Raising Ghosts Records

Chapter 239
That morning, Lao Deng took us into the mountain. The three of us were all carrying big backpacks, while Lao Deng only brought a sickle and a few thin ropes, saying that he would set a few traps to catch wild animals.

Due to the heavy rain yesterday, there were many large and small puddles on the mountain road, and the soil where there were no puddles was particularly soft, and a lot of mud stuck to the shoes as soon as the feet stepped on them.After we walked for less than 10 minutes, we felt like a steel plate was glued to the soles of our feet, and every step felt heavy.That's because the soles of the shoes were covered with thick soil, and a large piece fell off with a stick, weighing at least one catty.In order to prevent and avoid slippery roads and falls, Lao Deng also specially cut a piece of bamboo, cut off the branches and leaves and cut it into four pieces, and gave each of us one as a walking stick.

Lao Deng walked in front, talking non-stop along the way. After walking for more than an hour, he took us to a temporary thatched hut.The three of us, Fatty, the animal boy and I, each carried a big backpack weighing twenty or thirty catties, and we were sweating profusely at the moment.After entering the thatched hut, he quickly put down his backpack and took a rest. Lao Deng said that we would come back after a while, and then went into the woods by the roadside.

The three of us rested in the thatched hut, the seat was a bench made of three trees, and the damp place was full of slugs.The fat man unscrewed the cap of the bottle and drank a big mouthful of water, then turned his head and asked Qinshouxia's younger brother, "Then Lao Deng won't leave us halfway and run home!"

"How is it possible? You're overthinking. He's gone into the woods to fall into a trap!" Little Brother Qinshou fanned his palm to catch the cold, and replied panting heavily.

I stood up and walked out of the thatched hut, looked down the mountain, and had a panoramic view of the entire city of XA and nearby cities, counties and towns.This is similar to our Guiping. When you go to the top of Xishan Mountain, you can see most of the towns and villages in Guiping, and of course the Xunjiang River that flows through Guiping.

About half an hour later, when we were all rested, Lao Deng also got out of the woods.He smiled wrinkledly, holding a bunch of wild mushrooms in his hand, strung together one by one with vines, there are probably forty or fifty mushrooms.

Lao Deng went back to the thatched cottage, and said that today is really lucky, this wild mushroom is delicious, and there will definitely be a harvest tomorrow morning, good luck!

The little brother Qinshou put his backpack on his back and asked Lao Deng how far he was from his destination. He had been walking for two hours, so he had to get there quickly. If he arrived early, he might be able to get some wild game to eat!
"Stupid! Except for those flying in the sky, almost all animals in the mountains come out at night to hunt for food, and they are easy to catch at night!" The fat man said, picking his nose.

Lao Deng laughed and said that it would take two minutes to walk fast, and three minutes to walk slowly, and the wild animals in the mountains really only come out at night.Go deeper into the mountains, and there are still wolves eating people at night!When he talked about wolves eating people, he even opened his mouth to bite.

I urge you to hurry up and leave!To avoid wasting time, everyone continued to set off again. After about two hours, they heard the faint sound of water coming from ahead.At this time, Lao Deng turned his head and told us that we were almost there, and that it was only a cigarette away at most.

Sure enough, after walking for about 10 minutes, after passing a tall forest, the front suddenly opened up.This is a gravel field about the size of a basketball court. The big pebbles are the size of oil barrels, the small buckets are the size of fist eggs, and the smallest is sand.

There is a small waterfall at one end of the sandy ground, the height is about two floors, and the width of the water flow is about 1.5 meters.Below the waterfall is a pool, about the size of a living room at home.The water from the waterfall rushing down the pool made a loud noise, which made it difficult for us to talk face to face, and we had to shout loudly to hear each other.

There is a stream about one meter wide in the middle of this sandy land, and the current is very fast. Lao Deng told us that this is the destination, and it is convenient for you to set up tents here.

The little brother Qinshou also praised that this is a good place to camp, it is clean and safe, and there is water, not only for drinking, but also for bathing and washing clothes.

Lao Deng pointed to a location next to the waterfall and told us that there was a small hole there, where we could hide in case of heavy wind and heavy rain.

Only then did the three of us notice that there was indeed a small hole next to the waterfall, and the hole was blocked by small trees and weeds, making it hard to see.We immediately ran over to have a look, and found that the hole was neither big nor small, with a height and width of one meter, which was enough for adults to pass through.

I let the little brother Beast and Fatty stay at the entrance of the cave, and prepared to go in and have a look by myself.

Little Brother Qinshou stopped me and told me to bring the flashlight, which is convenient and safe.I smiled at him and took the flashlight. Although I don't need it, I still have to put on a show.

I got into the hole, turned on the flashlight, walked about three meters, and turned a corner to the end.This is a small hole, less than ten meters deep, in the shape of the letter L.I saw that there were also some hay beds in there, and I wondered who would sleep here.

After drilling out of the small hole, Lao Deng told us that this is halfway up the main peak of Shouyang Mountain, more than ten kilometers away from the village at the foot of the mountain.However, there are also a few villages scattered in this mountain. If you go further into the mountains, there are very few villages, and you can’t meet a single one in tens of kilometers. They are all vast mountains. Few people dare to go in those places. Kind of scary.

Lao Deng shook his head while talking, took out his pipe, stuffed some tobacco leaves and lit it. His mission has been completed, and he has found such a good place for us to camp.This trip covered more than ten kilometers on the mountain road, and the ten yuan reward was a bit small, so I gave him 20 yuan.

Lao Deng was not too polite, took it over and praised me for being so generous. People in previous years were also so generous, but they were all foreign devils.After Lao Deng finished speaking, he took a deep puff of his pipe, looked up at the sun in the sky, and told us that it was too early to go down the mountain to find him if we had anything, and he went back first.

It was afternoon, and after Lao Deng left, the three of us immediately took off our clothes and jumped into the pool below the waterfall to take a bath.The water pool is about two meters deep, which is just enough for swimming. We washed off the stinky sweat from climbing the mountain, and soaked in the water very comfortably.

We took a bath for more than an hour, and when the evening approached, the little beast and the fat man started to build the tent.I didn't understand this lazy manipulation, so I turned over rocks by the stream to pass the time, maybe I actually found that white crab I made up!
Soon the little brother Beast and the fat man finished the tent, we entered the tent, took out dry food and canned food and started to eat dinner.After dinner, the sun was about to set, and he and the fat man took out their guns and went into the woods, saying that the whole meat was to be roasted at night.

And I have an idea, I want to climb to the top of Shouyang Mountain to have a look, now it should be dark when I climb up.When it gets dark, you can just observe the surrounding conditions in this mountain. Maybe if you are lucky, you will actually encounter something strange coming out.

I yelled into the woods and told the beast little brother that I was going to look around, you don't need to look for me when you come back, I will be back in the middle of the night.

Both the little brother Qinshou and the fat man agreed, and I immediately went back to the tent to get an extremely sharp saber and began to climb towards the top of Shouyang Mountain.

Mountain climbing was nothing to me. I walked like flying without a backpack. I only rested once during the period. It took me less than an hour to reach the top of the mountain. It was just getting dark at this time.

Climbing to the top of the mountain and looking down, I really have a feeling of seeing all the small mountains at a glance, as if the world is under my feet.The wind was very strong, and the temperature was a little low. I found a large pile of rocks and climbed up, and called Xiao Mengkong out. It would be great if Tongtong could come out.

After Xiaomeng was free, she spread her hands in the shape of wings, flapping vigorously as if she wanted to fly.She couldn't fly for a while, then turned around and asked me, brother jumping over the river, how high is this!

I told Xiao Mengkong that this is the highest mountain in the world, and the two of us stood on the top of the mountain.

This was my temporary nonsense, but Xiao Mengkong really believed it. After a while of complacency, she asked me what I did to climb to the top of this mountain.

I told her to look for something, brother Tiaohe dropped something very important here, and sister Tongtong can come out to play together after finding that thing.

Xiao Mengkong was very happy after hearing this, and quickly took my hand, saying that he should go find it now!Sister Tongtong also wants to come out!But she couldn't get out, because once she got out, she couldn't go back.
