There were several people standing at the door, and the one in the middle was also a fat man, and the madman seemed to be very afraid of this person, and when he ran to the door, he covered his face with both hands.

"Stay at home."

The man took a step inside, and the madman ran out.

"Mayor Town, you really have to think of a way, there is no business, and there is a madman who comes to make trouble every day, and my small shop is going to be yellow."

The fat man coughed, it should be because we are here, "Isn't there a guest coming to the door!" ”

"What's the use, in the past, there could be at least several tables of guests a day, but now I can't see a single figure for half a month." The man set the stick aside and took a cloth from his pocket to wipe the blood from the kitchen knife.

This person is the owner of this restaurant, and the person just now is just a madman who sneaked in.

"I'm the mayor here, who are you?"

"Traveling, I heard that the environment here is good, so I brought people over to have a look."

The fat mayor was happy, "I see that you are from the big city, go get a few dishes." ”

"Got it."

The man walked back with a kitchen knife, and soon there was a curse from inside, presumably to find the chicken that had been killed on the table.

"Sit."

A few of us sat back in the position, the fat mayor was very talkative, first introduced us to the history of the town, there is indeed a famous hall here, this is the former residence of a general in the Ming Dynasty, and it was once the fief of the prince.

I don't know much about history, and the fief should be a place to live, so it shouldn't be anything, and it should be a bit interesting if I can keep all the ruins.

Soon, a pot of steaming chicken was served, and a few side dishes, probably because of the person just now, I basically didn't move, the fat man and the big tooth didn't care about this, kept stuffing it into my mouth.

The fat mayor was happy, "Today's meal is in the town, you must give us more publicity after you go back, our place has clear water and good air, and the food is green food, which you don't have in the city." ”

"It's delicious, this chicken tastes exactly the same as the one my mother raised when I was a child, I haven't eaten such a delicious one for several years." The fat man clutched a bone in his hand and made his hands full of oil.

"By the way, who was that guy we met earlier?"

"Don't mention it." The boss couldn't help but sigh after speaking, "His name is Cheng Cheng, he was originally a young man who grew up with me, when I opened this shop, and the business was not bad, I asked him to come over to help." ”

I nodded, and that made sense of why the man was so familiar with the store, "So how did he go crazy?" ”

"I'm not scared crazy yet!"

"Scared?"

The boss also sat down, "It's all because he is greedy, once he took money from guests, took those people into the mountain, and went crazy when he came back, saying all day long that there was something to follow him to eat chickens, so every day I came to kill chickens, and I couldn't watch it." ”

"When did you bring guests into the mountains?"

"About a year ago, we had a lot of mountains here, and it was easy to get lost, and people often hired our people here to lead the way, but they just went up to play, and who thought that something would happen to him."

"A year ago! Isn't it true that everyone who goes up the mountain from here will pass through here? ”

"Of course, don't look at me, this is a small shop, it's the only scorpion poop, as long as you want to go up the mountain, you have to eat a few meals at my place."

cough cough, the fat mayor coughed a few times, and the shopkeeper hurriedly took a mouthful of food and put it in his mouth, and then the fat mayor smiled, "Several, are you going around, or are you going into the mountain?" ”

"There's a difference?"

"Of course there is, if you go around, it's easy, the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, it's no problem to turn for a few days, if you want to enter the mountains, it's best to find a local to guide you, otherwise it's easy to get lost, there are no more beasts in the mountains than in your city."

"Actually, we're looking for someone."

"Looking for someone, looking for whom?"

I took out my phone, pulled up the group photo in the photo studio, and first showed the fat mayor a look, "Are you looking for Professor Mu?" "What we didn't expect was that the fat mayor actually recognized Mu Ruohua's father at once, and he seemed to be very familiar.

"You know my father."

"You are?"

"My name is Mu Ruohua, this person is my father, and I came back from the United States this time to find my father."

"Professor Mu is missing?"

I coughed, accidentally got a small piece of chili pepper into my throat, and immediately coughed fiercely, "It's not yet....it's not clear, but a lot of strange things happened along the way." ”

After I said this, I took out the water from my bag and drank a few large sips, and finally relieved myself a little, and I suddenly noticed that the fat mayor had been watching me.

Fat Mayor nodded, "The first time I met Professor Mu was almost twenty years ago, when I brought a lot of people in, saying that they were going to conduct archaeological excavations, and I didn't know what archaeology was at that time, but I saw that they took a lot of equipment into the mountain. ”

"When did that come out?"

"It's been almost half a year."

"Did anything strange happen?"

The fat mayor shook his head, "I happened to be there at the time, Professor Mu said that he didn't find it this time, and then he took people away." ”

"How many times have they been here?"

"I don't know."

"I know."

The shopkeeper took his phone from my hand and looked at it, "This picture was taken in a photo studio on the street, I was only eleven or twelve years old at the time, and we rarely came all year round, and they were wearing very strange clothes at that time, so I kept following them and watched them go to the photo studio." ”

"Can you help me find someone at the photo studio?"

"This can't be, that weirdo died a year ago, and the photo studio is left unattended."

I nodded, it was a year ago, plus that madman, these are most likely related to Mu Ruohua's father, I leaned over, this shopkeeper knows a lot, "Did this person come here a year ago?" ”

"I came, and that brother of mine led them into the mountains, and when he came back, he went crazy."

"He's the only one coming out?"

"He's the only one, he didn't look like a man when he came out, and at the beginning he just shouted dead people all over the street, dead people, and then he got crazier and worse, just like you see."

I glanced at Mu Ruohua, she also looked at me, although it was just a glance contact, basically understood each other's meaning, if you want to find Mu Ruohua's father, you must go into the mountain, and the danger encountered this time may be more dangerous than the stone tomb that you passed by when you came.

Even so, in order to find the whereabouts of her missing father, Mu Ruohua will definitely go.

"Dead man, dead man."

A man rushed in shouting, the man with a bag in his hand, grabbed it and threw it in our direction, and the two schoolgirls ran over screaming in fright.

Floating in the air was yellow paper money, the kind for the dead, with a circle in the middle, "Go out crazy, go out crazy." ”

The fat mayor looked angry, the man suddenly stopped going crazy, and dragged the bag over, "You will die, you will die, and you." ”

"Get out."

The first thing that madman pointed at was the fat mayor, and no one wanted to listen to this kind of thing, and I saw that the man next to the fat mayor kicked the madman at the same time.

This madman was the first man we met when we entered the town, still dragging the old parcel, only this time it was not my letters, it was paper money.

The madman suddenly went to the ground, "Okay, it's just a madman, it's useless to hit him." ”

The man next to him stood up, and the fat mayor hurriedly stopped him, most likely because we were there, otherwise, this madman would definitely have to suffer a little.

The madman suddenly jumped up from the ground and began to laugh, "Whoever goes up the hill will die, will die." The madman ran out with his bag in his hands and the streets outside filled with the madman's laughter.

The fat mayor laughed, "Let you see the smile, such a person should be sent to a mental hospital, but unfortunately, our conditions are not good, the above allocation is limited, and the annual target is only one, and now there are two crazy at once, and it is not good to send anyone." ”

I nodded, how could I still have the heart to eat, the fat mayor invited us to stay at his house for one night, we refused, and simply made up for the night in this shop, and always felt that this boss had a lot of things not to say.
