I laughed in my heart, and said that if you want to have a way to get rich, will you still mess with me? But the other party is an old man, and I am still very respectful, showing a deaf look. The bearded man pointed to the ravine on the other side and said, "There is a treasure in that place, which I saw when I was young." ”

Looking in the direction of his finger, the ravine in the distance was low-lying, steaming and foggy. That ravine, I know, is known locally as the 'wolf's crying ditch'.

The wolf crying ditch was originally not called the wolf crying ditch, but called the 'chaotic bone ditch', and for some reason, there were many bones in the ditch, human bones and animal bones. There are two theories about the origin of these bones, one says that it is a burial pit during the Anti-Japanese War, and the other says that there are mountain demons in that place.

In the early 70s, there was a wolf campaign in China, where wolf skin mattresses could be sold for money to foreigners to pay off debts, and almost all the wolves in Inner Mongolia were wiped out. Wolves are also fought on this side of the Xing'an Mountains, and the local people hunt wolves in groups and teams, picking up shotguns. No matter how fierce the wolf is, it can't be as cruel as the greedy and cruel humans, and it didn't take long for the wolves to be scared.

The hunters were familiar with the habits of wolves, knew where wolves would settle down, knew where wolves would hunt, and set traps and ambushes in those places.

Because the bone ditch is too weird, so the locals never dare to go, those wolves are not much left, and they hide in the bone ditch, the locals dare not fight, so they live a wolf's life.

They have been living in the bone ditch since then, and at night, they howl collectively in a miserable voice, as if indictment of human violent crimes, which sounds both permeable and sad.

Gradually, the chaotic bone ditch was renamed the wolf crying ditch.

To this day, no one has mentioned the strange legend of the Troubled Bone Gully, and the real fearing thing in it is the wolves.

That was six years ago, and in retrospect, my personality was very different from what it is now, and I may have been really influenced by the face of the ghost. Six years ago, when I was still relatively soft-hearted, I saw the bearded man with a sad face, thinking about his grandson's tuition, so I said: "There are wolves in that place, it's too dangerous, the baby you said, is it a wolf?" "If it's a wolf skin, it's really valuable, but I don't like wolf hunting, because wolves are very intelligent and tenacious animals, and they can survive no matter how harsh the environment is, which is very similar to my life experience, so although I also hunted in the mountains in those two years, I never hunted wolves.

The bearded man shook his head and said, "Of course not, I'm not talking about wolves, have you ever heard of bone incense?" ”

I shook my head, my vision was limited at that time, and I had never heard of bone incense. The bearded man explained.

It is said that the bone incense is formed by the condensation of the oil in the human bones, the bone incense is ignited, and the smell of it falls asleep, which can make people have sweet dreams, the dream is real, what they want to come, and it does not hurt the body, according to legend, there were people in ancient times who lit the bone incense, dreamed for a year, but after waking up, they couldn't distinguish between reality and dreams, and finally went crazy.

But even so, bone incense is still hard to find, because this thing is naturally formed, can be met but not sought, and is a treasure loved by dignitaries. The bearded man said that when he was young, he was very bold and wanted to hit the wolf's skin mattress, and once chased a lone wolf to the wolf crying ditch, and saw the bone incense in a white and bony pit, but at that time suddenly out of the wolf pack, scared him away, and had nightmares one after another after going back, so that he did not dare to fight the idea of bone incense again.

In the blink of an eye, our conditions in all aspects are different, with shotguns, there is no shortage of fierce hounds, plus manpower, it should not be difficult to break through the wolf crying ditch. I was soft-hearted at that time, I thought that I could find a bone fragrance and make a fortune, and secondly, I came to see a bearded old man, life was hard, so I wanted to help, a group of people except for beards, are all young people, with the dream of making a fortune hit it off, only the two girls were afraid, so they didn't agree.

On the third day after the rain stopped, the bearded man prepared a shotgun and led three hounds, one of which was a female hound, who had just laid a puppy, and the puppy was played to death by the mischievous village boy. The bitch ** rose ruthlessly, and lost her cubs, very irritable and fierce, standing there, her eyes were fierce, and ordinary people did not dare to approach. With this to help, we have more confidence in our hearts.

On that day, I, the bearded man, and the two young men, one named Manzi, unemployed, and the other called Erhei, also unemployed, were born and raised in the Xing'an Mountains, and what they were good at was hunting.

The ditch is not far away, over a ridge is, afraid of the rumors of the wolf crying ditch, we deliberately chose to enter the ditch during the day. The ditch was different from what I had imagined, there were no white bones all over the ground, and thick leaves were piled up on the ground, which exuded rot for a long time, and it was soft to walk on.

The bearded man led the way in front with his memory, this ditch is north-south, high at the top, narrow at the bottom, like a giant snake coming out of the mountain, at that time I had a cursory look at my grandfather's work notes, in Yang Fang's secret book has been recorded, this shape shì, called 'earth snake Jackie Dragon', the snake's head will always go up, as if to fly into the sky, but this place is strange.

Because according to the direction of the beard, the bone incense is exactly in the position of the snake's head. It is a good omen for a snake to become a dragon, but if the snake head has too many bones, it will inevitably have a strong yin qi, suppressing the dragon qi, making the snake unable to successfully turn into a dragon, thus becoming a fierce snake full of resentment.

At the time, I didn't believe this, although I saw that something was wrong, but I didn't pay attention to it, the only thing I paid attention to was the wolf, and I was worried that a wolf would come out.

In broad daylight, although the ditch was cold and foggy, the sky was transparent, and everyone did not feel afraid, and the three big dogs were also in good spirits. The further you go, the narrower the ravine becomes, because this snake head is triangular.

Suddenly, Rhubarb, who had been calm, suddenly became restless, his feet kept moving, and his nose sniffed on the ground from time to time. Rhubarb is the female dog who is still in the nursing period, calm and fierce, it is suddenly like this, let us be vigilant, on the other hand, the other two dogs, also look restless.

The dog has a very smart nose and can smell the scent of nearby animals, could it be that a wolf or something else is approaching?

Our shotguns were already filled with iron sand ammunition, and with the guns in hand, we walked forward vigilantly. At this moment, Rhubarb suddenly rushed forward, and in an instant, he ran into the dense fog and disappeared.

The bearded man stomped his foot anxiously and scolded: "This plague dog, I knew I wouldn't bring it here!" ”

I said, "Rhubarb may have found something, let's chase it!" Everyone chased out a hundred meters, and suddenly saw a strange scene. Rhubarb stood on a dirt slope beside the ravine, a gray thing under its belly, as if it were feeding its milk.

I was probably startled, took a closer look, and exclaimed, "It's a wolf cub." I saw that the wolf cub was thin and skinny, gray and gray, very small, it looked less than two months, eagerly smashing the milk, rhubarb turned his head and licked the wolf cub, and the ferocity on his body was much more restrained, but as soon as we approached, rhubarb barked at us.

When the bearded man saw this, he said, "The dog's milk is not eaten by the cubs, and it will swell and ache, and this pestilence dog has fed the wolf cubs." ”

Manzi said: "Look at the hungry skin and bones of this wolf cub, the she-wolf must have an accident." ”

Erhei's eyes were sharp, and he pointed to the side of Rhubarb and said, "Look, there's a wolf hole there, I'll go and take a look." The people in the mountains were bold, Erhei leaned over to take a look, and immediately choked on his nose and said: "Oh mom, it's old and smelly, there are a few rotten dead wolf cubs in it, and eighty percent of them are starving to death." ”

Since Rhubarb refused to let us get closer, everyone had to stop and wait for it to finish feeding, and after a while, the little wolf cub was full, so we shouted at Rhubarb and continued on the road, and the little wolf cub stumbled all the way behind. I felt pitiful, so I put it in my pocket, and I was wearing an outdoor outfit at the time, and the pocket was so big that it just fit in. If I put it aside for now, I'm sure I'll bake it and eat it.

Soon, a big pit appeared in front of us, which should be the one that the bearded man had mentioned. The crowd walked forward excitedly, and when we reached the edge of the pit, we looked down and found that the pit was so deep that there were no bones in it, and it was also full of thick fallen leaves.

The bearded man said, "It's inside, let's dig hard and dig it out." ”

I was keenly aware that something was wrong.

First of all, the bearded man discovered Bone Incense thirty years ago, and according to him, the pit was full of white bones, and Bone Fragrance was exposed. Now that I think about it, this is a bit impossible, because no one has come to the wolf crying ditch, and even thirty years ago, this pit should have been covered with fallen leaves as it is now.

I stood at the edge of the pit with Mitsuko and Erhei, and when I thought of this, I felt strange, and I couldn't help but turn to look at the beard, and when I turned my head, I suddenly met a half-rotten face, which was still sticky to the beard, looking at us with a strange smile, and his hands were stretched out towards me.

At that time, I experienced that kind of scene, my legs were weak with fright, and I subconsciously hit people with a shotgun, and one shot hit the head of the person, knocking the person to the ground. I was frightened, and before I came back to my senses, I felt a gust of cold wind behind me, and I was frightened at that time, and I immediately turned back in fear, but I saw that the barbarian and Erhei fell into the pit at some point, and in that pit, there were countless rotten people coming out of the leaves of ** and eating the two, for a while, my ears were full of screams of the two, not to mention how scary.

In an instant, the bearded man got up from the ground, his rotten face smirked, and he raised his shotgun at me, I was born with a ruthless spirit, and when I saw that the other party was going to shoot me, the fear in my heart subsided a little, and my blood was stimulated, and I thought: No matter whether you are a human or a ghost, I can't let you kill me.
