C3 (2/2)
I went up to the same teahouse on the second floor with the man who looked like a mountain genie.
”Do I know you?”
I nearly peed my pants in shock and thought to myself, fuck, you know how to speak? Why did you act dumb just now?
”You came by just now!”
”Oh, I'm a amnesic person. My memories can only be retained for a short period of time!”
These words sounded strange to me. It would be normal to say that I met with some strange incident in the old forest, but in the capital, it had been almost several years since I had met such an unorthodox situation. A mountain elf who lost his memories sent me a note and then turned around and didn't recognize me.
” Do you know this? ” I hesitated for a moment, then took the note out of my pocket and showed it to him.
” Someone asked me to give this to someone else. Why is it in your hands? ” As he spoke, he tried to snatch it back.
” ”Bro, that's not it. Old partner, don't make me laugh. Just now, you sneakily passed me this thing. I should be the one you're looking for. Just look, there's nothing here!”
” ”Oh, then you keep it. I'm leaving. I've finished this. It's enough!” With that, he prepared to leave.
”Well, who asked you to give this to me?”
” ”Like I said, I'm a amnesiac. I can only remember what I need to do!”
After that, we went back and forth. Half an hour later, I didn't ask anything, and I was even more confused. Originally, I just didn't understand this note that was handed over so suddenly, but this time, I was even more confused than before when I saw that the person in front of me wasn't human.
He was a huntsman in the village, about my age, and when the Old Branch sent me out to school, he was with me too, and after a couple of years of studying together, he dropped out of school to go back to the village because he couldn't stand the drudgery of school. In his words, studying was for a good job, a good job for a boss, and a boss for a beautiful wife.
We had an agreement that as long as the phone didn't ring, he would be in the woods, and since there was no signal, when I called, there was no answer, so there was no call.
A few minutes later, a phone rang. I saw it was him.
The moment the phone was picked up, the whistling sound of the wind coming from the other side of the phone was unclear. Following that, the sound of someone pulling on the chicken's neck could be heard, ”You brat, are you alright? You won't remember this number, right?”
”Is everything alright in the village? Has anything strange happened recently?” I don't know how to say it, but I can't say a word or two about what happened in the afternoon, and I can't understand it either.
”Yeah, that's him, the winterhead. Remember, he died a few days ago. He sat on the brick bed and killed himself. It seems that it's been a few days. If it wasn't for Mountain Cui giving him a bowl of noodles, he wouldn't have found it.”
”Oh, what else?”
Also, that's right, and that's right, on the other side of the ravine, Brother Wang, in partnership with his little brother, they have made some living animals and are preparing to raise them, and in the future they will become a hunting ground. You don't know, Little San, now that the rich are freakish, they are willing to spend money to hunt in the mountains for trouble if they have nothing to do, Brother Wang said that this hunting ground, in the future, they will earn money from these people.
