Chapter 39: The Witch
From the discovery of the death of the mice to now I am in a state of confusion, last night also saw a section of their own ravishing encounter let me envy of the mice, how now on the dead? Dead even if. But this body appeared in a small snake and how is it, all this everything, how not to let me confused?
After sending away the small snake, the leading sorcerer-like old man to carry away the body of the ground rat, leaving us three people with a fool like standing there, I asked my second uncle said: "How did the ground rat die?"
"Who the hell knows, when I woke up in the morning, I saw him kneeling outside naked." Uncle Two said.
I looked at the boss's wife, I always felt that this woman was the murderer, and I felt a little uncomfortable in my heart, those people didn't look for trouble with us, we arrived at that small guesthouse, our guide was Ground Mouse, and he was the bargaining chip that ensured that a few of us would be able to go ahead of the old Huang's group. But now, once the ground mouse is dead, we can't even compare to Huang Lao and his group, they at least have a map, while we don't even have a map anymore.
The boss's wife looks very sad, I don't know whether it is acting or really sad for this own gunner, but she still prepared breakfast for us, in the breakfast, the second uncle pulled the boss's wife said: "big sister, not kind, last night I opened the door of the room to wait for you for a night, how come I didn't see you come to me?"
"You're joking, this master, I know at a glance that you are not an ordinary person, how can you look at a broken flower like me? Your friend died in my place, he bar is also considered my old acquaintance, sister I this heart, not a taste." The boss's wife said.
"People can't live again after death, big sister you are also sorry, do our business, the head is hanging on the belt, has long been life and death to the light, but I am just confused, my friend in the end how did he die? Big sister, you tell me the truth, if I'm not wrong, that old man just now is the blind sorcerer with open eyes that you told me last night, he seems to really have some skills. What did he say about my friend's death?" Uncle Two asked.
"Hey, who knows, this is a good end of a person, said no one, the sorcerer did not say anything, but that little snake but there is a head, last night I did not tell you, the last time the blind man opened his eyes our side had a snake disaster? Later is the blind sorcerer to the mountain god to intercede to take care of, after that time, the blind sorcerer said that the snake is the mountain god's messenger, this mountain was a lot of snakes, the villagers did not catch a lot to eat, and then he let the people are not allowed to kill the snake, the snake has not hurt people, the village often see the snake slithering in the street. Although the sorcerer did not say, but look at your friend's death, it should have angered the mountain god?" The boss's wife said.
I listened to the anger, not with you to make things up is not? I will deliberately said in a conspiratorial manner: "boss lady, this I feel strange, this mountain god why want to kill this my friend? Is it possible that this mountain god is your lover? He was jealous of my friend, so he sent a divine messenger to kill him?"
The boss's wife's face changed, but she still managed to squeeze out a smile and said, "Why can't I understand this little brother's words?"
"When I went to the restroom last night, I glanced into this friend of mine's room, the boss's wife's riding skills are good!" I said.
The boss's wife's face completely changed this time, glared at me and said, "It seems that this little brother has a bit of an opinion about me, so I'll excuse myself for a moment." Said she immediately feet wipe oil skipped, I also want to stop her to come, but was my second uncle stopped: "What is the situation?"
"This you can not hear, I think eighty percent of this gopher is to be her harm, last night I went to the toilet when I saw the boss's wife and the gopher in bed tossing it, and then woke up this gopher on the dead, you say it is strange, this may be a black store, kill the gopher is to seek money and kill people, you forget that last night into my room that one? If you guys don't come, I guess I'll end up the same way as the gopher." I said.
Uncle Two frowned tightly and said, "It's possible, but it won't be, don't forget that the ground rat came here before, while last time he was fine. No matter what, you've been in the village for so many years, you should understand the rules of the village, we're outsiders, don't offend the locals, there's no point."
"We can't call the police?" I said.
"No point, the police is also useless, besides, the ground rats this goods is a grave robber, the case file is very much, the police came may even a few of us are arrested." Second uncle said.
"So let's not live in this side, she is to see the people who come into the mountain are not good, so deliberately in this side of the black eat black." I said.
Second Uncle waved his hand and said, "Still waiting, now that we don't have a ground mouse, we don't even have a map, we can only wait."
–Though the words so, the strange death of the ground mouse had to let the three of us alert, and I after just now, I also feel that the words to the boss's wife may be a little heavy, after all, a widow also has physiological needs, she is just with the ground mouse to date a gun, and then the ground mouse is dead, I use that kind of tone to talk with a woman It is indeed not good to talk to a woman in that tone.
The three of us of course can't be idle, the original Huang Lao is a threat to us, but now it is unprecedented to become the only hope, once the gopher is dead, it may be difficult for us to find the place where he found the jade pendant in the first place, and Huang Lao and they have the gopher's map, and now they, in turn, have become our navigators.
So according to uncle's plan, we should enter the mountain as soon as possible, after entering the mountain in a hidden location to hide, sit and wait for us to be left behind the yellow old man they follow up, we follow all the way. We'll follow them all the way. We'll be the mantis catching the cicada and the yellow bird in the back.
Chen Jiuzi and I have no opinion, after all, this is also considered the only way at the moment.
The three of us to cope with the possible crisis, but this is not the way, in fact, the three of us are not atheists, but you have to say that this is the God of the mountains to send snakes to kill him, we certainly do not believe that the murderer should be the people in the village, I identified the suspect is that the flirtatious boss lady, but the second uncle said to me: "If it is really the people in the village, then the blind old man suspect But the second uncle said to me: "If it's really someone from the village who committed the crime, that blind old man's suspicion is a bit bigger, how do I look at him how twisted."
We did not discuss what results out, but agreed that no matter what the reason is, this guesthouse is now can not stay, we packed up the luggage, threw to the boss lady three thousand dollars is ready to first temporarily into the mountains to set up camp.
Waiting for the mountain pass, suddenly behind us came the boss's wife's shout: "Boss, wait a minute!"
I was instantly alert and touched the dagger at my waist, saying to Second Uncle, "The one who stopped us from entering the mountain is definitely not something good, get her?"
Second uncle blankly glanced at me and laughed, "I say great nephew, are you too sour to eat grapes, why do I feel that you are extraordinarily upset with this boss's wife? She's a woman who can stop us?"
The second uncle said I blushed, this little thought of mine was seen, just as I blushed, the second uncle had already walked over to the boss's wife and laughed, "Big sister, what? Can't bear to see me go?"
"Good brother, I can't bear to see you, but even if I can't bear to see you, I can't delay you from doing something big, it's the sorcerer who said he wants to see you." The boss's wife ran a few steps and came up for air.
"Second uncle, the visitor is not good, do not see, I think we better hurry to go." I said.
"Don't, go, go to meet, there is a man of the world, make friends or not?" Second uncle smiled, followed the boss's wife back to the guest house, we re-put down the luggage, followed a young man to a wooden attic in the village, this is the witch's house.
In remote areas, in fact, the word sorcerer is very interesting, witch, master, both psychic, but also played the role of the doctor, we arrived at this side of the time, found that the body of the gopher on the ground with a white cloth to put up, the yard is full of herbs, and the sorcerer is over there to drum up the herbs, we came to stand here, he did not even raise his head.
We stood here, he didn't even lift his head. After standing there for almost half an hour, the sorcerer said slowly: "This one who died is with you three, right, do you know how he died?"
"May I hear it." Uncle Two said.
"Last time, he broke into the Mountain God's place, and he ran away, this time, he didn't run away, the Mountain God took his life." That sorcerer said.
"I don't quite understand this." Uncle Two chuckled.
"No one understands better than you guys, this person a few months ago, went into the mountain, offended the mountain god master, last time he carried a thing in his hand to save his life, this time he died, I know better, you guys should be going to the mountain god master's place as well, that's why I called out to you guys, if you don't want to die, go now." After he finished speaking he raised his head and glared at us.
I saw his eyes and suddenly felt cold for a moment, his eyes were full of whites.
