A group of officials were scared away by the ghost cry, and in the tea shop, a pair of eyes were focused on the ghost cry.

"So......" Wang Sanniang looked solemn: "Who are you?"

"I told you, I'm a ghost crying. Ghost Cry slapped the knife: "A knife man with a bit of curiosity." ”

"Swordsman, I'm afraid it's more than that, but it's okay...... Wang Sanniang looked at the ghost and cried, and asked: "You really want to know these things, once you know, there will be no way back." ”

The ghost cried and bowed slightly, Wang Sanniang patted his little head without asking, and said, "Let's send him out of the city first, and then talk as we go." ”

"Okay, but wait for me. ”

Ghost Cry brought the horse from the inn, and Wang Sanniang really waited.

The guests in the tea shop noticed that Wang Sanniang really wanted to go with the ghost crying, and they all said worriedly: "Sanniang ......"

"Peace of mind. Wang Sanniang smiled: "I'll go back when I go." ”

didn't ask, was put on the back of the horse, the ghost cried and led the horse, and walked side by side with Wang Sanniang. When passers-by saw them, they gave way and avoided them as if they had seen a plague god.

At the gate of the city, there was a group of people guarding with weapons, and when they saw the ghost crying and Wang Sanniang, they looked a little uneasy.

"Get out of the way!" Wang Sanniang said lightly.

They looked at it without asking, with greed in their expressions, and they were afraid to cry with Wang Sanniang and the ghost, watching Wang Sanniang and the ghost step closer and closer, helplessly let go, and watched them leave.

"Boss, just let them go?"

"Otherwise, what do you want!" said the man in the group with an angry face, "The monsters of the dog day will be wiped out sooner or later!"

......

White snow with no end in sight.

The three of them and one horse in the middle of the mountains are so small and inconspicuous, like a small black dot that moves slowly.

The snow was deep, but the big black horse walked lightly and looked very relaxed. Sitting on horseback, I don't ask if I was a little scared at first, but when I got used to it, I felt novel, and I looked left and right, and the scenery on horseback was very different from that on the ground.

The cold wind blew and it was cold.

Despite wearing a lot, he couldn't help but shrink his neck and bury his face in the horse's neck to avoid the cold wind like a knife.

"Your horse is not ordinary. ”

Ahead, Ghost Cry and Wang Sanniang walked side by side.

The two are tall and burly, with a big hat and a long knife at their waist, and they are a majestic samurai swordsman. A bewitching figure, wearing a snow-white fox fur, obviously wearing a very thick one, but that touch of snow-white could not be hidden, almost jumped out, but his expression and demeanor were very dignified, just like a hall lady.

Coupled with the little monk on horseback, the combination of these three people is very strange, but there is a strange harmony.

The bell on the handle of the knife swayed, and the crisp chime echoed through the valley.

Listening to Wang Sanniang's words, the corners of his mouth under the hat curled slightly, and a deep voice came out: "Sanniang is not ordinary!"

"Something is there. Wang Sanniang covered her mouth and smiled, showing her ladylike demeanor: "She is just a weak woman." ”

"Weak women are not so imposing. The ghost cried and shook his head: "But compared to Sanniang's identity, I am more curious about what happened in the county." ”

"What's the matter?" Wang Sanniang shook her head: "What else can happen, it's nothing more than that monsters occupy the yamen, and the people have become flesh and blood......

Last year, it was freezing cold, so that this year's spring came exceptionally late.

However, spring passed in a hurry, summer was drought and heavy rain, and unfortunate things happened one after another, and in winter, natural grain production decreased, and the people and monsters grabbed food.

Winter came again, it came so early, the snow covered the mountains, and the convoy that pooled money to buy food was delayed, so there was a famine in the county.

If nothing else, many people will die in the county this winter.

Or starve to death, or freeze to death, or die of disease, or be killed by others. It will not stop until enough people have died, and no one knows how many people will be left in the county town after this winter.

Because the corpse is also a hazard, and if you die in the end, you may make trouble to the point where no one collects the corpse, so as to ......

In such a remote place, it is not strange that even if you die.

However, none of this happened, because, there came a youkai.

This monster said, I can feed the people of the whole county.

No one believed it, and the county commander organized the officials to kill this monster.

The yokai is gone, and no one can find it.

On the second day, the county commander's father couldn't stand the cold and fell ill, and he was dying.

The monster reappeared, and he said, "I can save your father, but it has a price."

Filial piety comes first, the county commander is not a good official, but a filial son, he said: "No matter what the price, I can accept it, but I must cure my father." ”

The monster said, "Ruzi." ”

As a result, the son of the county commander became a prime of life, and the old father also became a prime of life, and at the same time, the county commander's family had more than 100 catties of meat to eat.

Soon, word spread throughout the city.

The prefectural magistrate and the father of the county town entertained the yokai, and the yokai said, "I can fill the stomachs of the people of the whole county." ”

This time, many people believed it, but there were also many people who were afraid.

The monster told them that whoever gave a boy or girl under the age of 18 would give him 100 catties of meat. As long as he sends a boy or girl under the age of 12, he can send 200 catties of meat.

Moreover, he also assured that the children sent would not be worried about their lives, but they would become in the prime of life and have a much less lifespan.

However, on the other hand, this is a good thing, because children are prone to die young, and become the prime of life, and their resistance to the cold is naturally much stronger.

And men and women in the prime of life can still do a lot of work, which is very important for a family.

The whole county is crazy.

Suddenly, there were more than half fewer children in the county.

Some felt a chill in their hearts, and they hurried out of the county with their children, ready to leave this terrible place.

But soon, they disappeared without a trace, including the children.

All this turmoil took place in three days.

Then, everything in the whole county returned to its former order, and the people even lived a better life than before.

The whole county is full of life.

After Wang Sanniang finished speaking, she looked at the ghost crying, and the ghost crying listened carefully, her face was expressionless, obviously not frightened.

And the little monk sitting on horseback was scared enough, lying on the horse's back and shivering.

He also longs to grow up, but when he hears this story, he has a creepy feeling.

"Master!" the little monk suddenly shouted, "Master, has he become younger?"

Wang Sanniang stopped, turned around, looked at the expectant gaze, slowly shook her head, and turned her head away.

He pursed his lips without asking, and sure enough, he knew that the master would naturally not do such a thing, and there were no old people in the county, so the master ......

He hugged the horse's neck hard, tears wetting the horse's mane.

The big black horse was very unhappy, and a little kid hugged his neck and wept, but at this moment, he also stood quietly and did not move.
