Chapter 7 Wei Lao Liu

My surroundings were shrouded in this strange heavy fog. Similarly, the villagers chasing me also suddenly lost my position because their sight was blocked.

I heard them talking in the woods, and You Xiangui said, "She is nearby, look for me carefully!"

Zhang Doufu said anxiously: "Why did this person let her run away? You Xiangui'er, I want to make it clear to you first. If the person is not found, you can give me back every cent of the 40,000 yuan I gave you. Don’t even think about the remaining 40,000!”

You Xiangui said with assurance: "It's impossible to let her escape. We in Dafu Village have no such precedent!"

The word "precedent" is like a warning bell ringing above my head.

When I was going to school in the county, my classmates heard that my home was in Wanfu Township, and they all joked that this place was unsuitable because it was a cannibal, especially a woman.

They are actually right, Wan Bless, the name is so auspicious, but this place really eats women. It takes more than several hours to walk on the old road in the mountains to get out of the mountain, and the mountain road is winding and winding. It is easy for non-locals to get lost. Going deeper and deeper.

Because of poverty, it has always been difficult to find a wife in this village, so for many years, if any family in this village has a daughter, they will exchange marriages when they get old!

What is marriage exchange? It means marrying into another family that has a daughter, so that the men in your family can marry a daughter-in-law and continue the family line!

And those families who really don't have any daughters to exchange for a bride, if they want to get a wife, will save several years of money and find a man named Gui Laoliu to ask for a wife.

I have never seen Ghost Lao Liu, but I heard the children in the village scream that he looks like a toad and is very scary.

I stumbled around in the fog for a long time, but I never heard You Xiangui and the others' voices again. The fog gradually dispersed in the mountains and forests. With my habit of living in the mountains since I was a child, I finally walked out of this strange place. Mountain.

I looked back at the tall mountains and said softly: "Thank you——"

I felt that the owner of the stone tablet heard my prayers and appeared to help me escape. I swore from the bottom of my heart that if I had the opportunity in the future, I would come back to find the stone tablet and enshrine the Cangxian Lord in another feng shui treasure land. .

After this journey of escaping, I walked on the path out of the mountain exhausted. As long as I walked along this road for a few hours, I could reach the town. There were many people there. As long as I took a bus to the county, I would escape from this sea of ​​misery. Got it!

"Little girl, are you going to town?" A donkey cart came slowly behind me, and an old woman was sitting in the cart. The old woman had a kind face. She came to me and stopped to ask me.

I nodded and replied: "I go to school in the county. Now I'm going to the town to take a bus back to school!"

The old woman waved to me and said, "Come up here. This mountain road is difficult to walk. I will take you there."

I hesitated for a moment and looked back at the rugged mountain road. Taking a donkey cart would save a lot of energy, so I sat on it.

The old woman suddenly asked in confusion: "Today is not a holiday. Why did you just go back to school today?"

I replied disappointedly: "An elder in my family passed away, and I came back to attend the funeral——"

"Oh I got it."

As the donkey cart moved forward, the old woman handed me a kettle and said, "Looking at you, you must be exhausted. Take a drink of water!"

I was about to reach out and take it, but then I thought of something and waved my hand, "I'm not thirsty!"

I glanced at the donkey cart, which contained some sweet potatoes. It looked like it was going to the town to sell.

Just like this, the donkey cart was walking slowly on the old road. I said to the old woman: "Mother-in-law, please stop under the tree in front of me. I want it to be convenient!"

The old woman said: "How can a girl's house be convenient outside? There is a household in front of me that I know. You can go to his house for convenience!"

The donkey cart didn't stop, but I didn't dare to sit on it anymore. There was something wrong with this old woman!
