The place we went to is called Requiem Island, why is it called Requiem Island There is a local legend: those who die on land will be under the control of Hades and God after death, and those who die in the sea and on the island will be under the control of the sea - that is Yu Qiang, the legendary god of the sea and the god of wind, is the grandson of the Yellow Emperor.

Requiem Island is a transit point for the dead souls, and all the souls of the dead must pass through here to enter the home of the dead souls, and the locals say that there are often strong winds and waves here, and at this time the ghosts cry like wolves.

Ghosts like yin and suppress yang, and Requiem Island is probably not very suitable for human habitation, and only the edge of the island is inhabited. Requiem Island is Liu Guang's name, in fact, this is an island under the jurisdiction of a certain country, and most of the people on the island are Han people who went to the South Seas.

The island, which has less than 100 households, was built with a large water supply facility and a lookout station, and was abandoned when there was a great domestic and foreign crisis in the country.

Liu Guang stood on a reef with a flashlight and looked through his binoculars at the lush forest above that covered almost the entire mountain, which obviously increased the difficulty for us.

Boss Bi stopped a fisherman who was going to go to the sea to fish and asked, "Hey! Big brother, do you have any guides, we want to hurry into the mountains. ”

"No, we are the only ones who can go in Orion, and we were taken away by a team of people who came before, and we were given a lot of red tickets."

When Liu Guang heard that there was still a group of people, his face immediately sank, but he didn't say anything.

Boss Bi patted the man on the shoulder and said, "Big brother, you see you said earlier, money is easy to do, we can talk to you a little bit when we get to the place, let's give a deposit first." ”

"You ...... You guys...... Not here for development? The fisherman was surprised and asked, "Is there any treasure buried in this barren mountain and wilderness?" ”

Liu Guang glared at Boss Bi, walked over and said to the fisherman, "Cooperate, I won't treat you badly." ”

The fisherman didn't give face at all, shook his head and said, "No, no, I said no." ”

Liu Guang looked around, there was no one but us, he touched his pocket, and suddenly pulled out a pistol and pointed it at the fisherman. Seeing the fisherman like that, he was almost scared to pee, so he quickly knelt down and said that he was old and young.

Liu Guang smiled and pointed his pistol at the fisherman's head. "I don't want to hear any of that, I just want to know about you...... To cooperate or not. ”

"I cooperate, I cooperate, don't joke with your head."

Liu Guang nodded with satisfaction, gestured to his subordinates, and one of his subordinates handed the fisherman a wad of banknotes. Liu Guang played with the pistol with his left hand and said, "This is the difference between cooperation and non-cooperation, you understand?" ”

When the fisherman heard this, he nodded hurriedly, quickly put on a smile, and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, let's go to our village to rest and rest first!" We'll leave early tomorrow morning, rest assured! Isn't it easy for you to get the treasure? ”

We also felt that it was getting late and it was not good to get on the road at this time, so we decided to stay in the village first. The fisherman told us on the way why they were afraid to go into the forest. This forest is very weird, it looks so big, but it is easy to get lost inside. Legend has it that there are evil spirits, and even the bravest hunters dare not just jump around in them.

Of course, it is not excluded that some people bring outsiders into the mountains and forests for money. The fisherman told us that Requiem Island is a very remote place, and it is not on international routes, and it is rare to see ships more than ten tons on this island, and only a large ship carrying all kinds of necessities comes a month.

But for some reason, it doesn't matter if people don't come in the past few decades, it's on a large scale. Sometimes it's thirty or forty, sometimes it's hundreds. Of course, the excuse is pretty much the same, it's travel! Adventure! Investigation!

However, outsiders are a bit miserable, and the people who enter the mountains and forests have basically lost their traces. Many of the hundreds of people who escaped could be counted on one hand, and these lucky ones would not be able to hold the boat to pick them up. Many people got some strange illness and died in the village.

This incident once alarmed the international community because an expedition had disappeared inside. The fisherman described to us that there were quite a few people in the rescue team that time, including golden-haired foreigners and honest Han Chinese.

Who knows, even these rescue and search teams can't deal with this forest. The fisherman was in his forties at the time, and once he came out of his home and saw a group of rescue teams coming out of the mountains and forests in a panic, carrying some stretchers, the fisherman approached and found that the dead were all dressed in the clothes of the rescue team, and their bodies were covered with blood, and there were not a few people with broken arms and legs. The rescue team failed to find the missing man, but they suffered heavy losses.

In the end, it was the countries that put the matter under control, and when they withdrew, they gave them a lot of hush money. So there was no follow-up.

I walked and listened, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, all the way Boss Bi was there asking questions, and Liu Guang, who was most concerned about this operation, followed behind, almost without saying a word. When did Liu Guang become Boss Bi's little follower? I looked at Liu Guang with his brows furrowed, not knowing what he was thinking.

We walked along the trail and soon entered the village, where there seemed to be some kind of activity being held at this time, and people gathered in an open space, and the cheers of Wuyang and Wuyang seemed to be a theatrical performance.

"What's going on? Big brother," Boss Bi asked, "what are the people in your village doing?" Jumping big rope? ”

"Oh, this is that Li Ergou. He's a shadow puppeteer. ”

Shadow puppetry is one of the earliest theatrical dramas in China, mainly popular in Shaanxi, China, and some northern regions. It is made of donkey skin, cowhide and sheepskin scraped, traced, carved, colored, ironed, oiled and embellished. Under the manipulation of the artist, the "shadow man" is reflected on the white curtain by the light transmission, and with the accompaniment of musical instruments and chorus, it becomes an artistic image of "recounting the eternal events in one mouth, and dancing millions of soldiers with both hands".

"This thing is very rare now," Boss Bi came up again, rubbing his hands and said, "I heard that shadow puppetry is listed as a national intangible cultural heritage." There aren't many people who know this.,I didn't expect to be able to give me a paragraph here.,Childhood memories! ”

"Let's go over and see." Liu Guang waved his hand, and the twenty or so subordinates retreated, otherwise we didn't look like we were here to see a shadow puppet show, but like we were here to smash the scene.

We walked over and stood at the edge of the crowd to watch a man play shadow puppetry. The content is that Sun Wukong fights the white bone spirit three times, after all, it is a shadow puppet, mainly vivid and simple. If he is asked to play Harry Potter, I'm afraid he won't be able to play anything.

At this time, Wang Ziyue quietly pushed me and said with her lips: "This shadow puppet is a bit strange, be careful." "I listened and stood on tiptoe to see, people are normal! What's weird?

The man named Li Ergou who was playing shadow puppets glanced at us and smiled at us. Suddenly, the content of the shadow puppet suddenly changed greatly, and the three apprentices who had the upper hand were all beaten to death by the white bone spirits, and Tang Seng was eaten.

I was stunned by a short play, but the surrounding villagers applauded again and again, it was really a long time to see. Isn't this shadow puppet trickster having a hole in his brain, no! The whole village has a hole in their heads.

The three dozen white bone spirits were the last shadow puppet show of the day, and at this time, the villagers also left one after another. Liu Guang threw away the cigarette butt in his hand and walked towards Li Ergou.

"Hello, this last shadow puppet is wonderful! It's a surprise. ”

Li Ergou didn't raise his head, kept holding the shadow puppet in his hand, and replied: "What's so strange about this?" I've been acting like this for decades. ”

Boss Bi smacked his lips and said, "Oh? Do you have a grudge against Sun Wukong? Isn't it a dance drama when the three apprentices died? If you want to put it on the mainland, don't want it. My buddies aren't happy, and I can't stop you if you smash it. "I know that Boss Bi is a drama ticket, and he must be angry for such an acting.

"This is Requiem Island, not the mainland." Li Ergou raised his head and said lightly.

While a few of them were arguing again, Wang Ziyue and I went around to the other side of the shadow puppet, and Wang Ziyue took advantage of Li Ergou's inattention, picked up a shadow puppet figure, touched it with his hand, and gently said, "Ah! "Yes.

I asked her what was wrong, she shook her head and made me a lip shape, and I pondered for a long time before I realized that the words were - human skin.
