A group of people were walking in the mountain forest, and the forest was overcast, when they suddenly heard the dissatisfaction of the people behind: "Why are you beating me?"

Everyone stopped to look at them. The speaker was a tall, strong man with a beard, glaring at the thin, pockmarked face behind him.

Pockmarked face shrank back a little fearfully: "I don't have one."

"What are you hiding from without you!" The beard glared at him, "Damn it, didn't it mean that my dog ​​frightened your cat yesterday, and you can hold grudges even for big things?!"

Pockmarked face: "No, no, conscience, I really didn't hit you."

The bearded man still looked at him, and Tang Bai in the back of the palace said, "Forget it, let's go."

The bearded man stopped, and the group of people continued to walk forward.

As a result, not long after, everyone heard a soft pop, as if a branch smashed through the air and hit a person.

The bearded man yelled, "Who hit me!"

Ruan Jia was speechless, turned around to look, and there was a red mark on the bearded arm, which was the mark of being pulled out by a tree branch.

This time, he directly grabbed Pocky Face by the collar: "You are still addicted to playing, aren't you!"

Pockmarked looked at him in horror, hesitating and speechless.

Ruan Jia whispered: "He doesn't look like someone who dares to do something."

Let alone for such a small matter.

Unless he is a cat slave, Ruan Jia is not sure when he thinks about it.

Ye San remained silent all this time, looking at those people without a word.

Ruan Jia followed his gaze, saw Tang Bai looking over, and smiled at the two of them, the smile was quite tacit.

What secret do these two people have!

Ruan Jia couldn't help but think of their conversation avoiding her, and suddenly felt itchy.

What the hell did they say?Isn't it about working hard to plant the land and have a good harvest before going out of the village together?

But it's not easy to ask now, because the bearded beard punched Mazi's face cursingly, and everyone rushed to persuade them to fight, stepping on the weeds and dead branches under their feet, rustling into a mess.

With this movement, the branches above the head suddenly sank, hitting everyone's faces and arms with a slap, drawing red marks one after another.

Everyone hurriedly raised their heads to look at the tree, and the branches were as calm as usual, so they let out an ooh; when they looked down at the person, they were whipped again, and they shouted in a hurry.

Just like that, I did it a few times, as if the grass and trees have become fine and are playing tricks on everyone.

Ruan Jia stood stunned and almost laughed out loud.

No branch hit him because Ye San was standing beside him.

Ruan Jia was able to observe the surroundings peacefully, and saw that the forest was lush and lush, with various shrubs and weeds below one meter above the ground, and countless branches above one meter, many of which had sharp thorns.In short, everything that comes into view is full of branches and leaves, without any gaps.

At this time, the branches moved again, and the shadowy buildings swayed non-stop, just a gust of mountain wind blew through the narrow gap, making a sharp sound like crying and laughing, Ruan Jia got goosebumps all over his body when he heard it, and he was also panicked stand up.

Ye San held his hand, Ruan Jia froze and shook him off.

He didn't dare to look at Ye San's expression. He only looked at the crowd. Sure enough, everyone's expressions were quite stiff. You looked at me and I looked at you. No one dared to move or make a sound, including the beard. up.

In the dead silence, only the mountain wind was still whistling, bringing out all kinds of strange sounds, which made everyone's hair stand on end. Finally, some people couldn't help it, turned around and ran down the mountain, but was caught by Tang in the back. Bai stopped.

Tang Bai's voice was flat: "What are you doing?"

The man hurriedly said: "What are you doing! There is a problem on the mountain, I want to go down the mountain!"

Tang Bai: "Aren't you going to get well salt? It's not far from the well."

The well passes underground, and there are countless ghosts and ghosts in the legend.It was fine if he didn't say anything, but when he said it, everyone's faces became even uglier.

The man from the Liu family swallowed: "Maybe the mountain ghost knew we were coming to pick salt, so they warned us in advance last night."

All of a sudden everyone started whispering, and Ruan Jia probably listened to it. They were all legends about the stove lady, weasel, or town house snake in the countryside. These ghosts are collectively called mountain ghosts. They all believe in the existence of mountain ghosts.

Ruan Jia found it novel at first, then found it ridiculous, and finally felt sorry for these trembling big men.

He sighed, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he stopped caring about the disputes among the people, but looked around, trying to find out who the pretender was.

But the light was dim, and the shadows of the trees were shaking, so it was really difficult to see the details of the branches.

In order to see more clearly, Ruan Jia got closer and closer to the branch unconsciously. As a result, the branch seemed to sense that someone was approaching, and threw it on Ruan Jia's face. Ruan Jia was startled, and while hiding, she reached out to grab The branch was grabbed by someone first.

"Be careful." Ye San said, before he could shake his hand, he let go of him first.

Among the group of distraught men, only Ruan Jia, Ye San and Tang Bai remained calm.It's just that Ye San is always aloof outside, Tang Bai is also well known for his calmness, but Ruan Jia, on the other hand, should be uneasy, but as a result, his calm group is particularly conspicuous.

But everyone was too busy to take care of themselves, and the only ones who noticed this were Ye San and Tang Bai.Ye San and he experienced the surprise attack by Butcher Yang, and knew that Ruan Jia was actually very courageous, especially in a critical moment, so he was not surprised by his reaction. In the end, only Tang Bai looked at Ruan Jia nonchalantly, and his heart was full of fear. Thoughtful.

Ruan Jia didn't pay attention, he just let out a slight sigh, stood on tiptoe and stretched out his hand to grab the long branch, and found a thin, brown-black hemp rope among the layers of leaves, The hemp rope is similar in color to the brown trunk, so you can't tell if you don't look carefully.

Sure enough, someone designed it, Ruan Jia thought.

What is this man's purpose?It can't just be scary, but it must have other plans.

Ruan Jia's expression became serious, and while everyone was clamoring, she looked along the surrounding tree trunks, and slowly saw something was wrong.

Almost all the branches around are wrapped with fine hemp ropes, and the fine hemp ropes are connected to each other, and the whole body is moved by a single hair.

In other words, if someone holds the hemp rope and shakes it, the whole forest will shake, creating the illusion that the gods and monsters are angry!

Who is this?Who is so bored?It's just like a naughty child teasing people!

Ruan Jia couldn't laugh or cry along the hemp rope all the way, only to see that the hemp rope gradually went from the top of the head to the ground, meandering, and finally arrived at...

In Tang Bai's hands? !

I saw him with his hands behind his back, calmly watching the crowd yelling, humming in comfort, and moving his hands, the branches made everyone howl in fright.

Ruan Jia: ...

At this moment, Tang Bai noticed his gaze, he was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and made a booing gesture at him.

Ruan Jia looked at him in bewilderment, then suddenly remembered something, and turned to look at Ye San, sure enough, Ye San had a bored expression on his face.

Ruan Jia couldn't hold back, and asked in a low voice, "You knew earlier? What is he doing?"

Ye San said succinctly: "Don't let them feel that this place is not suitable for long-term residence, how could they agree to leave the village?"

Ruan Jia was puzzled for a while, and then thought in disbelief: So you guys are making this idea!

Ruan Jia: "Everything is boring..."

Ye San showed an approving expression, the two looked at each other, and together they cast unspeakable glances at Tang Bai.

Tang Bai seemed to have forgotten Darwin, Mendel, and Einstein. He had a great time pretending to be a ghost, and everyone howled when he raised his hand, and howled again and again, like a symphony.

Just when Ruan Jia couldn't stand it anymore, the wind blew again in the mountains, it was a long humming sound, a bit like the sound of a tiger howling——

Wait a minute.

Ruan Jia's heart skipped a beat.

It's not like, that's really the sound of a tiger!

Ruan Jia thought she had run into a wild beast, and was about to tell everyone, but Ye San whispered, "Someone is coming."

people?Isn't it a tiger?
