Chapter VI The Village Chief

Before going to bed, the chief of the village called us to his house and invited us to eat game from the mountains, because he thought we were from the city, and thought that we rarely ate from the mountains. Of course, we didn't break it, so there is no need to bother to explain this kind of thing.

The village chief asked us a lot of questions about the city, and they were all very commonplace. People in this small mountain village rarely seem to go out of the mountains, and I also found that the villagers basically don't use modern smartphones, let alone smartphones, even ordinary mobile phones are useless. Here we are, we can't find a half-bar signal at all.

As for the TV, it's even more impossible, there is no signal, and even if there is that thing, it will not receive the channel. So, they have very limited knowledge. Therefore, we have answered all those who can be answered.

Towards the end of dinner, Zhou Jun suddenly broke away from the village chief's gushing words and asked, "Village chief, you have been living in this big mountain, do you often see some special things happening?" ”

This is a straightforward problem, and this kind of problem should be very taboo in a mountain village with a relatively fixed mindset like this. Although Zhou Jun asked this question and I wanted to know the answer, I was wondering if the village chief would answer.

The village chief stopped his voice, his face became grim, and he stared at Zhou Jun for a long time without a response.

"Huh...... Don't get me wrong, we don't mean anything else, but I heard that there are often some special events in the mountains, so I was curious for a while, so I ...... "I wanted to explain and ease my emotions, after all, the village chief's expression was a little too serious."

But I was only halfway through my sentence when the village chief suddenly cut off his beard and asked, "You are also chasing that thing, right?" ”

Hearing this, we were all stunned, but we didn't know what to mean, and we all looked at him.

The village chief continued: "Those ghost soldiers, the ghost soldiers lined up! ”

"Did it come up so often before? Someone else chased? Zhou Jun's surprised expression showed unintentionality, if this thing didn't know the origin, it was estimated that no one would dare to chase it. But listening to the meaning of the village chief's words, it seems that someone has made a special trip to pursue it before.

"It often happens at the end of the lunar month, no matter how windy or rainy, whatever the weather, it will appear in the evening. In the past few years, people have often come to chase me, and every time I meet such people, I have to persuade them not to go, because those ghost soldiers come with the ghost aura of the underworld, and if the living are touched, they will be taken away by the ghost soldiers as wandering lonely souls! But they didn't listen, so I never saw them come back......" The village chief's voice was cold, and his mood was full of fear.

"Maybe they've gone somewhere else!" Yu Qian wanted to comfort the village chief, so she continued his words.

"I can't get out, that mountain is the territory of the ghost soldiers, and it is the gate of the underworld, and those who go in can't get out!" The village chief said very firmly.

"How do you know? They won't necessarily come back to tell you when they go out! "This time it was Boss Taiyi who answered, and he didn't believe that there was anything that couldn't come out.

The village chief suddenly turned his head to look at him, and a sad look suddenly appeared in his eyes: "My daughter, who followed the guests who went into the mountain like you, did not listen to my advice, went to that mountain, and never came back!" How do you think I know? ”

Boss Taiyi, like us, was stunned and a little overwhelmed. But after Boss Taiyi was stunned for a moment, he quickly apologized and revealed the unpleasant memories of the village chief, which was very undeserved.

The village chief sighed, and then said, "It's been several years since this happened, and I've seen it too. Now too

has a son, this past is over. However, if you are chasing that thing, I still advise you not to go! It's really going to die! ”

Boss Taiyi didn't dare to say anything more, and after listening to the village chief's words, he nodded hurriedly. Although I knew he was pretending to obey his uncle's words, we didn't say anything.

After eating, we said goodbye to the village chief and went back to the homes of our helpers to rest as soon as possible.

The next day, early in the morning, we had already packed up and were ready to leave early. But as soon as he walked to the entrance of the village, he saw the village chief standing there with two village men. When he saw us coming, he brought the two men to greet us.

"The road in this mountain is not easy to walk, let's take you away, we know where the scenery is good, where the photos are good, and the people from the city who came before were all brought up the mountain by us." As soon as the village chief came over, he pointed to a mountain behind the village and said.

Our purpose was the mountain opposite, the direction in which the village chief's eyes had been looking when he had spoken last night. But now they stopped us and showed us the way, and pointed out where we could go, obviously because they were afraid that we would run away to that forbidden mountainous area.

Although we could have declined their kindness, I didn't do that, but complied with them and let them take us to the back mountain and walk around the mountain.

These three men are also real, pointing east and west, introducing the names of mountains, big peaks and some legends passed down from generation to generation. Even, we were told where there were mushrooms, wild vegetables, fish and rabbits in these mountains.

Where is the place behind each mountain, and where we go to the province after crossing that mountain, they are very enthusiastic to guide us.

And those of us, as if we had really forgotten the real destination, showed a look of surprise and interest as they pointed out. Ji Yun and Ji Fu even looked a little excited, they really had cameras, and they were taking photos one by one with the guidance of the villagers.

This visit was a whole day, and we all had lunch in the mountains. These three men really let us experience a wild feast of Orion.

The three of them, with their bare hands, caught two rabbits, caught a few fish, and then got some unknown wild fruits for us to eat. Although we are all from the countryside, but there are no mountains in our hometowns, we rarely eat the taste of the real mountains, and this real game is quite energetic, than when we came out of the sword mound, the game we ate along the way is more energetic.

In the afternoon, it looked dark as it looked. I don't know why the sun sets so fast, but at just four o'clock, it was already covered in red glow and hung on the slope of the mountain.

Seeing this, the three men seemed to have a discussion, and then the village chief turned to us and said, "The sun is almost going down, and it will definitely not work if we rush back." Anyway, you're here to experience the taste of the mountains, so why don't you stay in the mountains tonight. We've just discussed that there's a cave around here, and we'll stay there tonight. ”

A few of us glanced at each other, and we both saw a helplessness in each other's eyes. But in the eyes of Ji Yun and Ji Fu, what we see is excitement. These two goods have basically forgotten our purpose.

It's really helpless, these three men will definitely not leave us before we leave the mountain. All of our plans had to change for that.

"Okay, then you'll lead the way." I sighed softly, not daring to let them find out.

"Okay, then let Qiangzi take you first, me and Lao Liu

Go find some firewood and food, and get some water by the way. As soon as the village chief saw that we agreed, he immediately said happily. While speaking, Lao Liu was already walking out of the team.

The cave they said wasn't far away, a few minutes' walk away, and I even wondered if they had already arranged it and deliberately walked this way.

This is a huge arch hole, in the mountains of Xiangxi, Hunan, can often be seen, some mountain people simply put their homes in this huge arch hole. You don't need a roof to build a house here.

Entering the cave, before I went deeper, just at the entrance of the cave, I saw the ashes of the campfire and the traces of human activity all over the ground. Although the garbage has been cleaned up, the scattered plastic bags can still be seen.

It is obvious that this cave is simply a tourist attraction and is frequented by people. I even wonder if these people often bring their travelers to rest here, and this sightseeing route has long become their route.

The others noticed this, but no one said anything, and they just sat down around the ashes. The location of the bonfire this night is still here.

After we sat down, the strong man walked to the entrance of the cave on his own, as if looking at the village chief and the old Liu.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Boss Taiyi came to the root of my ear and asked me, "Lao Chen, this has to be like a way, otherwise we won't be able to go to the opposite mountain!" ”

I nodded, and then said, "Tomorrow at dawn we will say that we will go back, and when they stop watching us, I will go straight into the mountains and climb through the woods, without passing through the village." ”

"Good! That's it! I'm going to talk to the others! "Boss Taiyi is very determined, he seems to want to do it now.

Soon, the boss of Taiyi spread the news around, and I saw the decision on their faces. Only Ji Yun and Ji Fu, these two people looked stunned, as if they didn't understand why I did this. Of course, I didn't pay any attention to them at all.

As the waiting time passed, the sky darkened, and the vision became very bad. However, the village chief and Lao Liu have not yet returned.

We didn't have to worry, after all, they were people from the mountains, and no one was more familiar with the mountains than they did. But the darkness and cold of the night in the cave made us unbearable, so we picked up some dead branches around the cave and lit a fire.

Seeing that it was past seven o'clock in the night, they still did not come back. We were so hungry that we opened the bags and nibbled on the dry food. Boss Taiyi gave the dry food to the strong man, but this guy didn't take it at all, but looked out of the cave with anxiety and uneasiness.

Looking at his appearance, we finally determined that the village chief and Lao Liu must have encountered something. Before that, this hadron was quite calm and did not look anxious.

We didn't have the heart to continue eating, so we all walked to the entrance of the cave and gathered around Hadron. Seeing his very uneasy appearance, I couldn't help but ask him where the village chief and Lao Liu went. However, as soon as my hand was stretched out, my mouth was opened, and suddenly a dark shadow emerged from the grass outside the hole.

As soon as the black shadow came out, it immediately made a voice: "Come and help!" Lao Liu can't do it! ”

The voice was from the village chief, who was panting, like an old cow, and seemed to be running all the way. If you can let him run like this, something must be wrong!

"What's going on?" I asked uneasily.

"Ghost soldiers! Ghost soldiers have also appeared here! Lao Liu was caught by the ghost soldiers! The village chief was impatient, shouted a few words, and then went back into the grass with the strong son.
