Er Fat and I walked all the way to the col below, and Ma Quanfa was behind, desperately chasing. I glanced back and saw that he was covered in cold sweat, and I guess he was scared.

"Quan Fabo, is this around here?" I asked.

"Right under the poplar tree in front of you." After Ma Quanfa finished speaking, Er Fat and I walked over there, and Ma Quanfa also took a step and he followed us.

A little closer, you can see that there are indeed torn clothes in the wild grass under the poplar trees. There are blood stains on his clothes, it seems that Ma Quanfa should be right, Ma Sanshan was indeed eaten by something. However, when we got here, there was nothing unusual in the area.

Presumably, that thing has already run away.

When I walked under the poplar tree, the grass over there was crushed, and some bones and blood were scattered among the grass. A few tattered clothes, thrown everywhere.

Those bones have no skin and flesh, and even the head is almost only skeleton, which looks extremely terrifying. Ma Quanfa hid to the side, he didn't dare to go too far, he didn't dare to get too close, he didn't dare to look at it at all.

"What's the matter, it's from a neighboring village, we have to collect his body!" I said.

The second fat naturally nodded, Ma Sanshan's bones were basically eaten, and the rest were relatively large bones on some people.

After Er Fat and I went over to clean up, we wrapped it in clothes and handed it to Ma Quanfa. Although Ma Quanfa was scared, this Ma Sanshan was also considered to have some relatives with him, and it was also appropriate to collect the body for him.

When Er Fat and I collected Ma Sanshan's body, we also took a closer look. However, there is no breath left here, and it is difficult to tell whether Ma Sanshan was eaten by something.

In addition to Ma Sanshan and Ma Quanfa, there is another person who went up the mountain to burn incense, and he was the first to go to the mountain temple Ma Gui.

I don't know if he's in any danger.

Nearby, I searched for a while with Erfat, and there were no other clues, so I went up from this col. Originally, Er Fat and I were planning to go down the mountain to investigate the strange incident, so we didn't prepare to meet the mountain temple, but went down the mountain with Ma Quanfa.

All the way to the mountain, the horse was trembling.

First, he carried human bones on his back, and second, he was afraid that the thing would come out again, so he ate him too.

However, Ma Quanfa saw that I and Er Fat were not afraid at all, and later, they chatted with me and Er Fat. After all, when people are afraid, it is a very comforting thing to have someone to talk to, and they will not be so afraid.

And I was about to ask him about the jar and the cloth bag.

What does oil, salt, and grains mean?

Three sentences do not leave the old line, this horse is talking and talking, and he is talking about making bamboo baskets or something. Er Fat and I didn't have much interest in these, so Er Fat said: "Quan Fa Bo, why don't you take away the oil, salt and grains you bought in the village under the mountain?" ”

As soon as he asked this, Ma Quan was stunned.

He said, "Oh, why did I forget about it?" ”

Did you really forget? Hardly. However, I didn't think about debunking it directly with Er Fat, after all, he was just a tool to be used.

I was even thinking that these three people from the Ma family wanted to put the oil, salt and grains at the gate of the mountain temple, but only this Ma Quanfa did it. Therefore, Ma Quanfa was fine, but Ma Sanshan did not do it, so he was poisoned. Otherwise, that thing covered in black hair can release the horse's full hair?

How can the fat that reaches his mouth let him go?

Therefore, another person was contacted, Ma Gui. His life and death are unknown now, but this mountain is full of forests, and it is not impossible if that thing dragged him to some hidden place to eat. And we didn't find out, so we could only go to Dongwa Village with Ma Quanfa and take a look at Ma Gui's house.

Subsequently, Er Fat and I asked some more questions about the jar and grains, but we didn't ask anything useful.

When asked about the man who sold oil, salt and grains, Ma Quanfa said that he was a middle-aged man with a black hat, very tanned, and nothing else.

I asked him to think again.

Ma Quanfa thought seriously for a while.

I can't say anything.

There were delays back and forth along the way, and by the time we reached the old grave slope, it was already dark. Subsequently, by the time we arrived at Laojieling Village, it was already dark.

When he got here, Ma Quanfa didn't seem to be too scared, so he said to me and Er Fat: "I've already gone down the mountain." One baby, two fat, don't you live in the mountains? Let's all go back, I can go back by myself, thank you both for sending me so far. ”

I couldn't help but smile bitterly, sending him by the way, I was supposed to investigate the truth.

However, since Ma Quanfa said so, Er Fat was about to speak, so I took the lead and said, "Okay, Uncle Quanfa, let's go back to the mountain first." ”

"Go back, be careful on the road!" He said.

After thinking for a while, he said again: "Otherwise, you should go back to Dongwa Village with me, what should you do if you go up the mountain this big night and meet that man-eating thing again?" ”

"It's okay, we're not afraid of that thing." I said.

Ma Quanfa sighed and said, "You young people, even newborn calves are not afraid of tigers, but with your grandfather's blessing, you will definitely be fine." Then I'll go first and go back to the village! ”

"Okay, slow down on the road!" I said.

"Be careful, too!" After Ma Quanfa finished speaking, he turned his head and walked towards the outside of the village of Laojieling Village. There are still seven or eight miles away from the village to Dongwa Village, and the horses are swaying and leisurely, and after a while, they disappear on the village road in the distance. On both sides of the village road, there are wild grasses everywhere, and there is no need to be desolate.

"Boss, shall we really go back?" Erfat asked.

"Of course not going back. Let's go, let's also go to Dongwa Village to have a look, try to avoid Ma Quanfa, and don't let him find out. "I said, if there is really any conspiracy in the jar and grain sent, then Ma Quanfa should have succeeded. So, we have to stare at him and figure out the truth behind the matter, how is it exactly, what is he going to do?

After the horse is gone.

Er Fat and I quietly walked towards the road in the direction of Dongwa Village, keeping a distance from Ma Quanfa, in case he found out about me and Er Fat.

Seven or eight miles of road, walking is very slow.

After walking for about an hour, I arrived at Dongwa Village. Dongwa Village is bigger than our village, and after following Ma Quanfa into the village, after determining the residence of his family, Er Fat and I hid. Although I knew him before, I didn't know where his family lived. After he returned home, he first went out to call people and placed Ma Sanshan's body.

Ma Sanshan went up the mountain to worship the mountain god to find his wife.

However, when Ma Sanshan's body was placed, I saw Ma Sanshan's wife.

She was crying so much that she almost fainted, and asked Ma Quanfa what was going on, and Ma Quanfa said that she went to the mountains and met a wild beast, and it was like that. The villagers, especially the older generation, had heard of wild beasts eating people in the mountains, so they didn't think it was fake.

It's just that they all feel sorry for Ma Sanshan, saying that he shouldn't go up the mountain.

However, none of them knew what Ma Sanshan was going up the mountain for.

This matter is too strange, and my grandfather's fortune telling has always been very accurate. However, this time it seems to have failed, and no one mentioned the disappearance of Ma Sanshan's wife.

Therefore, Ma Sanshan went up the mountain and begged my grandfather to find out the whereabouts of his wife, which deceived my grandfather. However, the three of them, as if they had used some method, really deceived my grandfather's divination. And my grandfather also used divination to figure out the location of the person or object they were looking for.

Er Fat and I were in the dark, looking at each other, naturally thinking that this thing was getting more and more weird. The only explanation for this incident is that someone secretly manipulated and disrupted my grandfather's divination.

And the one who can do this must be a master, definitely not one of the three people of the Ma family.

The funeral here settled down, and I saw that Ma Quanfa secretly stuffed some money for Ma Sanshan's wife. When the rest of the Ma family saw this, they all thought that Ma Quanfa was a good person, and they knew that Ma Sanshan's wife would have a hard time in the future, and the money given was naturally relief.

But the more he did it, the more suspicious he became.

What the villagers can't see, Er Fat and I can naturally see clearly.

After dealing with Ma Sanshan's affairs, Ma Quan went out, as if he was going somewhere. Er Fat and I secretly followed, and then went to a family at the entrance of the village.

After a moment's hesitation, he went over and knocked on the door.
