"Master, grandpa, I'm back." I said with a smile after entering the door with Huanhuan, the big yellow dog who smelled my smell and went out to greet him, and after looking at the two old men on the two chairs.

"Hmm~" The old man responded by chatting softly, and he didn't look at me, and the grandfather who was leaning in was even more excessive, as if he hadn't heard and didn't see me coming back, and he was smoking his cigarette with "let's go, let's go". After more than half a year, I don't know if I have been with the old man for a long time, and I have begun to be infected with a quiet and cold temperament, or I have seen too much of my eldest grandson, and I have long lost the cordiality I used to have, or both, in short, my grandfather has completely ignored me more and more times.

Knowing that these two increasingly eccentric old men did not like to be disturbed when they were smoking after dinner, after politely greeting him, he smiled at his father, who poked his head out, and his mother, who got up and came out, and then walked into the house.

I kept food on the big iron stove that was used as a dining table on a warm day, and I laughed with my parents, scooped up a basin of cold water, washed my face, took the bowl full of rice handed by my mother, and sat down by the stove and began to eat. Since I haven't eaten all day, and I think I may have to consume a lot of physical strength tonight, so I need to eat more, so the food looks a little ugly, just like the reincarnation of a starving ghost, which makes my mother strange for a while, and repeatedly tells me to slow down and not rush.

After eating, cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, and watching the anti-Japanese drama with my parents for a while, I came back to the courtyard and said to the old man, "Master, I plan to go to the mountains tonight to spend the night, do you think it's okay?" ”

As soon as I heard that I was going to spend the night in the mountains, my grandfather finally found out about my existence and straightened up from the bamboo chair to look at me.

On the mountain, of course, it refers to the thatched hut that has been empty for some days, and I don't know what it has become now.

At the same time, the old man, who heard this, also raised his head slightly to look at me, and after a few seconds, his body softened again, sat down on the bamboo chair, nodded and said, "Go ahead, it's better to go to the mountain." "From his eyes, I saw a rare hint of surprise, and some colors that I didn't understand a little bit and didn't obviously realize.

Of course, it was only later that I really understood the precise meaning of the old man's short words.

Hearing that I suddenly decided to go to the mountain for the night, my parents inevitably felt a little surprised, but it was still reasonable, I didn't say anything, and after asking me what I needed to bring to the mountain, my mother helped me pack my things.

In fact, there is nothing to clean up, nothing more than pen, ink, paper, inkstone, and lighting lamps, the bronze statue of the ancestor has little effect on me, and I have no use at this time, so I don't need to bring it again. After a while, he put the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone into the backpack that had not been useful for a long time, and then carried the bag on his back, carrying the old oil lamp filled with oil in one hand, and leaving the house with a flashlight in the other. The big yellow dog Huanhuan knew where I was going, so he jumped out of the door, wanting to go to the grass hut on the mountain with me.

As Li Shanye said when he parted, the darkness will only make people who fear the darkness feel fearful, and I don't want to be this kind of person, so the only way is to overcome the darkness and no longer have any fear of it.

Although it may sound like a secondary two, in general, it means that it is true.

It has been nearly two months since I went down the mountain to go home, and then I came back to the mountain bay, and the feeling has been completely different from the past half a year, because it has completely entered the season of grass withering and yellowing, so the mountain bay grows in the yin air, and the dry and rotten vegetation scene in the autumn tiger roasting seems to be not too obvious different from the surrounding world, if you are unaware, it is basically impossible for ordinary people to see that there is any difference between here and other places.

And the thatched hut that used to be the same as the ice cellar on dog days, even more cold than the ice cellar, because it has not been touched by popularity for two months, and has been damaged by the strong wind of the night before going down the mountain, has also completely shown signs of dilapidation, the rain cloth cracked everywhere, and most of the color has receded, one by one in the night wind that has begun to take on the cold, the exposed wood and the thatch on the top have also decayed, exuding the smell of decay, close to the ground, there are several places where fungus has grown, Fortunately, a few green vines that had regrown under the nourishment of yang energy climbed on the roof early, more or less washing away the decay, but at the same time, it also proved that no one had been here for some time.

And the strange and lively scene that used to be surrounded by a hundred ghosts has completely disappeared, and under the light of the bright starry sky, it looks extremely cold and lonely.

Flashlight crossed the canal and climbed up the ridge, and came to a small flat ground outside the thatched hut, and in the completely dead hay, a layer of loose and uneven grass grew again, just past the grass on the surface of the feet, and the flashlight went down the black doorway, and in the cracks of the plywood laid on the ground, grass also grew, and even a few trees were half a person high.

I trampled down a waist-high dog's tail grass that grew outside the doorway, and was about to walk in, when I suddenly noticed that something was reflecting the faint light in the light of the flashlight on the small bed I had slept on.

If you look closely, there are exactly two points in this ghostly light, and it is still moving, obviously the eyes of some animal.

"Aim~~!" Before I could see what it was, a somewhat piercing and terrible meow suddenly rang out from the bed where I had slept before, and it seemed very sad in the night, and then I saw the ghostly eyes on the bed flash, and a black shadow burst out of the bed, and pounced on me with lightning speed.

I didn't make it in advance that there would be animals in the grass hut, and it was so fierce that I was going to attack people's psychological preparations, and in a hurry, I had to subconsciously raise the flashlight and clench it, and smash it towards the black shadow that rushed in.

Bang, accompanied by a sound that seemed to ring in my ears, more poignant and harsh, but also full of hatred of the mad cat meow, I only felt the front end of the flashlight, and the hand holding the flashlight hit the fierce hair, the hair is not as soft as the ordinary domestic cat, but it looks very hard, just like a slightly sharp spike, the position of the hand on the cat's body instantly came a heavy tingling, at the same time, the cat was also bounced out by me, and hit the rotten wooden board behind it with a bang.

I didn't have time to see it clearly, but the tingling pain in my right hand alone and the considerable force of the impact just now were enough for me to make a judgment.

This cat is certainly not small, and it is by no means as simple as the average domestic cat.

Before I could react next, the big cat that fell to the ground let out another terrible and piercing scream, bounced off the ground at a very fast speed, and pounced on me again.

This time, I finally saw clearly, it turned out to be a big cat with four or five heads and feet the size of an ordinary adult domestic cat, covered in pitch black, with its mouth wide open, showing its fangs, and looking extremely fierce!

When I found out that this guy had a huge body as big as an ordinary adult earth dog, I couldn't help but be startled, and the hairs on my body stood up instantly!

And even in this extremely short moment of hesitation, the big black cat was already very close to me, and there was only a distance of less than a meter, and it would not be a moment before it would pounce on me and knock me down. At this time, if you raise your hand to defend again, you will only feed the whole hand into its wide open mouth, and you will end up being bitten by it, and in a panic, you have to use all your strength to round your arm and throw it back from the side to the right half of its head.

With a bang, the fist that clenched the flashlight just smashed into the big cat, and there was a sudden dull pain in several joints of the whole arm, as if it was thrown back on a hard wall and dislocated, and the flashlight in his hand was instantly extinguished.

"Wow~" stinged the eardrums, and the scream that was even more fierce and terrible sounded in an instant, tearing through the night sky, and I was thrown away with all my strength, and the giant cat the size of a dog was suddenly whipped and bounced out to the right side. Turning around sharply and assuming a defensive posture in the direction where the big cat flew out, he felt a hot tearing pain coming from his elbow, which had obviously been scratched by the fierce cat.

"! Where did you come from, don't talk about the uncle's nest while he is not there, and dare to attack me in turn! You're looking for death! "Under the stimulation of severe pain, I didn't care that I was facing a fierce cat at this time, and it was impossible to understand human speech, so I scolded at the top of my throat without thinking about it!

In response to me, there was an even more vicious, even resentful howl, which made my scalp instantly tingle and give me goosebumps.

Fortunately, the murderous creature of unknown origin seemed to be frightened by my majestic scolding, and only let out a howl full of danger, but did not pounce again.

"Where did the bad stuff come from! For the sake of you growing up so hard, give you a chance, while the uncle is not angry now, obediently go away and don't harass me again! Otherwise, no matter whether you really have nine lives or not, you will be killed on the spot tonight! Don't go back quickly! Finding that such a yelling was effective, I was immediately overjoyed, and without thinking about it, I held my breath and shouted again.

"Meow~~~" Naturally, the cat meow was still in response, but this time it was obviously suppressed by my momentum, no longer so resentful, but a little more vigilant and uneasy.

At the same time, although I couldn't see it yet, I could clearly feel that the fierce cat lying on the ground pressed down and tensed, and made a posture that bounced up and pounced on my face at any time.

I found that this guy had tensed his body and was ready to attack, and I suddenly didn't want to stimulate it anymore, and after taking a deep breath secretly, I lowered my head slightly, and tried my best to open my eyes, which were not too big, and strive to look at this fierce thing like a copper bell, and the "spirit of the king" stared at this fierce thing.

"What's going on? Where did this fierce creature come from, and when did he take over the hut as a lair? I've never seen anyone raise such a big domestic cat, and although there are a lot of forests in our generation, there should not be a big forest that can allow such a large wild cat to survive, in other words, even a wild cat that runs out of a large forest should not be so big, so where did this evil thing come from? After contemplating and confronting for a moment, I found that this fierce cat was more tense at this time to guard against my attack, and it didn't look like it would be an active attack for a while, so I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then began to analyze the origin of this fierce thing.

I think of a cat called the lynx, which is a real beast, it looks like a cat, and the key is that it can grow so big, or even bigger, that it looks like a leopard. But as far as I know, the lynx is a cold-loving animal, which has always been distributed in cold alpine areas, and we should not have a record of wild lynx haunts in the southern mountainous areas, the point is that this thing is brown or brown, mixed with dark spots, and the coat color looks very similar to a leopard, and I have never heard of a lynx with pure black hair, so the possibility of this fierce thing in front of me is a lynx from the perspective of coat color.

So, what is this bad thing?

With the flashlight just smashed and broken, it is impossible for me to see this murderous thing clearly, and at this time, it is also very inappropriate to take out my mobile phone or light a kerosene lamp, because it is very likely to irritate the murderous object, which obviously does not like the bright light, to attack me again. So before thinking of a way to deal with this thing, the best option is to continue the confrontation, and definitely not make too many rash moves.

After all, the lynx is a beast, it is said that some of them are really ruthless, and they are fierce beings who can fight with tigers a few times, if you look away, this guy is not a cat, it is really a wild lynx, with my little body, even if I try my best, the chance of being able to get it is very slim. Generally, a larger domestic cat can scratch people's skin and flesh when they play ruthlessly, let alone such a big guy.

Fortunately, as I gradually got used to the light, my eyes were no longer almost invisible as they were when the flashlight was just turned off, and although I still couldn't see clearly, I could see it anyway.

I saw more than two meters away from me, less than three meters on the grass where the old and the new were mixed, this should be forty or fifty pounds, black as ink, without any trace of variegated cat, two front paws slightly bent forward and pressed half lying on the grass, holding up a head about the same size as me, staring at me with vigilance and threat, two eyes in the light of the starlight, reflecting the faint green light, fierce, with a trace of quite humane resentment, and as if to examine my meaning, once you see my ability, Or if they find a flaw in me, they will burst into a posture and tear me to shreds......
