Chapter 176： monster (1/2)
A remote county in a county in Anhui Province.
Xu Laohan was originally an ordinary old farmer in the countryside at the foot of the mountain. He had dealt with the fields all his life. He didn't graduate from elementary school. His son was more prosperous. Anyway, after finishing high school, he took his wife to work hard in Zhejiang Province, leaving the young grandson to take care of him and his wife.
The little grandson is very cute, well-behaved, and has big, bright eyes and aura. In addition to working in the field, Xu Laohan has two hobbies, drinking and fishing. Wine is home-made rice wine. Three meals a day.
As for fishing, there are many ponds outside the village, but the old Xu family does not have it. The villagers have mussels and fish. They are waiting for the fish to be fat in the coming year. They sell for a good price. Do it.
Fortunately, there is a reservoir in the mountain, which belongs to the government and is considered a public property. When Xu Laohan was young, he also participated in the excavation of the reservoir, which was excavated by villagers in several nearby villages. Relying on the water flowing out of the reservoir in these years, one acre after acre of crops has been fed.
When Xu Laohan took the time, he would take his grandson into the mountain to fish in the reservoir. The reservoir is very large, the fish are wild, it is difficult to fish, and the mountain road is rugged and difficult to walk. Usually no one comes at all. But Xu Laohan is a master of fishing. When he enters the mountain, he always brings home some delicious fatty fish.
But not long ago, Xu Laohan took his grandson into the mountains to fish, and an accident happened. The grandson fell into the reservoir and drowned. Xu Laohan was also kicked out of the house and lived alone in the mountains.
”So cute little doll is gone. Xu Laohan always likes to drink alcohol. He works without water. The pot is always wine. We all know that it must be him who has drunk alcohol. Drowned. ”
In the countryside at the foot of the mountain, the small shop on the side of the road talked with Li Xianyu.
Grandma is a female man who speaks out what she must do. She said that she would take him to upgrade, and then she would seek the King of Thunder and Lightning for the task the next day. Considering Li Xianyu's physical condition, the Thunder King has been reluctant to allow him to blend into the blood family or some large-scale operations.
So he gave him a list of tasks, which contained suspected blood incidents, or events that had been determined to be caused by blood races, with big fish and small fish, which was regarded as intractable disease of Baoze, and he was thrown into his brain.
It coincides with Li Xianyu's heart, and the insignificant development of beauty.
The first stop was this small mountain village in Anhui Province. Li Xianyu bought a cigarette at the roadside of the village and smoked a cigarette with his aunt. Aunt also likes chatting with handsome young children.
”Well, it's an accident anyway. Is it too much to drive the old man out of the house,” said Li Xianyu.
”You are still young and you haven't become a father. Of course, you can't understand the pain of bereavement.” Aunt obviously did not stand by Xu Laohan.
”But I am a son.” Li Xianyu refused.
”If only this is the case, admit it, maybe you won't be kicked out of the house, but the old man Xu is awkward. He said that his grandson was eaten by a monster, not because he drunk negligently and drowned. Take revenge on his grandson. Where are the monsters, and other people haven't fished? Why do monsters eat his grandson? ”
The monster Li Xianyu pretended to be curious: ”Did the child find it, was it drowned or ate, and it was clear when the body was found.”
”It's weird. Many people in the village went to the reservoir to find it, but they didn't find it. The reservoir was too big, maybe it was caught by water plants. The police came for a while, but couldn't find it. Later, it was gone.” Aunt said.
After thinking about it, Li Xianyu tentatively said, ”It's a bit interesting, aunt, do you have any folklore in your village, what monsters, ghosts or whatever?”
Ninety percent of folk legends are false, but ten percent are true, and those that really came from alien blood. There is a lot of similar information in the company.
For example, farmers in the mountains find that their chickens and ducks are often missing, and the number is decreasing every day. Suspected of thieves stealing chickens and ducks, they take dogs to patrol near the farm at night. As a result, I heard the sound of ”窸 窸窣 窣” from the reeds, like the sound of something crawling, but the sound was too loud, obviously it could not be an animal. I picked up the layers of reeds, and in the moonlight, I saw a The dozens of meters long python swimming into the water, the scales glowed cold, and the amber-colored pupils seemed like big lanterns. There was a chicken in his mouth, and the sound was from the reed.
Such things are certainly not believed, but they will gradually become local folklore.
The Northeast he visited even more, the legend of Wuxian is everywhere.
Aunt thought for a while and said yes, there is a waterfall under our reservoir, and it is said that there is a dragon sleeping inside. There is also the mountain temple in the back of the mountain. When the mountain is watched in the middle of the night, the mountain goddess comes alive and walks out of the temple.
At first these sounds are absurd fictions. It is still possible for the serpent to say that the dragon is too much. If there is a dragon in the world, then my family still has a phoenix.
Li Xianyu was busy stopping her: ”Where is the reservoir, is there?”
”The reservoir is not there. It was dug a few decades ago and has a low level of qualifications. It is not qualified to have its own legend.” Aunt said with a smile.
”” The legend these days depends on qualifications.
When asked about the direction of the reservoir, the situation was similar. Li Xianyu bombarded his cigarette **** on the ground and stepped out. ”Let's go.”
Grandmother and grandmother squatted in front of the store, watching a three or four year old child sitting and shaking, cheerful music: Dad ’s father is called Grandpa
She looked up and raised a bright smile: ”I want to sit on this too.”
”Play again next time. Play next time.” Li Xianyu could not afford to lose this person and forcibly dragged her away.
There is an old saying that Wangshan came to death, and after looking at the village, he walked for half an hour before going to the mountain, and then along the overgrown weeds, almost the mountain road guessed by the mountain people step by step into the mountain.
Lu Xun once said that there was no way in the world, and that there were too many people and it became a way.
