Lao Siyan, located in a small village ten miles away from Hongfenglin Town, the population is not large, there are only about 20 households, but it has a history of nearly 600 years, it is said that this village has been formed during the Ming Dynasty, but at that time there were only two families, one was to open the corpse inn, and the other was to strike iron.

Later, after the changes of the times, a small village with more than 20 households was gradually formed by two households, and this Lao Siyan is a place where people from the south to the north must pass through, and there are all kinds of people from all walks of life gathered here all year round, so Lao Siyan also had that glorious history.

It's a pity that with the progress of reform and opening up, Xiangxi has long been out of the business of chasing corpses, and the people who strike iron have also returned to the countryside early.

However, due to the profound historical background and other reasons, the corpse inn has been passed down from generation to generation, although there has been no corpse chaser to stay overnight for many years, but there are still all kinds of people in Xiangxi to patronize, so there will occasionally be a few orders.

Fu Ji, a sixty-five-year-old man, has taken over this corpse inn since he was seventeen years old, and it has been nearly fifty years since he was seventeen years old, probably because of his unfortunate career, he has never married a wife or given birth to children, so he has been lonely and sticks to this corpse inn, and has spent countless stormy days.

In that era of war and chaos, he accompanied this inn to escape the invasion of Japanese devils and the harassment of bandits in Wulong Mountain, and experienced many hardships and dangers in his life, but he was still so strong with this inn and stood in the old Siyan's stockade.

But then the reform and opening up, the corpse chaser disappeared, Xiangxi Zhu Youke declined, and the old man who opened the inn was also unemployed.

In the evening of this day, Fu Ji lit a white lantern at the door of the inn as usual.

He has been doing this for more than 50 years, and as long as he lives, he will still light a white lantern at the door of the inn every evening to show the way for the corpse chasers who come and go from north to south in the middle of the night.

The knock on the door suddenly sounded in the evening night.

Fu Ji gently put down the teacup in his hand and listened intently.

"Is anyone there?" Outside the door, a childish child's voice called loudly.

Fu Ji heard it clearly this time, there was indeed a knock on the door!

It's been so quiet for so long that I can't imagine that someone will come to his inn tonight! Fu Ji thought that no one would come to his inn for the rest of his life.

"Is anyone there, please?" The call outside the door rang out again.

Fu Jiliso stood up from his stool and replied loudly in his old, loud voice: "Well, here it is. ”

After saying that, Maji took a step, walked to the main hall of the inn in good spirits, quickly opened the mottled wooden door, and looked at it.

There were five children standing in front of the door, and four of them were only about eight or nine years old, with childish faces.

Fu Ji couldn't help but be a little disappointed when he saw this, he thought that there were still people in this world who remembered his corpse inn, but it was a pity that the people who came to visit this evening were actually a few milky children.

I guess they didn't stay overnight, but the little ones in the village were playing pranks.

At the moment, he restrained his smile, and said with a gloomy face: "This is not the place for you to come, hurry up and go home." ”

With that, he stretched out his hand and pulled the wooden door hard, ready to turn the children away.

Who knew that at the moment when the door was closed, suddenly a little girl in red stretched out her hand to support the wooden door that was about to close, and suddenly a strong force struck, shaking Fu Ji almost unsteadily.

"What do you want to do?" Fu Ji looked at the little girl in red in front of him with a little anger.

It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, it's shocking to see it.

I was observing the little hairy children just now, but I ignored the slightly older little girl in red.

But now when I look at it, I suddenly feel terrified.

The little girl in front of her was dressed in red and tattered, her long black hair was casually draped over her shoulders, and her face was frighteningly white, especially her eyes, and she was as silent as a pool of stagnant water.

But the most terrifying thing is that this little girl in red is not only as powerful as an ox, but also exudes a compelling cold aura all over her body.

"You...... Are you a yin person? Fu Ji asked a little nervously.

"Grandpa, she's not a yin person, don't get me wrong, she's just invaded by the cold air." The other little girl fluttered with big eyes and innocently justified.

"Oh, no wonder she has a cold aura on her body, but there is a trace of yang sharpness, which is essentially different from the yin person." Fu Ji seems to understand and does not understand to himself.

"Hey, old man, how can you see the cold aura on her body, haven't you opened the eye of heaven?" A skinny boy asked, confused.

As soon as Fu Ji heard the thin child in front of him talk about Tianyan, he couldn't help but look at these children carefully.

At the same time, he was shocked and conjectured in his heart: "Where did these children come from, I thought they were people from the village, but now I look closely, and my eyes are very raw, not to mention that the children in the village can't understand the ways of Tianyan."

At the moment, he pretended to be calm and said: "I don't know what Tianyan is, I just feel that there is a yin qi on her body, maybe I'm older and have more knowledge than you, so it's not surprising that I can see it, right?" ”

"By the way, why did you come to me at night, an old man?"

"Grandpa, is this the corpse inn?" The little girl from earlier continued to ask.

"Are you here to stay overnight?" Fu Ji asked curiously with wide eyes.

"Yes, grandpa, we hurried to Chenzhou City, passing by here, seeing that it was getting late, we came to stay." As she spoke, the little girl took out an antique copper coin from her pocket and handed it to Fu Ji.

Judging from the texture of this copper coin, it should belong to the product of the Song Dynasty, and this little girl who handed the copper coin is naturally our sister Yubing.

It turned out that after we had been on the road for a day, we finally found Lao Siyan in the evening, and after entering the village, the sharp-eyed Yu Bing saw this house with white lanterns at a glance.

At that moment, he said in an unwavering tone: "Look, that house with white lanterns is a corpse inn. ”
