Before dawn the next day, I heard a noisy sound outside the house, and the footsteps of many people, mixed with rough shouting. Zhou Yuefeng turned over and sat up. At this time, Dongzi also woke up, "Brother Feng, are those villagers looking for it?" "Definitely, I'll go out and have a look."

Zhou Yuefeng got up and put on the well-fitting black tracksuit and went out, Guo Zhendong pushed Ma Mingyuan, who was still asleep, this guy was tired. After stabbing a few times, he hummed and continued to sleep, plucking his ears to no avail, Dongzi had no choice, and he put on his clothes and went out.

As soon as I went out, I saw Zhou Yuefeng and the old two and a family of three studying the hiding place, to say that the old man sometimes has some mistakes, he saw his daughter come back last night, and he was happy to patronize it, so he slept directly, and did not hide his daughter first. At this time, it has been "overwhelmed by the soldiers", where can this run.

The old couple was anxious, listening to the shouting outside getting closer and closer, and beads of sweat appeared on their heads. "Uncle, do you have a back door here or something that leads to the outside of the house?" Zhou Yuefeng said calmly. The old man was a little anxious, "Child, it's too late to hide at this time, why do you still go out?" ”

"The most dangerous place is sometimes the safest, they must be focusing on your house now, at this time, letting Xiaomei escape is the wisest choice." Dongzi understood what Yue Feng meant, and explained with a frown. "Old man, isn't there a dog hole in our backyard? You can get out from the back and you can go downhill. The eldest lady said in a hurry.

"Mother, I'm afraid." Xiaomei looked at the dark sky outside, and hid behind the old lady as she spoke. "Dongzi, you take Xiaomei out, escort her to the hotel at the bottom of the mountain, find that uncle, and return as soon as you settle down." Dongzi looked at Xiaomei and was slightly embarrassed.

"Go, it's okay, I'm waiting for you here with the horse monkey, if you don't come back, we won't go on an adventure." Yue Feng deliberately said this in order not to let the old couple suspect. "Okay, without further ado, Xiaomei, let's go." The two of them set off with simple luggage.

Not long after leaving, the village chief broke into the door with the villagers. "Di Laohan, did your daughter run back? Hand her over! The village chief shouted first, and then the other villagers, some with nail rakes, some with forks, and some with pickaxes, stamped and shouted "Hand it over!" Hand it over! ”。

"Uncle, my daughter has been watched by you since she was sent, where have I seen it." Di Laohan cried and said, look how her mother has cried. "She ran away, where will she go if she doesn't go home, hand it over quickly!" Because this matter is related to the livelihood of the village, the village chief disregards his former face and believes that his daughter is in the old man's house.

"Search for me." As soon as the village chief gave the order, everyone scattered around Di Laohan's house, rummaging around, breaking pots and pans, and throwing chickens and ducks flying all over the sky. The old lady was frightened and worried when she saw it, and she cried even more. At this time, someone suddenly shouted, "Village chief, there are people in Xiaomei's house." ”

Everyone thought that Xiaomei was hiding in the house, and suddenly her eyes flashed out, and the village chief led the villagers to rush in, and as soon as she pushed the door open, she saw the horse monkey rubbing her sleepy eyes and looking at everyone, and there were two young men in black clothes sleeping next to them. "What's going on?" The corners of the horse monkey's mouth still drooped. He should still be asleep.

Suddenly, everyone was stunned for a few seconds, "Look at it, I said no, these four babies are here to explore, and they stayed at my house last night." "Di Laohan hurried over to relieve the siege." Search carefully. The village chief still didn't give up, and continued to lead the villagers to turn the old man's house upside down. In the end, nothing was found, so he could only return in vain, and when he left, he did not forget to take away two eggs that had just been laid by the hen in Di Laohan's house.

After everyone left, the old lady still had palpitations, and the horse monkey finally woke up after this toss, "Brother Feng, what about Dongzi and Xiaomei?" "That baby ran away from the backyard with my daughter, hey~ I don't know when I will come back." After speaking, there were tears in the old man's eyes.

"Uncle, don't worry, Dongzi will definitely settle Xiaomei safely." Yue Feng comforted the old couple. "Children, thanks to you this time, you are our great benefactor." As she spoke, the old lady was about to kneel. The horse monkey hurriedly helped the old lady up. "Who made us progressive youths!"

In the following time, the two of them lacked Dongzi, a "master" who looked at feng shui and searched for treasures, so they could only wander around the village. But the more they walked, the more they discovered the mystery of this ancient village.

inadvertently walked on a high ground, "Brother Feng, haven't you noticed, the shape of this village is quite chic, you see, it is square and round, and it is quite good-looking." Zhou Yuefeng looked down and suddenly felt something.

"Horse monkey, you see that this village doesn't look like a gossip, with eight corners on the outside and two yin and yang fish in the middle." Zhou Yuefeng said while thinking. "Hey, Brother Feng, listening to you say that, it's really true." He glanced at Yue Feng, only to see that his brow was furrowed.

"What's wrong, Brother Feng, is there anything wrong?" "I found that this gossip, there is a corner that is missing, you take a closer look, isn't it the location in Di Laohan's house? And there seems to be something there. Yue Feng said. It should be the smoke from Di Laohan's cooking, but the smoke is also strange, like a hydra. ”

Zhou Yuefeng always felt that there was something strange, but he couldn't say it, "Let's go back first, lest Dongzi come back and can't find us." Then the two men walked towards the village. Coming back? Meizi and her mother have already cooked the meal, just waiting for you to come back. "Uncle, is my brother back?" The horse monkey asked.

"Not yet, it's going to be dark, I'm afraid he will get lost on the mountain road alone, I'll pick him up, you can eat in the first room." The uncle walked out with a gun on his back. "Uncle, I'll be with you, and I have a helper." Yue Feng followed and walked out. "Let's eat, you are not familiar with the road here, and I will take you slowly."

The old man quickly disappeared into the woods. The two of them had no choice but to go into the house to eat, and when they picked up the rice bowl and were about to eat, they saw a strange pattern painted in the bowl. The horse monkey shouted, "Brother Feng, look, isn't the pattern in this bowl the appearance of that smoke?" ”

When the old lady heard this, she quickly made a gesture and told them to shut up. "Okay, horse monkey, don't talk about it, let's eat." Yue Feng took his chopsticks and knocked on the bowl of the horse monkey.

In the evening, the old man and Dongzi have not come back, the horse monkey has always been very curious, the more he doesn't want him to know, the more curious he is, he endured it or not, and came to find the old lady. "Auntie, I want to ask, that ......" "You are my family's savior, just say anything." Do you want to ask about that pattern? ”

"Auntie, you are really an understanding person, I just want to ask what the hell is going on." The horse monkey is a little impatient. The eldest lady closed the windows and doors, and when she closed them, she did not forget to stick her head out to look, as if to prevent the partition wall from having ears. "Call that baby to listen to it."

"This has to start a long time ago, it is said that a long time ago, a god put a monster in our place, and then a master used this monster to do a trick, let it guard a secret, and I almost forgot the specific legend." The eldest lady said mysteriously.

"Is that the pattern the monster?" The horse monkey always asks such idiotic questions, and there is no way to make a jump. "Yes, we call it 'Shenlong' here, and it's the one who asked Xiaomei to sacrifice." Saying that, the eldest lady's eyes were full of tears again.

"We have never seen it before, but we know that it must be sent out every year to unmarried women for sacrifice, otherwise there will be disasters, there will be fires in the water, and the farmland will be roasted with no harvest." The eldest lady said helplessly. "Then you still print it on the bowl, it's not taboo." Horse Monkey Road.

"This habit has been passed down since ancient times, and those who burn bowls are also used to it, saying that they can ask for a full meal." "TMD, this monster is really not a thing." The horse monkey was excited again. The old lady covered his mouth, "Don't you dare to talk nonsense, let the dragon hear it, and he will catch you and go to hell." ’”

"Squeak...... A gust of wind blew them away, and a mess of leaves swirled into the house. All three of them were agitated, and after a long time there was no movement, only to know that it was a false alarm. The old lady had just closed the door when suddenly it opened again. One of Yuefeng's conditioned reflexes jumped to the door and put the frog sword on the neck of the person who came, "Brother Feng, it's me." ”

Yue Feng looked at it and breathed a sigh of relief. "Dongzi, why did you come back?" The old man also walked in the back. "Don't mention it, this mountain road looks the same, when I go down, there is Xiaomei to lead the way, when I return, I got lost, and I turned around the mountain several times, thanks to the uncle, otherwise I would still be turning on the mountain now." Dongzi looked exhausted.

"Go get us two something to eat." The old man said to the old lady while putting the earthen gun away. "Child, my Xiaomei is fine." If you are a mother, you don't worry about your children. "Well, Sister Xiaomei has been placed by me, don't worry." The old lady smiled and went to the kitchen to get food.

At night, the five of them still slept in Xiaomei's room, and the two younger brothers were guarding the door, and the three of them made a summary of what they saw that day: the mysterious ancient village gossip map, the strangely shaped smoke, the missing gossip corner, the ancient legend and the graphics on the bowl......

"Dongzi, what do you think of these?" Yue Feng asked. "I can't figure it out yet, but I always have a feeling that these must be related to what we're looking for." Three people were lying on the ground. Looking at the reddened moon outside, each thinking about his own thoughts. The horse monkey thinks, "When will I find the treasure?" Yuefeng was wondering, "What kind of relationship do these have with the revelation of ancient precepts......
