Chapter 20: Who is the Madman?
I seemed to think of something, and my heart slammed.
The boss said: "I was still young, and I was waiting for the train to come by the railroad tracks to sell groceries, when I heard a 'boom' and the ground shook. Then I heard people shouting, 'The mountain has fallen!' ''The mountain is falling!'' I hurriedly ran over, and I was completely stunned...... The entire tunnel collapsed, and only the head of a train stuck out and its body was buried in it. I remember clearly, the head of the man in the driver's seat of the train was smashed......"
My brain thumped.
Daikin and I looked at each other, shocked.
In this way, the train we encountered in front of the tunnel was the same one that crashed.
The little ghost was not too surprised, and said, "And then? "He doesn't seem interested in the back anymore.
The boss shook his head and said: "More than 100 people died this time, and the top sent people to rescue, and it took a long time to dig a hole, and the rescue team went in to save people." As soon as I entered, the tunnel collapsed again, and the rescue team was all buried in it. Later, no rescue team dared to go in. The matter was suppressed by force at that time, and gradually subsided. And our town has been cut off from the outside world, and the days are getting worse and worse, but fortunately since the tunnel collapsed, strange things have not happened again. But we lost hope, but we had no motivation and could only live in the village. After that, the boss just finished smoking a cigarette and threw away the cigarette butt.
The little wit shook his head and said: "It's all stupid to blame, you don't get hurt by the pond fish from time to time, that thing can't be provoked." ”
The boss nodded again and again, and said: "After listening to it for a long time, I know that brother, you are an understanding person, and the old people in the village said that the engineering team dug the mountain god's nest, and the mountain god was angry." If you want me to say yes, you said that the tunnel would not collapse a long time ago, and it would collapse again unless someone went in, and it would collapse twice, isn't this evil? ”
The three of us nodded again and again, and I thought to myself, what kind of mountain god, I'm afraid it was the big black snake I saw in the mountain beam shaft.
After the boss finished speaking, the dishes were almost served. The boss stood up and said, "Okay, everyone should listen to the story, don't spread it." Also, you must not pay attention to the mountain, it is really evil. ”
"Wait, brother," Dajin said.
The boss said, "What else is going on?" ”
Dajin looked around suspiciously, and said, "When I came here half a year, I remembered that there was a 'Young Sons Gang' in our fort, and there was a young man named Lao Hai who was very fierce...... Why didn't you see them? ”
According to Dajin's idea, when we get to Wudenburg, we will find Lao Hai and them, and a few threats should allow him to help us find all the tools, and also act as a guide for us.
Dajin's voice, I suddenly remembered, according to the urine nature of the group of people in the Shaozi Gang, I should have come up to find fault with the living people a long time ago, why hasn't there been any movement until now?
The boss was stunned and said, "Are you here to seek revenge?" "The boss thinks we're here to seek revenge on Lao Hai.
I shook my head again and again, and said, "We owe him an account, and we are here to pay it back." ”
The boss's eyes flickered, and he didn't know whether to believe what I said, and after a while, he said: "You don't have to settle your accounts, Lao Hai had an accident three months ago, and the Shaozi Gang also dispersed." ”
Something is wrong? Dajin suddenly became uncalm and said, "What's wrong?" Lao Hai is dead? ”
The boss was silent for a while and shook his head: "He's crazy." ”
"Crazy?" I was stunned, why did that bandit leader with a ruthless heart in his smile go crazy? I asked, "What's going on?" ”
The boss was silent.
Seeing this, Daikin took out a few red tickets from his pocket and stuffed them to the boss.
The boss got the ticket, twisted it, stuffed it into his pocket, and sat down again. He sighed and said, "If I'm not mistaken, you're doing dirt work." ”
Doing dirt work, although the boss didn't make it clear, the meaning was already obvious.
The little clever and generous said: "Clever." ”
The boss waved his hand: "What a cleverness, our castle is poor and fierce, and we don't see a few people in a year." Ten people came, and eight of them were earth-crawlers. ”
Dajin thought for a while and said, "Didn't you just ask Lao Hai how crazy he was, how did he get involved here, the brothers are all here for money, and they have no other meaning." ”
The boss nodded and said: "I understand the rules, I won't ask anything more, I have short hands, I will definitely tell everything I know." ”
Then the boss began to speak.
It turned out that three months ago, a group of mysterious people came. These people spent a lot of money to find a guide and went into the 'Wangchuan Slope'. In the end, only three of the dozen people in the group came out, and they all came out with big burdens.
This guide is a member of the Young Sons Gang, and he accidentally glimpsed that those people's baggage is full of gold objects. immediately got up with evil intentions and reported it to Lao Hai, who took the young man to help a gang rob the three people and rob the gold utensils. I also learned from the mouths of those three that there is a large tomb in Wangchuanpo, and there are countless treasures in it!
Lao Hai was tempted to hear this, and the next day he took the three people and more than 20 people from the Shaozi Gang into Wangchuanpo. As a result, after three days and three nights, only Lao Hai walked out alone.
When people asked what happened, they found that Lao Hai was full of nonsense...... He's gone crazy.
Speaking of this, the boss sighed again and again: "The village lost more than 20 young people at once, and most of the young gangs died, and the leaders went crazy, so they naturally dispersed." ”
I suddenly interjected: "Could it be that so many people died, and no one went in to rescue them?" ”
The boss nodded: "Wangchuan Slope is full of ghost roads, and if you go in, you will have to go around the dead bend, and ordinary people don't dare to go in at all." The fort has organized a squad of hunters, and as you know, there are not many hunters in the fort, and most of them are out of business. It was the family members who begged them that they went inside...... As a result, they didn't find anything, only blood stains all over the ground, and traces of Black Lake Shao. ”
"Black Lake Shao?" Daikin and I looked at each other, and now we're in trouble.
Or the little ghost spoke: "Are all the hunters out?" ”
The boss said: "Come out, although it is evil there, they still have some skills, but unfortunately they didn't find anyone inside." Perhaps, it was eaten by Heihu Shao. ”
The little clever man's eyes flickered when he heard this, and he didn't know what to think.
Tomb robbing is not only a rough job, but also pays attention to chasing the wind and catching shadows, how can the more than 20 people who are alive be gone? Even if it is attacked by a black snake, it is impossible to leave not even a single bone residue. The only possibility is that they have entered the dungeon! In this way, nature disappears from the ground.
Dajin said: "The last time I came, I heard from the people in the fort that there was a big tomb in Nawangchuanpo...... Do you know which dynasty's tomb it is? ”
My ears and I were pricked up.
The boss shook his head: "Everyone knows that there is a grave inside, but if there is any grave, the oldest person in the village doesn't know." I listened to my grandfather...... There's a big official buried there...... But in this poor and remote place, which official would be buried here? ”
Dajin nodded and said, "Thank you, brother, with your guidance, we will have a bottom in our hearts." By the way, who is the most capable hunter in our castle? ”
The boss didn't think about it, and said, "Lin Shan! The old fellow was the best hunter in the castle, but his temper was like a stone in a pit, smelly and hard. Last time, thirty people in the village knelt outside the old man's door for a long time before he agreed to take the hunters into the slope. Without him, the other hunters in the fort would not have dared to enter...... If you want to find him as a guide, you will have to suffer a little. ”
Lin Shan, I silently wrote down this name and said, "What about Lao Hai?" Where is he now? ”
The boss said: "He is in the former Youngster Gang...... A mouthful of bread in the east and a bite of rice in the west. ”
"Okay." Dajin took out a few tickets and stuffed them to the boss, saying, "Thank you, brother, and I hope my brother will not make a statement." ”
The boss nodded repeatedly: "That's natural, but I still advise you to think twice, after all, that place ...... It's so wicked. He got up and walked away.
After eating, we came to the former Young Sons Gang.
The mansion looked even more dilapidated, even the plaque on the door of the "Young Sons Gang" was crooked, and the door was closed.
I habitually went up and tapped on the door, but I was actually going to push it open the next moment.
"Enter the ......," a hoarse voice suddenly came out.
I was startled, pushed the door open and the three of us walked in.
As soon as I entered, I saw people sitting in the courtyard.
Is this still Lao Hai?
This person has the outline of this rare old sea, but he has lost a lot of weight, wearing a gray tattered clothes, sitting on the Taishi chair in the courtyard, looking at us quietly. His dark skin had lost its luster and was unkempt, like a beggar. Where is the majestic appearance of half a year ago?
"Lao Hai?" Daikin shouted tentatively.
Lao Hai looked at Dajin with straight eyes, showing a surprised expression: "It's you?" ”
Dajin was stunned for a moment and smiled: "Do you remember me?" ”
Lao Hai also smiled and bared his teeth: "Of course I remember." ”
I looked at Lao Hai coldly, he also had this kind of eerie toothy smile back then, but now his teeth have turned black and yellow.
The little clever spirit just stared at Lao Hai and didn't speak, he was not familiar with Lao Hai.
Daikin said tentatively, "You know me? Who am I? ”
Lao Hai's eyes narrowed, and he said, "Aren't you the one who collects the goods, and you still point a gun at me." As he spoke, he made a pistol gesture.
Daikin and I looked at each other. Judging from the current situation, this Lao Hai has no mental problems except for his poor physical condition.
I couldn't help but say, "Aren't you crazy?" ”
Lao Hai sneered and said, "Who said I'm crazy? ”
I said, "The owner of the hotel said that." ”
Lao Hai sneered and said, "You actually believe that psychopath's words, did he still tell you that the back mountain hit the train, and there was a big black snake in the slope, and there was a team of dirt workers in the village?" ”
I was surprised: "How do you know?!" ”
Lao Hai laughed: "Which foreigner doesn't go to blind Bibi when he comes?" He is sick, and he has been chattering since his wife died...... I often see him go to the river to catch insects and stew soup...... You still dare to go there to eat, don't you notice that his restaurant has no customers except for a stupid fellow? The old seaside laughed as he spoke, and his stomach twitched from laughter.
I thought about it and was shocked. We were in the restaurant for half a day, and it was true that no one went in to eat. Thinking of the insect soup that Lao Hai said, I suddenly felt sick to my stomach, I had drunk a lot of soup just now.
Looking at Lao Hai's determined appearance, I couldn't help but start to wonder, is that boss really a psychopath?
Dajin was puzzled: "Then according to you, the boss should be talking nonsense?" Then how did you come up with this look, the Youngsters? ”
Lao Hai sneered, and his tone was cold: "It's all dead, dead to the point of looking through the slope." ”
Dajin frowned and said, "How did you die, what happened?" ”
Lao Hai's eyes were a little sloppy: "They saw thirty-three bronze lions, and the Shaozi Gang went to a total of thirty people except me, plus three outsiders, exactly thirty-three." ”
"Hiss......" The little wit, which had been silent, gasped.
"What's wrong?" I even asked him?
He shook his head and motioned for Lao Hai to continue.
Lao Hai nodded with satisfaction and continued: "Thirty-three were all bitten to death, and it happened that the two of us ran out. ”
"You two?!" I exclaimed.
In addition to Lao Hai, there is another person who ran out?
