Chapter 552: Forbidden Land
"The mountains are high and the roads are difficult, and there are usually not many people who go there, so you can cut wood and log wood on the self-kept mountains near your house, and you can only hunt wild game and run out of the mountains to spoil the crops. Master Huang replied.
"So you never go to Sanlichong?" Xie Ke asked rhetorically.
"Yes, it's okay, no one usually goes there. Master Huang replied.
"I'm afraid it's because of the Blood God, right? I heard that there was a Blood God eating people there three hundred years ago?" Huang Ran said as he stared at Master Huang's face.
"Aunt Blood eats people, I haven't heard of it, but there are many wild beasts in the mountains, and there are poisonous snakes and hornets or something, you should really be careful. I advise you to take a look at the pass and not go too far. Master Huang said, started the tractor's engine, and drove the tractor away.
"Is this Master Huang deliberately pretending to be stupid?, how could he not know about the Blood God?" Xie Ke asked me.
I turned my head to Zhou Hong and said, "Honghong, what do you think?"
"I haven't felt it yet...... Let's go check it out first. Zhou Hong's expression was a little puzzled, but it was calm.
I said to the people, "Let's go in slowly, and observe as we go." ”
So we crossed the pass between the two pine trees and walked slowly along a path hidden in the thatch.
The trail was just over a foot wide and lined with thatch, shrubs, and trees, and we had to be very careful not to trip over them.
In order to guard against snakes and insects, each of us twisted a stick in our hands and knocked on both sides of the road as we went, which is called "beating the grass and startling the snake". Of course, the purpose of scaring the snake is not to scare the snake out, but to drive it away!
We walked more than 100 meters, up a small slope, and then a little downhill before entering a cedar forest. The light in the cedar forest is very dim, and it even gives people the illusion that it is dusk, which is very gloomy and deserted. Such a cedar forest, the timid people generally dare not walk. At this moment, we are walking in the cedar forest, and there are all kinds of night insect chirping sounds in our ears, as if night is coming - in fact, this environment is no different from night, so it is regarded as night by night insects, and their chirping is particularly palpitating!
What's even more terrifying is that there are one or two owl chirping sounds in the forest from time to time, and the cry of "coo, coo" makes people's hearts hairy. Of course, Zhou Hong and I had nothing, but Huang Ranran and Gao Weizhen were already trembling with nervousness. Xie Ke and Liu Ting were a little better, but Xie Ke was also very nervous, holding Liu Ting's hand tightly, and said in his mouth: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be afraid......"
Liu Ting was so hurt by him that she couldn't help but sneer: "Monkey, can't you loosen your ......grip?"
It was easy to get out of this cedar forest and into a sunny open field, which was on a ridge, full of bare rocks, with little vegetation, and you could vaguely see the sheep intestine trail running down the ridge to the valley below. The ridges are full of small, nameless flowers, and the low shrubs do not have clusters of bright red fruits. I grew up in the mountains, so I naturally know what those wild fruits are. Like an abacus are sour dates, clusters are densely knotted with firewood pulp, as well as sour soup, wild grapes, etc.
I hurriedly said to everyone, "Those wild fruits are all edible, everyone collect more, this is today's lunch!"
Huang Ranran, Xie Ke and the others were naturally in high spirits, desperately picking those wild fruits, stuffing their pockets all over them, and at the same time not forgetting to stuff them into their mouths, eating until their bellies were swollen. Several girls were also very excited, probably never so hilarious.
Zhou Hong and I also picked a lot, Zhou Hong is careful in the end, every time she picks a kind of unknown when she always asks me, can you eat it? After getting my affirmative answer, she will put it in a small plastic bag, and put one in her mouth, and at the same time don't forget to stuff one into me, and then the two of us look at each other happily, and then smile heartily......
"Oops, Huang ran down the hill!" At this moment, Gao Weizhen suddenly let out an exclamation.
"Why did Huang Ranran fall down the hill?" I hurriedly pulled Zhou Hong over, and Xie Ke and Liu Ting also rushed over. I saw Gao Weizhen standing on the edge of the hillside, looking down at the hillside, and was at a loss.
This hillside is more than 60 degrees, not only steep, but also full of dense green grass, and you can't see the scene below from above. You can only see that Artemisia annua has been rolled out of a wheel, proving that something has indeed rolled down from here.
Gao Weizhen pointed to a broken firewood tree growing on the side of the hill and said: "He saw that there was a lot of fruit on this tree, so he wanted to pick it, I told him not to pick it, for fear of falling, he didn't listen, he wanted to do it, and even people with fruit branches fell down......
"Haha, this is called not dying if you don't die!" Xie Ke, who has always been unsmiling, sneered. Liu Ting also laughed and hurt her stomach, and she kept rubbing it.
"Die-run, die-run!" I tried to laugh but held back, and I shouted "Die-run" as I jumped down the hill to find him.
"But you slow down!" Zhou Hong reminded me with concern in the back.
I gestured to her that it was okay, and the person had already jumped more than ten meters down to the relatively flat place below the hillside.
The first thing that caught my eye was a row of mounds, judging from the messy grass on the mound and the compactness of the soil, it should be some age, and it was definitely not newly buried.
And Huang Ranran was lying in the grass nest between the two graves, eating the wild fruit in his hands.
I walked over and shouted, "Run and run, and you can still eat it when you fall down here?"
Huang Ran ran smiled and said: "The grass is thick here, it is very comfortable to lie down, and the sun can't shine, this fruit is picked by me with hard work, of course, it can't be wasted." ”
"Dead run, where do you see you are lying and are you comfortable?" Xie Ke also jumped down and sneered.
After Huang ran and shook his granite head and looked around, his face suddenly changed: "Mom, why did I lie down in the ghost nest?" hurriedly threw away the wild fruit in his hand, and got up from the grave with a fart and urine.
"This is supposed to be an old, abandoned cemetery, and these graves are supposed to be ownerless graves, and no one has ever come to sweep the graves. It seems that this Sanli Chong is really inaccessible. Zhou Hong and the others also walked down the road, and Zhou Hong looked at these tombs and said.
"Could it be that there are really some taboo things here, so that the villagers don't even dare to come and sweep the tomb?" Xie Ke said with palpitations.
