The old hunter Ferrantevo died. It was the leader Regit who found it.

Ever since the two women who fetched water told Ilguli about Landhor's kneeling for Ferrantevo, and Irguli told Regget, Regit had always had the idea of asking the old hunter why.

However, if you have an idea and don't act on it, if it is not delusional, it is at least a fantasy. With an idea, the action is late, and you can only see a corpse, like Regit.

Regitte regretted his indecision and slowness, because what he saw of Ferrantewalt's death was purely anomalous, specifically, murdered and unexpectedly killed.

The matter of the dead is not trivial. Regit did not dare to make decisions on his own, so he called Vasily Golotalin Komosov and others to witness. Of course, Tichota was also "invited".

No matter who you are, the days after you have just died will always be a topic. While people are sympathetic and compassionate, they have to recall, they have to discuss, and they have to comment.

-- This may be the last thing that a person leaves to others in his life.

People always like to hunt for curiosities. The more sudden it is, the faster it spreads. Soon outside the old hunter's house there were three groups of four, and many sympathetic and curious people were standing.

Inside, Regitt and a few of the men he summoned carefully examined the contents and the cause of Frentewo's death.

Ferrantevo's body was placed on the floor where he usually slept, with a pillow and a quilt, and at first glance, it looked like a normal death.

Pointing to the old hunter's neck, Regit said, "You see, there is such a deep mark on the neck, it must have been strangled with a rope." ”

Tychota took one more look and said, "Look at the imprints, it seems like it's been a while." Looking at his sleeping position, it seems that he has not woken up from a long dream, and he has not come up in one breath, and he died suddenly. ”

Carrying the ashes from the fire with a wooden stick, Vasily said: "Although the fire has been extinguished, there is still warmth, which means that the old hunter was killed in a day and a half." In other words, he died the night before. ”

Mosov had been standing in the corner, looking symbolically here and there, without talking or asking questions.

Tichota did not seem to be interested in the death of the old hunter, and would say that the house was too dirty, and that Ferrantevo had no children and no daughters, and that he had not been in good health for the past two years, and that he had died early and enjoyed happiness.

Golota has always stood by Regit's side, discussing and exchanging ideas with him from time to time.

"Vasily, you check, who was patrolling the night before yesterday?" Regit said, "I've found out, let him come over." ”

"Good. I'll go. ”

Vasily agreed, but before he could turn around, Mosov said: "Chief, I was on patrol the night before yesterday. ”

"You're patrolling? Why don't you report the dead in time? Without waiting for Regit to speak, Ticodo preemptively asked.

Mosov spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "My patrol is anti-theft and anti-sabotage, so I can't go door-to-door to look at people's houses, right?" ”

"Which leader said that Tevo was strangled with a rope, and didn't you hear the movement?" Tycodo asked.

"The tribe is too big, I can't stand in one place, right?" Mosov asked rhetorically, "Are you patrolling, just staying in one place?" ”

"No, no." Tichota shook his head and said, "I'll go out of the tribe to observe and discover." ”

Outside the room, people were talking and speculating.

"I heard that old Tevo was killed."

"Who harmed old Tevo for what? He was alone, and he had nothing precious. ”

"He is straight, he likes to debate, and he is unforgiving. It may be that you have offended someone with your words. ”

"Poor thing!"

A few more hunters entered the house. The small room was tightly packed. The questions that Regitte wanted to ask Mossov had been asked by Ticodo, and before a new question could be configured, he could only remain silent.

Golota's father heard the news and came in trembling with his cane. Everyone squeezed out a way for him to visit Ferrantevo.

The old hunter who came from the old man knelt down in front of him, and said with tears in his eyes: "Good brother, I dreamed last night that we were hunting in the wind and snow with old Mai Aten. Now this tribe is ominous, and I don't want to live anymore. Take me with you, and we'll go to him together and live a peaceful life. ”

The old man said that, and fell headlong on the old hunter. When everyone hurriedly helped him up, his crooked neck could no longer stand up, and his teary eyes could no longer be closed.

Golota broke down and cried bitterly: "No! My father was strong. He's not going to die! Landho, I'm going to kill you! ”

Tichota took Golota by the arm and said, "What nonsense! You don't get along with Landhuo, and you complain about your father's death? ”

The house was in chaos.

Regit ordered Vasily and Tikodo to take care of Golotta, while the rest of the group moved the old man out of the house and buried him with Ferrantevo tomorrow. The cause of the old hunter's death will be investigated later.

Landho stood in the crowd outside, and gasped in bewilderment when he saw everyone with sad expressions on their faces, carrying Golota's father.

After the hunters removed the old man's body, only Golotattikdo and Vasily were left in the house.

Tichota sternly said to Golotta, "Golotta, I warn you, keep your mouth shut. My father is gone, and I am very sad. Don't mess around, don't make trouble for me. ”

Golota, supported by Tichota and Vasily, wept bitterly and struggled, and followed his father's people back to the house.

Seeing that Golota was grief-stricken, Landho came over to dissuade him: "Don't be sad. Everyone felt uncomfortable. ”

Golota glared with tears in her eyes and shouted, "Get out!" "I started crying again.

Here Golota wept loudly, and over there Yashata wept silently. The onlookers were so infected that they wept and only looked at it silently.

-- Mammoth Valley is shrouded in desolate grief.

The hunters put the old man's body on the bunk where he often slept, covered him with a quilt as he usually slept, and left one after another. Only Regit and Vasily remained in the house.

Yashata sat beside her father and still cried, and when Ticho persuaded her, she couldn't help but cry. He put his arms around his wife, tried tears for her, and persuaded her kindly.

Golota, Reget, and Vasily sat down by the fire to discuss the burial of the old man.

Golota couldn't help crying: "My father, like the old hunter, was upright all his life, was kind to others, and made great contributions to the construction of the tribe. He always taught me to be a good man, to stand up to the sky, to take the overall situation into account, to take the tribe as my home, to follow the right path, and to fight against evil."

"Yes, he often taught me that, scolding me for not being angry." With tears in his eyes, Tycodo took over and said, "I don't blame my father, it's all my fault." Although I have a bad temper and talk nonsense, in fact, I am kind and soft-hearted. As soon as I see people crying, I want to cry Woo Yashata, don't cry, Evati will come back"

Ugg came crazy over. She walked straight to Golota's house.

Some of the people who had not yet left gathered around to see what else this madman could do.

Ugg came in with a serious expression. No one paid any attention to her. She didn't pay any attention to anyone. Approaching the old man's body, she glanced at the old man's face and said to Yashata, who was sobbing, "Don't be sad. I see that your father has risen in heaven. I'm with the old chief. ”

Yasha Ta grabbed Ugg's hand and asked in a serious voice, "Poor Ugg." You okay? ”

Ugg put his other hand on the back of Yasha Tala's hand and said, "Good, but also bad. It's not good, it's good. Your father is gone, but he is actually staying. When you are alive, it is in your life. When you leave, it stays in your heart. Ugg made a gesture of listening, paused for a moment, and said, "Old Tvo is calling me." I've got to go check it out. With that, he turned and left.

When the people gathered outside the house saw Ugg coming out, they hurried out of the way, for fear that Ug would touch them.

Some children were so frightened that they started crying. When the daring child saw Ugg go away, he cried out, "Witch, madman. "Witch, ugly."

A child hiding in his mother's arms was still crying, and the mother said, "If you cry again, I will give you to the mad witch." ”

The child immediately stopped crying and pressed his face against the mother's shoulder. Unexpectedly, this trick is more clever than breastfeeding the child.

Ugg came to the Frentevo house in a frenzy. As she entered, she squinted behind her and saw a few women and children following her. Uger sighed in his heart, cut, this madman is pretending to be and deceiving everyone. It's really uncomfortable to pretend to be a madman, the key is that you can't deceive yourself.

Ugg took a quick look at the environment in the room, and everything was ruined, and there was no way to refer to it. She walked over to the old hunter's body and looked carefully into his eyes, mouth, and neck. In view of the crowd at the door, Ugg did not take off the quilt to look more.

According to Uger's analysis, Old Two's slightly closed eyes were artificially closed after death. The same goes for the mouth. In order to prove her judgment, she deliberately said to the old hunter, "Your pillow is too high, I'll help you remove it." Ugg said, pulling off the pillow, and sure enough, the old hunter's mouth slowly opened. She hurriedly pulled her head up and put it on the pillow.

Ugg turned to go out. The women and children who were standing in the doorway screamed and ran away.

She came out and made a tongue-sticking grimace and said to them, "Come in, old Tevo called you." ”

With that, he jumped and went back the way he came. It attracted a lot of attention and discussion. It has become a landscape that alleviates sorrow.

Ugg is Ugg after all! Her natural intelligence and later thoughtfulness and cultivation could not be said to be indistinguishable in terms of skill, but in terms of wisdom, she far surpassed all the judgment and coping abilities that an ordinary wizard possessed.

She re-entered the door of Golotta's house and said inside, "Old Tevo is asleep, don't let me disturb him." I'm going back to sleep too. He turned around and walked away.

In the room, a word from Tichota came out: "Go and die." We will bury you and old Tvo together and make him his wife in the underworld. ”
