Chapter 24 Strange Animals
After they said this, my heart was in my throat.
I was a little worried about them, so I asked, "You saw your uncle, did he hurt you?"
"No, your uncle left again soon."
I became a little nervous at this time. I didn't know what my uncle was like or what condition he was in. I was even not sure if he was a good person or not.
All kinds of emotions were running through my mind.
"Xiaoyang, don't worry about us. Tell the Taoist priest about this as soon as possible."
"Okay, Dad. You and Mom go inside first and don't come out unless you have something else to do."
"Well, Xiaoyang, we know, please be careful."
My father's voice sounded somewhat concerned.
I nodded to show that I knew.
I hung up the phone and without any delay, hurriedly told the Taoist priest about the matter. The Taoist priest also said that we should wait for uncle here.
The Taoist priest frowned slightly after hearing what I said, and said to me, "Are you sure?"
"What my dad said shouldn't be wrong."
I said this to the Taoist priest, but he didn't take it seriously and his frown soon began to relax.
"Continue to wait here."
My dad has already said that my uncle has appeared in the village, but he still wants to wait here. Isn't this just like waiting for something to happen?
I don't quite understand the Taoist's approach.
I was about to say something, but my uncle suddenly came up to me and said, "Xiaoyang, my master said to wait here, so let's wait here."
The Taoist priest has real abilities, I believe that.
But despite this, I still couldn't help but ask the Taoist priest: "My parents are okay right?"
The Taoist priest looked at me and then said slowly, "Don't worry, nothing will happen. Your uncle will definitely come."
The Taoist priest's words were so decisive that I couldn't help but feel a little doubtful.
Since the Taoist priest has said this repeatedly, I can only choose to believe it.
At night, the wind on the mountain became colder and colder. My cousin and I were warming ourselves by the campfire. There were only a few scattered incense sticks in the temple, and no other light.
At about ten o'clock in the evening, there was still no movement at the foot of the mountain.
The Taoist priest had a deep gaze and no one knew what .
I'm running out of patience waiting here.
But the Taoist priest remained calm and composed, not in a hurry at all.
Seeing this, I had no choice but to ask the Taoist priest, "Master, how long do we need to wait?"
The Taoist priest glanced at me and said calmly, "Keep waiting."
"good."
I waited for another hour, but there was still no movement. I was getting so tired of waiting that I almost got fed up.
My cousin was also getting bored. He came up to me and said, "Xiaoyang, let's go to the mountains. Maybe we can get some game to eat."
I was really bored waiting here, so I agreed to my cousin's suggestion. Anyway, I would just walk around here and wouldn't go too far.
My cousin and I quickly went around to the back of the mountain god temple. There was an open space in front of the temple, and there was also an open space behind it, and there was also a relatively large tree.
This tree will cast a shadow during the day, blocking the sunlight from the temple.
As soon as we arrived behind the mountain temple, my cousin took out his cell phone, turned on the flashlight, and illuminated the surrounding environment. After that, he saw a small path in front of him.
I looked over there and saw that the path was smooth and shiny, and it was obvious that many people had walked there.
It was already eleven o'clock in the evening, and we started walking forward. As we walked, my uncle chatted with me about how many strange things he had encountered when he was just learning how to slaughter pigs.
If he hadn't worshipped this master, he would still be unable to solve many problems now.
I now admit that this Taoist priest is truly capable.
We kept walking, and suddenly we heard a strange sound coming from the front. My cousin shone a flashlight forward, and I looked over there. At this time, I saw a pair of glowing eyes looking at me.
For an instant I felt a chill down my spine and couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Suddenly, my uncle said, "Xiaoyang, that's game, let's go after it."
In fact, I also know that if you encounter an animal at night, as long as you shine a flashlight on it, the animal's eyes will emit a strange light.
But I thought this animal was a little strange, but my uncle didn't care and just ran after it.
I wanted to tell my uncle not to chase me, but he wouldn't listen to me at this moment. I saw him moving quickly forward.
I had no choice but to chase after him.
As I was chasing, I felt out of breath, so I took a rest on the side of the road. This road seemed a little strange, stretching forward as if there was no end.
Needless to say, my cousin's physical strength is so great that ordinary people really can't catch up with him.
When slaughtering pigs in the past, some pigs could not be controlled, but my uncle could hold the pigs down with his bare hands.
So it was very difficult for me to catch up with my cousin, and since I couldn't catch up with him, I simply gave up.
I took out my cell phone and called my cousin, but strangely, the call went through, but my cousin didn't answer.
I began to feel uneasy. Although there is a mountain temple on Liushen Mountain, there is still a possibility that other weird things may happen.
You should know that my uncle was also brought down from Liushen Mountain by my grandfather.
So this Liushen Mountain is really a bit weird.
Two choices emerged in my mind at this moment. One was to go back and find the Taoist priest, or to continue moving forward.
If I go to see the Taoist priest, I'm afraid I won't have enough time, and I'm also worried that something might happen to my cousin in the mountain.
I thought about it, and just as I was hesitating, an animal with glowing eyes suddenly appeared in front of me. When I saw it, I didn't act immediately.
But what I didn't expect was that the animal suddenly stared at me.
We looked at each other, which seemed a little strange in the night.
This animal is actually not afraid of me. This is a little strange. My cousin and I have been slaughtering pigs for many years, and we have blood and energy in our bodies. When most animals see us, they will either be scared to death and tremble all over, or at least retreat away from us.
But not only did this animal not do that, it also looked me in the eye.
It's enough to see how courageous he is.
Because it was dark at night, I couldn't see clearly what kind of animal it was.
It's just that I vaguely felt that there was something wrong with the animal.
I was a little scared at this time, but finally I mustered up the courage to move forward. When I moved closer to the animal, I found that the animal was standing there without moving. This made me even more panicked.
