There is no way out of the mountains and rivers, and the willows and flowers are bright and another village.

Sunset.

There is scarlet hanging in the sky, and the scarlet sunset gives people a dazzling, uncomfortable feeling.

It's going to get dark soon.

Under the blood clouds of the setting sun, a large area of paddy fields is planted with green grass, which stretches far ahead to a village.

I took a breath of air through my mouth and nose, and the rich earthy fragrance swirled between my lungs, which was refreshing.

The world in front of me is too real.

Jin An and the old Taoist priest appeared in a paddy field.

The old Taoist priest screamed and hurriedly went ashore from the muddy rice field.

The old Taoist priest took off his cloth shoes, and grabbed a handful of oily and tender weeds from the edge of the ridge.

Tossing back and forth like this, the old Taoist priest's robe, trouser legs have been wet, stained with mud and water, the old Taoist priest has no choice but to pick up his trousers, roll up the Taoist robe and tie it around his waist, which looks nondescript.

"Little brother, could it be that this is the disappeared Shen Jiabao?" the old Taoist priest looked at the other world in front of him in amazement.

Because of the relationship between a copper coin pressed under his tongue, the old Taoist priest has a strange voice, and every time he speaks, he always unconsciously brings a cocked tongue sound.

The sound sounded weird.

At this time, Jin An also walked out of the paddy field and walked on the ridge.

It's just that Jin An didn't immediately walk towards Shenjiabao not far away, but turned around and walked back along the ridge.

As a result, he couldn't go out after the tea time.

Always wandering around the paddy fields outside the village.

There is no end in sight.

It stands to reason that when he goes back, he should go back

"Ghost hitting the wall?"

"Ghost-lost?"

Jin An tried to walk to the left and right again, but he still couldn't get out.

It seems that you can only go forward and walk into Shenjiabao.

"Lao Dao, have you noticed, it's daytime, it should be the busy time for farming, the green grass in the paddy field is growing gratifying, but no one has seen it?"

The two of them walked along the muddy and slippery ridges, picked up a lump of mud with one foot, and walked towards Shenjiabao all over the mud.

Along the way, no trace of Feng Zhutou and Monk Pu Zhi was found.

I didn't even notice the footprints of the two of them.

Murmuring –

There is the sound of flowing water.

Jin An and the old Taoist priest walked over and found that it was a small river flowing through the Rao River.

Poof!

Suddenly, there was a splashing sound.

"Little brother, listen!

The old Taoist priest just wanted to impulsively chase in the direction of the sound source, but before the old Taoist priest could chase him, something had already floated down the upper reaches of the river.

The river quickly approached with the corpse of a dead black dog.

The carcass of the black dog had swelled and decayed, and there were a large number of white fat maggots burrowing through the belly, densely packed.

Hey?

Jin An sighed slightly.

After the death of the dog in this world, it is also the feudal superstition to throw the dog corpse into the river, can't it be buried?

"That's not right, little brother, we just heard the sound of falling into the water, but why does this black dog corpse look like it has been soaked in water for a long time?"

The old Taoist priest's puzzled voice interrupted Jin An's thinking.

After that, Jin An and the old Taoist priest chased to the place where the sound of falling water was heard before, which was the river embankment in the back village of Chenjiabao.

When they arrived, naturally nothing was found.

And after chasing all the way, there were no other drifting objects in the river.

"It's really strange, could it be that the sound of falling into the water just now is really the sound of throwing the corpse of a black dog?"

"But who lost it?"

The old Taoist priest was puzzled.

"This place is full of weirdness, let's go, it seems that only by entering the ghost village of Shenjiabao can we know what the situation is, and only then can we find the other people who are missing. ”

Jin An took the old Taoist priest and prepared to enter Shenjiabao.

I don't know.

Before the two entered the village, they had just arrived at the entrance of the village, and they saw a rotten cloth bag hanging on the crooked neck tree on an old tree with a crooked neck at the entrance of the village.

Perhaps it was because the wind and sun had been exposed for a long time, and the cloth bag had rotted out, revealing a black mass that resembled animal hair inside.

"The cat is hanging on the tree, the dog is going to flow with the water, and I haven't entered Shenjiabao yet, and I saw the black dog corpse in the river on the way, and I saw the cat corpse hanging on the tree, little brother, how do I feel that this is a bad omen?"

"I haven't entered the village yet, and I already feel like a person lying on my stomach on my back, and I'm blowing cool air on the back of my neck, and there is a cool air that rushes straight to my head... After entering the village, you can't see anything more terrifying?"

The old Taoist priest made a bitter face.

The mood is a bit pessimistic.

Jin An looked at the old Taoist priest speechlessly: "Old god stick, look at your bitter face, do you know what I am thinking of now?"

"What?"

"When the evening comes, I think you may need a teacher. ”

The old god stick was angry: "Little brother, you are obviously scolding the old way, I can't think of it!"

After such an interruption by Jin An, the pessimism of the old Taoist priest was swept away, and Chang Wei and Laifu scolded all the way into the village.

......

Shenjiabao is a Zhuangzi surrounded by high earth walls.

These walls were used both to keep wild beasts from entering the village at night and to prevent bandits from descending the mountain to raid the village.

The farther away from the Yamen, the more common this kind of Zhuangzi surrounded by high walls is, and even the entire Zhuangzi is full of men and women.

Zhuangzi has two gates, the gate at the entrance of the village is sealed and cannot enter, and Jin An and the old Taoist priest enter the gate of the fort in the back village.

The door was not closed, leaving room for a single person to walk through.

When I entered the fort, I saw that the villagers' houses were mottled and dilapidated.

It looks like it's been a long time since it's been lived.

It seems very cold and quiet.

It's an empty village with ten rooms and ten empty rooms.

Walking along the road, except for the dead silence and dust, I didn't see a single villager, let alone find the missing Feng Zhutou and Pu Zhi monks.

And after such a delay, the sky overhead was almost completely dark.

This Shen Jiabao is too quiet, too calm.

"Little brother, this is too quiet, isn't it?"

"Did Feng Zhutou and the others enter the fort? Could it be that they have not entered the Shen family fort?"

"If you really come in, after such a short time, even if you really come across something unclean, people can't be killed right away, and there will be some commotion, right?"

The old Taoist priest muttered.

Because Shenjiabao was uninhabited, it was too quiet, and the space was silent, so even if the old Taoist priest muttered softly, it actually had an echo around him.

Just when the old Taoist priest's voice echoed, Jin An didn't have time to answer, suddenly!

The voice of a young boy rang out over the calm of this undead village.

"I'm leaving, A-Qing. ”

"I'll play peek-a-boo with you tomorrow. ”

Then there was an echo of footsteps, which sounded crisply in this empty dead village, and the little boy jumped and walked home.

In the face of this sudden voice, it was rare to finally meet someone, Jin An and the old Taoist priest glanced at each other, and the two immediately chased after them.
