After a tiring day's travel, everyone didn't know how fragrant it was, and when they woke up, they felt crispy in their joints.

Mengli and they hurriedly ate breakfast, brought some dry food and set off, the eldest sister was very enthusiastic, called a baby in his village to take them over, walked for more than two hours on the mountain road, the bare-ass child pointed ahead: "That's it!" ”

Wu Xie looked at it, sure enough, it was obvious that the ravine in front of them was washed out by the mudslide, they were now standing between one mountain range and another, this canyon is very long, it should be a river in the rainy season, but it is a mud and stone rush, and in addition to the drought in the past few months, there is a shallow stream in the middle.

The mountains on both sides are too steep for people to walk on, and the river in front of them has been blocked by rocks that have collapsed from the mountains.

Wu Xie stretched out his hand and patted the head of the bare-ass baby, and said to him, "Go back and play, help me thank your sister!" ”

Nawa stretched out his hand: "Come to Zhang Fifty!" ”

At first, Wu Xie was stunned, but then he knew what the child wanted, so Wu Xie stared at the child with big eyes.

Mengli took out a hundred yuan and gave it to the child, and said in a calm voice, "Let's go!" ”

"Thank you, pretty sister!" The child smiled at her and ran back in a hurry.

The third uncle laughed when he saw it, and Wu Xie reacted and smiled awkwardly: "Now the kid in this mountain is also such a philistine." ”

"People die for birds-" Pan Zi read, and the third uncle kicked him: "Are you educated?" Die for the birds, die for the birds! ”

Seeing them like this, Mengli smiled and didn't say anything.

Then, they started to climb without saying a word, the stone was not loose, and after a while they turned over, not as terrible as the big sister said, but I didn't see the heads she said, behind the slope was a canyon at the beginning, and it was slowly full of trees in the back, and in the distance, it was a dense forest, and I don't know how such an ecology came about.

At this time, they saw that in the canyon below the collapsed slope, there was an old man fetching water, Wu Xie took a closer look, and said in his heart: Damn, isn't it the dead old man who led us into the cave!

The old man saw them suddenly, fell into the brook in fright, and then got up and ran.

Pan Zi scolded with a smile: "Tell you to run." He took out his short gun and shot it in the sand of the old man's front feet, the old man jumped up in fright, and ran back, Pan Zi fired three shots in a row, each shot on his footprints, the old man was also clever, and when he saw that the other party was playing with him, he knew that he couldn't run away. One plopped and fell to his knees.

A few people ran downhill, and the old man kowtowed to them: "Grandpa spares his life, my old man really has no choice, so I hit the attention of a few grandfathers, but I didn't expect a few grandfathers to be like fairy-like characters, this time they really have eyes and don't know Mount Tai!" He said a handful of snot and a handful of tears.

The third uncle asked him: "What, I see that you are full of energy, what can't you do?" ”

"You'd better be honest, we have a professional doctor here!" Wu Xie threatened beside him, but he didn't have any momentum at all.

The little brother and Mengli stood quietly next to them, but the little brother was indeed standing there quietly, but Mengli was there to observe Chen Chengcheng with his spare eyes.

Chen Chengcheng seemed to feel her gaze, pretending to be casual, then turned his head to look at her, and showed a smirk at her: "Hey, beauty!" ”

Mengli nodded at her, and then turned her head to look at the old man, not letting Chen Chengcheng notice anything abnormal.

"To tell you the truth, I'm really sick in this body, don't look at me as if I'm very tough, in fact, I have to take several patches of medicine every day, you see, I don't fetch water to decoction medicine." He gestured to the water cylinder on the side.

Along the way, Wu Xie learned a lot of sinister people's hearts, and this old man just taught him another lesson.

"Let me ask you, why did you disappear in that cave all of a sudden, you old ghost?" Panzi asked.

"If I say it, a few grandfathers won't kill me?" The old man looked at us.

"Don't worry, it's a legal society now," said the third uncle, "and be lenient in confession and strict in resistance." ”

"Yes, yes, I confess," said the old man, "it is not a big deal, and you don't look at the hole as if it were a straight hole, but there are many holes in the top of the cave, and those holes are very secret, and if you don't look for them, you won't find them at all, so I'll get up and dig into the hole while a few of you are not paying attention." As soon as your boat leaves, I will come out again, and when the donkey Dan Dan hears my whistle, he will pull a wooden basin over, and I will go out like this, and after the matter is done, the boatman Lu Lao Er will give me my share, but in fact, I don't take much. ”

He suddenly thought of something: "By the way, what about Lu Er?" It must have been planted in the hands of a few masters. ”

Pan Zi made a gesture to kill his head: "I have sent him to report." ”

The old man was stunned for a moment, and then slapped his thigh: "It's good to die, in fact, I don't want to do that thing, then Lu Lao Er said that if I don't do it, even I will do it together, everyone, you see that I can't help it, just let me go." ”

"You don't come here much," said the third uncle, "where do you live, how do you fetch water here?" ”

"I live there," the old man pointed to a cave on the side, "Look at me, an old man, I have no land, my son died early, and I have no house to live in, and now I am waiting to die, pitiful!" ”

"Then you're familiar with this area, it's just right, if we want to let you go, you can take us somewhere." As soon as the third uncle pointed to the forest, the old man's face suddenly changed in fright, "My grandfather! Dare you to fight backwards! You can't fall that fight! There's a youkai in there! ”

As soon as Wu Xie heard it, he knew that there was a play, and this old man must know something.

The third uncle asked him, "What, have you seen it?" ”

"Heck, a few years ago, I also took a team of people there, saying that it was going to archaeology, and I saw that it was going to the inverted bucket, but these guys are different from the others. The little thieves I saw before were all down when they saw the tomb, that group of people, don't hide it from you, that bearing, at a glance, is not an ordinary person, they don't even look at these tombs next to them, they just said that they want to enter this ravine, at that time I went to that place alone in our village, those people were arrogant, and gave me ten big tickets at once, I saw this money and was not angry, took them into this forest, kept walking, until I had been to that place before, they still had to go forward, I would not be grinning! You said you couldn't buy my life with ten big tickets! They said to give me another 10, and I said I would not do anything if I gave me another 100, and they turned their heads and put guns to my head, and they had no choice but to take them inside. ”

He scratched his head and continued: "Then they talked about the place, and these people were happy, and then they were there to make something, and what they said was right down here, and I drank too much that night, and we found a place to pitch a tent, and I went to sleep and I was unconscious, but when I woke up, and guess what, all these people were gone, and the things were still there, and the fire was not extinguished." I was scared, so I called everywhere, but after calling for a long time and no one paid attention to me, I felt that something was wrong, and I thought that they were not there anyway, so I would slip away, so I ran away. ”

The old man, as if recalling what terrible sight he saw, narrowed his eyes and said, "I have only run a few steps, I heard someone call me, and for the first time, I saw a woman from their team waving at me again, and I was about to scold, why was there no one who ran early in the morning, and suddenly I saw a big tree behind her, and I looked at the tree, and I saw that the tree was densely hung with dead people, and my eyes burst out, and I was so frightened that the urine came out, and I ran back to the village for a day and a night." You say, this must be a dryad, if it weren't for the old man and I grew up eating solid meat, I must have been hooked by this monster. ”

Mengli smiled, what this old man said was half-true and half-false, and he couldn't believe it all.

The third uncle sighed: "You are really a solid meat eater!" Then he waved his hand. Pan Zi willingly tied up this old guy, and with him leading the way, he could save a lot of things.

The old man was a hundred unwilling, and there was no way, according to him, it would take a day to get to the place he said, Mengli and the little brother opened the road in front, and several people sped up their pace, looking at the map as they walked, hoping that with the map and the old man's memory, they could get there before dark.

A few people walked for a long time, and at first they could still speak, but then they felt that their eyes were full of green and green eyes, and they kept yawning and wanted to sleep.

Suddenly, the old man stopped walking.

Pan Zi scolded: "What tricks are you playing? The old man looked at the bushes on the side, and his voice trembled: "So, what is that?" ”
