Li Xiruo thought about Feng Shi's words, and asked Wu Lindao: "Decades ago, did anything strange happen in your village?" ”

Wu Lin thought for a long time: "My mother was only a teenager at that time, and I don't know the specifics, but there are two strange things." ”

The first thing he said was that people died of hunger in the famine that year, and the two strange fish, and the second thing was related to the tree. After the divine tree was powerful, a shocking thunder fell from the sky, and a monster appeared in the village, no one could see what it looked like, but the power was not small.

Every night it is a storm, appearing at the head and end of people's beds, on the side of the pillow, frightening many people, but if it is just scary, it will forget it, but it is also making waves and harming people, making the village miserable, when everyone is panicked, the monster disappeared again, so that no one in the village has ever seen that thing again.

If Li Xiruo hadn't asked, the people in the village would have forgotten all about the Year of the Monkey and the Moon.

Zhou Run also looked at Feng Shi and asked to no avail, and said anxiously between his eyebrows: "Then what now, the box doesn't know where it came from, and people don't know where it went." ”

Li Xiruo glanced at him: "You don't have to worry, you give me Qian Mansheng's birthday first." ”

Zhou Run also said it, but he didn't know what the use of it was, Li Xiruo didn't bother to explain too much, just let them go back to rest first, maybe there would be a result tomorrow morning.

Li Xiruo took Qian Mansheng's birthday back to the room, and calculated his fortune, it was Mizusawa Sleepy Hexagram, indicating that he would have a great disaster tonight, and that woman's statement was only afraid that it would be too fulfilled.

She figured out that his position was roughly to the southeast, and she stood up and pushed open the window to look at the forest farm from above.

Li Xiruo stood in front of the window, and suddenly remembered what Huaichun said when he went to find Lin Rong today, it seemed that he was looking for something in the forest farm tonight, Li Xiruo sank her eyebrows, she didn't know what kind of mood she was holding, she didn't tell Dao Yan about it, but went to the forest farm alone.

At this time, it was already completely dark, and the forest branches in the forest farm were swaying in the cold wind, Li Xiruo observed the surrounding environment with a flashlight, and looked at the ground from time to time to see if there were fresh footprints.

This forest farm covers a wide area, and if you want to find someone, it is not like looking for a needle in the sea, but it is definitely a blind man fishing in the river.

She followed the way, the cold wind whistling in her ears, and her eyes could only reach the place where there was light, and the rest of her senses became sensitive.

Suddenly, she heard the sound of a man stepping on a branch, a sound that she would not have noticed during the day, and it became extremely clear at night, and she immediately shot the flashlight behind her: "Who! ”

The yellow flashlight illuminated a strange and familiar face, Li Xiruo looked at Lin Rong's indifferent face, reached out and hit the flashlight light in his hand at her face, and said to her: "Shouldn't I ask you this sentence?" ”

Li Xiruo explained indifferently: "There is a companion who has disappeared here, and I came here to look for him?" ”

Lin Rong approached him step by step: "What companion needs to come to find him in the middle of the night, and who is the person who came to make trouble and disappeared in the middle of the night?" ”

Li Xiruo looked up into his eyes and didn't speak, but Lin Rong took the lead in turning his eyes away, removed the flashlight, and shot it to the left: "Go down this road, you can go back, what kind of companion of yours, I will help you find it." ”

Li Xiruo didn't answer, nor did he move, but said: "I heard them say that you had a serious illness before, and because you had no money, you were lying at home and survived." ”

Lin Rong pursed his lips, was silent for a long time, and replied, "Yes." ”

Li Xiruo smiled: "Then it's better to tell me the secret, if I have this disease next time, don't go to the hospital to see if I can get better." ”

Lin Rong frowned, and his tone was a little stern: "How can anyone curse themselves for being sick?" ”

"It's that people get sick, don't you think it's strange that you're good?"

Listening to Li Xiruo's inquiry, Lin Rong didn't answer, but Li Xiruo found that there was a light in front of her, she immediately turned off the flashlight, and helped Lin Rong turn it off by the way, and the two hid behind the big tree together.

The surroundings fell into darkness, Li Xiruo felt Lin Rongqing's breathing coming continuously, and a beam of light hit the tree next to them, and someone muttered there: "Strange, I just saw someone, why is it gone now, forget it, no matter, it's important to find something." ”

As he spoke, he immediately turned around and left, Li Xiruo came out from behind the tree and saw that this person was actually Qian Mansheng.

Waiting for him to go farther, Lin Rong said behind him: "Why are we hiding, isn't what you are looking for is the person just now?" ”

Li Xiruo raised her eyebrows: "How do you know that I am looking for him?" ”

"You are the only foreigner who enters the village, and he is not local at first glance. You haven't answered me yet, what are you hiding, since you want to find him and find someone, you should go back. ”

Li Xiruo looked at the figure of Qian Mansheng in front of him and said, "I wasn't looking for him, it was the box in his hand, but I have changed my mind now, and seeing where he goes can better satisfy my curiosity." ”

As she spoke, she was about to move forward, but Lin Rong grabbed her, made a little effort in her hand, and looked at her seriously and said, "You should go back." ”

Li Xiruo looked into his eyes: "Why do you keep letting me go back, is there any secret in this forest farm." ”

Lin Rong just said, "This is not the place you should be. ”

"Lin Rong, how do you talk to the little girl?"

Secretly, a man about thirty years old came out, neatly dressed, of medium stature, and although he had a kind smile on his face, Li Xiruo felt uncomfortable when he looked at it.

And Li Xiruo noticed that although Lin Rong had no expression on his face, his hands were already clenched, and he seemed to be very defensive of the man in front of him.

The man walked over and took the initiative to introduce himself to Li Xiruo: "My name is Feng Yan, and Lin Rong is a colleague." ”

Lin Rong looked at Feng Yan, his face was a little unpleasant, and his tone was stiff: "What are you doing?" ”

Feng Yan grabbed Lin Rong's shoulder: "You forgot, you finished your duty tonight and said that you would go to my house for a drink, I saw that you didn't come, so I came to you, it's interesting enough." ”

Lin Rong shook off his hand and said to Li Xiruo: "Go back immediately." ”

Li Xiruo didn't speak, but Feng Yan said: "Little girl, are you going to find something, we can accompany you to it, otherwise it will be too dangerous for you to be a girl's house on a big night in the forest farm." ”

Li Xiruo squinted, she said that she was looking for something a few words ago, this person had already come, but he didn't show his face until now, and Lin Rong's attitude towards him was also very wrong, this Feng Yan seemed to be a good brother with Lin Rong, but from their eyes, Li Xiruo could see that the two did not have much friendship to talk about.

But she still smiled: "That's right, let's go." ”

Lin Rong's face sank, watched Li Xiruo follow Qian Mansheng's footsteps, glanced at Feng Yan warningly, and followed.

Qian Mansheng flashed a flashlight in front of him, which was a human-shaped guiding light, and the three of them followed silently behind him, but every time Feng Yan wanted to inquire about something, he was prevaricated by Li Xiruo.

Qian Mansheng has been talking to himself on the road, Li Xiruo can't hear what he's talking about, but the posture is like talking to someone, but there is nothing around him, only an old wooden box, can't, the wooden box can also speak.

He finally stopped when he walked to a secluded place, this is a pile of rocks and weeds, Li Xiruo saw the grass and hid, Qian Mansheng looked at the desolation of this place, and asked the box: "That's it?" ”

They didn't hear any answer, but Qian Mansheng got the answer, put down the box, and began to cut off some weeds and stones, and after a while, a big hole appeared, two people wide, but on weekdays, this is a barren place, no one came, and he didn't find this hole, Qian Mansheng went in with the box contentedly: "Jinzi, your grandfather and I are here." ”

Li Xiruo frowned, and when she heard that Qian Mansheng had entered, she immediately rushed up, but saw a lot of wooden stakes under her feet, she measured the length, she should have come to support the entrance of the cave, but now she was in the way by Qian Mansheng, so she pried it off.

Li Xiruo took a flashlight and looked at the cave wall on the outer edge next to it, there were many ores embedded in it, yellow and white.

Lin Rong looked at the things on it and pursed his lips: "I didn't expect there to be a gold mine here." ”

Li Xiruo said: "Isn't the gold mine here all the time, haven't people come to dig it before, not only nothing happened, but also made a windfall, you don't know about it, a local?" ”

This was deliberately made up by Li Xiruo to test him, Lin Rong glanced at her, and said for a while: "Where are you listening nonsense, the gold mine has already collapsed before, this should be another hole made by someone." ”

Li Xiruo listened and didn't speak, and suddenly several bright lights shot in, shooting directly into the eyes of the three of them, Lin Rong blocked in front of Li Xiruo, and saw several figures and them staying together.

It wasn't until the light moved down slightly that Lin Rong saw that these people were all masked with black cloth, and they were all wearing black clothes, so that people couldn't tell who they were.

Li Xiruo looked at the person in the middle, and said to him with a cold look: "Du Shouxin, it's not enough for you to trick us into going to the swamp, what do you want to do now?" ”

Du Shouxin in the middle heard that Li Xiruo recognized him, and immediately panicked, and the people next to him were also at a loss: "Brother Du, what should I do, this girl recognizes you." ”

Du Shouxin patted the man's head, Lin Rong looked at him, there didn't seem to be any surprise, but Feng Yan was deliberately startled: "Ouch, Du Shouxin, when you sit up and start the business of opening a mine privately, I will say how can you be willing to stay in the forest farm during the day and engage in it for a long time, there is a gold mine here." ”

Du Shouxin pulled his black cloth: "What's the matter with you, brothers, arrest them, don't let them escape." ”
