Chapter 14: Speculation
Speaking of the "mountain god" mentioned by the two inspectors, Li Chuanshui and Zheng Xiaolu mentioned a strong curiosity together.
At that time, Zheng Xiaolu couldn't help but say: "When the two security guards just now talked about the mountain god of Butcher Knife Mountain, their voices trembled, I think...... It must be a pretty powerful thing......"
Listening to Zheng Xiaolu's evaluation, Wang Daqi on the side also nodded and asked, "That's right, that's right!" Today, I was surprised when I saw the Buddha statue smiling, I'm afraid there must be spirits in this mountain, right...... The mountain god in the mouth of the security guard is the sugar god we want to catch, right? ”
Regarding Wang Daqi and Zheng Xiaolu's speculation, Li Chuanshui did not respond directly, he just lowered his head and twisted his eyebrows, thinking about the words of the two security guards just now and the discussion of Daqi.
Now Li Chuanshui knows that this mountain is far more lively than it seems, although it is only less than 100 meters high, but all kinds of characters, during the gathering of spirits, forming a strange pattern of you have me, I have you, and those tour guides even use a certain phenomenon formed by spirits to deceive and collect money, as if some kind of "mutually beneficial" ecosystem has been formed.
Because of this, Li Chuanshui felt more and more that things here were not so simple, if the matter of inviting the sugar god was not done well, I am afraid that there would really be some chaos.
And if it is really as Wang Daqi said, that sugar god is the so-called mountain god, Li Chuanshui is a lot relieved in his heart, I am afraid that the real mountain god means something else, and it is some kind of uncontrollable power of Li Chuanshui......
Following those miscellaneous thoughts, Li Chuanshui felt that his mind was a little messed up.
Of course, although Li Chuanshui was upset, he also knew. There's no way to just sit here and think about it, and in the current situation, we can't let this worry shake the confidence of the team.
Therefore, after shaking his head, Li Chuanshui looked at Wang Daqi and Zheng Xiaolu with an expectant face, and said with a smile as relaxed as possible: "Two! We can't solve the problem without theory and practice! Rather than having that guessing time...... It's better to get down to business! ”
Listening to Li Chuanshui's words, Zheng Xiaolu nodded, still looking full of anticipation, but Wang Daqi looked a lot hesitant.
When Wang Daqi heard that Li Chuanshui was going to "come hard", he was very unhappy and asked, "This ...... Not quite right? Let's go so recklessly, what should we do if we meet the mountain god? ”
Wang Daqi's hesitation was quite cowardly, so Li Chuanshui and Zheng Xiaolu listened to his hesitation, and their faces were disappointed, and even Xiao Jiu'er, who had been secretly observing, also said with a burst of mockery: "Look! I'm not wrong, right? Your brother, that is, the dead loach can't block the wall, give him a chance to save the beauty and eat swan meat, but he doesn't even have the courage to be a toad ......".
Xiao Jiu'er's words and Zheng Xiaolu's eyes made Li Chuan unable to go off the table.
Because of this, Li Chuanshui, who was so angry, had to make a forced move against Wang Daqi!
After patting Wang Daqi's shoulder blade fiercely, Li Chuanshui told Daqi: "Wang Daqi! If you don't leave, the fawn and I can go! We wish you a great time playing with water snakes on this banyan tree! ”
"Water Snake?!" Wang Daqi was stunned when he heard this, stood up from between the vines of the banyan tree, patted his butt and shouted, "Where is the water snake?" Where are the water snakes? ”
Seeing Daqi shouting like a madman, Li Chuanshui really shook his head for this unsuccessful friend, and then pointed to a place under the water and said, "That's not? Staring at your ass! ”
Li Chuanshui's last sentence made Daqi, who was naturally timid and afraid of death, unable to sit still any longer.
Li Chuanshui and Zheng Xiaolu saw him suddenly jump from between the branches and slopes onto the riverbank, and the speed of his disappearance was comparable to that of an athlete in the Olympic Games......
Seeing that Wang Daqi's ass finally moved its nest, Li Chuanshui and Zheng Xiaolu both looked at each other and smiled, and then the two of them also walked through the guard one after the other, and followed the footsteps of Daqi, and then entered the cemetery on the mountain behind Pudu Temple.
Go to the mountainside laurel tree to ask the sugar god, Li Chuanshui and they have to walk a long way along the mountain road, this section of the road, although it looks not far, but it is quite laborious to walk.
And at night, because Li Chuanshui is a tourist who is secretly stranded near the scenic spot, they don't dare to turn on the lights, and they don't even dare to blatantly walk the road.
In the case of not daring to walk fast and not walking fast, circling between the cemetery and the weedy mountain road, such a speed can be imagined, so after they set off, a full hour later, Li Chuanshui and his party walked under the huge laurel tree with difficulty, looked up, and prepared to start the formal ceremony of inviting the sugar god.
In the cold stars of the moonlit night, the laurel tree in front of Li Chuanshui still looks luxuriant, but because it is at night, this tree not only gives people a sense of vicissitudes and simplicity, but also gives people an extra eerie and strange touch.
It's like ...... This laurel tree is like a huge human head, staring at the two black hole eyes, looking at Li Chuanshui and the others who are under the tree, ready to attack it.
Regardless of whether the laurel tree was a human head or something, Li Chuanshui was determined to "rectify" it at this time, so after he whispered sorry, he lowered his head and bent down, took off his backpack carrying various tools and materials, and began to invite the sugar god.
However, just when Li Chuanshui had just unzipped the backpack, Ms. Zheng Xiaolu behind him suddenly patted him on the shoulder with eagerness.
Then, with an eager voice, Zheng Xiaolu pointed to the end of the mountain road and whispered to Li Chuanshui: "Someone is coming!"
"Someone's coming?!" Zheng Xiaolu's words startled Li Chuanshui and staggered.
Then, Li Chuanshui instinctively looked back and looked at the place where the deer was pointing, but happened to see three human figures, one red and two white, bouncing along the mountain road under the light of a flashlight, rushing towards the place where they were.
Seeing that there was such a mistake at this time, Li Chuanshui scolded "bastard" in his heart, and he had to endure helplessness, put away the things that had just leaked out one by one, and looked for a place for everyone to hide.
The laurel tree where Li Chuanshui is located grows on the edge of a cliff tens of square meters high, and this place is surrounded by rocky cliffs on three sides, except for the two mountain roads up and down, there are only some shrubs close to the few roots that can hide.
Therefore, in desperation, Li Chuanshui, Zheng Xiaolu, and Wang Daqi had no choice but to throw everything into the small bushes and grass, and then the three of them followed into it like mice, crawling on the ground, motionless through the cracks in the grass, observing the situation outside.
And at the moment when Li Chuanshui and the others had just lurked, the three people who held flashlights and came down the mountain road also happened to walk directly below the old laurel tree.
