The owner of the restaurant knew Sonnier, and he said to the two people: "No one has mentioned Laogou for many years.
Why don't you ask this girl?
Her grandfather dug gold in Laogou before liberation.
Except for the land man, no one has ever mentioned it.
I heard that anyone can come back alive from Laogou."
The two men immediately came over to get close to us and asked us about Laogou.
They also said that they were willing to pay a large sum of money if Sonnier could act as a guide and lead the way into Laogou.
There is a large area of ancient wetland and swamp in the Nuomin River Basin of Hailar River in Inner Mongolia.
There are mountains to the northwest, virgin forests to the east, and grasslands to the south.
There are no human habitations for hundreds of miles.
The two rivers are winding and bifurcating.
Due to the low-lying terrain , the water flow stagnated to form a swamp, and the water plants that have grown for countless years are intertwined.
Between these meadows, there is bottomless black silt.
When walking on the barren meadow, one must step on the roots of the grass, and one step will be careless. stuck in quagmire , if no one comes to rescue, it will sink deeper and deeper, and even be swallowed up by the mire.
Since ancient times, humans and animals have become extinct.
It is said that there is a rock ditch deep in the swamp, and there is an ancient cave in the ditch.
Many people in old age took risks and listened to the rumors.
Risking your life to find it in a ditch Gold veins almost never come back.
Even if they don't fall into the swamp, they will be eaten by local ghosts when they go down to the cave.
A place name spreads in the mouths of gold seekers, calling that place Laojingou.
Also known as Laogou, no one dares to go there.
Sonnier heard that the two wanted to go to Laogou, but they didn't look like gold diggers.
Moreover, the gold vein was just a rumor, so she asked: "What are you two doing in Laogou?"
The two of them were headed by a Taoist who was in his forties and under fifty.
There were generally two types of Taoist priests.
One type lived in Taoist temples all year round, wore Taoist robes, practiced Qi and sought truth, and were the more common Taoist priests.
Most Taoist priests belong to the Quanzhen sect, and there is also a kind of clothing and Like ordinary people, they rarely wear Taoist robes.
They can marry and have children, but they also have road talismans, catch ghosts and eliminate monsters, draw talismans, read incantations, read fortune-telling, read Feng Shui and other superstitious activities.
They belong to the Zhengyi sect.
According to the customs of Northeastern folk, such The Taoist priests are called "Er Taoists".
The second Taoist priest refused to tell the truth at first, claiming that his ancestor had told him to go to Laogou to deal with a zombie. , he only told the truth when there was no one around.
In fact, he had the ancestral trick of drawing talismans to drive away ghosts. , now he couldn't scare people anymore, so he changed his profession by digging tombs and robbing tombs because of his knowledge of Feng Shui.
He heard that there were murals in the cave under Laogou, and he identified the ancient tombs in that place.
He wanted to bet a fortune and make a big trip.
The person who came with him was named Zhang Juwa.
He was originally an orphan on the grassland.
When his parents were in the wolf disaster in the Great Northern Wilderness, Unfortunately, he died, leaving him alone.
He was later adopted by the Corps.
He weighed ten pounds when he was born, and had thick eyebrows and big eyes, so he was nicknamed "Giant Baby".
The family who adopted him changed his surname to Zhang.
In his early years, he is physically strong and a head and a half taller than ordinary people.
After being accepted as apprentices, the two of them wanted to find a guide to lead the way through the swamps and meadows to Laogou to rob tombs and retrieve treasures.
In this place where the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, it is possible to rely on the mountains to eat, to eat on the water, to dig for gold, tombs and to hunt.
Although it is a semi-public affair, it is hard to talk about it, but in front of the locals, there is no need to hide it.
The second old Taoist stretched out a finger and said to me and Sonnier: "Old brother, eldest girl, I have given up to you both to tell you the truth.
Free novels bring you joy and joy ---> storyskyline.net
I will never be a loss to you.
Take me to Laogou and give it to you after the matter is completed."
Let’s have a good time with this number.
In one sentence, it’s okay or not.”
Sonnier has always had her own opinion.
After hearing that the old man was willing to give a big number, she agreed after thinking for a while.
She said that the season of heavy rains and flash floods had just passed, and entering the swamp that eats people without spitting out their bones would be a narrow escape.
She must be sure beforehand.
To make complete preparations, let Erlaodao and Zhang Juwa buy dry food and mugwort, and meet at the third loop of the Nuomin River on the sixteenth day of the seventh lunar month.
After the two people left, Sonnier told me not to let the Tudou know about this matter.
It was getting harder and harder to find gold veins.
She wanted to make more money and not let the Tudou go into the mountains to dig gold in the future. .
I said: "I'm not worried about other things, but I think Erlaodao is just a stick.
He is nothing more than a stinky thief who has dug out a few old tombs.
It's strange that he was able to find the ancient tombs in two seconds.
The wild animals in Laogou are difficult to find."
Going in, there can be ancient tombs from any dynasty and I have never heard of ancient tombs in Laogou.
I only know that there are man-eating local ghosts
