Chapter 16: The Horror of the Mountains and Forests

After a tired day, Lu Chengfeng took off his shoes and socks and lay down weakly, but seeing Song Qingshan sitting on the edge of the bed with a heavy heart, he didn't sleep, he sat up and said, "Senior Brother Song, you don't have to be like this, this guy won't stay long in the back mountain!"

"Why?"

"Brother Gongzi like this has lived a happy life since he was a child, this back mountain is not a place for him to stay, and when the time comes, he will leave when he is bored!" Lu Chengfeng said weakly.

"Yes, what the stuffy gourd said is right!" Lu Ping'an also said on the side.

Song Qingshan sighed heavily, shook his head and said, "I really can't imagine that I have been in charge of the affairs of the back mountain for so long, and I can't compare to a newcomer!"

Lu Chengfeng shook his head, yawned and said, "Let's talk about fairness after you have your own strength!"

At this moment, someone knocked on the door outside, Lu Ping'an got up and opened it, but saw that the person who came was the thin monkey and the fat cow.

As soon as the two of them entered the door, they hugged their fists respectfully, "My brothers thank Senior Brother Song for taking the risk to help!"

Song Qingshan waved his hand and said, "If you want to thank this Senior Brother Lu, thank you! The solution was came up with by him, I just put some effort into it!"

The thin monkey turned his head and looked at him with disdain, "This kid has this ability?"

As soon as these words came out, Lu Ping'an couldn't help it, and immediately stood up from the bed, and shouted excitedly, "You two insulted us first this morning, and the stuffy gourd helped you regardless of the previous suspicions, if you don't thank you, forget it, and actually speak ill of each other!"

"What, you want to fight?" the fat cow was also a little unhappy.

Lu Chengfeng wasn't angry, he just snorted coldly, "Peace, forget it!"

Song Qingshan waved his hand. "It's not getting early, you better rest early!"

When the two of them heard this, they turned around and went out, and the thin monkey seemed to have a deep meaning before leaving, and glanced at Lu Chengfeng who was lying on the bed in a daze.

Throughout the back mountain, the lights in the room gradually went out, and the silver moonlight sprinkled all over the courtyard, which was unusually quiet, and from time to time there were bursts of snoring from a certain room......

In the early morning of the next day, Li Yunfei suddenly had a problem, and he asked Lu Chengfeng to bring only a firewood knife and chop firewood on the opposite mountain for a day and a night before he was allowed to come back.

Everyone was a little confused at first, but when they saw Liu Tianci's treacherous appearance, they immediately understood most of it. It seems that this guy said something to the ****** last night because he lost the money, and took revenge for some reason.

Lu Chengfeng knew it, and after pulling Lu Ping'an aside and whispering a few words, he left with a firewood knife.

As soon as he entered the forest, he heard a sharp bird's call, and as soon as he approached the cave, there was a pungent smell of wine, which he was all too familiar with, it was the wine he had made himself. As he walked, he suddenly kicked something under his feet, and when he picked it up, it was a wine jar, and he picked it up and looked at it, and his conjecture was even more certain. When he picked up the bird, the smell of wine seemed to be even stronger, and his eyes fell on the bowl that had been filled with water last night, and when he picked it up, he smelled it, and it turned out that the smell of wine came from this bowl.

Looking at the languishing appearance of the bird, he couldn't help but be a little amused, thinking that someone had been drinking here last night after he left, and maybe he was too bored to drink alone, so he let this fledgling bird drink with him.

But who is this person? The person who can come and go freely in Shushan and is addicted to alcohol is probably the only one who has been a wine thief for ten years.

As soon as he thought of this, he stood up, looked around, and shouted twice, "Senior...... Senior ......"

But except for the echoes that echoed in the mountains and forests, there was still no answer. Suddenly remembered the last words that the old man said before leaving, then this old man must be a certain senior in Shushan, but he has never seen him in Shushan for so long, could he have been deceived? But when the jade pendant was handed to the head of Cijian at that time, the old man had definitely seen it, but what was going on? After thinking about it, he never understood the point, so he simply didn't want to.

Lu Chengfeng took the firewood knife and walked slowly towards the depths of the jungle, if that guy saw him return empty-handed tomorrow morning, he didn't know what tricks he would play! Before Shushan did not gain a firm foothold, all he could do was to be patient.

It was noon after dead trees had fallen and they had been cut into bundles. He was tired and hungry, and he was already sweating, and he lazily fell beside a thick tree, and a cool breeze hit him in the woods, and his sleepiness grew thicker, regardless of the cry of the birds around him.

I don't know how long it was, but he was awakened by a chill, and when he opened his eyes, the sky was already full of moonlight.

After a day of hunger, he began to feel a little weak, and he got up and found some wild fruits to eat, but he still didn't feel anything.

But the bird beside him still kept calling, Lu Chengfeng sighed weakly and said, "Don't call, I'm dying of hunger, can't you bear it?"

"Stuffy gourd...... Stuffy gourd ......"

At this moment, several shouts suddenly came from outside the mountain forest.

Hearing this voice, Lu Chengfeng was overjoyed, and hurriedly ran towards the place where the sound came from, but saw Lu Ping'an bring some food and water.

didn't care so much, he took the steamed bun and threw two to the bird, and he gobbled it up.

Lu Ping'an said, "Fortunately, you let me hide all the silver, as soon as that guy entered the door, he searched for you and me on the bed, and finally found nothing for a long time." I was angry when he left, and I don't think he would give up easily!"

Lu Chengfeng said while eating, "You don't care about him! Don't clash with him head-on, when you mess with me one day, Lao Tzu has to clean up this kid!"

"This guy is the son of the village chief, and he has bullied us since he was a child, so it's time to beat him up one day!" Lu Ping'an was obviously a little angry when he thought about it.

"How did you get out? If that guy finds out, it's going to be troublesome!" Lu Chengfeng asked with some concern after eating.

Lu Ping'an scratched his head, and said with a smile, "I used the excuse of going to the toilet and turned it out of it!"

Behind the latrine was a hillside, and below the hillside was the path down the hill, but the hillside was overgrown with thorns, and there were many man-high thatch, and the thatch had barbs on it, and to try to pass through it would be covered with wounds.

By the moonlight, Lu Chengfeng noticed that his clothes had already been torn and turned into strips of cloth, and blood was oozing out of the criss-crossing openings, and even the chubby face was marked with blood.

At this moment, he couldn't help but feel a little sorry for this chubby and cute cousin. Although he has been timid and cowardly since he was a child, he has never called himself the eldest brother in his life, and his second aunt has never allowed him to play with him, but he has been very close to him since he was a child, and he has been scolded by his second aunt for this. Last time he could have stayed out of it, but he must have fallen out with his family because of his own affairs. When I came here, I didn't take good care of him.

Thinking of this, Lu Chengfeng touched a cut on his face and asked softly, "Does it hurt?"

Lu Ping'an seemed to be a little unaccustomed to his way of expressing his feelings, so he pulled his hand away and said, "What is this little injury, the main thing is that I was almost scared to death when I crossed that bridge!"

Hearing this, Lu Chengfeng couldn't help laughing, "You've been out for so long, go back quickly, so as not to be caught by that guy!"

Lu Ping'an nodded and said, "I heard them say that there are fierce beasts in this mountain forest, be careful!"

"Got it! Let's go!"

Seeing him leave, Lu Chengfeng got up and walked deep into the mountains and forests.

And just as Lu Ping'an hurriedly walked across the bridge, a thin figure appeared in the thick fog, looking at his back with a wicked smile, "It seems that it's not a coincidence, it's really you two guys!"

And the identities of these two people were discovered, and if the ****** knew about it, that guy would not stop, and once there was a conflict, things would be out of control.

The two of them are still ignorant of this hidden crisis.

After eating and drinking, Lu Chengfeng found some dead leaves and branches to spread on the ground, and he lay down, probably because he was used to wandering since he was a child, but he fell asleep in this mountain forest.

The lush canopy of the trees above his head gave way to a small gap in time, looking up at the stars in the sky, and for a while it was like sitting in a well and watching the sky.

The wind whistled through the mountains and forests, and the birds that were sleeping flew away with the rustling of leaves.

At this moment, the birds beside him also chirped like a lively one, and their sharp voices pierced through the vast and deep mountain forest like a sharp blade.

Lu Chengfeng turned his head sideways and smiled, "People call you too, but your voice is too loud!" After speaking, he turned his head and fell asleep.

The bird, however, seemed to be encouraged by some kind of encouragement, and its cry became louder and louder, without the slightest intention of stopping. For a while, the empty mountain forest could only hear the shrill birdsong.

Seeing that he didn't react, the bird actually pecked him the arm.

Lu Chengfeng immediately turned around and wanted to stop it, but as soon as he turned his head, he saw that the bird was looking at it, as if he had found something.

Did he find his family? He looked towards the top of the tree, and because the light was dim, he didn't see anything before he looked back.

But when he saw the bird again, goosebumps rose all over his body, and he saw that the feathers all over his body stood up, and his cry became more and more urgent, like the beat of a hurried drum.

He suddenly seemed to realize something, and he immediately wanted to stand up, but at the moment of getting up, there was a sudden stabbing pain in his back. He jerked it against his back, and suddenly it was as if he had grabbed something, slippery, as if it was still squirming. He felt his scalp tingle, and in a panic he threw the thing out, and rolled away from the tree.

At that moment, the scream became more and more fierce, and the bird's wings fluttered and then flew out and stopped two steps.
