"Don't look at that mountain, it's easy to get into trouble." The aunt passing by saw them staring at Luwu Mountain and quickly reminded them.
Hearing this, Mu Huaiwei looked at the aunt and asked in surprise: "Aunt, what will happen?"
"Are you foreigners?" The aunt looked them over. In front of her were three women, a man and a dog. They were all outstanding in appearance, especially the one standing in the middle, not to mention how handsome he was.
Bao Chun said with a smile: "We are here for a trip. The scenery on the mountain in front is quite beautiful."
Bao Chun is only in his thirties, he is gentle and elegant, and it is easy to win people's favor.
Hearing this, the aunt kindly reminded: "If you want to climb that mountain, forget it! There are weird things on that mountain. Even people in our town dare not go to that mountain. Once people go in, there are ten
Eight or nine times I can’t get out.”
"Why do you say that? I don't think there is smoke from cooking on that mountain?" Mu Huaiwei showed a confused expression.
Luwu Mountain is not far away, as if it is very close.
From where they were, they could clearly see wisps of smoke halfway up the mountain.
"Those are the people from Dayu Village. Those people are different from us." A trace of disgust and fear flashed in the aunt's eyes at the end of her words.
"What's the difference?" Shu Yao seemed curious.
"The people in Dayu Village have always been xenophobic. Outsiders are generally not allowed to enter the village, and they rarely come to this town. And..." The Great God lowered his voice, "They believe in gods, and every household enshrines a statue of the god.
, but that thing doesn’t look like a real god, and they also hold a kind of ceremony every month..."
At this point, the aunt's words stopped abruptly, and she was obviously hesitant to say anything.
"Just listen to my advice, don't go to that mountain, let alone Dayu Village." The aunt saw that they were all foreigners, and was afraid that they would not understand the importance, so she said seriously.
Bao Chun replied with a smile: "Okay, Auntie, we will walk around nearby."
There is only one road from this town to Luwu Mountain, which is at least five kilometers away. However, Bao Chun asked around the whole town, and no car was willing to take them there.
As long as Luwu Mountain or Dayu Village is mentioned, everyone's expressions are obviously different from that of the old lady before. They are all afraid.
In desperation, the four of them plus Tao Da Tou had no choice but to walk there.
When we reached the foot of Luwu Mountain, it was already deserted, and we couldn't see a single person for a long time.
All I can hear is the chirping of birds in the forest.
And this bird's call sounds a little strange, some like the sound of a vulture, and some like the cry of a baby.
Mu Huai rubbed his arms slightly: "What kind of birds are these? They look quite strange, and their cries are so haunting."
She looked at the big bird on a big tree in front of her. It looked a bit like a vulture, but it was larger than ordinary vultures, and their beaks were longer and sharper.
Moreover, there seemed to be only one kind of bird in the entire mountain here. When they looked around, they almost didn't see the second type of bird.
"Luoluo Bird, a bird that eats people." Shu Yao recognized the bird at a glance, "However, Luoluo Bird should be in Laishan, how could it appear here?"
"Eat humans!" Mu Huai's lips trembled slightly, and he immediately looked away, never daring to look at the Luoluo bird on the branch again.
Mu Weining was also a little scared, but she held on and did not flinch.
A trace of hesitation flashed in Bao Chun's eyes.
The Luoluo bird seemed to sense their fear, and actually fluttered its wings and flew towards them.
"Ah!" Mu Huaiwei screamed in fright and tightened Shu Yao's clothes.
Mu Weining's feet staggered, but fortunately Shu Yao helped her in time.
Bao Chun took two steps back and fell to the end of the group.
Shu Yao raised her eyes slightly, looking at the direction in which the Luo Luo bird was flying, and immediately met the Luo Luo bird's dark green eyes, which shone with human appetite and greed.
"Yeah -" The rough and hoarse voice had a hint of harshness. The Luo Luo bird stayed in mid-air for a second, flapped its wings as if being chased by a ghost, and then quickly flew away in the opposite direction.
"Let's go up the mountain!" Shu Yao took the lead and stepped onto the mountain road.
Taotiou followed behind with his tail swung.
"Otherwise we should wait until early tomorrow morning to go up. I think it will get dark by now." Bao Chun hesitated.
Shu Yao looked back at him: "We just have to go up now. The aunt said before that the people in Dayu Village are xenophobic. If we go in broad daylight, we may not be able to enter the village."
Bao Chun lowered his head, lowered his eyes, and said nothing more.
Mu Weining quickly followed. She was not afraid of man-eating birds. As long as she could find her child, she was not afraid of anything.
Mu Huaiwei followed closely behind, his feet were a little shaky, but he still hurriedly caught up.
When Bao Chun saw that they were all gone, he gritted his teeth and strode forward.
The smoke from cooking in Dayu Village was very close, but I actually walked up the mountain and climbed the mountain road for more than two hours, but I still didn't see anyone. On the contrary, the sky was getting darker.
There is only the last ray of setting sun left in the sky. It is obviously still the hot season, but the breeze that occasionally blows in the mountains and forests at this moment makes Mu Huaiwei and Mu Weining feel a little chilly, and it is the kind that comes from their bones.
Cold.
Bao Chun, who was wearing a coat, couldn't help but tremble. He looked at Mu Weining, who was only wearing a thin shirt and wide-leg pants. He took off his coat and put it on her: "Be careful of catching a cold. I told you to call me."
Don't come, what if you get sick before you go back?"
Mu Weining was very impressed by her husband's concern. She smiled slightly, but shook her head: "I'm not afraid of getting sick. I can feel that Kangkang is here."
Bao Chun could only sigh and tighten his wife's hand.
After walking for another half hour, they gradually smelled the aroma of the food.
"Who are you?" From the jungle nearby, a middle-aged woman in her thirties or forties came out. She had a narrow forehead and many wrinkles on her face. Under a pair of scattered eyebrows, her eyes glanced at them coldly.
"Sister, we are tourists here. We saw the beautiful scenery on the mountain, so we came up for a walk. But we accidentally got lost. It's dark now, and it's not safe to go down the mountain. I wonder if you can take us in for the night."
Bao Chun stepped forward with a gentle smile and said.
"You want to enter our village?" The expression on this woman's face became a little strange.
Bao Chun said: "Sister, we won't stay long, as long as we can rest for one night."
With that said, Bao Chun took out a few red banknotes and handed them over.
As the saying goes, money can make ghosts go round. Because they are not sure what is weird about this Dayu Village, each of them carries a certain amount of banknotes with them.
The woman immediately took the money, with an obviously happier expression on her face, and looked at all of them, including Taotiou.
There was an indescribable weirdness in this look. To be honest, it looked a bit like the Luoluo bird they had encountered at the foot of the mountain before.
"Okay, you can follow me into the village first." The woman relaxed and walked in front to lead the way. "You'd better follow me quickly. It's not peaceful in the mountains at night."
The Luoluo Bird is a bird and beast recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas. The Classic of Mountains and Seas does not describe its specific appearance. The appearance of the Luoluo Bird here is just my imagination.
