There's an old Chinese saying that filial piety comes first, but if these parasitic caves are real, I really don't know how to interpret this old saying.

Perhaps it is a traditional custom, just like in some places, you must receive a bride price when you marry a daughter, and the more you collect, the more you will save face.

I just feel very sad, maybe it was forced by the environment at the time, when everyone was starving to death, filial piety could only bow to reality.

Then there is a saying that raising children to prevent old age and providing for the elderly is sent to the end?

Until now, the Chinese still have such traditional ideas, which is also the reason for the preference for sons?

"Big brother, don't be like this, it was all in the past, and now it's long gone, and now the state resolutely prohibits these, and there are nursing homes in our town. Xiao Min comforted me and said.

"I also know that it has passed, but as soon as I heard this, I felt very uncomfortable, maybe our living conditions are better now, and we can't understand the environment and helplessness at that time. "I thought about it and said.

"This should be a custom and custom at that time, I heard that the origin of this custom at that time an old couple, lost their labor, and did not want to drag down their children, so they quietly went up the mountain, and then a few years later, people found their bones in the cave on the mountain, the old couple was praised by everyone, and then the old people also followed suit, and it became a custom to come and go, if you are old, you can't move, and you are still dragging down your children and grandchildren, you will be said by the villagers, then over time, the custom of sending the death cave has become。 Xiao Min continued.

My face twitched slightly, if this is the case, then it makes sense, it is the filial piety of the father and the son, it is the initiative of the elderly, but it has evolved into the initiative of young people, which is a bit scary, I think there must be old people who are unwilling to go, but they are forced by the pressure of public opinion from the outside world, so they have to go.

"By the way, what does it have to do with running the mountain and following the death cave?" I asked.

"The origin of this mountain is caused by a legend, legend has it that there was a rich man before, because he was afraid that his descendants would be affected by this custom, so he secretly hid a lot of gold and silver treasures, these things are not known to future generations, and then sure enough, in his old age, the descendants really sent him to the mountain to the death cave, the reason is not to drag down the descendants, but to say that the rules can not be broken, otherwise the face can not be said, and will be pointed at, nonsense, all for his good, but in fact, by the conspiracy of several of his daughters-in-law, the old man was sent up the mountain, and the family property was divided by several sons。 Xiao Min said: "Then the old rich man saw everything clearly, and happened to meet a woodcutter who went up the mountain to chop wood, gave the woodcutter a lot of money, and let the woodcutter go down the mountain and announced to the outside world that he Liu million had hidden countless gold and silver treasures on this Dawu Mountain, and the total amount exceeded a hundred times that left to his son and daughter-in-law. ”

"So to run the mountain is to go to the mountain to find this treasure!" I was dumbfounded.

Xiao Min nodded and said, " But it seems that it is just a legend, because for thousands of years, no one has found this batch of treasures, the village people have organized many times to run the mountain, and now the real intention of running the mountain is nothing more than to form a team into the mountain, to find some ancient parasitic caves, there may be some of those old people's belongings, which were not very valuable at the time, but now they are valuable, such as some ancient copper coins, such as some utensils for things, and some swords or something, in addition, you can also hunt by the way, collect some medicinal materials, and when you come back, the things are sold for money, and everyone will divide them。 ”

It dawned on me that this was running a mountain, so it seemed that once I ran down the mountain, I actually couldn't make much money.

Because these death caves are poor death caves to put it bluntly, there are basically nothing valuable in them, and occasionally you can exchange one or two pieces for some money.

I thought about it, if it is to run the mountain, then forget it, don't Luo carpenter to run, after all, it is hard and not profitable, but if you go to the treasure place of this rich man, you can use it as an expedition to help them.

After all, I learned a lot of tomb robbery skills from my grandfather, although I am not very proficient, but I should be able to use it when I run the mountain.

It's just that the condition is that my body is better.

I turned my head to look at the duck blood in the bowl, although it was a little disgusting, but I still wanted to eat it, after all, I needed it, not to mention that I had drunk Yuelan's blood before, and I had also sucked the blood of werewolves, which was also human blood.

Thinking about it, I said, "Let's feed a few more bites, thanks." ”

"Good. Xiao Min smiled and fed me with a spoon.

Then the next day, my body slowly began to react, although it was not very sensitive, but at least my fingers could move, and my left foot also had a feeling, but I couldn't get up yet, and the bones in my body were broken, at least I had to wait for healing to support my body.

On the third day, the arm dared to bend.

I'm already very happy with the speed of recovery, and I'm sure I'll be able to get out of bed in about a week.

Then Carpenter Luo took people into the mountain on the fourth day, and there were eight people in the group, only one of Carpenter Luo had a shotgun, but the others had weapons such as firewood knives.

Luo Carpenter They set off early in the morning, saying that they would come back within three days, and then after they came back, they sent Luo Xiaomin to attend classes at school and board at the school.

Fortunately, on the day that Carpenter Luo and the others entered the mountain, I lifted the quilt and asked Xiao Min to help me get out of bed, and then Carpenter Luo gave me a pair of crutches in advance.

He thinks that the coffin before was useless, and this crutch is definitely needed, and it may be with me for the rest of my life.

But I think it's just going to be a bit of a sudden, because I feel like I'm not feeling feeling below the knee in my right foot, and everything else is recovering pretty well.

I held the cane with both hands, and then walked out of the room for the first time, and when I arrived at the hall, the hall was really big, a pile of wood, and some cabinets and stools that had just been made, I have to say, the craftsmanship of Carpenter Luo was really good.

Xiao Min followed by my side, and was shocked by the speed of my recovery, and Dr. Luo's conclusion that she knew, saying that even if I recovered, I must be disabled and paralyzed on the bed, but at this moment I actually walked up with crutches in both hands.

Then I took a deep breath and tried to slow my luck, those recovered muscles and veins have been cleared at the moment, and the physique of practicing martial arts is faster than others, not to mention that I am still a zombie.

After the pores of the whole body are opened, the footwork of the Great Wind Song is expanded, the right foot does not feel anything, but the left foot can be used, and the yin qi on the sole of the foot comes out, and there is a rebound force immediately, and when the big acupuncture points of the whole body are opened, the air goes in and out, and the whole body begins to flutter.

I secretly rejoiced in my heart, although the Five Elements Elements and Tai Chi Yin Yang Fish didn't know where they went, I still remembered the Great Wind Song I had learned, and I became more proficient.

What kind of bed am I still lying in, with my current skills, let them go for a long time first, and then I will chase them, and I will definitely be able to catch up.

"Xiaomin, you go buy pig blood, cook pig blood for me at noon. I turned to Min and said.

"Okay, so are you going to be at home alone?"

"Why not, I'll just sit here, you go and come back quickly. I laughed.

"Okay. So she took out five dollars out of the money her father had left for her, and went down the mountain.

Her family lives relatively high, the street is below, and it takes fifteen minutes to walk, which is very inconvenient anyway.

After Xiao Min left, I used the tip of my cane to write a few words on the ground, her house is dirt, I wrote: Xiao Min, I went up to Dawu Mountain to chase your father and them, you don't have to worry about me, we will come back in three days, you are waiting for us at home alone.
