Youyou Sanshengyue

The night was very dark.

Fisherman Boss Lu looked at the empty fishing net just pulled out of the water, mixed with small fish and shrimp, the cold moonlight was reflected into his eyes by the smooth scales of the fish and shrimp, bit by bit, the faint and rare dazzling light .

"Alas—" Boss Lu let out a long sigh, exhaling a cloud of hot and humid white mist that dissipated in the air.Winter is the most difficult time for fishermen, and they often cast their fishing nets and wait for a day without gaining much.He thought to himself that he would not be able to drink the wine for the past few days, he had no fish and no money, and he would definitely be scolded by his wife when he went back.Put away the fishing nets, pour the poor little fish into the bamboo basket, and walk into the dark night on the path.

It was pitch black all around, and the chirping of apes and the wailing of jackdaws echoed in the distant valley.Although Boss Lu didn't carry the lantern, he walked on the ground as if walking on the ground. After all, he has walked this road for decades, and he can walk home even with his eyes closed.Gradually, he vaguely heard the mournful cry of a woman not far away.Boss Lu couldn't help speeding up his pace, and saw a large stone lying across the middle of the path, and a woman in white was sitting on the stone covering her face and crying, her thin shoulders trembling slightly with grief, and her loose black hair flying in the wind.

"I don't remember that there are stones on this road?" Boss Lu speeded up his pace in doubt, secretly speculating that there might be something strange here, he couldn't help but feel shivering, and didn't dare to talk to the woman in white, so he turned sideways around the stone and continued on his way.

Something terrible happened.Before Boss Lu took a few steps, another stone appeared in front of him. The woman in white was still sitting on the stone covering her face and crying, as if she had never moved, but it seemed that Boss Lu had returned to the original point.

He was afraid. Although he had heard many supernatural stories in the village since he was a child, he was not a coward, but when he actually encountered it, he was still shrouded in great fear.Boss Lu walked around the stone again and ran away. The crying behind him gradually disappeared. Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, he suddenly found a woman in white sitting on the stone in front of him!At this time, the woman had stopped crying, covering her face with her long white sleeves, and remained silent.Boss Lu's feet trembled from fright, and he couldn't walk half a step, as if he was nailed to the ground, he could only stare at her with frightened eyes.

"Young master, why don't you pay attention to my slave family?" The woman in white suddenly opened her mouth and slowly turned her face—it was the face of a weasel covered with khaki fluff!

Boss Lu fainted to the ground with a scream.

On the second day, a male corpse floated up from the lotus pond beside the small town. The corpse was already swollen with water, and swelled like a white steamed bun. There were bloodstains on the neck from being bitten, exposing the white neck bone.What is even more astonishing is that the body was naked, the heart was pulled out, and the fist-sized red hole on the chest stimulated the nerves of every witness.

The next few days were followed by several similar deaths of fishermen.

It is said that Ming You and his party stayed in the capital for a while because of Boss Qian's hospitality, and when they returned to the small town, it was already the evening after the tenth day of the Lantern Festival.Lin Wenfang was carrying a bulging luggage, which looked like a turtle shell from a distance.Although Ming You and Xuan Yue didn't speak, they both knew each other well, and they just looked at each other and smiled.

On the way back, Lin Wenfang seemed uncomfortable, blushing and peeking secretly at Mingyou, opening his mouth to say something and then closing it, when the lotus blossoms were approaching, Lin Wenfang could no longer hold back and tugged at Mingyou's sleeve in a low voice. He begged: "I, Mr. Lin, never ask for help, so you should help your brother once and talk less when you see Miss He."

"Don't call me a brother, my brother is better at pleasing girls than I am." Ming You deliberately teased, the cynical look of that kid Jiang Mingli appeared in his mind, and he didn't know what Jiangzi Villa was tossed into by him, but You Hui The elder and Sheng Xiao's assistance shouldn't cause much trouble.

The afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled finely on the empty lotus pond, sparkling water waves appeared, and the bottom of the water seemed to have sunk golden gold, flashing golden light.The three of them waited by the river, and the shadow was stretched behind them and connected to a focal point, which was an unexpectedly warm scene.Lin Wenfang looked around looking for He Xiaohe's figure, his expression could not conceal his anxiety.

"There isn't even a fisherman, it looks like we're going to sleep in the wild." Ming You stretched and sat down by the lake, with a slow and leisurely attitude.Xuanyue, who was silent at the side, yawned impatiently.

At this time, a head suddenly poked out from the dead trees on the other side of the river, stared at the three of them for a while, and then ran out, calling "Master Dark You" with a voice like a silver bell, while jumping on the boat and quickly swaying the oar Headed across the river.

As soon as he got on the boat and sat down, Ming You asked: "The fishermen are already early, why are there no people around at this time?"

"I still sneaked out," He Xiaohe recounted to them the spooky events that had happened in the town in the past few days, and added: "Others went home early before dusk, and I was thinking about the young masters." , just sneak out every day to see if you have arrived, I am afraid that you will not be able to catch a boat. A few days ago, I even ran a few times and didn’t meet them. Coincidentally, didn’t I meet them this time.”

"Why is it a girl..." Before Min You could finish speaking, Xuan Yue elbowed him, signaling him to pay attention to Lin Wenfang's pale face.Ming You suppressed a smile, raised his hand and made a gesture of "please" to Lin Wenfang, then he blushed and took out a lotus-shaped lantern from the package and handed it to He Xiaohe, "This is a lantern... I mean ...When I saw the lotus, I thought of Miss He."

"Thank you for the lantern. In the future, there will be lotus flowers in the lotus swing in winter." He Xiaohe took the lantern and looked at it, and then looked at the stupid student in front of him who was blushing to the ears. He thought he was cute, and couldn't help laughing: "You It's so interesting!" She hung the lantern on the bow of the boat, and the lantern hung on the river and swayed with the boat, like a lotus flower blowing by the spring breeze.

"Where is it, I am just doing my best, as long as Miss He likes it."

Afterwards, the two chatted a few more words, Lin Wenfang was not as restrained as before, and Ming You closed his mouth cooperatively, the two chatted speculatively, but the topic always revolved around the recent supernatural events that happened one after another, and the atmosphere was inevitable. Some gloomy.When He Xiaohe stomped his feet and complained angrily: "It's because some bastard pulled the yellow talisman at the entrance of the village, and the goblins on Tianling Mountain ran out to do evil", Ming You's heart sank suddenly, as if he was weighing heavily Stone.That night he tore all the yellow talismans with his own hands, and broke the rope... Ming You coughed unnaturally, thinking that he must investigate this matter clearly, if he caused the trouble, the crime would be terrible. It's big.

Lin Wenfang tried his best to excuse his village: "If there are goblins in Tianling Mountain, they will first harm the villagers of Tianling Village. Why do you go to the town to do evil?"

"Is there anyone in Tianling Village? Maybe they're all goblins, otherwise, how could they be safe and sound!" Sensing that the faces of the three people were not very good-looking, He Xiaohe thought that they were all scared, so he comforted him in a brisk tone: " It’s okay, now the Taoist monks have rebuilt the enchantment, and it’s stronger than before, and the one who escaped, it’s estimated that no other goblins will come out.”

The three of them stayed at the inn in the town, and the shopkeeper complained the most: "I don't know which bastard broke the magic power of the yellow talisman, which made us worry all day long, and we couldn't even do business well." You have to close the door before it gets dark!" The shopkeeper cursed in a low voice while taking the room card for Ming You, turned anger into joy, and smiled at his ugly face: "How many rooms does the guest want?"

"Three rooms." Ming You answered abruptly.

"Two rooms," Xuanyue had already noticed something was wrong with him, and looked at him with strange eyes: "We usually live together, why do we sleep separately today?"

Lin Wenfang noticed that the shopkeeper was looking at the bickering Youyou and Xuanyue with meaningful eyes, he quickly took two room cards, and said embarrassingly: "Two rooms are good, two rooms save money!"
