Chapter 39: Rumors in the Village, Anecdotes in the Forest
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, everyone stopped and looked back from time to time.
Under the light of the flashlight, everyone's faces were a little frightened.
Fortunately, the animals were clearly not interested in them and did not chase after them.
Zhou Niu and Wang Dazhu gasped, "Village chief, look, we didn't lie to anyone. ”
The village chief nodded, at this time he was out of breath just now, and he couldn't say anything, and it took a long time to react.
The other villagers all had a look of surprise on their faces, "I'm a good girl, what's the matter with those little animals, Ganha gathered there, and it was really infiltrating to watch it most of the night." ”
Although the animals are relatively small, they gather like humans, make moon worships, and finally brush back the scene.
The visual impact caused is still relatively large, and at first glance when I see such a picture, it makes people's scalps tingle, and the uncanny valley effect has reached its peak.
A villager touched his chin, "Could it be that there is something special there?" Or is there something that can't be done? ”
"If you want me to say, these animals are absorbing the essence of the sun and the moon, and they are cultivating, I'm afraid they are not going to become essence."
"This is very reasonable, I used to hear the master say that the feng shui and terrain here are very good."
The village chief frowned slightly, "Don't talk nonsense, what cultivation is fine, it is said that after the founding of the People's Republic of China, animals are not allowed to become essence, what are you doing here." Is there no college student in our village, or is it a drop? ”
He waved his hand, "Okay, it's so late, let's stop discussing it, let's go back to our respective homes." ”
The village chief has spoken, and the villagers are not good at saying anything, muttering a few words and returning home, no matter who has the courage and curiosity, they dare not turn back to see what is going on.
In the early morning of the next day, looking at the big sun in the sky, the Buddha gave the villagers a lot of courage.
Zhou Niu pulled Wang Dazhu and a few villagers last night, and went to yesterday's place together.
"It's daytime now, even if there are really any mountain spirits, it won't dare to make trouble in the blue sky and daylight!"
When they got there, everyone was dumbfounded, and everything was gone, as if nothing had happened.
"It's strange, it was obviously here yesterday, and the location should be right."
Came twice, now it's the third time, it's still in broad daylight, it can't be that they went the wrong way.
Everyone searched everywhere, but they almost turned the ground upside down, and they found nothing, except for a big rock, there was nothing special.
It seems that the animals I saw last night were all hallucinations of theirs.
Zhou Niu and the others clearly knew that so many people had seen it, and it couldn't be an illusion.
"Hey, we ran into those animals worshipping the moon here yesterday, why did they disappear without a trace after a night's work."
The companion beside him couldn't help but roll his eyes, "Look at what you said, that animal hasn't slept all night in the moon, maybe it will sleep in the nest, and it is still waiting for you to come." ”
"Then again, it's pretty ordinary."
The villagers said as they walked down the hill.
Why, there were so many small animals here last night, and several villagers were puzzled.
This incident also spread in the village as if it had grown wings, causing heated discussions among the villagers.
"Hey, have you heard, yesterday Er Niu and Wang Dazhu met a lot of small animals in the mountains to worship the moon and practice together!"
"What do you say? They met the vixen and were taken away by the ecstasy of the soul? No wonder, I look dead today and my eyes are a little blue. ”
"But no, when our men went to look for them, they were stunned and said that they saw some Yaochi immortal gathering, and it turned out that those immortals were all transformed into mountain spirits!"
"Pass it on, there are animals in this mountain that have cultivated into fine miles, hands and eyes reach the sky, many villagers have fallen into the way, this mountain has not been peaceful recently, it is better not to go up the mountain recently."
"What nonsense, what kind of mountain and wild spirits, obviously it is the mountain god master, the mountain god is strange, bless our Longyuan Village with smooth wind and rain, and a bumper harvest in the coming year."
This matter has been spread by ten, ten, and hundreds, and various versions have popped up, and even the next village has heard about it, and those who have come to inquire about it.
But no matter which version it is, it has attracted the attention of many villagers, because so many people have seen it, whether it is the mountain spirit or the mountain god, it is not something they can offend.
The villagers of Longyuan are simple and simple, and the villagers who went into the mountains to see animals worshipping the moon before described them are godly, even if they don't believe it, they are a little in awe in their hearts.
As a result, there are indeed a lot fewer villagers who have recently entered the mountains, and even if there are, they are all in broad daylight.
I'm afraid that I will walk too much at night, and bump into something I shouldn't see like Zhou Niu and Wang Dazhu.
When the time comes, if you run into a yellow skin begging for a seal again, it will be really useless to cry.
"If you want me to say that these are superstitions, I went to see them later, and there was nothing in that place......"
Under the big tree, a few men were shaking their fans to enjoy the shade, discussing what had happened recently when the village chief and others went up the mountain.
Originally, only a few people knew, because a few of them were drunk, and the boasting of adding oil and vinegar there, the more they talked about it, the more exaggerated it became, and there were several later versions.
At this moment, a weak voice came from the corner, "Uncle Zhang, is there really a mountain god on the mountain?" ”
Everyone looked over and saw a little girl looking at them timidly, carrying a basket full of pigweed on her back and pressing it on her thin shoulders.
The clothes on the body are a little ill-fitting, not to mention the white hair that is washed, and there are all kinds of patches, one in the east and one in the west, there is no good place.
Even the sleeves and pants were rolled up, but because the body was too thin, it still looked empty, as if it had stolen adult clothes.
Uncle Zhang was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Hu girl, it's all superstition, and you can't count it." ”
Hearing this, Hu Xiaocao slowly lowered his head, and his eyes gradually became dim.
She is thin and small, because of malnutrition, her hair is as yellow as straw, and her whole body is just her eyes, but now she is like a candle flame that has been blown out, which makes people unbearable to look at.
The companion beside him looked desperately, and Uncle Zhang quickly reacted and coughed a few times, "However, maybe the old man of the mountain god really exists, maybe it can't be said." ”
Hu Xiaocao raised his head suddenly, the light in his eyes came back again, and the corners of his mouth slowly grinned.
"I know Uncle Zhang."
She looked up at the sky and slapped her head suddenly, "Oh, Uncle Zhang won't tell you, I have to rush back, and my mother is still waiting for me to decoct the medicine." ”
looked at Hu Xiaocao's figure walking away.
The hogweed, which was more than half a human tall, barely covered her body, covering the whole person, probably because it was too heavy, and she had to lie up.
The emaciated body carried not only pigweed, but the entire weight of life, all on her shoulders.
Uncle Zhang and the others couldn't help but sigh, "Hu Yatou is also a poor person." ”
The people around him also sighed, "Who said it wasn't." ”
