Chapter 203: The Lost Forest

Some said, "There is a young and beautiful girl in the forest, and if you meet her by chance, you can take her out and marry her." Some young men went away, but they all went and never returned.

Some say that the young man died inside, and some say that he was recruited as an old son-in-law - married to the girl.

Due to the different accounts, there are still young men who are often obsessed with ghosts to go on adventures. Some said that they had heard the heart-rending cries and calls of family members on the edge of the lost forest, which added to the horror of the lost forest.

It is said that a long time ago, there was a bandit leader who did not believe in evil and gathered a few of his subordinates, and promised to give a large amount of money when he came out, and went in with knives, forks, swords, and halberds in full armor, but after entering, there was no news of them.

People from nearby villages have also tried this forest. It is said that "the old horse knows the way", and there is an old man in the village who marked an old horse and drove it into the maze with a whip, hoping that it could find a way out of the maze.

But after waiting for a long time, the old horse did not return. No one had ever seen the marked old horse since.

As a result, the Lost Forest became a forbidden place. In people's minds, it is a sacred and terrifying place. Generations of old people in nearby villages have told the next generation: Don't go into this wood, you will die if you go!

"I've heard that none of the people who walked into this maze came out." Shi Dacheng said in astonishment.

The white-haired old man smiled: "You can't generalize everything!" You have a stone whip in your hand, and if you encounter difficulties, you can ask for advice from the stone whip.

"Also, there is such a family living in the woods, and everyone knows a lot of mysteries. There is also a young and beautiful girl who has been spelled inside, surnamed Yang, called Yiyi, and there is no in-law family to this day. As long as you have the courage and courage to win the girl's heart, you may be able to achieve a beautiful marriage.

"With the help of the girl, and the stone whip in your hand, can't you get the stone out!

"One more thing to tell you: this whip will fail after you have used it, but you must not throw it away. And if a man wants to buy you, don't ask for his money, but with your mouth you give it, but you don't bring out your whip.

"If he wants to say barter, you say yes and give him the whip, and the second thing is what you really enjoy."

After the white-haired old man finished speaking, he put the whip in front of Shi Dacheng, and then flew into the sky and floated away on the white clouds.

Shi Dacheng was very excited, and was about to bow down to the old man who was drifting away, when he turned over and woke up suddenly, only to realize that it was a dream.

This dream is too vivid and useful, if it can become a reality, the problem of water leakage in the reservoir will be solved!

He looked around with his eyes wide open, hoping to see the traces of the white-haired old man and make his dream come true.

Suddenly, he found that there was indeed a whip beside him, exactly like the stone whip given by the white-haired old man in his dream.

Shi Dacheng jumped up happily, picked up the whip, put on his shovel, and ran in the direction of the old man said about the lost forest.

Thirty miles away, Shi Dacheng took the pace and arrived in less than an hour.

The forest is more than ten miles in circumference, with towering trees, shrubs and thorns, no footprints at the edge of the forest or inside, not even the hoof prints of wild beasts can not be seen, let alone the path!

Shi Dacheng had a stone whip in his hand, a stone with a diameter of three meters and a beautiful girl as a lure, and without thinking about it, he walked towards the forest alone.

Strange to say, from the outside, the ground is full of thorns, and there is no place to stay, but it is not difficult to walk at all.

Knowing that this is the effect of the stone whip, the white-haired old man in the dream is a fairy, and since he let him come, there must be hope for success. Shi Dacheng thought in his heart, and he was even more confident.

Shi Dacheng stepped on the thorns and walked forward, and after a short time, he saw several houses not far away. They are all blue brick and large tile houses, which are very magnificent.

It seems that what the white-haired old man said is true, there are indeed people living here. According to the old man, if there really was a young and beautiful girl who had been cast a spell here, and she had obtained both a stone and a beautiful woman, wouldn't it be a beautiful thing that fell from the sky!

Shi Dacheng was thinking to himself, and suddenly there were three paths in front of him, all of which were bright, and it seemed that there were often people walking around on them.

Which of the three paths should be taken? Shi Dacheng was at a loss when he saw a girl carrying a bucket coming towards him.

I saw that the girl's black hair like silk satin fluttered gently, and her smiling face like a flower was holy and beautiful. Willow eyebrows, red phoenix eyes, cherry mouths, the face of a melon seed is incomparable;

The skin is fair and tender, the body is moderately fat and thin, increasing one point to show fat, minus one point to show thinness, and the posture is more extraordinary. Gently moving the lotus step, the ring on the body jingled.

Shi Dacheng's eyes were fixed on the girl, and his blood boiled all over his body, and he only doubted whether he had reached the realm of immortals.

The girl seemed to ignore Shi Dacheng's existence. Go straight to the well platform by the side of the road and draw water from the well. Every time I mentioned the well rope, the ring on my body clanged.

Shi Dacheng was distressed when he saw it, and said secretly: Such a beauty should have painted red embroidery in the house, how to do this coolie work?

Thinking so, he walked up and said, "Sister, can you let me help you bring up the water?" ”

The girl was startled when she heard this, her hand shook, and the bucket that had been mentioned at the mouth of the well fell down again with a "plop".

Shi Dacheng saw that he had recklessly crashed into trouble, regretted not falling, and hurriedly apologized and said: "I'm sorry for disturbing the eldest sister, the kid apologized for this." ”

The girl pursed her lips and smiled, and instead of looking at Shi Dacheng, she said to herself: "Ruined my paper cut!" ”

As he spoke, he reached out and took out a piece of white paper and a small pair of scissors from his waist, cut out a small paper bucket in an instant, blew on it, and in the blink of an eye, the small paper bucket turned into a large purple wooden bucket.

The girl tied the well rope to the wooden bucket, fetched water, and carried it away.

Shi Dacheng was stunned.

When the girl had gone away, he suddenly remembered his confusion. I thought: I finally waited for someone, and I was such a beautiful girl, why didn't I ask her for directions first and ask her what her name was? In case she was Yang Yiyi, wouldn't she miss it in person!

After remorse, I thought: Since she walked from this road, it means that this road can lead to her home, and I will also walk from this road, if I can catch up with her, I must ask her face to face.

Shi Dacheng thought about it and ran a few steps forward, wanting to catch up and ask.

But whether he walked fast or slowly, he was always so far away. The girl carried the load of water in front of her, flickering and flickering, and walked easily and quickly. No matter how much he chases, he just can't catch up.

When she came to the foot of a large poplar tree, the girl went into a gate.

Shi Dacheng chased to the gate and saw that the gate was closed. I was about to knock on the door, and I thought again: Men and women don't kiss each other, they don't know each other, how can they be reckless and disturb others?!

Shi Dacheng had to stand outside the door.

At this time, the sun is already in the west, if you can't ask the way, you go to the fork, I don't know what the scene is ahead.

Shi Dacheng was in a dilemma, when he saw a black line, a red line and a white line floating out of the wind under the gate.

Shi Dacheng didn't know what these three lines meant, but he was afraid that they would be blown away by the wind, so he had to step forward and pick them up and hold them in his hands. I want to return it to someone if they look for it.

After waiting for a long time, there was still no movement inside the door.

It's not a way to keep waiting like this?!

Shi Dacheng was in a hurry, and suddenly remembered the stone whip in his hand.

The white-haired old man once said that when encountering difficulties, he could ask for advice from the stone whip. Then he said to the stone whip in his hand: "Stone whip, stone whip, what should I do?" ”

As if he understood Shi Dacheng's words, he shook it and said in a thick baritone:

"Connect the thread in your hand in the order of white, red, and black, and wrap it well, and when the grasshopper eye is a child, you tie the black head of this thread to any poplar tree, and throw the ball of thread into the distance, and you follow the thread all the way in."

Shi Dacheng: "Excuse me, what is the name of the girl who carries the water?" It's good to call when you meet. ”

"Yang Yiyi." After the stone whip was finished, he was motionless in his hand again.

"Yang Yiyi!" Isn't this exactly the name of the white-haired old man in the dream! It seems to be this girl.

Shi Dacheng was happy in his heart and did what he said. Put the shovel and the whip on the ground, and tie the three threads together in order.

It's strange to say that the originally short three lines, after being connected, are entangled and entangled, and they can't be finished. In the end, a big ball was wound.

When it was dark, Shi Dacheng tied the black line of the string ball to a poplar tree according to what the stone whip said, and then threw the thread ball into the distance, and he walked along the line.

The line led to the dense woods, and Shi Dacheng suddenly felt that the sky was dark, and the visibility was no more than a meter. Shi Dacheng had walked such a night road, and he was still alone, and he was a little timid in his heart.

But when he thought of the water snake demon in the Mujiazhuang reservoir and the beautiful girl he met on the well, he became bold and walked forward one foot deep and one foot shallow.

As I walked, I suddenly felt a light in my eyes, and when I looked up, a bright moon had risen in the sky.

"In this ghost forest, the moon is like a hide-and-seek!"

Shi Dacheng thought to himself and continued to walk along the line.

As we walked, three huts appeared in front of me, with lights lit in the rooms and the sound of "humming" spinning cotton.

The ball of thread turned a corner and rolled towards the three huts.

Shi Dacheng followed closely.

After the ball of thread rolled into the hut, the string was also cleaned.

Shi Dacheng entered the house and saw that the girl who was carrying water during the day was sitting on the kang spinning cotton.

When the girl saw Shi Dacheng, she hurriedly stopped spinning, stood up, and said happily, "You still found it!" There was a 180-degree turn from the attitude of the day, and it was like two people.

In the joy, Shi Dacheng did not forget to "verify the right body". Hurriedly asked: "May I ask the girl, is your surname Yang, your name is Yiyi?" ”
