One summer, I went to Mudanjiang, after touring Mirror Lake and climbing Weihu Mountain, I had nothing to do, so I went to the primeval forest with my friends to play.
The place was in Mulin, very remote, and after driving along the mountain road for seven to eight hours, we arrived at a town called Republic (the place is so remote that burial is still practiced), stayed in Republic for one night, and hired an old man as a guide there.
The old man had a donkey, and we rode in his donkey cart down the mountain path for most of the day before we reached the pale primeval forest.
Here is the border between Russia and China, the real primitive forest, people with a stick to drive, pheasants from the shrubs fluttering fluttering, white bright streams are full of fish, the most is Chuandingzi, willow root, and three scales, seven miles of floating seeds, dog fish stick.
We roasted pheasant at the stream and stewed a five or six pound catfish ball with the eggplant we brought. Catfish is catfish, which is a very famous fish in the Northeast. There is a saying that "catfish stewed with eggplant will kill the old man", and drinking white wine with catfish will not change a governor's mile!
We just ate the catfish, drank the old white wine and got dizzy, lying on the grass next to the creek and talking about the big mountain.
The old man told us a lot about hunting.
He said, hunting in the mountains, there are a lot of mysterious sayings, not just what can not sit on the stump, can not hit the extinct hunting, graves on the prey can not be played on the line.
Old hunters know that the mountain wildlife grows for hundreds of years, thousands of years, what evil things no?
But some of the evil things it, if you touch it, do not hit it okay, if you hit it, do not kill it, it will have to kill you.
Some things are even more deadly, as long as it happens, you do not fight it can not, it will come over to get you.
There is a saying in the mountains that "the back of the fox slanted to hit the wolf, the moon under the black blind".
This is a saying.
Don't look at its hard head like an iron hammer, you just need to pick up a thick firewood and give it a hard f**k on the waist, and the damn thing will be ruined.
Black blind man thick skin and flesh, it is difficult to kill, and a shot does not kill it, it will also fight back, the thick bear paws once a person slapped a smashed.
But it has a dead end.
The black blind man has a handful of crescent-shaped white hair at the chest, that is where its heart is located, aim here, you can kill it with one shot.
The most evil is the fox.
The fox should be played on the back, can not be played directly against it.
The old-timers said that if you are playing it, it is okay not to hit, if you hit, it will suddenly smile at you before you die (I am actually quite curious whether the fox will really smile, but did not dare to ask), the fox smile the most terrible, if you meet, people basically can not go down the mountain.
Wong Tai Sin is the yellow skin, this thing is also evil, and people can exchange lives.
If you kill a yellow skin, the other yellow skin will climb to a high tree branch, the head stuck in the tree branch, hang themselves alive.
It is called a life exchange, rather than their own death, but also to pull you to accompany the funeral.
At this time, a good person will suddenly be unconscious, and even nasal cavity to spurt blood outward, water and rice do not enter. At this time, people have to hurry to find the life of the yellow skin, kill it, or be the life of the yellow skin to pull the dead.
Some people say that this is because the yellow skin fart poisonous, what can make people hallucinate, so you look at the mountain is not mountain, water is not water, everywhere is a ghost, can scare people to live crazy.
The old forest things live for a long time, a lot of things, right, can not think about it, think about it is scared.
Next, he gave me a personal experience he experienced the old forest of strange things.
This is a few decades ago.
At that time, I was just a teenager, every day to go to the hillside to herd sheep.
One day, put on, I found a sheep missing, looking around, found a monkey driving sheep to the old forest zap.
He gave me a gesture, monkey drive sheep, is the monkey riding on the sheep, with paws blindfolded sheep. The sheep can't see anything, so it walks according to the monkey's command. It hit the sheep's buttocks with its tail, the sheep will go forward, patting its neck, it will turn the corner.
At that time I was very strange, the monkey is a fruit eater, drive the sheep to do what?
Surreptitiously followed behind, to see what the monkey wanted to do.
I found that the monkey drove the sheep to the old forest, and finally drove to a broken cave, the sheep blasted into it, and crawled away.
Although I am small, but since I was a child bold, carrying a shotgun on his back, and with a mountain dog, what is there to be afraid of?
Just want to go into the hole, I did not expect the dead dog but tugged my trouser leg, grasping the ground, and refused to let me go in.
I was annoyed, kicked a few feet, kicked the dog away, and dragged his own steps to the cave.
At this time, the dog suddenly let out a sound like a human whimper, and then suddenly sprang over, and at once knocked me away, and rushed into the hole itself, barking towards the hole, the voice choked, as if scared to the extreme, but also to hold on.
I became nervous and pulled the bolt of my g*n, thinking that the cave was estimated to be a leopard.
This dog, right, is not afraid of wolves, but afraid of leopards, as soon as they smell leopard urine, they goose themselves.
This mountain guard dog is afraid that I will be scratched by the leopard, so he went in first and tried to block for me.
I was a little excited, I took off my shotgun and jumped in at once, but I didn't expect the guard dog to come crashing towards him, pushing us hard to go out.
I think something is not right, we whistled, want the dog also followed back, it was found that the dog was paralyzed by fear, four legs on the ground shaking desperately, looking at me pitifully, almost can not even make a sound.
Although standing are unstable, but it is still dead in front of me, protecting me.
I was anxious, thinking that no matter what the cave in the end is a big beast, the dog must be taken away today. I dragged the dog collar with one hand, desperately dragged back, when the cave suddenly came a low roar, shocked the entire cave are buzzing, debris falling.
The dog finally glanced towards me, and suddenly crashed towards me, knocked me over, crashed out of the cave, and roared himself, and ran hard towards the depths of the cave ......
I think something is wrong, I went back to gather a group of people into the cave and found that the cave scattered all the bones of pigs and sheep, and children wearing silver bracelets ......"
Speaking of which, he looked down and took a strong puff of smoke.
I was anxious to ask: "What is that hole? Beat it to death?"
The old man shook his head: "I do not know ...... we ambushed over there for five nights, did not see an animal, and finally had to go down the mountain ......
But listen to the elders said, that cave is designated to have a let all the animals are very afraid of things, that monkey is to give it a sacrifice ......"
I was a little chilled behind and a little touched and said, "That dog ...... is dying for you ......"
He vaguely agreed.
I lamented, "What a good dog!"
He smoked a cigarette, and suddenly said without thinking: "Dogs and dogs are the same, people and people do not know the minions!"
After telling this story, the old man was silent, until we went back, he never told any story, not to mention the monster in the cave in the end what.
On the road, I have been thinking: if people encounter that situation, companions and what choice will do it?
