I asked the mandrill, it looked at me blankly, hesitated slightly, and whispered in my ear, I suddenly gave it a blank look, "Go by yourself or will I take you?" ”

It's not used to talking, so it gestures with its meat claws, which means to go by itself, and I asked the eldest brother who drove to stop first, and the mandrill has to go to the toilet.

After the tricycle stopped, I waved my hand at the mandrill, and it jumped out of the car obediently, and slipped into the grass on the side of the road, and I shouted don't run too far, and the mandrill snorted, still inarticulate, but it was indeed um.

The eldest brother who was driving was suddenly surprised, "You cat god can still speak?" ”

I shook my head and said no, you heard it wrong, the eldest brother looked at the direction where the mandrill ran a few times with a strange face, and then said unlikely, "Young man, I think your cat god is very spiritual, how long has it been with you?" ”

I said that it has been a few months, and the eldest brother who drove the car suddenly said with envy, "Tsk, you are so smart in a few months, you might as well tell you, every family in our village has raised a cat god, and some have been raising it for fifteen or sixteen years, but those cat gods are not as smart as you, you are lucky!" ”

I smiled, I was indeed lucky, the mandrill had been with me for so long, and it really brought me a lot of good luck.

This big brother asked me what I usually eat, how did I raise so smart? I said just give some fruit corn or something to eat, and the rest of the time free-range.

After hearing this, the eldest brother's face suddenly became serious, "Young man, I didn't say you, you can't abuse the cat god like this!" This is not right. The cat god eats meat, and you have to give it meat every meal. ”

I was speechless and didn't know what to say, I could only deal with a few words, I admit that I first abused the mandrill, but then it bought whatever it wanted, which is not abuse, right?

Fortunately, the eldest brother just said something to make me pay attention, so he didn't continue to talk about this topic.

I then asked him why their village worships bobcats. The boss said that it was the lynx that saved the people in the village, but how it was saved, the boss didn't say.

The eldest brother said a little excitedly, "This is a long story, I heard my grandfather say, about three hundred years ago, something big happened in our village, when our place was windy for three or four days in a row, the wind was terrifying, the sky was dark, the wind was so strong that the small trees were directly scraped off, the house was about to be overturned, and several people were injured at that time, and the whole village had to find a mountain to hide in the cave, but I didn't expect that when I went up the mountain, someone saw two things ......flying in the sky."

"Two things flying? Bird? "I was immediately curious, can I fly only birds?

The eldest brother shook his head, "It's not a bird, there were big things in the village at that time, and one of them was a cat god, which flew in the sky." ”

I couldn't help but ask, "What about the other one?" What does it look like? ”

"The other one seems to be a person and it doesn't seem to be, anyway, no one looked at the situation at the time, the other one was like, it seemed to be fighting with the cat god, which led to a strong wind here, when the people of our village hid in the cave for two days, the wind stopped, and the cat god and another thing were gone, at that time the people in the village were very puzzled, but the wind stopped and didn't have time to think about it, after all, everyone went down the mountain to rebuild the house, but I didn't expect to go down the mountain, I saw a place in a mess, And a big tree stained red with blood......" he said, also amazed, as if he had been there hundreds of years ago.

My expression changed slightly, the trees were stained red with blood, you can imagine how fierce the fierce battle was, is it really a mandrill? Killed by something else at the time?

The eldest brother continued, "The big tree is still on the mountain, you can go and see if what I said is true or false, at that time, the people in the village were also surprised for a long time, before they went down the mountain together, and then they thought that the cat god left, but they didn't expect to go back, they found that a glowing bead appeared in every household in the village, as if it was for compensation, and since then, our village has been considered to have been in good weather, planting everything is a bumper harvest, and no one in the village is sick anymore, and there has been no ...... again."

"So the big guy came out of his opinion to build a cat god statue to worship, someone took something to worship, and the food was gone, no matter how much, even if it was just an apple, a bunch of grapes was sent over and it was gone, but the money thing was sent to the next morning, it would appear in the home of the person who sent the thing, anyway, at that time, the worship of the cat god was considered to be responsive, and there was even a year of drought, and the crops in the village were not harvested, but the rice in the rice tank of each family was always not finished, No matter how much you cook that day, even if the rice jar is empty, it will be full again when you wake up the next morning...... It doesn't stop until after the harvest of the second year, and these are the gifts of the cat gods,......"

The eldest brother said, and then sighed, "It's a pity that one night, someone saw and heard a lot of movement, and ran to the cat god statue to see, and found that the cat god statue was crack......ed."

"What do you mean? Why does it crack? I asked.

The eldest brother shook his head, "We don't know, anyway, after the cat god statue cracked, the people in the village sent fruits, and they were still there until they were rotten, and then the people in the village began to get sick, and there was no response to the cause of the cat god...... The next year there was a drought, and there was still no harvest in the village, but the rice in the rice bowl was no longer eaten no matter how it was before, but it was gone, and it did not return to its original state...... The cat god is gone......"

He sighed helplessly, I fell silent, I felt that what he said should be the mandrill, and the mandrill did not leave, but died...... They were killed, and without the protection of the mandrills, everything in their village will return to its previous state......

Where did the mandrill die? I was touched in my heart, and then asked them if they had ever looked for the cat god? The big brother nodded and said that he had looked for it, but he didn't find it.

I think the mandrill should have stayed in this place for a while, maybe he was injured when he was fighting with that thing, and he stayed here to heal, and by the way, he took care of the villagers here, which is considered to be a yin virtue, but the mandrill did so many good things to them, why did they end up being killed?

I sighed, the mandrill may have died a terrible death in his life, who killed the mandrill?

"After so many years, the cat god has not returned, and there are fewer and fewer people in our village......" the eldest brother continued.

I didn't know what to say, so I waited for a while, and when I saw that the mandrill hadn't come back, I called out the mandrill's name, but there was no response to me, and I was startled and hurriedly jumped out of the car to look for the mandrill.

I looked for a while and still didn't respond to me, but fortunately there were no traces of a fight here, otherwise I would have died in a hurry, and this guy actually went into the village by himself? Don't wait for me?

I hurriedly asked how far the eldest brother was from the village? The eldest brother said soon, just in front, I asked him to take me into the village quickly, the eldest brother nodded and drove me in, and soon you can see a village in the deep mountains, the house is very old and dilapidated, scattered, and every family really has a bobcat squatting at the door, I saw these bobcats and immediately felt so ugly, but they all looked very strange, and the fur was messy and dry, so compared, I suddenly felt that my mandrill was as beautiful as a fairy.

These bobcats all looked at me, with anthropomorphic respect on their faces, they bowed their heads, and their bodies fell down, as if they were greeting someone, and my expression changed slightly when I saw this scene, is it because I have been with the mandrill for too long, and I have the smell of the mandrill on my body, so they are like this?

The eldest brother who brought me in was also shocked, and other people in the village walked out, and saw their own bobcat like this, but also looked surprised and dazed, I quickly asked the eldest brother to take me to the cat god statue first, the eldest brother came back to his senses and nodded, took me there, more than ten minutes later, I saw a temple-like place in the village, very simple, but very clean, and there was a one-person sized bobcat statue in the house.
