Chapter 672: The Loss of the Child
After a few days of calm, nothing strange happened in the village, and Lao Ma gradually became relieved, but he didn't expect that the next unlucky person would be himself.
Two days ago, Lao Ma was holding his little nephew to play at the entrance of the village, and unconsciously there were a few fresh faces in the village, and Lao Ma was very curious about how someone would pass by in the village, so he took the initiative to go up and talk.
After walking in, the old horse found that the scale of this team was really not small, and the leader of the team was a short and fat man in his fifties.
The old horse was very strange, so he said to the fat man, "Fellow, the mountains have been foggy lately, and there are many jackals and wild beasts, and it is very unsafe for you people to enter the mountains. ”
The fat man became interested, and asked him if he was a real beast in the mountains. Lao Ma is a talkative person, and he has not seen a single outsider in this broken village for ten or eight years, and he has come so much at once, and he has a lot of fun talking, so he tells these people about the strange things that happened in the village last week.
The gang listened very carefully, and listened to the old horse until the end, and then the fat leader said that he had gone into the mountains to explore, and after listening to the story of the old horse, he felt very interesting, and asked the old horse if he would like to be a guide and take them to the place where the crazy woman had been eviscerated.
Lao Ma immediately quit, saying that he had to take care of the children, which was inconvenient, and the fog miasma of this generation was so big, it was easy to get lost when he entered the mountain, and once he got lost, he couldn't get out.
At this time, the fat leader took out a large stack of cash and handed it to Lao Ma, saying that as long as he was willing to lead the way, the money was his. Lao Ma was immediately moved, he had been in the mountains for most of his life, and his savings were less than five figures, but the fat team leader took out a gratuity of 20,000 or 30,000 yuan at once, which was undoubtedly a huge amount of money.
Under the offensive of money, Lao Ma put the danger aside, and walked directly into the mountain with the child, relying on his understanding of Wufeng Mountain, he soon came to the cave where the body of the madwoman was found a few days ago, and the fat leader wanted him to lead the team down the cave, and the old horse accepted the money from others and it was not easy to refuse, so he agreed.
After going down the cave, the old horse found that there was a hole in this place, last time he just wanted to take people out, so he didn't waste time checking the hole, this look, found that the hole had countless forks, and it didn't take long for the fat leader to come down, pointing to those caves, and asking him where these forks were leading.
Lao Ma couldn't say it, he had lived in this generation for decades, and he had never found these caves, let alone what was in the caves, and was about to go into the caves to take a look, when someone in the team suddenly exclaimed, saying look, the cave is foggy.
This was originally the foggy season, and the old horse didn't take it seriously, until the fog became thicker and thicker, he gradually felt that something was wrong, and there seemed to be something moving in the fog, the old horse didn't see it very clearly, but his intuition told him that the hole might not be peaceful, so he quickly ran out of the cave with his nephew in his arms.
Before he could run two paces away, a terrible exclamation was heard in his ears, and out of the thick fog came a number of stuffed monsters, which resembled monkeys, but were much taller, and their fur was more fluffy and brilliant.
The most terrifying thing is that these monsters are extremely aggressive to humans, once they jump out of the thick fog, they immediately look for a target to attack, the old horse was very scared at the time, because he saw with his own eyes that he brought the corpse to be divided, so he ran out of the hole, the fog was still spreading, a monster approached him, immediately knocked the old horse down from behind, and frantically snatched the child in his hand.
The old horse resisted desperately, but the monster was as strong as a brute bull, and easily snatched the child, and left a wound on his arm, after snatching the child, the monster crawled into the hole again, and the old horse quickly picked up a stone from the ground, intending to rush back to find the monster desperately.
Strange as it may say, the fog came and dispersed quickly, and by the time the old horse rushed into the cave, the monster was gone, and there were two or three corpses lying on the ground, including the team he had brought, and they were missing.
The dead silence of the cave made the old horse feel weird, he was so frightened that he trembled, plucked up the courage to look around the cave, but did not find his child, had to go down the mountain to find the villagers for help, but the villagers heard about him, but refused to enter the mountain again, but scolded the old horse should not be greedy, for the sake of money offended the mountain god.
In fact, the villagers are scared, these monsters have already killed two people, who knows how many more will die after entering the mountain? Lao Ma is really out of line, the child who was snatched away is his brother's own son, his brother has been working in the field for several years, in case he can't find the child, how should he explain.
So Lao Ma went out of the village overnight to find someone who could help, he first called the police, but the police had already gone to their village to look for them twice, and they didn't meet the so-called monster at all, since the village lost the first child, the police have successively entered the village to understand the situation, but now they have found nothing, and they don't want to waste their energy in their village.
Lao Ma had to leave, just when he had nothing to do, but on a wire stake saw someone posted a small advertisement for the Buddha shop, Lao Ma dialed the phone with the mentality of giving it a try, and soon contacted Zhang Qiang.
Hearing this, I looked back at Zhang Qiang in surprise and said, "Have you posted all the small advertisements here?" ”
Zhang Qiang smiled awkwardly, "Fate, fate!" ”
After listening to the whole story, I have sorted out the general context and asked a very puzzled question, "What is the origin of the group of people who paid you to enter the mountain in the first place?" ”
The old horse shook his head bitterly and said, he didn't know, it's really strange to think about it now, these people seem to be specifically going for those monsters. I immediately fell into silence and glanced at An Zanji, An Zanji also looked puzzled, frowned tightly and did not speak, but Zhang Qiang couldn't wait, and urged vigorously, "What should I do, you guys have an idea." ”
An Zanji furrowed his brows, looked at the old horse with gray eyes, and said, "If your nephew was really robbed by these monsters, I'm afraid that there is no luck in the murder now, and the hope of finding it back is very slim, are you sure you want to continue looking for it?" ”
Lao Ma said with a painful face, "If you don't look for it, it's not okay, that's my nephew, when my brother left, I told me to take care of him, but I just had such a thing, you said I ...... How do I face my brother? ”
The more the old horse spoke, the more excited he became, and he had already begun to slap himself, and when I saw this, I quickly grabbed his hand and said, "Forget it, since the incident has happened, it's useless to be in a hurry, you quickly take us back to the village, and we will go to the cave where you found the wild man as soon as possible!" ”
After speaking, I urged Zhang Qiang to hurry up and set off, and lay back on the back seat to recover his strength, while Long Linggu was quietly channeling my meridians, and the carriage was silent, and after a long time, An Zanji suddenly patted me on the shoulder and whispered, "You say, who will those people who spend money to hire old horses?" ”
I was numb and itchy, took off my heavy coat, smeared the potion and said that it was not clear for the time being, but it was impossible for so many wild people to appear on Wufeng Mountain for no reason, these wild people were actually mandrills that had become spirits, in addition, I also found some murals of the ancient witch clan in the cave just now, and there may be some kind of connection between the two.
Speaking of this, I paused in my tone and said very solemnly, "Also, I found a consciousness of an ancient evil spirit in the cave, it was once attached to a corpse, I had a preliminary fight with it, and it was difficult to entangle!" This thing should be the 'mountain god' in the mouth of the villagers. ”
