Chapter 0107: Into the Mountain

The mayor of the town left with the people, and the shopkeeper took his things to the back, and I followed, and the kitchen was lit up, and the chicken feathers scattered on the ground had been cleaned up.

The man saw me come in and said, "It's dirty here." ”

"It's okay, I've loved watching people busy in the kitchen since I was a child, boss, what do you call it?"

"What kind of boss is this, the shop left by my father to me has no other skills, just call me Ah Qiang."

"Brother Qiang."

The man was happy, "Or you people in the city can talk, by the way, why are you so anxious to find Professor Mu?" "It's not me, it's Professor Mu's daughter, after all, there has been no news for more than a year."

"That's right, but I've heard them say that if you find something in archaeology, it's likely to take a few years when you go out, and even some people have black hair when they go in, and they are all white when they come out, anyway, it's very hard, in fact, I admire these people very much."

"How much do you know about archaeology?"

"I don't understand, it should be something left by the ancients, if you don't find it, it is very likely to be stolen by thieves, and then the country's loss will be great."

The man said as he wiped the countertop with a rag, it was very clean, archaeology and tomb robbery are similar in nature, they are all ways to dig up the things that the ancients buried in the ground.

The owner of the tomb, especially the kind of person with status, seems to have calculated that future generations will attack their own tomb, so most of them will take some extreme measures, such as setting up a killing mechanism in the tomb, or fire oil, mercury, etc., of course, there is also the witchcraft that prevailed in ancient times, which is also extremely common in the tomb.

The two of us came out of it, the fat man and they had already spread their things on the table, and they were going to deal with it here tonight, this town is too weird, and there are many women in our team, so it's safer to live here.

As soon as I turned around, I saw a person lying on the window, I gestured with my hand, and the restaurant owner said hehe, "It must be Cheng Cheng, don't worry about him, I'll lock the door for you from the inside at night." ”

"Where do you live?"

"I'll just live in the back."

"I'm really bothering you this time."

"It's just a matter of saying this, we go out by friends, and we want to know more people when we do business."

"By the way, when we came during the day, why wasn't there anyone in the town?"

The man laughed, "That's a habit you don't know here, although we are a town here, most of the land is carved out on the side of the mountain, and now is the time when the farming is busy, and people basically go to work in the fields during the day, and only come back at night." "I saw that he was a little reluctant to laugh, and since I didn't want to say it, I didn't ask much, after all, these things have nothing to do with us.

"We want to go into the mountains tomorrow to find someone, is there a suitable guide to help us recommend one, and the remuneration is easy to discuss."

"Are you really going?"

I nodded, Mu Ruohua also came over at this time, it would be best to have a reliable person to lead the way, as for whether this person is reliable, in fact, we don't know.

The boss scratched his head, "Actually, Ah Cheng is the most suitable, because last time Professor Mu and they went in, he took them in, but unfortunately people are crazy, if you really want to go in, it just so happens that I have no business here, I'll take you around." ”

"Great, as for the pay." I glanced at Mu Ruohua, she was the boss when she came out this time, I just followed.

Mu Ruohua should have been prepared, took out a wad of money from his pocket and handed it to the man named Ah Qiang, "This is a deposit, whether you can find someone or not, I will pay you the rest." ”

That pile should be a few thousand yuan, which is not a small amount, especially in such a remote place, the income should be a few thousand yuan a year.

"You guys have a good rest, and you will enter the mountain when you are ready tomorrow morning."

I watched as the man happily picked up the money and walked back, when I glanced towards the window, and the man lying on the window remained motionless as if he were asleep.

It was really terrible to look at from the inside, the largest table was occupied by the fat man, there was a large plastic sheet in the bag, I took it out of it and spread it on the ground for a night, in fact, no one could sleep, not only the shadow on the window, this town was full of people who felt inexplicably terrifying.

In the second half of the night, I began to get dazed, and suddenly I heard a very strange sound, and I woke up at once. In a highly tense situation, it is easy to be woken up by some sound, I sat up from the ground, the plastic sheet under me rattled, and I heard the sound coming from behind.

Mu Ruohua also woke up, she should have heard it, the two of us got up from the ground, and touched it with light steps, the light inside was on, and the sound was getting louder and louder.

The curtain slowly opened, and the movement of my hands was very slow, worried about making a sound, and the two of us looked in, and there was a figure sitting there, moving back and forth, and the sound came from there.

The man stopped suddenly, his arm raised, and something was placed in front of him, and in his hand was actually a kitchen knife, it was Ah Qiang, who was sharpening the knife in the middle of the night.

I pulled Mu Ruohua, the two of us secretly retreated, we walked back, at this time the fat man and they were already asleep, and the person who had been sticking to the window didn't know when he left.

"What does he want to do?"

Mu Ruohua looked at me, worried that people would hear it, the two of us were so close that we could even feel each other's heartbeats, "If you don't reveal your foreign wealth, will it be the idea of beating us for money!" ”

Mu Ruohua nodded, "It's very likely, in this kind of ghost place, even if you kill someone, no one should find out, the money is on us, as long as we die, the money will be his, so it is far easier than taking us into the mountain and then taking the money." ”

In fact, we made a fatal mistake, it is absolutely self-defeating to show wealth in this kind of place, but fortunately there is only one person, and there are six of us.

Mu Ruohua secretly took out the dagger, I pulled the stool to the side, and then the two of them lay there and pretended to sleep.

Time passed slowly, and the person was never seen coming out of it, and suddenly, the lights inside went out, and then the sound of shoes rubbing on the ground was heard.

At that time, my heart was tight, and my body was on my side, and if someone came out of it, I would definitely jump up without hesitation.

The voice was gone, and the two of us stayed up until dawn.

The table creaked, the fat man came down from above, this kid slept like a dead pig, he didn't know what happened last night, if someone really took a kitchen knife out, according to the neck, even if you are more than 200 pounds, it is useless, if the fat is useful, it is not a person to kill a pig.

"This is the jerky I made last night, and it will be useful to take it with me when I go in."

Ah Qiang came out of it, and I was happy with Mu Ruohua, this time it was the heart of a villain, and the purpose of sharpening the knife should be to cut meat for us to eat.

"Thank you."

"Delicious, delicious."

The fat man had already grabbed a large piece and stuffed it into his mouth, and kept shouting that it was delicious, "You eat first, I'll go in and pack some clothes." ”

I'm a little curious about the basement in the back kitchen, the madman I saw yesterday came up from below and grabbed a turkey in his hand, so the basement should be a place where the restaurant puts vegetables and meat, that kind of hidden and dark place, it is easy to hide some unknown secrets.

Unfortunately, the man never left, and even though I was curious, there was no way to get in.

After breakfast, the fat man took a bag and packed the meat, and Cuong also carried a bag and came out of it, and the fat mayor was already standing outside when we went out.

"I thought you were joking, but I didn't expect you to really go into the mountain!" The fat mayor laughed all the time, always feeling that smile was a little weird.

"I just want to find my father as soon as possible." Mu Ruohua replied.

"Actually, I'm also worried that something will happen to Professor Mu and them, Ah Qiang, you are familiar with the road, help me take care of these people."

"Don't worry, Mayor Mare."

We quickly got out of town and into the mountains in front of us, the foot of which was overgrown with grass and not like the mountain land Cuong had suggested, so I'm sure he was lying to what he said last night.

The mountain here was much higher than the dense forest we had passed, and the trees in it were not as lush as we had imagined, probably because of the rain that had just fallen the other day, and the soil on the ground was very wet, and the shoes made a strange sound when they stepped on it.
