Savage Secret

() On the second day, Du Lin had a very uneasy life. He always felt that there was a pair of eyes staring at him. Behind those eyes was a furry and evil white strange face. , he was just a little unsteady, but with the rise of the round moon in the sky, the surroundings became darker and more hazy, Du Lin was finally defeated by this darkness first, the more he thought about it, The more frightened I was, I finally made up my mind to pack up my things and go back to the village to hide for a few days.

Du Lin lived alone in the mountains, and usually went home once a month or so. For convenience, when he came, he only had a few clothes and some daily necessities, nothing at all.He packed all these things in his bag and carried them on his back, and when he was about to leave, he thought of the ghost book again. Although he didn't know whether this thing could bring him wealth, it belonged to educated people after all. Things, Du Lin thought, stuffed the book of ghost charms into his arms, and walked towards the door with a long-handled hunting knife.

The moment Du Lin walked to the door, the door was suddenly knocked open, and a black monster rushed towards him with a loud "Hoo!"Du Lin quickly bent his body, the black monster stuck to his head, hit the wooden wall behind, and fell to the ground with a "crash", scattered into a pile.Du Lin looked at the black monster, it was okay not to look at it, but when he saw it, he almost died of nausea. This stinking black monster turned out to be the old man he buried with his own hands two days ago.After these two days, part of the old man's skin had begun to rot. There was a piece of flesh missing from his face, and a piece was missing there, exposing the white bones underneath, and the clothes on his body were gone. The contents of the stomach, after such a fall, the intestines and viscera immediately flowed everywhere, and the room was filled with the stench of corpses.Du Lin was disgusted, and cold sweat broke out on the hand holding the long-handled hunting knife. His body trembled, his terrified eyes opened like copper bells, he shouted loudly, and rushed out of the house.

Du Lin's eyes widened, he held the long-handled hunting knife high, and looked around carefully, for fear that the white-haired giant ape would play any tricks again.It wasn't until he was sure that there was nothing unusual around the wooden house that Du Lin pulled himself together and strode like a frightened bird or a fish slipping through the net, and ran wildly for his life. At this moment, he really hated his parents for not giving him two extra legs.

The strange thing is that Du Lin ran for more than ten miles, until he ran to the pine and bamboo forest on the edge of the village, but he didn't see the white-haired giant ape.Looking at the dark pine and bamboo forest, Du Lin let out a long breath. This pine and bamboo forest is only two or three miles away from the stockade where Du Lin lived.However, Du Lin didn't dare to be careless. He couldn't stop looking at the treetops and the two sides, for fear that the white-haired giant ape would suddenly come out from somewhere.

Suddenly, Du Lin saw a man in front of him bending over and hurrying on his way. Through the dim moonlight above his head, he vaguely saw that the man had a strong figure and a slightly wider figure. The color of his clothes was unclear, and his head looked like He was wearing something, his head was tightly covered, and a white belt was wrapped around his waist.

Du Lin, who lives in the mountains, rarely meets a few people, so when he sees people, he always feels very kind.This is even more the case now. After being tossed by the white-haired giant ape for the past few days, he was in a panic. When he saw someone who was driving at night, he immediately rushed towards that person, hoping to find a companion to talk to. In this way, Walking on the road will not be so frightening.

"Fellow, fellow, wait for me!" Du Lin looked back and yelled at the man. The man didn't seem to hear Du Lin's yelling, and he didn't look back, but just walked forward on his own.

In the mountains and forests of Shennongjia, there are many legends: If you are driving at night, no matter who is calling behind you, no matter how kind and pleasant the voice is, you cannot answer, let alone turn back.Because it may be something like a ghost in the mountains or a beast or a wolf that changes at night to confuse people. Once you answer or turn around, you will involuntarily follow that thing and be taken by them to a place full of bones and blood. In the abyss...

Such legends are not necessarily deceptive, on the contrary, they all have certain basis, because parrots, starlings and other birds can imitate human speech, and no one can guarantee that other ferocious beasts do not have this ability.There are many stories in Shennongjia: some clever monsters can imitate human beings to make sounds, cry, laugh, and talk. people eat.In fact, many animals are smart: crows know how to make simple production tools and use tools. Someone once saw a crow throw a walnut on the road in order to eat a walnut, and wait for the car to crush the walnut , and then run down to eat when there is less traffic, and some people have observed that crows will bend the thin wire into a hook shape to hook out the bugs hiding in the tree.Not only crows, but also recognized cold-blooded fishes have wisdom. When we often fish in a water area, we will find that the fish there are getting more and more difficult to catch. In fact, it is not that there are fewer fish, but that the fish have learned to be smarter.In addition, the wisdom of mice can be inherited, and donkeys will not fall twice in the same place, etc. These things prove that the animals that live with us all have superb intelligence, but some are ignored by us, and some are exaggerated by us. .

Seeing that the person walking in front ignored him, Du Lin didn't think much about it, thinking that the person was avoiding taboo, so he quickened his pace and ran forward.Just when Du Lin was one step away from the man, the man suddenly turned his head, and a hideous grimace with white hair appeared in front of Du Lin, and Du Lin almost bumped into this face .

The face in front of Du Lin was only the size of a bowl, covered with white hair, protruding forehead, deep-set eye sockets, protruding nostrils, big thick and wide lips, and fierce and cunning red light shining in the small eyes. It was the white-haired giant ape.The white-haired giant ape was wearing the old man's clothes that Du Lin buried. It didn't have a white belt around its waist, but the clothes were too small to cover the white hair on its waist.

"Ah!" Du Lin screamed, the hairs all over his body stood up, his body trembled and his hands softened, and the long-handled hunting knife fell to the ground

Enemies met each other and were extremely jealous. At such a close distance, the two sharp claws of the white-haired giant ape grabbed Du Lin's shoulders. The sharp nails were like sharp knives, piercing deeply into Du Lin's flesh, causing pain. The old Du Lin almost didn't have the strength to call out, so he had to let the white-haired giant ape toss about.The white-haired giant ape bared its teeth at the struggling Du Lin, and immediately there was a stench between the black and yellow teeth in its mouth. Coupled with the strong smell of corpses on the old man's clothes, Du Lin I could hardly breathe.

The white-haired giant ape roared, lifted Du Lin, slammed it onto a huge boulder next to it, jumped over, and scratched him hard on the face.Du Lin felt as if he had been hit by a stone on the head. There was a "buzz" in his head, and it was blurry. He also felt his face was burning hot. After the burn, he felt a heart-piercing pain, as if half of his face had been torn off. Same, and then passed out from the pain.

The white-haired giant ape looked up to the sky and laughed a few times, bent down and grabbed the burden on Du Lin's body, jumped on his body and ran towards the mountain.

Half a day later, Du Lin woke up and felt that his head was not so dizzy, and his body was not so painful. He hurriedly struggled to get up, and walked home staggeringly.When he arrived at home, the family members hardly dared to recognize him. His white and fleshy face was turned outwards, he looked horrifying, blood was flowing all over his body, like a monster that had just crawled out of a pile of dead people .His son took one look, screamed, and ran back into the room. With a bang, he closed the door tightly and ignored him any more.

Fortunately, Du Lin's wife was a little more courageous. She dragged Du Lin into the house as a woman, and then went out to ask the neighbors to come and help.Seeing Du Lin's half-dead state, many people didn't dare to go forward. In the end, the old witch doctor from the village came to clean up Du Lin's wound and gave him some herbal medicine. Only then did Du Lin save his old life.

Du Lin woke up after being in a coma for three days. After waking up, he didn't say anything, but stared at the black beams of the roof in a daze. Shouting: "The mountain god, the mountain god is going to kill me..." It made the family very restless.After the sorceress in the village came to see her, she first burned incense and amulets to exorcise ghosts, and then invited a tiger-eyed, blood-mouthed, fierce-faced Yazi Tun to hang on the door of Du Lin's house, and told Du Lin's wife: "Du Lin offended the mountain god, and his soul was taken away by the mountain god. You should quickly return the things he took from Shennongjia, and then go to the mountain god's temple to burn incense and admit your mistake, and beg the mountain god to release Du Lin's soul. return!"

Although Du Lin's wife hadn't read any books, she could tell that Du Lin was injured by a monster and became like this after being frightened.She didn't go to burn any incense, but found a distant relative of her own in Wushan County, and asked them to take Du Lin there, and continue to find a doctor for Du Lin there.Under the careful treatment of the doctor, Du Lin's illness gradually recovered, but the wound on his face and the pain in his heart could never recover, and he never wanted to go back to Shennongjia!In the end, through the efforts of Du Lin's wife and the continuous help of relatives, acquaintances, and friends, they settled down on the edge of Wushan County.It is not far from Shennongjia, but the terrain is flatter than Shennongjia, but the population is more dense. Life is relatively convenient, and life is better than that in the deep mountains and old forests.

In a new environment, there must be a new life, but Du Lin has never escaped from the shadow of that nightmare. That accident left him with deep sequelae. Become reticent, rarely interact with people, and often have nightmares.Afterwards, Du Lin went hunting for a living, but never went to Shennongjia again.

Not long after Du Lin's family moved out, there was another legend near Shennongjia: It was said that a man went into the mountains late at night to steal mountain goods. Tore off his face, that miserable...
