The Ninefold Secret Realm Chapter 21 The Wooden House
The path leads straight to the primeval forest, we follow the addict from afar, and slowly have stepped into the range of the primeval forest, the road of this forest is the nearby mountain people walked out, we are not particularly difficult to walk, the mountain road is crooked, we hide in the bushes and slowly follow the addict, the scenery along the way is also very beautiful, I want to stop and watch, but Liu Laohan walked all the way, I followed all the way, he did not have any interest in these jingse, I was also afraid to follow. Pen Γ fun Γ Pavilion www. ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ο½ γ info was lost, so I worked hard to move forward.
We had already begun to enter the primeval forest, the road was getting more and more difficult to walk, and there were more and more weeds, and there were almost no people here, so we did not dare to speak, and followed silently and secretly until four o'clock in the afternoon, when the addict found a place to stop.
I thought that with such a body as an addict, he might not be able to get up for a long time after resting, and I was already too tired to come all the way, but what I didn't expect was that the addict rested for less than fifteen minutes, and immediately stood up and hurried. As soon as I saw it, it was all green, and I had no choice but to keep up, and we fought through all the obstacles until the sun was about to set.
The more I walked, the more I felt that something was wrong, it was already very deep into the jungle, and the mountain road was basically submerged in the grass, I hurriedly grabbed Liu Laohan in front of me and said anxiously, it is not appropriate for us to walk like this, how can we keep rushing into the primeval forest like this, it is almost dark, are we recruiting evil spirits, this addict is not normal for people or ghosts, we should go back.
Liu Laohan turned his head to look at me and said, "You're not right, we should go further." People like addicts would go into the primeval jungle like this, and there must be a goal. β
Liu Laohan's expression was very serious, but my heart became more and more panicked, looking back, the road we came to was long gone, there were trees and weeds everywhere, and when it got dark, we might really get lost in this forest.
Liu Laohan shook his head and said, "The last time I came, I left, and it took more than 20 days to go deep into the primeval jungle, and the time is not the right thing at all, we try to follow this addict, maybe he really knows something." β
Now I can't go to the village and can't find a store, I can't suppress my dissatisfaction, but I can only follow Liu Laohan in the jungle all the way, about half an hour away, the sky has gradually darkened, my heart has begun to go crazy, but then I suddenly found that in the middle of the grass, there is actually a simple wooden house made of thatch.
It is not surprising that there are such small cabins in the mountains, it is estimated that the people who collect medicine or cut wood in the mountains rest here, and if there is one here, then there should be several more places up the road. Unexpectedly, the addict jumped into the wooden house in three steps.
I can't help but wonder in my heart, even if this addict is a drug addict, no matter how bad he is, he shouldn't come to such a place. Could it be that he secretly planted poppies in the mountains, I looked at the primeval forest in the inner part, and his target should be in the inner area, this is just the place where he sleeps tonight.
Liu Laohan and I quietly approached the wooden house, but found that the wooden house in the grass had an obvious feature, the small ventilation window of the wooden house actually nailed a number of horizontal and vertical wooden strips as a fix, like a wooden security net. And looking at the color of the wooden strips, it seems that the nails were added later, not the original ones of this wooden house.
I thought to myself, a wooden house in the primeval forest, and in this geographical location, and not very deep into the hinterland of the primeval forest, if you really want to prevent, it should be to prevent mosquitoes and snakes a little more, this only vent nailed with a wooden anti-theft net, obviously mosquitoes and snakes and insects can not play any role, as for the prevention of large beasts, but this season, there should be no beasts in this vicinity, beasts generally have their own activity area, unless it is a lack of food in winter and hunger, generally will not run to such a place close to humansγ
What is it that an addict nails a wooden anti-theft net?
At this time, it had been half an hour since the hermit gentleman entered the wooden house, and it was already dark at this time, Liu Laohan snuffed out the cigarette in his hand and said, "Let's go to the window now to peek at what he is doing inside, wait for me to let you rush, you can rush in with me, and then you subdue him, and I will force you to ask about the rest." β
Looking through the gap in the wooden security net in the window of the wooden house, there was already a fire burning in the middle of the wooden house, and under the light of the fire, I saw that there was nothing in the wooden house, only a broken wooden bed, on which the addict was lying and was taking out a bottle from under the bed.
He poured some powder out of the bottle, then wrapped the powder into a cigarette, lit it, put it in his mouth and smoked, and lay on the bed to swallow the smoke, which was very pleasant.
I really smiled bitterly at this time, we followed this ordinary addict to the primeval forest, and then hid out the window to watch him smoke powder.
Unexpectedly, Liu Laohan didn't think that he had made anything wrong until now, but said to me, "We rush in now, and when the time comes, you will be responsible for catching him, and I will be responsible for snatching the bottle in his hand." β
I shook my head helplessly and broke into the door with Liu Laohan.
Before the addict who was lying on the bed and swallowing the clouds and spitting out the fog could react, he was pushed down by me and lay on the ground, Liu Laohan snatched the white powder bottle in his hand, and then said to him, "You tell me about the footprints, if you are not honest, I will throw this bottle into the fire and burn it now." β
Faced with the two of us who suddenly broke into the door, the addict was startled by us, he looked at the bottle that was snatched and was very excited and said, "This bottle can't be burned, what do you want to know? I'll definitely tell you, footprints, yes? Footprints are a fart, give me back the bottle, I'll tell you right away." β
Suddenly, the addict's face changed, and he muttered, "Footprints, fuck," he turned his head to look at the door we had entered, and when he saw that the door was open, he immediately shouted frantically, "Close the door, hurry, close it." β
The addict yelled at the bottle and at the door, and even I wondered if he was hallucinating in the powder, and his madness was abnormal, much like a beast that knew it was going to be killed.
Seeing the look of the addict, Liu Laohan's face also changed, he didn't expect his little trick to cause the addict to react so much, he looked out of the door, it was still dark outside, he looked at the addict's face again, and the addict shouted to him, "Go and close the door, close the door, you are looking for death." β
Hearing this, Liu Laohan seemed to believe something, and he immediately went over and slammed the door shut.
At the moment when the door closed, the addict's body finally relaxed and collapsed, and then he quickly realized that I was riding on his back, and he gave me a blank look and said, "Hurry up and get out of the way for Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu saved the lives of both of you today." β
After many psychological warfare verbal battles, the addict turned defeat into victory, and the three of us reached a reconciliation and sat by the fire together to drink tea and roast the fire.
After the hot and spicy tea, Liu Laohan shivered with comfort, and began to ask, "Tell me what those footprints are?"
