Hu sat paralyzed on the side and bowed his head, everyone's money, including his, was placed on the table, which seemed to be almost enough. Lao Wu asked Blind Langzhong where he could buy precious medicinal materials? Not far away or something, Blind Langzhong wrote two words on the paper of the list.

Xiao Qi stood aside, he looked at the words on the paper and read out strangely: "Dead monkey? ”

In the dead of night, Lao Wu carried a thick amount of money in his pocket, took Wen Shenglian and Xiao Qi, and walked to the place where he could buy medicinal herbs as he said in the blind man. Walking on the empty streets in the moonlight, I walked out of the city after a while.

A few people walked in a hurry, and they didn't have time to bring lighting tools, and they couldn't see the distance clearly on the deserted road outside the county. Fortunately, Wen Shenglian had the eyes of the racing cat, Lao Wu pointed in a direction, and then he led the way.

When Lao Wu left, he also asked for a few rolled old dry cigarettes from the fourth child, and when he was tired, he took out two and held them in his mouth, and blew the cigarette with Xiao Qi to break the fire, took a puff and handed it to Wen Shenglian, who led the way in front.

Wen Sheng was even covered in sweat from being frightened by his son's incident just now, and his clothes were soaked, and at this time, he was shivering with cold when the wind was blowing like this in the night. Hearing Lao Wu calling him behind him, he turned around and saw Lao Wu stretching out a cigarette, so he quickly clasped his fists with both hands and thanked him for taking a few puffs, which really relieved some of his big smoking addiction and regained some strength in his body. Turning his face and nodding, he said to Lao Wu: "Big brother, I have added so much trouble to you, and you still help me like this, I really don't know what to say." ”

Lao Wu took a slow puff of cigarette, then looked at the smoke he spit out and said lightly: "Don't thank me, thank you for not being a villain." ”

This is said very vaguely, Wen Sheng is not stupid and can naturally understand, so he laughed a few times and said: "I am also forced by life, as long as I have half a star of craftsmanship, I will not do this business, I almost gave my life today, don't you say?" ”

Xiao Qi walked at the end, he looked at the nearby mountain beam, walked two steps quickly to catch up and asked Lao Wu: "Big brother!" Where is the place where the blind man Jiang said? Why haven't I heard of it? Wen Sheng even turned around when he heard this and said, "Yes, yes, what is a dead monkey?" I've never heard of it as a local, but we're on the right path. ”

Lao Wu's face was heavy, he threw down his cigarette butt, looked up at the moon in the sky, and then lowered his voice and said: "The dead monkey is a village, not far from the county seat, just behind the mountain in front, I passed by there when I first came from Shaanxi. ”

The place where the dead monkeys are supposed to be called Linxia Village, this village has a population of less than 100 people, and there are very few young and middle-aged people, all of whom are old and weak women and children. The village is built on the slope under a dense forest, the land in the village is very scarce, in the early years it was by hunting and logging in the mountains for a living, and later began to grow medicinal herbs in the mountain forest, and gradually there was some money.

Just a few years ago, there was a person in Linxia Village, nicknamed "Four Monkeys". It is said that the four monkeys monopolize the medicinal material business in the village, and all the medicinal materials in the village must be sold outside through his hands, similar to the kind of ruffian second-way dealers.

If the medicinal herbs sold outside are ten yuan, then he will collect two yuan in the village. If you don't sell it, you can't do it, he specially carries **, and when he enters someone's house, he has to smash pots and pots, and he has to chop his arms and legs, who is not afraid of him, and he has no choice but to sell all the medicinal materials to him. Relying on this method, the four monkeys made a lot of money and bought a mansion in the county town.

The four monkeys are thin but have a brute strength, that is, the muscles are all grown in the bones. After making a fortune by playing scoundrels and fighting, others still call him Four Monkeys, because no one knows what his name is. The four monkeys' family died early, he is still an only son, how can he say that he can't rank the fourth, why did he call the four monkeys?

Only the people in Linxia Village know about this, the four monkeys are his name, not a nickname, the surname of the family, the death of the death, the death of the princes, such a death candidate.

When it comes to China's five strange surnames, the dead surname can only be ranked second, and the first is the ghost surname. The remaining three surnames are old, difficult and a poisonous surname, with this kind of surname, it is not good to take any name, and it is very strange to call, especially this dead waiting, it sounds like a dead monkey, and it is definitely thought to be a nickname, but I don't know that people call it this name.

But why was the village called Dead Monkey in the future? This has something to do with his bizarre death in the future.

The sky was red and purple that Chinese New Year's Eve, and suddenly lightning and thunder began to roar, and the ground trembled with several thunderous explosions. If you are timid, you will hide at home, saying that this must be a spiritual creature to become an immortal fit, and you have to go through the catastrophe of the five thunders, and at this time you can't go out at this time, and you are easy to be killed by thunder.

Just in time to return to Linxia Village to do errands, he thought it was going to rain heavily when he saw this celestial phenomenon, so he hurried home. As a result, when he walked to an open place on the mountain beam, he was struck by a lightning bolt that suddenly fell from the sky, and the person was confused on the spot, and died a miserable death.

There are a lot of years for Lei to die, and the death is not a big person, and the people in the village are quite happy when he dies, because there is one less scourge, but this matter is not so simple.

In the old days, there were many old calendars, and there were many strange things in the old days. It is said that when everyone heard that the dead were waiting for the thunder to be chopped to death on the mountain beam, everyone was burned, and those who were okay ran to see the excitement, but when they arrived at the place, they all looked frightened.

The dead man was black and stiff, lying face down on the ground, and the clothes on his body were all burned, and there was a flesh-colored word "death" on his back. Looking at the font, it doesn't look like it was formed unintentionally, it's particularly clear, and you can see the tough and powerful pen, and the people present are suspicious that they have done too many bad things when they die, and God wrote a dead word on the back, which is equivalent to a death sentence, and Lei Gong immediately hacked him to death after seeing it.

These are all superstitious sayings in the old days, but in fact, the dead word on the back of the dead is a special tattoo handed down from his ancestors. The people of their family are proud of their dead surname, but they don't say it easily, so they use a special trick to tattoo the back of the descendants of the dead surname not long after they are born, and it can only be used when they encounter hot water. As a result, this dead candidate was struck to death by lightning, and his whole body was on fire, and only the skin of the tattoo on the back was still preserved, and such a bizarre and strange thing happened. At that time, it was also quite sensational, and when people mentioned Linxia Village, they naturally remembered the death of being killed by lightning, and over time, they directly called Linxia Village with dead monkeys.

Lao Wu only knows a little about these things, he really doesn't understand what is going on, but there is nothing to say, their purpose is just to buy medicinal materials, in fact, it doesn't matter if they know it or not.

The straight-line distance between Nanpo Village and Linxia Village, where the grave team lives, is really not too far, but the straight-line distance cannot be said in the mountains, and they generally have to turn the mountains and circle in the ravines when they go out. Otherwise, they will climb the mountain beam directly, but now at night, although they can't reach out and can't see their fingers, it is very dangerous to climb the unfamiliar mountain beam rashly, so they can only find the path and estimate the direction to Linxia Village.

Originally, the three of them were walking well, but suddenly Wen Shenglian stopped, turned around and pushed Lao Wu and Xiao Qi into the forest on the side of the path. Xiao Qi was shocked, he thought that Wen Shenglian wanted to harm them, so he was going to fight him.

Ke Wensheng put his hand to his mouth, made a silent gesture, and then pointed to the position behind him just now, and whispered: "Don't, don't get me wrong, I just heard something behind me, and I saw a white figure out of the corner of my eye, I don't know if it's a human or a ghost, but it followed us for so long!" ”
