Chapter 752
The man who suddenly appeared with a wolf dog on his leash seemed to be a local. After cursing, he picked up a branch and angrily tried to drive us away.
Seeing Dou Sprout peeing on the stone man, he started to scold him again.
"Old Xue, this man is so anxious, what are you talking about?" asked the head.
Uncle Xue listened for a while and said in surprise: "What he said probably means that it is almost two o'clock. On today and tomorrow of every month, no one can do anything after 2 to 4 o'clock noon and 9 o'clock in the evening." When you come to Guizailing, you can’t just pass by.”
"Damn it! You dragged the dog and bit me!" Dou Sprout took two steps back.
"Come on, fellow countryman, let's talk here."
Master Xue winked at us and put his arm around the man's shoulders. Because Master Xue was from Yongzhou, he was naturally easier to talk to than outsiders like us. We talked with him for about ten minutes. When I saw Master Xue coming over, I quickly asked what was going on.
"Tsk...it's a bit troublesome."
Master Xue frowned and said: "This person is hired by the county government. He can be considered a forest ranger. Since someone disappeared here last year, the county government has sent people to look after it. The barbed wire fence will be repaired in two months. I said we come to travel. Yes, this person told us to leave quickly."
The ranger’s name was Lao Hu, and what he said at that time was indeed true.
Everyone should know that in that era before the Internet was widely spread, except for the locals in Daoxian County, Yongzhou, outsiders did not know that such a place existed.
In May of the year we went, because someone was missing, Guizailing built a barbed wire wall and locked it to prevent entry.
Moreover, the village brigade built two paths here. Only the left path can enter, and a stone tablet was erected at the intersection.
Later, this place was designated as a cultural relic protection site. In order to increase tourism revenue, Daoxian County erected a large billboard behind the stone monument, which read: "Welcome to Guizailing and explore the unsolved mysteries."
The ranger Lao Hu who scolded us at that time lived in the small house next to the billboard. He should be there now. He is an old man. It is estimated that the wolfdog he raised has died of old age.
We were originally going to dig a hole in the woods with a Luoyang shovel, but we were driven away by Old Hu.
"Damn it! This guy is too much trouble! I want to mess with him!" After leaving the forest, Dou Sprout couldn't help but turned around and cursed.
"Wait, come and see." Xiaoxuan suddenly shouted from behind.
There is a pond next to the hillside of Guizailing. Xiaoxuan pointed to the water and said, "Look! There is bubbles in the water."
Let's take a look. It really is.
It was fine when I came here just now, but now in the middle of the pond, small bubbles keep popping up, just like someone blowing bubbles under the water.
"What's going on?"
Dou Sprout picked up a stone and threw it into the pond.
"The water isn't very deep, why is it bubbling? Give me a try, I'll give it a try."
Dou Sprouts specially found a big stone this time. He walked over holding it with both hands and smashed it into the pond, causing ripples in circles.
We just watched as the big rocks were thrown in, and they were still bubbling, which was obvious even on the shore.
Just as I was about to speak, Uncle Xue pushed me and whispered: "Stop playing and leave quickly. That person is here again."
Just like that, we were kicked out during the day without even drying our hair.
But it’s okay. I just told you that I came here to take a look during the day. People have to sleep, and night is our home court.
After twelve o'clock that night, after everyone in the village went to bed, we went together again.
Winter in the south is not as cold as in the north, but the temperature is also very low at night. I carried my bag without turning on the flashlight, and it was completely dark. I looked around and whispered: "Look around, there should be no one, let's go in."
"Well," the leader said, "Yunfeng, you lead the way and just use the flashlight. The others should follow closely."
Entering the forest, with dead leaves under my feet, I turned the flashlight brighter.
The light shone on the faces of those stone men, making them feel a little uncomfortable.
In particular, some of the stone figures have smiling faces. When we look at them, they also look at us.
Xiaoxuan patted my arm: "Stop taking pictures, it's scary. Let's get to work quickly."
I unzipped the bag and twisted the Luoyang section by section. It was more than three meters long. I stood up with the shovel and asked: "Where to hit the head?"
"Start right from the bottom of your feet."
