Another day passed, and now everyone finally guessed that something might have happened.

I went to the mountains all night and didn't come back. I was afraid that I encountered some danger or injured my legs and feet, so I couldn't come back in time.

This farmer's family was also very kind-hearted. They quickly found a few familiar villagers and chased them along the road towards the mountain.

Naturally, there was no one on the road, so everyone had to spread out and look for it. As they were looking, they heard someone scream in horror. Everyone rushed over and found a rope hanging from a thick branch, and a person was hanging on the rope.

Looking closely, it was not the scholar.

Naturally, this matter had to be reported to the Yamen again.

After all, it would be very fatal for a soldier to die here.

Although Kejuren, who only came to participate in the scientific examination, can be considered a master, he is different from ordinary people like them, and every one of them is recorded.

The Yamen also took this matter very seriously and hurriedly went up the mountain to carry the body down. After an autopsy, they found that the man was hanged and there were no signs of murder.

It's just that I've always done well, I've always been in a good mood, and I've been reading well.

The county master also specially asked the farmer to pack up the books and articles that Juzi had recently written and send them over. After reading them, he found that this man was quite talented. Although he may not be able to enter the first class, he would definitely be included in the second class.

How could such a person who was originally focused on studying and waiting for the imperial examination suddenly hang himself when the examination is about to take place?

Those who said that he had no hope of studying and therefore chose to die are even more nonsense.

Although there was no evidence in this case, the county magistrate still did not believe that he had committed suicide by hanging and could only suppress it.

But in the autumn of that year, the hunters in these villages collectively went crazy.

They originally agreed to go hunting together in the mountains, but they were not seen coming down the mountain for several days.

It is common for hunters to go up to the mountain and stay for a few days. But for their mountain, it is not big and there is no need to stay for so many days. After all, there is no big prey at all.

No matter how much you want to keep an eye on the prey, if there are so many people going up the mountain together, one of them can always come down the mountain. Can you inform the families of each family?

But unfortunately no one came down.

This is already the third strange thing that has happened on this mountain, and it's all happened this year, so everyone was a little panicked and organized people to search the mountain again.

When they reached the mountainside, they discovered something strange. There were scattered clothes on the ground.

After identification, they found that the clothes belonged to these hunters.

They originally thought they had encountered some wild beast that tore their clothes apart, but after careful inspection, they found that the clothes were all intact, more like they had taken them off and thrown them here.

Everyone searched for the scattered clothes on the ground step by step, and finally found everyone's bodies.

These tough men in the past were now lying naked on the ground, some prone on the ground and some on their backs.

But without exception they all died.

Everyone exclaimed, and then many people burst into tears. This case is not a small one. A dozen men were lost like this, which means that a dozen or more families may have been broken up.

These men are the backbone of the family. Now that they are dead, how will their wives and children survive this winter?

Because this case is really bizarre. Even if someone said that this was suicide, they would probably be ridiculed immediately and left.

Because a group of men gathered together and committed suicide in a naked mass, which is really unbelievable. Even ignorant children cannot believe that this is suicide.

Because there are frequent murders in this place, and the deaths are all mysterious, the murderer has not been found so far.

The county magistrate finally handed in his resignation and returned home because he felt that he was really incompetent.

After this incident came out, the hunters in the village either remarried or returned to their parents' families, and they all dispersed one by one.

Even those others who had some ways to go elsewhere also left.

After all, if you stay here any longer, who knows if you will be the next to die?

It has been many years since this incident, and everyone has forgotten what exactly happened?

It’s just that generation after generation they tell their children not to go to the mountain over there.

This incident is said to have happened in the previous dynasty, but there has never been another murder in this dynasty, at least no one reported it.

The child's parents only accidentally remembered the words passed down by their ancestors after Long Baoer and the others had established their fiefdom.

In fact, everyone is a little skeptical about what happened back then. After all, it happened hundreds of years ago. Who knows whether it is true or false?

Besides, if someone dies for no reason, there must be some reason. Everyone speculates that there may be some gangsters who take advantage of the evil reputation here to tie up enemies or people to the mountains and kill them.

As for the dozen big men who died naked on the top of the mountain, who saw it?

Therefore, these things have long become legends, and they should be told as ghost stories to children, lest they disobey and run to the mountains by themselves.

Although the horrific things have long been forgotten after hundreds of years, the children in these villages still remember these words.

For generations, they have been chopping firewood, cutting wild vegetables and picking mushrooms on the low mountains on both sides. As for the largest mountain behind Longbaoer Villa, they just stay at the foot of the mountain and rarely go up.

This time it was also because the Xue brothers said they wanted to go up the mountain to play, and these children happened to come over to play with Long Bao and the others, so we all went up together. The children didn't think much about it, and Long Baoer and the others didn't even know about these legends. They all went up the mountain together in confusion.

Knowing these things at this time, everyone looked at each other. Xiao Qi was so scared that his voice trembled, and the arms holding his sixth brother were trembling, "Brother Liuliu, is there really a ghost here?"

Lao Liu slapped Xiao Qi's hand off, disgusted, "Why do you stutter too? Are you laughing at Fifth Brother?"

Xiao Qi felt even more aggrieved, "I didn't..."

"Besides, what's so scary about ghosts? Aren't Osmanthus fragrans and the little princess ghosts? Are you afraid?"

Xiao Qi was stunned by Lao Liu's words, then he scratched his head and said with a smile, "That's right."
