Chapter 31: Overnight Stay

The wind is blowing, and the wind in the mountains is usually very hard, and although it is the summer in June, the mountain wind blows in our faces, and we can't help but shiver.

I sniffled lightly, and I smelled a unique fragrance, still coming from the old man. I smiled and asked the old man that he still wears perfume at this age? The old man smiled and said that this is a unique flower and plant on the mountain, which is dried and ground into powder, and rubbed on the body in summer to prevent mosquito bites.

The first time I heard of such a miraculous thing, it must be better than toilet water, so I shouted that I must put some on myself when I got to my lodgings.

On the way, in order not to look so embarrassed, the old man and I started a gossip without a match.

I asked him if he hadn't gone home to rest, and why he had suddenly gone to Blind Man's Ridge again. The old man said that after returning home with his son, he found that he was always complaining, and he didn't tell you about the human face ape in Tiantai Mountain. I couldn't rest assured that I let my stupid son look after the house at home, and I hurried back, just in time to bump into you being attacked by an ape.

When I heard the old man chopping wood say this, I couldn't help but feel a little moved in my heart. The passers-by who nodded their heads ran back in the middle of the night despite the danger to remind us that this is a feeling that is unimaginable in a big city of steel and concrete. The more the economy develops, the greater the gap between people, the more developed the exchange of information, and the sparse communication between people. Perhaps only in this remote and isolated deep mountain and old forest, the purest affection between people will be awakened.

I think when this trip is over, I must buy something to thank this old man. Pi Bao'er was also very moved when he heard the old man say this, thinking that he had spent the belly of a gentleman with the heart of a villain a few hours ago, and suspected that the old man was plotting against him, so he immediately handed the old man a cigarette and a bow.

Indeed, as the old man said, the road was very long, and it took us about forty minutes to reach the old man's quarters.

We imagined that the old man chopping wood and the demented fool must be crammed into a dilapidated and old thatched hut, but we couldn't believe what we saw when we arrived at our destination.

In a flat and open area on high ground, there are seven or eight decent wooden houses built one after another.

"You, you built it?" Leather Bag couldn't believe her eyes.

The old man nodded embarrassedly, "I have earned such a small family business in my life, and I will build a house with my son when I have nothing to do all my life, but fortunately, the wood in the mountains does not cost money." ”

"Uncle, isn't it just the two of you, what are you doing in so many houses?"

The old man scratched his head embarrassedly, "Didn't I hear outsiders say that it is better to marry a daughter-in-law if there are more houses, I wonder why we can't let our family go out of business." So I got up early with my stupid son and built these eight big houses, how could I go out and inquire again, and people were talking about buildings in the city. There is simply no girl who wants to come to such a ravine where birds don't, let alone marry a fool. ”

We were amused by the old man's stupid persistence, "Uncle, don't worry, when we finish this errand, I will definitely look for you when we go out, and with your character, I will also have to find one for my stupid brother." ”

When the old man heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly said thank you. The stupid big man seemed to understand me, and he came over salivating and shouted at his daughter-in-law, daughter-in-law.

This time, I have a spacious and comfortable room, but I don't have to set up camp. Hungry, we began to bury the pot again, everyone helped the old man to chop wood and put the kitchen busy, the old man seemed very happy, he said that since the house was built, there have never been so many people, today must eat and drink a good meal.

The old man wouldn't let us touch the dry food in our backpacks, saying that he wouldn't save much for the next meal, and turned around and told his stupid son to go to a room to get food. Just like that, the two of them didn't expect the food reserves to be quite abundant, and the fool soon carried out a sack of cured meat from the wooden house, which was enough for dozens of us.

After finishing the meat, the old man told the fool to dig up wine, and the fool walked two or three hundred meters to the front of the courtyard with a hoe, and three or four jars of wine were dug out after a few hoes. It turns out that the old man has not been idle for more than 20 years, and he is salting meat and making wine, and he is afraid that he will starve his stupid son after he dies, which is really pitiful for the hearts of parents all over the world.

The banquet lasted until after eleven o'clock in the evening, and everyone's eyes were foggy and dizzy.

The old man saw that everyone was eating and drinking well, so he beckoned everyone to go back to their rooms to rest, and they had to hurry tomorrow, and the dishes and chopsticks here did not need to be cleaned up.

We thanked the old man for his kindness and went back to his room to rest, there were many rooms and very large, and there was no problem at all for 80 people. The old man divided six rooms for us to sleep in, and the remaining two rooms were their bedrooms and storage rooms.

We were assigned to the room where the stupid boy had just taken the meat, and it was impossible for me and Bao Er to be separated as a company, but we didn't want to mix with other tourists, so the old man arranged us in this slightly smaller room.

There is no electricity on the mountain, and when we were too drunk, we didn't think about asking for a flashlight, so we went to our accommodation in the dark. The door is hidden, and there is no point in locking it in this barren mountain.

I staggered into the house, "Turn on the lights!" ”

Leather bag scolded and kicked me, "Turn on the light of a fart, how can there be a light here." ”

I thought about it, so I stopped talking, and found the bed and lay down in the dark. The bed was very comfortable and soft, I was so tired, and with a little more wine at night, I was so sleepy that I almost fell asleep with my head next to the pillow.

I don't know how long it took, I got up to pee, I staggered up and went to push the door, but the wooden door of the room couldn't be opened. I thought I had drunk too much and didn't have enough strength, and I tried to run to the window, but I found that the house had no windows at all.

The bag was woken up by my noise, and scolded and said that you should just leave it in the house, and give him a few more money tomorrow. I was so uncomfortable that I said that the living can't let urine suffocate to death, so I found a corner of the wall to sprinkle. I felt that my cheeks had that kind of touch that seemed to be there, and I really caught a cold and hard thing when I pulled it with my hand, and it was definitely not a living thing. I followed the slender object down, the joints, the palms, the fingers......

It's clearly a human arm!
