Jiang Xixi almost climbed to the foot of the mountain, her clothes were scraped by rocks and branches, and her hair was messy, so that Aunt Yang almost didn't recognize her when she saw her.
"Girl, are you alright?"
She nervously walked over and grabbed Jiang Xixi's arm.
"Don't ask anything, hurry up and pack up the things you need to use and come with me."
Jiang Xixi saw the fear flashing in her eyes, so she added, "I didn't find Brother Yang, but it's really not suitable to stay here for a long time, so I have to take you away."
She lied, but in this case, she really couldn't bear to tell Aunt Yang the truth.
Because when people are terrified, if they encounter the blow of the death of their relatives again, their spirits may collapse in an instant, which Jiang Xixi deeply understands.
So she decided to keep the matter a secret for the time being, and wait until an appropriate time to tell her the truth.
"Is there a family in town that you know and can you borrow for a few nights?"
On the way to Yuquan Town, Jiang Xixi asked.
"Yes, yes, but now that the flood has just receded, they are not well-off, and it is not good to bother for a long time, but we can find someone, and I believe he will be able to take us in temporarily."
"Who?"
"Jing Da good man."
"It's him again."
Jiang Xixi said thoughtfully.
"The girl knows him, too?"
"That's not true," Jiang Xixi hurriedly denied, "But auntie, I lost the coil on the mountain just now, and I can't stay in Yuquan Town, can I ask you to make it convenient for a while, tell that Jing Dashan that I am with you, and ask him to take me in for a few days?"
” "The girl just risked her life to help me go up the mountain to find a husband, how could I not agree to this request?
When we got to the town, I said that you are my sister-in-law, and the good man will definitely give us a place to live. ” They walked as they spoke, and unconsciously came to Yuquan Town, it was now the third watch, and the town was silent, and no one could be seen.
Xiaoyi had already fallen asleep on horseback, and Aunt Yang approved a piece of clothing on him, caressing his thin back lovingly.
Jiang Xixi didn't hesitate to look at a strange building on the side of the road, it was made of tiles one by one, the base was wide and the top was pointed, about four or five people tall, and it looked like a tower.
In front of the "tower", there is a small doorway, which can barely get into a small child, and if you change to an adult, you may not be able to get into it with a cat's waist.
"What is this?"
Jiang Xixi walked around it and found that it was empty, and the next two people who could barely stand there.
"The girl is from other provinces," Aunt Yang also stepped forward, "This is called a kiln, every festival, the people in the town will fill it with firewood, brush a layer of kerosene outside, and then light it, the more the fire burns, it indicates that the days will be more and more prosperous, it is said that the kiln can also drive away evil spirits and avoid ghosts, so the higher it is built, the better."
The big kiln you see was built by Jing Dashanren, and this is the highest kiln in Shili Eight Villages.
This Dragon Boat Festival is coming, and if the girl is still in Yuquan Town, she will be able to see the grand scene of the kiln. ” "I see, I'm really lonely."
Jiang Xixi saw a trace of sadness on Sister-in-law Yang's face, and knew that she must have remembered the scene of watching the kiln with her husband in the past, not only was she stunned, she grabbed the reins and urged, "Let's go, it's cold at night, don't freeze Xiaoyi." ” Aunt Yang nodded, and the two hurried forward, and within a while, they came to the front of a mansion.
The walls of this mansion are high and the area is huge, and at a glance you can see that the owner is either rich or expensive.
Taking advantage of the moonlight, Jiang Xixi saw that there was a huge pagoda in the courtyard, and after experiencing a heart-palpitating escape, the gilded spire of this pagoda and the ever-bright lamp enshrined in it made her heart feel ironed for a while, and felt a lot more comfortable.
Aunt Yang knocked on the door hesitantly, and the servant who opened the door listened to her intention, asked them to wait for a while, and then walked in.
After a while, he came out with two little maids, saying that Master Jing had already fallen asleep, but Miss Jing asked them to settle down first, and then ask her father's opinion tomorrow before making plans.
"Don't worry, the lord will never refuse the requests of the villagers," the two little maids said with a smile while bringing the three of them into the guest room, "Although you can live in peace, we don't know how many homeless people we have to entertain here every year, there are many houses in Jingfu, and there are dust when they are empty, you are here, we are just adding a few more pairs of chopsticks." ” Hearing them say this, Aunt Yang couldn't help shedding a few tears, and kept saying thank you.
Jiang Xixi patted the back of her hand, sent the two little maids away, and then closed the door.
The two carried Xiaoyi to the bed, and then sat on the edge of the bed in a daze.
"Girl, what did you encounter in Qiu Xingshan?"
Aunt Yang seemed to have made up her mind for a long time before she asked this sentence.
"I didn't see it," Jiang Xixi picked his fingers, "I only heard a few childlike laughter, but I could feel that it was hungry, and the whole Qiu Xingshan was not angry at all, as if all those living creatures had been swallowed by it." ” Aunt Yang covered her mouth and let out a sad scream, Jiang Xixi bit her lip, took out the half of the sweat towel and handed it to her, "Look at whether this is Brother Yang's thing......"
She couldn't go on, because as soon as Aunt Yang saw the half of the sweat towel, she took it into her arms, threw herself on the bed and sobbed in a low voice.
Jiang Xixi didn't know how to comfort her, so she simply pushed the door out quietly and gave Aunt Yang a space to be alone.
The moon hangs on the top of the pagoda, looking from afar, like a circle of Buddha light.
Jiang Xixi involuntarily walked in the direction of the pagoda, she walked through the courtyards of all sizes, but just as she was about to approach the pagoda, she was blocked by a high wall, on which there was a bronze gate with a large lock hanging on the door, which clearly indicated to her that visitors were not welcome here.
Jiang Xixi felt a little lost in her heart, she walked around the high wall, and found that there was not even a side door here, so she had to stand outside the high wall and look at the pagoda in a daze.
The moon slowly fell, Jiang Xixi sighed, turned around and was about to leave, but at this moment, there were a few soft moans like a cat's meow in his ears.
Jiang Xixi stood still in the shadow of the high wall, her ears carefully discerning the source of the sound, because of the palpitating experience just now, she was now particularly sensitive to strange sounds.

But the voice was gone, just like the bright moon overhead, which had just sprinkled silver light all over the Jing Mansion, but now it was completely obscured by dark clouds.
