Wang Xiaotou and the evil eye separated, walked home, there were too many unexplained things happened this night, he was going to go to the county seat, sell those few Ming weapons, and there would be resources to attract people and accumulate resources for the future road.

Pack your luggage and take advantage of the dawn, as it is easy to encounter unclean things when you are in a hurry at night. Kneeling in front of the spiritual seat of the king's head, he said:

"Dad, I'm going out, it may be a long time before I come back, so I'll leave you at home! I will definitely fulfill your last wish! ”

He knocked his head on the ground three times, locked the door, and walked towards the mountain.

Wang Xiaotou's current house is on the mountainside of Abacus Mountain, Abacus is only the smallest one in the Wuling Mountain Range, and it is surrounded by more mountains, Wang Xiaotou has to walk half the way before night falls, and there is a place to live. Due to the inconvenience of transportation, you must go out of the mountains to see the road that gnaws and wows, the car in this era is already peerless, and there can be a horse or mule, which is the best means of transportation!

The journey was very difficult, and soon at noon, Wang Xiaotou rested next to an old tree and simply ate some steamed buns. When I started on the road, the trees around me were very large, and I had to be very careful when walking alone in the mountains, and there were many hungry wolves, which was very common in this era when the forest was not destroyed.

Soon, the night came a little bit, all kinds of howls became more and more miserable, and the moaning of wolves could be heard from time to time, Wang Xiaotou had walked very fast, but still not as fast as time passed, and this road had not been taken for at least three or four years. The reason why he went again was because there was a nostalgia on the way, and he wanted to see it.

The darkness has finally fallen, and there is still some distance from the destination, and when you are alone in the dark, there is a feeling called fear. Wang Xiaotou lit the kerosene lamp he brought, this is a must-have, something that must be brought when he goes out, this is what his father said to him the most.

The light is very bright and bright, and the feet are stepping on the dead branches, and the sound of clicking! Wang Xiaotou was naturally very nervous, he was fostered by his father in Aunt Ge's house in the neighboring village in the past, and only returned home once when his father came back, he didn't know why his father wanted to build the house in that ghost place, which was sparsely populated.

The surroundings were clearly visible in the shroud of light, and Wang Xiaotou was still bold and strode forward!

"Sha. Sha. ”

There was a sound in the bushes, Wang Xiaotou took a kerosene lamp and shone it over, and a pair of eyes sparkled in the dark night, wolf! Wang Xiaotou didn't have any self-defense in his hands, if the wolf attacked him at this time, his life would be in danger! Eyes staring at the wolf's whereabouts, hands unscrewed the lampshade on the kerosene lamp, all animals have a characteristic, they are afraid of fire, their feet stepped on the ground, a lot of fallen leaves and dead branches, Wang Xiaotou suddenly swept his legs, drew a small circle on the ground, the fallen leaves in the circle were separated from the fallen leaves outside, and the fallen leaves in the circle were ignited in an instant, and the flames flew in the dark night, as if they were venting to the surrounding objects. Don't get anything close!

Finally saw the true face of this wolf, slightly larger than the local dog at home, with a pointed and long mouth, it was a gray wolf, saliva hung on the mouth, staring at Wang Xiaotou, ready to find a place for Wang Xiaotou to attack fiercely! Looking at the flames, the gray wolf stepped back!

I remember when I was a child, the teacher said to Wang Xiaotou, in fact, the wolf is more afraid of you than you! The so-called people are afraid of ghosts for three points, and ghosts are afraid of people for seven points, all of which are the same truth.

"Ha, ha!"

Wang Xiaotou stepped on the ground and roared loudly, and with each roar, the gray wolf retreated backwards, and finally ended with the gray wolf's departure. After the gray wolf left, Wang Xiaotou gathered the fire together, made a torch, and hurried again!

Although the fire bar is more secure than the kerosene lamp, but there is no timeliness, the torch burns too fast, and finally can only use the kerosene lamp again, and after walking for more than half an hour, he finally saw a wooden house located on the side of the path, Wang Xiaotou breathed a sigh of relief.

This wooden house, whether it is big or not, is not big or big, Wang Xiaotou has a trace of emotion in his heart, and he pushed open the wooden door with a rattling sound.

"Everything is still the same, just a little shabby!" Step inside and close the door. The ground was already overgrown with weeds, and it was very difficult to step on it.

This is Wang Xiaotou's private school, and there is a school here in Qili and Eight Townships, and the teacher in it is still an old gentleman in the Qing Dynasty. Wang Xiaotou started his study career here, which has a very important meaning for him. There was nothing to look around, so I walked to the stairs, which were at the back of the house, the kind of stairs that belonged to the outside, but there was a roof on it before, and it was not eroded by the rain, but now the roof is already dilapidated, and the wooden ladder is badly corroded.

Feet on it, tried a little harder, made a clicking sound, stepped on it, did not break, the second order, success, all the way to the last step, because on the top, it was already covered with moss, Wang Xiaotou just stepped on it, the center of gravity lost balance, fell backwards, the hand reacted instantly, grabbed the stake on the wall, and escaped!

For the rest of his life after the catastrophe, Wang Xiaotou wiped his sweat, if he fell from here, he would be at least half-disabled! Shout in my heart old man bless! The second layer is all wet and slippery, and although you can stay away from the poisonous insects on the ground, the poisonous insects on it are not easy to mess with. Wang Xiaotou found a dry place, there was a haystack here, it seems that someone had lived here! Clear the haystack and find a round object inside.

"Bronze? Bronze mirrors? He took it in his hand and looked at it carefully, found a button, pressed it, patted it, turned it in half, and separated it from the middle.

"Compass!" Wang Xiaotou is also familiar with the compass, and has been playing as a toy since he was a child, and when his father came back for the first time, he took it away, and then gave it away. Now the compass in the hand is relatively ancient, the hand is turning in it, and it can still rotate, and the heavenly and terrestrial branch icons inside are all rotating, and suddenly stop, and the pointer points to the southeast direction of Wang Xiaotou!

"High-tech, at first glance, it's the ancestor's thing, I don't know who fell here, but now it's in my hands, that's my thing, haha!" He blew on the compass and wiped the dust from it. Thinking of the yin and yang secretary left by his father, he took it out, read the first few pages, didn't understand it too well, flipped through it at will, and a compass pattern appeared in the book, Wang Xiaotou held the compass in his hand compared with the compass in the painting, which was obviously different, but it was much the same. Take a closer look at the use of the compass, what are the ten heavenly stems, the twelve earthly branches, and the corresponding ones. Looking, watching, falling asleep.

The kerosene lamp had been extinguished at some point, Wang Xiaotou slept very deeply, and then the wind came, blowing on the dilapidated roof, and a black shadow burrowed into the house, squatting in the corner, I don't know what it was digging, and the sound was getting louder and louder.

"Huh?" Wang Xiaotou was woken up by the sound, he didn't know what the sound was, he had closed the door before coming in, but he forgot, the second floor can go up and down at will, and there is no door to stop it!

The sound stopped, and Wang Xiaotou listened in the dark!

"Da!"

"Da!"

Something up the stairs, getting closer, louder and louder, listen to the sound it's a big guy! Wang Xiaotou immediately got up, grabbed the package, picked up the book compass, got behind a wooden plank, and hid.

At this time, the unknown creature had already gone up to the second floor, and its mouth kept making a sound of "horn, horn," as if it was chewing something.! Wang Xiaotou poked his head out, and vaguely saw a black shadow, about the same size as a person, the black shadow walked to the grass, lay down, and suddenly got up, turning over something.

"Whoa, whoa!" The black shadow screamed, Wang Xiaotou immediately turned his head back, he dared to conclude that this is definitely not a human, but it can walk upright like a human, and the cry is so strange, he can't think of what kind of animal this is, the only thing that is certain is that this creature is dangerous!

The black shadow had already turned the grass pile upside down, and a lot of grass was thrown to Wang Xiaotou's side, Wang Xiaotou was nervous again, hoping that it would not come over here!

Soon, the black shadow quieted down, and Wang Xiaotou poked his head out again, this time he would never have imagined what was waiting for him outside! When the head poked out, a face also came over, and Wang Xiaotou collided head-on with his face! Wang Xiaotou got up from the ground with a brush, and when his face touched his face, there was a kind of plush touching his face! Wang Xiaotou pushed away the plank, one person was a dark shadow unknown creature, no one could see who clearly, both sides were frightened, and they didn't move!

The black shadow took a few steps back, and Wang Xiaotou also stepped back!

"What the is this, there's hair on the face, is it a wild man!" Wang Xiaotou couldn't help but remember that Aunt Ge had told him that someone in the village had found a wild man in this area, although he had never seen it, at that time people often said to the crying children that they would throw them to the wild man if they cried again, and then the crying children were very scared when they heard the wild man! Wang Xiaotou is also one of those children.

However, Wang Xiaotou quickly suppressed this thought, otherwise he would be scared to death!

Suddenly! The black shadow grabbed Wang Xiaotou, Wang Xiaotou waved and patted! Seeing that the black shadow failed to strike, he roared loudly, Wang Xiaotou was frightened, changed his strategy, and roared like the black shadow!

Seeing that Wang Xiaotou was the same as him, the black shadow did not make another move, but walked up to Wang Xiaotou, this time, he finally saw the true face of the black shadow, it was a human face, but the mouth was the same as a monkey! That's a wild man, or a human-faced monkey! It's an evolutionary breed, and maybe in a few centuries, they'll be about the same as hominins.

Wang Xiaotou, who saw his face clearly, swallowed his saliva, although that face was not scary. But savages are scary, and human-faced monkeys are even more scary! Involuntarily stepped back, and when Wang Xiaotou saw the human-faced monkey clearly, the human-faced monkey also saw him clearly. Instantly angry, thumping on the chest, and swooping over, the human-faced monkey is wider. Knock Wang Xiaotou to the ground. The two of them tore and rolled on the ground! Wang Xiaotou was at a disadvantage, his clothes were torn, and his skin and flesh were scratched in several places!
