Gao Minge took off the pipe from his waist, took out some shredded tobacco from the paper bag and put it in, then lit it with firewood, then took a puff and let out a puff of smoke, then said: "My duty, It's not to guard the mountain, it's mainly to prevent people from entering the mountain." Leng Xuan asked: "Why? Is there any danger in the mountain?" Gao Mingge nodded and said, "In the past, local people often went up the mountain to chop firewood and hunt, but after they entered the mountain, they would Never came out again. Some old people said that there are gods living in the mountain, and anyone who disturbs the gods will be deprived of their lives and turned into a stone statue."

When the words were over, Gao Minger grinned and said, "Of course, these are all to fool those children. However, after those people entered the mountains, no one came out, and they all disappeared. As for the reason, no one knows. There were also government officials in the past. People went to investigate, but the cause was not found out, but a lot of manpower was lost. Therefore, since then, no one dared to enter the mountain again, and the government did not let people enter it, so as to avoid accidents." Speaking of this , he said for a while, and then continued the question just now: "What are you doing here?"

Leng Xuan replied: "We are tourists. We came here to play and lost our way." When Gao Mingge heard the words, he looked back and forth on Leng Xuan and Fenglie. There was a strange light in his cloudy old eyes.

With a smile, Gao Minge slapped his pipe and poured out the burnt ashes. Then he said, "You guys are lucky. Fortunately, you met me. After the rain stops, I'll take you out of the mountain." Leng Xuan nodded and said: "Okay, then I will trouble the old man Gao." After speaking, he turned his head and said: "By the way, Mr. Gao, when we just came over, we saw a large amount of white gas appearing in the mountains over there. What's going on?" Old Man Gao shook his head and said, "I don't know. That thing has been around for many years." After he finished speaking, he stood up, walked to the entrance of the cave, looked up at the pouring rain, and sighed: "It's estimated that the rain won't stop for a while. It seems that I'm going to spend the night here tonight."

Going back to the fire, Gao Minger took out a pheasant from the sack beside him, plucked the hair, and dealt with it briefly. Then he took out a paper bag, which was mixed with some loose salt and some burning ingredients. Sprinkled some directly on the pheasant, and then baked it on the firewood. In a short while, the smell of barbecue filled the cave, and a pheasant had become golden and oily, and it made people's index fingers move. Leng Xuan couldn't help but swallowed. Seeing this, Gao Geming just smiled slightly, then got off the pheasant, spread the two chicken legs, and handed them to Leng Xuan and Feng Lie respectively.

Leng Xuan was a little embarrassed and said: "Old man, you gave us both chicken legs. It's not good. You can eat chicken legs, I'll just eat chicken." Gao Geming shook his head and said: "Young people want Eat more meat, you can eat it."

  Leng Xuan smiled bitterly, no longer polite, and said, "Then thank you old man."

  After the three of them had eaten, the sky outside the cave gradually dimmed. At this time, Gao Mingge said: "Let's sleep here tonight, the rain is expected to stop tomorrow morning." Leng Xuan replied: "Okay."
