It was dark, the ground was vast, and the wind blew the grass...... You can't even see cattle or sheep. Before I closed my eyes, a day passed, and after dinner at the house of my second father-in-law and two mothers-in-law, I came to a place that was relatively remote from the village and had a large open space.

Three tree trunks were planted in the ground by me and the county order, and three large strips of white cloth fluttered on the top of the trunks, and we followed the instructions left by the old man as they were, waiting to see if anyone came to us.

At this time, it was already twelve o'clock in the middle of the night, and almost all the people in the village were asleep, and these old people did not have to work in bed before going to bed like young people, and the old people's life was generally to sleep relatively early and get up ...... Very early, usually wake up at six or seven o'clock, and even wake up at five or six o'clock to cook or something.

The best time to do things is from 12 a.m. to 3 a.m., when there is no one active in the countryside.

"Xiaolong, did you say someone would come? We've been waiting for ten minutes. The county magistrate rubbed his hands, his cheeks trembled and said, "It's really fucking cold in this mountain, and I can't keep warm with two clothes." ”

"Didn't I tell you to bring more clothes, who told you not to bring them?" I smiled next to me and said, "I still have one in my bag, hurry up and take it and put it on, don't get cold...... I can't talk to your parents when I look back. ”

"But this person is really, it stands to reason that we are so tall and three white stripes, even a blind person should see it, it has been ten minutes and there has been no movement, it can't be asleep." I say.

"If you don't say anything about the clothes early, it will make me die of cold." The county magistrate sneezed into my bag, turned out one of my coats and wrapped it around me, and said, "This is really a good place to escape the heat, and it can be cold in the summer...... Jiao, I'm really drunk. ”

"I'm drunk, too, and I'm unconscious." I stared behind the prefectural magistrate and said, "Friend, why are you here?" My brother is getting cold...... Don't tell me you're late for dinner, damn! ”

When the county magistrate saw me talking behind his back, he quickly turned around, obviously frightened, and took two steps back.

Behind him stood a man in black with a strong body of about 1.8 meters, wrapped in black clothes all over his body, with a coat and hat on top of his head, it was dark in the sky, so with a hat, I couldn't see what he looked like at all.

When the black-robed man heard us complaining, he didn't speak, but bowed to me and the county commander respectively to show his apologies.

The county magistrate said: "It's okay, hurry up and find a place where the wind can't blow to talk about things, this is cold to me." ”

I nodded, and the county commander took the lead in walking to a muddy house not far away, and the black-robed man followed us and also came, but he didn't say a word the whole time, which made me feel a little weird.

I said, "Friend, why don't you say a word, let me introduce myself first, my name is Huang Xiaolong, you can call me Xiaolong." ”

The county order also said: "My name is Chen Xianling, you can call me the county order, we were entrusted by the old man, come over, he said you have something, what is the matter......" The county order obviously also felt that the black-robed man did not speak, and the atmosphere seemed a little weird, so he took the initiative to ask questions, and did not ask what the black-robed man was called.

The black-robed man bowed to us again, but still didn't speak, he bent down in front of me, and the moment he bent down, a strong wind blew into my face, and I was suddenly startled: "You are the one who was that night?" ”

The black-robed man nodded.

"Who?" The prefectural magistrate asked me.

I said, "Didn't I tell you that there were people walking around outside on the day we first came, and that this is the same wind that blew through me when I went out to look." ”

The black-robed man suddenly put his hand into his arms, took out a piece of paper, and handed it to me.

I took a look.,There are a few lines of words written crookedly on it.,The words are a little ugly.,And part of it is pinyin.,On the surface,The person who writes is obviously only a primary school culture.。

I took out my phone and asked the county order to help me shine it, and with the faint light of the phone, I was stunned to read it for more than 20 minutes before I understood what was written on it, and after reading it, a cold sweat broke out on my back.

The black-robed man in front of me turned out to be the missing Uncle Huangshan! After I roughly understood the contents of the letter, I read it out to the county order: "Xiaolong, I am your Uncle Huangshan......

When the county magistrate heard me read the first sentence, he looked at me with some horror. Huangshan, this disappeared person actually appeared in front of us!

I pulled the county order and signaled him not to panic, and I continued to read: "I knew you were coming as soon as you arrived in the village that day, and the old man said you could help me." That night I went to the door of your house and wanted to come in and look for you, but I was afraid that you would be frightened by me...... I think you've learned about the village, and there's something wrong with our ancestral grave! The old man tried his best to stop the things in the ancestral tomb for the time being, and did not eradicate the things inside. ”

"I'm sure you've heard about me...... They were right, I did kill a green snake, and then I don't know how to get it, but the night I was killed, the skin on my body began to molt...... I kept scratching, scratching, and my hands were covered with blood...... To figure out what was going on, I turned on the light and went to the mirror! But I saw that my head turned out to be the green snake's...... Snake head! ”

"I was very scared, afraid that my father and mother would see me, I thought it must be the green snake coming to me, I ran away that night, but I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, I actually returned to the place where I shot the green snake, in the middle of the night, I saw that the interior of our ancestral tomb mountain began to emit black smoke, constantly rising into the air, walking through the village, and it was at that time that I felt a sharp pain in my head...... Although I didn't see it, I guess I must have been red-eyed at the time, frantically destroying things around me, catching hares and pheasants and eating them raw......"

"I don't know what's wrong, but then I fainted, and by the time I woke up again, it was already dark...... After that, every day I would go crazy...... The only time I woke up during the day was to be woken up by the gunfire of the villagers, and a few men from the village had come to hunt, and I saw that they were about to enter the depths of the ancestral tomb mountain, so I had to come out and scare them away...... Because my gut tells me that I can't go inside at all......"

"Until one night, before I went crazy, an old man came, I also wanted to scare him away, but he saw me but was not afraid, he saw my problem at a glance, gave me something to drink, said that I was entangled by the snake spirit, the green snake was supposed to live for another hundred years and was about to become a sperm, but I killed it, and also killed its child, it was very resentful, coupled with the influence of the depths of the ancestral tomb mountain, it became a snake soul ......"

The old man said that he couldn't solve it, so he had to wait for Huang Xiaolong to come...... Later, he touched my body and said that I was a blessing in disguise, and the meridians that were originally blocked in my brain were dredged...... He warned me not to leave the depths of the Ancestral Tomb for a while, unless I waited until you came. Say you can help me get rid of the snake soul on my body...... That's the way it is. ”
