Who spread these nursery rhymes, and when did they spread in their village, even the oldest people in the village can't tell clearly, and the old man's father also shouted and sang with the children in the village all over the village when he was young.

However, this nursery rhyme is not shouting and playing, there is really a thing, at the beginning of every month, there will be a big moon in the sky, you really can't go out that night, whoever goes out will have an accident, first will become a madman, running all over the mountains, after a few days, drill the house will no longer come out, after half a month, you will die a whimper. In their village, no one who went out on the tenth night of the first month had ever lived for three months, and because of this, several people had already died in their village.

Later, there were people in the village who did not believe in evil, and went out with the big moon on the night of the first ten months, but they were not spared, and the next day they went crazy, and their family went to the outside of the mountain to find a gentleman to come and see, and the gentleman said after reading it, he was scared out of the soul by something, and it was okay to summon the soul back.

That night, Mr. did a ritual to summon the soul, but the soul did not come back, and the gentleman pinched his fingers, saying that the soul was detained by something and could not be brought back, unless he found the thing, discussed with the thing, and asked him to put the soul back.

The next night, the gentleman did another ritual to find the thing, but he did it twice in a row, but he didn't find anything, so he told the family that it seemed that he could only wait until the tenth night of the first lunar month, and he would go out in person.

Mr. stayed in the village, and waited until the night of the tenth day of the new year, when Mr. went out with the magic weapon, but after going out, he never came back, nor did he go back to his own house, where did he go, no one knows, the world has evaporated.

Hearing the old man say this, the master couldn't help frowning, remembering what the five guys said that they had no quarrel with the world and no offense with mortals, but how to explain these nursery rhymes, and how to explain those who lost their souls and died in the village?

The nursery rhyme should be spread by those five guys, this is a warning, those who don't listen to the warning, they will be killed, is this what they say, no quarrel with the world, no offense in autumn? That night, if he hadn't defeated the Golden Snake, he would definitely have suffered the same as the dead people in their village, what the hell is the difference between this and the Manchu Tartars' "hair without head"? These beasts don't treat people as human beings at all, they only treat them as a flock of sheep, whoever is not honest will slaughter them, and in this world, why is this not the case?

Thinking of this, my grandfather's hatred surged, he couldn't control the current world, but to kill a few beasts that plagued people, people were still more than enough. The master regretted it, regretted letting those beasts go.

Nowadays, the people in the old man's village have developed a habit, as long as they don't go out on the tenth night of the first month, they will be safe, but in my grandfather's opinion, the people in the village are struggling to survive and compromise. This matter, in my grandfather's heart, has become a knot.

In a blink of an eye, a few days have passed, and this evening, Xiao Laodao came back with Xiao Chujiu, my grandfather and Xiao Shiyi were very happy, and after waiting for so many days, they finally came back.

Xiao Lao Dao, brought a lot of wine, meat, and food from outside the mountain, called the little old man, and that night, several people ate and drank happily.

The little old man can't drink well, in his own words, the family is poor, for so many years, the number of times he has drunk can be counted on five fingers, and the old man is the first to get drunk, and he leaves the table early and goes to sleep.

When my grandfather saw that there were no outsiders, he told Xiao Laodao in detail about the things in the old man's village and the things he encountered that night.

After listening to Xiao Laodao, his eyes actually lit up, and he told my grandfather, nothing else, the white stone enshrined in the small temple is a rare thing, that thing is rare in the world, and it is priceless.

When my grandfather heard this, Xiao Laodao didn't care about those things that had become fine, but he was so interested in that ordinary white stone, what he was really looking forward to, selling, and shouting about.

Xiao Laodao said, legend in ancient times, there is a kind of white stone, called "reflecting the moon stone", the moonlight shines on the stone, can emit a pale white blue light, if this kind of stone is placed in the courtyard, the reflected moonlight, can illuminate the whole house, it is said that in the Song Dynasty, there was a piece, some people called it "moonstone", said that it fell from the moon stone, however, the stone soon disappeared, not many people have seen it, a hundred years later, another piece appeared, but that piece also disappeared quickly, later, There are rumors of the Moon Reflecting Stone, but no one has really gotten it, and over time, it has become a legend.

According to Xiao Laodao's speculation, the stone that my grandfather saw should be the "Moon Reflecting Stone", after several beasts found the stone, they did the opposite, using the inner Dan essence light to reflect on the stone, creating a fake moon in the sky, and their ultimate purpose was to practice.

When my grandfather heard Xiao Laodao say this, it felt like a fantasy, and Xiao Laodao asked my grandfather, where is that small temple, and can you take him over tomorrow to have a look.

My grandfather, these days are planning to go to the small temple again, a few beasts are running away, but the temple is still there, it is okay to smash the temple to them out of anger, however, my grandfather does not dare to guarantee that the stone is still there, a few beasts should also know that the stone is a treasure, it is impossible not to take it away when leaving.

Early the next morning, my grandfather took Xiao Laodao into the mountain and went straight to the small temple in the mountain, but after looking in the mountain all morning, let alone the small temple, I didn't even find the valley.

At this time, Xiao Laodao asked my grandfather, "Brother, how far is it, it looks like it's time for lunch." ”

My grandfather looked around, the mountains were high and low, a desolate and unfamiliar place, Xiao Laodao asked again: "Shouldn't we be lost?" ”

My grandfather glanced at Xiao Laodao, looked helpless, and said, "When I came here before, it wasn't like this, and the small temple was not too far from their village. ”

Xiao Laodao asked again: "Then why can't you find it?" ”

My grandfather didn't say anything, and looked around again, it seemed that he was really lost, and the surrounding mountains were not at all impressed, but my grandfather was embarrassed to admit it.

Xiao Laodao said: "I think let's stop looking so messily, go back the same way, and wait for lunch, you think about it carefully, let's come over again." ”

The two of them returned the same way, and they walked for more than half an hour, and there were still unfamiliar mountains and criss-crossing in front of them, Xiao Laodao immediately shouted badly, he was really lost, and my grandfather suddenly looked embarrassed.

However, Xiao Laodao is not afraid of getting lost, he is a tomb robber, and he goes in and out of the deep mountains and old forests all day long, and he has experience. He beckoned to my grandfather, first to make a mark on the ground, and then to see where the sun was, and when they came, they were walking west with their backs to the sun, but it was early in the morning, and now it was noon, and the sun was above their heads, and if they wanted to return to the village, they had to go east, so that their right shoulder was facing the sun, and they were facing the east.

The two began to walk towards the east, making marks on the ground while walking, and after walking far, the old man's village appeared in front of them, and the two of them looked at each other and looked at each other, and both of them wondered in their hearts, they had been walking towards the west before, and they had been walking all morning, how could they have returned when they returned, and they had not gone far to come back, could it be that they had been circling around the village all morning?

Back at the old man's house, just in time for lunch, Xiao Laodao said to my grandfather while eating, something is wrong in the morning, we seem to have entered some ecstasy, go again in the afternoon, and bring Eleven and the monkey with you.

After lunch, my grandfather took a nap and nourished their spirits. In the afternoon, with Xiao Shiyi and the ghost monkey, he entered the mountain again.

Xiao Shiyi has yin and yang eyes, the ghost monkey is full of aura, even if there is really any ecstasy array in the mountain, with the two of them here, the problem should not be big, besides, Xiao Shiyi has also been to the small temple once, and he also has an impression of the way there.

After a few people walked out of a distance to the west, Xiao Shiyi pulled my grandfather's clothes from behind, gestured to my grandfather, and said that my grandfather was walking the wrong way, my grandfather raised his finger and pointed to a big tree in front of him, and said to Xiao Shiyi: "Look at the big tree in front, I remember clearly, after walking through the big tree, turn right, turn down is a ditch, and then follow the ditch to the end, it is the mountain depression." ”

Xiao Shiyi shook his head, and gestured at my grandfather again, saying that there was not a single tree in front of him, it was a barren hillside, and the big tree had already walked over, and now he had to return.

My grandfather was stunned for a moment, and then looked ahead, there was obviously a lush tree, and the weeds around the tree were luxuriant, how could it be a barren hillside?

My grandfather glanced at Xiao Laodao, Xiao Laodao was also confused at this time, and my grandfather asked him, "Brother Xiao, what are you seeing?" ”

Xiao Laodao said vigilantly: "What I saw was also a big tree, but I believe in Eleven's eyes, it seems that our brothers are really confused by something." ”

My grandfather frowned, feeling that what he saw in front of him was real, and turned his head to ask the ghost monkey: "Monkey, is there a tree in front of you?" ”

The little ghost monkey hurriedly shook it, raised his paw and pointed behind him, as if it was the same as Xiao Shiyi's meaning, the big tree was behind, and they had already walked over.

Xiao Laodao hurriedly waved his hand, "Let's go, turn around and go back!" ”

This time, Xiao Shiyi led the way in front, and after walking not far, Xiao Shiyi turned a corner to the left, and my grandfather followed him around the corner, and was suddenly stunned, Xiao Laodao was also stunned, and the two of them stopped.

In front of their eyes, a very strange passage appeared, square, full of stone barriers up and down, Xiao Laodao couldn't help but say, "This is the tomb road." ”

My grandfather hurriedly looked at him, the two of them looked at each other again, Xiao Shiyi also stopped in front at this time, and gestured to my grandfather They hurry up, they will arrive soon, Xiao Laodao couldn't help but ask him: "Eleven, where are we now?" ”

Xiao Shiyi gestured and replied: In a ravine, walking through the ravine, there is a small temple in front of you.

Seeing this, my grandfather and Xiao Laodao immediately looked at each other. Thank you for the 100 yuan red envelope from my sister.
