"Then according to what my second uncle said, these wild geese are really difficult to deal with?"
Yue Guanchao listened to a lot of what they said, and he also understood that the geese were not ordinary people. If he met the geese this time on his trip to Qianyan Mountain, he would not necessarily cause any trouble.
"If it was easy to deal with, would the people around me give it to Dayanli Temple?"
Yue Qingshan continued: "Anything that allows the villagers to set up temples to offer sacrifices, either to show merit and good deeds to gain fame, or to resolve grudges and please worshipers. What merits can the wild geese have? I estimate that the wild geese in Qianyan Mountain are not Likewise, they are likely to be unruly and unruly, and if the people want something from them, of course they should build a temple to worship them."
"This is not something we should consider now. Let's wait until we get through tonight smoothly."
Yue Qingshan's words made everyone curious. Song Siyuan asked: "Second uncle, do you mean that these chicken-footed Taoists will be active tonight?"
These words made Lao Yue shake his head: "Didn't you listen to what Lao Ma said? Don't go out when sleeping at night. If you think about this carefully, it's probably not safe even in the cemetery. He's like this That’s how we were reminded.”
"Anyway, everyone should keep their spirits up. We must be on guard against the Taoist Taoist Chicken Feet who may cause damage, and we must also be on guard against any big monkey things in the mountains."
It was already dusk when the words were spoken, and Lao Ma was beating the gong outside the door, shouting for the mountain guards to come over for dinner. Yue Guanchao and the others put down their things and followed Lao Ma's gong to the largest courtyard.
It is said to be a courtyard, but it is actually a large warehouse with seven or eight enclosed houses with flat roofs and small windows. The roofs are covered with freshly split firewood. There are many shelves in the house, each displaying a lot of fruits and grains from the mountains. Yes, the enclosed house surrounds a square courtyard, with many simple tables and chairs made of rough wood placed in the middle, and a sunshade pergola extends from outside the enclosed house.
The meals of the mountain guards are not too sumptuous. They are mostly made from food from the mountains, such as multi-grain porridge, multi-grain steamed buns, stir-fried vegetables and pickles. If there is meat, it is pheasant and wild boar.
During the meal, Yue Guanchao had already noticed that this cemetery was unusual. These young people guarding the mountain didn't talk much and ate very quickly. If they were in a hurry to do something, it was normal to eat like this. They obviously had to rest after dark, so... Eating so fast means that there are other things to rush about. If not, most of these people would talk enthusiastically while eating and would not be so quiet.
He asked Lao Ma: "Lao Ma, you can't talk while eating?"
"I can talk, but there is no need to talk. It is almost dark. These people have to walk around the garden again after dinner. If they talk too much, they will have to postpone the patrol time. By then, we may have to meet each other. What a dirty thing, why don’t we finish eating early.”
After finishing speaking, Lao Ma lowered his voice: "These have nothing to do with you. After dinner, you can go to the yard and lock the door. You are guests in the house, we will take good care of you."
It seemed that this Hutou Mountain was indeed different. Before Yue Guanchao and the others had finished eating, the mountain guards had already picked up shotguns from the yard, lit torches, and started patrolling around the cemetery while shouting chants.
By the time they finished eating, there was no one left around except a few old men picking up buckets and picking up the leftovers on the table one after another.
Yue Guanchao and the others didn't know the situation, so they had no choice but to follow Lao Ma's request and return to the courtyard to lock the door.
About two hours later, the guardian who patrolled the cemetery had returned. After the excitement in the surrounding courtyards had subsided, the lights were quickly turned off to restore peace.
Yue Guanchao and the others stayed in the hall. As the noise in the surrounding courtyards quieted down, the movements in the wild fields in the mountains gradually became clearer. They kept getting into their ears. Howls came from the distance. When the sounds got closer and closer, it was obvious that something was coming. On the roof, it fell into the courtyard with a crash.
"This voice is probably that of a mountain horse monkey."
Yue Qingshan raised his head and looked at the beams. The sound of footsteps echoed constantly on the beams. As the howling sound got closer and closer, Mahou's voice could no longer be hidden.
"There are so many mountain guards, but these giant monkeys are still so rampant?"
There are dozens of mountain guards in the cemetery, plus these old men guarding the garden, dozens of people are not timid, and the big horse monkey dares to make trouble, which shows how arrogant it is.
Yue Qingshan continued: "As for other monkeys, it might be better to say that Malaysian monkeys are not afraid of people at all. Their bodies are like half-grown children, and they are extremely strong. Even a strong man who has been working all year round can only barely do it. In a one-on-one fight, as for the old, weak, women and children, you basically have no strength to resist, and if you are captured, you will definitely become food for the beasts."
"The scariest thing is that these beasts will eat anything."
When Yue Qingshan mentioned this, he shuddered and continued: "Monkeys are omnivores. They eat fruits, melons, rice, grains, snakes, worms, and earthworms. They also eat the flesh and blood of livestock. Even if an individual is left alone, they want to take it out. When you point something out, most people walking on mountain roads will prepare a stick. Monkeys are most afraid of bamboo sticks. Just one hit will cause them to hide for more than ten meters in pain. If their arm is broken, it can also scare other monkeys."
Among many monkeys, only mandrills, Shankui, and horse monkeys are not afraid of people. Mandrills are the smartest and can use strategies to deal with people. Shankui, mostly centenarian wild monkeys, are the most shrewd and are almost as good as humans. When dealing with people, Horses and Monkeys are the strongest ones, and people may not be able to deal with them even with weapons.
Because of its great strength, the Damascus monkey often uses its strength to do evil. It not only captures pedestrians, but also digs graves. This is what makes the Damascus monkey particularly scary.
These giant monkeys have a keen sense of smell and good agility, but they still don't dig up old carrion, and they specifically look for people who have just been buried. For them, whether it is a living person or a private person, as long as it doesn't stink in the mouth, That's food.
After digging the grave, the coffin of the dead person is often opened, and the burial objects are scattered all over the ground. The dead person is taken away to eat. As for the shrouds on these dead people, they are casually put on them in the shape of human beings. At night After that, he walked in the wilderness and terrorized passers-by.
These giant monkeys are extremely strong to begin with. After holding up their shrouds, they look like ghosts. If they put a bamboo hat on their heads, no one can tell who they are. From the perspective of passers-by, they can only see barren mountains. A soul wearing a shroud appeared in Yeling, and it was frightening to death or even half of his life.
Compared with mandrills and mountain bosses, the first two are more likely to attack lone travelers, or even deliberately deceive lone travelers. As for those who are not in their hunting area, they have nothing to do with them, and they never easily provoke living people. The latter, the big horse monkey, takes the initiative to cause trouble for living people.
They don't care if any living people are in their territory, and they don't care if any living people are alone. As long as they see a living person, they will try their best to drag them into the monkey's nest. If they really can't find a living person, they will rob the living person. s things.
Yue Qingshan said: "I guess that the horses and monkeys come to the cemetery mostly to find food, or to dig up the newly downloaded corpses. This Hutou Mountain has no village in front and no shops in the back. There is a courtyard with the most graves. These How can livestock not be moved?"
Before he finished speaking, the sound of gongs and gongs was indeed heard in the courtyard, and some mountain guards were already firing. Amidst the roar of artillery, it seemed that there were casualties among the horses, monkeys and the cemetery, and there were screams and wailings.
"No, don't let them give the second old lady's grave to Bala. She was just buried a few days ago."
The old horse's voice was old and rich, and his tone became tense. The big horse monkey became more and more perverse, barking wildly.
When Yue Guanchao listened to the noise outside the yard, he couldn't help but feel itchy in his heart. He also wanted to see what the big horse monkey was. He immediately took the shotgun and went out of the hall. He raised his legs and feet, and jumped up to the roof with the help of a waist-high millstone, and stood on the roof. You can see far and high, and you can see the movements of the giant monkey at a glance.
At this moment, not far from the courtyard, these giant monkeys are digging the soil with their claws. Two or three giant monkeys are all wearing old-fashioned shrouds and carrying bamboo hats like old men stealing watermelons from the fields. The new grave was opened by Bara, and countless wet soil was thrown outward, making the surrounding grass full of dirt lumps.
Because these monkeys had stones in their hands, all of them would have been beaten to death in the past. If the mountain guards fired, these giant monkeys also knew how to hide in the grass of the cemetery, making them extremely cunning and difficult to deal with. m.
Yue Guanchao used the flickering light of the fire to constantly feel the traces of these wild monkeys in the wild grass. He picked up a shotgun and fired into the grass. He only saw the wild monkeys whimpering a few times. When the grass moved, they immediately lost their breath. He shot three times in a row and waited. The weeds stopped moving completely, and then they stopped their posture.
Later, Lao Ma and the mountain guards groped in the grass and pulled out three big horse monkeys that had been beaten to death. When Song Siyuan and the others chased them out, Lao Ma and the others had already brought the three big horse monkeys into the yard.
If you look closely, you will see that these giant monkeys are indeed about half-grown children. The shrouds they wear must have been worn for a long time. The cuffs, elbows and hems have been worn and curled. The hats they wear on their heads are very mysterious.
After the old horse took off the bamboo hat, it turned out to be a big horse monkey with long hands and wide feet and a slightly fat belly. It had a dark red face, protruding fangs, and hair all around its head. Only the eyes, mouth and nose were red, and there were countless others. The wrinkles accumulate on the chin, the eyebrows are slightly hairy, the hands and feet are very long in proportion, and the claws are very sharp.
"I didn't expect that you were so skilled that you could kill the giant monkeys in the grass. These giant monkeys came so many times and hid in the grass every time. We couldn't catch them. , I have stolen a lot of food in the past few months, if it weren't for you today, I would have let them steal the body."
Yue Guanchao looked at the big horse monkey and asked, "Do these monkeys like to come to the cemetery?"
Lao Ma sighed: "I like coming here more than anything. As long as it is a new grave, this animal will not let go. It has to dig out the body. I don't know whether it was dragged away and eaten, or what we did." Fortunately, here, the mountain guards have chased away these monkeys, but the fate of the people living alone in the wild is not so good. Most of the newly buried corpses have been stolen. Some families can't even find their enemies, so they can only find one. The clothes were reburied.”
Some people died, but not completely...
