At this moment, the purple light suddenly emanating from the ancient tree slowly emerged again. Qin Xiaofei's heart suddenly sank and he hurriedly took two steps back.
"Xiao Fei!"
At the same time, the villagers' voices got closer and closer. Qin Xiaofei could only suppress the curiosity in his heart and turned to look at the villagers running towards him holding torches.
"Xiao Fei, Xiao Fei, are you okay?" The leader was the village chief Ding Daqiu, and Ding Yan and others also ran over.
"Why are you here?" Qin Xiaofei shook his head, feeling slightly moved at the same time.
In the middle of the night, the villagers were worried about his safety and ran into the deep mountains and forests.
"You brat, what's going on with you? What are you doing here in the middle of the night?" Ding Daqiu's voice deepened. He stepped forward and patted Qin Xiaofei on the shoulder. He looked Qin Xiaofei up and down. When he saw that nothing was wrong, he put it down.
He immediately scolded him, "Do you know that everyone is worried to death, afraid that something will happen to you!"
"It's nothing."
Qin Xiaofei waved his hand, "I heard that sound just now, so I ran up to take a look."
"What happened?" Ding Daqiu's voice deepened. He also heard the sound and was startled at that time.
"Yes, Xiao Fei, what's going on with that sound? Why is it so scary?" Everyone asked one after another.
Qin Xiaofei knew that he couldn't hide the corpse. He looked at the dark place next to him and said, "Look at it!"
"What is that?" A villager was curious and walked forward holding a torch. When he saw the corpse, he let out a cry, his legs went weak and he sat down on the ground.
"Dead people, there are dead people there!"
The expressions of the other villagers changed drastically, and they immediately came over curiously. When they saw the corpse on the ground, they were all so frightened that they even backed away.
"Dead people, really dead people..." Others were also frightened and backed away.
"Xiao Fei, what on earth is going on?" Ding Daqiu's voice trembled.
Qin Xiaofei looked calm. He shook his head and said: "When I came up, there were so many corpses lying on the ground, and then I also saw some wolves and leopards. I guess these people encountered wild beasts, so...
"
A brave villager calmed down and walked forward with a torch to observe a corpse. He looked at it and turned around and said: "The village chief is right, this was indeed caught with sharp claws."
"Old Zhao, are you sure?" Ding Daqiu said in a deep voice.
Although there have been incidents of wild beasts attacking people in this forest before, but not this many, this is still a big deal.
"Well, I'm pretty sure that when I went hunting in the mountains before, I knew the wounds scratched by wild beasts very clearly, but this wound doesn't look like a wolf's, but..." Uncle Zhao stared at the wound and pondered slightly.
"What kind of beast is it?" the villagers asked hurriedly.
Uncle Zhao looked at the wound again, then raised his head, "I don't know either."
Everyone: "..."
What this guy said means he didn’t say anything!
"Although I'm not sure what kind of animal killed the man, I can guarantee that it was a wild beast." Uncle Zhao was very sure, "So, village chief, we have to go down the mountain quickly, otherwise we will be in trouble if some wild beast comes out.
"
Ding Daqiu nodded, "I am ordering now that no one is allowed to go up the mountain during this period. If something happens if you don't listen to the advice, it will be your own fault. Please understand!"
"Understood!" The villagers nodded. Now so many wild beasts appeared all at once. Even if they were pulled up, they would not dare to come up!
Qin Xiaofei is very happy to do this.
First of all, the mandrill is now in the mountain forest, and no one from the villagers has gone up the mountain. At least the mandrill is safe.
Secondly, he has to study this ancient tree now!
Ding Daqiu immediately called the villagers to come down the mountain.
Qin Xiaofei followed the villagers down the mountain. Before leaving, he turned to look at the ancient tree. The ancient tree had returned to its normal color and looked ordinary.
But in his opinion, there must be something here.
A thing that scares even mandrills!
At the same time, he was muttering, what on earth is going on?
Why did the mandrill want to kill these people? Could it be that these people wanted to move the ancient trees, but the mandrill blocked them, and a conflict broke out. So, does it mean that the mandrill was trying to protect the ancient trees?
But since it is protection, why is the mandrill so afraid? Moreover, this ancient tree even hurt the mandrill!
He didn't quite understand!
Qin Xiaofei didn't think much about it and would ask again after seeing the mandrill tomorrow.
When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Ding Daqiu called the police station directly. That night, at around five o'clock in the morning, people from the police station came down and went straight up the mountain to see the scene and the body.
Then it was determined that it was a wild beast. However, there was nothing they could do about this situation. After all, it was very dangerous in the mountains and forests, and it was normal to encounter wild beasts. Moreover, Daoxiang Village was surrounded by mountains. Even they did not dare to step into this old forest easily.
.
So here we can only find out the identities of these corpses and let their families claim them.
At the same time, the police station and the county department directly issued a document prohibiting going to the mountain during this period. At the same time, they will also send people to patrol around the mountain.
These can stop the villagers, but for Qin Xiaofei, there is no difficulty.
Qin Xiaofei was basically imprisoned at home these two days. That night, when he returned home, Lao Qin scolded him.
Moreover, he has to stay at home for these two days and cannot go anywhere.
Even going to the hot spring project is not an option!
The hot spring project can only be suspended for a few days because of this matter, and it can only be resumed after ensuring that everything is fine on the mountain.
Qin Xiaofei was really depressed at home. It was the third day and today was the day he met Mandrill. He was now very worried about this guy's injuries, especially his eyes.
Although the medicine applied to the eyes could not cure the eye wounds, it was somewhat good for the eyes. He had been trying to find a way to cure the mandrill's eyes for the past few days, but there was no good way to cure the mandrill's eyes!
He stayed at home until the afternoon. Seeing that it was getting dark, he took advantage of Lao Qin to go to the toilet in the backyard. Qin Xiaofei immediately opened the door and slipped out!
"Qin Xiaofei, stop right here!"
Before he could run out, Lao Qin's voice came from behind him!
Hearing this, Qin Xiaofei shrugged helplessly. He turned to look at Lao Qin and smiled, "Old Qin, you are not going to the toilet. I... Zhao Ling called just now and said that I need to sign for the village project. I will go out and I will be there soon.
return!"
"Don't go!" Lao Qin looked stern and grabbed his ears, "Come back here, brat, I tell you, even when I go to the toilet, I press my eyes to my head, I want to monitor you
, now don’t even think about going anywhere.”
Two nights ago, he heard that this kid had gone to the mountains, and he almost died of fright!
"Old man, you can't do this." Qin Xiaofei gritted his teeth in pain, "Listen to me, I'll come back after I go to the company to sign. How about you come with me and just watch over me, okay?"
Lao Qin didn't agree at first, but his brother Qin Xiaofeng helped him by saying a few words. Lao Qin thought for a while and said, "Okay, then I will go with you. Let me tell you, if you dare to play any tricks,
