Ghost Valley Remnants

The old man gently pushed open the shabby wooden door and walked in, and I followed the old man into the wooden house.

There is a candle in the wooden house, it looks so small in the wooden house, although the surrounding is dark, but you can still see what is around.

I looked up and looked around. On the walls of the wooden house were some black donkey hooves hung with silk threads, and there were some strange things that could not be named.

Hey, what is this place?Why are there so many black donkey hooves?Thinking about it, I reached out to touch the hoof of a black donkey closest to me. Suddenly, a bamboo stick hit my arm. The old man in the padded jacket stared straight at me with a bamboo stick.

"Old man, this little monkey boy didn't do it on purpose, don't be angry, come on, little monkey boy, apologize to Uncle Ye." The old man gave me a wink as he spoke.

Seeing so many black donkey hooves in the room, I bowed my head and apologized to the old man called Uncle Ye without thinking.

After I finished apologizing, the old man called Uncle Ye stopped being so hostile to me, turned his head and said to the old man, "Old Liu, you usually don't come to my place once in a few months, what is the wind that brought you here today?" Is it blowing?"

The old man smiled, "Lao Ye, it's unreasonable for you to say this. Look at the old guys in the past, how could any of them be able to stand the decorations in your room? It's just me. If I have time, I dare to come over and take a look." eyes." As he said, the old man pointed to the black donkey's hooves hanging all over the room and the strange thing that couldn't be named.

The old man paused, "Lao Ye, you have been selling these old things for so many years, why do you still live in such a wooden house? Otherwise, you should stop selling these things and just move to my house. There are still two rooms vacant, if you move here, we old brothers can play chess to relieve boredom when we have nothing to do."

After Uncle Ye heard the old man's words, his beard blew out in anger, "Old Liu, you came today to prevent me from going down the steps in front of the younger generation, didn't you?"

Immediately, the old man smiled shyly and quickly waved his hands, "No, old man, why do you miss me so much? My little nephew is from the Northeast. We have come here to relax these two days. When I go back, I want to buy a black donkey's hoof as a gift. Give it to his friend over there, it’s strange to say that this little monkey cub wants a black donkey’s hoof that is more than 50 years old, and I’m not sure if you have it, so I brought him to you to try his luck.”

When Uncle Ye heard the old man said that he wanted black donkey hooves that were more than 50 years old, his eyes flashed a strange gleam, and I, who is good at observing words and expressions, also caught this point. Could it be that Uncle Ye knew that I wanted black donkey hooves that were more than 50 years old? What do donkey hooves do?This idea magnified infinitely in my mind.

"A 50-year-old black donkey's hoof? What do you want a 50-year-old black donkey's hoof for?" Uncle Ye said.

Good guy, this sentence pushed me to the edge, I touched my nose, this is my habitual action before I lie, of course, except for those who know me very well, no one can see that I am trying to play tricks up.

"My friend likes to collect black donkey hooves. This time he heard me say that he would come to Sichuan, so he told me that if he came across a black donkey hoof that was more than 50 years old, he must buy it for him."

After hearing my words, Uncle Ye frowned, "Don't you have them in Northeast China? Why do you have to go to Sichuan to buy them?"

This sentence made me sweat when I asked, "My friend said that he has traveled all over the Northeast, but he has not found any black donkey hoofs that are more than 50 years old. No, I will bite the bullet and come to the old man."

Uncle Ye said 'hmm', "So that's the case, I thought they were gravediggers again."

Are there a lot of people who come here to fight?Why did I hear that there are so many people fighting here when I just came here? Could it be that there are really so many fighting here?Hearing Uncle Ye's words, I had countless conjectures, but I didn't dare to say them out. After all, I just came here to 'buy collectibles for friends'.

"Lao Ye, you guessed it completely wrong. The little monkey boy's family is in big business. How could he do that kind of thing like digging graves? People who do those things are people who are short of money, by the way Old Ye, after talking about it for a long time, do you have a black donkey's hoof that is more than 50 years old?" Hearing Uncle Ye say that he thought I was a grave-digger, the old man immediately became unhappy.

"Yes, of course. I have ones that are 100 years old, not to mention only 50 years old." As he spoke, Uncle Ye took a bamboo stick from the corner of the wall with an iron hook on one end. Uncle Ye took a bamboo stick and pulled off a black donkey's hoof.

"Here, kid." As he said, he brought the black donkey's hoof over.

I took advantage of the opportunity to pick it up, but I didn't expect to actually buy a black donkey's hoof over 50 years old. I was not sure that I could really buy a black donkey's hoof over 50 years old, so I didn't have much money in my pocket.

After receiving the black donkey's hoof, I put my hand in my pocket to ask for money, "Thank you, Uncle Ye, how much does this black donkey's hoof cost?"

Before Uncle Ye could speak, the old man hurriedly said, "You are my nephew, based on my relationship with Lao Ye, what money do you need? My daughter-in-law will cook ginseng soup for you, and the ginseng this little monkey brought to me is very good, you must try it."

Hearing the old man's words, Lao Ye showed a helpless expression and nodded, "You old boy is really cunning."

Now that we've talked about it, I didn't insist on taking the money anymore. After chatting for a few more words, the old man and I walked out of the wooden house and headed back.

On the way, I asked the old man why they kept talking about digging and robbing graves. The old man first asked me why I asked this question, but I prevaricated back with the excuse of curiosity, and then the old man told me why they always said digging Tomb robbery.

It happened about a year ago, in the spring of 1.
