Chapter 3: Going up the hill and discovering a "tomb"

When the motorcycle "squeak~" arrived, I put the car in the yard and returned it tomorrow.

When it was getting late, I took two bites and went to bed early.

The next morning, when I was sleepy-eyed, there was more sound of hoes raking the soil in the crops.

"Huh? Are you up? There is no fruit in the countryside, so let your dad take you to the mountains in the morning. Borrow a shotgun and get some game, and you can pick some mountain fruits. ”

"Good...... Ah cut~"

"What's wrong? Still frozen? I'm going to make you a bowl of porridge, just wait and call your dad to get up first! Then she went into the small kitchen, set up a pot on the earthen stove, scooped up a few bowls of rice, and began to cook porridge.

"Dad, get up!" The loud voice suddenly got into Ye Baiqiu, who was sleeping soundly in the room, and fell out of bed directly after a stumble.

"Oops~my waist~" Ye Baiqiu touched his waist and opened his hazy eyes.

He quickly lifted the quilt wrapped around his body, simply put on a few clothes and rushed out the door.

"What time is it? Still sleeping? ”

"Didn't I get two sips of wine last night and drink it? Sleepy, that's natural......"

"Mom asked me to tell you to go up the mountain to get some game to eat and some fruit."

"Really? Oh, I'll go, she's finally giving me a chance to go out and have fun! Ye Baiqiu suddenly opened his hazy eyes, and his pupils dilated.

The small broken steps under his feet also sped up a little, and his bent waist seemed to straighten a little.

"Hurry up, go up the mountain early, I can tell you, there are many good things on the mountain......" Listening to him chatter for a long time, Xiaolang also expressed his helplessness.

There are some wild beasts in Sumeru Mountain, for more than ten years, many wolves and foxes have entered the village to take away poultry, the older generation of people are stubborn in their thinking, and the feudal ideology remains, they have always thought that the fox is a "half-immortal", and killing wolves is a blasphemy.

In the following years, there were successive attacks by wild beasts on the village.

The village chief also had to keep up with the times, and went to the town to apply for a few shotguns and a certificate of use authority (circled dots, and a few stamps were stamped on the small book, presumably a gun license. )

"I had to borrow it from someone who had a shotgun hidden in my house, and it just cost some money. Don't say it, the shotgun has a lot of stamina, and sometimes it's easy to get a shoulder pain.

When your mother was pregnant with you, I just went up to the mountains and got a lot of game to make up for her. ”

"That's why she's so strong, so fat?" Xiao Lang asked rhetorically.

"Shhh

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, hurry up and borrow a gun to go up the mountain, save yourself the trouble~" Looking at Dad's cautious appearance like a mouse, it is estimated that he is scared.

After walking less than half a mile, I finally walked around to the door of a family, which was a relatively remote family in the village.

This family has the most guns in the whole village, and it is considered rich because of its abundance of ammunition. I heard that the family intercepted a batch of materials more than 20 years ago, and it is still used today.

Although it is not a splendid palace building, it is a square compound built of blue bricks.

There was a knock on the door, and on the door were two inverted rings, which were originally painted with gold paint, but were now mottled and dotted.

There is also a slightly raised statue in the center, protruding from the door frame, which seems to be a tiger head, a hideous tiger head!

Outside the door, there were two stone lions standing opposite each other, each with a long sword in their mouths.

"When did you come?" A head poked out from inside the door, obviously a family member, this kind of stubbornness that continues a century-old tradition, or even a thousand-year-old tradition.

I just don't know how they survived to this day.

"Borrow a gun......" Ye Baiqiu replied as if he had changed someone.

"Do you know the rules?"

"Regulars, know the rules." After answering plainly, Ye Baiqiu was a little impatient, and then the family closed the door and handed over a shotgun after a while.

"The rules are still the same, no price increases, the number of bullets remains the same, but you have to give a deposit."

"Yes, I believe in your Lin family." Ye Baiqiu took out two hundred-yuan bills from his pocket.

Xiao Lang couldn't look at it this time, and was stunned for a moment, and then eased up for a moment: "Are you crazy?" Giving so much money to someone casually? ”

"I know more than you do, so don't point fingers." Ye Baiqiu skimmed him.

"Is this your child? I'm still ignorant when I'm young. Jia Ding sighed.

"No, the children at home are not controlled, don't mind~" Ye Baiqiu relieved himself with a clever explanation.

Then he dragged him out of this strange courtyard. When they were left with only one back, the crack in the door was gently opened again, through a creepy pupil!

"Interesting~" Then the door was gently closed again, and Ye Baiqiu and his son walked between the forests.

The forest of Mount Meru is rich in resources, and the same is true, there are many wild beasts, but they are not too dangerous.

The green leaves on the mountain are still glowing with green, and one after another connects a sea of green and dark green.

It was not without ornamentation, the red and yellow fruits hung on the branches. Maybe it's because there is no grafting, and the fruit is not very large, but it is better than the quantity.

"That~ There are only a few places in the mountains where the fruit grows sweeter, I don't know if they have been picked. Later, I'll lead you to see it, and don't pick those little fruits! Some taste bitter, and some are a bit poisonous. ”

"You can't pick this, you can't pick that, what else can you do?"

"It's easy to say, be careful~ There are many beasts in the mountains! Even those poisonous insects are easy to prevent, those of us who often go into the mountains understand this, how do you understand~"

"Okay~ But please don't continue to talk to me about these 'big truths', don't forget the puppet at home~"

"Hurry up! Hurry up! When Ye Baiqiu heard this, he ran out of more than ten steps and shouted at Ye Lang behind him.

Ye Lang shook his head, walking on the muddy mountain road, but it was very difficult, and he didn't know why the person in front of him was walking so fast.

About 9 o'clock

The sun was already hanging in the air, and the scorching sun was blocked by the trees, and the wisps of sunlight turned into dappled dots and sprinkled with brilliance.

Two places have been visited, and in the first place, the fruit has been almost picked, leaving only some of the "late" fruits that are still green.

But I ran into a little rabbit there, and I was caught. It's just that the rabbit is too small, less than three or two, and it is estimated that I have met the little one.

Although the rabbit is small, it is also a piece of meat. When I arrived at another place, I picked some small fruits and reluctantly ate them, and the fruits were sweet and astringent, which may be the reason for the leftovers of the picking.

"It's like being swept away, and it's a shame that they can do it, Xiaolang come with me, I'll take you to a good place!" Ye Baiqiu stood up from a stone and headed towards the halfway up the mountain.

Halfway through the journey, Ye Lang asked what the rules were, but he seemed to be deliberately concealing it, and he spat out his words.

The shotgun hasn't been moved, and it's still on its back. But from the top of the forest trees, there was a rustling sound.

"I'm going, I've met something good! Hurry up and keep up! Ye Baiqiu hurried away at this moment, picking up the shotgun on his back.

"After half an hour of entanglement", a shadow finally fell from the sky and fell to the ground, and the bright red blood stained the black fertile soil. It's a monkey, but it's not a good guy and usually steals things from rural homes.

Even learn from weasels to drill the chicken shed to steal chickens to eat, this kind of monkey is bigger, I don't know what breed, the meat is also delicious.

It's just that there are sallowed cordons in front of him, and Ye Baiqiu was also stunned, and beads of sweat the size of beans flowed down.

"How did you get to this place?" Ye Baiqiu muttered. What was knocked down was a wild monkey that fell near the cordon.

"Dad, where is this?" Ye Lang pointed to the cordon in front of him.

"It's not the archaeological team back then, I heard that there are still dead people! At that time, there were not many people in the mountains to the halfway point of the mountain. Don't stay in this hellish place, it's almost over, go home~"

Leaving with two goods, Ye Lang secretly glanced there before leaving, but seemed to see a terrifying picture. Then, in order to get away from this place, he hurried down the mountain.

Ye Lang finally knew the rules, that is, to return the shotgun and pay some prey. The monkey gave it to them, and took the little rabbit home, and I was really worried that I would be scolded to death by the one in the family.

After walking less than half a mile, I arrived home. A roar turned around: "Where did you two go?" So late! ”

"Didn't you go up to the mountains to catch some game?" Ye Baiqiu lifted the little rabbit in his hand, showing pride.

"Hunting, why don't you go up the tree! Do you know that with a bad child, look at you, can you be a bit of a father? Such a little bit of a big rabbit is all piled up with fur skeletons! The sturdy old mother grabbed his ear.

"It hurts~ Let go~ The child is still here!" As soon as she heard that the child was still here, she finally let go of her hand, Ye Baiqiu thought that she had already survived the ordeal.

Who knows-"You come to my room." A cold word was terrifying, and the next thing was probably some screaming.

Ye Baiqiu shook his legs and got into the room.

Time passed quite quickly, and after a while, it was noon again, and Ye Baiqiu, who had some red marks on his face, seemed to hear some heavenly sound, and he was liberated, and drilled out of the room.

"By the way, what are you doing in that place in the mountains? Why haven't I heard of any artifacts in the mountains? ”

"Don't be mindful, the dead can't make money."

"I'll just ask and see if I'm satisfied. Are there any legends in the village about this? ”

"Yes, there is, just a few years ago, or my grandfather told me, there is a thousand-year-old tomb on this mountain, it seems to be an imperial tomb, I can't remember clearly. Don't ask! ”

"Okay, eat, eat" brought a plate of dishes, but Ye Lang didn't seem to have much appetite, and he kept paying attention to the imperial tomb.

"I'm full, let's go first." Ye Lang put down the dishes and chopsticks and walked out of the door.

"Huh? This kid still has a small half bowl of rice! I don't know if I'm really full or not. Ye Baiqiu, you wash some fruit for me and give it to him. ”

"What?"

"What, you're deaf?"

"I heard, I heard! I'm going to wash it. ”
