Chapter 62: Customs
Seeing this, Jiang Chenghuan thought to himself, this group of people is really in trouble. Obviously, that old Gengtou is not a fuel-efficient lamp, don't make something about it in this deep mountain and old forest, everyone will suffer. Thinking so, he was ready to say something comforting to the old Gengtou to resolve his nervousness. Unexpectedly, Ma Shangkui suddenly took a step forward, and Jiang Chenghuan hurriedly closed his knees.
"Well, old man, it's like this, it's a little late tonight, I can't see anything in the dark, it's not convenient to do anything, and if I delay it any longer, I can't even see the way back down the mountain. I think it's not like this, just change it to tomorrow, tomorrow, let's go up the mountain early, start early, end early, tonight is like this, everyone disperse, please go back, please go back. ”
As he spoke, he waved his hand at the same time, and it seemed that the final word was settled. After Ma Shangkui finished speaking, Jiang Chenghuan followed the preparation of the family down the mountain, the scene was indeed loosened, everyone is afraid that everyone has this idea, who wants to stay in this ghost place for a long time. Even people who watched the excitement should have no interest now, and Jiang Chenghuan even took two steps.
But at this moment, the old Gengtou spoke again, and what he said was surprising.
"I said that comrade just now, if I guessed correctly, it should be a forensic doctor. I remember the last time you examined the corpse of the old man, you went up the mountain. Old Geng pointed at Bian Haibo with his hand, "Just now, you don't seem to have finished saying anything, what do you want to say, you might as well go back after you finish speaking, so as not to hold back in your heart, everyone said yes?" ”
After Lao Geng finished speaking, he waved a fanning gesture behind him, and then waited for everyone's response.
There was a dead silence at the scene, and no one seemed to react, but after a while, it really sounded, and they raised their hands one by one and waved them wildly saying that they had to make it clear, so that everyone could understand in their hearts.
"Hey, what do you mean, old guy, do you want to make a fuss?"
Jiang Chenghuan was not surprised, he glanced around, the scene was really a little bit imposing, in the dark, dotted with sparks, giving people a picture like the peasant uprising seen in the TV series, giving people a mysterious feeling.
Jiang Chenghuan was anxious for Bian Haibo again, no, he was anxious for everyone, including himself, in case something happened because of this old man's incitement, what should I do, this old Geng Tou really wanted to make trouble and deliberately stir up the situation, so how is it good!
"Eh, old man, you're too worried, what's the matter that you have to figure out now, isn't it okay tomorrow, everyone is tired, hungry, and it's so dark, why are you competing on this mountain, it's not worth it, everyone says it's not right?"
This is Ma Shangkui's voice, and he said it very confidently. After he finished speaking, like the old Gengtou, he pulled his hand towards the crowd behind him, as if to have a sensational effect on the old Gengtou just now. However, after he swung it, there was no response behind him, and there was no momentum that the old Geng Tou had just presented. He seemed to have forgotten that this was on someone else's territory, and thought that he was usually responding to his own unit.
Seeing this, Jiang Chenghuan instinctively approached Ma Shangkui. This is to help and add a little momentum, and when other people saw this, they also leaned in, and even the forensic doctor of the court slowly pasted it.
This is a professional habit that has been cultivated for many years, and whenever there is danger, it is necessary to take precautions against the enemy.
However, just a few people, the water is not muddy, they stand together, dwarfed, a lot worse than the momentum of the other party, the other party is crowded, outnumbered.
Ma Shangkui no longer squeaks, he is a veteran, well-informed, has a set of experience in dealing with possible mass incidents, and knows how to face this kind of contingency. He believes that as long as he remains calm, he should be able to control the situation.
He wasted no time in glancing at Bian Haibo, who was a bystander, as if waiting for him to make further arrangements. He didn't feel a little annoyed, and thought to himself, you Bian Haibo didn't squeak just now, why don't you squeak now, it's completely cowardly.
At this time, Bian Haibo, who had no warning, suddenly stretched out his hand and pointed at Jiang Chenghuan.
"Let's go, you come with me."
Jiang Chenghuan was suddenly pointed out, first he was stunned, and he didn't know what Bian Haibo was going to do, but he still raised his legs involuntarily. He had no choice, at this moment, in this situation, he couldn't help but go, even if it was to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, he had to take steps first. Perhaps, at this time, it was a wise choice and a relief for him to leave together, so he followed closely behind him and disappeared into the vast night.
Bian Haibo took the lead with a strong flashlight, and behind him was Jiang Chenghuan, who was stumbling. Bian Haibo first went down the mountain, descended more than ten meters, and then ran sideways towards a narrow mountain road. The path is about two meters wide and lined with dense bushes, and the further you go, the more eerie it becomes, as if you're heading into an abyss. Even with the bright flashlight, in the distance, almost nothing can be seen clearly. When Bian Haibo raised the bright flashlight to shine it, the bright light seemed to be completely engulfed by the night in an instant.
Jiang Chenghuan became more and more worried, not knowing what kind of place to go and what the results would be. When he saw Bian Haibo moving forward without hesitation, he could only follow behind and stride forward.
At this time, Jiang Chenghuan vaguely felt movement behind him, and from time to time there was a bright light flickering, and he was not surprised. Hey, what's going on? I saw that there were more than ten meters at the bend behind me, and there were figures shaking in twos and threes, and there was no need to guess, it was someone from the mountain who followed. But whether it was Ma Shangkui or the people in the village had no way of knowing.
"What are you doing here, where are you taking me?"
Jiang Zanghuan asked.
He was infected by the people who followed closely behind him, and there was a burst of joy in his heart, at least, in the case of many people, he didn't need to be afraid, a wave of heat surged in his heart, and his confidence was suddenly sufficient.
Bian Haibo did not respond to Jiang Chenghuan, but continued to take two big steps forward, and then said leisurely, "I said you, you must learn to use your brain, so as not to be deceived." ”
"Deceived?" Jiang Chenghuan couldn't help asking, and didn't seem to understand.
"You'll see the mystery in a moment."
Hehe, what about selling guanzi, Jiang Chenghuan listened, although he was puzzled, but he didn't continue to ask.
At this time, a clear sound of footsteps suddenly came to mind behind him, obviously, it was the sound of rapid running, Jiang Chenghuan turned around vigilantly, and suddenly, a black shadow flashed in front of them. Jiang Chenghuan instinctively turned to one side, as if he wanted to escape. Unexpectedly, the black shadow did not stop in front of him, but continued to rush forward, stopped after catching up with Bian Haibo in front, and then stretched out his hand to block Bian Haibo's way.
"You can't go on."
"Why?"
Bian Haibo was stopped, stopped and asked sharply. At the same time, he swept the flashlight at the person, but did not shine into the person's eyes, because he knew that the eyes of the flashlight could easily blind people. He could see clearly that it was a young man.
"No, I just wanted to ask you where exactly you're taking us. I have to tell you, the mountain road is not easy to walk, don't step on the air and fall off the cliff, no one can take this responsibility. ”
Jiang Chenghuan didn't know who it was at all, but no matter who it was, it wasn't their group anyway, it must be someone from the village. So, what did this young man really want to do, why did he run to stop them first, and what was his intention? Such an act obviously aroused Jiang Chenghuan's curiosity, since they are all here, why don't you go on again, what does it mean to block the way? He thought so, and took a step forward to see what was going on. But at this moment, he heard a panting wheezing sound, and before he could make out it, the gasp was already at the base of his ear.
"You, you, ran into our mountains, tossed and turned, made us uneasy, where are you going now?"
It was the voice of the old Gengtou, obviously blaming them for continuing to go deep into the mountains.
Hehe, it's really weird, they went into the mountain, as for such a big fuss, so, isn't it that there are no three hundred taels of silver here, and the second king of the door has not stolen it, but it has aroused Jiang Chenghuan's suspicions. Not to mention, this old Gengtou really has some physical strength, although he is out of breath, being able to catch up shows that his physical strength is still good. But I don't know that this old man cares so much about Bian's whereabouts and practices, it's really incredible.
"Don't even let go of a dead person, people are dead, they are buried, after such a long time, you just have to toss blindly, and let the dead not be at peace, as for this, I want to tell you, there are no rules and no circle, your city has the rules and practices of your city, we have the rules and practices of our mountains, we respect your rules and practices, but you can't ignore our mountain people."
Lao Gengtou continued to nag, his tone was very tough, and he had a little bit of the bones of the rural principal, as if he wanted to fight with Bian Haibo to the end.
Jiang Chenghuan didn't understand, what this old man said, even if they wanted to do something, they didn't want to break the rules and practices of their countrymen, as for being so upright, it would arouse the suspicion of others. So, he stared at Lao Geng with curious eyes, and after a while, he turned to Bian Haibo again, he wanted to see how they continued.
"Do you know what I'm going to do, that's why you stopped me from going, and didn't let me go on, as for me?"
"What are you going to do, I don't know, joke," said the old man, almost hysterical, "what are you going to do?" I beg you, you respect the customs here, okay, don't toss anymore, don't toss so much that our village can't even live in peace, okay! ”
"Customs?"
