Seventeen minutes later, Lu Zhuoer, Lin Fei and others finally arrived at Dazao Village.

It seems to be the "blessing" of the eldest sister Wang who came halfway, Xiao Fang never made any unexpected moves, and she was very quiet in the car for the second half of the journey, as quiet as a walking corpse. Mingming snuggled in her arms, her little hands clutched her mother's palm, probably afraid that she would throw herself away again. After the bus stopped at the only station in Panjiawan, Lin Fei fumbled for a long time before finding a family who rented a three-wheeled motorcycle that solicited customers, and rode a few people to Dazao Village.

The people of Panjiawan had a subtle change in their faces when they saw Ming Ming's mother and son, and Lu Zhuoer found out and secretly ordered someone to investigate, but until he arrived in Dazao Village, he couldn't get any valuable clues. At this time, the archway engraved with the three words of Dazao Village is already close in front of you.

Different from the imagination, this is a new village with new buildings, and it looks like a typical kind of small western-style houses that the villagers collectively renovated after making a fortune after taking advantage of the spring breeze of reform and opening up. The population of the village is not much, but there are about 20 households, but although the sparrows are small, they are complete, and the village is equipped with various living facilities, even billiard rooms and Internet cafes, which can basically meet all basic needs.

Seeing the three-wheeled motorcycle stopped at the gate of Dazao Village, the general team of dart masters may breathe a sigh of relief, but the dart masters who have been safed are even more cautious, just because they have always been taught to be more careful the closer they get to the end, because before dawn is often the darkest time of the day, no one knows when their enemies will appear and give them a fatal blow, not to mention, they are now only arriving at Dazao Village instead of Dragon City, which is still in the nearby mountains.

Lin Fei stopped the car, first helped Xiao Fang and Ming Ming out of the car, and then picked up Lu Zhuoer and put him in an automatic wheelchair. Lu Zhuoer looked at Xiao Fang's face attentively, but at this time, her face seemed to be brushed with a layer of paste, and there was no expression at all. Lu Zhuoer's brows furrowed slightly because of this change. He looked at his watch and said, "Ms. Xiao, we have completed eighty percent of your commission, and then we are going to go to Dragon City, may I ask if the person who contacted you to answer you has arrived at this time?" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Fang slowly turned her head, and then shook her head.

"No news?" Lu Zhuoer wondered.

Xiao Fang said: "There is no one to answer. ”

Didn't answer someone? Lu Zhuoer and Lin Fei looked at each other, Lin Fei seemed to want to ask something, but was suppressed by Lu Zhuoer, Lu Zhuoer said: "Then we will send you to Dragon City now, and when we get there, our task will be completed." ”

The corners of Xiao Fang's mouth twitched slightly, revealing a smile that seemed to be sarcastic. Lu Zhuoer felt as if he heard this woman say, it is not up to you to complete it or not. He closed his eyes, then became convinced that he was just imagining.

Xiao Fang said, "Okay." Stretched out his hand and grabbed Ming Ming on the side.

A burst of music sounded, Lin Fei glanced at his mobile phone and said, "Sorry, I'll answer the phone first." Then he made a gesture and signaled that the dart master lurking in the shadows was responsible for Lu Zhuoer's safety before he stepped aside and picked up the phone, "Hey, I'm, yes, I'm on a business trip, ...... eating" He said something that seemed to be a very ordinary word, but the person who was a member could understand that it was a message transmission intertwined with codes.

All people have been mobilized...... Dazao Village is divided into upper and lower villages...... Dragon City is in the mountains...... Not yet ...... Found it, I have gone to the village to investigate...... Don't act rashly. After Lin Fei finished greeting the last few words, he walked back and said, "I'm sorry that my buddies are very nagging, they all said that they were on a business trip, and they kept talking, so you have been waiting for a long time." ”

Xiao Fang smiled slightly and said, "It's okay, it's all here, it's not a little bit of time." He asked Lu Zhuoer again, "Mr. Lu, are we leaving now?" ”

Lu Zhuoer changed his mind and said, "Don't worry, I see it's already afternoon, and I haven't eaten anything on the plane, since you haven't made an appointment with someone, why don't we have a meal before entering the mountain." ”

Xiao Fang glanced at Ming Ming, then turned his head and said, "I don't have any opinion." ”

Several people entered Dazao Village together and found a farmhouse. The owner of the farmhouse is a fat middle-aged woman, who is very attentive when she sees a guest coming, and is selling her own free-range chicken and selling local products: "By the way, there is an ancient city called Longcheng on this mountain, historical monuments, you can come to the right place, now is the best time to see." ”

Lu Zhuoer said while looking at the plasticized menu: "What age are the monuments, and what are they there?" ”

The middle-aged woman said happily: "It seems to be the Tang Dynasty or some dynasty, anyway, the legend is that there is a place where dragons have come out, called ...... By the way, it's called the Dragon's Lair, and then I asked some master to build a city and named it Dragon City, and we often went to play when we were young. ”

Lu Zhuoer flipped over the menu, as if casually asking, "I heard that there is a village above?" ”

The middle-aged woman was stunned for a moment, and then said, "Oh, this is not the first time you have come, have you?" Yes, there is an old village above, we are a new village here, the old people are not used to living in this kind of new house, and they are reluctant to land, so they still live there, like me, the younger ones have come down, and the younger ones go to Panjiawan to study or something, and some go to work in the province. ”

Lu Zhuoer put down the menu, looked the middle-aged woman up and down, and said, "Sister, how to go to Dragon City, what should I pay attention to?" ”

The middle-aged woman smiled: "I'll draw a picture for you when I go back, it's easy to find." Note? If you can pay attention to anything, be careful when walking on mountain roads, don't pick up wild mushrooms to eat, that's all. Dragon City is very safe, the government said that Dragon City will be developed in two years, and when you come back to play, it will not be as quiet as it is now, but you are ...... like this" obviously noticed the problem of Lu Zhuoer's legs.

Lu Zhuoer smiled: "I'm just here to relax, mainly because they want to go." He said, "Sister, it's good to bring us ten steamed buns, and by the way, can you borrow them from your kitchen?" ”

The dart master walks in unfamiliar places is the most careful, neither do you live in wild shops nor eat things that you don't know how to come from, and the people of the Lu family maintain this tradition very well. Seeing that the boss was a little unhappy, Lin Fei immediately stuffed some money to the other party, and the face over there looked good again. When Lin Fei was preparing in the back kitchen, Xiao Fang was reading a villain book with him, and Lu Zhuoer was reading it with his mobile phone. The signal here is not very good, and it takes a long time for the text message to be sent out to prompt a success, not to mention the use of WeChat on the Internet, which is obviously a very dangerous and uncontrollable factor. Lu Zhuoer didn't know at this time that the walkie-talkie specially equipped by Chengqi was also greatly interfered with here, otherwise he would definitely find that the whole thing was weird, and at this time, he still just thought that the dignitary who was chasing Xiao Fang's mother and son was the biggest threat to his side.

After eating a late lunch and waiting for a while, Lu Zhuoer never waited for Lu Yingyi's news, but saw that the sky had changed color, dark clouds covered the sky, and it looked like it was going to rain. This kind of mountainous place, once it rains, it will be difficult to leave, Lu Zhuoer thought about it again and again, and finally could only make up his mind and enter the mountain immediately.

Lin Fei said: "Second boss, you just wait here for us to come back, I just connected with the four groups of people in the village, they will be responsible for protecting you, I will take the two groups of people up, it will be fine, in case there is any danger, it is good to have a response." ”

Lu Zhuoer thought that this was also a good way, so he said: "Then you be more careful, send people down, let my brother come down too, let's not worry about anything else, this commission will end here." Lu Zhuoer's heart went up and down, and the more time passed, the more he felt that there was weirdness everywhere here, it was obviously a peaceful and peaceful scene, but there was nothing wrong with anywhere.

Lin Fei nodded: "Don't worry, it's on me." ”

Lu Zhuoer sent him and Xiao Fang's mother and son to the entrance of the village and said: "Ms. Xiao and Ming Ming will be handed over to you, in case you encounter anything, remember one thing, there is nothing in this world that cannot be discussed or discussed, and it is nothing to suffer a loss." "There is still half a sentence, nothing is more important than life but it is not spoken. Lu Zhuoer looked at Xiao Fang's mother and son, obviously looking at the villain book with his head down, while Xiao Fang looked at the mountain with a pair of empty eyes, and his expression was a little creepy.

Don't think about it. Lu Zhuoer stopped his imagination and said, "Go, I'll wait for you here." Lin Fei smiled at him, made an "OK" gesture, and set off with the people.

Lin Fei, then twenty-eight years old, born in a family of traditional Chinese medicine, the backbone of the first batch of employees recruited by Chengqi, has a thick and fine personality, has a pair of bright eyes, he has a girlfriend who has been in love for many years, has met his parents, and is ready to get married on the National Day next year, and this is the last and most vivid side he left in Lu Zhuoer's impression. When Lu Zhuoer saw him again, his pupils had dilated, and the last expression of disbelief and horror was left on his face, the back of his head was smashed, and he fell into a dirty mud pit, ending his short life.

At this time, Lu Yingyi and Chang Yule had already touched the village in the mountains. Compared with the Dazao Village below, this village is much older, full of a sense of vicissitudes that have been washed by the years, but strangely, compared to the modern Dazao Village, this ancient village gives people a more peaceful feeling, a taste called fireworks in the world. Lu Ying thought about it, yes, there seems to be more of a "someone has lived" feeling here than below.

He and Chang Yule Bing split up and cautiously searched separately, but soon found that there didn't seem to be anyone alive other than them. The village was larger than the one below, with about forty households, which means that at least a hundred or so people lived here. The houses in the village looked like they were from the first half of the last century, there was no running water in the house, but there were bicycles, light bulbs and the like, and he saw a tiny old-fashioned color TV in one of the largest houses. It's incredible, even though there is already an Internet café in the village below, it is still frozen in time at some stage in the past. Lu Ying saw a star calendar pasted on the rusty window, but unfortunately the part indicating the date had been torn off, and the remaining stars could only see a black and miserable face because they had been smoked all year round.

Lu Ying searched one by one, the things in the house are still there, some people are still drying clothes, but after years of wind and sun, those things have become rags, some people still have rice in the rice bowl at home, but it has long been moldy, and there are a few bowls of dishes on the table of a family that can no longer see the contents, but there is no one in the house. As soon as Lu Ying opened the water tank, even the moss had dried up, and it seemed that this place had been abandoned for a long time. Where have all the people in the village gone? Why is such an abandoned village here?

Chang Yule soon appeared from the other end and beckoned Lu Yingyi over: "Chief dart, look here." ”

Lu Yingyi followed him into a house, and looking out of the back window of that house, Lu Yingyi saw a mountain road, and then looked up, and could faintly see some tall buildings towering in the jungle. Is that Dragon City? At this moment, Lu Ying suddenly pricked up her ears, and then quickly lay on the ground and listened for a while: "Someone is coming." He gestured to Chang Yule, and the two of them jumped out of the window with agility and hid in the corner of the family's backyard. After a while, Lu Ying heard the footsteps of at least five or six people.
