Sometimes we don't want to go the way we have walked because we don't want to face the past. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

When I woke up, I found myself still in the pony's van, wondering if last night's experience was a dream or real? Just as we were worrying about how to leave, a police car roared in.

This is a forest fire truck, going to Yehugou to deliver supplies, Brother Zhenmin is familiar with the driver of the police car, so he asked him to help repair the car.

The old policeman immediately refused, explaining: "I must rush to Yehugou immediately, otherwise the forest ranger Lao Jia will have to freeze to death there, if you are willing to wait, you can wait here for me to come back for a while." ”

Brother Zhenmin had no choice but to thank him, and the old Taoist priest reminded the old policeman: "The road to the mountain is not easy, but your car tires are tied with snow chains, it shouldn't be a problem!" ”

This policeman's surname is Ding, who used to work at the Xitui Township Police Station, he poked his head out of the car window and looked at Hongtuling, and saw that the mountain road had been covered with snow, so he frowned, and said to Brother Zhenmin: "Xiao Su, why don't you go to Yehugou with me, and I will drive you to the town when I come back." ”

Brother Zhenmin wanted to refuse, but the old Taoist priest responded: "It's okay, anyway, we are waiting here, I'm afraid that there will be no cars passing by here in this weather!" ”

I would also like to see the situation on the top of the slope of the ancient temple, is there an ancient temple there?

Brother Zhenmin agreed, then opened the door, he sat in the passenger seat, I sat in the back seat with the old Taoist, Xiaoma insisted on staying to repair the car, I couldn't persuade him, the old Taoist priest let him stay.

I rolled down the window and looked up the trail, only to see that the snow on the hillside was intact, and there were occasional wild animal footprints.

This is strange, I remember that I obviously rolled down from the top of the Hongtu Ridge, and the bruises on my body are still there, is it really a dream?

"Where are you going?" Lao Ding asked Brother Zhenmin while driving.

Brother Zhenmin replied casually: "Yesterday I attended the funeral of one of my fellow villagers, it was this Xiao Yuan's grandmother, who was going to return to Donggou, and I didn't want the car to suddenly break down when I arrived here!" ”

Lao Ding glanced at the old Taoist priest, and then asked: "This old brother looks at the eyes, isn't he a local?" ”

The old Taoist priest hurriedly explained: "I'm from Yiyang, brother, are you going to Yehugou?" ”

Lao Ding responded, and the pickup truck slowly climbed to the top of Hongtuling, and when he went downhill, he kept stepping on the brakes, driving cautiously, and no longer talking.

When we passed by the abandoned house halfway up the hill of the ancient temple slope, I hurriedly said: "Master Ding, please stop the car, I can't hold it back, I need to make it easier!" ”

Lao Ding was a little embarrassed and said: "It's not safe to park halfway!" ”

I insisted: "I'm really sorry, I really can't hold it back!" It's fine soon, you don't have to turn off the heat. ”

Lao Ding had no choice but to agree, stepped on the brake, and pulled the handbrake.

I hurriedly opened the car door and ran towards the abandoned house last night, the courtyard gate was already in tatters, and I rushed into the hall, which was full of cat poop and dogs, and a black cat was entrenched, and when he saw me breaking in, he immediately grinned in protest.

The windows on the back wall of the hall were broken, and a cold wind blew in.

The car horn sounded outside, and I turned to leave.

The car arrived at the top of the ancient temple slope, there is only a flat place here, but there is no ancient temple, so I asked Brother Zhenmin: "This is the ancient temple slope, why is it called this name?" ”

Brother Zhenmin responded: "How do I know, didn't you grow up here since you were a child?" ”

Lao Ding introduced: "There was originally an ancient temple here, but it was destroyed in the war a long time ago, and the wild fox ditch in front is even more hanging, it used to be a bandit's nest, but also a mass grave, until now no one wants to go there to spend the night, only this old Jia is a bachelor, not afraid of heaven and earth." ”

The slope of the mountain under the wild fox ditch is even steeper, Lao Ding held his breath, and Brother Zhenmin introduced: "This road has only been built in recent years, there are few cars in the past, there are many beasts in the ditch, but there are not many trees, only a few old hunters are willing to come here to hunt, and Lao Jia is a hunter." ”

The pickup truck could only drive to the bottom of the ditch in Yehu Gully, and Lao Jia's shack was halfway up the mountain, so the car could not drive up directly, so Lao Ding honked his horn to inform Lao Jia to come down to answer.

There was a dog barking on the earthen platform halfway up the mountain, and Lao Ding stopped the car and asked us to help unload the car together.

I picked up a bag of potatoes and a pot of oil, followed Lao Ding and walked up there.

The jackdaw was wailing in the cold wind, the old Taoist priest was carrying two bags of flour and walking at the end, and Brother Zhenmin was walking behind me with two plastic buckets, so I heard the old Taoist priest whisper to himself: "Here are poor mountains and bad waters, but I didn't expect that there is also a white tiger land in Biling." ”

With the barking of dogs, a black dog the size of a calf ran towards us, and Lao Ding immediately scolded.

We were greeted by an old hunter in a leather coat and hat, carrying a clay gun on his back.

This is Lao Jia, the forest ranger of Yehugou, who welcomed us into his adobe house, which was not well lit, but there was still a statue of a mountain god.

Putting down the potatoes and oil, I rubbed my sour hands and said, "There is also a piece of my grandfather's woodland here!" ”

Lao Jia had a scruffy beard, and a rosacea was particularly conspicuous, so he responded: "You are Xue Changsong's grandson, right?" ”

I nodded in agreement, and he said, "Yes, but after your grandfather died, your uncle has returned this forest land to the state, and there is no one else in this land except me who is willing to come and dare to come!" ”

Brother Zhenmin asked unconvinced: "Why? Could it be that there are still man-eating beasts here? ”

Lao Jia lit a bag of dry tobacco and proudly introduced: "There are a few beasts, they are not enough to trouble, the current beasts are afraid of people, I don't hide it from you, and I am not afraid of Lao Ding's jokes, as soon as it gets dark here, it will infiltrate people, and the people of the ancient temple slope will no longer go out when it gets dark, and now I am too, if there is a situation, let Lao Hei solve it!" He pointed to the big black dog lying on the ground.

Lao Ding immediately reminded him: "Lao Jia, it's the 21st century now, you can't preach feudal superstition anymore, any unjust ghosts and ghosts are ghosts in your heart!" ”

Lao Jia laughed twice and stopped talking.

Brother Zhenmin joked to Lao Ding: "Lao Ding, do you dare to spend the night here?" ”

Lao Ding shook his head and replied, "I still have a mission, besides, I can carry a guy with me?" If you hurt someone by mistake, it's not easy to do! ”

Lao Jia also echoed: "Actually, it's nothing, it's just that as soon as the sky is dark, there will be wolves howling and foxes in the mass grave, and the night owl and the old eagle play together, which makes people feel uncomfortable." ”

"In the summer, there are ghost fires, these are all phosphorus fires, how many times have I told you!" Lao Ding scolded.

Lao Jia responded, and Lao Ding said to Brother Zhenmin: "Xiao Su, accompany me out to have a look, as soon as winter comes, there will be restless guys who secretly go into the mountains to hunt, and they don't even want their lives, in case it causes an avalanche, it will be dangerous!" ”

After the two of them left, I muttered, "This is not a snowy mountain, how can it cause an avalanche?" ”

Lao Jia is usually used to being alone, but when he suddenly saw so many people, he opened the conversation box and said to me: "This place is usually very evil, and last night it was even more terrifying, the slope of the ancient temple was shrouded in a cloud of black gas, and I was so scared that I didn't dare to scream." ”

The old Taoist priest continued: "This is a mass grave, the light is not sufficient, and there is an excess of yin qi, which is normal!" ”

"Is it normal for a snowman to run all over the mountain?" Lao Jia questioned the head of the Exploration Dao.

"Snowman?" I pretended to wonder, "How can a snowman still run all over the mountain?" It's not a real person, it has legs? ”

Lao Jia laughed at himself: "That's me dazzled, I saw the wrong place!" ”
