The two men walked for another half day, and near noon, both stopped at the same time. At this time, the two of them stood behind a large tree that required at least five people to hug each other, and looked ahead.
In front of the two of them appeared wooden houses, covered with vines, and a road made of cobblestones, about two meters wide, winding forward.
The wind blows.
The leaves rustled and the vines that covered the wooden houses swayed slightly.
Shaded by the lush foliage, even though it was noon, it still gave people a cold feeling, no people, no animals, not even the sound of insects, surrounded by vibrant trees, those wooden houses gave people a dead silence.
Qin Shuang and Xiao Chuang suddenly tightened their muscles, and the hairs on their bodies stood up, and the two of them faintly heard the singing and the girl's pleasant laughter, but the sound was weak and inaudible, but it could be faintly heard, it seemed to come from those wooden houses, but they couldn't determine which wooden house it was.
Qin Shuang's heart was full of alarms at this moment, and there was an unsettling atmosphere that surged like a tidal wave. The silence of the town, the faint sound of singing and laughter, everything is full of weirdness.
Qin Shuang turned his head, looked at Xiao Chuang, and said, "There were people living here?"
"I don't know. Xiao Chuang's head shook like a rattle, and then added, "I haven't been here." ”
Qin Shuang frowned slightly, and said in a low voice: "Are there any aborigines on this big island where we are located?"
"No!" Speaking of this, Xiao Chuang glanced at the town in front of him, swallowed in a dry throat, and said, "At least, I haven't heard that people live here. ”
"This island is so big, why is it uninhabited?"
"Although this island is big, it has an average aura, and there is no shortage of places to live in the Blue Sea Continent, and there are many demon beasts here. ”
"In this way, this is an uninhabited island. But where did this town come from?"
"Perhaps...... It was a long, long time ago, for example, in ancient times, right?" Xiao Chuang's tone was extremely uncertain.
"Check it out!"
Qin Shuang walked out from behind the big tree, stepping on the cobblestone pavement under his feet, and walked towards the town, Xiao Chuang followed nervously behind him.
"Hiss......"
Qin Shuang took a breath and stood under a two-story wooden building, raising his head to look up. There was a smell of tea in the air, and that smell of tea was coming down from her head.
There was a balcony enclosed by a wooden fence above her head, and after a moment of silence, she walked towards the gate of the wooden building. There were three stone steps in front of the door, covered with green moss, and she stepped on the steps and tapped her fingers on the door.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
The faintly heavy sound of the wooden door echoing through the silent town, but there was no response from inside.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
Qin Shuang knocked on the door again, but there was still no one answering inside, so Qin Shuang opened his mouth and called:
"Anyone?"
"Anyone, anyone, anyone......"
The sound of the piano reverberates through the town, fading away and eventually disappearing. There was still no one in the wooden building, and no one in the town came out, only the faint singing and the girl's laughter were intermittent.
Qin Shuang put his palm on the door and gently pushed it away, but the door was not bolted, and the door was gently pushed open. Qin Shuang stood on the steps, did not walk in immediately, but squinted his eyes slightly, looking inside, the furniture inside was very simple, let Qin Shuang recall the furniture style of the ancient period seen in the classics, Qin Shuang stood outside for another three breaths, and called again to the door:
"Is there anyone? Passers-by ask for a glass of water. ”
The sound echoed through the house for a breath and dissipated.
Qin Shuang walked towards the door.
"Piano Double ......"
Xiao Chuang's trembling voice sounded behind him, Qin Shuang didn't stop, stepped into the house, and looked around. The surroundings were spotless, as if they had just been cleaned, and the wooden floor was waxed and the light was recognizable. Qinshuang's eyes fell on a wooden staircase and walked towards it. Qin Shuang did not deliberately slow down, his feet stepped on the wooden floor, making an "empty" sound.
Coming to the bottom of the stairs, Qin Shuang did not stop, but stepped directly on the stairs, and walked down the stairs towards the second floor, the wooden stairs under his feet made a "squeak" sound, making Xiao Chuang, who was following behind, pale.
Ascending to the second floor, Qin Shuang's eyes turned, and he landed on a door, which was now ajar, and the sunlight poured in through the half-open door, through which he could see a wooden balcony outside, and the wooden fence was covered with vines, and on the balcony was a small round table, and a wooden chair was placed on each side of the table. Qin Shuang walked to the door, reached out and gently pushed the half-open door open, his eyes fell on the table, there was a teapot on the table, and on each side of the teapot was a cup of tea, the tea in that cup was still steaming, and the fragrance of tea permeated from the teacup.
Qin Shuang walked into the balcony, sat on a wooden chair, took the teacup and put it under her nose and sniffed it, her face was intoxicated, but then she put the cup of tea on the table and did not drink it. Xiao Chuang also walked into the balcony, sat opposite Qin Shuang, and just picked up the teacup in front of him, he saw Qin Shuang put down the teacup again, so he hurriedly put it down, and asked in a low voice:
"What's wrong?"
Qin Shuang shook his head, stood up, and came to the fence of the balcony, holding the railing with one hand, and looked towards the town. The whole town is very clean and green, like a paradise.
"Hoo ......"
A cold wind blew.
The clothes on Qinshuang's body fluttered up, which actually made Qinshuang feel a trace of coldness. This couldn't help but make Qin Shuang's heart jump violently, now that her ontological cultivation had reached the eighth layer of the Martial God, it was already cold and hot under normal circumstances, how could it be just a gust of wind blowing, which made her feel cold?
Qin Shuang stood there quietly, like a stone sculpture. She recalled the feeling just now, and a trace of solemnity gradually appeared in her eyes.
The coldness is not a physical feeling, but a feeling of coldness from the heart.
Qin Shuang looked back at the two cups of tea on the table, and saw that the two cups of tea were still steaming, which confirmed her inference.
Qin Shuang retreated from the balcony into the wooden building, walked towards a door, stood in front of the door, reached out and gently pushed the door open, inside was a very clean bedroom. After scanning the circle and not noticing, Qin Shuang walked towards the other door, stretched out his hand and gently pushed the door open, inside was a study, with a neat study on the wide desk, and a piece of paper spread out in the center of the table.
