Old dog tell weird stories

Demon Fox

This was many years ago.

It was the fourth year of college, the units are looking for almost, there is still a last period of leisurely college time, so decided to do a sensational graduation trip, from Beijing to Tibet by bicycle.

I said I was going to Tibet, but I actually rode for a week, and when I got to the border of Henan, I couldn't ride anymore, so I hurriedly got off the national highway and tried to find a village to stay in.

It was evening and we were starving, but the place was in the middle of nowhere, all the graveyards, nothing could be found, and finally we came across a village in a ravine, but we found the whole village was dark, not a single household had light, and not a single household had people, and there was not even a dog barking, the whole village had a dead air.

There was a more honest students, called Lao Yan, he went over to look, saw a few knife marks on the lintel, then his face changed, and pushed us out, let us go immediately, immediately!

Although I do not know what he because, but this village looks evil, we are also quite afraid, and continue to go.

Rode forward a dozen miles, finally saw some light, looking for a family looked Yin food to stay, asked about the village we met, but the man's face changed, asked if we had gone in?

We hurriedly said, no, no!

The man's face only slightly eased a little, said we are really lucky ah, if we really went in, it is estimated that can not get out of it!

Of course we had to ask him what was going on?

The man lamented: "There, is our side of the famous ghost village, not to mention people, even a wild dog dare not go in!"

We hurriedly asked, "What happened to their village? Could it be that they have leprosy?"

The man sighed: "This thing to say, it's really a sin!"

He said that the village in front of us was originally called Xiu Cai Village. The reason why it is called Xiu Cai Village is because it has good feng shui. From the Ming Dynasty, every generation has to produce a few talent, really strong families, prosperous people.

Who knows which, then the village out of a shrew, called Yuan San. This Yuan San all day cheating, uneducated and unskilled. Later, I do not know how, got a strange disease, all over the bowl of pustules, the pain all day rolling around.

At this time passed by a fortune-telling blind man, the blind man knows the art of Zhou Yi, will use the bushes to tell fortunes, then they picked a few bushes, in the ground a hand, said he went out to the east, straight to the Taihang Mountains, to the mountains, have been running up, fell, grabbed in the hand of a grass, directly swallowed into the mouth, you can cure your poison.

This Yuan San began to disbelieve, will this blind man cursed, and then the pain can not open their eyes, took advantage of the night to run to the Taihang Mountains, fell down and touched a handful of grass, hard pinch nose and swallowed into the stomach.

As a result, I did not expect that after a while, I felt that the abscess on my body did not hurt so much, and I could open my eyes. Looking around, he saw a golden light in a cave in front of him, a white fox sitting in the cave swallowing red pills.

He had an eye, ambushed in the grass, and waited for the fox fairy to leave, quietly feel the cave, only to find that the cave pile of gold.

This Yuan San is usually used to brutality, then obsessed, not only will the fox fairy cave gold to take all, but also set fire to the fox fairy cave, with the gold and silver ran away in the night.

You think ah, the fox fairy saw, but also great, looking for Yuan San can not, they cast a spell, so that the family next to the cave suffered a series of disasters, a family of eight, all dead.

After the death of the family, it is not over, the village is still always in trouble, a while east of the accident, a while west of the accident, the village people have no choice, or go over to beg the old blind man.

The old blind man and use the bushes to calculate a fortune, sigh, said that the will of God is difficult to defy ah, the fox fairy cave was living in the fox fairy thirty-seventh generation of descendants, are sincere cultivation of the spirit of immortality, was a fire all burned to death.

Now the fox fairy is furious, the court of heaven, would rather destroy a thousand years of Taoism, but also to let you village to pay for life! Now is the great gods can not save you, the village has become a "ghost village".

Can no longer live, you better hurry to move away. The sealing of the door means that the fox fairy to seal the village door to extinction, the village men can not marry, women can not give birth to children, until the village is all dead. If someone goes against this, is to marry a wife and children, that family will certainly be a series of disasters, until the family died.

The head of the family said, the news came out, who still dare to marry over, the village people are also discussing to move out, the results of the first family at the head of the village do not believe in evil, and the village to marry a girl, the results of the girl has not been seven days, several people in the family died clean, and finally the girl also stood on the echelon chair, hanging from the beam to kill themselves.

You are foreigners, you do not know, our custom here, if the family died horizontally, on the lintel with a kitchen knife cut a gap, you go to see, where which family lintel, there are no two or three knife gap, that place is evil!

We then understood why the old Yan looked at the lintel at the time, the face changed, let us hurry to exit, the original there is such a statement.

The next morning, a few of us urged Lao Yan to take us to the ghost village adventure.

We asked the place, riding all the way to the Fox Fairy Cave soon.

Fox Fairy Cave on a hill next to the village, is a naturally formed ancient cave, the cave was painted with white powder outside a circle, the mouth of the cave is more than one person high, inside placed a clay statue of the Fox Fairy, has been peeling, the ground is inserted with some old incense, incense case with some cakes, pig's head, has long been blackened and deteriorated.

Just close to the cave, you can smell a heavy fishy smell, the ancient cave outward seepage of cold, eerie, the cave mouth piled with a lot of newly pulled out of the sand and soil, sand and soil is also interspersed with many bones.

I took a step back and said, "How do I look at this place like a wolf's nest, brothers, hurry up and copy!"

Everyone tied several torches on the ground and lit them, and several people carefully walked into the cave.

Not far away, the cave opened up, the torch left and right, only to find that the Fox Fairy Cave turned out to be a large cave. There are many strange-shaped stalactites in the cave, by the torch, shining, like entering the legendary secret cave of hidden treasures.

Walking to the end, I found another deep pit in the cave, the pit is obviously later excavated, outside the cave piled up a large pile of sand and gravel, sand and gravel full of various shapes of bones, these bones and sand and gravel intermingled, as if they have become one.

Looking down, I heard Lao Yan call out, "Look!"

Turning back to look, he was staring at a large stone. The stone was carved with a pattern, the stone does not know how many years, the stone walls are peeling, but can still be vaguely seen, the pattern is a small black paste beast, shaped like a fox, but like a human, sitting on the boulder, paws shaking a purple bell, looking up at the sky.

Looking at this painting, also feel some odd, and can not say, how to describe that feeling, like you see the fox made a human expression, will also be amazed.

But Lao Yan has always been calm, why would he act so alarmed?

It is strange, but the old Yan from the neck to untie a pendant, show me. The pendant is heavy, slightly cool in the hand, a cold feeling upward along the fingertips. I thought it was jade, repeatedly touched, then I knew it was wrong, it was a piece of incense statue, the incense does not know how many generations, has been rubbed to jade, touch like an ancient jade.

I have seen three generations of old walnuts, the walnuts have been disc for an unknown number of years, human blood into the walnuts, has jade into stone, but this jade incense wood is the first time to see.

The ancients used to say "sink sandalwood dragon musk", the "sink" refers to the incense. Incense was ranked by the ancients as the first of all incense. It is mixed with resin and other cohesion, the more resin, the better the quality, will also be heavier. The ancients used to test the incense with water and grade it, and the one who sinks in water is called "sink water incense"; the one who half floats and half sinks is called "stack incense"; the one who sinks slightly in water is the most inferior and is called "yellow ripe incense".

Incense in ancient times was called "a piece of ten thousand gold", very precious. First of all, only decades of old incense trees may form incense, from the incense to mature and take many years, incense mature, the top quality is rare, so the top quality natural incense is almost priceless. Like this pendant, although not large, but the weight of color, and smell a far-reaching fragrance, although I do not know the price, it is estimated that the same volume of diamonds and almost the price.

But more shocking to me, but the pendant is carved on the head.

This pendant is carved on a huge fox, the fox sitting on a large stone, looking up to the sky to worship the moon, it looks like a Taoist master.

I suddenly thought, this pendant on the strange objects, but the stone wall and the things have seven points similar.

I also wondered what the relationship between the two was.

At this time a student said, what is it, the stone carved things, everything, his hometown in southern Fujian is also popular to wear fox pendant it!

I said, "That's different, there is a fox fairy custom in southern Fujian, it is said that the fox fairy can bring wealth, peach blossom luck, I see you think about your daughter-in-law all day long, but should wear one."

Then shine the torch, found that behind the stone statue is a stone cave, not only large, but also very deep. Inside erected a few wood, made a very simple ladder, stepped on the wooden ladder down, found that the bottom is two large holes, eerie, do not know where to lead, we hesitated, in the end did not dare to go in.

Later, Old Yan went in alone with a torch for a while. We all thought he had something wrong, and shouted at him desperately, and only after a while he came out with a gray face, saying that the hole was too evil, halfway down the road, saw a thick layer of human bones stacked inside, and palm-sized poisonous scorpions, he did not dare to go inside, hurry back.

But for the other details of the cave, no matter how we asked him, he was ironically never speak again.

After coming out of the cave, we left the place in a hurry, sold a few bikes to the scrapyard, and bought a ticket back to Beijing.

Later, I met Old Yan once, and when the two of us were drinking, we mentioned this matter again, and he said that the Fox Fairy Cave was actually an ancient tomb hidden deep in the mountains, and would never be a wolf's nest. You see the circles painted with white powder on the stone wall, that is the wolf-proof. The wolves are suspicious and dare not enter the cave when they see the white circles and think they are traps. Maybe because of the earthquake, maybe because of the landslide, an opening was opened on the mountain, revealing the burial pit inside, which was discovered by the tomb robbers, and you can see that there are skeletons everywhere in the stone cave, which are the skeletons of human martyrs during the tomb repair.

It is estimated that the tomb robbers are afraid of news leaks, they bought the shrew Yuan San, in the fox fairy cave in the ghosts, spreading rumors, the fishy smell in the cave, are made out. Perhaps it is a coincidence, perhaps the tomb robbers kill to silence, the rumors of this fox fairy killings become more and more prevalent, and finally the entire village moved away, the tomb robbers also took the opportunity to sneak the treasures in the tomb away, the cave was also deserted.

This talk is reasonable, I did not think much about it, and so it passed.

At that time, the old Yan just married, the object is the flower of our department, he was also assigned to a very good unit, I certainly want to bless them, spent two months of salary to buy a bracelet to him.

Many years later, one big winter, I passed by the marketplace, met his wife. His wife was haggard, carrying a few large cabbages and walking hurriedly on the road.

I hurriedly stopped the car and asked her to come up, and asked about Lao Yan's situation.

His wife said that she had been divorced from Yan for years. The old Yan has not been normal, I do not know why, he ran all year long to Henan, so that people are not human, ghosts are not ghosts, a fishy smell.

Later, he behaved more extreme, began to worship the fox fairy, every day cross-legged meditation, and sometimes learn the fox bark, look at people's eyes are hairy, do not feel like a normal person.

Then one day woke up in the middle of the night, found him in the kitchen eating a live chicken, full of chicken blood, eyes hideous and horrible, she immediately ran out barefoot, the next day and righteousness and old Yan divorced.

The north wind whistling hanging up, blowing in the face of the raw pain, I do not know what to say for a while, and finally asked: "So where is he now?"

She shook her head: "I don't know ...... maybe still over at the Henan Fox Cave ......"

Before leaving, she said: "That, if you meet him later, help me to bring him a message: if he can change back, I am still willing to live with him ......"
