Chapter 168: Barren Mountain
At dawn, Lao Wu woke up Yue Jiu Nian and Yue Jiu Disaster with a black face, because he was going to continue his journey.
Yue Jiu Nian was a little dazed, so he still didn't look like he was awake when he was woken up, and the same was true for Yue Jiu Disaster, and the two of them yawned and followed the team.
Jiang Yan wanted to laugh when he saw their appearance, but he didn't really dare to laugh, after all, a person had just died in their team last night, and it didn't seem good to laugh at this time.
Because of Ah Liang's death, everyone lowered their heads and didn't talk much when they were on the road, but in such a gloomy atmosphere, after walking for a long time, they finally walked out of this forest, and then came to a barren mountain.
This mountain is continuous, towering, green and overgrown, and there is not even a mountain road except grass or trees, so you can tell at a glance that no one has ever been here.
After Yue Jiu Nian entered this mountain, he felt a little inappropriate, because the yin qi on this mountain was even heavier than the yin qi in the forest before!
Not long after entering the mountain, it was already afternoon, but it was still broad daylight, but a large white fog suddenly appeared in the mountain, blocking everyone's view.
Looking at the sudden dense fog on the mountain, everyone lifted their spirits and walked one by one, for fear that they would get lost in the fog.
"I'll go, what's the situation with this mountain?"
Yue Jiu Nian quietly talked to Yue Jiu Disaster while drinking water, and Yue Jiu Disaster also had a solemn face, she said: "I don't know, but these fogs, I feel a little wrong." ”
As soon as she finished saying this, she suddenly heard someone talking in front of her, and it was not just one or two people, but the voices of many people, and she also heard some gongs and drums and firecrackers, as if someone was doing a happy event, the sound was very noisy.
"What's going on?"
Yue Jiu Nian and Yue Jiu Disaster listened to these voices, and when they were puzzled, the fog in front of them suddenly dispersed, and then revealed a village in front of them.
When Yue Jiunian saw the village in front of him, he felt a 'gurgle~' in his heart, but after the next second, he showed a sneer.
The village in front of it seems to have come out of thin air, the village is very lively at this time, people come and go, every household seems to be celebrating the New Year, setting off firecrackers, fireworks, and even beating gongs and drums, lion dances or something, especially lively, as if they are doing some great event.
And Lao Wu and Lao Hei all showed surprised eyes when they saw this village that appeared out of thin air, as if they were thinking about what the situation of this village was, and there would be such a village in such a big mountain.
Lao Wu stopped the team's footsteps on the spot, and he said to Lao Hei a little nervously: "Brother, what is the situation, how can there be a village here?"
Lao Hei also looked shocked, he paused before saying, "I don't know, the last time I came here was a few years ago, and I didn't encounter any villages at that time, did I go in the wrong direction again?"
As he spoke, he turned around to find Uncle Zhao: "Uncle Zhao, take a look--"
Uncle Zhao had already stood by their side, and Uncle Zhao was also confused, because he had been here before, so he knew that there was no village in this mountain, he twisted his eyebrows and said: "Impossible, there is no village here at all, there should be nothing wrong with your road, I still remember the road, it was this way." ”
"What about the village and those people in front of you?"
Lao Hei stared at the village in front of him and said.
The village was only 100 meters away from them, so everyone saw a big stone tablet in front of them, with the words 'Zhangjia Village' engraved on it, and then there were houses in the back.
There were all people near the front of the house, and the laughter in the village made people feel very real, which made Lao Hei and the others feel very shocked.
Just when they were all standing in place and didn't dare to move because of the existence of the village, the fat man who was guarding Yue Jiunian and the others ran up from behind and said, "Brother, why don't you leave? What's wrong with the village in front? You don't dare to leave, is it a ghost village?"
When Lao Hei was discussing this matter just now, most of the people in the team heard it, so they didn't dare to talk casually, waiting for the boss to make a decision, but the fat man was at the back of the team, so he didn't know what the situation was now. The fat man pushed Jiang Yan, Yue Jiu Nian and Yue Jiu Disaster up and said, "What's wrong? Why don't you speak?"
Lao Hei and the others glanced back at the fat man, and then they didn't say a word, Uncle Zhao saw the current situation, so he took out a small compass from his pocket.
He said: "Well, I don't think there should be a mistake this time, but I'm not sure if it's true, if we don't make a mistake this time, then there is something wrong with the village in front." ”
"It's obvious that there is something wrong with the village in front of you. ”
Lao Hei couldn't help but say: "Where did you say such a barren mountain, where did you come from?"
Uncle Zhao didn't answer Lao Hei's words this time, just glanced at him, and then pointed the compass in the direction of the village, and then handed it forward!
The compass was originally used to measure feng shui and yin and yang, so many people who know a little bit of the art of disambiguation like to use the compass.
It's just that when Uncle Zhao handed the compass in the direction of the village, the compass actually began to rotate wildly, and the pointer on it couldn't stop at all, as if it was broken, and kept rotating.
When Uncle Zhao saw this situation, he looked back at Lao Hei and Lao Wu in shock, and the two people behind him also looked back at Uncle Zhao with shocked eyes.
Seeing this, Uncle Zhao's eyebrows, which were already tightly wrinkled, are now wrinkled even tighter, he opened his mouth and said: "It should be right, the last time I came, the compass kept turning, and the place we were looking for should be in front, but if we want to go over, we have to pass through this strange village, because we can't get around, hey~ I see that this village appeared so suddenly, it seems that Bacheng is a difficult ghost village." ”
After Uncle Zhao said this, he put the compass away, and said, "How about it?
"This, Uncle Zhao, are you sure that this village is a ghost village? In broad daylight, how could the ghost come out so early? Don't scare me~"
When the fat man heard Uncle Zhao's words, he looked at the village in front of him a little scared and said.
Uncle Zhao's words just now were said to Lao Hei, Lao Hei hesitated slightly after listening to Uncle Zhao's words, and finally nodded and said resolutely: "Go, of course we have to go, we finally came here, and people have been caught, is it just because of a ghost village to turn around?"
Lao Wu also looked unwilling, he said: "It doesn't matter if he is a ghost village, I have been to so many places, and it is not that I have never seen ghosts, what demons and monsters I have not seen Lao Wu?"
When the fat man heard the words of the two of them, he wanted to say something, but before he could speak, Lao Hei took the lead and walked forward, and he said as he walked: "What are you afraid of, you have all followed me for so long, what else have you not seen?" ”
In fact, the people in the team are no longer novices, and they have more or less encountered some special situations, so when they see this ghost village, they are still a little scared, but they also have their own life-saving things, so they will not admit it at this time.
Under the leadership of Lao Hei, no one in the team flinched, and everyone set off cautiously to the village, including Yue Jiu Nian and Yue Jiu Calamity, as well as Jiang Yan, who no longer cared about life and death.
Before entering the village, Lao Hei was still explaining: "Everyone be careful, don't talk to the people in the village, don't look at them, follow me, I know the way, as long as you pass through this ghost village, you will definitely be able to reach your destination." ”
Yue Jiunian smiled slightly when she heard Lao Hei's words, she turned her head to Jiang Yan behind her and said, "Hey, Jiang Yan, are you afraid of ghosts?"
After Jiang Yan got along with these people for a few days, he had already guessed what they were doing, so when he heard what they just said, he was also a little scared, but when he thought that he was about to die, he was not very afraid, he showed a wry smile and said: "Hey, what if you are afraid, you know, I estimate that I will not live long." ”
As he spoke, he looked curiously ahead, and then after a while he realized, "Oh, how do you know my name?" I don't think I told you my name. ”
Yue Jiu Nian and Yue Jiu Disaster's faces are still in disguise, so Jiang Yan didn't recognize Yue Jiu Nian and them, but after he met Yue Jiu Nian and them in the team, he just chatted with them and didn't take the initiative to say his name, so now when he heard that Yue Jiu Nian actually knew his name, he was very surprised.
When Yue Jiu Nian heard Jiang Yan's words, he smiled at him mysteriously and did not speak, while Yue Jiu Nian said with a smile: "Hehe~ Well, this is a secret, you will know it when the time comes." ”
Jiang Yan felt very suspicious when he heard their words, he was a little skeptical that he had introduced himself before, and also told them his name, but he forgot about it, so he didn't remember.
But he finally thought about it for a long time, and still didn't remember that he had told the name to Yue Jiunian and the two, he said: "No, we don't talk much, I remember that I didn't seem to have told you my name, could it be that I have been too nervous recently and have lost my memory?"
"Hehe~ Actually, you don't have amnesia, your name is really what you told us yourself~"
Yue Jiu Calamity was still thinking about whether to confess their true identities to Jiang Yan now, but after seeing Jiang Yan's current appearance, he wanted to continue to tease him.
"Yes, no, why can't I remember?"
Jiang Yan grabbed his messy hair with his hand and thought about it for a long time, but he still couldn't remember.
