Robbery

It was raining heavily, and Chongyulou turned out an oil-paper umbrella for himself and Shi Dao. They walked on the path between the mountains, and the place was deserted, and Chongyulou didn't ask Shidao why he came here. , because Shi Dao probably doesn't explain it.

On their way up the mountain, Chongyu Building saw a small courtyard with only one thatched house, which looked dilapidated.

Shi Dao walked towards the hut, and when he got closer, Chongyulou realized that there seemed to be a monster around the room.

"Dong dong dong——" After Shi Dao knocked on the door, it took a while for someone to open the door. It was a hunchbacked old man with his hair wrapped in a cloth.

"Hiding from the rain?" the old man asked in his broken voice.

"Yes." Chongyulou said.

The old man stepped aside and let them in. The room was quite warm, but there were not only the old man, but also a hunter and a woman holding a child. They were soaked and seemed to be hiding from the rain.

There are four chairs in the room. The old man is standing in a big pot, as if he is boiling water. After Chongyulou and Shidao sat down, the old man filled the pot of water for them to drink. There was a strong smell of seasoning, it turned out to be soup, but this soup was quite strong, he put down the bowl, but Shi Dao didn't touch it at all.

The soup was bubbling and bubbling, the room seemed to be still, and no one spoke, until there was another knock on the door, the sound of heavy rain outside, and the sound of boiling soup inside, but there was another knock on the door, It was so piercing, Chong Yulou wondered if it was the same when he and Shi Dao knocked on the door just now.

No one sitting got up to open the door, only the old man standing walked over and opened the door step by step.

"Hello, I want to borrow your place to hide from the rain." The voice was that of a young man, and it sounded energetic, and I didn't want the room to be so lifeless.

The old man stepped aside and walked in a man dressed in a green shirt and dressed as a scholar. He looked young and looked good, but his expression was a little frivolous. As soon as he came in, he saw that the chairs were full, and then walked to the heavy rain Lou's side said: "Brother, can you move a little bit for me?"

Chongyulou didn't think much, moved outside, and the scholar introduced himself after sitting down.

"I'm Qin Keyi, it's fate to meet my brother after traveling here." Qin Keyi said.

Chongyulou said: "There are so many people in this room, it is indeed fate that you can meet each other."

"Isn't it true that you have met someone else?" The scholar said with a smile.

Chongyulou didn't want to talk to him, for some reason, he wanted to sleep in this room.

The old man gave Qin Keyi a bowl of soup as usual, Qin Keyi put down the soup and said to the old man, "This soup tastes too strong, do you want braised pork?"

The old man glanced at him and continued to stir the soup with a spoon: "The old man has a heavy mouth, forgive me."

Chong Yulou said: "It would be nice to have soup on a rainy day, but you are still so picky."

Qin Keyi said: "Brother Chong, I don't understand. You have to be kind to yourself in just a few decades."

Chongyulou didn't want to answer his words. At this time, Qin Keyi talked about what he had seen in his travels. It's normal to be in meditation, and it's not easy to disturb Chongyulou, so I can only pray that the scholar can say a few words less.

But in such a situation, it was the Orion who couldn't help it first. The sluggish Orion suddenly slapped the table, pointed at Qin Keyi and said, "Can you shut up? An old man is like an eighth woman."

Qin Keyi snorted coldly: "Vulgar, really vulgar, this is not your house, and you are not my father, what kind of business are you meddling in?"

The quarrel between the two woke up the child in the woman's arms. The child started crying, and the woman began to coax the child, but the child couldn't stop crying, and then the woman began to curse: "Why are you crying, cry again? I threw you to the dogs."

Chongyulou glanced at the woman, only to find that she was still wearing a mourning dress inside her clothes, and the band on her head was also white. It seemed that someone died at home, but the room was too dark, so he didn't notice it at first.

The originally quiet atmosphere suddenly became noisy. They were emotionally agitated. While Orion was arguing, he was still touching his knife, as if he was about to commit suicide at any time. The woman's expression became more and more helpless. She looked at the big mouth Looking at the distressed child in his hand, he and Shi Dao appeared in it, only the old man was cooking the soup quietly.

Chongyulou walked over and said to the old man: "They are too annoying to quarrel, why don't you drive them out?"

The old man looked up at him and said, "Really, the old man has bad ears."

After finishing speaking, he lowered his head again. With just a glance, Chongyulou found that the old man's eyes were very bright, and he didn't look like a half-buried person at all.

"That woman, she killed her husband, that hunter, just threw her seriously ill old mother into the mountains, as for that scholar, cheated in the examination room, and blamed others, as for you, it seems that you have done a big thing, what a pity I can't see it." The old man's words were like thunder, Chongyulou's heart skipped a beat, one hand was put behind his back, and Lianpo appeared in his hand.

No one knows what he has done, what he did is really a big thing, maybe this old man knows.Because of the old man's words, Chongyulou became murderous, but at this moment, the woman rushed over and threw her child into the pot.

Chong Yulou was shocked, and immediately hugged the child who was almost in the pot, and then he saw the old man disappearing into the dark, the firelight could only illuminate his lips, his lips were raised upwards, as if he was smiling.

This shocked Chongyulou, he shivered, the woman next to him saw that the child was still alive, so he went crazy to snatch the child, and the Orion had already picked up the knife to kill the scholar, Chongyulou threw Liapao In the past, he opened the knife that cut at the scholar.

"Shi Dao!" Knowing that the situation was out of control, Chong Yu Lou asked Shi Dao for help.

Shi Dao opened his eyes, as if a strong air current swept past, the scholar and Orion paused, then passed out on the ground, the woman also passed out, the child stopped crying and fell asleep again.

The old man came out from the dark, he gradually became taller and younger, and when he walked to the light, Chongyulou discovered that he had a young and handsome skin.

"You will be punished by the gods if you break the way of eating people." The old man, no, it should be a demon.

"Where is the mountain god?" Shi Dao suddenly asked.

The male demon looked serious, looking at Shi Dao with a murderous look in his eyes, Chong Yu Lou stood behind Shi Dao with the child in his arms, who knew that the demon smiled, then waved the cauldron and flew towards them, Shi Dao used his strength to hold the pot in place, and the water didn't rush out at all, but at this time, the male demon had disappeared.

At this time, Chongyulou lowered his head and realized that what he was holding in his hand was the skeleton of a child. He threw it on the ground in fright, and then looked at the woman and Orion, it was also a skeleton, even the stove There are piles of human bones of various sizes all around, only the scholar is alive.

"What's going on?" Chongyulou looked at Shi with a pale face.

Shi Dao said: "The demon's name is Grandpa Shan, he can read people's hearts, he likes to eat people, and he has a beautiful appearance."

"So these are the bones left over from what he ate?" Chong Yulou retched a bit after he finished speaking. If he and Shi Dao hadn't come this time, then the Shan Lao Lord's prey was only the scholar. As for why he didn't find these The real face of a person is probably the problem of that soup.

Chongyulou woke up the scholar, who looked at the ground and ran outside in horror. It was no longer raining, but it was still gloomy.

When Shi Dao and Chong Yulou came out, the scholar asked, "Who are you?"

"A Taoist who passed by here." Chongyulou said.

The scholar bowed to them and said, "I'm Li Yuan, let me take my leave first."

Chongyulou stopped him: "You wait."

Li Yuan stared at him strangely, Chong Yulou said: "Isn't your name Qin Keyi?"

"Who is that?" Li Yuan asked strangely.

Chongyulou was startled, and thought of what Grandpa Shan said, so he asked, "Are you cheating in the scientific examination and blaming others?"

When Li Yuan heard this, his face turned pale, and he stumbled away. Chongyulou looked at Shi and said, "It seems that someone else has sneaked in."
