who stayed in the hotel with you yesterday, son, you are a local, you know the things on the mountain, you can't harm her."

Hu looked at the waiter in the shop, and said with a wry smile: "Don't worry, the Nanshan mountain road is rugged, the terrain is steep, the mountain is densely covered with jungle, and there are dangers everywhere. I think she will retreat when she sees it. Even if I am here, I can't dissuade her. Might as well let Shan tell her."

The waiter hesitated: "But why does she have to go to Nanshan?"

"Oh, because people's hearts are always delusional." After Hu replied, he ignored the dazed waiter, and went upstairs on his own.

Miss Su had been waiting in the room for a long time, Hu first apologized to her, and then explained why he went to worship his parents at the foot of Nanshan first.His parents were buried in the south of Nanshan Mountain, and the destination of their trip was to the north of Nanshan Mountain. There were two roads to go, and the distance was very long. Have a good rest at the inn.

"If you want to go up the mountain to see Mojia, there are still many hardships waiting for the young lady." He smiled nonsense.

Miss Su thought of something, and asked: "When you lived in Jiangxi, did you hear that someone saw a fox demon?"

Hu laughed and said: "Of course I have heard of it. Although there are still many legends, the local people are very keen on the fox monster. Every year, four or five people claim to have seen the fox monster. Some say that the fox monster eats people, and they say it vividly." , Some say they are infected with immortal energy, and use this to deceive others."

"There is such a thing?" Miss Su was very surprised, these people, even goblins can use it to deceive people, it is really amazing, "Then you don't believe it?"

"If you don't believe it, you will believe it. In the world, what is false and what is true, what is true and what is false, it all depends on a worldly heart to distinguish. If you believe in it, it doesn't necessarily mean that there are foxes on the mountain; if you don't believe it, it doesn't mean that there are no foxes on the mountain."

"Then how can you say that you can see the gods by following the method of the young master?"

Hu smiled, but did not answer.

Miss Su stared at him suspiciously, waited for a while, and then said: "The fairy and the demon are illusory and illusory forms. From what people see, how can they distinguish which is the demon and which is the fairy? Maybe the fox demon they saw is the demon fox. God of Jia, maybe the god you are talking about is a goblin cultivated by a fox? I don’t know how they met the goblin, and I don’t know where the method of seeing the god that you said came from. It’s not that I don’t trust you , but the doubts in my heart cannot be resolved, I hope you will not be offended."

Hu still smiled, shook his head and said: "Miss is overthinking, Xiaosheng just doesn't want to talk about the fact that he has seen a god, as if he is in the company of that group of liars."

"Have you seen it with your own eyes?"

"Yes, I've seen it with my own eyes." Hu nodded, and the scene of that day came back to his mind, "It's a long story. At that time, Xiaosheng buried his parents at the foot of the mountain, and knelt in front of their grave until dark. Xiaosheng had no brothers. Two old people When Shuang Shuang passed away, the world seemed empty, without even a single thought. I don't know how long it took, Xiaosheng raised his head, and saw a white light halfway up the mountain. He didn't know what it was, and he didn't feel afraid. Walked towards the light."

Miss Su was fascinated by what she heard, and asked, "Is that Mojia?"

Hu nodded again: "Xiaosheng came closer and realized that the light was coming from a man in white clothes, but he couldn't see his appearance clearly. He only heard him ask why Xiaosheng knelt down at the foot of the mountain for a long time, and Xiaosheng said it was kneeling." In front of his parents' grave, he said what was he going to do? Can people who died on their knees be brought back to life? Xiaosheng said no. Then he laughed, saying that Xiaosheng was the first person to see him, he One of Xiaosheng’s wishes can be fulfilled. Xiaosheng said that he didn’t have a wish yet, so he laughed again, and told Xiaosheng how to find him again, saying that if he has a wish in the future, he can use this method to find him.”

"Young Master, why didn't you say a wish at that time, just say anything, maybe he really helped you realize it."

"Maybe, Xiaosheng really wanted to say one at the time. Xiaosheng wanted to say: 'If you are really a fairy, let your parents come back to life.'"

"Why don't you say it?"

"Because Xiaosheng thought," Hu sighed softly, "even if they come back to life, they will die again one day. How could Xiaosheng use his wish to make them suffer the pain of dying twice."

Then Miss Su stopped talking, and sat there quietly looking at Hu, not knowing what she was thinking.

In the afternoon they set off and took a carriage to the north of Nanshan.After walking for a long time, the carriage finally arrived at the foot of Nanshan Mountain.

The sky was cloudy, and the clouds moved lazily across the top of the mountain, and the trail hovered over the mountain like a snake.Looking up from the bottom, the mountain looks gloomy, and its majesty is self-evident.Suddenly there was a long cry of an unknown animal, which startled a group of birds to come out of the woods and fly towards the sky in a dark mass.

Miss Su looked up, silent for a long time, and asked: "Is this Nanshan?"

Hu nodded: "Yes."

"Will you be able to see the God of Moga from here up the mountain?"

Hu still nodded, but remained silent.
