I was shocked for a moment, thinking to myself where we got into trouble, and it took me a while to realize that what he said was my grandfather.

After I reacted, I thought it was impossible, how many years had it been, and if he had been in charge, he would have been able to stay in this poor and remote place? Besides, he has a rustic atmosphere, where does he have the appearance of a teacher.

Meng Changqing didn't believe it when he saw that he didn't believe it, he just said that the Shangqing Great Cave Seal was the treasure of Maoshan Mountain, and only the master could have it.

I nodded nondeniably, thinking that if he was really the head of Maoshan, it would be very powerful to be able to sit in this position, and even if he encountered those walking corpses and ghosts, he would be able to resist for a while, and he would be able to leave safely at worst.

Meng Changqing roughly saw what I was thinking, and said: "Since your grandfather has caused so much trouble, then he must have a way to deal with these troubles, you don't have to worry too much, we didn't go to him to protect him, just to figure out some things." ”

I nodded, and then walked with him into the mountains, Meng Changqing said that walking corpses like shady places, so the road we walked was all woods, the road condition was extremely poor, and we walked very hard.

By about four o'clock in the morning the next day, we entered this so-called Sanhe village.

At this point, most of the villagers have not yet gotten up, but the dogs in the countryside are very clever, and even if we are light-hearted, we still haven't noticed it.

When he was in a stalemate with the dog, a flashlight came from behind, and when he turned around, he saw an old man about eighty years old walking over slowly, and after seeing the three of us, he asked vigilantly, "What are you three doing here?" ”

Meng Changqing stepped forward to say hello to the old man, and then said that we were passing by, and the old man saw Meng Changqing with our two children, and his face was no longer so vigilant, and then Meng Changqing asked the old man why he was still outside so late.

The old man replied that all the people in the vicinity had moved away, and that the wild boars had returned, and that he had gone out to hunt the wild boars, for fear that the wild boars would harm the crops.

After they had talked a few words, the old man asked us to come into the house and sit down for a while.

He is the only one in the old man's house, his wife died of illness last year, and his son and daughter are all working in other places.

The old man's house is also surrounded by walls, and as soon as he enters, he can smell a musty smell, and the chairs are full of dust.

The old man found a rag and wiped it, and said, "Usually there is no one at home, and I only sit on one or two chairs, and I don't take care of the other chairs if no one sits." ”

By the dim light of the 15-watt light bulb in the room, I looked at the room, and sure enough, as the old man said, only two chairs were clean in the room, and all that was left was a table without dust.

The old man wiped down three chairs and handed them to us, and after sitting down, Xiaoxiao and I rested, while Meng Changqing talked to the old man.

Rural people are more kind, plus the old man's house usually no one comes, the old man is very lonely, now finally a few people came, no matter who it was, he was treated as a guest, and the conversation was served tea and water.

During the conversation, I learned that the old man was a duangong, named Chen Zhong, who had learned some feng shui things from others before, and the people in the village would look for him to see if they had something, and they had a good chat, and he also took out his things and introduced them to Meng Changqing.

Although Meng Changqing knew what these things were, he still listened carefully to the old man.

When we talked until the sky showed the white of the fish belly in the morning, the old man asked us to have breakfast at his place, let us sit for a while, and he went to cook.

Meng Changqing didn't refuse, I think I'm embarrassed, my grandparents used to tell me not to be too casual at other people's houses, but now we are like this, just like cheating to eat and drink, we will eat at whomever house we enter.

Although I'm hungry now, I'm embarrassed to stay here, so I'll tell Meng Changqing that we'll go.

Meng Changqing pointed to a tsubaki tree outside the house with a normal face, and three swarthy birds were staring at the inside of the house on the branches of the tsubaki tree.

"Crows?"

Meng Changqing nodded and said: "I have noticed those three crows since I entered the house, and they have been stopping there to look at the house from early morning to now, this is definitely not accidental, they are waiting for the people in the house to die, and then eat the flesh of the people in the house." ”

I have heard that crows eat dead human flesh, and after Meng Changqing said it, I was even more sure about it, and I hurriedly asked Meng Changqing what to do.

Meng Changqing said that he still doesn't know the cause of the incident, and he has to wait until the signs of the incident to come up before he can think of countermeasures.

I answered and stared at the crows, Xiaoxiao slept a lot along the way, and was also staring at the crows outside.

After Xiaoxiao glanced at it a few times, the crow fluttered and flew to another place that we couldn't see.

After a while, the old man cooked a meal and invited us to the table, during the meal, he was like his grandparents, and he gave Meng Changqing vegetables one by one, but they were all vegetarian dishes.

The old man's life is very hard, and there is very little oil and water in the meals. In the countryside, bacon is generally hung on the wall, but the old man is surrounded by four walls, and the wall is empty, and there are a few willow nails that used to hang bacon on it, and there is nothing else.

The old man also felt embarrassed, so he said, "Originally, I raised two pigs, one of which was going to be sold for feed, and the other was to eat for myself." But one of them died halfway, and the rest was sold for feed. There's no meat at home, don't be surprised. ”

Xiao Xiao frowned and looked at the old man's skinny face and asked, "Grandpa, didn't you eat meat before?" ”

After hearing this, the old man said that he was already old, and the loess was buried in his forehead, and it was a waste to eat more.

Xiaoxiao looked at the old man with tears in her eyes after hearing this, and the corners of her mouth squirmed for a long time but she didn't speak. It looked like she hadn't eaten meat in a long time.

Halfway through breakfast, the old man's thin little yellow dog barked at the side of the house, and the old man was afraid that the dog would bite someone, so he went out and stopped the dog.

After the dog barking stopped, a woman's voice came, this woman came to find the old man to do something, she said a few words outside and left, the old man politely invited her to come in and sit and she also refused, I heard that this woman is very impolite, as if the old man must help her with the same thing, after explaining the direct departure, do not say a polite word.

After that, the old man came in and said that the villagers were looking for him to do something, and then he ate without saying a word.

"Grandpa, she is so rude, why did you agree to help him?" I'm still young and arrogant, and if someone talks to me like that and asks me to do something, I'll definitely suck her phlegm and tell her to fuck off.

The old man smiled and said that it was all right, let us eat and stay in the house for a while, and he would go out to do some business and come back.

When I saw that the old man didn't say anything, I didn't ask, and the old man continued to bury his head in eating, and after a long time he said, "They all dislike that my house is dirty, and they don't come into the house." ”

Although the inside of the old man's house is not very clean, it is definitely not to the point of being disliked by everyone, it is all rural, and he deals with dirt all day long, and this little dust in the house is nothing at all.

The old man saw that I was looking at the house, and said, "It's not for this reason, when my wife died, I was out on errands, and I went out for more than ten days before I came back, and when I came back, she was already rotten on the bed, and no one in the village came to my house after that." It's okay if I don't come, I'll be purer. ”

Although the old man said this, he definitely didn't think so in his heart, otherwise he wouldn't have been so enthusiastic about us strangers.

After dinner, the old man cleaned up the table and asked the three of us to wait in the room for a while, and he came back when he was done, and Meng Changqing offered to go with him, so he left the two of us here.

When the old man saw us two children, he was afraid that we would be scared of his wife's rot in the house, so he asked us to go with him, and they left after we said they were not afraid, and said that if they were afraid, they would go to the other side of the village to find them.

As soon as they left, I saw the three crows that had been perched on the side of the house flutter away.

After the crow left, Xiaoxiao and I stared at each other, and it took a while to find a topic to talk to her.

During the conversation, a young man in his thirties suddenly stood at the door, wearing a black robe, his hands shrunk inside the robe, and only a pair of eyes were exposed outside his body, probably because of the black robe, his eyes were extremely bright, just like when Meng Changqing saw the ghost.

This person is extremely tall, about two meters, and even Meng Changqing is a head shorter than him.

We didn't know how this man came out, and when we saw him dressed so strangely, we warily asked him who he was looking for.

I glanced at the two of us, and without answering, I walked directly across the threshold, and looked around the various rooms of the house, and when I came out again, two more people with their heads bowed appeared behind me, these two people looked illusory, and the discerning person knew at a glance that they were not people.

The man in the black robe crossed the threshold with the two people with their heads down, looked down when they came out of the threshold, and then turned to us and said, "Raise the threshold higher, there are corpses nearby, don't let him cross the threshold." Also, don't go out at night, I'll come back to him again. ”

The man walked away, and I chased him out to see where I could find any trace of him.

Ordinary people can't go so fast at all, I thought to myself that something strange happened again, so I hurriedly took Xiaoxiao to find Meng Changqing.
