Wait until we reach the top of the mountain.

Bo Ye was sweating all over his body. He didn't know whether he was frightened or tired. His face turned pale, and he ran to hug the trembling little tiger who was still lying on Xia Xi's head. His eyes were red and his voice was trembling.

"My treasure, I'm scared to death..."

"Bah, bah, bah! I'm squeezing my hair, I can't be scared..."

Xiaohu seemed to be like a child seeing his relatives, nestling in Master Bo's arms and purring.

Xia Xi put one hand on the ground, half-kneeling, looking in pain, and vomited two mouthfuls of blood on the ground.

I sat on the ground gasping for air.

"How are you?"

"I'm angry! Do it! Bah!"

I thought that high-altitude work was probably not suitable for Xia Xi. He would fall on flat ground, let alone in the air?
Wrestling for the second time!

This time he and Xiaohu were able to come up alive.

Luck plays a big factor.

Everyone rested for a while.

Only then did he regain his composure.

I saw that Xia Xi shook her body a few times and seemed to be fine, so I asked, "What the hell is this broken snake?"

Xia Xi said: "Ghost snake!"

I:"……"

Xia Xi said: "The ghost snake is not a ghost but a snake! It specializes in picking up rotten corpses in the cemetery and eating them. Its body is covered with phosphorus powder and looks like a will-o'-the-wisp, so it is called a ghost snake! This thing appears here, It proves that there must be a large tomb with many people buried underneath.”

No wonder the little tiger is scared when he sees it.

Originally, tiger cubs have very few natural enemies in nature, and beasts and raptors are nothing to the tiger cub. However, it is extremely smart and has the same brain as a human being. It is probably also afraid of ghosts.

I said, "Go back! If you don't go back, the villagers will become suspicious!"

Several people quickly collected their tools and headed down the side mountain.

It was already twelve o'clock when we got back to Lang Zai's house.

Lang Zai didn't sleep and was making tea in the hall. When he saw us coming back, he said, "Brother Su, if you don't come back, I will ask the villagers to look for you! Why is Brother Xia so wet?"

I said, "I accidentally fell into the water."

Lang Zai looked at us and asked, "Brother Su, are you looking for the tomb of King Chu in Wuxiandong?"

I:"……"

Seeing that we were silent, Lang Zai continued: "I suggest you stop looking."

I asked: "Lang Zai, why do you say that?"

Lang Zai replied: "My grandfather used to be the village chief. He told me that in the 50s, a dozen people came to find Wuxiandong. They lived in my house, but after they went there, they never came out again. My grandfather firmly believed There were many demons and ghosts in Wuxiandong, and they were all eaten."

"Originally, he wanted to report such a big thing, but in those days, people couldn't talk about things like ghosts and monsters. He didn't dare to tell anyone about it, so he had to put all the clothes they left in my house in an ossuary and bury them quietly as a tomb. .When my grandfather told me this, I was still very young. I was so scared that I didn’t dare to sleep at night.”

"This story left a very deep impression on me. Later, as I grew up, I saw several groups of people sneaking over to find Wuxiandong. They said they came to hunt, dig ginseng, and collect mother tea. The people in the village don’t understand the reason, but I do. But no one who comes here has ever come out again.”

"After seven or eight years, no one came here. But the group of people who came to fish some time ago probably came to the Tomb of King Chu in Wuxiandong just like you, and they didn't come out. Brother Su, I didn't want to say it at first. Yes, but you are a really nice person, I advise you not to go looking for him, or you will die!"

Lang Zai’s face was full of sincerity. As he spoke, he handed us the newly prepared Lei Cha to drink.

That’s all the talk.

There is nothing to hide.

I said, "Lang Zai, tell the truth. We are not here for the things in Wuxiandong. The main reason is that a friend of ours went into the tomb some time ago and we want to rescue him."

Hearing this, Lang Zai shook his head: "Those who can't be saved can't come out once they're in."

Xia Xi said: "Langzi, do you know where Wuxiandong is? If you know, please tell us. We are really in a hurry."

Lang Zai said: "I really don't know. No one knows where the tomb of King Chu is."

Xia Xi asked again: "Have you seen several groups of people come here looking for you, but you haven't secretly taken a look at where they came in?" Lang Zai replied: "I don't dare, these people who come in are very fierce, and you can see them at a glance." I know he’s not a good person.”

I patted Lang Zai on the shoulder: "Thank you!"

I don’t believe in monsters and ghosts at all.

Now Bian Wu's life or death is uncertain. We must go in and find him no matter what.

It rained heavily the next day.

All the villagers stayed at home.

I said to Xia Xi, "We can't wait. If we wait any longer, Lao Wu's meat will stink!"

Several people held umbrellas and tools and headed towards the cliff again.

But as soon as the little tiger arrived at the river bank, he understood that we were going to take him up the mountain again, and he refused to leave no matter what. He whined and retreated. Master Bo scolded him, and the little tiger instead lay on the ground and started pretending to be dead.

Xia Xi asked: "What's wrong with Xiaohu?"

Mr. Bo said: "It is scared and refuses to go any more."

Mr. Bo tried again and again several times.

It doesn't work at all.

Without Xiaohu, we are blind and have no choice but to go back.

I was so distraught that I had no idea how to solve this problem.

Xia Xi was also very upset: "If there are ordinary mountain tombs, there are other methods, but in the tombs inside the cliff caves, you can't even find the dragon's pulse and other methods!"

Mr. Bo comforted him: "Let's wait and see tomorrow. I'll do Xiaohu's work today."

Early the next morning.

We are ready to go up the mountain again.

When the little tiger saw this, he left us and ran towards the village.

Xia Xi asked: "Didn't you get the job done?"

Master Bo scratched his head: "That shouldn't be the case. This guy promised me that he would find a solution today!"

Soon.

We saw the little tiger riding on the back of a big black dog, shouting at the big black dog to move forward like Tang Monk riding a horse.

It was the big black dog that was scared away by the tiger cub the day before yesterday.

Seeing this, Xia Xi's eyes widened: "Brother Tiger, isn't he having sex? You guys are not the same kind!"

Xiaohu seemed to understand what Xia Xi said, turned around and barked at Xia Xi dissatisfiedly.

Xia Xi turned around and asked Master Bo: "Bobo, what is it talking about?"

Bo Ye replied: "It says you are a big fool."

Xia Xi: "...

I asked: "Master Bo, what is Xiaohu doing?"

Bo Ye replied: "I don't know, let's follow it."

Xiaohu took us to the river.

It jumped down from the big black dog and barked at the big black dog.

The big black dog seemed to be very afraid of the little tiger and took two steps back. Then it jumped into the river and started swimming to the bottom of the cliff.

When the little tiger saw this, he wagged his tail at us with a stern expression and barked a few words at us.

I asked: "What did Xiaohu say?"

Mr. Bo was also confused: "It said, let's wait and see the good show." (End of Chapter)
