Chapter 350: Anecdote
Seeing that I hadn't spoken for a long time, Xu Feng leaned over to take a look, and when she saw the cross-word symbol with no signal displayed on my mobile phone, she shook her head.
"It was all within my expectations, and I guessed there would be no signal. ”
"It's not quite right. ”
I shook my head, "Obviously, when I was in the woods, Leng Xiangning called me and got through, why didn't I just go to this village?"
Hearing me say this, Xu Feng snorted and laughed, I don't quite understand where the laughter is, she can still laugh in such a serious situation.
"Kuang Heng, don't lie to me anymore, it's okay, I can understand what you think. ”
"Don't worry, I'm just tired and want to rest here, and when I'm almost done, we'll set off together. ”
Seeing Xu Feng so insistent, I didn't know what to say, so I could only nod and agree with what she said.
"Alright then, then you have to promise me that if we find something wrong, we will leave immediately, and we won't be able to stay here for long. ”
Xu Feng nodded, "Don't worry!"
The two villagers were kind to us and invited us in.
The woman from before took a bowl with some water in it.
Xu Feng stretched out her hand to take it, her hand turned, she looked back at me, seemed to understand something, and asked me to step forward first to investigate the water.
Although at first I saw something strange about the whole village, including the man and the woman, I couldn't see any traces of spirits on their bodies, they seemed to be all human.
This makes me a little strange, how could he suddenly appear in a village in this wilderness?
I took the bowl of water, shook it twice, and stared at it for a long time.
Even if you use Taoist spells to observe, this bowl of water doesn't show any abnormality, and it doesn't seem to be a problem.
The woman looked at me strangely and smiled a little awkwardly.
"I'm sorry, I thought that if this girl wanted to drink water, I would take a bowl, and you are thirsty too, so I'll go back and bring you another bowl. ”
I waved my hand, "No, just drink it from her." ”
handed the bowl of water to Xu Feng, she looked at me proudly, as if to say that there was nothing wrong with the water, I was too careful.
I still didn't dare to drink it, Xu Feng picked up a bowl of water, drank it all, and then wiped his mouth, feeling a lot better.
"Where are you from?"
"Our village is so barren that few people come. In these two months, it was the first time I saw a living person. ”
Xu Feng and I glanced at each other and before they could speak, the man on the side spoke first.
"Are you mistaken, didn't a couple come over last month......?
Halfway through speaking, the man suddenly stopped.
The woman gave him a look, and he stopped talking.
Looking at their situation, something was not quite right, I became more curious and asked.
"Let's hear what happened. ”
The woman sighed, "Actually, something has happened in this village recently. ”
"It's not that I don't want you to stay here longer, you can rest here for a night and leave quickly, there are monsters in this village. ”
When I heard her say that, I became even more curious.
If the two of them are human beings, including the rest of the people in the village, are not spirits, then the reason why the whole village is in this abnormal state must be that there are other spirits in the village.
I'm not too nosy, but since I've been here, I might as well know better.
If an accident really happens, Xu Feng and I will not be defenseless.
"You mean Ling?" Xu Feng glanced at me and pointed at me, "Then you look for him!"
Xu Feng, this woman, was quite decisive and sold me on the spot.
"This guy is still quite good at catching spirits, he is an onmyoji. ”
"Onmyoji?"
Both the woman and the man looked confused, as if they didn't understand the meaning of the word.
Xu Feng coughed twice and explained: "It's Mr. Yin and Yang, who specializes in catching spirits and monsters, but everything that is dead is in his charge." ”
I was a little helpless, and said as if I were the coroner.
The two of them nodded blankly, probably not knowing what the title meant.
In order to avoid getting darker and darker, I said directly: "You might as well tell me that if something terrible really appears in this village, maybe I can help." ”
"That's great!"
The man took my hand excitedly and gave the woman a tentative look.
Seeing that the woman nodded, he continued.
"Then I'll be blunt, if I do, don't scare away, you have to help our village!"
"Don't worry, we'll help you. ”
Without waiting for me to speak, Xu Feng agreed, and I was a little speechless.
"Since you agreed so quickly, why don't you help. ”
Xu Feng was a little embarrassed and scolded me.
"What's yours and mine, it's so clear, aren't the two of us together?"
The woman nodded at me and told me what had happened.
"That's right, our village used to be quite rich here, but just three months ago, one day, a great plague broke out. ”
"Speaking of which, it wasn't our village that broke out, but the next village, and a lot of people died. ”
"Wait. ”
When I heard about the next village, I suddenly thought of the part of the road I passed when I ran over before.
If it's a village, how can it not even have houses, all of them are tombstones?
The woman saw that I had interrupted him, and looked at me with some curiosity.
I shook my head and smiled politely, "It's okay, you can keep talking!"
The woman continued.
"When they died, they were hidden in mass graves in the suburbs. ”
"It's been a month since this incident, and it should have calmed down, but since two months ago, a fog suddenly rose around our village, and the whole village was surrounded. ”
"Someone in the village saw that in the fog outside, there seemed to be a shadow of someone. ”
"But we knew in our hearts that there were no people, and there were only mass graves surrounded by layers of graves outside. ”
"And one thing that is particularly strange is that since the plague incident, the people of the village, who have gone into the fog, have not returned. ”
"We can only grow some vegetables and fruits in the village for us to eat. ”
"The days passed, and there were curious people who went out of the village and never came back, and no one dared to go out again. ”
