From the words, we can see that the middle-aged aunt doesn't want us to see the old man, but under Liu Laohan's repeated requests, she can't help it. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info She talked about her father in a very angry tone, and the verbosity was endless, a woman like her who was so strong, had money, but she was divorced, and there was a person in the family who didn't know her brain, she should feel more ashamed.

My aunt led us to the second floor of the house, in front of a closed wooden door, she knocked on the door and shouted, "Old man, how many people want to come and see you?"

We pushed the door open and entered, only to see that the room was dark inside, and it was daylight, because the windows were covered by wooden security nets, and the outside light could hardly penetrate.

There was an old man in the middle of the room, with his back to us, sitting in a rocking chair and shaking, looking very leisurely, he was very thin, but the way he looked at us showed that he was in a good mental state, and he was not as unclear as the middle-aged aunt said. Women just owe money, I thought to myself.

But the addict nagged beside me, "Is my daughter-in-law going to provoke him too?

I gave the addict a blank look and whispered to him, "Those footprints are obviously not a good thing, why do you always think she is your daughter-in-law!"

The addict said, "You think it's not a good thing, but let me ask you, in the past three years, it wasn't she who gave me white powder, did you give it to me! You know how much money I have earned in the past three years when I didn't smoke it myself? Even if the footprints are ghosts, I still like her." ”

I was thundered by the logic of an addict again, but I can understand his feelings, if there is someone who can give me so much, even if he is a monster, I am willing to be close to him.

When Liu Laohan heard the conversation between me and the addict, he turned his head to look at us, but he didn't speak, and turned his head to look a little thoughtful.

Liu Laohan came to the old man and said, "Our brothers want to go into the mountains to poach, can your old man show us the way, or you can take us in directly, and we will pay you?"

As he spoke, Liu Laohan handed the old man a sketch of the mountains and rivers nearby, then pointed to one of the places and said, "We want to enter here." ”

The old man looked at us and said, "If you don't hit, you can't go into that mountain to hunt, I won't take you there, and you don't want to go yourself." ”

This is a middle-aged aunt who glanced at the old man and said, "Don't keep saying that kind of frustrating words, people want to go in hunting, and people want to get rich." It's like you, forget it if you don't contribute, and keep talking. ”

I thought to myself that this middle-aged aunt should be anxious to make money, and I felt that the old man ate her and used her at an old age, and also hindered her from getting rich, and she didn't want people to go into the mountains to hunt. As long as people don't dare to go into the mountains to hunt, she won't be able to receive the goods.

Liu Laohan waved his hand, motioned to his aunt not to speak, and asked the old man, "Why can't you go into the mountains, weren't you also a hunter before? Why were you able to go in and hunt in the past, but now you can't? And aren't there many people poaching in the vicinity? Your daughter is in the business of wholesale prey?"

The old man shook his head and said, "It's not that you can't enter the whole mountain, but that you can't enter the place you want to go deep." ”

Liu Laohan's face sank, and he asked, "What's special in there?"

The old man sighed and said, "That place used to be the best place for hunting, because it was deep enough into the mountains, and there were many rare animals and plants in it, but 10 years ago that place seemed to have changed something, there were some unclean things, and you would see very strange figures at night." ”

I took a look at the addict, and I didn't know if what the addict said about not being able to go out at night, disappearing when he went out, and telling the old man that there would be ghosts at night, whether it was the same thing.

The addict couldn't help but interject, "Old man, let me ask you something, you tell me honestly, have any unknown people given you a lot of benefits over the years, such as very valuable things?"

The old man glanced at the addict, shook his head and said, "I'm old and useless, so if anyone gives me benefits, just don't make trouble for me." ”

After speaking, the old man glanced at the aunt, and the aunt was very embarrassed by the old man.

We wanted to ask a little more clearly, but at this point, the old man didn't seem to have any more useful information to reveal to us.

As we left the old man's house, I muttered, "Why did the old man nail his windows so hard when he saw something unclean in the depths of the mountain?"

Liu Laohan whispered to me, "The old man should know something else, but he didn't dare to say it, because the middle-aged aunt glared at him a few times, you didn't notice, but I saw it." ”

I felt a chill in my heart.

We sat in the yard of the aunt for a while, and talked about some other messy things, but after waiting for a long time, the boatman had not yet come, so Liu Laohan asked the aunt, "This boatman is too procrastinating, we have something to do urgently, if he doesn't come, can he call another boatman to do our work." ”

The aunt shook her head and said, "A few big brothers, the two brothers in our whole village know how to walk the underground river, and the river is still clearly visible on the bank, but as long as you enter the mountain, the waterway is not something that ordinary people can walk." The underground river passes through the mountain, and there are stalactite caves that go around and around, and the road inside is messy, and when you turn two corners in it, you will be confused, the front and back are the same, and the left and right are the same, and it is very dark inside, and there are very strange sounds. Wait for the next few big brothers to speak politely when they see the two brothers, if you offend the two of them, then don't cross this river, just climb the mountain!"

Liu Laohan asked in surprise when he heard this, "There are people with such skills, no wonder the shelf is so big, I have to meet them well in a while." ”

Liu Laohan said so, but the moment I saw him bow his head, a trace of imperceptible light flashed in his eyes, he seemed to be thinking about something, and the fist of one hand suddenly clenched tightly, and trembled a little.

After waiting for a while, the two capable boatmen in the mouth of the aunt had already arrived in the yard. They are a pair of brothers, one is called Wen Jun and the other is Wen Chou, but both of them are not good-looking, but the one named Wen Jun seems to look clever because of the word Jun in his name, and the one called Wen Chou has a bad name, ugly and ugly, and people look more stupid.

But I didn't see the depth and calmness of people with extraordinary skills on their faces, but I saw on their faces a kind of resignation that was looking forward to money.

When Liu Laohan saw their brothers, he immediately greeted them with a smile and shook hands with the two of them. When Liu Laohan shook hands with the two of them, he shook them very hard, and looked at the two brothers with that kind of smile while shaking hands, as if he was thinking about something.

The brothers were more sincere, and from their faces and eyes, they did not notice that they had an uncomfortable reaction to Liu Laohan's behavior.

After shaking hands with them, Liu Laohan lowered his head and pondered for a while, and then said to his aunt with a smile, "The journey on this road is far away, it takes seven or eight hours, auntie, do you have any peanuts and melon seeds to sell to us, otherwise how can we pass the time on the road?"

Aunt smiled and took out a big bag of peanuts from the house and handed it to Liu Laohan, Liu Laohan asked her for money, Aunt shook her hand and said, "Don't mention the money, just a bag of peanuts, you just remember to sell me the prey." ”

We said goodbye to my aunt and walked with the two brothers down the mountain, where the trees were relatively sparse and should have been cut down by the villagers, and we checked the nearby terrain as we walked, and soon came to the underground river that the brothers had mentioned.
