Strange Tales of the Ghosts

More than a thousand years ago, in the deep mountains, there lived a farmer surnamed Chai. The farmer lived alone in a poor hut and lived a happy life. Because both parents died, he was considered to be living alone. I bought some vegetables, raised a few chickens and ducks, and usually went up the mountain to chop firewood and picked it up to sell at the market, and changed rice and oil to live.

One day, as soon as the sun rose from the east, the farmer pushed open the door of his house, took an axe and a rope and went up the mountain. The optimistic farmer walked all the way, humming an unknown ditty, and the birds in the mountains chirped and chirped when they heard his singing, as if they were singing along with him. Walking deep into the forest, looking at the dense branches, the farmer was about to work when he suddenly heard an unusual cry, like the sound of an injured animal. The farmer put down his hatchet and looked for it. He saw a small snow-white fox crawling among a pile of dead branches that had fallen on the ground. The little fox looked at the farmer with watery eyes, as if asking for help.

"Hey, how pitiful, I'll help you." The farmer is a kind person, and this is known by all the animals in this forest. Even the birds flying in the sky and the rabbits running on the ground have been taken care of by the farmer. .

The farmer held the injured little fox in his arms and found that the little fox's injuries were serious and had to be treated as soon as possible, so he gave up the idea of ​​collecting firewood, took the axe, and carried the fox back home. The little fox got better every day under the care of the farmer, and gradually became alive and kicking. During the day, it went up the mountain with the farmer to chop wood. At night, she slept on the farmer's quilt, and a farmer and a fox started A life that depends on each other.

"Xuehu, don't go there, it's dangerous." Xuehu is the name given to the little fox by the farmer, because the fur on the fox is as white as snow. The fox seemed to understand people's words. When the farmer called it, it stopped its restless steps and ran back to the farmer obediently, shaking its tail.

Days passed, because of poverty, the farmer did not marry, and Xuehu accompanied the farmer for seven years. If this is happiness, I don't know if it is God's jealousy, and bad luck begins to come. An old man surnamed Zhao in the county town heard that there was a treasure hidden under the farmer's house, and he asked the farmer to move out indiscriminately. Hearing the farmer's sigh at night, the little fox felt uncomfortable. There were many things he didn't understand, but he knew that the farmer was the best person in the world for him. All he could do was to climb on the farmer's feet. Make the farmer feel its presence.

"Xuehu, Xuehu, poor little thing, we will have no home from now on." The farmer picked up the little fox and stared at the little fox like his own child. Tomorrow is the last day, thinking about his future In life, the farmer was heartbroken and made a decision. He decided to release the little fox into the forest and let it go to find his relatives. So he took out the only little rice wine at home and fed it to the little fox. After the little fox ate it, he seemed to be drunk and began to sleep soundly. Taking advantage of the late night, the farmer walked quickly into the forest with the sleeping little fox in his arms. He must put the little fox in a safe place, because he saw an ominous sign in the eyes of the old man surnamed Zhao. Where is the broken house that wants the farmer, his eyes are full of greed for the little fox next to the farmer, the farmer thinks that even if he hands over the house, Mr. Zhao will not let him go, so he has to arrange the little fox first. That's right, he was reluctant to let this little guy be caught and skinned by Master Zhao. Thinking of the possible consequences of the little fox, the farmer burst into tears, and his tears fell on the little fox. After placing the little fox, the farmer looked back at the little fox step by step. Said: "Xuehu, go find your family, don't come back."

In this way, the farmer said goodbye to the little fox in tears. When the little fox woke up, he found himself sleeping in the forest and the farmer was gone. The farmer underestimated the little fox. Even if he didn't walk that way, it didn't mean he couldn't smell the farmer's breath left behind. The little fox ran quickly and spent half a day running back to the farmer's house. There, the door was wide open, and the smell of blood wafted through the nostrils.
