"The god of the mountain in the flesh? What do you mean? After hearing Grandpa Sun say this, the three of us were a little surprised.

"Isn't it like some physical bodhisattva in the south?" Xu Man asked.

"Xu Man is right, that is, there is a dried corpse in this mountain god, and this thing is more common in the south, but this is also my inference, whether it is a dry corpse or not, you have to break this mountain god to know."

"What do you mean, to smash this mountain god?" I asked Grandpa Sun.

"What else else?"

"But it's just such a little place, you can't use it!"

The four of them were already crowded just now, and with the addition of a mountain god statue, it was almost impossible to turn around.

"Then we have to get out of the way, what if this is the captive source of those white moths?"

Grandpa Sun's decision, we naturally can't disobey, I saw him clasp his hands together, made three gestures to the mountain god, and muttered something offensive and something like that, Zhang Yu and I also did it.

"Are there any tools?" Grandpa Sun said to Zhang Yu.

"What tools?" Zhang Yu was stunned by Grandpa Sun.

"It's a hard tool, an axe, a hammer, or something like that?"

"Oh, yes, yes!" Zhang Yu took out a small hammer from his backpack, the size of a hammer head and a fist.

"Yours is yours!" Xu Man glanced at Zhang Yu, her eyes were full of approval, her expression made me very angry, how did this guy forget it just now, he didn't help you take a look at something on his back, and he took out such a thing at this time, you praise him.

Grandpa Sun took the hammer and chiseled it with a clang, this mountain god was originally made of clay, and after a few clicks, a crack broke out.

As the hard mud fell to the ground little by little, I saw that the flesh gradually revealed its true face, like a black and yellow dried corpse, with sunken eyes and sparse hair, and the arm we had pulled was the right arm of the dried corpse.

Xu Man hurriedly turned his back and didn't dare to look more.

But we didn't see any bug nests!

"Is there anything out of the ordinary?" Grandpa Sun asked me, and I quickly said no.

"That's not right!" Grandpa Sun made a puzzled expression, "Look at the back of his head." ”

I quickly looked at the back of the corpse's head, and to my startle, a white maggot was crawling out of the back of the head.

"There's something, there's something, it's maggots!" I screamed as I pointed to the back of the corpse's head.

"This maggot is the flesh of these white moths!" After Grandpa Sun said this, he used a short knife to cut a long hole in the stomach of the dried corpse's body, this cut didn't matter, the dense white maggots squeezed out of the mouth, and it was disgusting to see.

Xu Man said "ah", and turned his head back, I sympathized with Xu Man, first I was frightened by the dry corpse, and then I saw the insects, is this all a girl's vulnerability!

"I have bad eyes, look at a man, what's here?"

"It's all white bugs, disgusting to death!" I vomited.

"Found it! This is the source of captivity! Grandpa Sun said.

"You mean, those white moths outside are all born from these captive sources?"

Grandpa Sun nodded and pointed to the worms in the stomach of the dried corpse, "Although I can't see clearly, I've heard people say that this thing grows extremely fast, as long as some of the moths outside die, these maggots will evolve some of them immediately." ”

Sure enough, as the young man said, some maggots were small bugs just now, and in the blink of an eye, they had grown shells and wings.

"So what are we going to do?" I asked him.

"I've got to destroy this first!" Grandpa Sun turned around and asked Xu Man, do you have towel mineral water?

"Yes, yes!" Xu Man hurriedly took out these two things from his backpack.

"Wet the towel with mineral water and cover your nose, it might be a little choking for a while!"

The three of us hurriedly did so.

I saw Grandpa Sun take out all the mugwort rope from his pocket, twist them into a knot, and then light them with fire, which are still in the stomach of this dried corpse.

A puff of smoke immediately came out of the corpse's stomach, followed by a choking smell that made people breathless, and it is estimated that if we continue like this, we will not last long.

Xu Man's face was already a little blue, the lung capacity of girls was not as good as that of boys, and I felt that she was about to fall into a coma.

Seeing Xu Man like this, I didn't care about Zhang Yu's face, so I quickly dragged her over and covered her nose with my towel, I was afraid that if she fainted, she wouldn't be able to control herself and inhale too much smoke and dust.

Just when I was about to lose it, Grandpa Sun said, "Okay! ”

The smoke and dust gushing out of the dry corpse became a little smaller, and Grandpa Sun poured the remaining half bottle of mineral water into it, which was strange to say, the dense meat maggots just now were burned clean at the moment, as if there was nothing in it.

Xu Man was lying in my arms with a confused gaze, I knew that she was already a little delirious, and what was even more annoying was Zhang Yu, Xu Man was like this, this guy was still there holding a towel by himself.

"Oops! The cigarette is gone, no need to cover it! I said to Zhang Yu.

The guy moved the towel he was holding down slightly, and carefully sucked it through his nose, for fear that I would lie to him and feel safe, before taking the towel off the whole ground.

"You're optimistic about her!" I helped Xu Man into Zhang Yu's arms, just now because of Xu Man, I didn't dare to move, and my legs were already a little numb.

Zhang Yu took Xu Man, and I felt that he was a little reluctant, which made me even more angry.

I looked at the dried corpse in front of me and was very curious, so I asked Grandpa Sun, "You say, why did he keep this thing in captivity?" ”

"It's hard to say, but people who keep things in captivity have an idea, that is, they want to protect themselves or want captive insects to help them protect something." Grandpa Sun said.

I looked at this dried corpse, and I had some doubts in my heart, that is, how to keep this thing in captivity, this corpse must have been some years old, otherwise it would not have been like this.

Grandpa Sun also seemed to see my doubts, and said to me, "In fact, captive insects, it is the living who suffer, if people want to be kept in captivity, they have to swallow a number of insect cocoons in their own life, but these insect cocoons are not ordinary insect cocoons, they have been treated with special drugs and witchcraft, so they can survive decades and hundreds of years, and they are still alive." ”

"You mean, those maggots in the stomach of the dried corpse are decades or hundreds of years old?" I asked Grandpa Sun.

"Hmm!" Grandpa Sun nodded and continued, "After this person dies, these cocoons will be nourished by the flesh and blood left over from the corpse, and they will be able to develop. After development, it is not immediately possible to come out, because after all, the corpse is an enclosed space. ”

"However, I don't understand one thing, don't they come out when they develop and become maggots?" It was Zhang Yu who said this.

"So, in this person, he encloses himself in a small space, and the statue of the mountain god is a closed space, and the cocoon is in the enclosed space, and it lacks oxygen, so it stops developing, because as I said just now, the cocoon is treated with special medicine and witchcraft, and when you see oxygen, these things can live."

"Then why are we here, these insects have just come out, we haven't touched this mountain god statue!"

After I said this, I suddenly remembered that when I was resting at night, I was in the same room with Grandpa Sun, while Xu Man and Zhang Yu were in the main hall.

The smoke was gone, Xu Man in Zhang Yu's arms gradually became more sober, and after listening to the words of whether I touched the statue of the mountain god, her face turned red all of a sudden, glanced at Zhang Yu, and said to me and Grandpa Sun, "Just now, just now, I did touch it." ”

I suddenly remembered the sound of "clang" and "clang", which was not when they touched the statue of the mountain god when they were doing that kind of thing.

Xu Man seemed to see my thoughts, and said with a red face, "Then Zhang Yu touched the idol, and then straightened it again!" ”

"I said, someone must have touched the statue of the mountain god, this statue has been around for some years, and the foundation is broken. After pouring, the oxygen went in, and these cocoons took the opportunity to develop, and they became these big moths, and they all came out. Grandpa Sun pointed to the tip of Zhang Yu's nose and continued, "You guys are really enough, you did filthy things in front of the gods, so you were punished." ”

Zhang Yu couldn't hold back after hearing this, "What do you mean, who are you talking about, whether the two of us are good or not, what does it have to do with you?" Be less nosy there. ”
