The owner of the hotel said: "However, after this wild Taoist walked out of the gate of Wei Jiu's house, he did not leave immediately, but went back and forth around Wei Jiu's courtyard many times, and then suddenly left quickly. Wei Jiu knew all this, but he was also a master of art and bold, he didn't take this wild Taoist to heart at all, and of course he was not afraid that he would have any means to retaliate in the future. ”

The doll said: "Then this wild Taoist didn't show his identity, and didn't make it clear his true intention to come here?"

The owner of the hotel said: "This should not be explained, according to Wei Jiu himself afterwards, it is very likely that his peers from other places specially found people from the rivers and lakes came to intimidate him." Because, Wei Jiu's reputation in this industry is too big, and he has already attracted the envy of some narrow-minded peers. You may not have heard that in their industry, they would spontaneously hold a field competition every few years. To put it bluntly, it means that the masters of the industry from all over the country get together and compete in the wild to catch hares. The rules are also very simple, that is, under the same equipment, in a fairly large field environment, in the same amount of time, to see who catches the most hares. ”

The doll said, "I'll go, isn't this just gambling?"

The owner of the hotel said, "Yes, this is actually some gambling in disguise, sometimes the game is quite big, and whoever wins in the end will get a very considerable dividend." Of course, at that time, Wei Jiu took the lead and received dividends for several consecutive sessions, so everyone thought that it had something to do with this matter, so they didn't think much about it elsewhere. ”

At this time, Xiao Qingfeng suddenly interjected and said: "While the old brother hasn't finished telling this story of Wei Jiu, all of you will eat a little more of this fragrant and spicy rabbit meat, I estimate that everyone will not be able to eat it when this story is finished." Come on, come on, hurry up, don't waste it, this is a real good thing to eat herbs, and it is very beneficial to eat it. ”

Saying that, everyone had more clips, and a small-scale spicy hare annihilation battle began. Only meditating, for some reason, I just casually sandwiched some clear cold salad three threads, and I didn't eat a piece of hare meat. After a while, this large pot of spicy hare was wiped out by everyone, and the Mengshan turtle even drank the rest of the soup. After everyone finished eating, they couldn't help but praise the proprietress for her good craftsmanship.

Seeing everyone's unfinished looks, Xiao Qingfeng smiled and said to the hotel owner: "I said brother, I feel that as soon as this wild Taoist appears, it is estimated that Wei Jiu's big trouble will really come." If he could really listen to the wild man at that time, instead of insisting on running all the way to the dark, maybe he would still be living a nourishing life now. ”

The hotel owner said: "Brother Qingfeng, what you said is extremely true, but it's a pity that Wei Jiu was too conceited and arrogant at that time, and he didn't listen to the soft grinding and hard bubbles of that wild Taoist, and continued to do his old job." It is also strange to say that since the wild man left, the wild rabbits near the Yellow Mountain have suddenly become extremely rare.

The doll said: "It can't be that they have been hunted by a master like Wei Jiu all year round, so that these wild rabbits are slowly becoming extinct in this place, right?"

The hotel owner said: "Not really, because Wei Jiu is a very measured person in this business, but he will not kill all of a place." In their jargon, this is called keeping food for yourself, not eating too much in one bite so that you don't have anything to eat later. Therefore, he often takes people to hunt in other places, and does not blindly work in this one place. But since then, not only has the number of hares near Huangshan decreased, but it also seemed that the remaining hares had suddenly become extremely difficult to deal with. Even Wei Jiu missed several times in a row, and the other people around him who were doing this business were even worse, and sometimes they couldn't even see a hare hair for seven or eight days in a row. Sometimes I saw it, but I couldn't catch it, and even some bizarre and strange things happened one after another. was a veteran in the industry, and he was caught by himself and inexplicably cut off a few toes. Then there appeared a sophisticated dog, which, while chasing the hare normally, suddenly fell to the ground and died suddenly for no apparent reason. ”

The doll said, "Is this really evil?"

The owner of the hotel said: "This is nothing, and there are even rumors that in the middle of the night, on the top of the Yellow Mountain, I once saw a huge hare standing half-upright, screaming sadly at the full moon in the sky. For a while, rumors spread in the entire playing circle, everyone was in danger, and everyone stopped doing it one after another. Most of them think that the big hare with the Mochizuki Sorrow is very likely to be like the king scorpion in Hongshigou in the early years, or like the pure white wild badger that the bald-tailed Lao Li once caught, and it should also be a difficult creature that has already had a certain Taoism. So many people were so frightened that they hid and didn't go out to play, and some even went directly to work in other places to hide and didn't dare to show up. ”

The doll said: "Then Wei Jiu, does he also believe these rumors, is he just like them?"

The owner of the hotel said: "If he is like everyone else, it will be fine, and naturally there will be no bizarre changes later." When he saw that everyone was so timid and afraid, he couldn't help but arouse his stubborn and arrogant personality, but he didn't believe in this evil, and went out to hunt alone every night. Later, even his daughter-in-law angrily took the child back to her parents' house and left him alone at home. One day almost half a month later, in the early morning, Wei Jiu called his friends to hurry to his house, saying that there was something important to announce to everyone. And he also stressed that these people at home must also be present, otherwise they will break off their friendship from now on. After receiving his call, everyone knew that he must have caught the big hare with the sad name of Mochizuki, and they all came to his home with the principle of only watching the excitement and never stretching out their hands. ”

After a slight pause, the innkeeper continued: "Sure enough, when everyone arrived at his house, they saw a very large hare hanging in the middle of the courtyard. Most of us are veterans in the circle, but no one has ever added such a big hare. At first glance, it looks almost a meter long, and it is estimated to weigh more than ten catties. I heard that he also sent someone to invite that Lao Li at that time, but it was Lao Li, who was already sick, that he didn't say anything, and said that his body had been strong recently, and in the end, Wei Jiu didn't send someone to invite him. ”

Laughing Maitreya said: "My God, such a big hare, I have been a cook for so many years, and I have never seen such a big one as you said." The one I saw was generally four or five pounds, five or six pounds, and that was considered a big one, and he wouldn't have gotten an artificial breeder from somewhere. Besides, it's impossible, just how poisonous their eyes are, not to mention wild and farmed, even when they run on the ground, they can see the male and female and the year at a glance. ”

The owner of the hotel said: "It's absolutely true, to be honest, I also went to see the excitement that day, and it was really real." Not to mention that you don't dare to believe it now, even those of us at the time could hardly believe our eyes. At that time, a few elderly people stood up to speak, suggesting that Wei Jiu quickly let it go, and not hurt its life, so as not to get into trouble. But Wei Jiu didn't know what was wrong that day, and he was unusual, completely ignoring the painstaking persuasion of these old men, and insisted on killing this hare. He also showed the people the wounds he had suffered on his arms and thighs for catching the hare, and he was so ruthless that he had to make it pay the price. And it is necessary to get its skin right, fill it with filler and make it into a specimen, which will be kept as a memorial forever. In the end, everyone saw that they couldn't stop him, and some of the older and timid ones made excuses to leave, and only five or six brave young people remained there to watch the excitement. ”

The doll said, "I said, brother, did you leave or stay that day?"

The owner of the hotel smiled a little shyly and said, "Don't hide it, I really didn't dare to stay at that time, and I slipped away with the excuse, hehehe......"

The doll said, "Then later, what happened?"

The owner of the hotel said: "Later, Wei Jiu really killed the big hare on the spot and stewed it directly, and afterwards he really treated the hare skin with special medicine and made it into a specimen." Later, I heard from the people present that after the big hare was peeled and entrailed, it was no more than nine pounds. ”

The doll said: "Then do you still have this specimen now, you can take us to take a few pictures one day, and I will post it on the Internet." ”

The owner of the hotel said: "I think you better forget it, when I finish telling this story, I guess you won't think about taking any photos anymore." ”

Mengshan Turtle said: "Did that Wei Jiu have any abnormal situation after killing that big hare?"

The owner of the hotel said: "At first, nothing happened then, but before I knew it, half a year had passed, and everyone thought that nothing would happen again, and they slowly forgot about it." Seeing that it was the solar term of the winter solstice, the people who played in the circle saw that nothing strange happened, so they couldn't bear it, and they came out to play again one after another, and everything seemed to be back to normal. To everyone's surprise, on the day of the winter solstice that year, Wei Jiu really had an accident. ”

Mengshan Turtle said: "What's wrong again?"

The owner of the hotel said: "At the beginning, he was just sullen and didn't care about anyone lying at home all day long, even his daughter-in-law and children didn't take care of him. Slowly, on the last day of the 39th (every nine days after the winter solstice of the lunar calendar, and so on), he suddenly went crazy like a 'scorpion minister', and became like a big rabbit, lying in the corner of the yard all day long. Sometimes, when it is very strong, it will crawl to the wheat field outside the village at a very fast speed to gnaw wheat seedlings. At this time, everyone was really scared. Fortunately, he is very popular on weekdays, has many relatives and friends, and he has a very solid life, and he has some savings. After discussing it, they helped to send him to the city's neurological hospital for systematic professional treatment. ”

The doll said, "Did you find out what went wrong, and what happened to the result?"

The owner of the hotel said: "On the day of the Spring Festival (the first day of June Nine), Wei Jiu's family was informed that he died suddenly in the bed of the hospital ward, and there was no warning or abnormal performance before his death. After communication and negotiation between his family and the hospital, the hospital symbolically took out a condolence payment, and Wei Jiu's body was officially arranged to be cremated in three days, and at the same time, his family also began a series of funeral ceremonies. All this was carried out according to the normal procedure with the help of everyone, but when I arrived at the crematorium, something strange suddenly happened. Wei Jiu, who had been diagnosed with death three days ago, miraculously sat up by himself, scaring everyone present at the time. After a period of indescribable panic, everyone was sure that he had really come back to life, and then slowly accepted it. After all, it was a great joy that he was alive again, and everyone was also happy, and quickly called the family to stop all the funerals that were going on according to the procedure. ”
