Chapter 206: The wolves are catching up

At this time, the wolves were getting closer and closer, and I said anxiously, "Brother Song, what should we do now?" ”

Song Dahai stomped his feet anxiously and said, "I don't know what to do about this, I've never encountered anything like this before." ”

Just when we were in a hurry, suddenly from not far away, a red lantern came, although there was a thick fog, but the red light emitted by the red lantern was very clear and dazzling, I pointed to the red lantern and said: "Brother Song, look at the red lantern, it seems that someone has come to save us." ”

As I spoke, I was about to move forward, and Song Dahai said: "It's a little wrong to be bold, do you see if the lantern is floating in the air?" Supposedly, the red lantern is so close that we should faintly see people, but we can't see anything. ”

Only then did I take a closer look at the red lantern, and found that behind the red lantern, there was some dense fog, and there was no shadow of anyone at all, and the red lantern was indeed floating in the air by itself. Don't know what to do for a while? At this time, I saw the red lantern slowly move up and down three times, as if nodding and greeting us.

I said, "Brother Song, I don't think this red lantern has any ill will towards us, so let's just go with him, there are wolves behind us, if we can't get out, it's still a dead end." ”

Song Dahai nodded and said, "Be bold, listen to you, just follow this red lantern, if we die, it will be damned." ”

After saying that, we got things done, and then walked towards the red lantern, what I didn't expect was that we walked, the red lantern also walked, we walked fast, the red lantern also walked fast, I walked slowly, the red lantern also walked slowly, at this time Song Dahai looked at the red lantern and said: "Bold, I know what the red lantern is, this is a ghost lantern." ”

I said, "Ghost lanterns? Isn't it just a big ghost fire? ”

Song Dahai nodded and said, "Yes, it's a big ghost fire, but it's different from our village." ”

I remembered the big ghost fires in the past, the big ghost fires usually appear on the mass graves in the north of the village, and those big ghost fires are the kind of blue-green light, which is not much different from the current ghost lantern. The big ghost fire rose from the woods, and then slowly came towards our village, those big ghost fires seemed to be alive, and when they encountered a higher place, they would rise by themselves, I remember every time we saw these, we would hold branches, brooms and other things, shouting loudly, as long as we shouted hard, or tossed, those ghost lanterns would turn by themselves, and then fly to the land temple at the north gate of the village, stop for a while, and then slowly fly towards the mass grave.

The old man in the village always scolded us loudly when he saw us fighting a big ghost fire, and did not let us fight. The old people also told us that those big ghost fires were actually the ancestors who carried lanterns to see our children and grandchildren. There is a family on the farm, the man is not at home, only the woman and two children are at home. One night, it was quite late, and before the door could be closed, a ghost lantern floated into the house, and the two children were frightened and cried.

Fortunately, that girl was a stunned person, and she was very bold, and when she saw that the big ghost fire was not leaving, she directly picked up the urine jar and scolded. After the big ghost fire turned around a few times, it slowly retreated, and then after the ghost fire left, the woman asked the two children why they were crying, and the two children said that they saw a person wearing a shroud, carrying a ghost lantern, his face was black, and it was very scary.

The current red lantern is similar to the ghost lantern, fluttering and flying forward, and the two of us follow the ghost lantern forward, and the road we take is very flat, avoiding those difficult roads. When it was dark, we walked out of the locust forest. A few huts appeared in front of us, and Song Dahai said happily: "Bold, we came out, you see these houses are the houses left by Ma Zi back then." ”

We went to look at the house, and after a while we remembered the friend who had brought us with the red lantern, even though we knew that the friend who had made the red lantern was not a human being. When we looked for the red lantern, we found that it was gone. Song Dahai and I had no choice but to bow our hands to the air: "Thank you for this friend for bringing us out." ”

When I got to the house, I found that some of these houses were broken, but on the whole it was okay, I looked at these houses, the doors were still locked, and they looked heavy, and they should not be rotten, there were a lot of wood piled up in front of the house, Song Dahai did not enter the house, but took some wood, and then found some small branches, I said: "Brother Song, let's hurry into the house, you listen to the wolf howl, the wolf should be coming soon." ”

Song Dahai said: "It's just because it's coming soon, I lit the fire, because in this world, in addition to people, jackals, tigers and leopards are afraid of fire, let's light the fire first, as long as we spend this night, we can find a way to get out tomorrow." ”

As he spoke, he took out a foreign fire wrapped in oiled paper, lit a small branch, and when the fire was bigger, he put a large branch on it, and after a while, the fire became bigger, and the blazing flame illuminated the surroundings. After lighting it, Song Dahai put some large logs, so that the fire could last for a long time and burn all the time.

The fire gives people a sense of security, and it lights up the surroundings, and after we got the fire, we looked towards those houses, and the largest of them seemed to be the rice seedling room where the hostages and meat tickets were held before, what are meat tickets? The status of the kidnapped person in the family is also taken into account when the horse kidnaps the ticket. Holding a boy - kidnapping a little boy from a large family, especially the only child who is pampered, their family is often willing to pay a large amount of money to pay the ransom in order to ensure the continuation of the bloodline; Tie up the express ticket - the girl to be married, because the mother-in-law's house does not want it overnight, and her family will be forced to pay the money immediately to redeem it on the same day. If the head of the family is a dutiful son, Ma Zi will choose to kidnap the old lady or old lady of the family. Of course, the first choice for Ma Zi to kidnap the ticket is still the head of the house and the shopkeeper, because they are the pillars of the family, and if they don't redeem him, the family will be in chaos; is also because they are the head of the family, and their words count, and the letter can be effective when written at home.

The door of the house is made of some large wood, and you can see the inside, but the thick wood is obviously solid. Probably because there was no one to live in, and no one was detained, so the door of the house was not locked, and with a slight push, the door opened, and when we entered, we alarmed the birds inside, and there was a burst of chirping, and then we flew out.

At this time, I took out a burning firewood from the fire, brought it as a torch, and then with Song Dahai and two people, arched my hands in front of the house, and I said: "Friends inside, the two of us are passing by the treasure land, disturbing you, there is something to disturb, please forgive me, we will leave tomorrow." ”

There is no one living in this house, but you have to say hello, because the lonely ghost likes this kind of house the most, not to mention in the mountains and forests, even at home, the new house has not been lived in for more than three years, and there will be invisible friends living in it. When we went in, we found that the house was very strong, there was a lot of grass in the house, but it was all rotten, there was an open sky on the roof, the beams of the house were covered with mushrooms, and there was a strong musty smell everywhere.

Song Dahai said: "This place is strong, if the wolves come, let's take refuge in this room." ”

However, the musty smell in the house was too strong, Song Dahai and I stayed for a while and then went out first, probably because of the fire, the wolves stopped not far away, and they didn't dare to come here, so we added some wood to the fire to make the fire bigger. After I finished eating the dry food, I looked into the woods, and wondered how there were so many small fireballs in the woods that flashed green? So I told Song Dahai about it, and when Song Dahai heard this, he looked towards the woods, and it didn't matter if he saw it, he stood up and said, "It's not good, we are surrounded by wolves, those are the eyes of wolves, we have to add some firewood, and then go to the house." ”

As we spoke, the two of us put a few thick logs into the fire, and then went to the room, because there was no door bolt or anything like that, Song Dahai took out the climbing rope, and then used it as a chain, directly entangled the door and door frame, and made a solid one.
