65. Strange Tree

Mu Laohan said: "Hey! I don't know if it's a doll, you're here, who are these? ”

After some introduction, Old Man Mu nodded and invited us into the house, and I said, "Grandpa Mu, why do you refuse to open for business?" ”

Mu Laohan's expression was a little complicated, he sighed and said: "If you have money, you don't want to hold it, you haven't seen that everyone in this village has banned guests, and we have no way." ”

I wondered, "Why?" ”

The tour guide also said: "Yes, old man, why, I plan to come here to have a good time?" ”

Mu Laohan said: "It's absolutely not okay these days, baby, you live here for a few days to eat and drink, whether you give money or not, our own family, don't care, but don't go out to wander, ...... at night" said Here the old man looked left and right, and said: "Just like this time, don't go out." ”

I was confused by him and said: "Grandpa Mu, what the hell is going on, you told me clearly, everyone is not an outsider, right, we juniors can still laugh at you." ”

Mu Laohan thought for a long time, but he still clapped his hands and said: "I can't talk about this matter, you can see it yourself tomorrow morning, it is the willow tree at the west entrance of the village, hey!" It's not early, I'll go back first. Then I went out of the house, and noticed that he was carrying a peachwood stick in his hand.

Mu Laohan is in good health, coming and going strides meteors, no need to rely on this thing to walk, it seems to be used to ward off evil spirits, I didn't expect to encounter strange things when I came here, the tour guide said: "You must listen to Mu Laohan's words, he is a local know-it-all." ”

Then he sat cross-legged on the wooden floor and said, "We have to rest our legs when we just arrived, so let me tell you a legend that has been passed down in the local area." ”

After that, he took a sip and said: "I have been to Hulu Valley for a long time, I dare not say that I know the customs and customs here, at least in the folk customs and folk customs are still understood, the patriarch of this village is surnamed He, in fact, Mu Laohan's father is also surnamed He, but he follows his mother's surname, the Miao people in the village are said to be Han people, and they all have the same surname, an ancient legend that has been circulated in this village has been passed down from generation to generation by word of mouth, and this legend is also our biggest talk after tea and dinner in the company, because of its mystery. ”

"It is said that the ancestor of the surname He was still a farmer in the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, the authentic Han people, one day into the mountains to chop firewood somehow met a fairy, at that time the immortal was swallowing clouds and spitting fog to practice the immortal law, "He ancestor" that dared to disturb, frightened to hide in the stone crack and peed his pants, and then I don't know whether the fairy asked the taste, or He ancestor made another sound, in short, it alarmed the fairy, unexpectedly the fairy was not bold, suddenly disappeared, Mortals finally saw that a fairy would naturally not leave so easily, so He Xianzu spared a circle around the place where the immortal meditated, in order to get some immortal energy, not to mention prolonging life, at least transfer, and it turned out to be something good. ”

"At that time, He Xianzu saw an artifact similar to a jade plate, and he was excited and planned to take it back, but he didn't expect that as soon as his hand touched the jade plate, he only heard a stabbing sound, and the place touched by his hand immediately turned into a cloud of green smoke and disappeared."

"In the end, it is something in the sky, the anti-theft performance is really first-class, but He Ancestor also has his way, he took two branches as chopsticks, and clamped the jade plate back, after careful observation at home, he found that there were words on the jade card, He Ancestor's ancestor was a showman, so he was literate, and at the moment according to the words on the jade plate one by one poured onto the paper, and it turned out that it was actually a secretary of the immortal, of course, the damaged place was not able to repair it back, and He Ancestor did not have the ability to make it up himself, However, just the ones on hand were enough for him to be excited for a long time, so he began to cultivate, and the things of the immortals naturally would not be fake, and He Ancestor became more and more powerful. ”

He ancestor is a very advanced ancient figure, he always thinks that everyone is really good, so he created a "Xuanyue Gate", leading the men, women and children in the village to practice together, which is the number of his nephew He Tian has the highest talent, so the two of them progress together, it is really happy, the result is that everyone thinks that the merit is complete, to be the day of the gods is just around the corner, and the disaster will come. ”

"It was a little old man who came to kick the hall, he told the local Xuanyuemen disciples that he consciously came out to die, a few young men were anxious at the time, and scolded him, the old man didn't say anything, smiled and left, but the next day people found that all the scolding people died in their own homes, the cause of death was the same, below the nose, above the neck was all gone, which can arouse huge public anger, the people of Xuanyuemen planned to find this old man, shoot him alive, but not even a single hair, On the contrary, the disciples of Xuanyuemen died one after another, but the only one who did not die was also mentally abnormal, always saying: "cat, cat, cat......" but couldn't say a whole sentence. ”

"He Ancestor was forced to be in a hurry, there was no way but to find this old man through various doorways, the old man told them that because this practice of the immortal law is a violation, so they must bear the legal consequences, not to mention that everyone is sentenced to death, but the leading few want to kill, He Ancestor is also a powerful person, and he feels that it is better to fight than to wait for death, so he took a few brothers to prepare to beat the old man, but it is a pity that they are all wiped out, and the people of the He clan are also implicated because of this matter, and they will encounter it once every few yearsThe "big exam", the consequences of failing the exam are very serious, that is, death, and as a result, all the He clan, who were forced to helpless, moved here, sought the protection of top wizards, and finally survived. ”

A tourist asked the tour guide with relish: "Xiao Luo, what you said should just be a local means to attract tourists, I think the Loch Ness Monster is a means of attracting tourists by the local government in the UK." ”

The tour guide said: "I can't talk nonsense about this, because I believe in this, but I can't force my own tourists to think the same as me." ”

These things that the tour guide said in the ears of outsiders will naturally be thought to be myths and legends, but for me it is simply too unexpected, I can not find all kinds of Xuanyue Gate, actually just this tour guide of the tour company as a, it seems that "the master in the folk" is really not nonsense.

In the evening we washed up and went to bed, and the next morning, we got up early, and went to the place where the old man Mu said, where there were already many people, and when I saw all this, I was immediately shocked, and if I had heard it, I would not have believed that there could be such a strange scene in the world: I saw that the thick and unusual trunk of an old willow tree that grew here actually appeared with facial features.

The protruding parts are clearly recognizable to the eyebrows, eyes, nose, and mouth, and they are the natural uplift of the bark, and there are traces that can never be carved by artificially.

There was no sound at all at the scene, everyone's expressions were tense, and it was estimated that this was the case when the devil entered the village.

Ni Jiming said softly: "What's going on?" ”

I shook my head and signaled that I didn't know, but I heard a young man say loudly, "Why don't you call the police?" ”

A grade was a little longer and said: "Junzi, don't talk nonsense, wait for the old patriarch to come." ”

Not long after, a man in a wheelchair was pushed over, and on the wheelchair was an old man with gray hair, who looked to be eighty or ninety years old, and everyone saw him hurriedly give way, and the tour guide said to us: "He is the patriarch of the locals, and enjoys high prestige in his own clan. ”

I secretly sighed and said secretly: That's because you're not with me.

I saw that the old patriarch arrived in front of the willow tree, looked at it for a long time and then sighed and said: "It seems that this retribution is going to continue endlessly, creating evil, creating evil." ”

A young man beside him said, "Grandpa, do you mean retribution ......?"

The old man nodded and said, "Needless to say, I don't want to involve more and more people." After that, he turned his head to the tour guide and said, "Luo Yanzi, I didn't expect you to pick this time, there is no way, I have wronged you to stay here for a few days these days." ”
