That's why the food at the Peak Hotel is so plentiful but cheap, because these things are worthless here, and only a small amount of labor is required to pick or catch them.

For this kind of paradise-like life, the students couldn't help but be amazed, and even a little envious, only Lu Yang had a cold face, always highly vigilant, and the grass and trees were all soldiers, like a frightened bird, here, the more beautiful the scenery in his eyes, the more weird it was, and what was enviable was definitely traps and temptations, no matter what he saw, he didn't feel normal.

After the planting and animal husbandry area, it is completely primitive scenery, blue sky and white clouds, blue lake strange stones, from time to time a group of birds sing and fly overhead, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the grass and flowers are fragrant, which makes people forget to return.

If it weren't for Lu Yang hearing about Peak Village from Zhou Ling and Han Cheng, which made him have a lot of bad associations with these, he would have been immersed in this beauty like everyone else around him. But now he can't, and although he is surrounded by laughter, he has never been able to integrate himself into it.

…… Speaking of which, the people who developed the scenic spot of the mountaintop village were still very discerning, but the infrastructure has not kept up in the later stage, or there are some unknown reasons, so that this place has not been really lively, which cannot but be said to be a big pity.

However, it may be precisely for this reason that these original features have been kept so intact, once the roads of Mopan Mountain are really smooth, the traffic is developed, and the human invasion is here, all the beauty will cease to exist, and in its place, there will be a lot of garbage and stinky water.

Because the scenery along the way is so beautiful, the students have been taking pictures of each other, and for the sake of stopping and stopping, the mountain road to the peak village is not very long, but after more than an hour of trekking, the two small classes finally arrived at the end of the expedition: the site of the site of the mountain peak village.

From a distance, the whole hilltop village is hidden in a verdant green, but there is no figure in sight, there is no smell of fireworks, in addition to the stone roads and artificially stepped paths, there are clumps of wild grass, almost growing to more than one person's height, and surrounded by these wild grasses, are very dilapidated Qing Dynasty style buildings.

The grass gave the students a chance to hide and seek, and two counselors and three guides had to shout at the students to keep them from running away.

There is a stone fence on the periphery of the hilltop village, after entering the wall, it is the real ruins of the site, the houses in the ruins have obviously been abandoned for many years, plus disrepair, most of them have collapsed, although some of the surfaces are intact, but the dust on the windows and door frames and the almost completely rusty iron locks on the gate indicate that no one has lived here for a long time, so it will be called the ruins.

Regarding the origin of the mountaintop village, there are some records in the library collection of the Chinese Academy of Arts, which is roughly a large mansion built here in advance by a wealthy family in the late Qing Dynasty to escape the war, and moved here with all the clansmen, making it a paradise.

This record of origin has not been verified, and I don't know the source, and it vaguely seems to come from the mouth of some Mopan Mountain mountain people, so its authenticity cannot be really confirmed, but no one seems to care too much about these.

When contemporaries discovered this paradise site, only houses remained, and not a single living person was seen. Not only did there be no living person, but not even a single body was found in the whole village, although there was a cemetery on the high hill behind the hilltop village, all the coffin pits were empty, and I don't know if they had been visited by tomb robbers, and there was not a single corpse anyway.

Some of the valuable things in the mountaintop village have long been looted by the mountaineers who came here unintentionally before, and everything that can be taken away has been taken away, but because it is not easy to get out of the mountainside village, those bulky tables, chairs, benches, crockpots and the like have been left.

The local political axe has also considered preserving the whole village as a cultural heritage, but after the relevant experts have investigated and demonstrated, they feel that the age of these buildings is not very old, and the maintenance cost is too high, and the economic significance after the declaration is not very large.

At the beginning of the construction of the scenic spot, the investment was still very large, such as widening mountain roads, solar energy, wind power generation, water diversion projects, including the construction of mobile telecommunication base stations, etc. Of course, there is also a group of hilltop hotels that can accommodate more than 300 people.

After the completion of the first phase, the scenic spot released a large number of advertisements to the society, and even provided free accommodation coupons, etc., which was very lively for a while, but then the tourists did not come as imagined, the maintenance of the scenic spot could not make ends meet, a large number of employees were dismissed, and some mountain people were invited to live here for regular maintenance, resulting in this eventually becoming one of the countless abandoned development scenic spots in China.

As for why it has not been hot here, the relevant personnel involved in the construction of the scenic spot have been puzzled, but the fact that the investment failed is like this, and you are not allowed to think about what the reason is, and the construction projects planned behind the scenic spot have all to be suspended.

In recent years, if it weren't for the students of the China Academy of Arts who came to do cultural and historical site inspections in dozens of batches every year, most of them would have been permanently abandoned.

Although it was the first time for Iya and her classmates to visit, the scenery of the Peak Village was not unfamiliar to them, because the previous students had already painted every beautiful scenery in the Peak Village on canvas, and the school gallery could browse the excellent selection of these paintings, only this time they could come here to see it for themselves.

The beauty depicted in the paintings is far less than one-tenth of what you see in person, and this all-round feeling of being in it cannot be fully accurately expressed in even the most beautiful paintings.

"Remember the inspection discipline I announced to you earlier! It is not allowed to run around outside the team! It is not allowed to move the facilities in the house! We must try our best to maintain the original appearance of the hilltop village! Because not only will we come here to inspect the historical sites, but there will also be the next and next students' students who will come to ......" The male counselor held a loudspeaker in his hand and repeated the inspection discipline loudly to the students.

Although there were a lot of people around, it was also very lively, and it was broad daylight, with direct sunlight overhead, but Lu Yang didn't know why, looking at the mountaintop village in front of him, it was like seeing a demon cave, a demon cave that would devour everyone's life, which made his ominous premonition in his heart stronger and stronger, and even made his back chill a little, and his whole body kept shaking.

For a moment, Lu Yang even felt that the sun's rays suddenly became colder, and the laughter of the surrounding students became extremely distant.

This kind of scene made him can't help but think of the Strange Domain, and the advent of the Strange Domain is never without warning.

"Yin Yin, are you okay?, why do you have such a bad face?" Yi Ya walked over and asked 'Lin Yin' with concern, and at the same time woke Lu Yang from his contemplation.

"I'm fine. Lu Yang shook his head and reluctantly smiled at Yiya.

"There is still no signal on the mobile phone, what are the people in the mobile company doing?" Yiya held the mobile phone with a depressed face.

"Miss him?" Lu Yang teased Yi Ya through Lin Yin's mouth.

Yi Ya glanced at Lin Yin and did not reply to Lu Yang.

"All of them are grouped in advance and led by three tour guides to the mountaintop village for inspection! Today is the time for collective inspection, and tomorrow we will start to sketch freely in groups! Finally, I emphasize again! I must gather at the entrance of the village at five o'clock in the afternoon!" The male counselor continued to use the loudspeaker in his hand to announce the discipline and arrangements for the inspection to the students.

"Let's go, go into the village and investigate. "Yi Ya took Lin Yin's hand and walked towards the ten-person team they were in.

The hilltop village overlooks from the sky, is an oval-shaped collection of buildings, covering an area of not small, the diameter has reached at least more than 1,000 meters, and the periphery is a circle of stone walls about four meters high, which is relatively strong, and there are not many collapsed parts, making the hilltop village look more like a closed small city.

The houses in the center of the town are relatively tall, and even the glazed tiles and other materials used in the houses of the urban aristocracy at that time are transported from nowhere, these tall houses should be the places where the people of the clan live in status, and the further they go to the periphery, the lower the houses, and the materials used to build the houses are much worse, and then there are some places where livestock are kept in captivity.

The ruins of the hilltop village are indeed full of mysteries, but for some reason, they were artificially chosen to ignore the original central town, and they still sleep here.

The students were divided into three teams, each of about 10 people led by a guide, and although the routes were different, the three teams would go around the entire Peak Village. Although the hilltop village is not very large, but the village ancestral hall, small square, market, blacksmith shop, carpenter shop and so on are all available, it seems that the people who built this village at the beginning are very painstaking, but also brought a large number of people over, according to Lu Yang's preliminary estimate, so many building houses, at least can accommodate hundreds of people or even more than 1,000 people to live in it.

Although the people in the village are gone, there are still significant traces of their original life here from the decoration of many things.

"This is the ancestral hall of the hilltop village, the copper furnace used for the sacrifice has been stolen, and the spiritual tablets have been destroyed a lot, only this mural is the most intact. Guo Xiaohong, the youngest of the three tour guides, introduced the ten-person team to which Lin Yin and Yi Ya belonged.

"Why is it that the people on the mural have bare faces and no eyes, noses and mouths?" a student asked Guo Xiaohong, the tour guide.
