After this torment, most of the night passed, and the sky gradually became clearer. I even began to doubt Lao Huang. He knew something more or less from the time we first came back and prepared to enter the village.

Seeing my confused look, Lao Huang found a place, sat down, took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed it to us, but then smiled, lit the fire himself, and took a puff.

"Ahem..."

He coughed a few times, but now he was not in a hurry, "Now, sit down!"

"It's been decades, and it's gone by in a blink of an eye. I'm old!"

Dakui and I looked at each other, but we didn't interrupt him.

Lao Huang said that at that time, a few decades ago, he was still a half-grown child and was picked up from a deserted forest by a wandering Taoist priest. From then on, he followed the Taoist priest.

But the life was also comfortable.

But one day, the Taoist priest found a hilltop and found a stone temple inside the mountain. However, what was enshrined in it was not a Buddha statue, but a temple of earth.

A madman actually came out of the temple. He looked quite young. He was still wearing work clothes. He was crazy and muttering something to himself.

The Taoist priest counted with his fingers and looked a little embarrassed.

At that time, the child next to him asked him, what happened? Because he had never seen the Taoist priest so frightened.

"Disaster, disaster!" The Taoist looked up to the sky and roared!

However, at that time, Lao Huang stared at the Taoist priest with some understanding.

"That crazy young man is..." Lao Huang stared at us and said to me seriously, "It's Mr. Lin... who is Lin Yu, your grandfather!"

"What?"

As soon as I heard him say this, I felt restless.

"Listen to me first."

Lao Huang said, "My master said that he became crazy because he was severely stimulated."

"What happened next?"

Dakui asked.

Later, Lao Huang recalled that the Taoist priest found a way to cure Mr. Lin's illness, but for more than half a month after the cure, Mr. Lin seemed to be preoccupied and stared at a book every day without saying a word. .

"No, to be precise, there should be only half of the fragment." Old Huang added, "It's "Journey to the West"!"

Until one day, he handed the fragment of the scroll to the Taoist priest, who was also stunned. But Lao Huang never knew what was recorded in the book. At least he would never think of it as just a scripted myth.

After that, more than half a month passed. The Taoist priest and Mr. Lin were both wandering around the mountain, as if they were looking for something. Until one day, they seemed to have discovered something. They found an almost abandoned village near a barren mountain.

The village is very strange. There are people living in it during the day, but at night, all the villagers will move out of the village and hide in a nearby cave for one night. Day after day, year after year, because at night, for some reason, the village Inside, some foul-smelling liquid began to seep out from the ground.

It smells like rot.

Not only that, at night, there will be some inexplicable strange sounds and roars in the house, and some small caves will appear on the ground. Anyone who stays here overnight will die here, leaving no trace of their skin or body.

However, the Taoist priest carefully checked the surrounding terrain, and finally, the two of them seemed to become a little excited, but still a little scared.

"This is it!"

At that time, Lao Huang heard the two people answer in unison.

"Then what are they looking for? Is it just the abandoned village?" I asked.

"Yes, people live there during the day, so at night...it won't be haunted, right?"

Dakui asked.

"No……"

Lao Huang narrowed his eyes slightly and continued, "At that time, I didn't know what they were looking for, but now I understand that maybe they didn't want me to go through this muddy water. That would be fatal!"

"Do you know where that village is now?" Huang continued to ask me.

Da Kui and I shook our heads.

"That's the current...Mushi Village!" Lao Huang said word by word.

"Our village! How is this possible?" I couldn't sit still anymore and kept asking Lao Huang what happened.

Lao Huang shook his head and just said that there was something unusual in the village, but... no one had seen it. Later, I heard from the Taoist priest that every plant and tree in the village must not be touched at all, otherwise disaster will be imminent.

Those were also the Taoist priest's last words before his death.

Grandpa finally chose to stay in Mushi Village until my birth, and finally his mysterious disappearance.

I asked Lao Huang why you left Mushi Village.

"because……"

Old Huang seemed to be breathing a little faster when he mentioned this. He had never seen him in such a state before, as if he was a mentally damaged person.
