The morning air in the woods is so comfortable, taking away all the stale air from my lungs.
My eyes glanced at a place in the forest, my pupils suddenly dilated, and I shouted to the aunt who was driving: "Auntie, stop the car."
The car stopped, I quickly opened the door and ran out, walking to a cave not far away.
Everything here is very consistent with the scene in my dream.
During the day, he was chasing after me, panting slightly: "It's so early in the morning, I'm possessed by a ghost, and I suddenly ran here."
"No, I seemed to have dreamed of this place last night."
"Have you dreamed about it? All caves look the same, so it's not surprising that you have dreamed about it."
No, I'm sure of it.
But I didn't know how to tell Bai Tian about all this, so I could only take her into the cave with me.
The cave is very narrow, and although it is daytime outside, it does not prevent the phosphorus powder on the stone walls from shining brightly.
When I reached the depths of the cave, my steps paused slightly.
Although there was no white fox in front of him, there was a pool of blood on the ground, as well as some gauze powder, and there was even blood on the gauze.
I quickly ran up, picked up the medicine bottle, and made sure there were words on the bottom of the bottle.
These medicines are all developed by me, so there will be a word "Rui" on the bottom.
At this time, the bottom of the bottle is engraved with Rui, which means that everything yesterday was not a dream, and I really saved a fox.
Seeing the dull look on my face, I also believed that things were not simple during the day, so I asked in a soft tone: "What dream did you have yesterday? Can you tell me about it?"
I didn't hide anything and told all the dreams I had yesterday.
After listening to it during the day, he comforted: "There is no spiritual energy here, which means that the fox has been gone for a while."
I sighed and said with some emotion: "I wonder how the wounds on its body are doing?"
"Don't worry, their lives are much tougher than yours. Okay, let's go. I'm starving to death."
Since the fox will be fine, I feel relieved.
Putting the medicinal powder into my bag, I followed Tian Tian out of the cave and got into the car.
The rest of the trip went extremely smoothly. We found a breakfast shop, had a simple meal, and drove another two hours to the village.
Auntie and mother look very much like each other. The moment grandma saw auntie, all the corn in her hand fell to the ground: "My child...his mother?"
"Nai, she is not my mother, she is my aunt! My mother's biological sister." I explained to my grandma.
After hearing my words, Nai reacted.
Nai is very warm and hospitable, especially after knowing the identity of the aunt, she cooked a lot of dishes at noon: "Girl, our village is relatively poor and we only have a simple diet. Please don't mind."
"No, it's already very good. In fact, I came here specifically to pay homage to my sister's tomb."
Nai sighed: "It's time to say goodbye. My man picked the child up from the mountain and lost his memory. He even forgot his name."
The aunt's eyes were red, she lowered her head and said nothing.
This meal was not delicious for everyone. After taking my aunt to the mountain to worship, she did not stay long and wanted to go back that night.
"Auntie, why are you in such a hurry to go back? It's hard to come to the village and I will show you around."
Auntie chuckled lightly and touched my hair: "No, I still have something to do."
"You can't let anything go."
"I have to tell your grandpa the whereabouts of your mother."
This sentence successfully blocked the rest of my words in my throat. This was the first time that my aunt mentioned grandpa and grandma.
"This village is very beautiful, and your grandma is also very kind. After auntie finishes her work, she will definitely come and stay here for a few days."
"Well, it's okay to go back in the afternoon. I'll prepare some specialties for you. You can take them back to... give them to your grandparents to eat."
"good."
When I heard my aunt agreed, I turned around excitedly and went to get ready. Agriculture in the village was relatively prosperous, so I packed three full sacks of specialties for my aunt. If the trunk hadn't been full, I guess I could have packed a few more bags.
She looked dumbfounded at the stuffed trunk: "Xiao Rui, there are so many, my aunt can't finish them."
"It's okay. Some of them are pickled products. They can only be placed in a dry and refreshing place. It won't be a problem if they are placed during the Chinese New Year." After saying that, I clapped my hands with satisfaction and closed the trunk without giving anything to my aunt. Opportunity to shirk.
"Okay, thank you then."
It's afternoon now, and the sun has begun to tilt. If it's too late, it's not safe to go on the road.
After saying a few words of farewell, the aunt drove away in the car.
I don’t know why, but my heart is always warm. Maybe it’s because I know that I still have other relatives in this world.
After Auntie left, life seemed to return to its original state. The Chinese medicine clinic became even busier and closed almost at midnight every day.
I yawned, washed up, lay down on the bed, and slept until dawn.
Just as he was about to turn over, his hand touched something warm.
What the hell? Did a stray cat or dog sneak into my room?
This is not impossible. Rural areas do not pay attention to family planning. Cats and dogs can produce a lot of children if they see the right things, and they are everywhere.
My eyes opened wide and when I found something lying next to me, I exclaimed: "Nine-tailed fox!"
The white fox lying on my bed seemed to be a little angry about getting out of bed. He opened his eyes and glanced at me dissatisfied. He changed his position and continued to sleep on his stomach. However, the eight tails on his tail were merged together because they were too small. Together, just like one.
I didn't dare to wake it up anymore, so I got out of bed carefully and went to the next room to find the daylight.
I slept soundly during the day, lying on my back with a doll in my arms.
I quickly pushed her: "It's daytime! Don't sleep. Something bad is going to happen. That nine-tailed fox appears in my room!"
"Ah?" She reluctantly opened her eyes and glanced at me. The next second, she picked up the quilt and covered her ears. She said impatiently, "The nine-tailed fox is a spirit fox. It knows kindness and repays kindness. You save me." It's probably here to repay a favor, and it won't pose any threat to you."
"Then how should I get along with him!"
"It's better to get along normally for a long time, otherwise just tell it a wish of yours and ask him to help you realize it, and he will disappear."
I wanted to continue asking, but Bai Tian rudely interrupted me: "Get out of here quickly, I want to sleep. If you don't leave, I will punch you out!"
The words were full of warning. I was afraid that she would really knock me out, so I immediately put away all my questions and left the room during the day.
