I took a few sips of water and took a few breaths, and I felt better, but I could still feel the evil aura emanating from this col, and judging from what I had just encountered, this aura must have something to do with the person who choked my neck.

"Zimu, what happened just now?" Lao Lin Tou asked with concern, I know that the scene just now must have scared Lao Lin Tou, and if he didn't give him an explanation, he would definitely not finish, but now is not the time to speak.

"Master, this is not the place to talk, let's get out of here first!" I stood up as I spoke.

"Leave? We've just arrived! Lao Lin Tou looked incomprehensible.

"Master, I've seen what I want to see, if there is anything to say, let's go out first, and then let's talk about it." I couldn't help but pull the old forest head and walked out, this place is too evil, I can't calm down and think here.

Eventually, we returned to the forest from the col, and I chose a place where there was no snow and spread the leather mattress I had brought from the lookout on the ground.

Seeing this, the old woodman also put down his firecracker, found some branches around that were not too wet, and then made a fire.

During the busy time of the old forest, I brushed my thoughts a little.

Although the scene just now, in my own experience, lasted for a long time, but in terms of specific time, it was only a few minutes, and in these minutes, I experienced death and life, and the force that appeared in it terrified me even more.

First of all, it is the force that appeared later, this power I encountered at the bottom of Poyang Lake and in the mountain village last time, from the contact three times and twice, this force seems to be helping me, and today it saved my life, this power is extremely powerful, and even the person who was going to strangle me just now was very scared when he saw it.

I wondered, is this really the so-called God, or really the Creator? But why did he choose to be on my side? From the Creator's point of view, aren't all beings equal?

The other force is the one who wants to strangle me.

To be sure, all the bad feelings I felt when I saw the col were because of him, but who was he? Why is it so scented? Also, why is he in my ancestral grave? When my grandmother chose to meet my great-grandfather here, was it because of him?

The strangest thing is that I seem to have seen this man in the prime of life somewhere, but I can't remember it all at once.

Both of these forces are very powerful, and I can clearly sense that they are not from the human world.

Lao Lin Tou set up the pot, boiled the dried meat and rice balls we brought with snow water, and said while stirring them with a spoon, "Can you talk about it now?" What the hell just happened? ”

To be honest, I still have lingering palpitations, but my curiosity has overshadowed my fear, and the old Lin Tou's question once again brought me into the scene just now.

"As soon as I entered, I felt an evil aura in it, and then I felt that someone had choked my throat, and I thought I was going to die, but suddenly a force appeared and scared away the person who choked my neck, and I was relieved."

"The breath of evil? Why didn't I feel it? The old forest man twisted his head towards the col and asked puzzledly.

"I also think it's strange, I can't describe this feeling, I just feel that there is something unclean in that col, and now that I am so far away, I still feel this way."

"Wait, you just said that someone grabbed you by the throat, isn't it like Dongergou? Could it be a corpse rotting fungus? ”

I shook my head, "That's what I thought, but if it's a corpse rotting fungus, then why didn't you get it?" So I don't think so, it should be something else. ”

"The power you are talking about," the old Lin Tou continued, "can you be more specific?" Is it a person or what? ”

"I can't describe this, he gives me the feeling that you can treat him as anything, you can think of him as a human, you can think of him as an ant, you can even think of him as mud, a branch, a snowflake, in short, he is what you feel he is."

After hearing this, the old Lin Tou lowered his head and groaned, it seemed that with his experience, he could not explain what happened to me.

When eating, Lao Lin Tou didn't seem to give up, he wiped a handful of stubble, and asked, "You said that your grandmother came back that year, is it because of the evil aura you said?" ”

"I think so, but why?"

"Hehe, can you go back and ask?"

"Hey, Master, you don't know, although my grandmother didn't say it to me, she has a very strange temper, and she won't tell me."

"But she's the only one alive in the know, and if she doesn't say it, you'll never know why."

I understand what Lao Lin Tou said, my great-grandfather passed away, and now only my grandmother knows about things here, I think even if my grandmother doesn't say it, I can't help but ask.

"Okay, I'll ask her when I get back to the provincial capital. By the way, Master, haven't you heard anything strange happening here? Anything goes, maybe there's a clue to it! ”

Old Lin Tou shook his head, "I really don't have this, the main reason is that this place is too old, haven't you noticed that there are not even footprints around here?" Don't say it's me, few of the people on our farm have an impression of this place! ”

I'm a little disappointed, although Lao Lin Tou is not very old, but he is about the same as my grandfather, plus he lives on the farm all the year round, almost never goes out, and he knows almost everyone in the field, so he can be regarded as Bai Xiaosheng of our farm, if he doesn't know, then there are really few people in our field who know.

After we finished eating, we had a few more conversations, and then decided to go back.

The way back was mostly uphill, so it was more strenuous than when we came, and by the time we got back to the lookout, it was already dark.

When passing by the reservoir, I inadvertently looked in the direction of Dongergou, and it was this look that immediately reminded me of where I had seen that person!

Actually, I haven't seen this person with my own eyes, but I heard it from my mother's mouth, and she said that after shooting the murderer, my grandfather once came here alone in the dark, and that night, my grandfather was choked by the neck, and later in his account, my mother heard him mention a man in the prime of life in a strange costume.

I don't know why, but I think the person my grandfather saw was the same person I saw today.

Suddenly, I felt like I had fallen into a trap that might have been laid hundreds of years ago, and I, Qiu Yan, and even Chen Fangyuan and Long were all just small pawns in this trap.

On the way back to the lookout, my heart was beating violently, and I tried my best to combine all the clues, Wushan Tusi, my grandmother, Chen Fangyuan, the middle-aged man who pinched my neck, etc., but there were too many of these things, and my brain alone was not enough.

I'm thinking, it's time to go back to the provincial capital, and I have to tell Qiu Yan about the situation here as soon as possible, so that she can also help me analyze it.

"What are you thinking? The soul is not gone! The old Lin man behind me probably saw that I was distracted, and urged from behind.

Lao Lin Tou, the descendant of a robber, I don't know if his ancestors were also the arrangers of this trap, maybe they were just one of the pawns, a year ago, I was like him, I looked at Qiu Yan's affairs as a bystander, but a year later, I realized that I was also a participant in the whole thing.

I glanced back at the old Lin Tou, and I didn't know whether I envied him or pitied him.

After a day's journey, I returned to the lookout, I was soft, I ate a little, and after boiling water and taking a shower, I went to bed early.

Old Lin Tou was probably tired too, and we didn't talk much tonight, and I fell asleep after lying in bed for a while.

The next day, I heard the old forest head calling me in a daze, but as soon as I opened my eyes, I felt weak.

I had expected this for a long time, and I was prepared when I left my grandmother's house.

"Master!" I exclaimed weakly, "I have boiled medicine in that bag, please help me get a bottle." ”

The medicine was boiled by Huang Yueling before I left the provincial capital, I brought a total of six bottles, and I drank four bottles at home in the past few days, and now there are two bottles left.

Lao Lin Tou took out a bottle of medicine from his bag, unscrewed the lid and fed it to me.

"I said He Zimu, what have you done in the past year? Why did you come back with all kinds of secrets and drink medicine when you were sick? I don't think you'd better go out, just follow me on this mountain, although you have less money and a boring life, at least you won't lose your life! Old Lintou's face was full of worry.

"Master, I'm fine, I'll be fine after drinking the medicine."

"Hey," the old man sighed heavily, "I said earlier, why do the living always mix with the dead?" If you throw your life outside, your mother won't have to cry to death! ”

After hearing this, I quickly grabbed Lao Lintou's hand, "Master, don't tell my family about my illness or yesterday's incident, no, don't say anything to anyone, not even your family, you promise me!" ”

Lao Lin Tou pushed my hand away, "Don't worry, this is not a good thing, you just begged me to say that I don't want to say it yet!" ”

"Master, you know me, if this matter only involves me alone, then I will definitely listen to you and stop going out, but now this matter has been involved too widely, even if I don't care about other people, Qiu Yan I have to take care of it!"

When Lao Lin heard this, he glanced at me and said, "Speaking of this Qiu Yan, tell me honestly, do you have a crush on others?" ”

"Hehe, Master, at home I listened to my mother talk about this, I came to you just to ask for purity, I beg you not to be like my mother, okay?"

"Yo yo yo, don't ask yet, what's the matter, shy? Actually, I don't mean anything else when I ask this, this Qiu Yan looks quite scheming, don't be sold by her! ”

"Okay, Master, I have a number, I'm quite tired now, just let me rest and rest!"

"Okay, you rest, I'm outside, call me if there's anything!" After speaking, the old Lin Tou walked out of the house.

After Lao Lintou went out, I immediately took out my mobile phone and dialed Qiu Yan's number.

The bell rang twice and it was connected.

"Qiu Yan, when are you coming back?" As soon as I got through, I immediately asked.

"What's wrong?"

"I found a little bit here, and I want to tell you, why don't you come back early, I'll wait for you in the provincial capital."

"Are you going back to the provincial capital now?"

"Well, I'm going to go back in the next few days."

"Well, or you don't go back to the provincial capital, just come to Xi'an!"

"Xi'an? Are you in Xi'an? ”

"Yes, I didn't go back at all, I'll come to Xi'an when you go home!"
