Chapter 6

Naturally, Gouzi knew the best of them, and he also knew that the Hua family couldn't live without such a couple.

The old grandmother on the side had already had a gloomy face, looked at the dog with displeasure, and stomped the black cane in her hand, "Don't say anything to Chunhua! Are you trying to make me mad? !"

"Daughter-in-law, sit down and eat first, don't say anything about whether you can leave or not, the whole family, Da Ya and Da Xiong are my dog's sons, I won't just favor Erya."

Gouzi finally couldn't bear the pressure of the crowd, so he said something to his wife.

"Seeing that the eldest brother has already spoken to you, sister-in-law, don't be angry, come on, sit down and eat, it looks like you have scared the children." Luo Mei took advantage of the situation and pulled Liu Chunhua to the chair and sat down.

The family is back to how it was before.

However, for some reason, the grandmother on the side suddenly became angry again. She looked at Hua Hua who was holding a bowl and kept silent on the opposite side with disgust, and cursed in a hoarse voice: "Huh, you don't want to worry about it!"

Huahua plucked her ears out of boredom, put down half a bowl of undrinked corn mush, which was much thinner than others, looked up, looked at the crowd without blushing, and said, "It's finished, eat slowly."

"Erya, there's still half a bowl left, why don't you eat it?" Luo Mei looked at the flowers and said puzzledly.

"Second aunt, you know, I eat less and I'm full."

Gouzi watched Erya leave the main house, picked up the basket and went out. He also put down the bowl in his hand, and sat on the threshold alone to smoke a pipe.

"Huh, if you have the ability to make a meal, don't eat it for my old lady!" Liu Chunhua looked at the gate where there was no figure, and snorted.

And the big bear who was always silent on the side also put down the bowl and chopsticks, looked at the grandmother respectfully and said, "Grandma, eat slowly, I'm going out."

Huahua was walking on the yellow dirt road in the village with a basket on her back. Occasionally, a strange wind would blow on the road, and the yellow sand would be rolled up all over the ground, blowing people all over their faces.

In the early morning, many old people in the village also came out of their homes one by one, moved a bench, sat at the door of the house and chatted with each other briefly.

Seeing Huahua in gray cloth and rough clothes walking towards the centuries-old yellow kudzu tree at the entrance of the village with a basket on her back, he began to point and point at her, not knowing what he was talking about.

Huahua pricked up her ears, but she heard something evil.

"Hey, the daughter of Gouzi's family, she was haunted by grieving ghosts, and her body was broken by those dirty things, it's pitiful."

The old woman in her seventies and eighties watched her walk by and sighed deeply.

Another old man next to her also echoed: "Yeah, I think we should go tell Gouzi one day, and let Xiao Xiaozi in the village exorcise Erya and that kid. Right now, life-saving is the most important thing."

"In the place of the Resentful Ghost Forest, she actually came out alive, which is considered a blessing."

What are you talking about?Huahua frowned and listened to those old people who were not talking enthusiastically. Wasn't it just being played by a man as a hooligan?Why are you getting involved with ghosts again?You're the ones talking shit!
This is not good in ancient times.

Turn your head, close your ears, and focus on going out of the village to find something to eat. It’s no wonder that the thin soup in the morning can fill your stomach. After drinking such thin soup for two days, the birds are almost fading out of her mouth, thinking about oily meat. It's tight, especially meat, so I decided to come out and get some game.

The big loess road in the village is east-west, separating the village with more than 80 households from the middle. On both sides of the road, except for the people, there is a square of fertile land, a variety of rice, followed by corn, potatoes, soybeans and the like. of.

The farther to the west, the less populated people are. Even the good land is hardly cultivated. After walking such a long and not short road, Huahua also noticed some problems.

On both sides of the road, the more we go forward, the more overgrown weeds are, and the wind blows by, and the rustling sound makes people feel a little hairy.

Grabbing a handful of soil in her hands, she saw that the soil was no worse than other places. In ancient times when food and clothing were the main purpose, there was no reason for the people here not to make good use of this great resource?

The reason why the flowers don't go to the east where everyone usually goes is because there is a mountain not far away. She doesn't dare to go wandering in the mountain by herself. Who knows if there are any tigers and leopards in this ancient mountain? Yes, that mad boar alone is enough for a man.

In the distance to the west, there is a plain with a large forest growing. The water that irrigates the farmland in the village flows down from it. Huahua guesses that it is a small river or a stream.

The water was very clear, icy and cold, probably the snow water from the snow mountain towering into the sky in the distance.

At the entrance of the village, there is a centuries-old kudzu tree. Not only is the trunk as thick as five people hugging each other, but its branches and leaves almost cover an area of ​​two acres of land.

There is a yellow kudzu tree at the head and tail of the village, and it is not known which generation of ancestors in Huajia Village planted it.

After getting closer, Huahua saw that under the yellow kudzu tree, there was actually a white-haired old man in black sitting. The man leaned on a crude crutch with a dragon head, and sat on a stone bench under the tree, which was simply built with stone slabs. The eyes seem to be resting.

Hua Hua hesitated whether to go forward to ask for directions, but she was also starting to be a little scared of this sparsely populated place.

The old man opened his mouth first, "Girl, come and talk to the old man when you come."

Hua Hua was startled, it turned out that the old lady was not asleep, "Oh, yes, mother-in-law, excuse me."

"Are you going to the Forest of Resentful Ghosts?" The old lady just stared at the front with a pair of dull eyes.

"Resentful Ghost Forest?" Hua Hua was naturally curious when she heard the name for the second time. Why is this name so infiltrating?

After being influenced by western medicine for almost five years, how could she believe in those strange things?After death, could it be that a cup of loess is turned into, where is there any soul left?

"That's right, little baby, the woods you see not far in front of you is the Grudge Forest. It's not a good place, it's full of ghosts. In the past, many people in our village were killed by those ghosts." Killed to go, no one has ever walked back from there alive."

"Um, mother-in-law, thank you for reminding me, I just want to go to the river above to catch some fish." She Huahua believes that there are ghosts, then there are really ghosts.

"Fish? It seems that people from my ancestors said that there is also a big pool in the woods. The water is so clear. In the past, our village's water was taken from there, but later, for some reason, there began to appear a lot of fish. The unclean things have killed many people, so we moved them out."

"Then why are you here, mother-in-law? There are so few people here, aren't you afraid?" Hua Hua asked curiously.
