Chapter 213: Exploring the Mountains (1)
Rushing out of the house, the whole village was in a frenzy. The cries of horror were incessant, and under the shadow of the huge mountain, the glare of the silver light.
"Spirit girl, spirit girl!"
The old man ran from a long distance, and when he saw us leaving the house, he hurriedly said, "The demon snake on the mountain has broken into the village, and the hunters and strong men of the village are in front of it." Hurry up and run away with me, my car is just outside the village!"
After he finished speaking, he wanted to pull us away, but Lingqian's face changed, and he asked, "Is it the silver snake that broke into the village?"
"yes, it's where the front glows...... Hey, why are you going? Don't join in the fun, hey......"
Before he could finish speaking, a few of us had already raised our feet and ran wildly towards the place where the silver light flashed.
"According to the ancient books I have read, the snake in the moon is a fairy contaminated with the breath of the fairy family, and it generally does not attack humans. Taibai Mountain is a spiritual mountain, and it does not need to devour humans to nourish its body when it hides in it. If it weren't for the special circumstances, it would certainly not attack the village. ”
Lingqian shouted as she ran.
Running to the front of the crowd, I saw a snake body hovering and twisting under the silver light from a relatively long distance! The body more than twenty meters long was writhing back and forth on the ground, the scales of the whole body were shining, and the blood-red eyes looked mysterious.
Confiding letters, even though most of his body was hunched on the ground, his upright body was still a large block above the surrounding houses, and the crowd looked like a low hare in front of him.
A few hunters and strong men with pitchforks and sickles were in the forefront, and the village chief and several village cadres were also there, and their faces were not good-looking. It's almost the nineties and you still encounter this kind of bizarre and strange thing, who doesn't panic?
The situation was chaotic and no one noticed us. In the middle of the month, the snake swam back and forth a few times, opened its mouth and let out a "hiss......" sound, and confronted the crowd for several minutes, and the villagers did not dare to rush forward.
Then the moon snake slowly retreated, and finally swam into the mountain, where the silver light flickered in the black forest and disappeared after a moment.
Seeing the snake disappear in the middle of the moon, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and the village chief beckoned a few people to set up a fence on the way into the mountain, and the rest of the people sat on the ground and breathed a sigh of relief.
A few of us retreated, and Lingqian said with a solemn expression: "I think let's take advantage of the night to enter the mountain once." ”
"Into the mountains? Do you want to catch the moon snake at night? It's too difficult and too dangerous. ”
The fat man immediately objected.
"The villagers were taken aback tonight, and they will definitely do something, and maybe they will cause us trouble when the time comes. The sooner and the better!"
Lingqian shook her head and said.
The two of them immediately argued, I stood in the middle, thought for a while, and said: "I am not in favor of acting tonight, as the old saying goes, if you don't fight an unprepared battle, you may fall into danger if you rush into the mountains." It's true that the villagers will definitely do something after this time, but that's exactly what I expected. When the villagers find that they can't deal with the snake in the moon on their own, it is the best time for a few of us to come forward. ”
Lingqian frowned, a little dissatisfied, but finally nodded, turned and walked towards the room.
"Why is this girl always so impulsive like last time?"
The fat man smoked a cigarette and muttered.
"I think she must have something to tell us, let's see if there's a chance to get out of her mouth about the Ling family. Let's go, go back......"
As we guessed, when the old party came the next day, he said that the village committees of several villages had discussed it and decided to organize people to go into the mountains to search at noon that day, and the number of people was expanded from the previous 60 to about 100 people, and they searched the mountains in a mighty way.
The village that used to be quiet is no longer peaceful. The line of Taibai Mountain was blocked, and more than 100 villagers entered the mountain, and a few of us stood in front of the door waiting for news. Drinking tea, I watched the figures running by from time to time at the foot of the mountain.
In fact, I also have my own considerations, the villagers into the mountains do have the possibility of scaring the snakes, but on the other hand, we have not searched for the snake in the moon after all, these villagers may help us find some traces of the snake in the moon, it is better than us going into the mountain like headless flies to look for it.
Around the end of the evening, the old side brought news.
"They searched the mountains for an afternoon, did they find anything?"
The fat man asked with a match.
"Hehe, don't say it, there's really a discovery!"
The old man replied with a grin.
A few of us immediately became nervous, and the fat man tentatively asked, "Is there really one?"
"Not yet, but I heard that they found a big hole on the south side of the mountain, a big hole that Orion had never seen before, it must be seven or eight meters high, and I don't know when it was opened. Now I am gathering people to rush there, but I don't dare to go in yet, for fear that it will be the den of the serpent. ”
I heard this, thought about it for a while, and said, "Old Fang, we also want to go and see, can you arrange it?"
"Oh, that's not good, it's too dangerous up there, if it's really the snake's nest that wakes up the snake, something will definitely happen." You still wait at the bottom of the mountain in peace, and wait for the hunters to kill the snake, and then watch the excitement. ”
The old man hurriedly shook his head and said.
"We may be able to help, Lao Fang, you take us to the village chief, and we will talk to him personally. ”
It's time for a showdown, the old man glanced at us a few times, as if he had read something, scratched his head and said, "Okay, you guys go with me." ”
There were a lot of people crowded in the village committee, and the old man took us in with great effort, and we were received by the village chief, a little old man, smoking a cigarette with a sad face.
"This is the head of our village. Village chief, these are the people from the city I brought around, hehe. They want to see that big hole, they want to go up the mountain with us, I don't know if it's okay?"
"No, how can this be? It's a mess up there right now, don't add to the blockage. ”
The old man hurriedly refused.
The old man looked at us with an embarrassed face, and the fat man walked over at this moment and said with a smile: "Old village chief, the big snake you have to deal with is not easy to deal with, it must be more than twenty meters long, and it is not an ordinary big snake." ”
The old village chief was stunned for a moment, and when he heard that the fat man's tone was a little different, he looked at us strangely and asked, "What are you doing?"
The fat man exchanged glances with me, and then said in a showdown: "We are out to catch this kind of monster to make a fortune, this snake you encountered is not simple, listen to me, let us deal with it, otherwise I am afraid that we will die." ”
"What do you mean by catching monsters?"
"Do you think, there are no snakes about 20 meters long in the world, even if they are loaded in trucks, there will be more than a dozen, ordinary people can deal with them? When the time comes, if someone dies, I'm afraid you will have to bear the responsibility in the end. However, we are experts in this kind of thing and can help you out. ”
The fat man said with a smile.
The old village chief lowered his head and thought about it, the atmosphere was a little tense, and the fat man leaned over and whispered again: "When the time comes, get that snake down and sell it for money, and we won't treat you badly." How can I make tens of thousands of dollars......"
These words became a booster, no one in the countryside had ever seen so much money at that time, and when he heard tens of thousands of yuan, the old village chief's eyes lit up. He looked up at the fat man and said, "That thing is not easy to deal with, but if you insist on going, I can't stop it." After a while, I will ask Xiao Fang to take you up the mountain, and someone on the mountain will answer you. ”
"That's a good feeling, thank you to the village chief. However, it is better not to expose this kind of thing to make a fortune, otherwise it will attract people with ulterior motives, and no one will be able to make money at that time, not to mention, and the reputation of the village will be ruined. It is said that there are monsters near this village, who will come to give them a way to make a fortune in the future, right?"
The fat man knocked on the side and said a few words, and the old village chief nodded hurriedly, and personally stood up to send us out.
The old man took us up the mountain, and after entering the mountain, the whole road up the mountain was full of hunters.
After walking for about an hour, it was getting dark, and we walked to the mouth of the cave under the light of torches. A few people standing at the entrance of the cave stepped forward and looked at us, and the old man hurriedly said, "It was the village chief who asked me to bring it up, the person who helped." ”
The other party nodded and led us to the entrance of the cave, and I stood at the entrance of the cave, my face suddenly changed slightly, and the breath blowing out of the cave was very unusual. “
