People who live in the reinforced concrete jungle of the city all year round can hardly understand the strong expectation of the tiles above their heads when they are caught in a torrential rain in the woodland wilderness.

Because I haven't experienced it myself, I don't feel it.

The big tiled house is not as good as it was before, and there is a light rain leaking sporadically inside, but most of the place is quite dry, which makes people can't help but rejoice. We rushed in, each found a dry place to rest, removed our bags from our backs, shook off the stagnant water, and laid them all down on a wooden bed with only slats left in the back of the main room.

With all this in place, we couldn't help but stretch beautifully and curse at the weather on this damn day.

Before this, Lao Zhao and Teng Xiao had already searched this house, it was three tiled houses, not big, one hall and two bedrooms; Then there was a large wooden shed at the back of the house, which was the kitchen and a place where some tools were piled up.

Not far from the left side of the house, there are two small thatched huts, one is a thatched pit and the other is a place to raise livestock.

There was basically no furniture in the room, although the Lisu mountain people who lived here at that time were far away, but when they moved, everything they could move was still moved, so in addition to a few bare beds and a rough small wooden table, there were some furniture with missing arms and short legs, which was very messy. But compared to the pouring rain outside, we are already very grateful to the owner who did not remove the tiles from his head.

Lao Zhao and Teng Xiao picked up a few bundles of dry firewood from under the shed behind and came to the house happily.

I went up to see that although the dry wood was a little wet, it was still possible to light a fire in the middle. With this dry wood, we were able to make a fire, get some hot food, and bake our soaked bodies and clothes. I saw that everyone was busy making a fire, so I didn't come forward to help, but went to the front of the house, stared at the numbing sound of rain and tiles overhead, and then looked at the dim earth outside.

Wang Xiaojia didn't stay in the house, she was still suspicious, and used a strong flashlight to scan the mountain village of climbing ghost slopes, which was about to fall into darkness, and saw me coming, saying Do you know what is called climbing ghost slopes here?

I shook my head and said I don't know what to say, she said in a low tone, saying that more than sixty or seventy years ago, there was a war at the junction of China and Burma (including China and Burma), the Chinese expeditionary force and the Japanese invaders fought to the death, countless heroic Chinese sons and daughters fell in this green field, and there were countless hateful invaders who could not return to the cherry blossom trees, and the battle that took place in this place was really very small compared to the whole war, not worth mentioning, but later the mountain people here can always hear the sound of gunfire and the cry of ghosts, Then you can always see a dark shadow wriggling down the hillside.

The Lisu people are the ancient Qiang people who moved south, also known as "Shi Man", "Shun Man", "Wu Man", believe in witchcraft, so people are panicked, and it has been a long time, and finally when the millennium comes, under the coordination of the higher government, the relocation has been completed.

I sigh that the seven deadly sins of mankind are pride, jealousy, anger, laziness, greed, gluttony, and lust, but the greatest original sin is war. Whether the starting point is good or bad, it will cause a large number of deaths of the same kind, and these people who died tragically in the war usually have resentment, and the souls of grievances are not dispersed, if there is enough resentment, it can indeed cause this phenomenon as rumored.

Whenever there are troubled times, people are not as good as dogs, and the legend of the lonely soul and wild ghost will flourish greatly.

Using the sacrifice of most people to forge the achievements of some people is the same as today's real estate developers.

Wang Xiaojia said that a cordon needs to be arranged on the periphery for a while, not only to prevent other squads that may appear, but also to prevent possible dangers here - look at this hillside facing north, like a mountain recess, accumulating yin and remnants, and it is completely eerie and terrifying, and I don't know how the Lisu wizards here were selected in the past.

I laughed and said that you are really an occupational disease, you look at this mountain village, counting the collapsed houses, there are only about a dozen households, the life of slash-and-burn farming, naturally more is to consider the agricultural time, all of them, to meet the most basic physiological needs, fill the stomach, and then talk about other things. You go in first, get the clothes on your body, otherwise it's not good to catch a cold, and after a while, we'll arrange it together.

Wang Xiaojia nodded, turned and went into the house, while I still looked at the mountain poured by the heavy rain.

I didn't see Yin Yue, this female instructor did not participate in our operations, she only existed as a backup to receive us at any time and liaise with the headquarters, and she was always in our rear. But I don't have to worry too much about her, as one of the Seven Swords, the leader of the Religious Bureau, there must be a lot of resources poured into her, and there is no limit to trials, and there are many more treasures on her body than us.

It's just that a girl's family, acting alone in this deep mountain, is too lonely.

Just like Robert Neville in "I Am Legend", loneliness will make people's hearts suffer the greatest fear, and it is difficult to get rid of it. But I still hope that she can self-regulate and not be too tired.

"Lu Zuo, Lu Zuo ......"

Someone called me, I turned around, walked into the hall, and after a while the big guy had already lit the fire, Lao Zhao found a broken pot with only half an ear, got some water, and was making evening food on it. March and April are the seasons when the spring ferns are in full bloom, and along the way, we all take care to collect edible plants, fruits and stems, plus some seasonings and dry food we bring with us, and boil them into a large pot of batter.

Although the taste is not satisfactory, it can also replenish the body and fill the stomach.

The thick soup in the pot was not opened, but Qin Zhen took out a bag of things from his arms and opened them, all of them were wriggling fat white worms, these high-protein things can become the best nutrients, bringing quick recovery to Qin Zhen's wounds.

Ladies are naturally terrified of these bugs, far away, and we are not interested in trying them when we have a better choice. Qin Zhen was a little disappointed, found a few homemade wooden skewers, skewered these insects, and then roasted them and ate them. The injury on Qin Zhen's leg was a little recurrent because he had been on the road for a day and soaked in rain, Zhu Chenchen found some herbs on the way here, and had just pounded some grass juice and put it on him, and then used the marching iron lunch box to boil some decoction and medicine.

Qin Zhen, who was eating roasted insects, looked very optimistic, constantly licking his lips with his tongue, tempting everyone to eat insects, and then being scolded so much that his dog's head spurted blood. I asked him to give a little bit of worms to my golden silkworm Gu, and as a reward, the fat worm dredged his wound again, and he screamed so refreshedly, his eyes narrowed, and he inhaled cold air in one gulp.

After experiencing life and death, naturally there is no need to be too evasive, the little demon Duoduo and Duoduo have come out, and I have introduced it to you - of course, I will not tell you all the details of the two little guys. But Rao was like this, and everyone looked at me sideways, very surprised.

Especially Qin Zhen, a handsome guy with a beard, this kid's smile is particularly obscene, with a look of your boy's glamorous expression.

Seeing him like this, I can't wait to let the fat worm give him a slap in the face of "chrysanthemums blooming" - Lao Tzu is a very serious and serious person!

Seeing that the bonfire was lit, everyone took off their long clothes and trousers, and roasted around the fire, waiting for the arrival of dinner.

I told Wang Xiaojia and my guess, and everyone immediately reacted that we were not camping and having a dinner, but a trial of life and death. When it comes to the method of early warning, Bai Lutan and Lao Zhao have their own methods, so after discussing the personnel on duty at night, I accompanied Bai Lutan to arrange the inner line, and Wang Xiaojia followed Lao Zhao to the periphery to arrange the cordon.

Be careful to make the ship of ten thousand years, this truth will remain unchanged through the ages.

Draped in a rainproof cloth, Bai Lutan and I arranged it in three or four people's houses and a range of more than ten meters. Her method is simple: spit on the palm of her hand, rub it vigorously, and slap it on trees, walls, and dirt. From my senses, Bai Lutan didn't use any thoughts at all, but just attached his own breath to it.

It's a very magical method, it's different from the Taoism or witchcraft I know, I can't help but be curious, and ask her what this thing is? She was a little shy, thought for a while, and blushed and told me, you just think this is spiritism, just like you and your family.

Once we were set up, we headed back to the tiled house, where we had a hot dinner by the vigorous campfire, then put the wooden beds together and began to study the route for tomorrow. Our next stop is Maggi Cave, but if the torrential rain continues, we may not be able to walk through the torrential rain and muddy and dangerous mountain roads, and we will have to delay for a day.

After all, if we fall on a slippery mountain road, we will not survive.

But that was tomorrow, and after a tiring day, except for two people on duty, baking laundry, and guarding the outside, everyone else was wrapped in damp blankets and rested around the campfire. Bai Lutan and I were on the first shift, and when it was about eleven o'clock, she suddenly frowned, and grabbed me tightly, I did not know what she meant, and followed her to the door, only to see that on the opposite side of the hillside of the black crow, there was a hut, and there were a few slowly moving black shadows.

The shadow seemed to sense our attention, and turned to look over, and for a moment, I felt a pair of dark and gloomy eyes.

Bai Lutan's whole body tightened, and he couldn't help but shout loudly: "There is a situation!" ”
