Chapter 22 Are there really monsters?

But whether it's true or false, I'm not the person involved, and I can't judge. Instead, Old Ghost Wu was flying up and down, shouting: "It's true, it's true, it's true, there are monsters in this old forest."

My head is full of black lines. There are monsters in this old forest. Why is Old Ghost Wu so excited? However, in front of this crowd, I can’t ask what Old Ghost Wu knows. I can only hold it in. I see Cheng Xin

The way I looked, my brother had the same thoughts as me.

As for Lao Zhang, he glanced at Old Ghost Wu intentionally or unintentionally, and finally said: "Old Shen, I can understand what you mean, not to mention who Wu Dadan met, in short, he was scared to death.

It means that the things inside are restless, so some 'sticks' came out to fight for the land, but I always have to go to this deep forest, so I won't go back with you."

"Isn't this something difficult? Can't we go at another time?" Lao Shen said worriedly, holding the dry tobacco stick.

"Well, I can't change it." Lao Zhang said dullly.

This honest man can't change his promise even if he spits on it and nails it with swords and fire.

"Old Zhang, I'm not saying anything unlucky. You said you were going to go to this deep forest. What if someone is killed? We mountain people are not afraid of dying in the mountains. To put it bluntly, if Chairman Mao comes out to study,

Son, didn't you say that there is no need for a graveyard to bury the bones, and there is no place in life without green hills! But we are not afraid, it is difficult for the girls in this city to deal with them?" Old Shen persuaded Old Zhang.

But I applauded Old Shen's words. Is this kind of pride the true nature of a mountain man?

Lao Zhang smiled, patted Lao Shen on the shoulder and said: "My heart is open. I told you just now that these young people are very capable people. Do you not believe it or something?"

"Okay, then I won't leave the ink. You can go ahead. We have set a trap in the surrounding woods. If we catch a roe deer or something, don't be polite. Just eat it and leave the skin to hang on the tree.

Just go up there. Save your energy and go deep into the forest. When you come back, we two brothers will prepare two cups."

"Sure!" Lao Zhang agreed directly.

Lao Shen said he didn't want to be verbose, so he really didn't want to be verbose. He said a few words and left with the others.

However, what he said made us feel bored. Lao Zhang looked up at the sky and said: "Let's hurry up and hurry up. We can reach the edge of this mountain tonight, and I think we can reach it tomorrow."

We're going deep into the woods."

After Lao Zhang said this, we followed him. Because we met Lao Shen and his party, the relaxed atmosphere just now was gone. After all, the road ahead is uncertain and no one has a sure idea, especially me. I understand it so well.

If I encounter a monster, it's my job to protect everyone.

Because the atmosphere was already dull, I didn’t ask Mr. Wu anything. It was not the time to ask questions when we were on our way. On the way, Lao Zhang deliberately spared Luo Lu and took a look at the trap Lao Shen and the others had set. It was our fault.

As luck would have it, there was a trap in it, and it actually caught a roe deer.

Lao Zhang beat the roe deer to death with a wooden stick, dragged the roe deer to a place a mile or two away, and began to take care of the roe deer carefully. I didn't see it clearly, but I saw him scratching the roe deer a few times.

With the knife, he pulled, pulled, and stretched, and the skin of the roe deer was peeled off.

We can't learn these skills after all. To paraphrase Lao Zhang, we have to devote most of our lives to the vast forest in order to have this skill. I looked at it for a while, then I remembered Mr. Wu, so I asked Mr. Wu

The ghost waved and asked him to come over.

Wu Laogui was squatting in front of Lao Zhang, watching Lao Zhang take care of the roe deer with great interest. I waved to him, and his face immediately turned into a "bitter melon face", but he immediately made a respectful expression.

His appearance quickly floated over.

This old ghost is afraid of me!

"Let's camp here tonight, have a meal and drink hot water. It's getting dark now and we can't travel. It's dangerous to drive at night in the old forest." Lao Zhang raised his head and said.

I actually understood that we were going into the deep woods. Lao Zhang felt a little uneasy after all. It would be good to stay one more night in this familiar forest. Everyone has this kind of ostrich mentality, so why don't we? So,

When Lao Zhang said this, the three of us would fly

Nodding quickly, Brother Chengxin signaled me to ask Old Ghost Wu what he was talking about, and he went to set up a tent, with Ruxue helping. I stared at Old Ghost Wu for a long time, until his face twitched, and then I spoke.

To: "Old Wu, do you think some of us are not being honest with you?"

"How can that be possible? Brother Cheng, you don't want to say that? Isn't this ruining my reputation?" Wu Laogui looked filled with indignation, as if if I kept talking, he would show me his heart.

, is it really true?

"But why didn't you tell us at the beginning that there were monsters in this old forest? Only after Old Shen told us did you mention it and say it was true, really?" I asked with a deliberately tigerish face,

Then he quickly added: "In short, we are also on your pirate ship. We still have to rush inward. What do you know? Just tell me quickly. If you want to hide anything, we can turn around and leave. Do you believe it?"

"

Hearing what I said, Mr. Wu had a sad expression on his face. He looked like he wanted to call himself a big mouth, and scolded himself: "I made you talk too much, and I made you mean."

But he couldn't take back what he said and was frightened by me again, so Old Ghost Wu still spoke: "Actually, I haven't seen any monsters in this forest with my own eyes. It's just that Old Shen said this today."

The words reminded me of the time I followed that kid into the woods. It was he who led us together.

Along the way, he stopped at several places and disappeared for the whole night. At first, we didn’t ask, but later on, when the number of times increased, my eldest brother started to murmur in his heart. After all, our brother was five years old.

You don't have much ability. How can you not be afraid of spending the night alone in the woods? So I asked."

"Then what did you say?" I asked, but I vaguely guessed what was going on. This guess made me shocked. But what was going on? What was going on?

What Old Ghost Wu said.

"My eldest brother asked, and the kid didn't hide anything. He told us that there are monsters in this old forest, and they are active at night. He went out to negotiate with those monsters, so that they would not harass us, or else

If you listen, just clean it up. You will always be obedient. That’s what he said. Of course

At that time, we respected him as our master, and admired him in our hearts and mouths. He is so capable, but how could we know this kid?" Old Ghost Wu gritted his teeth, and then added: "This is all I know, monsters, I

I’ve never seen it before, he’s the one who’s talking anyway, who knows if that guy is talking nonsense?”

I didn't answer, but I comforted him a few words, but the old boy seemed heartless. Seeing that I didn't press him anymore, he comforted him a few words, and then happily went to see Lao Zhang to take care of him.

The roe deer is gone. Sometimes I really wonder, is this old man Wu really worried about revenge?

However, what I didn’t tell Mr. Wu was that his cheap master who once harmed him was very likely. It’s really not nonsense. That’s what I just guessed in my mind. He went to fight monsters at night, and the purpose was not

The purpose of protecting the five old ghosts Wu may be to prevent these monsters from coveting him when he opens his tomb, and to establish a prestige first.

Calculating it this way, this middle-aged Taoist priest is quite capable. At least I can't really negotiate or fight with monsters.

What about the consciousness of returning to my hometown? Another day, a big slap in the face will wake this guy up!

However, when I thought about it, I was secretly surprised. When did I start talking so much in Northeastern dialect?

Thinking about it, I felt happy, and I immediately accompanied Brother Chengxin and Ruxue to pack up the tent!

At night, the bonfire was lit, and the roe deer skin was taken away by Lao Zhang and hung back on the tree!

On top of the bonfire, there is a large pot on which Lao Zhang stews roe deer meat. He said that always eating grilled things makes it easy to get angry, but occasionally eating stew does not cause excessive heat and keeps the body warm!

The tent was set up behind us. It was a large tent that could accommodate 3 or 4 people. However, in this forest, we always have to keep vigil at night. It is still the same old rule. Lao Zhang stays the night before, I stay the night, and Brother Chengxin stays the night after.

.

This night is as quiet as ever. Except for the occasional screams of unknown things in the old forest, the mood that was ups and downs because of the monsters just now has calmed down. Tonight should be as quiet as the previous nights.
