Chapter 278: My Wife Must Have Run Away!
The next day, taking advantage of the early morning to look for birds, Longxiang Village is really a natural oxygen bar, breathing fresh air, with the fragrance of the woods, a rare forest experience place.
People who come here like to stand on the covered bridge and gaze at this natural scene, like a painting of woods and mountains flowing through each other, through the eyes that look deeply imprinted in their minds, occasionally a burst of rain, everything becomes vivid.
The red-tailed water robin, a frequent visitor to the stream, likes to open its fan-shaped tail and is agile and active in the mossy stream, while the gray-backed swallowtail swings its tail up and down, sometimes flying into the depths of the grass next to the stream, and occasionally jumping and swaying on the drooping branches.
There is a black-browed woodpecker sound in the mountains and forests, Zhu Mingtong has seen its beautiful appearance in Hainan Jianfengling, and the sound is also heard everywhere, and now I am a little unfamiliar with it.
Birdsong conveys a certain kind of language, and although it is impossible to understand these words exactly, it is content to enjoy it in the mountains and forests.
In the early morning, the clouds and mist were shrouded, and the smoke curled in Longxiang Village.
Zhu Mingtong and others walked into the village, and the bright sunlight poured down, dyeing the roof tiles in the color of the morning sun.
In today's mountain villages, almost all of the people left behind are the elderly, and few young people are willing to stay in the village.
Some people say that when they were young, they went out desperately to earn money, and when they earned money, their health was not good, but they wanted to retreat in a quiet and pure mountain forest......
I didn't know that they had this condition at the beginning, but when they couldn't toss their bodies, they remembered that the place they once lived was so pure.
This is the common disease of contemporary people, the greed for money, the yearning for freedom and seclusion, somewhat contradictory.
The group changed their faces and entered the village as the city's exploration team.
Not far away, two old men sit lazily and comfortably on the wooden bench half-squinting and soaking in the sun, although it is the arrival of early spring, but the mountains and forests are still very cold, the warm sunshine seems to be able to dispel the chill on the body, at a glance there are many old people basking in the sun along the only street in the village.
The old people here often say that basking in the sun, frostbite removes.
There is also a certain saying.
When Zhu Mingtong and his party walked into the village dressed as archaeologists, the name of the village began to cast curious glances, some people whispered something, and some people pointed in the distance, it seemed that few outsiders came to this village.
Zhu Mingtong walked up to the two old men and asked with a smile, "Old man, how do you go to Wu Tianzhu's house?" ”
A brown-haired old man, his face was covered with deep wrinkles, raised his eyes to look at Zhu Mingtong, puzzled, and said, "There is no one in the Zhuzi family, I'm sick, go to the provincial hospital." ”
The old man is still simple, and he almost has no doubts about Zhu Mingtong and others.
"Sick? Is the whole family gone? Zhu Mingtong pretended to be surprised and asked.
In fact, it is also throwing bricks and attracting jade, knocking on the side to ask where the dragon corpse appeared.
"Yes, I have a strange disease, and my family is small, and I don't know what to do in the future." The white-bearded old man let out a long sigh, his expression a little pitiful.
"Old man, what kind of strange disease does Wu Tianzhu have?" Luo Jun stepped forward and asked.
The old man in the tunic next to the white-bearded old man looked at Zhu Mingtong and his party suspiciously, and said with a somewhat unhappy face: "Who are you?" ”
Fortunately, Zhu Mingtong was prepared before he came, and hurriedly picked up the sign on his chest and handed it to the two old men: "We are Wu Lingling's classmates, she introduced us to her hometown for investigation, we are from the Modu Geological Survey Institute, and we are here to take some materials." ”
The two old men looked at it for a long time, and it seemed that their eyes were not very good, and they pondered for a long time before believing in the identity of Zhu Mingtong and others.
"Don't stay in the city, what to do in this poor and remote place, and talk about what there is to investigate in this mountain." The old man in the tunic obviously doesn't treat people very well, and his expression is not so kind, perhaps because of the lonely old man at home, no one has relatives around.
"In response to the party's call, lucid waters and lush mountains are invaluable assets, and many expeditions in the city are going to places where the mountains and forests are protected, in order to make the land of China full of green, so that the descendants of China can live in a pure and pollution-free environment." The concubine and the little fairy said cute and cute.
Not to mention the concubines, the two old men really let down a lot of vigilance, and looked at the concubines with the same gaze as they looked at their granddaughters.
"Grandpa's nemesis?" Luo Jun muttered.
Not to mention, it really works.
"Alas...... The pillar is too pitiful, when I was young, my wife died in childbirth, and I was single for a lifetime, and I ended up like this, and I don't know if I got through it. The old man in the tunic let out a long sigh.
"Grandpa, can you tell me specifically, did he encounter something, or did he say that he ate something unclean." The concubine asked.
"I said a long time ago, he must have gone to that place to anger the dragon god."
At this time, an old man with a somewhat serious and rigid face limped to the side of several people with a cane.
This person is the village chief of Longxiang Village, he looks almost eighty years old, if it weren't for the inconvenience of his legs, it seems that his body is quite tough, after he walked over, the two old men before were obviously a little more in awe, and they didn't dare to talk nonsense.
"Where?" Zhu Mingtong asked curiously.
"Young man, I advise you to go back and forth from where you come from, this is not the place for you to come." The old village chief immediately issued an order to evict the guests.
"Village chief, they are from the geological survey team from the magic capital, and they are here to investigate, not for the good of our village." The white-bearded old man said.
"Hmph, I don't usually come here, but if something happens, I come in waves, what do you think of us here?" The old village chief said coldly.
"Old village chief, have we been here before?" Zhu Mingtong looked very surprised.
According to the village chief, there have been expeditions like theirs before, and only recently.
The old village elder was angry, with a bit of cross-mindedness, waved his hand and said, "Go back, you are not welcome here." ”
"Why are you the village chief very unreasonable, can't you say it well if you have something to say, besides, we didn't take any place for you, embezzled anything, just ask for something, but we can drag you to 258 taels." The more Luo Jun listened, the more angry he became, how could a village chief be so stubborn.
When the old village chief heard this, he was angry, and his crutches trembled, and his face was blue and white.
At this time, there were a lot of onlookers in the village, and when they saw that the village chief was angry with Zhu Mingtong, they pointed and talked about it, and their eyes became unfriendly.
Zhu Mingtong sank his face, and the silver light in his eyes swept over all the names of the villages here.
I wanted to investigate carefully, but I didn't know that the village chief was so unreasonable, so I had to force him to use the pupils of the lying spirit.
After sweeping around, Zhu Mingtong knew in his heart.
"Luo Jun, let's get out of here first." Zhu Ming channel.
"Why, we didn't do anything wrong, why should we leave." Luo Jun said angrily.
"You're stupid, it's all old people here, if they have a heart attack or lie to you, you can't wash it when you jump into the galaxy, you can understand it when you see it." Zhu Ming channel.
Luo Jun was angry, but he also knew that these old people were not easy to deal with.
Especially the self-righteous old village chief.
"My wife must have run away with someone else." Luo Jun said.
Zhu Mingtong stumbled and grinned: "Don't say it, his wife really ran away with someone else." ”
"What do I say, no wonder the whole face is green." Luo Jun said.
When the old village chief heard this, his nostrils were about to smoke, and he puffed out on crutches: "Get out, get out of me!" ”
The old men, who were originally the same enemy as the old village chief, also snickered gloating when they heard it, as if this matter had always been a topic of idle conversation among the villagers, but they didn't expect to be exposed by a few young men in public, not to mention how ugly the old village chief's face was.
The group didn't miss anything, and left the village directly, and went to the mountains and forests where they rested yesterday.
"I already know the specific situation, about three days ago, a team of four people entered Wolong Mountain, their purpose is similar to ours, at first they also asked about the legends in Wolong Mountain, and then asked where the dragon corpse once appeared." Zhu Mingtong said seriously.
"Who are they, and how could anyone be interested in dragon corpses?" Luo Jun was puzzled.
"I don't know, the village chief's inner memory is a little vague, maybe some Alzheimer's, anyway, I can't see the faces of the four people clearly.
Still, I think it's likely to be peers! Zhu Mingtong's tone aggravated a little.
"Geological Survey Team?" The concubine asked.
Zhu Mingtong gave her a big roll of his eyes and said seriously: "They should be immortals like us, and I think that their coming here may have a lot to do with the Traces of the Yellow Mountain Sky we saw last night." ”
"No, it's hundreds of miles away from Huangshan here, why did they come here to find clues?" Luo Jun said.
"It's just some kind of speculation, and right now, they're already in the lead, and we have to rush there." Zhu Mingtong said a little anxiously.
"Do you know the exact location?"
"Yes.
Don't say it, this rumor is actually true, about thirty years ago, this old village chief saw the dragon corpse of Wolong Mountain with his own eyes. Zhu Mingtong said.
"It's not a rumor?" Xiao Hei also looked a little surprised.
"Well, it caused a lot of sensation at the time, and it was said that it was even published in the newspaper, but in the end the news was blocked by the government.
And the night before they wanted to carry the dragon corpse, the dragon corpse disappeared, leaving only a few bones and scales at the scene. Zhu Mingtong said.
These are all seen from the depths of the hearts of several old people, asking if the path exploration is fake, Zhu Mingtong's purpose is to see through their hearts at one time, so as not to have too much water in the words they say.
