Chapter 62: Skinny

Chu Sheng pushed the cart in front, Mu Ziqi followed, and the two walked towards the set with a smile and a smile.

After a while, they arrived at the market, and they found a place, put the pork on the table, and waited for the buyer, because the pork was good, and it was quickly sold out.

They had been hanging out at the market for nearly noon and came back.

After returning home, Chu Sheng handed over the money from the sale to the old man, and the two returned home.

I didn't sit at home for long, a person came in outside, this person seemed to be running, Mu Ziqi looked at it, this person was quite familiar, and after thinking about it, I saw it on the market, when they were selling meat, he was still standing next to him for a while, and he greeted Chu Sheng at that time, it turned out that he was Chu Sheng's neighbor.

As soon as he entered the door, he said to Chu Sheng: "Chu Sheng, when I was at the market just now, I saw that the person who bought your meat seemed to have some clues in his hand. “

When Chu Sheng heard this, his face changed greatly, and he immediately couldn't sit still, he hurriedly asked the neighbor: "Where is that person, wait for me to find him!" ”

With that, he hurriedly ran out of the door, and Mu Ziqi also followed.

The two of them returned to Jishang after a while.

At this time, the set had already dispersed, and only a few people were packing up their things.

Chu Sheng asked them where the person who bought the meat was and where he went.

But they didn't know each other.

When Chu Sheng heard this, he was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.

Mu Ziqi was calmer than him, he carefully observed this set, and found that there were six roads leading here, that is, as long as he followed these roads, he might be able to find that person.

He told Chu Sheng what he thought, and the two of them went to look for it separately, and if they couldn't find it, they would return here and wait, so that as long as they were three times, they could find all six roads, and wouldn't there be a general result.

As soon as Chu Sheng heard it, it was a good idea, so he agreed.

Mu Ziqi separated from Chu Sheng and walked down one of the roads.

Here is a mountain road, there are woods on both sides, the deeper the forest goes, walking and walking, Mu Ziqi hesitated, he regretted that he should not choose this road, because after all, he is a foreigner, he is not very familiar with the mountain road here, I don't know what is here, or who can meet, once there are any wolves, insects, tigers and leopards and other animals attack, their lives are worried, if there is no beast, but if you meet a bad person, although you are penniless, but the other party does not know your details, once they are robbed, But it is dangerous, newspapers and television often report this kind of news, and there are many cases of bad guys harming the parties without grabbing their property.

Thinking like this, I couldn't help but slow down.

He pondered in his heart, this Chu Sheng is too, there are rice grains, it is not his own meat, it is sold for others, and the responsibility for the accident should not be borne by himself.

What's more, during this period, I didn't make a profit, and I didn't have a half-dime relationship with myself.

Thinking about it this way, and looking at the road ahead, it is becoming more and more rugged, with high mountains and dense forests, which is really a treacherous place.

Simply, he sat down, not wanting to go any further.

After staying for a while, he thought that if Chu Sheng couldn't find that person, he should also return to the set, so he stood up and walked back.

However, when I returned to the set, it was empty.

It turned out that Chu Sheng hadn't come back yet.

Mu Ziqi thought to himself, he must have been looking for a long time but didn't find it, Chu Sheng was unwilling, and continued to walk forward, expecting to meet him.

It was wrong just now, the two of them should agree on the distance to find it, and when will they find it?

However, it didn't take much time for Chu Sheng to run back panting, and when he saw Mu Ziqi, Chu Sheng hurriedly asked, "Did you find it?" ”

Mu Ziqi shook his head.

"Then look for it again!"

As he spoke, he ran to another road, looked back at Mu Ziqi, and found that he hadn't moved, so he shouted loudly: "Big brother, hurry up!" ”

Mu Ziqi couldn't, so he had to walk in the opposite direction to him.

It was getting dark.

This road is different from the road of Fangcai, there are no mountains and dense forests, it is very flat, but it is endless, looking at it, there is only a village far away, if you go to that place, and then come back, it will take half a day, Mu Ziqi hesitated again, at this time, a person came in front, Mu Ziqi had an idea, and hurriedly stepped forward to inquire, have you ever seen a person with pork in his hand?

The man shook his head.

Mu Ziqi was happy in his heart, isn't this over, I don't need to run again.

So, he returned, naturally, Chu Sheng did not come back, in order to seize the time, he walked to another road.

He had thought that this road would be as bad as the previous two, but when he had gone on a short time, a large canyon appeared on the side, and the valley was very deep and long, and at this time, there was a man standing in front of him, who looked very strange, with a pointed head, and no hair on the top of his head, and his body was naked, and he only wore a strip of cloth around his waist to cover his shame, and he was barefoot.

It was originally a trail with steep cliffs on the left and a canyon on the right.

If he goes to that station, if he doesn't move the place, he will really be a husband, and no one will be able to pass.

When Mu Ziqi saw this formation, he felt stunned and didn't want to move forward.

At this moment, I only heard a voice ringing in my ears, and someone asked myself, "Are you looking for the person who bought meat?" ”

The voice was very shrill and piercing, as if someone was grinding an iron pot, and he saw that the man's mouth was open and closed, and he knew that it was this person who was asking.

Mu Ziqi felt furious in his heart, what kind of person is this, why do you think he is like a little ghost in the temple.

The man's eyes were big, and his gaze was gloomy.

Mu Ziqi wanted to turn around and turn back, but the man asked sharply again, and Mu Ziqi had to nod.

"In that case, why do you want to leave, why don't you hurry up and look for it?" The man stared at him with a sinister gaze that seemed to pierce his heart.

This voice came out, as if giving him an order, Mu Ziqi felt that his legs were not growing on his body, and he walked forward involuntarily.

"Hey," the man was satisfied, and laughed, his laughter was very special, which reminded him of the sound of the fire grasshopper, although it was not that loud, but this laughter had an abnormal penetrating power, Mu Ziqi felt that it would burrow into his body at once, piercing into the heart, and only felt a tremor in his internal organs.

Whether he was a human or a ghost, Mu Ziqi didn't want to leave, but, as if someone was holding him, his feet moved quickly, and he soon approached that person.

At this time, the sound of the individual's feet is also very abnormal, it does not sound like his feet are stepping on the dirt, but like two stones are ramming the ground in turn, making a "knock" sound.

Mu Ziqi suddenly had goosebumps all over his body, he began to get chills, and his teeth kept fighting up and down, "deserved" sound.

He tried to control it, not to let the man hear, but the man laughed again, as if trying to burrow into his heart, and stared at him without blinking: "Why are you doing this?" “

Mu Ziqi wanted to speak, but his teeth "got it" louder, making him unable to say a word.

Seeing that he didn't answer, the man immediately stopped, turned around, and stretched out his hand, as soon as Mu Ziqi saw it, his legs and feet immediately became weak, and he saw that where was the hand, it was simply a monkey's claw, with thin black hair on it, skinny, and green tendons.

The fingertips were long, crooked, and pointy, like five daggers, stabbing into his mouth, Mu Ziqi was frightened, he wanted to scream, but there seemed to be something blocked in his throat, and he couldn't spit out a word with all his strength. Instead, he suffocated himself so much that his chest swelled and exploded.

At this time, the "five daggers" trembled and approached him, and the man was about to stretch forward, but unexpectedly, he seemed to step on something, and he himself leaned back and staggered a few steps before he did not fall.

Mu Ziqi suddenly felt some strength under his feet at this time, and immediately turned around and ran back, but after running a few steps, his neck was strangled and dragged back, Mu Ziqi only felt dizzy, and a "crooked lamp" fell to the ground.

As mentioned earlier, this road is a cliff on one side and a deep valley on the other, which is very narrow.

Mu Ziqi glanced below, and saw that the valley was a dense forest at the bottom, and if it fell, it would be crushed.

He closed his eyes in despair......

In a panic, he felt that his head had touched something all of a sudden, and suddenly, he didn't know anything.

When he woke up, he found himself lying on a tree, looked around again, and couldn't help but gasp.

It turned out that the tree was growing on top of a steep cliff, and below it was still a bottomless canyon, and from time to time the whispers of beasts and birds echoed in the endless canyon.

Mu Ziqi wanted to move, but he didn't want to, but there was a sudden sound on the cliff, and when he saw it, his heart couldn't help but tighten immediately.

It turned out that under his own pressure, the soil of the roots of the tree began to loosen, and a lot of dirt and stones fell at once.

Mu Ziqi was so frightened that he didn't dare to move anymore.

He looked up tremblingly, but there was nothing but a thick patch of grass above it.

What can I do?

Mu Ziqi looked at the tree root in horror, and at this time, he became more and more panicked, because the tree root could no longer bear the weight of his body, and gradually, it began to loosen, and little by little, the soil fell more and more.

Mu Ziqi hurriedly looked down, expecting that there would be other trees underneath to take him over, but he was desperate, because as far as the eye could see, there was nothing but grass and grass.

The tree began to tilt downward, the roots made a "click" sound, began to break, and finally, only a "bang" sound was heard, Mu Ziqi saw that the roots of the tree were peeled off from the cliff with the soil and stones, Mu Ziqi's body sank, and fell to the bottom of the valley with the tree!
