Chapter 3: Strange Copper Coins

At this time, a person suddenly came out from behind him, grabbed the copper coin and glanced at the "ancient relic currency...... Which stall bought a fake? ”

I turned my head and saw that it was Meng Wang Zhang, and I couldn't help but be happy.

"You dog, aren't you going home to get married?"

Meng Wang Zhang was my junior high school classmate and grew up with me wearing a pair of pants.

The night before I came to the army, we drank two cases of beer at a food stall and vomited from Qingxi Road to 17th Latitude Road.

At that time, Meng Wang Zhang only sympathized with me and persuaded me to think about it, and I insisted on it for a few years before I was released.

Unexpectedly, on the day I entered the army's dormitory, I saw him crying and calling his mother in the house.

Our revolutionary friendship has since sublimated, and we have changed from buddies to comrades-in-arms.

Two days before the accident, he took marriage leave to marry his girlfriend Xiaoyao, who had been talking for four years, and there was no reason to appear here at this time.

"Marriage...... Don't worry, wait until the mission is over. He prevaricated.

I thought something might have happened, and when I was about to ask, Lao Meng turned around with the copper coin and asked me, "Spend money to buy it?" ”

I shook my head, "Someone else gave it." ”

"Fake." He threw it back to me.

The ancestors of King Meng's Zhang family were all engaged in the antique business, and they also studied these things on weekdays.

"Why is it fake?"

"Look at what is written on it, ancient relics. The ancient relics are a fictional nation, and they don't exist at all, and you say that this money is true or false. ”

"I ......"

"Come out and assemble!"

I was about to continue to ask when the squad leader's voice sounded, and I quickly put the copper coins in my pocket and ran out.

The squad leader was also a little surprised when he saw Lao Meng, "Okay, you kid, you are willing to let the bride go at home and come to support, like the soldiers I led." ”

Meng Wangzhang smiled embarrassedly, but I always felt that this smile was a little bitter.

We got together and had a casual breakfast, and before we could get out of the task, Wu Xiu ran back out of breath.

"Oh no, squad leader, the hospital called and said that the old lady ...... The old lady ......"

The squad leader scolded, "Hurry up!" ”

"The old lady is dead, head, head lost."

Everyone was silent, and after listening to the rumors of the old queen, everyone seemed to have acquiesced to the possibility of cursing.

If the incident in the village was an accident, then the old lady had already been sent to the hospital, and the doctors and nurses could have this kind of thing happen in front of everyone's eyes, and no one believed that it was not the revenge of the ghosts and gods.

Wu Xiucai suddenly sobbed as he spoke, "There is still ...... And ......"

Everyone's eyes looked at Wu Xiucai again, and Wu Xiucai sat on the ground and cried loudly, "Lao Hao is dead." ”

The squad leader hurried to the dormitory with a few of us at the time, and found Lao Hao naked hanging from an old locust tree.

The usually iron-clad man was hung here like this.

I saw the green tendons on the squad leader's forehead bulging, and the roots of his teeth clenched.

After the team doctor took a photo and took the evidence, he carried the body down, and I noticed that Lao Hao seemed to be holding something in his hand.

I opened it gently, and a copper coin fell from his fingers, clearly printed with the words "Ancient Currency".

At this moment, I only feel that the copper coin in my pocket is so cold, so cold that it seems like the wind is blowing in my crotch.

Lao Meng and I looked at each other invariably, panicking.

After sending Lao Hao away, I sat in the car and smoked one cigarette after another.

Lao Meng leaned on the co-pilot and looked at me, and quipped, "Xiao Ding, your frightened hair stands up." ”

I rubbed a handful of messy hair, "I'm not in the mood to joke right now, I feel like I'm probably going to die." ”

"Bah, I've done the math for you, you live longer than Qingxi."

Qingxi is the eighth king raised by Lao Meng.

Lao Meng couldn't laugh when he saw me, and knew that I might be really scared, so Zhengse asked me, "You tell me the truth, where did you get this copper coin, if you really provoke something, you can just send it away." ”

I sorted out my thoughts and told Lao Meng about this matter as it was.

After Lao Meng heard this, he was silent for a long time.

"Give me one of your cigarettes."

When he got to the fourth, he said to me, "Is there anything else you find abnormal?" ”

Perverse......

I thought about it for a long time, and suddenly remembered a move by Du Chunmei before the overdue.

She waved her hand behind me, and I seemed to see a woman, who would not know what was going on.

Lao Meng said: "Otherwise, let's go to Nanshan Pass at night......

As soon as I heard these three words, my scalp was numb, let alone looking at them.

But Lao Meng analyzed it for me, saying that all the causes were because of what Du Chunmei said, and all the later things were caused by that incident. It's better to go and see it, and if it's really like what she said, then do her a favor. If this is not the case at all, it will save the two of us from being suspicious and continue to guess.

I thought about it for a while, and it seems to be the same reason.

This was followed by another day's rescue mission, and the night rested in the temple.

After eating fast with Lao Meng, I slipped out while everyone was not paying attention.

The night was still a little cold.

I wrapped my clothes tightly and promised Lao Meng that even if I was on the street picking up garbage in the future, I would find him a sewer pipe with the thickest cement to sleep in.

Lao Meng said no thanks, I have pension insurance.

……

After the natural disaster, Nanshan Village seems to be a dead man's village.

On the spacious mountain road, there was only the footsteps of me and Lao Meng.

Occasionally, people passing by with backpacks on their backs also bowed their heads and remained silent, with heavy faces.

Lao Meng grabbed one and asked how to go to Nanshan Pass.

The man didn't speak, just shook off Lao Meng's hand.

Lao Meng was about to have a seizure, but I hurriedly stopped it, pointed to the back basket behind the man with my chin, and signaled to Lao Meng.

Inside the basket was a child in pink shoes, and from the posture, there should be no signs of life.

I've seen too many pedestrians like this these days.

Dozens of miles of mountain roads, a pair of straw sandals, carrying the dashed hope on his shoulders.

Fortunately, the village is not large, and Lao Meng and I have been walking along the mountain road, and we really found a small mountain col before dark.

When I groped my way down, Lao Meng, who was walking in front, shouted, and I hurriedly reached out to pull him, but I was dragged down the mountain by him and hit the stake with a bang.

I touched my phone and tried to take a photo, but I found that I didn't know where it had fallen for a long time.

Fortunately, Lao Meng brought a flashlight with him, and I took a look through the light and found that a cut was made on his calf, the wound was not deep, and it should not be in the way, but there was indeed a lot of blood.

Lao Meng is not patient with pain, and he usually has to register if his hand is pierced, if he knows that the wound is so big, I am afraid it will grind me to death.

"What's the matter, what are you looking at?"

Before Lao Meng could react that he was injured, I hurriedly changed the direction of the flashlight, "It's okay, it's okay, look at the terrain." ”

Lao Meng muttered, "Strange, why do I feel that this trouser leg is so wet." ”

"Maybe pee."

As I spoke, I hurriedly helped him up, Lao Meng put his hands on the ground, and wondered, "Why are my hands wet?" ”

After speaking, he lifted his hand and took a photo, and his hands were covered with blackened blood, exuding a foul smell.

"Damn, what the hell is this!"

Lao Meng bounced up from the ground and scolded.

I looked in the direction he was touching and saw a cloth bag on the ground, flattened and covered in blood.

I shuddered, approached, and opened the cloth bag, revealing a strand of hair falling out of it.

My frightened teeth chattered, and after three seconds of staring at the head of the flattened man, he looked at his hand, turned around and leaned against the tree and began to vomit.

And I only have an ominous premonition in my heart, Du Chunmei's words are true, what about the curse of the old emperor? It was like the shadows of the trees in this col, shrouding me in darkness.

I took off my coat and wrapped my head around the head, and helped Lao Meng back to the courtyard.

By this time everyone had fallen asleep, and we went straight to the door of the abbot's bedroom.

I was about to step forward and knock on the door, but Lao Meng suddenly pulled me back.

"What's wrong?"

"It seems to have the voice of a woman talking."

We crept out the window, clearly hearing a woman's moan, interspersed with occasional blood-pumping words.

The two of us crouched outside the door and laughed obscenely.

Today's monks are not like they used to abstain from alcohol and meat. Now knocking on the wooden fish and reciting the scriptures are the same as going to work, after work, you should eat meat and eat meat, and you should marry a daughter-in-law and marry a daughter-in-law.

Lao Meng stretched out his hand to open a crack in the window and leaned over to look.

I was just about to stop it, but I saw Lao Meng as if he had lost his mind, staring at the room with two eyes, unable to speak.

I sensed that something might be a little abnormal, so I pushed Lao Meng away and leaned over to take a look.

I saw a wet woman, with hair like water and weeds, riding on the abbot's body and swaying back and forth.

The skin on his body seemed to have been blistered for a long time, and he wrinkled white lines.

The most terrifying thing is that there are several fist-sized holes in the back that I don't know what has been smashed out, and black pus is dripping out at the moment.

My gut tells me that this is not human at all.

I hurriedly covered Lao Meng's mouth and dragged him away.

Unexpectedly, when he turned around and was about to leave, he tripped over the dustpan standing at the door.

The room shouted, "Who?" ”

Before Lao Meng and I could leave, the abbot walked out quickly wrapped in clothes.

Seeing the two of us looking sneaky, he asked, "Is there anything wrong with me?" ”

I hurriedly covered up, "Ah, no." You get busy first, and we'll talk about it tomorrow. ”

He glanced at me and saw that the two of us were covered in mud and holding a cloth bag in our hands, and we didn't look like we were all right.

Then he turned and pushed the door open, "Come in and talk." ”

Meng Wang Zhang and I, you push me, I push you, no one wants to go through that door.

In the end, Lao Meng was strong and sent me in.

But strangely enough, the room was quiet, there was nothing, just a strange, indescribable smell in the air.
