The crowd shook their heads helplessly, helped him off his horse, and fed him some water and dry food. Chu Tianyue said, look at the head, this crying raccoon is still small, the crying raccoon is a creature with a very high IQ, and it lives in the deep mountains and old forests, so it generally has a long lifespan, and there are often jokes about the crying raccoon dog becoming a sperm. Let's be careful this time, since we have encountered one, it means that there is such a creature in the three mountains of Miaojiang. Be careful, don't hear the cry of the child and go to the rescue.

Ma Chengfeng shrugged his shoulders and said, you overestimate my compassionate heart.

Although there was no danger just now, but this was also a wake-up call for them, not only the poisonous insect miasma and the witch Gu of the Miao people in the three mountains of Miao Jiang, but even the small animals living in the mountains and forests were more ruthless than one evil. Everyone can only be extra careful, step by step, this time, no matter what abnormalities are nearby, they don't dare to come forward to check again.

The three mountains of Miaojiang are a very large area, and the Miaojiang in Xiangxi is enough to have a range of thousands of miles. Just by measuring your feet, you can't go anywhere if you walk overnight. The night passed very long, every minute passed like an hour, Ma Chengfeng and the eyeballs kicked so round that by four o'clock in the morning, their eyes couldn't open.

"Why does the sun come out so late in this Miao Mountain? It's not dawn yet? Na Xiu stretched his waist and ran up to ask Ma Chengfeng what area he had arrived at now.

Ma Chengfeng looked at the map, and judging from the situation of the forest he had just passed, they should have only walked a quarter of the way. Last night, I was frightened by the crying raccoon and didn't dare to go too fast. At this rate, it is estimated that it will take five or six days to find Bailing Laozhai, and then the dry food they brought will be eaten up.

The three horses were all old horses, and they were already a little tired from walking the mountain road for the night, and they were panting in their mouths and noses. Ma Chengfeng said that we may have to find a place to rest, even if we are not tired, the horse is tired. Besides, it is the height of summer, and the sun is very poisonous, so it is not advisable to rush during the day.

Na Xiu said that he didn't agree with anything. "Damn, you actually want to do beautiful things, this barren mountain and wilderness, there is not even a pavilion to shelter from the wind and rain? Could it be that you let us sleep in the bamboo forest? If you want to sleep on your own, I don't want to be swallowed by a wild beast. ”

"You two don't quarrel, it's endless along the way, I don't think we have to sleep in the wilderness, you see, there seems to be a family there on the mountainside ahead, let's try our luck?" Chu Tianyue pointed to the mountain, and followed the direction of her finger to see that there was indeed a faint smoke billowing from the mountainside, as if a family had gotten up early to cook.

Ma Chengfeng rubbed his eyes, a little incredulous, and compared the map again, he found that the map did not indicate that there was a Miao village here? But the Miao people or other ethnic minorities all live in groups in the mountains, how can there be such a single family? If that's the case, I'm afraid it's not ordinary people living inside. Ordinary people don't have the guts.

At the foot of the mountain is a line of stone steps, the stone steps are covered with moss, there is no footprint on the moss, Ma Chengfeng thought to himself, it seems that this family rarely goes down the mountain, has been living in the hut on the mountain and lives a secluded life, is it really a master of the world?

The mountainside is also a rustling bamboo forest, the depth of the bamboo forest is a mist, the bamboo forest is deep, you can't see the end at a glance, the dark green mountain gives people a mysterious feeling, want to explore, and am afraid that there are those poisonous insects and beasts hidden in it. Ma Chengfeng walked at the front, behind him was Chu Tianyue with an old man and a young man, and Na Xi led three old horses to walk at the end.

Ma Chengfeng had already walked up several steps, and when he looked back, he was still tugging on the reins at the bottom of the mountain. The three old horses didn't know what the wind was pumping, and no matter how hard they dragged them, they just didn't want to go up the mountain, and they kept neighing in their mouths, and they screamed like chickens.

"Oh, what are you doing with the three brutes? Anyway, the sky is going to dawn, and the big beasts in the mountains will not be haunting, so let's tie them down and graze. Ma Chengfeng didn't think much about it.

Ma Chengfeng took the old and the young to walk halfway up the mountain, and when he looked at it from a distance, he saw an antique courtyard on the halfway up the mountain. In people's impression, there are many stilted buildings in Xiangxi, and stilted buildings are generally either built by the mountains or by the water, and the stilted buildings are not only strong and insect-proof, but also very simple materials, which are the pillars in the mountains. But this old house is not a stilted building, but a courtyard, and there is a plaque hanging diagonally on the courtyard, and the plaque is big black.

I don't know how many years this old house has been, years of wind and rain have caused the big black plaque to fall, and the original line of text on it has been completely eroded, and I can't see what it is.

The courtyard is full of yellow withered bamboo leaves, and when the summer wind blows, the bamboo leaves rotate and move with the wind and are rolled up on the top of the head.

There was a well on the left side of the courtyard, which had long since dried up and was covered with cobwebs. Look at the old house inside, the door of the old house is facing west, this door is surprisingly large, two meters wide, and the rotten wood is full of holes left by moths. The rubble on the roof is also incomplete, and there is a dilapidated state everywhere, which does not look like a place to live.

Chu Tianyue stood in the courtyard, put down the mute child in her arms, and gently raised her nose and sniffed. "Does it taste weird? Why do you seem to smell it somewhere? ”

Ma Chengfeng said I don't think this is like a place to live, could it be the ancestral hall of the third sister of the Miao Jiang Gu God Lan that those horsewalkers said? Why is it so heavy with yin qi?

"Forget it, don't think about it, I'm afraid you can only find this place to rest within a radius of dozens of miles, since there is cooking smoke inside, it means that someone lives inside, after all, this is Miao Mountain, each ethnic group has its own culture, maybe people Miao people like this living environment, right? Take things as they come. Chu Tianyue shook her head.

Ma Chengfeng is a very cautious person, especially in an unfamiliar environment, and when he heard those who walked the horses say how terrible the Miao people were, he was mentally prepared. When he walked to the door, he picked up a short knife and was about to push the door.

"Huh? What are you doing? Shall we borrow it? Don't scare people, put them away quickly, the Miao people are not as terrible as you imagined, and they are not bandits? Besides, even if we are afraid, people are afraid of us, don't forget, we are intruders, why are you not polite at all? Let's go! Chu Tianyue dragged him behind him, tidied up his clothes, and changed his smiling face.

Dangdangdang...... She reached out her little hand and knocked lightly on the door three times.
