Professor Shan's experience was so strange that in the dim light, he continued: "After I learned something about the old man's experience, I was not only secretly surprised, but I couldn't imagine that the old man in front of me, who was not amazing, had such a tortuous life experience, but after listening to the old man continue, I was even more shocked by the old man's experience, and the old man's sad face continued: 'Speaking of which, this strange thing I encountered is really incredible, and I still feel like a dream when I think about it now.

I remember that it was a winter, and I braved the snow to go into the mountains to find a hermit, and it is said that the hermit was the best at treating infertility, so why should I brave the snow to go into the mountains? Actually, this is very dangerous, and it is supposed that you should wait until the weather is clear, but this is the fault of the matter, because the hermit only treats people on snowy days, and at other times, he will never treat patients, and no one knows why he has such a quirk.

At that time, I was climbing a steep hill with a local guide, who was about forty years old at the time, and who was specially taking people to see the hermit, and who knew him, where the hermit lived, and no one knew the relationship between the guide and the hermit, let alone the hermit's background.

What's even more strange is that the price of this guide is very high, and every time he takes someone into the mountain, he has to collect ten gold bars, while the hermit who sees a doctor does not charge a penny, which is even more strange.

My family was very rich at that time, and I was also eager to heal the sick, so I gave the guide two more gold bars, that is, a total of 12, and the guide was of course very happy and enthusiastic about my service. From the bottom of the mountain to the top of the mountain, you have to walk dozens of miles of mountain road, and you can't reach it in a day, but before dark, you have to rush to a cave, which is considered a place to spend the night halfway. Every time the guide takes someone up the mountain, he has to spend the night in that cave.

When we arrived at the cave, it was still some time before it was dark, but the guide said that we could not go any further, because there was no place to stay except this cave, and in this snowy day, if we could not find a place to stay, we might freeze to death at night.

Therefore, although I was anxious to see the hermit at once, I also knew that the guide was right, so I had to be patient and go into the cave. It is very strange that the cave is unusually warm, although there is heavy snow outside, the cold wind is cold, but the cave is warm in spring, and there are hot springs everywhere, I and the guide, but also took off our clothes, soaked in the hot springs, that is the first time I soaked in the hot springs, there is an indescribable comfort, as if every pore is incomparably smooth.

I soaked in the hot springs, and under the warm spring water, I felt a sense of sleepiness, so I climbed out of the hot springs, lay down on a stone next to the hot springs, and fell asleep unconsciously. The stone on which I was lying was on the edge of the hot spring, and it was not cold at all, but very warm, as if it were a hot kang burning just right.

I had never slept so soundly in my life, and when I woke up, it was already dawn outside the cave, and the guide next to me was still asleep, so I quickly woke him up and continued to hurry, it was still snowing outside, and if it snowed in that place, it would have been raining for many days, and the snow was almost knee-deep, and it was even more difficult to walk.

We arrived at the hermit's place in the early afternoon, and after more than half a day's trek, the two of us were a little exhausted, but when I saw that place, I couldn't help but be stunned, because the view there was incredible.

It had snowed so heavily that the hermit's place should have been covered with snow a long time ago, but strangely, I was surprised to find that there was no snow in the place where the hermit lived for several miles, and not only was there no snow, but there was still some green grass on the ground, and when I saw this scene, I couldn't believe my eyes.

But when I walked into the snow-free area, I immediately knew what was going on, because the ground in the snow-free area was very warm, like the warm stone I had slept on, was there a hot spring under the mountain? Or is there something else? But now I don't even know why.

Before I met the hermit, I originally thought that the hermit must be an old man with white hair and fairy bones, but after the guide took me to meet the hermit, I was surprised to realize that the hermit looked like he was in his forties, and he looked very ordinary, the kind that would not leave an impression after reading it.

The hermit basically didn't ask me any questions, but only symbolically checked the pulse, and then said with a long sigh: "It seems that your disease cannot be cured, in fact, you have to think about it, and it is not a big deal if you don't have children and grandchildren, just like me, don't you also live well?" Your family has a lot of money, go back and enjoy it, don't think about curing the disease, I don't think I can cure you here, and I will definitely not be able to cure you elsewhere.

After hearing the hermit's words, I almost fainted, and my last hope was on this hermit's body, but what I didn't expect was that he actually told me that I was cured, and I seemed to have been poured a plate of cold water on my head, and I suddenly lost all my thoughts, and I didn't want to live anymore.

The hermit, perhaps seeing my pale face and utter despair, sighed softly and said, "Actually, there is only one way to cure your illness, but this is really .......

As soon as the hermit said this, my soul seemed to come back soon, and I said with great excitement: "Sir, tell me quickly, what is the way, as long as I can pass on the ancestry, I am not even afraid of death."

The hermit nodded slightly, and did not speak immediately, but exchanged glances with the guide, and then slowly said to me: If you want to cure your illness, you must raise something.

I originally thought that I would have to pay a strict price, but I didn't expect that the hermit only wanted me to raise something, so I breathed a sigh of relief and said: I thought what was going to happen, what is so rare to raise a thing, sir, you just say, what do you want to raise?

The hermit paused slightly, and after a little thought, he said: It is a very strange and very scary thing, and many timid people will faint with fear when they see this thing, but when I took the pulse just now, I tried your meridians, and I felt that your meridians were very yang, and it should be a very bold person, but even so, you may not be able to accept it, so I think it's better to forget it.

Of course I would not give up, and at my repeated requests, the hermit nodded at last, and after a few high-fives, out of the dimly lit room came a child, who was not tall, about the size of a stool, but for some reason, the child was a bit like a monkey, he was half-walking and half-crawling, and he had a foul fishy smell on him.

The light in the room was a little dim, but I thought that the child was unkempt and dirty, and when he walked towards us, he made a peculiar roar from his mouth, which made me feel creepy to listen to, and the child was not too close to us, but stopped two or three meters away from us, and I couldn't see his appearance clearly.

The hermit pointed to the child and said, "This is what you are going to raise."

I wondered if raising this child would cure me. This can't be that the hermit is joking with me, look at the hermit's stern face, and I don't feel like it, in view of the hermit's prestige in the treatment of infertility, I also have to believe him, so I nodded and said very resolutely: No problem, I will take him away and raise him.

Unexpectedly, the hermit waved his hand and said, "Don't make a decision so early, wait until you see it clearly."

With that, he beckoned to the child, who howled, and then walked up to us, and then I could see what the child was, and where it was, it was only an ugly dwarf.

This dwarf is really ugly, his facial features are almost crowded together, and there is almost no bridge of the nose, the nostrils seem to have two holes directly poked in the face, and the eye sockets are deep, the eyebrows are high, and the wrinkles on the face are piled up, and he is an old monkey, but he has no hair, and it looks disgusting and terrifying.

But then, something even more terrible happened, and the hermit clapped his hands, and the dwarf turned around, and when he turned completely, I saw what he was looking like behind him, and I couldn't help screaming in fright, and I fell from my chair to the ground, and my head buzzed for a full minute or two, and I lost consciousness completely.

Because I saw the most terrifying scene - behind the dwarf's head, there was a face, that is, the dwarf was a two-faced man!

When I sobered up a little, I felt that I was already soaking wet, and I knew that this was when I was extremely frightened, and I had already broken out in a cold sweat in an instant.

Seriously, I didn't want to take this strange thing home, but I thought that if I brought it back, my illness might be cured, and I would have children, which was my greatest wish, and it was more important to me than my life.

Thinking of this, as soon as I got my heart right, I decided to take this monster back to raise it.

The guide and the hermit helped me get a loose garment and put it on the monster so that no one would notice its weirdness. After that, we also went down the mountain. Later, the guide sent the monster to my house, and I made a small courtyard for it, into which no one could enter except one of my old servants.

That's it, and since then, I've had one such monster in my house.

But for some reason, the hermit was right, and soon after I returned, my wife became pregnant, and it was only after I became pregnant in October that my son was born that I felt that there was hope in life. As the old man was talking, there was a thud in the box, and my eyes stood up. ”
