Chapter 107: Tanhua House
Hearing Liu Shan say this, I also felt some interest in my heart, and the Taoist priest also made me feel a little weird, so I didn't refute it anymore.
And if Liu Shan doesn't leave, I can't leave either, and I have to rely on his iron pimple to take me to Burial Dragon Village.
Then Liu Shan and I walked around the village, and I noticed that almost every family was talking about going up the mountain to find their treasures, but they were all worried about whether something would happen.
Obviously, even though that person and that Taoist priest said those words, they were still skeptical.
Maybe it was because we were strange faces, and someone found us after walking around the village for a while.
It was an old man who looked to be in his sixties and seventies.
He said he was the village chief here.
Let me call him Xu Bo.
After knowing the purpose of our visit, he agreed to take us to his house to rest, and I learned the name of the village from him.
Tanhua Village.
It is said that this village once produced a tanhua, so it was given such a name.
And the old house on the mountain that the middle-aged man said was built on the mountain after returning to his hometown.
It's just that after that Tanhua died, the old mansion has been empty there.
Soon we went to his house with Uncle Xu, who was deserted and alone.
But what makes me feel a little strange is that Xu Bo is alone in the house, but everything looks like he is double, and there are some clothes that are obviously not suitable for him to wear.
I asked, "Uncle Xu, what about the rest of your family?" ”
Xu Bo sighed and said, "Two days ago, my wife didn't listen to persuasion, so she secretly went up the mountain, and she hasn't come back yet. ”
When Liu Shan heard this, he hurriedly asked, "Looking for a baby?" ”
Xu Bo nodded slightly.
"It's said to be looking for a baby, but who knows if it's or not?"
"It's been so many days, and there's no letter."
"The one who came to collect the baby just now found a Taoist master and said that my wife had found the baby and ran away."
Speaking of this, Xu Bo shook his head and said, "My wife is almost seventy years old, and her legs and feet are not good, where can she run?" ”
I thought for a moment and asked, "Then do you think something happened to your wife?" ”
When Xu Bo heard me say this, his face changed suddenly, and then he closed the door before saying, "The big guys actually know everything." ”
"There's weirdness on that mountain."
"In the early years, people in our village used to go up often, but there were always some strange things, and then no one wanted to go up again."
"Until some time ago, that Boss Zhang came, saying that there was a treasure in the old house, and he paid a lot of money, and the big guys all moved their minds."
"Who knows, there are more than a dozen people who have gone in a row, but none of them have come back until now."
I was a little puzzled and said, "Since you think it's weird, why don't you stop them?" ”
Xu Bo sighed: "How can it be so easy." ”
"After our village, as soon as the big guy came to the end, he planted some crops to make some money, and Boss Zhang took out a thousand yuan in one go, which is almost everyone's income for half a year."
"Didn't my wife go too?"
"If it weren't for the fact that those people didn't come back, everyone would have been scared in the past two days, and there would have been more people who went."
Liu Shan was a little incomprehensible and said, "Aren't you the village chief?" ”
"Wouldn't it be better to get rid of that Boss Zhang?"
Xu Bo shook his head.
"The big guys want to make that money, although they are afraid, they still think about it, and they think."
"Aren't there two old guys who can't hold their breath just now and want to try their luck? If it happens, it's a thousand dollars of income. ”
Liu Shan was a little speechless and said, "Aren't you afraid of anything happening again?" ”
"You believe your wife ran away?"
Xu Bo was silent for a while and said, "Let's take a look again." ”
Liu Shan still wanted to speak, so I pulled him.
I have already seen that Xu Bo actually wants to earn the thousand yuan in his heart, and now he is waiting for the situation of the two people who are going up the mountain tonight.
I thought for a moment and said, "Hearing you say that, we'd like to go up and have a look." ”
"But I heard that boss Zhang say that if you want to go up the mountain, you have to be from your village, or you need to get your consent."
"Look ......"
Xu Bo waved his hand and refused: "Now the big guys are counting on making some money, and if it's really okay tomorrow, the big guys will want to go up." ”
When Liu Shan heard this, he hurriedly said, "We know." ”
"But we don't want to make that money, we just want to go up and have a look."
"If you really get any treasure, we will give you all the money we get."
"What do you think?"
Liu Shan added: "We just want to go and see the old mansion and see what kind of treasures can make that Boss Zhang spend so much money." ”
Hearing Liu Shan say this, Xu Bo was obviously a little moved.
But after thinking about it for a while, he still didn't agree directly, and said, "Let's take a look tomorrow." ”
"Then let's talk about it tomorrow." Liu Shan glanced at me, then nodded.
Seeing this, Xu Bo seemed to have no idea of talking to us anymore, pointed to an empty room and said, "I am humble here, you can squeeze in it tonight." ”
After speaking, Xu Bo went back to his room.
After Liu Shan and I glanced at each other, we also returned to the room vacated by Uncle Xu, and after closing the door, Liu Shan asked me in a low voice, "Why do you suddenly want to go up?" ”、
I thought for a moment and said, "It's just curiosity." ”
Liu Shan looked unbelieving and said, "Listening to what Uncle Xu said, there should indeed be something strange in that old mansion." ”
"It seems that what Daochang Li said is not wrong."
Li Bowen again?
I asked, "What else did he say?" ”
Liu Shan seemed to realize that he had leaked his mouth, and said with some embarrassment: "It's nothing." ”
"It's just that Daochang Li said, on the way to Burial Dragon Village with you, no matter where you stop, something will happen."
"That's why he said, let me explain that you can help if you encounter something."
"No, as soon as you come here, you really have trouble?"
"But ......"
Liu Shan was a little worried: "Looking at this posture, if there is really something wrong with this, it doesn't seem to be a good thing." ”
"Can you really handle it?"
I shook my head and said, "I don't know." ”
"But didn't you say that Daoist Li said, except for the Burial Dragon Village, I can solve all the things I encounter on the road."
Hearing this, Liu Shan nodded.
"Yes."
"Then I'm not worried."
"After all, you can even handle zombies."
"It's not too early, I've been driving for a day, so I'll rest first." Liu Shan said and lay down directly on the bed, "If you are hungry, eat some dry food." ”
"Okay." I nodded, and sat aside, but my mind was thinking.
Li Bowen, what else do you know?
