She got impatient thinking about it, so she turned around and fell asleep. Daguqigu night, how quiet.The wind does not blow, the trees do not move, and the birds do not sing.The snow-filled mountain stands there quietly, under the vast sky. Another day like this passed. Sunday finally arrived. Early in the morning, Gao Niang invited the pig butcher.Around ten o'clock, the smell of cooking meat filled the hut.She was as happy today as if she was marrying her son. She invited one batch after another, and sent them out gratefully.She felt that the children were saved, and that an ordinary, ordinary lunatic should be healed, and it was time to live a normal life. The ghost energy dissipated, and the town came back to life!

Yes, so worth it.A pig, in exchange for such a big harvest, makes people happy and makes people feel so comfortable! When she sent off the last of the meat-eaters, she couldn't help crying. After clearing away the dishes and cups, it will be dark.Winter nights always come early and brazenly, it's only four o'clock, and it's gray that day.The fire-like sunset gradually dissipated. Night has come.Gao Niang soaked the beans with great interest, and washed the tofu bags.After drying, use a rag to beat the layer of fine droplets on the wall. Nan Nan is doing her homework.She had to finish it before she did TV.With her head sullen, she wrote and drew with a pencil without saying a word.

After Gao Niang finished her work, she took out the poker and put it on again. "Four of spades, um, there is something bad, draw another card, it's a hook?! Villain! Villain wants to do something bad, doesn't it..." Her heart was pounding, and she immediately thought of a solution.She jumped off the kang, fetched incense with trembling hands, picked up matches from the cabinet, and walked out in a hurry, kicking the washbasin over in her haste. "Grandma, what are you doing?" "Go to the yard and be quiet. I'll be back in a moment." She opened the door and went out.Nan Nan felt strange, so she chased to the door and opened a gap:

Lady Gao Niang stopped in front of the Bianziduo, which was separated from Crazy Wei's yard.She stuck the incense in the snow, struck several matches to light it, then knelt down, muttering something.There was a strong aroma in the cold air. Watching, watching, Nan Nan couldn't help laughing out loud.Just as she was about to scare grandma, she suddenly saw a black thing on the firewood pile, and she immediately recognized that it was Crazy Wei.She opened her mouth, wanting to tell grandma, but at this moment, Crazy Wei suddenly burst out laughing: "I want to get tofu!" Then, he pushed down a round piece of wood and hit Gao Niang on the head. She fell to the ground without shouting anything.

She stopped breathing quickly.And at the moment before she died, she was still praying deeply in her heart, don't bring this disaster to the children and the town, let her alone! Nan Nan's crying alarmed the neighbors.Under the starlight, people wrapped Gao Niang's body in a straw mat and parked it in the yard. One sunny morning, a carriage with bells carried her to the foot of the mountain, where she lay down and fell asleep.
