The author's diary of ghost stories

Chapter 9 The monkey doesn’t know (4k)

rabbit……

Like a crocodile, carrying strange stories with it?

But it didn't trigger on its own, maybe the conditions weren't met or something else.

Forget it, this is not the point, the point is what she said.

"Don't tell them you can see."

"who are they?

Refers to Lao Du and Xiao Zhize?

"Visible" should mean that you can see the true faces of the animals on the road.

Why do the store clerks here remind themselves like this?

Yu Liang looked at the direction where the clerk disappeared and frowned slightly. He could understand why the clerk left a small note and left in a hurry.

Normal employees in this zoo will not talk to tourists. If it is an aggressive tourist like Lao Du, it is possible to kill him directly. But in the face of this danger, the clerk still chooses to remind himself, is he ulterior motives or kind-hearted?

Because of the previous crocodile employee, Yu Liang was wary of everything in the zoo, but he tended to think that the clerk was well-intentioned, because it was difficult for him to think of any trap from this sentence.

But Yu Liang couldn't figure out the source of this kindness. After much thought, he couldn't find a reason to explain it except his "monkey" identity.

"Yu Liang, are you okay? It's time for us to leave." Xiao Zhize walked towards him, raising the instant noodles in his hand, "I asked Lao Du, and he said he would just stay one night on Turtle Island and bring some That’s enough food for today.”

"Yes." Yu Liang nodded. He looked at the shelves in front of him. There were some biscuits on them, and the prices were almost the same as reality. The purchasing power of tourist points and cash here was roughly the same. He walked to several other shelves, " Wait, let me see what else is here.”

There are very few types of products in this convenience store. Yu Liang originally wanted to find out if there were any things like wolfberry that could be used to combine characters, but he obviously thought too much. The food shelves here almost only have the ones commonly seen in scenic stores. A few items, instant noodles, water, cookies of unknown brands, and some toilet paper, sanitary napkins and the like on the daily necessities shelf.

But what made him a little strange was that no matter how he searched for it on the non-food shelves, he couldn't find anything that looked like food. But he also knew that Lao Du would not take it for granted. If he saw random things on the shelves in the future, no matter what, All should be avoided.

Yu Liang stopped choosing. Like Xiao Zhize, he took two buckets of instant noodles. When his eyes fell back to the daily necessities shelves, he had a new goal.

Pen.

He looked in the direction of Lao Du. Lao Du and Xiao Zhize had already walked to the face-swiping payment machine near the sales counter, so he took two ballpoint pens and wrote the words "Mingxin Lake" on the post-it note just now. There’s a wolf disguised as a rabbit nearby, be careful”.

After grabbing a few more packets of paper, he followed Lao Du and the two of them. He had already calculated the price of these things in his mind. The total was 25 tourist points.

In front of the self-service face-scanning machine, Xiao Zhize put the three people's things together. He smiled shyly at Lao Du and Yu Liang, clasped his hands together in a gesture of supplication, "Thank you for the journey, I'll do this for such a small amount of money." Just pay it, you can do it later, my visitor points don’t matter.”

"No, I'm just doing it for myself." Lao Du shook his head and wanted to stop him, but seeing Xiao Zhize quickly settling the bill, he didn't say much. At the same time, he was a little surprised when he saw what Yu Liang bought, " Pen? Paper?"

Yu Liang nodded. He had no intention of hiding this, and said straightforwardly: "There are many words for 'bamboo texture', but you may not be able to find bamboo in this zoo. Bring a pen first, just in case you need it, and the same goes for 'paper'."

"Yeah, sure." Lao Du nodded, "There is indeed no bamboo in this zoo. The animals all eat the same feed."

"What do you mean?" Xiao Zhize was stunned. He looked at Yu Liang and then at Lao Du, a little confused.

Sure enough.

Yu Liang said, what he just said revealed the usage of the characters obtained by the second conversion, and Lao Du did not point it out wrong, indicating that his guess was correct.

He did not hide this rule from Xiao Zhize, which was a way of repaying Xiao Zhize's action just now. "Most Chinese characters are pictophonetic characters, and most of the voices are abstract characters. It is difficult to find the entities. However, the voices can be obtained by extracting the texture, and then the corresponding parts can be obtained." By combining the textures, you can get the characters you want. Compared with the direct combination mentioned by Lao Du, the characters you can get through secondary conversion will be much more."

Yu Liang tried his best to explain this completely and clearly. It was from the characteristics of the pictophonetic characters that he deduced that secondary conversion should be a more common usage.

"It makes sense." Xiao Zhize was stunned for a moment, and then nodded his head as if he was awake. Although he has graduated, his Chinese language foundation has not been completely lost.

These words also made Lao Du look a little thoughtful. He was originally a rough man. He relied on his brute strength and the wild nature of crawling in the mountains for many years to survive in this strange world. However, this does not mean that he is not He didn't care about these character rules. On the contrary, he had been silently studying and studying these Chinese characters. Yu Liang's words also gave him some enlightenment.

"Then let me buy some other things?" Xiao Zhize turned to look at the shelves inside. He was not stupid, so he naturally knew that a suitable character was far more valuable than tourist points.

"No need." Yu Liang grabbed him instantly, "There are not many things that can be used here. What I picked is enough."

Xiao Zhize nodded. Little did he know that Yu Liang was worried that he would see the note he left, so he gave up obediently. In less than half a day, he had already understood his role in the team. He only needed to be obedient. .

"But some special characters do not apply to such rules." Lao Du suddenly said, "For example, 'key', it seems that it must be synthesized with 'moon', and the extracted texture of 'moon' is useless."

Yu Liang lowered his eyes and thought about it, having bad associations in his mind.

Lao Du said so definitely, he must have tried it. The texture of "moon" is mostly related to the body structure, and the story behind it is obvious.

"The weather has changed." Lao Du raised his head and said solemnly. The sky that was clear just now suddenly turned gloomy. "The weather has changed. Leave early and arrive early. Turtle Island is safer than here."

Yu Liang could also feel the oppressive atmosphere in the air, as if something was coming. He wanted to take advantage of the time he was on the road to ask Lao Du what the alienation in his profession was, but suddenly there was nothing. His interest in asking was gone, but he could only feel the uneasiness deep in his heart.

Go quickly, leave here quickly, go to Turtle Island quickly, go to the safe place that Lao Du said.

Now this is the only thought in his mind.

"Ahead is the Bird Park. Go through it quickly along the main street. Watch the road carefully. I won't come looking for you if you get lost." Lao Du ordered, walking quickly ahead, "Pass by the parrot and myna area. Don't talk to them; don't look at their tails when passing by the peacock area."

Yu Liang noticed that Lao Du put his hand on the handle of the machete again. Lao Du had never been so vigilant when passing through the grassland animal area before.

birds……

Are birds more dangerous than pythons and lions in grassland areas?

This chilling atmosphere also affected him. He couldn't help but put a pawn and a stone into his pocket, and kept rubbing the smooth back of the chess pieces with his fingers. This mechanical behavior could relieve his tension.

"Lao Du?"

The three of them were about to enter the bird park, when a voice from the side called them.

Yu Liang looked at the speaker. It was a small group of four people. They were dressed very plainly, basically wearing simple sportswear. Everyone was carrying a sports backpack and holding an iron rod or a long knife. arms.

"Yeah." Lao Du just nodded slightly, his reaction was very cold.

The leading man tilted his head and looked behind Lao Du, and said in surprise: "I didn't expect you to bring new people, Lao Du?"

"Mix some mission rewards." Lao Du said concisely and concisely. It was obvious that this was his usual behavior. This cold response did not surprise the leading man.

"My name is Wu Yong, what do you call me?" The leading man stepped forward and when he was five steps away from Lao Du, he put his hands on his chest to show that he was not a threat.

"Xiao Zhize."

"Yu Liang."

Wu Yong's eyes lingered on the two of them for a moment. He couldn't see anything special about them, but to be chosen by Lao Du, there must be some hidden special ability.

Although he had not met Lao Du a few times, he had long heard of Lao Du's soloism and strength. But now there were two new people around Lao Du, which made him a little curious.

"Where are you going, Lao Du? The visitor center?" Wu Yong said with a smile, "Let's go together if we are on the way."

Lao Du's eyes fell on the three people behind Wu Yong, two men and one woman. Both men and women were alert and capable, and they had obviously experienced the invasion of ghost stories.

"Okay." Lao Du agreed.

Yu Liang looked at Lao Du with some surprise. He originally thought that Lao Du would refuse. Lao Du had always been a loner before, so he probably didn't like to live with too many people.

He looked up at the sky. At this time, the sky above the bird garden was already covered with clouds, as if a thick black quilt was pressing down, and the world became faintly darker.

Combined with Lao Du's previous actions, the sky at this time is obviously an ominous sign.

To be honest, Yu Liang, who was well versed in horror movie routines, wanted to leave them and run away. He was almost certain that something strange would happen next.

However, he is a monkey who cannot be alone, and Lao Du also made the decision to pass through the bird park. This probably means that there is danger in crossing the park, but it is only a risk within the controllable range.

The main body of the Bird Garden is a large dense forest, with viewing areas for various birds randomly distributed among them, and tree-lined trails interspersed among them. What is more interesting is that there is no map for the entire Bird Garden, which is a must for first-time visitors. What kind of birds you can see is very random. Even experienced tourists can easily get lost when passing through the bird garden. After all, the entire park is full of tall and dense forests that Yuliang cannot name, and it is quite strange to see them when you look up. The feeling of heaven.

"Quack-quack-" In the darkness deep in the forest, the hoarse cries of crows came, and there was also a thick fog that could not be dispersed.

"Follow me." Lao Du frowned slightly, turned his head and said, "Wu Yong, please be the queen."

"Okay." Wu Yong did not refuse. As the second position of this temporarily formed team, he had the obligation to stay behind and ensure the safety of the team.

Small birds are kept in cages or hung on treetops or placed on the roadside. They are generally used as decorations on this tree-lined path for tourists to watch. The signboard provides a brief introduction to the species of birds, while the self-service restaurant on one side The vending machine only sells a red general bird feed that can be used to feed animals.

Do all birds eat the same feed?

Although he had seen this article in the tourist information before, Yu Liang was still a little surprised when he saw it.

Different birds have different feeding habits. It is hard to imagine that they will eat the same kind of feed. However, this zoo is not normal. It is normal for these animals to be abnormal.

The seven people walked in a hurry. No one wanted to stay here for a long time, and the birds in the cage showed little interest in them. Most of the birds lowered their heads and blinked rhythmically. They were not alert at all. Only a few looked up. There were a few people at once, but there was still no unnecessary performance.

"The myna is a noisy bird with a black body and a crown of feathers on its forehead. It is a small bird that can imitate bird calls and human speech. Its meat can be used as medicine and has the effects of lowering qi and stopping bleeding."

The content on the signboard reminds the rushing tourists that they have arrived at the myna viewing area.

"Ignore them." Lao Du turned around and warned, "No matter what they say, don't believe it, don't stay, and don't feed it."

"Did you hear that? What Lao Du said is very important." Wu Yong at the end said to his three team members.

The other two did not respond, as if they felt that this kind of question could be understood without further explanation. Only the woman said "I understand" and her voice was calm.

Yu Liang looked at the woman. She wore sportswear and short hair, and exuded a sense of competence. She always held a dagger in her hand and kept a distance of about one meter from the people around her.

Suddenly, a myna in the birdcage said, "Look, there's a monkey mixed in with the crowd."

"It's a strange thing." The other myna responded, "Hey, brother monkey, how about buying me a bag of feed?"

"..." Yu Liang ignored them and didn't even look at the two birds.

The starlings are communicating in human language, and other people can also hear these contents. If he responds, it will definitely arouse suspicion. If he does not respond, others will only think that the two starlings are talking nonsense.

And he is not a monkey, he just fell into the monkey ghost story.

"Okay, I don't seem to be able to understand human language." The myna curled its lips and flapped its wings. It asked the myna next to it, "Can you speak monkey language? Ask, I'm hungry."

"Chi-chi?" Another myna imitated the monkey's call vividly, "Chi-chi-chi."

"..." Yu Liang raised his eyes and looked at them, feeling helpless in his heart.

Although he didn't want to admit it, he did understand.

Damn it.

The myna repeated what he had just said in monkey language, and he was sure that no one else understood what the myna was saying.

"Let me tell you, he really can't understand human speech." The first myna shook its wings, as if imitating the human shrug.
