Ancient trees bleed, which many old people had heard of in their mouths.

After Wu Hao ran away from home, he had a rural life, and once heard an old man tell a similar story.

It is said that when the Japanese invaded the Celestial Empire, the little devil came to their village, and there was a huge ancient tree in the village, which happened to block the main road.

The little devil was naturally very unhappy, and he dared to block the road, and immediately sent someone to cut down the tree.

But this tree has been regarded as a belief by the people in the village, and it is worshiped every day, it is said that it is spiritual, how can people cut it down, so the whole village stopped in front of the tree to prevent the devil from cutting down the tree.

But the more this happened, the more angry the little devil became, and after killing a few villagers, he arrested everyone else, and sent people to continue cutting down trees.

At this time, some old people with more status in the village said that the tree would be punished if it was cut down, and they even hit the tree headfirst, and blood splashed five feet.

But the devil just didn't believe in evil, so he resolutely cut down the tree.

But the evil thing happened, and when the axe went down, the tree began to bleed, and the devil who cut the tree fainted in fright on the spot, and the leader of the devil did not believe in evil, so he sent people to continue to cut it.

Halfway through the cut, the ancient tree was still bleeding, but it was much less, and the leader of the devil was very proud, and what about the bleeding of the tree, it was not the fate of being cut down.

As a result, at this moment, a lightning bolt fell from the sky and directly killed the leader of the devils, and then the frightened souls of the other little devils were lost, and they ran away, and they couldn't care about anything else.

And those little devils are said to have not died well in the end.

The truth of this story remains to be studied, but the bleeding of ancient trees is certainly not groundless, because many villages still have such a custom, that is, to put red cloth on some ancient trees, burn incense and pray for blessings, and worship them as temples.

Of course, Wu Hao has also seen the scientist's explanation of this matter, saying that the ancient tree bleeds because the tree contains special chemicals, and when it reacts when it encounters air, it forms a substance similar to blood.

But Wu Hao treated them with a sneer, so he didn't believe these scientific experts, they were simply fooled.

At the end of the east side of the village, a road leads into the distance, and at the intersection stands a huge ancient tree, which should be a locust tree, and it is estimated that three or four people can hold hands to hold it.

There were a few buds scattered on the top, and all the rest had died, and as in the story, the locust tree was wrapped in red cloth, and below there was an incense burner the size of a basin, which was full of incense ashes, and it was evident that the incense was in full bloom.

And when he arrived, he found that someone had already started to incense, and it was a middle-aged couple.

Wu Hao did not shy away from it, and walked forward directly, and the middle-aged couple may have finished their wishes, so they planned to pack up their things and leave.

"Uncle, can you talk?"

Wu Hao asked.

The middle-aged uncle nodded: "Of course you can, you brought Hu Jun's doll, right?" ”

"Yes, uncle, I want to ask, is this ancient tree effective?"

Wu Hao asked.

The middle-aged uncle said proudly: "Of course it works, this locust tree is the treasure of our village, it is said to be thousands of years old, many people in the village will come to make wishes, and many of them have come true." ”

"So amazing? Uncle, have you made your wish more than once, have they all been fulfilled? ”

Wu Hao asked.

A trace of embarrassment flashed in the middle-aged uncle's eyes, but he said, "Of course it came true." ”

"Oh? Then I'm really interested in this tree, I see that your village is so poor, why don't you sell the tree to me, I'll pay a million, you go and discuss it with the people in your village, okay? ”

Wu Hao's eyes rolled and he smiled.

"Good!"

As soon as the middle-aged man heard that there was one million, he was stupid, and subconsciously nodded to discuss it with the people in the village.

But before he could take a step, he was grabbed by his wife and said, "You are stupid, it's not that no one has come to buy this ancient tree before, and in the end, it is not that you haven't bought it, and it is not in vain that you go to someone to discuss?" ”

Hearing this, a glimmer of light flashed in Wu Hao's eyes: "What, someone has bought this ancient tree before?" Listen to the aunt's meaning that she hasn't been able to buy it yet? ”

"Yes, three years ago, two young people wanted to buy the old tree, but after the whole village agreed, when they were about to use a chainsaw to see the wood, they only got the bark, and the old tree bleed, you see, there are still traces of that chainsaw on the locust tree."

Wu Hao looked along her fingers, and sure enough, there were obvious chainsaw marks on it.

"The worker was so frightened that he peed his pants on the spot, and said that he would not do anything, and the two young men had no choice, so they stayed in the village for a day, planning to find a few more workers to continue to work."

"But the next day the two young men went crazy."

The middle-aged aunt said everything in one go.

After Wu Hao heard this, he pondered for a while and was about to ask some other questions, but the aunt seemed to remember something again, and continued: "In addition to those two young people, a foreigner also came a few days ago, saying that he was buying an ancient tree, but he lived in the village for several days, and after wandering around, he actually regretted it again. ”

"Oh? Do you remember what the stranger looked like? ”

Wu Hao asked a little hurriedly, this is a very valuable message.

"It's strange to say, I can't remember what he looks like, but he must be a young man, about your age." The middle-aged aunt still knows everything.

Wu Hao's brows furrowed slightly, he was basically sure that the young man who came to buy the tree was not simple, because he could also make people gradually forget his specific appearance within a few days after seeing his face.

"Thank you, Auntie."

Wu Hao thanked him, but before the aunt could say anything, the uncle directly pulled his wife away, obviously the uncle also felt that his wife was a little big-mouthed.

After Wu Hao watched the two leave, he looked carefully around the ancient locust tree, and his brows became more and more wrinkled.

After that, he left here, walked around the village a few times, and had some strange little things in his hand, and then he returned to Hu Jun's house.

It didn't take long for Hu Jun and Tugou to come back, and apparently their mission was accomplished.

"How? Did you hear about it? ”

Wu Hao didn't bother to be polite, and asked directly.

"I inquired, we visited almost all the old people in the village, and finally got the relevant content from their mouths, it is true that since the end of the Qing Dynasty, there will be fourteen or fifteen-year-old children in the village who suddenly go crazy, and to this day, there are more than fifty children who have gone crazy inexplicably and finally died."

Hu Jun opened his mouth and said, he himself was frightened by this number.

And the earth dog looked at Wu Hao and asked, "You must have found something when you asked us to inquire about this, right?" ”

"Yes, I found something."

Saying that, Wu Hao put the strange things in his hand in front of the two of them.
