……

I soaked my feet in the basin of water while chatting with the little girl in front of me.

She was already a junior high school student and went to school in a nearby town. When many people come to her house for a temporary stay, she will take the initiative to wash the feet of the guests, and the guests will give her dozens or 100 yuan.

Most of the guests here are men, and some of them have particularly smelly feet. When the little girl said this, she still pinched her nose and made a very bad smell, but she did laugh very happily.

I also smiled and asked her if my feet stink? She said a little, and then there was a giggle.

"Thank you, brother, my mother said the same about me." The little girl smiled very sweetly, and a little tiger tooth was cute leaking outside.

I smiled and wiped my feet clean, put my shoes back on, and said, "By the way, are there many people in the village?" Why wasn't there anyone on the street when you came today? ”

"It's a lot, but everyone doesn't dare to go out in the past two days, because these days ......" The little girl suddenly turned around and looked out of the door when she said this, and said in a low voice: "Because there are monsters in the village these days......"

I was stunned for a moment and asked suspiciously, "Monster?" Anyone saw it? "How can there be a monster, it should be an adult who made it up to deceive children.

"No one saw it." The little girl thought for a moment and said, "I tell you, you must not say it, or Abba will scold me." ”

"Okay, tell me what kind of monster it is?" I nodded and asked with a kind expression.

"Well, someone in the village has seen it with their own eyes, and that monster will not only eat cows, horses, livestock, but also people!"

"Brother Azhuang and Brother Aping in the village ......"

Listening to the little girl's words, my expression couldn't help but become serious. According to the little girl's description, many cows and horses have died in this village recently, and even several people have died.

"Brother, you don't know, the death of those people is so terrible, they have all become ...... Becoming ......" The little girl looked carefully, and continued: "It's like a big red date!" ”

The little girl pointed to a plate of red dates at the head of the pit and said, I smiled and took the big red dates and handed them to the little girl to eat. This red date was sent to me by the family to eat, and there will be no fruit if I want to come to this cold and snowy place, and the little girl is very happy to eat red dates.

"Like a big red date...... I looked at the big red date, its skin had become crumpled because of the loss of moisture.

A picture popped up in my mind, isn't it just like being sucked dry? Could it be......

"Little sister, what do the adults in the village say?" I continued to ask.

"The grandfathers in the village all say......" The little girl pouted and ate some big red dates and said: "The grandfathers said that our village offended the snow god of the Tianshan Mountains, and this is the snow god's punishment for the village......"

I smiled helplessly, Snow God...... I'd rather believe in ghosts than gods. Even if there is a god, it should be a powerful living being, and it cannot be a god who protects mankind.

If there really is an almighty God, then human beings will all pray to God to worship the Buddha, and still struggle and yarn?

"Okay, I've washed it, where is the water?" I stood up and said.

"No, I'll just do this." The little girl directly picked up my footwater.

"I'll come." I snatched the basin and held it firmly with one hand. "If only you showed me the way."

"That'...... All right. The little girl nodded, and took the lead out of the room. After walking out of this room, there was the living room of his house, and her grandmother immediately opened her mouth to reproach, "How can you let the guests pour water?" ”

I hurriedly said no, and the little girl led me out of the room. It was cold outside, so the little girl wrapped herself in a small padded jacket and told me that it would be nice to just pour the water on the snow next to me.

"Little Dolma, can you take me to see the corpses of those animals that have been bitten to death by monsters?" I crouched down and asked earnestly.

"Ah...... This one...... All right. The little girl agreed, ran back and put the tub back at home, and told her grandmother to go out and have a look. When the woman heard that it was a guest's request, she didn't say anything.

"You're pretty smart." I picked up the little girl directly and held her in my arms like a little princess, otherwise I was afraid that she would catch a cold.

"Giggles......" the little girl smiled happily, "If I say to go see that, Grandma will definitely not let me go." ”

I took the little girl in my arms and soon walked to a snowy field on the east side of the village. Those things that have been bitten to death by monsters cannot be buried in the ground, for fear that they will cause the gods to be dissatisfied.

When I looked at the corpse, my whole body became extremely solemn.

It was the carcass of a yak, and the skeleton of Mori Bai could be seen in the eye. Its flesh and skin had rotted, and with the snow and ice covering it, only black ice crystals could be seen.

Its skin has become shredded and disgusting.

"Brother, let's hurry up, otherwise it will cause the gods to be dissatisfied." The little girl had already buried her head in my arms, urging constantly.

"Okay, let's go." I lowered my head to take a closer look at the disgusting corpse before turning away.

When I got back to my room, I gave the little girl all the cash I had, probably a few thousand dollars. The girl didn't dare to ask for it, so I had to give her two hundred-dollar tickets, and then when she was gone, I stuffed the money under the mat at the head of the pit.

The next day, I didn't get up until the sun was warm into the house. The wool felt here is really familiar to sleep, and it feels like holding a soft little lamb.

When I got up, the little girl brought me another wash and brought me breakfast.

After washing his face, he ate the food here. It's not delicious, but I'm not picky about what I eat.

"Brother, Brother...... "I was eating, and the girl suddenly ran in and said, "Brother, something happened, they asked you to hurry over......"

Lin Zhentian and Bai Qianhe lived in the village chief's house, and after the little girl sent me over, I also let her go home first.

When I arrived, it was already full of people. After listening to other people's accounts, my face turned gloomy again.

Just last night, a warrior was killed by the so-called monster in the village. His death was the same as that of all those killed by monsters, with a tooth wound on his neck, and all the essence and blood in his body were sucked away.

"And now what about the corpse? Take me to see it. I spoke.

"The body died in the snow, frozen into ice, and the man had gone to thaw it in order to check his body!" A man said.

"What? Thaw ......" I immediately let out a cry of consternation......
