Vol 5 Chapter 21: Labyrinth Valley

Said the short old man's words, and I was shocked! The heart said no, this old guy turned out to be my dad's old acquaintance? This wouldn't be the one the godmother said! ? Thinking this, I turned my attention to the goddess, and the goddess was not so sure, so I just nodded slightly.
At that time, I heard the echoing voice in the air and said to the little old man in a reproachful tone: "Are you like you as an uncle? The child came from afar, even if you are prepared to take a bite, it is yours Uncle did not act in vain! But you teased the children! "The dwarf old man also argued:" This kid is doing yin and yang, and the rivers and lakes are sinister. Let him see the situation that he has never seen. I am exercising to exercise his courage. "As the result came out, the voice in the air laughed:" Haha, I can tell you! There can be Laohai's daughter-in-law, you are old, the uncle father scares his nephew-in-law! You are not afraid In the future, if you meet Brother Hai's daughter-in-law, will you beat your ears? "
I can understand this time, it seems that these people are waiting for me here! Listening to the meaning, this dwarf man should have deliberately teased us, so that we can circulate in this forest indefinitely. Although out of good intentions, obviously this approach is really too cumbersome! And it is not difficult to hear from the voice of the voice in the air, my old lady may have flattened this short old man at first, so that this matter has become the handle of this group of people!
The short old man "Oops!" Stomped and said, "I really don't know this! My third mistake me!" Then I turned around and said, "Great nephew! Uncle doesn't know that the nephew's wife is here. , Warm your body with a sip of tea! "Said, pulling my horse's reins with his hand. My horse is probably too ugly for him, and he turned his head back to resist! He was short, and the scene looked very funny.
I quickly dismounted and clenched my fists in the air, and said, "Thank you senior for your blessing!" The little old man said, "This is the ability of Konggu, and others are still outside the valley! Don't pay attention!" That is the elders, and hurriedly saluted: "My little nephew didn't know that this was my uncle's here. Please don't come here. If you disturb me, please ask your uncle for mercy!" The little old man waved his hands again and again. Let's drink tea at home and warm our body! Haha, good boy! "He said, with one finger, said:" I'm walking in front, your horse keeps up and walks forward.
It's also strange to say that this little old man didn't seem to run, only walking in front, but our horse had to trot to keep up. After walking for a while, I saw a few shacks resembling a hut on the front slope, with a chimney and smoke. There is a fence surrounded by trees outside. The old man opened the fire door and let us into the yard. We tied the horse to the fence post and entered the house. The room was quite spacious. I saw the old man picking up a roll of felt from the wall, shaking his hand, and the felt rolled flat on the ground. The old man greeted us to sit casually, then went inside and did not know what to do, and then came out and sat with us, looking like a mental illness.
After a while, a young man came out, holding a tray, inside a silver bowl, milk tea, and steaming. Put it in front of everyone, it seems that here is close to the grassland, and the customs have the meaning of grassland. I wasn't used to drinking milk tea, so I took a sip. A few Mongolian girls were familiar with it. A set of tedious rituals. They dipped their hands and tapped their heads. We don't care about that set, but on Chong Xi, we drink it up. Seeing Chong Xi ’s behavior, the short old man smiled without anger, and said with a smile: "Hahaha, this kid is good! Like me!" Chong Xi also smiled, saying that this short uncle and Chong Xi were both short stature People, is it possible to have such a sympathetic failure?
Sit down for a while and then we feel it. It turns out that the bottom of the is hot. The floor in this room looks flat and tatami, but the fire is very warm underneath. Suddenly, the cold was expelled, not to mention more comfortable. The young man brought two wooden flat plates. The old man greeted everyone and sat in two circles, surrounding the flat plate.
The old man pointed to the young man and said to us: "This is a bitter child picked back that year. He is a dumb boy. His parents were robbed and all died in the mountains. I was only a few years old when I rescued. Now I grow up and follow me Depends on each other! "Said the young man, who brought a large piece of cooked meat with bones from the back kitchen like a stone, and was still steaming. It seemed that the meat was fresh out of the pan, and I couldn't see what the meat was. He banged it on the wooden plate, and then moved another piece and put it on another wooden plate. Afterwards, they brought a few knives. Mongolian girls may often see this situation. They pulled out the knives and put them in front, looking at the old man.
I don't understand the rules at all. Maybe the rules there are to wait for the elders to move first. The old man greeted, "We are not a prairie, there are no rules!" At this time, the young man brought a wine jar, the old man gestured to put it next, and then continued, "Everyone just drink and eat meat, this is home!" There is another hint of warmth in my heart. This cold old forest is not completely a strange trap, but also a kind of person who has met this kind of loyalty.
Of course, the old man said the same as Bai said, because even if he didn't say it, Chong Xi had already eaten and drank. You know, Chong Xi is never used to that set when eating and drinking. He listened to Chong Xi while drinking and kept his mouth open: "This wine is good! Well, this meat is also good!" The old man laughed, and Chong Xi obviously The old man is really angry. The old man smiled and gave himself a drink while he said to Chongxi: "Hahahaha, your kid treats me like I was when I was young! Just take this big piece of meat-eating momentum, and I will appreciate it!" Chongxi eats As soon as the rice brain is quasi-apocalyptic, I will talk about it immediately! "Your old (you) have little knowledge (somewhat unknown), I am an orphan, since I was young, I will serve (Master), and if I have something to eat, I have to eat it!" Chong Xi chewed in his mouth. He murmured vaguely on the side of the meat. The old man patted the table excitedly and said, "Okay! That's it, that's right! If you eat meat, you have to stutter!" I said to you that you are heroic. It is estimated that my dad also likes your temperament.
As I ate, I asked the old man curiously, "Uncle, there are no birds here. Where do you hunt?" The old man laughed haha. They were all hunted from outside the valley. Before entering the winter, the winter food was stored, and the prey I hit was packed as it is now and piled up in the cellar.
After three rounds of wine, I put down the knife and wine, handed a cigarette to the old man, and gave a circle of cigarettes to everyone else who was doing it. Xiao Baihua unexpectedly missed it and said she wanted to quit. I smiled and said it was okay. I do n’t mind that she took it and picked it up in the past. After everyone lit the cigarette, I said to the old man, "Uncle, presumably the purpose of my nephew's coming here, you should also know?" The old man nodded, and then groped for a while, then from his pocket I took out a thumb-sized small jade bottle and threw it to me: "That day, the dumb-eyed demon broke into my psychedelic valley, which just made me hear them talking about you. At first I did n’t I knew that the person they were talking about was Lao Haige ’s son, but they actually talked about the spirit gourd that your old man used to use. The demention bottle was snapped off! "
Then the old talent told us the details of the time. This valley is called "The Valley of Souls", and people who enter this valley will inevitably go around in a circle. They must not advance anyway, and the more they advance, the more they will get lost. But as long as you retreat due to difficulties and want to go back, then turning around is Taniguchi. Of course, this is also due to the magical power of the old man. According to the old man, the foxes passed by here, and he was intercepted by him. After questioning, he learned my whereabouts, and only then detained my godmother's dementor bottle.
After eating a meal, the sky is almost the same, this meal with lunch and dinner for a whole half of the afternoon. The old man asked me about the situation of my father and mother for many years, and I praised my father.
It wasn't until the sky was completely dark that I said that I would rest early today. The purpose of my business has been achieved. It's time to rush back. However, the old man smiled and said, "Tomorrow you should go to the valley to see the old man! I heard that you are coming, the old guy can't sit still!"
