Chapter 42 Bamboo Forest Gang
I put the iron gun on my back and took the little nine-tails to the car and rushed to Zhulingang.
The car drove all the way, looking at the innocent face of the little nine-tail, the guilt in my heart became stronger and stronger, it was lying on the side of the window and looking out of the window, its appearance overlapped with Su Xiaoyue in my eyes, I subconsciously reached out and touched its head.
Little Nine-Tails turned his head back to look at me: "Brother, what's wrong?" Are you in a bad mood? Boa you off again? ”
For a split second, I blurted out, "Or you just stay in the car." "As soon as I said that, I regretted it.
Little Nine-Tails shook his head and looked at me with those watery eyes: "No, I must accompany my brother, my brother will be in danger alone!" ”
It was like my heart was being burned by fire, it was getting heavier and heavier, and my face was getting worse and worse, and I closed my eyes and stopped talking to Little Nine-Tails, because I was afraid that I would not be able to help but let it go like this.
Seeing that I closed my eyes, Little Nine-Tails turned around and continued to lie on the window to watch the scenery.
I don't know how long it took, but Little Nine-Tails shook me: "Brother, the car has stopped." ”
I hurriedly opened my eyes and found that the driver was turning his head and was about to call me: "Dao Chief, this is Shidao Village where we are now, as for where Zhulingang is, you can go to the village and ask." ”
The meaning of this is obviously that I don't want to lead the way, and if it were me, I wouldn't want to go to a place where there are monsters.
I nodded at him, said thank you, and got out of the car with Little Ninetails.
Little Nine Tails snatched my iron gun away, and said to me with a smile: "My brother is going to do something big at night, now Bao'er is helping my brother carry it, and my brother can rest for a while!" "I tried to get the iron gun back, but I found that Little Nine-Tails was very stubborn, so I had to follow her.
There are not many people in this small village, perhaps it is during the day when everyone in the village goes out to do farm work, so it seems unusually quiet.
After looking for it, I found an old man sitting smoking dry tobacco in front of a house, and I asked with a smile: "Old man, do you know where this bamboo forest gang is?" ”
The old man glanced at me, "Young man, what are you doing in Zhulingang?" ”
"I studied art, and my sister and I heard that the scenery of Zhulingang is good, and I wanted to collect inspiration." As I spoke, I took out a pack of cigarettes from my pocket, opened them, and handed one to the old man.
"It turned out to be an artist, young man, I suggest you don't go to this bamboo forest gang." The old man took the cigarette in my hand and put it in his pocket.
As soon as I heard it, there was a play! This bamboo forest hill must be the territory of those two beasts, I pretended not to know and asked, "Why did the old man say that?" ”
The old man took a puff of dry tobacco and said to me in a serious tone: "Young man, you are not a local, are you? The legend of this bamboo forest gang has two monsters, a cow demon and a pig demon, who will eat people! Our village used to find a Taoist priest to arrest him, but the Taoist priest entered the bamboo forest and never came back. It's better not to go, young man. ”
I smiled and replied to him, "Old man, what kind of society is this?" How can there still be youkai? Those are feudal superstitions, we have to believe in science! Just tell me, I'm responsible for what happens. Having said that, my heart was full of gratitude to this old man.
Seeing that I was so stubborn, the old man sighed: "You descendants just don't listen to our old man, forget it, you go and ask others, I don't know." After saying that, the old man closed his eyes and ignored me.
As soon as I heard this, I was anxious, where do I go to find someone to ask at this time? I had to explain to the old man: "Old man, you misunderstood, in fact, I am a duangong, I was entrusted by others, and I came to Zhulingang to catch demons." As I spoke, I took out the iron gun.
The old man looked at the iron gun in my hand, and the dense symbols on it seemed to tell him that I was a Taoist priest who could catch ghosts and exorcise demons, and the old man looked at me suspiciously: "The young man is really a gentleman?" Don't joke with me, the bamboo forest gang is really impossible for ordinary people to go. ”
I replied to the old man in the affirmative: "I am the gentleman, you can tell me." ”
The old man stared at me deadly, and only after half a voice did he speak: "I don't care if you are true or not, since you yourself say that you have the ability, then I will tell you how to go, but if something happens, don't rely on me when the time comes!" ”
The old man took another puff of cigarette and told me: "You go out of the village and walk five or six miles to the northeast, and then there is a fork in the road, and soon you will see a stone tablet on the right, which says Bamboo Forest Gang, and then there is a bamboo forest in it, and that is the place you are looking for." ”
I thanked the old man, handed the iron gun to the little nine-tails, and turned around and walked towards the entrance of the village. Suddenly, I heard the old man's voice behind me: "Young man, pay attention to safety, those two monsters will not come out during the day, and they will not appear until after eleven o'clock at night, if the young man can't fight, run to the front of the stone monument, so that the two monsters will not catch up." ”
I thanked him loudly, and the old man shook his head and continued to sit on the bench and smoke. I took out my mobile phone and took a look, it was already three o'clock in the afternoon, and if I didn't hurry up, it was estimated that it would be dark when I arrived at Zhulingang!
Walking out of the village, I wanted to take a ride, but I found that there was no one on the road, so I could only take the little nine-tails and run northeast.
When I got to the fork in the road that the old man said, it was already dark, I looked at my phone, it was already nine o'clock in the evening, and I kept complaining to the old man: "You really killed me!" I thought it was five or six miles away! Who knew it was five or six kilometers! ”
I was so tired that I had to sit on the side of the road to recover my strength, and the little nine-tails ran behind me very obediently and reached out to hammer my back for me.
After resting on the side of the road for about ten minutes, I felt that my strength was almost restored, so I got up and walked with it to the right fork in the road.
Because it was already dark, and there was no light in the vicinity, I had to take out my mobile phone to illuminate it, and walked towards the bamboo forest one step at a shallow and one step deep.
The light on the phone was getting weaker and weaker, and just a minute before the phone turned off automatically, I saw the bamboo forest.
At this time, a very strange wind suddenly blew, whimpering, as if someone was crying, and someone was laughing, and the bamboo forest smirked, and opened his swarthy arms, wanting to catch me into the endless darkness, as if something unexpected would jump out of it at any time.
The phone finally couldn't hold on, and the screen went black. For a moment, I felt goosebumps all over my body, and my hairs stood on end! I couldn't retreat when I got here, so I could only cautiously walk to the depths of the bamboo forest, and the little nine-tails followed me closely, grabbing my arm.
The moment I stepped into the bamboo forest, I found that the woods were too quiet at this time, and the original sound of the wind and cicadas seemed to have disappeared, except for a few bird whimpers diffused from time to time in the empty air with the smell of blood.
It seems to be the last struggle of life, and it seems to be a cry for help before death. The dark clouds obscured the moon, and in the final brewing, the whole land was shrouded in darkness, and the original teeth and claws of the bamboo forest were also soaked in a dead silence, looking so depressed and powerless.
Suddenly, a ray of light shot through the night sky, and the dark clouds slowly withdrew from the sky, showing the moon little by little, and by the moonlight, I could barely see the road in the bamboo forest, and I was walking, with a "Moo!" The voice came, and I was shocked into a cold sweat!
I looked up and saw a huge black shadow in the middle of the road not far ahead, and before I could react, there was a lion-like roar on the left, and a slightly smaller shadow suddenly rushed towards me!
