"What did you say?"

I didn't understand, kicked away the gravel at my feet and walked in the direction of Lao Liu. There were dark yellow mountains all around, and I couldn't tell where and where they were, and only people like them who often walked around the mountains would be familiar with the topography of the mountains and rivers.

"This is it," Lao Liu squatted and skimmed the lime in front of him, pointed to the mound in front of him and said, "The last time I came here, I remember clearly, the place where the mask was dug out was at least ten meters away from the entrance of the cave, you see ...... now."

Indeed, this mountain chamber is located at most five meters from the entrance of the cave. The entrance to the cave is trapezoidal, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, and looks like an open mouth. It is said that if there is a deviation in memory, it is impossible to have such a big loophole, and it is obvious that there is something wrong with this mountain.

"It's weird," the middle-aged man said as well, scratching the back of his head and frowning. But looking at his expression, he seemed to be a little speechless and stopped.

I leaned up, squatted on the ground and stretched out my hand to twist the debris like them, and I couldn't see any difference from the mud and rocks around me, and I discharged the situation that the mountain had grown due to natural external forces.

In this way, there is only one possibility, and that is the evil in this mountain. In this hot day, I couldn't help but feel an inexplicable cold air spreading around me. None of them spoke, they looked at each other and tacitly agreed.

I said...... Lao Liu, let's go back, it seems that we can't find the place we are looking for today. The young man spoke first, breaking the silence.

"Okay, I'll see it." The middle-aged man on the side immediately echoed.

Lao Liu didn't speak, lowered his head and seemed to be thinking about something, and didn't object, as if he acquiesced to everyone's suggestion. After a long time, he saw that I didn't speak, stood up from the ground, patted his thigh and said, "Go!" ”

Before the words fell, a thunderclap suddenly burst out from the mountain, and the three of us subconsciously shouted, and several soulless echoes echoed in the empty mountain room. Sounds extremely weird.

Then, as if to give us no respite, the raindrops the size of beans fell lifelessly, and bullets smashed around the basket mountain. The sky darkened rapidly. From day to night at once.

The young man reacted first, and immediately ran out of the mountain room and stepped into the rain.

"Huh! It really hurts! Why is it raining all of a sudden! He immediately retracted his poked head and touched his forehead.

I also stretched out my hand, and the strength of the raindrops made me feel a little numb in my palms. It seems that I don't want to go back from the mountains for a while.

The middle-aged man sighed deeply and scolded his mother. He looked down and fumbled in his pocket, took out a cigarette, and expertly lit it, and a dim light immediately filled the mountain room, mixed with a strong smell of choking.

"What a cigarette!" Seeing this, Lao Liu immediately rushed forward and snuffed out the cigarette in the middle-aged man's hand, "This rainstorm comes and stops quickly, are you so unable to stand it!" ”

The middle-aged man let out a contemptuous snort from his mouth, raised his leg and stepped on the butt of the cigarette, as if venting his dissatisfaction just now.

"What? Don't think I don't know what the last time there was a fire in the mountains! Lao Liu's voice was raised, and the echo in the cave immediately came.

Now the middle-aged man stopped talking. He stared down at the dirt on the ground. I thought there was nothing wrong between them, so I sat on my legs in a corner of the mountain, waiting for the rainstorm to end. There was a crackling sound outside the cave door, but the rain was heavy but not light, and the sky was getting darker and darker.

"Lao Liu," there was a moment of silence, and the middle-aged man suddenly opened his mouth, "Do you know why I threw the unextinguished cigarette butt into the mountains that time?" ”

Lao Liu heard his question, did not answer, and turned his head to stare at the heavy rain. She glanced at him with slanted eyes, as if to let him continue.

"Wasn't it my turn to keep vigil that day, it was really hard in the middle of the night, and I was very sleepy. I just want to smoke a cigarette to refresh myself......"

"I'm × your uncle! Don't you know the rule that you can't smoke in the mountains! You ......"

"Eh, Lao Liu, don't get excited, listen to me first," the middle-aged man said in a low voice, "I know that you can't smoke in the mountains, it's for fear of fire." Hey. Actually, I've always smoked, but every time I take the cigarette butt away, don't worry. ”

But in the middle of the night, thinking that no one would see me, I ran out into the open space and smoked. At the beginning, it was the same as the previous times, the surroundings were numb and black, and I couldn't see anything, just a round of teeth-like moonlight, and no one could see anyone and no ghost. I'm fine looking in the direction of this mountain room, and guess what? ”

The open mountain room was moving slowly like a grinning mouth. At first glance, I thought I was dazzled, but I took a puff of cigarette to refresh myself, and then I saw that it was not me who was dazzled, and the door of the cave was really shaking. That scared me, the cigarette in my hand fell off, and I ran straight home. ”

"After staying at home for a few hours, I remembered that I didn't bring back the cigarette butt, and when I saw that the sky was almost dawn and I was bold, I was ready to look for the cigarette butt. Who knew that as soon as I ran into the mountain, I saw that there was a fire, so I called for someone to put out the fire. ”

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, no one answered in the cave. I stared at the scene in front of me in amazement, as if in the midst of this torrential rain, a secret hidden in the dirt was suddenly revealed, and people were a little caught off guard.

The rain outside the cave door was still very heavy, and a lot of water vapor had splashed into the cave, and the air was obviously much moister.

"I think you're just smoky and confused! I've been guarding this mountain for decades, and I've never seen you say that. Don't make excuses for me, just smoke, if I had reported you, I would have said it a long time ago, and you would still be able to stay until now? Lao Liu finished speaking in one breath and spat on the ground.

"Can I speak...... Do I see anything strange in this mountain? After listening to the middle-aged man's narration, the young man on the side swallowed his saliva, his expression was not as calm as before, his eyes widened, and he seemed to have something to say, "I...... I've seen it too! ”

"What are you kid doing to make a fuss!" Lao Liu was a little impatient, his tone raised a lot, and the mountain room seemed to collapse under the impact of the echo and the beating of the torrential rain. "I think you two are just idle! Why don't I just take you two over! Damn, I'm ×, I'm really blind. ”

The young man ignored Lao Liu's angry scolding, and when he saw that I didn't speak and stared at him, he immediately came**, "Miss Wu, that ...... When I was keeping vigil with my father, I heard a cry in the mountains, a man's cry, it sounded very miserable, and ah, I saw an old ......."

"Shut up!" Lao Liu finally broke out, and this roar rolled down into the cave with the thunder in the mountain, so frightened that my three souls and six spirits almost ran out of my body, "You two shut up!" What nonsense to talk about in broad daylight! I tell you that there are no ghosts and gods in Basket Mountain at all! Clean your mouth! This ......"

I listened to Lao Liu's reprimand, and didn't realize for a while that he stopped, and when I raised my head to look at him again, I saw that his mouth was half open, and he still maintained a speaking posture, but his face was no longer bloodless, staring blankly in the direction of the cave, almost forgetting what he was going to say next. (To be continued.) )
