The high-level guide spoke unintentionally, but Ma Yuzhi and I were interested in the listener.
The two of us looked at each other involuntarily, and an ominous premonition flashed through our hearts involuntarily.
But soon the two of us heard Min Chaohui whispering from the side: "Then let's go over and take a look to see if the other party has extra rooms. If there are extra rooms, we will bother each other overnight. If there are no extra rooms. We will come back and continue camping in the open air."
Under the leadership of Xiao Zhang, we saw a neat row of four rooms from a distance in a short while.
"Hey, there is really one more family on this Zhulan Mountain!" Gao Zhihui was stunned and continued: "I don't know who it is, but I built the house here. It's not very convenient to travel on the top of the mountain.
As Xiao Zhang gently knocked on the door, in a short while, an elderly man opened the door and appeared in our sight.
"Who are you looking for?" the old man asked loudly at us.
The moment the old man opened the door and appeared in front of us, my eyes fell on the old man without blinking.
I saw that this old man was about 70 years old, and his body looked very tough. In addition, I saw that against the setting sun, there was an elongated shadow on the side of the old man. This shows that the old man is just like us, not a ghost.
This discovery also relieved me a lot.
He glanced at me, and when he saw me nodded slightly, Min Chaohui said to the old man: "Master, we are the policemen who passed by here to handle the case. We want to spend the night at your house tonight. I don't know if it is convenient. ?"
"Are you a policeman?" He glanced at us and nodded when he saw us. The old man just said: "During the Spring Festival, my baby went home and built these four new houses for me. After the house was built, the baby went out to work again. Now three of the four houses are vacant. If you don’t dislike , Just can live in."
Hearing what the old man said, we thanked him in a low voice. After a while, we followed the old man into the room.
Not to mention, although these houses were built on the top of the mountain, the houses passed by
After a simple decoration, although there is no electricity, the whole house looks pretty good under the kerosene lamp.
"Uncle, there are no houses in this area near Zhulan Mountain, and it is not convenient to get in and out of this place. Why did you build houses in this place in the first place?"
The voice of the high guide fell, and the old man said: "I have lived in this mountain for a lifetime. I like the soil in this place and the air in this place. If I are allowed to take root in other places, maybe it will take less than a few days. Kills my life."
"The homeland is hard to leave. These four words are vividly reflected in your body, uncle."
"I was joking, I was joking!" The uncle waved his hand at us, paused for a moment, and then he asked again: "You haven't eaten yet. I just made a pot of game stew. Do you want to try it?"
"Game?" Jiang Yu swallowed, and said: "The dry food we all ate on the way, the birds have already faded out of this mouth. If there is game, I just want to know."
It was Min Chaohui who knew the rules better. When Jiang Yu's voice fell, he took out five hundred yuan and handed it to the old man's side.
"Uncle, we are the people's police. We can't eat and drink your things for nothing, and we can't live in your place for nothing. You must take the five hundred dollars and don't refuse."
"Money is of no use to me!" The old man glanced at us, and then said: "If you really want to leave something for me, leave your heart to me."
Hearing the old man's words, Ma Yu raised his brows and asked, "What do you want our hearts to do? Is it possible that you are a mountain spirit monster?"
"Just kidding, don't be nervous!" Smiling at us, the old man walked towards the stove and said to us without looking back: "The children's hearts are floating outside, I I like that one day they can put their hearts on me and remember to go home often."
"Uncle, it turns out that you meant to leave your heart here!" Min Chaohui smiled at the old man and said, "We will keep our heart here. In the future, if we come here to perform our tasks, we I must come to see you."
"it is good!
it is good! it is good! "The old man said three good words in a row and scooped the contents of the pot with a ladle. After a while, we smelled a strong smell of meat.
"What kind of meat is this? It smells so fragrant." Jiang Yu couldn't wait to ask as soon as the big basin was placed on the table.
"This meat is really fragrant, but it's hard to get it." The old man glanced at us, smiled and asked, "You might as well guess what meat it is."
Holding the chopsticks and pulling it out of the soup, Jiang Yu was the first one to say: "I think this should be rabbit meat. There are most rabbits in the forest."
"You didn't hear the uncle say? Uncle said, this meat is difficult to get. So let me say, this should be venison."
"No, no, there is more venison in the north and less in the south. I think it should be wild pork."
Hearing everyone's discussion, Ma Yuzhi picked up his chopsticks and pulled out the soup in the same way as Jiang Yu. After a while, Ma Yuzhi changed his face, stood up and shouted to the old man in a low voice, "This is not rabbit meat, nor venison, let alone wild boar, this is human flesh."
Ma Yuzhi's words are like a stone being thrown on the calm water. We almost stood up at the same time and cast our sights on Ma Yuzhi and the old man.
"Little girl, why do you say this is human flesh?"
"Tattoos, there is a piece of flesh with a rose tattoo on it." Ma Yuzhi said here, paused for a moment and then said: "Human flesh is hard to get, not because people are hard to grasp, but because not many people pass by here."
Looking at the old man, Ma Yuzhi went on to say: "You have a shadow, you are not a ghost, and you are also not a human. If I am not mistaken, you are a mountain spirit monster on Zhulan Mountain!"
"Hahaha..." The old man laughed a few times, and said to Ma Yuzhi: "Then you guess what demon I am? If you guess it right, I can let you go today. On the contrary, if you guess it wrong , You are all going to die today, and it will become my ration after death."
Ma Yuzhi raised his hand and waved at us. Wait until we converge and calm down. Ma Yuzhicai followed: "You are a tree demon!"
