As soon as the two heard the old man say that the ginseng was gone, they hurriedly looked back and found that there was only a pit left, and the two of them suddenly seemed to have lost their souls, and they couldn't believe what had just happened. Hou Bin turned his head and looked at the old man, thinking that this time it was broken, the old man must not be able to stand such a blow, but who knew that the old man did not react much, but just felt a little regretful and said: "I didn't expect to finally meet a century-old ginseng, and I actually let it run away like this under my nose." Hey, run away. ”

Hou Bin and the others looked at the old man's reaction and felt very puzzled. It is said that this ginseng should be very important to the old man, and the two children rely on it, and if it is gone, it should be crying loudly. But the old man felt like he had lost a big turnip, and it didn't hurt or itch. At this time, the old man continued to Hou Bin and the two of them: "Oh, it's really hard for the two of you today, although this ginseng hasn't been dug up, but I understand the hearts of the two old men." It's not too early, so let's go back quickly. ”

Hou Bin didn't know what to say at this time, and felt that the old man was stimulated because the ginseng was missing, so he asked tentatively: "Uncle, you, if you feel uncomfortable, you can cry, don't hold back, it's not good for your health." ”

Unexpectedly, the old man said nonchalantly: "Uncomfortable? It's not uncomfortable. Speaking of this, the old man paused and continued: "Do you mean that ginseng? Ahem, maybe it didn't belong to me in the first place, so I ran away, it's okay, don't worry. ”

Hou Bin was dizzy by the old man at this time, when he was in the village, in order to let Hou Bin accompany him up the mountain to find ginseng, he cried urgently, but now that the ginseng is gone, he looks like nothing happened, thinking of this, Hou Bin thought about it again, as long as the old man is fine.

"Then uncle, if you're okay, I'll send you home, and then we have to go back to the second uncle quickly." Hou Bin walked to the old man's side and helped the old man and said.

The old man said with a smile on his face: "No, no." I can do it myself, you can go back quickly, this has been delaying you for a long time. ”

After a period of pushing, the old man finally went back by himself, and when he left, he told Hou Bin a few words that if he encountered any emergencies in the Weeping Cave, he could go to the village to find him.

Besides, Hou Bin and the monkey hurried back to the second uncle, the two of them saw that they were almost at the place, and they heard the sound of the second uncle snoring, at this time the two of them were very happy, it seems that the second uncle has been sleeping, if he wakes up, he will definitely find them, and it is impossible to lie down and sleep again. The two of them were lying on tiptoe next to the second uncle, it was already the second half of the night at this time, they were busy for half the night, and they were tired enough, and the two of them soon fell asleep.

Anyway, the next morning, the second uncle woke up very early, and seeing the two people sleeping next to him like dead pigs, the second uncle wanted to call Hou Bin to get up, and just squatted next to Hou Bin, he found that Hou Bin still had a flashlight in his hand. Did the two of them go out last night? Thinking of this, the second uncle hurriedly woke up Hou Bin and the others.

"Did you two sneak out last night while I was asleep?" The second uncle asked Hou Bin seriously.

Hou Bin quibbled at first, and finally when the second uncle asked about the flashlight, Hou Bin had no choice but to admit it, and told the second uncle what he had encountered, but the second uncle didn't say anything, and scolded them......

The three of them packed up their things and set off according to the place pointed out by the old man the night before. The reason why the second uncle believes the way pointed out by the old man is because the second uncle already knows from Hou Bin's description that he is not far from ten. As for what the second uncle knows, let's talk about it later.

To make a long story short, the three of them walked a long mountain road, crossed two ridges, and finally came to the Nightmare Crying Cave. The entrance to this cave is not very large, and there is a patch of weeds around it, and there is not even a road, so it seems that this place should be rarely visited. The three of them rested for a while, and the second uncle handed the torch prepared in advance to Hou Bin and the monkey, and then took the flashlight himself, and the three of them began to walk towards the cave.

Although the entrance to this cave is small, the inside is fine, but there is no light after walking far, and the only source of light can only rely on this flashlight. The second uncle walked in front with a flashlight, and the monkey and Hou Bin followed. After walking for a while, I faintly heard the sound of water droplets, and it seemed that the environment in this cave was very suitable for the life of a weeping nightmare.

At this time, Hou Bin looked at the torch in his hand and asked the second uncle: "Second uncle, it's too dark here, let's light the torch?" ”

I didn't want the second uncle to turn around and say, "No, this torch is not for lighting." ”

"Torches aren't there for lighting? What's that for? Hou Bin felt that his head was big at this time, he met a neurotic old man last night, and today the second uncle said that the torch is not for lighting.

The second uncle turned his head and said as he walked forward: "Nightmare has lived in this dark and damp cave all its life, and what it hates most is light, and what it fears most is fire. So this torch is for it. ”

Hou Bin then understood, the three of them turned left and right in the dark hole for a long time, and suddenly heard a noise like a man crying from nowhere, and the sound sounded a little echo. Judging by this echo, the place must have been empty. When Hou Bin and the monkey heard this, they immediately became nervous and cautiously followed behind the second uncle.

At the same time, the second uncle raised his hand, stopped there, turned around and whispered to the two people: "It seems that we found the nightmare crying, and the sound is not very far away from us." ”

"What? Is this the cry of a nightmare? Hou Bin also asked the second uncle in a low voice.

The second uncle nodded and said, "Well, don't talk, you two follow me, be careful, maybe you will accidentally step on one." The second uncle said and walked forward cautiously. Hou Bin and the monkey heard the old man say that this thing was very fierce and poisonous, and when the second uncle said this, they became even more nervous, for fear that they would really step on it. This animal is either sensitive to sight, or has an abnormal sense of hearing or smell. You can't see it, it probably senses your presence. So the two of them were cautious and worried about every step they took at this time. At this time, the second uncle took a flashlight to shine on the ground for a while, and then to shine forward, he knew that this thing might have a single run out, in case it was really bitten, it was not a joke.

The three of them continued to walk for a while, and the hole became more and more empty, and there was the sound of water flowing. It seems that there is an underground river in this cave. The second uncle walked and inadvertently caught a nightmare cry, the nightmare cry instantly turned his head over, opened his big mouth, two rows of sharp teeth were exposed, and his long tongue kept wriggling.

The second uncle took the cross-body backpack he was carrying with him off his body and threw it on the ground. casually took out an evil spirit from behind him and held it in his hand, handed the flashlight to Hou Bin, and then said: "Prepare to light a torch, one for each of you two, take it for self-defense, and then light one for me too." ”

The two of them hurriedly took out lighters, lit torches, and handed one to the second uncle.

"Second uncle, what are we going to do next?" Hou Bin was also a little nervous at this time, and walked behind the second uncle and asked.

"I'm in charge of catching Nightmare Crying, and I'm going to say that you two are in charge of cramps. But be careful, keep an eye on your surroundings, and if a nightmare crawls up to you and attacks you, remember to burn it with a torch and you'll be fine. The second uncle said, and handed the evil spirit in his hand to Hou Bin, "Take this, if you're lucky, you can catch it too." With that, the second uncle took the other evil spirit behind him in his hand and walked in the direction of the nightmare.

When the second uncle walked forward, some of the runaway nightmares cried and saw that there were torches, so they crawled back, and from time to time they turned back with a big mouth and made a fierce cry, trying to scare off the enemy, that is, the second uncle. Of course, the second uncle will not be deceived by this little trick, and the second uncle is cautiously walking forward at this time while looking for a target that can be attacked.

It is said that the second uncle is getting closer and closer to the group of nightmare crying in front of him, and those nightmare crying are densely packed together, climbing up and down, making various sounds from time to time, which makes people uncomfortable to watch. At this time, the second uncle suddenly found that there was a nightmare crying behind him secretly following him, trying to sneak attack the second uncle, and the second uncle also wanted to plan and give it a return pistol when it was close enough.

The second uncle slowed down and walked forward cautiously, sneaking a glance back from time to time. There is a problem with Nightmare Crying, he likes to roar when he attacks, just like when we are fighting, we like to shout every punch or action. The second uncle also knew that this guy had this habit, so he not only looked with his eyes, but also listened with his ears all the time.

Besides, the back nightmare cry is already relatively close to the second uncle, it thinks it has reached its attack range, suddenly jumped, and at the same time made a loud roar and ran to the second uncle to bite over, and the second uncle also reacted quickly at this time, a turn around and a gong just cut on the head of this nightmare, only to hear a scream, and then this nightmare cry fell heavily to the ground, struggled twice, and the three-meter-long nightmare cry fell to the ground and did not move. And at this moment, the nightmare cries behind the second uncle took the opportunity to surge up, and let out bursts of roars. The second uncle hurriedly turned around, took the torch and drew a circle close to the ground, and when he saw these nightmares crying, he retreated again.

The second uncle's series of actions were clearly seen by Hou Bin and the two not far away, Hou Bin looked at this scene at this time, this heart was a little itchy again, and he turned back to the monkey and said: "It seems that this guy is just a paper tiger, I didn't expect it to be so easy to deal with, I can do it." My second uncle and I are responsible for catching the nightmare crying, and you will cramp yourself in a while. With that, Hou Bin also slowly walked towards the second uncle.

The monkey only has a torch in his hand, and nothing else, unlike the second uncle and Hou Bin who also have an evil witch in their hands, the monkey saw that Hou Bin was going to cry with the second uncle, he was a little nervous, "No, the second uncle said that we should wait here, but he didn't say let you go." What should I do if you go? ”

Hou Bin didn't even look back at this time and said: "Oh, it's okay, what are you afraid of, if there is a nightmare crying and crawling over, you can burn them with a torch, it's okay." With that, Hou Bin walked forward.
