Chapter 222: Crying
The third grandfather looked at me and Lu Hengming with innocent eyes, and he didn't know that he was afraid to continue to stuff food into his mouth, Lu Hengming raised his fist to teach the third grandfather a lesson, I hurriedly grabbed Lu Hengming's arm.
Moreover, remind him that the third grandfather has some problems with his spirit, and he is too old to withstand his fists at all, in case it is broken, then this matter will be even more difficult to do.
Lu Hengming is not stupid, if you think about it carefully, you naturally understand that what I said makes sense.
"Then the young master, you should let this old man hurry up, otherwise, he will take us around this mountain to play in circles, and when we run out of food and water, won't we have to go down the mountain again? This is a waste of effort. Lu Hengming said, and stared at the third grandfather.
And the third grandfather was still smirking at Lu Hengming, eating with a chirp in his mouth.
I hurriedly pulled the third grandfather aside and asked softly, "Third grandfather, do you remember what you did when you went up the mountain today?" ”
"Hey, hey, hey." He laughed, raised the meat in his hand, and was about to give it to me.
It seems that he forgot, I thought carefully about the conversation between Lu Hengming and the third grandfather yesterday, and the third grandfather seemed to be very sensitive to the word "Gu Yue".
So, with the mentality of giving it a try, he asked the third grandfather: "Third grandfather, back then, after you took Gu Yue and them up the mountain, which road did you take?" ”
As soon as he heard my question, his expression immediately changed, and his chaotic eyes gradually became sharper.
I saw him look around, and immediately shook his head full of gray hair violently, and said in his mouth: "Go down, go down, at night, there is something in the night!" ”
"Third grandfather, don't be afraid, tell me something?" I put my hands on the shoulders of the third grandfather and comforted the third grandfather.
The third grandfather pushed my hand away and shouted loudly: "There is something, there is something, go down the mountain, go down the mountain!" ”
After shouting this several times, he turned to rush down the mountain.
Where can Lu Hengming be able to control the third grandfather, he grabbed the third grandfather's tattered coat and threatened: "You old thing, if you don't lead the way, believe it or not, I will kill you now!" ”
"Don't kill me, don't kill me." The third grandfather waved his hands in horror.
"Then hurry up and lead the way." Lu Hengming glared at the third grandfather with an angry face.
The third grandfather shuddered: "But there is really something in this mountain." ”
"What's the matter, I, Lu Hengming, am not afraid of anything." Lu Hengming said with a calm face.
The third grandfather glanced around again in a panic, and then lowered his voice and said, "Snake! There is a great serpent on this mountain! ”
"Hmph, I must be something amazing, isn't it a snake? Lead the way, hurry! Lu Hengming's tone suddenly increased several degrees.
"Shhhhh The third grandfather looked at Lu Hengming nervously and gestured at him to sit and shout.
Lu Hengming was annoyed, and without saying a word, he grabbed the neck of the third grandfather.
"Lord Lu Yin!" I shouted.
"This dead old man is playing tricks on me!" Lu Hengming roared angrily.
The third grandfather's face turned pale with fright, and in the end, Qian'er, who had not made a sound, spoke.
I saw him walk in front of the third grandfather, and when the third grandfather saw his face, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say a word more.
Qian'er smiled at the third grandfather and said, "This is your last chance, if you don't grasp it well, then I'll do it?" ”
Qianer opened his mouth as he spoke, and the third grandfather suddenly let out an exclamation, and the teeth in Qianer's mouth actually turned jagged, which was very terrifying.
I pulled the third grandfather to my side, and he was frightened, but he seemed to be much more awake, and he walked forward tremblingly, as if he wanted to take us to our destination at once.
As he walked, his body trembled, and when I asked him to slow down, he refused to just walk forward.
In the end, after walking for three hours in a row, I felt that we were almost about to reach the top of the mountain, and there were more and more graves around, although the third grandfather was in a hurry to take us to that place now, but, after all, he was too old to walk.
We were all tired from walking all day, so we sat on the floor and rested on the spot.
The third grandfather sat down and drank a few sips of water, and I gently stroked his back to help him smooth out.
But not long after he sat down, his body trembled, and then he slowly stood up and shouted, "Ghost, there is a ghost!" ”
His voice attracted everyone's attention, and I also looked in the direction where the third grandfather was looking, but I didn't see anything, there were only a few graves over there.
"Third grandfather, you're too tired to look at it." I was about to help him sit down, but he shook his head desperately and said to me, "I, I, I saw your grandma, yes, it's your grandma." ”
As the third grandfather spoke, he turned sideways and hid behind me.
"You said you saw my grandma?" I know very well that my grandmother is not "dead".
Could it be that grandma is also on this mountain? So I walked towards the grave bag that the third grandfather had just seen.
As a result, the back of the grave bag was empty, and there was no trace of the grandmother at all.
"Third grandfather, you are dazzled and wrong." I said this, but my eyes still glanced towards the vicinity of the grave.
On the edge of this tomb, I saw some loose loess, which had obviously just been trampled on.
It seems that grandma really followed.
"There really is, there really are ghosts." The third grandfather said to himself.
"Then lead the way quickly, and bring us to the entrance of the great tomb, and you can go." Lu Hengming glanced at the third grandfather and said lightly.
The third grandfather trembled, glanced at Qian Er behind Lu Hengming, nodded tremblingly, and then turned his head and walked forward.
He was holding on and walking forward, his legs shaking terribly.
"Third grandfather, you slow down." I hurried over to help him.
He immediately shook his head and kept saying: "I can't rest, hurry up, tomorrow morning when it's dawn, I, I, I can go down the mountain." ”
The third grandfather was in a hurry to take us to that place, and then he would go down the mountain.
So, an old man who was already extremely tired could walk faster than us.
The people behind them carrying wooden boxes were a little unbearable, they were the most tired, we were all empty-handed, but they were carrying weights, carrying such a big thing on the mountain road all day, it was normal for physical exhaustion.
"Stop here and rest." After walking for another two hours at night, Lu Hengming watched those people staggering with boxes, and immediately signaled to stop.
I also hurriedly asked the third grandfather to sit down, in fact, in the end, I dragged the third grandfather forward.
Therefore, when this stopped, the third grandfather almost sat on the ground, waved his hands, and stumbled and said that he could no longer walk.
Everyone stopped, resting against the dirt slope, because they had not had a good rest after walking for a long time, and now after sitting down, the night breeze blew, but they all closed their eyes tiredly.
The third grandfather fell asleep not long after closing his eyes, he was really tired, and he fell asleep almost immediately after lying down.
Lu Hengming also sat cross-legged on one side with his eyes closed, except for the whistling wind in this mountain, there was no other sound.
It's just that, in the past, I never knew that this mountain was so high, probably because the third grandfather took us to take us down for too long at the beginning.
"Lin Xi, are there really ghosts on your mountain?" Chu Yao hadn't spoken much along the way, and now that she stopped to rest, she spoke, presumably she had been holding back for a long time.
"No, you should hurry up and get some rest." As I spoke, I closed my eyes and leaned tiredly on the dirt slope, gradually becoming a little blurred.
I don't know how long it took, but I suddenly felt someone gently shaking my arm, I opened my eyes again, and found that it was Chu Yao, she was shaking my arm nervously, but her eyes kept scanning around.
"What's wrong?" I asked with a yawn.
"Lin Xi, you, you, did you hear any strange sounds?" Chu Yao opened his mouth and asked me.
When I saw her nervous look, I immediately listened carefully, and found that in the whistling of the wind, there was also a faint mixture of what seemed to be a woman's cry.
The cry was intermittent and very faint, and I listened carefully for a long time before I was sure that there was indeed a cry.
"Is it a female ghost?" Chu Yao's eyes widened, and she looked at me and asked.
When I heard this, I immediately shook my head: "Probably not." ”
After speaking, I stood up and listened carefully, and found that the voice seemed to come from behind Lu Hengming and them.
"Where are you going?" Chu Yao grabbed my hand nervously.
"I'll take a look." I pushed Chu Yao's hand away and quietly walked in front of Lu Hengming, and when I walked to the back of this, I was sure that the sound came from the wooden box that Lu Hengming and the others carried up the mountain.
So, he reached out and tried to move the lid of the box, but it turned out that the lid was tied with rope, but there was a hole in the side.
I crouched down and squinted into the hole, only to be met with a dilated eye.
"Smack!" With a bang, a hand fell on my shoulder at this time, my body suddenly trembled, and I raised my head to look behind me, and found that the person standing behind me was a thin monkey.
The skinny monkey made a boo gesture at me, and then walked towards where I was sitting.
"What's there?" Chu Yao couldn't help but ask.
"It's an animal." What I was thinking about in my heart should be people, but in order not to scare Chu Yao, I can only say that it is an animal.
After hearing this, she seemed to breathe a sigh of relief: "But how can animals make sounds like people?" ”
"It's like a child crying, there's nothing strange about it, you can continue to rest." I waved at Chu Yao and motioned for her to sit down.
She seemed to know that the skinny monkey had to stand aside and listen to something important to me.
The thin monkey glanced in the direction of Lu Hengming, lowered his voice again, and whispered in my ear: "I seem to have a way to find the entrance to the tomb!" ”
