Chinese Almanac Master

The cliff of Tongchui Mountain in Province C has always been an important local tourist attraction. Because it is too steep, the slope of some mountains is almost vertical, so unless it is some special scientific research institutions and extreme sports enthusiasts, there is no One would expect to be near here.

According to the folks in the village at the bottom of the mountain, there used to be many accidents here. After the founding of the People’s Republic of China, many people disappeared after entering the mountain and could not be found anymore. Since then, no one has gone up the mountain. , even the locals dare not set foot in it, and at this moment when Xiao Nanzhu walked alone through a sparse grove on the top of the back mountain, he took advantage of the night to go up to this mountain that is said to have a history of thousands of years, even Xiao Nanzhu couldn’t help it. Don't admit that this place is indeed easy to go up and down, and there are many dangers, and there is a risk of being buried here at any time.

When he was shopping at the small shop at the bottom of the mountain just now, he took the opportunity to talk to other villagers, because the local man the tour guide found was just one-sided, so Xiao Nanzhu was not at ease. As a result, everyone in the village had a little impression of the old Yang who was engaged in ancient characters, and the description was not much different from the middle-aged man at the beginning, while the thoughtful Xiao Nanzhu was lying on the counter of the canteen while smoking, By the way, I borrowed the homework book that the child used to do homework, and wrote down some of the appearance characteristics of this old Yang.

"Wear glasses, thin hair, leather shoes, and a denim jacket... Sigh, it's been almost a month or two since I entered the mountains... Where else would people like Lao Yang go if they didn't die..."

Muttering in his mouth, he lit a fire stick, and the fluttering fire butterfly dutifully guided the way ahead. Xiao Nanzhu also tried his best to pick a path that was easy to walk on, but the speed was obviously not much faster due to terrain constraints. go.Because he has experience in the army, he has good physical strength, and it is relatively easy to go up the mountain wall with a few points of strength. He carries some things on his back, such as hemp rope and hammers, which are borrowed from the bottom of the mountain. With simple equipment, at this moment, holding a flashlight in one hand, he slowly walked up the naturally formed path in the mountain, and the more he went up, the more he felt that the mountain was strange.

There is a lot of fog in the mountains, and this cliff is no exception. From the bottom of the mountain, the mountain seems to be wrapped in layers of clouds and mist, and everything inside is hard to see clearly. In this kind of humid place, insects and the like There will be more, and now it is summer, there must be no fewer mosquitoes, but Xiao Nanzhu is walking around in the bushes like this, but he didn't see a single mosquito, the whole mountain was quiet and scary, and When he was thinking about what was wrong, he heard the crackling sound that he heard just now when he was at the bottom of the mountain at the entrance of the village.

This time, these strange voices came closer to him. Out of the perception of danger, Xiao Nanzhu couldn't let a group of unknown things follow him like this, so after thinking about it, he still found someone first. Taking advantage of the black light, Fang Fang lay down and hid himself, and then slowly put his hands behind his back.

"Pengzu Baiji! Open!"

Lowering his voice so as not to disturb the four or five black shadows circling back and forth above his head, Xiao Nanzhu held two pieces of calendar paper between his fingers and threw them into the air, and that piece of calendar paper instantly turned into two extremely bright sky flames, illuminating half the sky , and before Xiao Nanzhu, who was lying among the rocks, had a closer look at what the black shadow was, he was startled by a burst of sharp birdsong that exploded in his ears.

As far as the eye can see, giant birds with feathers like raging flames are hovering in the sky. Perhaps they were frightened by the sky fire just now. These four or five giant birds with golden eyes kept flapping their wings, accompanied by their singing The entire mountain stream shook for a moment, and the gravel kept hitting Xiao Nanzhu's head, making him unable to dodge in time.

Such a strange-looking animal would probably frighten a group of people in normal times, but Xiao Nanzhu knows something about our ancestors now, so he only took a few glances at the general characteristics of these giant birds, and he guessed it. It should be the Chongming bird that Ji Zai said was being raised as a chicken by those Huaxia people.

From a scientific point of view, the Chongming bird should actually be regarded as the ancestor of the chicken, but in ancient times, this kind of animal should be regarded as a fierce beast, because although they do not attack humans and are even friendly to humans, no matter whether it is a jackal or a tiger Neither the leopard nor the evil spirit dared to approach the Chongming bird that was burning with fire.

Because as long as they are angered, they will shake off all their feathers. Once these feathers fall to the ground, they will become a real fire, reducing everything to ashes. These Chongming birds were destroyed. This was after the sisters-in-law in the village kept their eggs. Xiao Nanzhu could only look at these chicken ancestors who looked no different from monsters with a headache, and then took out half of the calendar paper that he had already taken out. I took it back.

Chongming Bird's anger comes and goes easily, and it probably will dissipate after a while. Xiao Nanzhu obviously has no interest in fighting with a few hens flying around in the sky, so he just hides behind the stone wall and thinks about waiting. After a while, he would come out by himself after they flew away, but he didn't take the initiative to cause trouble, but there was a sudden scream from the mountain road not far away, followed by Xiao Nanzhu, who hadn't seen anyone since he went up the mountain. Then I saw a young man with a crew cut wearing an old gray-green military uniform and red sleeves rushing out from the side path while shouting.

"Monsters!! Monsters!! The monsters are out again!! Comrades! Come and see!!"

Accompanied by the shout of the young man in the crew-cut military uniform, a group of men and women in military uniform with old-fashioned flashlights and hiking bags rushed out from behind, but the strange thing is that they are not like what they are today in terms of their clothing or various hiking equipment. In this era, it is more like the dress before and after the reform and opening up of the last century. Before Xiao Nanzhu had a closer look at the situation of these people, the Chongming Bird who was frightened by such a large group of people suddenly appeared After raising his head and neighing sharply, he suddenly began to slap his body violently.

The fire points falling densely like sparks fell from the sky in an instant like rain. The group of young people were so frightened that they quickly covered their heads with various things, but their clothes were still ignited. They thought in a hurry It was necessary to extinguish the fire, but the sparks ignited by Shigeaki Toba couldn't be extinguished, which made some girls who were a little less courageous cry directly. Nan Zhu also quickly pulled out a few sheets of calendar paper hidden in his cuffs, and then moved to the edge of the cigarette he was biting in his mouth, and threw out another one.

"Grain rain is coming! The rain is falling! The fires of all directions are extinguished!"

As soon as the calendar paper rubbing Gu Yu's soul is lit, even if Gu Yu's body is thousands of miles away at the moment, today is not Gu Yu's day and he can be dominated by Xiao Nanzhu. The entire mountain road was a fiery red fire, which was gradually extinguished by a sudden heavy rain.

In the clouds and mist, only a young and pretty woman in blue can be vaguely seen spreading the rain in the clouds. The wet hairs of those huge Chongming birds were extinguished and looked a little funny, but Xiao Nanzhu After frowning and looking at the group of young people behind him who stared at him with ghostly eyes, he didn't have time to say anything, and directly shook out a piece of calendar paper with the Awakening of Zhes rubbed on it, and unfolded it.

"Awakening of Insects! Shocking Thunder! Eliminate Eight-faced Evil Ghosts!"

The blue-red thunder and lightning suddenly split the sky, Jing Zhe, who was dressed in blue, waved his sleeves, his handsome face was looming in the clouds, thunderstorms fell from his sleeves, and the Chongming birds were terrified when they saw this situation, and flew away in panic He moved away, and after confirming that the danger was over and waved Gu Yu and Jing Zhe back, Xiao Nanzhu was almost slapped in the face by an engineer shovel as soon as he turned around.

"Hey hey hey! Why is this!"

Easily sideways to avoid the attack of this engineer shovel, Xiao Nanzhu kindly rescued people, but was treated like this by these seven or eight young people who were so frightened that his faces turned pale. He was obviously a little speechless. It was all dust and blood, and these black men and women who were burned all over their bodies were not much better, and the ragged ones were not much different from beggars. Xiao Nanzhu continued to say something, and the big man who just took the lead in throwing him with the engineer shovel started to yell stammeringly.

"Where did you come from, a monster!! I...we are all communist workers, peasants and soldiers! No! Don't be afraid of you! Comrades! Students! Let's gather together quickly! Let's fight this monster together!!"

Witnessing the astonishing scene where Xiao Nanzhu chased away those Chongming birds just now, these strange young men and women dressed in old-fashioned clothes were obviously terrified, and the words in their mouths were also incoherent. How did Xiao Nanzhu feel? The appearance of these people is not quite right, but for a while, it is impossible to tell what is wrong. After all, if these people were around here just now, he would not be able to notice anything for no reason, but look at the shoes on their feet and the things they are wearing. Things, obviously came up the mountain to collect some sample information, thinking like this, Xiao Nanzhu's expression became a little complicated, and when he subconsciously ignored the appearance of these people avoiding panic, he forced the flashlight on their faces one by one After scanning up, Rao even Xiao Nanzhu was a little surprised by the sudden situation in front of him.

"You... all of you are students of Pingdingshan University of Botany, right?!"

……

As mentioned earlier, several groups of people have disappeared from the cliffs of Tongchui Mountain for so many years. The time period for these people to disappear has spanned nearly 80 years. The earliest can be traced back to the 70s and [-]s. The students came to this mountain to investigate, but in the end they completely disappeared in the depths of this mountain.

In order to let the subsequent tourists who come to visit nearby realize the danger of Tongchui Mountain itself, the photos of the missing persons and some briefing posters at that time are still posted on the small blackboard at the entrance of the village at the bottom of the mountain. At the bottom of the mountain, Xiao Nanzhu stood there bored and looked at it for a while, but this general impression was enough for him to recognize that the eight young men and women in front of him were the ones who disappeared in this mountain 80 years ago. student.

"Li Peng, do you mean that you feel that you have only walked this mountain for less than four hours?"

Sitting by the fire and patting his dirty coat, Xiao Nanzhu spent a long time convincing these shouting unearthed cultural relics to believe his words, and at this moment he also seemed a little exhausted, which he never imagined before going up the mountain He would bump into so many people who should have died decades ago, which made him feel that Lao Yang, who had only disappeared for about two months, would not die, and on the other hand, he also felt strange about this mountain. more and more curious.

"Yes, the students all came up together after having dinner at the bottom of the mountain. From 05:30 to [-]:[-], isn't it four hours? Everyone's watches are very accurate. Let's put The two roasted sweet potatoes in the lunch box are still warm...Also, although we got lost because of some problems, we still know how much time has passed...Why...how could it be like you As you said... so much time has passed..."

Unable to control his out-of-control emotions, if Xiao Nanzhu hadn't reported their names one by one and explained the situation in detail, these pale-faced students would not be willing to sit down and talk to him about their affairs in detail. Their faces were pale, and their necks were filled with sweat. The two girls were crying in fear, as if they were about to faint at any moment. Xiao Nanzhu told them a fact that they couldn't even imagine.

They thought they had only experienced four hours, but it had been 80 years outside, and everyone who knew them thought they were dead long ago, but they didn't even know how to get out of this mountain. This kind of fact makes everyone's backs shudder, and the fact that the hair is counted down almost drives these students who are only in their early twenties crazy, and Xiao Nanzhu frowned helplessly after lighting himself a cigarette. analyzed,

"I just showed you my ID card. I'm not kidding. It's been 80 years outside. Maybe it's because of some reasons that I can't be sure. When you went up the mountain, time was on you It's stagnant, don't be afraid now, since I met you, I will definitely take you out..."

"But...but how can you be sure that you will be able to escape...We...none of us felt what happened, 80 years have passed like this..."

A weak and timid voice suddenly sounded, interrupting Xiao Nanzhu's words. Xiao Nanzhu was obviously taken aback when he heard the words, but looked at the little girl with two big braids shrinking in the corner in surprise, and for a moment I also felt that there was some truth in these words, Xiao Nanzhu pinched the cigarette and thought about it thoughtfully, then raised his head to look at the night sky and said,

"It didn't take me more than 15 minutes from the time I went up the mountain to walking here. Of course, according to the rules of this ghost place, I may have missed an unknown amount of time, but I don't know if you have noticed that since I met you, this The mountain has changed a little bit, the most obvious one is..."

As soon as the words fell, Xiao Nanzhu slapped the palm of that young man named Li Peng on the calf. The young man yelled in fright, scaring everyone around him enough. Seeing this, Xiao Nanzhu was speechless. After cursing something worthless and shouting, then he spread his blood-stained palm and smiled,

"Mosquitoes have appeared, and other things alive during this time period must have also appeared. What you are experiencing now is a normal time. Maybe it was my intrusion that broke the situation you were originally trapped in, or maybe something Other reasons made this time-stopped mountain temporarily return to normal, in short, no matter what happens next..."

——"You all have to listen to me."
