The two of us seemed to be listening to the commentary, and we thought Yang Hui's speech was very fascinating. I didn't expect him to suddenly ask a question when he talked about the key point, Sister Li and I tilted our heads and thought about it for a while, and then casually said a few unreliable answers.

Of course, I didn't guess correctly, if even we guessed correctly, then the blind man would not be a strange person.

Yang Hui saw that we didn't guess at all, so he smiled playfully and said, "I know you can't guess either, ha." Then I'll tell you the answer.

In the bag behind the tall blind man, he brought a few small rabbits, and every time he ran a section, he took out one rabbit and released it, and these rabbits all had the urine of the tall blind man.

And the escape route of the tall blind man is also different from the others, and on his escape route, there is a field that has just been dung.

With these two tricks, you can completely get rid of the tracking of the Qing army hounds. Because with the amazing sense of smell of the high blind man, he knows better than anyone that it is impossible to get rid of his own smell in the process of escaping, and as I said earlier, the more people are in a state of frenzied escape and fast running, the more hormones and sweat will be secreted, which will make your smell stronger, and the easier it will be for the hound to track.

The brilliance of these two tricks can be summed up in six words, which is 'the opposite', that is, since I can't get rid of my own smell, then I will strengthen the smell and use these smells to disrupt your olfactory tracking. Having a rabbit with a strong smell of urine, and this smell extending in different directions, will make a lot of confusion hounds. And the most desperate thing for him is to run through the fields full of dung, such a strong smell will completely disturb the hound's sense of smell.

Why did he come up with these methods? It's not because he knows any science, but because he's a person with a sense of smell as fast as a dog, and he comes up with these methods completely intuitively. ”

Sister Li and I listened stunned, I really couldn't imagine that there was such a wonderful story in our county chronicles, to be precise, it is probably not a story, but a living historical fact that has happened.

I suddenly thought of a question, so I asked Yang Hui: "Brother Hui, why don't you tell him this method to a few other swordsmen?" In this way, a few other people, can they successfully escape? ”

Yang Hui's eyes lit up, and he praised me and said: "Good question, it's really the same as the hero's vision, I also thought so when I saw this, but then the county chronicle explained that the reason why the blind man didn't tell others was "intentional", and the purpose was to "sacrifice others for himself", that is, he did it on purpose, and he used other people's arrest to divert the target, so as to reduce his own danger.

In the night when you can't see your fingers, those swordsmen with normal vision may not have an advantage over the tall blind man when they escape, plus there is no lighting at that time, at most with a torch or something, they can't shine far, so just this kind of escape ability in the dark night, the high blind man with a dog-like sense of smell is slightly better. And the other swordsmen who participated in the operation fell victim to cover the escape of the blind man. ”

After listening to this, Sister Li couldn't help but sigh and said: "The blind man is really insidious and vicious."

I couldn't help but shake my head and sigh: "I didn't expect there to be this strange person in our county."

"Haha, yes, it's from our county, and it's not very far from your village, Gaojiatun, you know? It's only about 20 miles away from your village, right? Yang Hui took a sip of coffee, then leaned back on the sofa and asked me.

"Gaojiatun? Is Gao Blind from Gaojiatun? That's really not far from us. Less than twenty miles, only fifteen or sixteen miles away" I don't know why, when I said this, my body couldn't help but shake up, and I whispered and said to Sister Li in a low voice and a little surprised: "The surname Gao in our village is a foreigner, and it seems that he moved from Gaojiatun, could it be that Grandpa Gao still has a relationship with this blind man?" ”。

After listening to my words, Sister Li's eyes couldn't help but light up, as if she thought of something.

These exchanges between me and Sister Li were all seen by Yang Hui, but he seemed to be a little "at a loss for the second monk", and he didn't know what we were talking about.

Due to various concerns, the two of us were not going to tell Yang Hui too much, especially about those strange events. However, I didn't expect to talk to him so speculatively, and I felt that he was indeed trustworthy, and that he was knowledgeable and open to mysterious things that science could not yet explain. All this makes us willing to confide in him about those most horrible experiences.

Sister Li and I tacitly glanced at each other, Sister Li nodded at me very tacitly, I know, she agreed.

So Sister Li and I started from this box, and told Yang Hui all the horrors we experienced, of course, I didn't say anything about our ** exchange.

I also told Yang Hui about the strangeness I encountered in our village from childhood to adulthood.

This time Yang Hui became the audience, he listened very attentively, the expression on his face was sometimes surprised, sometimes curious, sometimes frightened, and sometimes contemplative.

Sister Li and I complemented each other from time to time, and in the process of talking, we felt an inexplicable ease and pleasure, and a sense of pleasure in talking.

Yang Hui listened quietly without interjecting a word, until about five minutes after we finished speaking, he still sat there without saying a word, deep in thought. The room was so quiet, we seemed to be still immersed in the mysterious and terrifying world we just mentioned.

I wanted to break this somewhat uncomfortable silence, and shouted softly: "Brother Hui, what are you thinking?" ”

Yang Huicai suddenly seemed to wake up from a dream, and then said to me without a head: "Have you ever thought about it, is it possible that Grandpa Gao is blind?" ”

Sister Li and I couldn't help but say in unison, "How is it possible? ”

Yes, how is it possible, Gao Blind is a person in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties, the Qing Dynasty has existed for 268 years from its establishment to its demise, and Grandpa Gao is really a Gao blind man, at least more than 400 years old. How could this thoughtful Brother Hui come to such a ridiculous conclusion?

Yang Hui seemed to see our full of questions, and explained with a smile: "Do you think it's ridiculous? But I have a good reason to come to this conclusion.

First of all, the county chronicle said that there was a shadow in the eyes of the blind man, and Xiao Ming also mentioned it just now, saying that there was a shadow in Grandpa Gao's eyes, and the strange cat also had a shadow in his eyes, which was a very interesting coincidence.

In addition, as for age, not only is it said that Peng Zu lived for more than 800 years. There are similar examples in modern history, there is a Chinese medicine doctor named Li Qingyun, he was born in 1677, died in 1933, lived 256 years, on May 15, 1933, the American "Time" (TIME), an article called "Tortoise-Pigeon-Dog" (Tortoise-Pigeon-Dog), is written about this strange person. Chiang Kai-shek also personally received him. In addition, Li Jun of the Tang Dynasty is also said to have lived to be 443 years old.

Xiao Ming, you can ask when you go back to the village to see what Grandpa Gao's origin is, whether anyone has seen him when he was young, or whether there are old people in the village who grew up with him, so that you can figure it out."
