Xixi's life was very difficult. Her mother died when she was born.
The father and aunt of the An family gave An Dawang a new wife, the stepmother Xixi. They all said that the stepmother has the most bitter heart, and Xixi’s stepmother is such a good person!
He treated Xixi as if he were his own child. In the winter, he personally sewed a large cotton-padded jacket for Xixi. The meat and vegetables at home were also eaten by Xixi first. Everyone said that the An family had found a good and virtuous wife.
Over the years, the An family's life has become more and more prosperous. The only flaw is that Xixi's stepmother has never given birth to a child. Seeing that the An family is about to die, Xixi's grandparents even want Xixi to change her name. What is Zhaodi?
Stepmother Xixi didn't agree.
It is only said that having a child is destined by fate and has nothing to do with the child's name.
Later, Xixi's grandparents got a lot of fertility prescriptions and cooked them for Xixi's stepmother, but they didn't see her belly getting bigger. It was not easy for a farmer to marry a wife, and she couldn't divorce her and remarry.
Xixi's grandparents moved out of the old house and lived alone at the back of the village, near Shenling.
He prayed to the mountain gods every day to give the An family a son.
After hearing what Zhao Lichang said, Li Jun felt uncomfortable.
Sure enough, in ancient times, there were no families that did not favor sons over daughters. Why did they have to have sons? Based on Li Jun's understanding of the world, there are many bachelors, and many sons will never be able to marry a wife in their lifetime.
However, this still does not prevent them from crazy about having a son.
Originally, Li Jun thought An Jia was an exception.
It turns out that we are not exempt from vulgarity.
But, is it effective to ask the mountain god for help?
"Where is Xixi's grandma?"
Zhao Lichang cleared his throat and told Li Jun that Xixi's grandma was actually Xixi's mother. After Xixi's mother died, Xixi's family no longer had contact with Xixi's grandma. Her grandma lived next door.
village.
The stepmother of Xixi, whose surname is Wen, came from Qingniu Village to escape famine in Waitouzhou County and had no family.
Grandma Xixi is quite capable. She asked Granny Mi if she could go to the underworld. If there were any strange things in the village, she would usually be invited to see them. If she couldn't see it, she would go to the city to invite other immortal masters.
She is known as Yang Xiangu.
Yang Xiangu was well respected by the surrounding villagers. When she died the year before last, everyone went to pay incense.
"Xiangu Yang?"
Li Jun frowned and muttered.
Zhao Lichang misunderstood, and he hurriedly explained: "Although everyone calls her Fairy Girl, she is much less capable than you. No other fairy master can handle the Wu family's affairs, only you can do it.
You are an immortal master with real abilities. Grandma Xixi can only ask Granny Mi in the countryside. She knows a little about yin and yang. How can she compare to you, the immortal master!"
Zhao Lichang always called Li Jun Immortal Master. He was the only Immortal Master around here anyway, and Li Jun didn't bother to tell everyone his real name.
Li Jun thought for a moment and asked Zhao Lichang to go back first, and he would handle the rest by himself.
Zhao Lichang nodded and left wisely.
"Li Jun, come with me."
The dog led the way, and Li Jun followed behind it. One person and one dog headed towards the back of the mountain. They passed through the woods and walked some way deeper. The environment changed drastically. Strange rocks and trees suddenly increased in number, clouds and mist shrouded the peaks.
steep mountains.
In real terms, this is not the deep part of the Divine Ridge, it is still on the edge of the Divine Ridge.
Normally, villagers generally don't dare to come here unless they are attending a funeral.
Li Jun once heard An Dawang mention it occasionally.
I don’t know when it started. After people from Qingniu Village, including a dozen nearby villages, died, most of their bodies were buried here. There is a cemetery here.
Soon, Gouda took Li Jun to the cemetery.
Numerous graves, new and old graves, silence, barren hills and mountains, eerie.
"Li Jun, look at the dirt on these graves. It looks strange. It looks like it was dug up by something and then covered again." The dog's big nose twitched and sniffed the surrounding dirt. It raised its head with a puzzled look on its face.
"It's very strange. There is the smell of corpses on the ground. The corpse buried in the grave was dug out and eaten by something. It is definitely not a wild animal. A wild beast would not cover it with soil after eating it."
Li Jun's heart skipped a beat.
The grave mound that appeared in sight was covered with soil again, but the difference could still be seen with the naked eye.
Can't the villagers see it?
"The people in the countryside are so stupid. All the corpses of their loved ones were eaten by monsters, and they are still buried here?" Gouda curled his lips.
Li Jun sighed: "Maybe it's because of poverty. The land is precious. The poor have nowhere to bury their bodies, so they can only bury them here. They know they will be eaten, but they pretend not to see it and deceive themselves.
They may even have reached some kind of agreement with the monsters. The monsters let them bury their bodies and offer the corpses to the monsters to eat. At the same time, the monsters protected these villages. Perhaps these monsters are the mountain gods here?"
"hehe."
Gou Da sneered: "Then this mountain god is really worthless. He lives by eating dead bodies."
Li Jun was silent.
Is it really as bad as Gou Da said?
Gou Da slowly walked towards one of the graves. It had been a few years since the tomb had been dug open. Gou Da took a sniff and confirmed, "Yes, Xi Xi is inside."
Li Jun's heart sank, and Gouda continued: "It's alive."
Li Jun said angrily: "Young dog, can you speak properly and don't break your sentences?"
The dog looked disdainfully: "Bah, Li Jun, why don't you talk to me properly? I rarely use me now. Don't you notice that I am different from before?"
"Well, you have grown up and become sensible." Li Jun said with a headache.
Li Jun looked at the grave bag and sighed: "Big dog, let's dig it up!"
Li Jun did not bring a shovel or other tools, and he was too lazy to go back to get it. He simply squatted down and used his true energy to dig up the soil with Gou Da. Soon, he dug it open, revealing a dark coffin.
The lid of the coffin was nailed tightly. Li Jun stood up and kicked off the lid of the coffin with his kick. He saw Xixi lying quietly in the coffin with his eyes closed tightly. He was sleeping on his side, breathing in and out.
To be stable.
Li Jun took a closer look at the coffin. It was tightly sealed and there was no room for ventilation. According to modern scientific theory, Xixi had been breathing carbon dioxide, but she didn't suffocate to death?
She is indeed alive.
Full of vitality and blazing yang energy, Li Jun's true energy gathered in his eyes, and he could still see three yang fires burning brightly on his shoulders and top of his head.
"Xixi, wake up."
Li Jun first observed the surrounding environment, held the thunder talisman in his hand, slowly approached Xi Xi, and slowly input a trace of true energy. After a long time, the little girl finally opened her eyes.
"Big brother? You woke me up."
Xixi yawned, as if she hadn't slept well yet. She frowned and glared at Li Jun angrily. Her eyes were filled with tears and she was about to cry.
She was angry when she woke up. She didn't expect that the little girl was also angry when she woke up. Li Jun was a little speechless.
He could only pat Xixi on the shoulder, coaxing her, and hugging her whole body.
"Your parents are looking for you, I will take you back."
