Chapter 223 Chapter 58: Worshiping the Moon

There is no road leading directly to the back of the mountain.We can only park the car to the front of the mountain, and then hike over the mountain. According to the shortcut pointed by the old Niutou, the car passed through a barren hillock and bumped along the rugged dirt road, and finally reached the foot of the mountain. Just after noon, the scorching sun was in the sky, and there was no shelter on the mountain. Anyway, there was still enough time, so there was no rush.Why not take a break in the car first, build up your energy, and fill your stomach with something, and it will not be too late to climb the mountain when the sun is westward.

After eating some bread and drinking some water, we all found a more comfortable position and leaned on the backrest, closing our eyes and resting our minds. During this period of time, day and night, I was exhausted from tossing around, and after a short time, I heard the breathing of Big Ya and Liu Ye became more and more heavy, obviously falling asleep.Listening to the sound of insects outside the car screaming weakly for a while, then stopping for a while, it was like a lullaby.My brain started to slow down, my consciousness became more and more blurred, and soon I fell asleep. I don't know how long I slept, but when I opened my eyes, it was already dark.I rubbed my eyes, rubbed my face, and finally became more awake.I found that Da Ya and Liu Ye were not in the car anymore, probably after waking up, they got out of the car to get some air without calling me.

I opened the car door and looked around.The moonlight was shining brightly, and the field of vision was very good. I soon saw two people standing at the foot of the mountain not far away. Although their backs were facing me, they looked like Da Ya and Liu Ye. I took a few steps forward, and seeing that it was getting closer, I gave a soft yell to Da Ya.I don't know if Da Ya deliberately pretended not to hear me, and simply ignored me. I cursed inwardly, Daheitian didn't know what kind of kid he was pretending to be here, and he didn't answer his bark.When he got closer, he was about to pat Da Ya on the shoulder when he suddenly realized that something was not quite right.I walked from behind them, it is impossible for them not to hear my footsteps, if Da Ya deliberately pretended not to hear, why would Liu Ye act as if she didn't know, and didn't even turn her head?

I was suspicious in my heart, and slowly put down my hand that was in the air.Carefully walked around to them. When I looked up, I was stunned.I saw Da Ya and Liu Ye raised their heads, stared at the moon in the sky, clasped their hands together in a bow-style and held them in front of their chests, their expressions were focused and their eyes were dull, as if they didn't see me if they didn't. It was obvious that they were not You're teasing me on purpose. I followed their eyes and looked up. There was a full moon hanging high in the sky, as bright as silver, and there was nothing unusual about it.

As soon as I was about to speak, I suddenly realized that the world seemed to be soaked in blood, and my eyes were bright red, which was shockingly red.I quickly raised my head, only to realize that the moon, which was still fine just now, suddenly turned bright red, strangely red, with something like blood flowing inside, which made my scalp numb.In a cold sweat. I hurriedly called Da Ya and Liu Ye, but Da Ya and Liu Ye ignored me at all. They closed their eyes slowly, tilted their heads back forcefully, and then slowly opened their mouths. It was so big that it was so weird, seeing streams of red things coming out of my mouth, moving and moving, I was so scared that I was shocked, and when I closed my eyes, I screamed involuntarily.

When I opened my eyes again, I saw Big Tooth and Liu Ye staring at me. I was so frightened that I hurriedly hid, but my back seemed to be blocked by something, and I couldn’t move. I hurriedly looked back, Only then did I realize that I was still in the car. Seeing me like this, Da Ya and Liu Ye were a little puzzled for a while, and looked at me blankly. Da Ya patted my head twice, staring at me and asking me: "Hey, did you hit something evil? What are you yelling for? I slept soundly, but you woke me up. Did you do it on purpose?" I didn't speak, I turned my head and looked out the window, it was just getting dark.I looked at my watch and saw that I had just slept for less than an hour.Suddenly, I realized that I was dreaming just now.However, when I think of the scene in the dream, I feel uncomfortable all over my body as if being pricked by a needle, especially the blood-red moon. I feel a little terrified when I think about it. I don’t know why I had such a nightmare for no reason.

Liu Ye saw that my expression changed suddenly, she didn't seem to be faking it, and guessed the reason, she asked me softly what's wrong, did I have a nightmare? I glanced at Liu Ye, nodded, and told her and Da Ya what I saw in my dream. After Da Ya listened to it, he was happy instead. He looked at Liu Ye and then at me, saying that I think about it every day and dream at night. Seeing that Liu Ye and I didn't quite understand, I spit and explained that from a psychological point of view, I was in a psychological crisis, and that's why I dreamed that he and Liu Ye were praying to heaven and earth. In fact, I had such thoughts in my heart. I dare not express it.That's why I reflected this mentality in my dream...

Liu Ye's face changed when she heard this, and she gave Da Ya a sharp "Bah", warning Da Ya that if she continued to talk nonsense, she would not be polite. Big Tooth grinned, sighed, squeezed his eyes out at me, and didn't dare to speak. Letting Da Ya make jokes, I can't say any more. Seeing that it was already dark outside, I hurriedly asked Da Ya and Liu Ye to pack their things.Hurry up the hill. It's the full moon, and the vision at night is very good. You can see that it is one or two hundred meters away, and you don't need to turn on the flashlight. Glancing at the mountain bag which is not very high, we tightened our shoelaces and tucked our trouser legs into the socks. After the self-defense guys were ready, I took the lead, with willow leaves in the middle and big teeth at the end. climb up.

This kind of mountain is incomparable with those of Erlong Lake. In fact, it is just a Dao mountain. The slope is not steep, and the altitude is not high. The body leans forward slightly, and it is almost possible to walk straight up. At night, the night wind is blowing, and the shadows of the moon are stacked on top of the peaks. Stepping on the moonlight, listening to the croaking of insects and frogs, it has a special feeling, but now, we don’t put our minds on it, and we are in a hurry, and we don’t have this leisurely feeling at all. . I walked halfway up the mountain in one breath, looked up and saw that it was not too far away, so I turned around to greet Big Ya and Liu Ye, sat down and rested together, and then climbed directly to the top of the mountain in one breath.But as soon as I turned around, I caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of my eye, and something was wrong.I quickly took a closer look, and found that there was something standing straight on a huge rock more than 20 meters in front of me, with a long shadow drawn out, if it wasn't for the sudden movement just now After a while, I didn't even notice that there would be a living thing.

I hurriedly waved my hand back, signaling Big Ya and Liu Ye to stop quickly.Then he hid behind a pile of grass with a cat waist.Da Ya and Liu Ye were confused and didn't ask any more questions. They quickly squatted down and looked forward. Obviously they didn't notice the thing on the stone, and asked me what happened in a low voice with some doubts. I was almost lying on the ground, and under the cover of the grass, I carefully pointed forward with my hand, and told them in a low voice that I don't know what was squatting on the rock in front. After I finished speaking, I parted the grass, and Big Tooth and Liu Ye also stretched their necks to look over.

The protruding big stone is the size of a tabletop, with a smooth and flat surface. By the moonlight, I could see clearly, and I saw that the thing standing on it was about a foot high, its whole body was fluffy, its neck and limbs were short, and its tail was so short that it was almost invisible.There are white hairs around the eye sockets, and the small mouth is pointed forward. At first glance, it looks like a big mouse. Da Ya glanced at it, shrunk his neck, squatted down and grinned and told us that it was a bean mouse, but it was a bit big, not much smaller than a cat, and it must have become a sperm. Not to mention, if the figure is reduced by half, the features are really a bit like a bean mouse, but the proportion of the head is too large, so I don't recognize it.The giant rat only supports its whole body with its two hind legs, standing straight on the stone, arching its two front paws, as if a person is making a bow, looking up at the moon. Seeing this posture, my head immediately "buzzed", this posture is so familiar, it is exactly the same as the posture of Big Tooth and Liu Ye in the dream, they are all looking up at the moon.I still can't figure it out, it's a little strange, but now I see this bean mouse, I suddenly understand it. In the dream, Da Ya and Liu Ye were not worshiping the heaven and earth as Da Ya said, but just like the bean mouse, they were "worshiping the moon". There are many bean mice in the millet or bean fields. During the day, they often stand on their hind legs and make bows with their front legs, looking at the sun. Since I was a child, I heard from the old people in the village that this thing worships the sun and the moon at night, and it is a kind of animal with spiritual energy and Taoism.However, it is very difficult to practice this way. It takes thousands of years of practice to achieve the right result. You can become a human being or a fairy.It is up to the person to decide whether to transform into a human or an immortal. If you say it looks like a human, you will become a human; if you say that it looks like a god, you will become a fairy. It is said that when the bean mouse has achieved a positive result, he will stop the passers-by, and then spit out people's words, and ask you: "Do you think I look like a man, like a god?" If you answer "like a human", it will become a human; if you answer "like a god", it will become a fairy; and if you don't answer, it will entangle you.Whether this is true or not is widely spread in the countryside, and there is no basis for it. No one can tell, but it is certain that this kind of thing is the same as the yellow leather, and it is not easy to mess with! Liu Ye didn't know much about this thing, so she asked Da Ya what it was and why it looked so weird. Da Ya smiled wryly, and then told Liu Ye all these strange things about Bean Mouse. To Liu Ye, the story was similar to the Arabian Nights. The bean mouse kept shaking its head. I pressed my hands down and said in a low voice, "It doesn't matter whether this thing is true or not, but it must be something with Taoism and aura. There is no need to discuss it now, let's walk around it, don't fight with this When something touches head-on, don’t let the fox miss it, and cause a whole body of trouble, we can’t afford it, let’s hide!” Da Ya snorted next to me, and said to me: "Lai Liang, you were bitten by a snake once, you were afraid of well ropes for ten years, and even a bean mouse scared you out of your pulse. We had more than this thing when we were young." Irrigate it once with water, what's the ability, don't let the grass and trees become soldiers, it looks like how capable it is, look at me." After finishing speaking, he picked up a stone from his side, glanced at it, and threw it out with a "whoosh". At this moment, I tried to stop it, but I couldn't. I saw that stone, with the sound of the wind, drawing an arc, rushing towards the bean mouse and smashing it. The stone was still in the air, and the bean mouse seemed to feel it. It shook violently, turned its head as if listening, then twisted its waist, jumped off the boulder with a "swoosh", and disappeared in the blink of an eye. The stone hit the rock with a "slap". Da Ya chuckled, and curled his lips at Liu Ye and me: "How is it? Is our flying scorpion stone good at hitting? I dare not say that every shot hits every shot, but I have to say that it is almost inseparable, and there are no misses in the shot! " I ignored him lazily, jumped up from the grass, trotted to the front of the rock, turned on the flashlight and looked around, and the bean mouse had long since disappeared. Big Ya and Liu Ye also ran over after me.Liu Ye was a little restless, probably still thinking about the story we told, a little worried, her eyes were wandering, looking around.On the other hand, Da Ya became calmer and calmer, looked around carelessly, and curled his lips at me, as if he was sleeping, he was very proud. Although the bean mouse was scared away by Da Ya, I always felt a little flustered, as if it hadn't gone far at all, and was just staring at us from some shadow, feeling uncomfortable all over. With this incident, we dare not delay any longer, and hurry up to get on the road and move on.
