Chapter 45: Monkey Head Mountain
Seeing what Fang Taihe said, I quickly tilted my head to the side and looked back towards the thatched house.
At this time, Blind Man Wu also used a broken stick to fumble over from the bushes and said, "Old Fang, you haven't even caught a few thieves."
Seeing Blind Wu making fun of himself, Fang Taihe was a little unhappy and snorted coldly: "
God is so virtuous that he will not take other people's lives lightly.
Moreover, Wu Xiaohu and He Jing carry many secrets with them. If these two thieves are killed at this time, the secret of Dachanggou will never be revealed.
Pindao also thinks about the overall situation."
Seeing Fang Taihe looking for steps, Blind Wu did not expose him, but laughed and said: "Since Wu Xiaohu and He Jing have run away, there is no point in staying here anymore, so let's go back first."
Seeing that Fang Taihe didn't say anything, I supported Blind Wu and the three of us walked towards Wu Xiaohu's home.
On the way, I asked why the two of them had disappeared just now.
Fang Taihe walked in front and did not answer me. Instead, blind man Wu on the side said:
"It's a long story. When you went to the store to buy wine, Lao Fang and I were having a good time drinking. Unexpectedly, Lao Fang suddenly saw Wu Xiaohu, secretly opened the door and ran out.
Lao Fang and we felt strange, so we followed him out.
Later I saw Wu Xiaohu carrying a sack, and there was movement inside, as if it was still a human being.
After Wu Xiaohu entered the thatched house, He Jing followed him in.
Then, bursts of screams came from the house, and Lao Fang and I were about to go in to save him.
I didn’t expect that I discovered you. If we hadn’t been there, and you had gone in so rashly, I’m afraid you would have followed in the footsteps of the man just now and become Wu Xiaohu and He Jing’s meal.”
Hearing this, I took a deep breath. When I heard the words "meal on the plate," I was shocked.
What Wu Xiazi means is that Wu Xiaohu and He Jing are cannibals!
After Wu Xiazi finished speaking, he sighed and shook his head.
I was still digesting Wu Xiazi's words, and I couldn't calm down for a long time. At the same time, I kept thinking about what I had just seen.
When I was in high school, Wu Xiaohu, myself, and Da Fei were inseparable all day long.
Five years ago, Wu Xiaohu came to Dachanggou Village and became the intrusive son-in-law.
Da Fei followed his second uncle and traveled around the world.
I was delivering express in Changlong Town again, so the three people who were very close friends at that time all parted ways.
What happened to Wu Xiaohu in the past few years that made him become like this?
Also, Qinglian reminded me at night not to believe Wu Xiaohu or everything in this village. This means that Qinglian has known about Wu Xiaohu's behavior for a long time.
Otherwise, why would she remind me to be careful about Wu Xiaohu?
You want me to come to the thatched house at the east end of the village to know the truth.
With questions in mind, I returned to Wu Xiaohu’s home.
Wu Xiaohu was not at home, but I was not surprised. He already knew that we had discovered his secret.
Fang Taihe and Wu Xiazi next to me are both Taoist masters. Wu Xiaohu is not a fool. He naturally understands that if he goes home, he will definitely be caught by us.
Qinglian hasn't slept yet and is sitting on a chair in the yard.
Seeing that we were back, Qinglian did not show surprise, but stood up and asked calmly: "Where is Wu Xiaohu?"
Fang Taihe looked grimly, glanced at Qinglian, turned around and returned to the wing.
I explained the situation just now to Qinglian, and Qinglian nodded without showing her expression.
Seeing this, I thought of what Qinglian had said and expressed the questions in my heart to Qinglian.
Hearing this, Qinglian removed her veil, revealing a terrifying face, sighed and said:
"Five years ago, Wu Xiaohu and I got married. At that time, he was very gentle and responsible. He was filial to his parents at home, united the villagers outside, and was kind to others.
We originally lived a very happy time, but unexpectedly, because of a fire, my face was disfigured. Wu Xiaohu seemed to be a different person. He beat and scolded me and stayed away from home all night.
I really couldn't bear it, but I also wondered why a perfectly good person turned into this.
So, one night, I pretended to be asleep, and after Wu Xiaohu left home, I followed him.
When they arrived at the thatched house at the east end of the village, they saw Wu Xiaohu and He Jing sneaking in.
At that time, my blood was boiling, I was ashamed and angry, and even more angry, I thought that he and He Jing were doing some shady things.
It is true that I am disfigured, but why is He Jing not disfigured?
I was about to open the door and question them, but I didn't expect to hear He Jing inside saying that she wanted to eat me, but Wu Xiaohu didn't agree.
I was startled by their conversation and looked in through the gap in the window.
Unexpectedly, I saw a scene that I will never forget!
Wu Xiaohu and He Jing are eating people!"
After Qinglian finished speaking, she stared at me with half-lidded eyes filled with tears.
As expected, Wu Xiaohu and He Jing were actually eating... people inside just now.
My stomach was churning, and I ran to the side and vomited all my dinner.
I felt sympathy for Qinglian for a while.
You can imagine how much psychological harm a weak woman will suffer if she sleeps with a human devil every day.
Qinglian was still crying, so I handed her a tissue and comforted her: "Sister-in-law, you have worked hard these years. I want to ask, do you know where Wu Xiaohu and He Jing can go at this moment?
"
Qinglian took the tissue and wiped her tears.
He lowered his head and thought for a while, then said: "You can go to Monkey Head Mountain to see it!"
Monkey Head Mountain?
I am not surprised that Qinglian knows so clearly. After all, she and Wu Xiaohu have been sleeping together for so many years, so it is normal for her to know about him.
He immediately ran into the side room and told Fang Taihe and Wu Xiazi what Qinglian had just said.
Unexpectedly, when blind man Wu heard the words "Houtou Mountain", he said "Ah" and jumped down from the kang.
Upon seeing this, I was shocked by Blind Wu's behavior and quickly asked Blind Wu what was going on.
Hearing this, Blind Wu sighed and said: "Weird things often happen at Monkey Head Mountain. Anyone who goes there will disappear, but no matter what, they can't be found.
Pindao was doubtful, but suffered from blindness and could not go there.
What's more, I'm only good at fortune-telling, and I don't have any good methods for dealing with entities or ghosts.
Therefore, I don’t know exactly what is going on in the Monkey Head Mountain.”
Seeing what Blind Wu said, Fang Taihe jumped down from the kang and said, "Ah? You can't even do this little thing. I thought you were so powerful!"
