Chapter 3: Holes in the Mountains

"Eldest sister, to be honest, this slag porridge must not have been grown in the ground, right?" Xiaolan, who had a heart, couldn't bear it, sat down on the bench and asked. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½

Hearing this, the village chief's daughter-in-law glanced at the village chief, the village chief just nodded and didn't say anything, and then the village chief's daughter-in-law pursed her lips and smiled and said: "The girl is right, where is there a dealer in the field, these are all ten miles away from the village, and even the drinking water is transported from there."

"Oh? Isn't it close to the mountains? "Zhang Fatzi is here!

"You...... Are you going to go to the mountains? The village chief immediately understood.

"Don't hide it, we are an advance archaeological team of the country, mainly responsible for the expedition mission, and entering the mountains is our task." Captain Wu Song succinctly stated our identity.

After saying that, the village chief lowered his head and laughed after a moment, as if he was laughing at us, and as if he was laughing alone, his laughter did not sound very comfortable!

Something trembling!

"Is there a problem, village chief?"

The dishes and chopsticks haven't moved yet, and when I asked, I saw the village chief's daughter-in-law falling into tears, which ......

What the hell is going on? All of us were silent and didn't speak, quietly watching the village chief laughing, and the village chief's daughter-in-law crying!

Perhaps the village chief felt that he had lost his temper and raised his head to stop laughing, but his eyes were red. Then he said to his daughter-in-law, "Don't cry, but go into the house and weep."

Unexpectedly, his daughter-in-law wiped her tears and really went into the house to cry, and his daughter-in-law's crying was intermittent, deliberately suppressed but audible.

It's not my fault! I didn't say anything! Could it be that you are talking about going into the mountains?

The village chief made a slight adjustment, "Ahem" and "let a few people laugh, do you really want to go into the mountain?" ā€

There seems to be a deep meaning in the words.

"Of course, this is our job, just say whatever you want to say, village chief." Xiaolan seemed to be very unhappy with the village chief's questioning.

"A few years ago, a few people like you came, and they said they wanted to go to the mountains, but they didn't know how to go, and they needed someone to be a guide, and they took out a lot of money, and my son became their guide."

"So you still have a son!" Zhang Fatzi, this guy is really unpleasant, and he is talking at this time.

"Eh, don't speak, listen to the village chief." Captain Wu Song glared at Zhang Fatzi sternly.

"Oh, good."

"It's okay" The village chief shook his hand, stopped, and took out a small white plastic medicine bottle and a pile of cigarette paper in his pocket, tore off one of the cigarette papers, and put the rest back in his pocket, opened the small box and shook rhythmically, so skilled that no cigarette shreds fell.

Looking at the village chief like this, he put the small box containing tobacco back in his coat pocket, took out the foreign fire and lit it, the village chief took the cigarette in his mouth and touched the foreign fire and lit it, sucked hard, and gently exhaled.

It seemed that the village chief's sadness had filled the whole house with the smoke, and then he said lightly: "I do have a son, if he is still alive, I guess his children will run away."

"It's not all your fault, it wasn't you who coveted that money in the first place, how could this happen!"

Unexpectedly, the village chief's daughter-in-law stood behind us at this time and did not notice it, the village chief's daughter-in-law's accusation, the village chief couldn't say a word, maybe only the dry cigarette roll in his hand could make him comforted.

Xiaolan was very smart, and hurriedly got up and pulled the village chief's daughter-in-law back to the dining table and sat down, and hurriedly said, "What happened?" Could it be that there are tigers, leopards, and jackals in the mountains? ā€

The topic needs to be shifted, you can't always be sad, there must be something wrong in the mountains, and I believe that the story in the mountains should be what our group of people want to know.

"The girl is so pretty, sit down." The village chief's daughter-in-law quickly changed her sad face and praised Xiaolan coldly, but Xiaolan was a little blindsided.

When Xiaolan sat back, the village chief's daughter-in-law said: "Five years ago, my son was in love with a beautiful girl in the village, and we were all very much in favor of talking about marriage, including the woman's parents. The dates were all set, but a few days before the wedding came, five people came, and they were dressed like you......"

The village chief's daughter-in-law turned her face sideways and pointed at the village chief, and said viciously: "It's this old thing, he asked my son to be a guide for them for money, and the result was ...... Alas! The village chief's daughter-in-law finally put down the hand pointing at the village chief and lowered her head with a sigh.

Five years have passed, and when it comes to the mountain, I didn't expect them to be so sensitive to sadness, which shows that they miss their son, the pain of losing their son, and the deep self-blame for the mistakes they made. Unforgettable is just talking, even if the years are indelible.

"Why do so many young men in the village have to go to him?" At this time, I thought that things are not so simple, there must be a hidden secret.

The village chief's daughter-in-law looked up at me, then lowered her head again and said, "Yes, there are so many young men in the village, but none of them are the same age as my son, they say they need a 19-year-old boy, and my son is exactly 19 years old."

"Why should they do this? And didn't you think it was strange at the time? "And such a thing! There are no wonders in the world!

The village chief snuffed out the cigarette, and he replied to me in a hoarse voice: "I didn't think about anything else at the time, because they gave a very high price, just to be a guide, how easy it would be!"

The village chief spread out his hands, his eyes were a little shiny at the moment, and the questioning swept over each of our faces, and his puzzled expression was always hanging, as if he wanted to get our approval!

"The whole day passed, it was late at night, and the road into the mountain was not too far, and it would not take a day at all. I dragged a few young and strong men with me, and the night path was not easy, only tall trees and steep slopes. Nothing was found. ā€

"The next morning, I dragged the young man who was with me last night to the mountain, I was eager to see my son, I regretted very much why I took the money, but there was no place in the mountain, the sharp-eyed young man found a hole, and when we went in we found six bodies, they were the five men and my son!"

The village chief's tears could no longer be suppressed, "It was from that time that everyone in the village did not dare to go to the mountains, but only went to pick and fetch water ten miles away from the village. ā€

Finally got to know Harao, "Village Chief, can you tell us where the specific place of the hole in the mountain is?" Captain Wu Song said.

The village chief wiped his tears, stabilized his mood and said, "Do you still want to go?" It's hard to find that place! Weed over, it's hard to find without careful searching, and even now you have to bring a few people with you to find it. ā€

"I don't think so, as long as I know the location, I believe it won't take long to find it." Xiaoqin finally spoke.
