Chapter 182: Mandrill

"You who have suffered a thousand knives, you will not die well sooner or later, you have sores and pus all over your body, maggots on your body, you fall from the cliff, you will be hit by five thunderstorms from the sky......"

In the quiet of the early morning, the atmosphere became eerie. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Listening to the old woman groping in front of them and uttering all kinds of cursed words sharply, everyone felt confused and a little creepy.

Li Xun hurriedly said: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, we are passing by." ”

"Whoever passes by will not die well, and whoever passes by will have his bones broken and ashes scattered, and those who pass by will go to eighteen layers of hell ......."

The faces of the people were full of anger, who wants to suffer this curse for no reason.

Jiang Qi was a little angry, and replied, "You old lady, did we provoke you?"

The old woman's voice paused, and suddenly changed to a calm tone: "Is it really passing?"

"Oh, you old woman. ”

"It's really passing. ”

"It's just passing by here, what are you cursing. ”

“……”

Everyone was a little angry, really angry, especially under the premise that three comrades-in-arms were missing. If this person was not an old woman, but a strong man, it is estimated that the soldiers would have been caught and beaten wildly.

The old woman listened to these unkind words, but she became calmer, and after a moment of calm, she suddenly threw away her crutches, sat down on the ground, and began to cry.

The strange thing is that even if she cried heartbreakingly, there was not a single tear, to be honest, if it weren't for her loud voice, I would have thought it was fake crying.

"Save my son, save my son. ”

The old woman cried and cried.

Li Xun squatted on the ground and asked, "What's wrong with your son?"

"My son went into the woods to cut wood 10 years ago and hasn't come back since. I know who got it, but I can't find it as an old woman. I reported the case to the Public Security Bureau, but the police station was too far away to come. ”

When Xu Qianyun heard this, she frowned and snorted coldly: "What kind of police station is this?

Li Xun whispered: "Don't be surprised, she said ten years ago." ”

Li Xun asked again: "Then how old is your son?"

"I was twenty-five when I disappeared. ”

That should be thirty-five by now.

Li Xun had an idea and suddenly disappeared?

Subconsciously turned his head to look at Jiang Qi, Jiang Qi also glanced at Li Xun thoughtfully, and then opened his mouth wide.

Li Xun hurriedly asked, "You say you know who took your son away?"

"Mandrills. ”

Mandrill?

Xu Qianyun gasped and whispered, "Isn't that a legendary thing?

Li Xun suddenly laughed a little, mandrill?

It's really fateful. Thousands of years ago, it was with mandrills that there was a flower cannon door.

"This old lady, how do you know that you were taken away by mandrills?"

At first, everyone thought that she was a crazy old woman, but now they realized that she was not crazy at all. She can sensibly distinguish who is passing by, and she can sensibly ask these people for help, obviously, her logical thinking is very clear.

The old woman cried, "Many young people have let the mandrill go, and some people have seen the mandrill come out at night to arrest people." ”

"Where is the mandrill?" asked Li Xun thoughtfully.

"To the south, on the edge of the cliff of Longwei Mountain. ”

South?

Li Xun turned his head to look at the distance, turned his head and said solemnly: "Jiang Qi, I can't protect those missing soldiers, I really let the mandrill take away." ”

Jiang Qi's eyes were full of confusion: "What is a mandrill?"

Li Xun said: "Mandrill is a folk name, and scientifically it is called a ghost baboon. But this kind of thing is only available in the south, and it is a bit unscientific to appear in the Qinling Mountains. ”

"Ghost baboon?"

"Yes, this ghost baboon is very brutal, very clever and cunning, and extremely combative. When the lion and the tiger saw it, they all had to run. On top of that, mandrills are in groups once they are infested. There are leaders in it, they can arrange tactics, and basically people meet mandrills in the forest, and they are all fierce and lucky. ”

Li Xun explained.

The old woman was pleasantly surprised and asked, "Have you ever seen a mandrill?"

Li Xun smiled and said: "I have killed a lot. ”

The old woman suddenly jumped up and grabbed Li Xun's trouser leg: "Save my son." ”

"Our people also let the mandrill take away, and when they see your son, they will definitely save him. ”

The old woman suddenly sighed: "It's been ten years, I'm not stupid. When he saw my son, he brought back the bones. I can't touch his bones, I can't settle in the ground, I can't close my eyes. After my son was arrested, I **** cried, crying every night, and these eyes were blind from crying. But God won't let me die, I live alone in this mountain, why don't I die, dreaming of my dead husband. He said that if I can't find my son for a day, I won't die for a day. ”

Li Xun patted her withered hands with some emotion and said, "You are so clothed in linen and filial piety every day, how do you live alone?"

"The government allocates money every year. ”

When Jiang Qi heard this, he asked in surprise: "You live alone?"

"yes. ”

Everyone gasped, looked at each other, and suddenly stood in awe.

This old woman actually lives alone, if it is an ordinary old lady, it may be nothing, but she is blind!

Everyone can imagine that this blind old woman is on crutches every day, groping for a fire to cook, groping for life in the dark, living in that resentment. can also imagine her unforgettable hatred, this behavior of cursing when she sees people, it is estimated that it has become her subconscious confession.

Li Xun also admired the old woman's perseverance, her fate was tragically like this, and she could still live tenaciously for ten years. And when I grabbed myself, I could clearly feel that the strength was not small.

I have to accept life, Xue Qizhen is right sometimes, some people look strong when they should die, but his life is so fragile. And some people don't deserve to die, they look weak and sick, but they can live a long life.

Li Xun asked again: "What are you burning paper for in the middle of the night?"

"Today is the first day of the new year. ”

First?

Li Xunyi raised his eyebrows: "Do you still remember the days?"

"Yes. On the first day of every month, I asked the land lord to help me find my son. I knew that I couldn't find my son back, so I could only beg the land lord, and after ten years of begging, I finally waited for it today. ”

As she spoke, the old woman fell silent and looked at everyone with a pair of white eyes.

Everyone was a little creepy by this eye, and when they heard the old woman's last words, "Today has finally arrived", everyone's scalps were numb. Qi Qi turned his head to look at the portrait of the Earth Lord in the soil cave.

But I saw that the little old man in the portrait was full of warm smiles, and his eyes were full of smiles, as if he was looking at everyone. (To be continued.) )
