I don't know how long it took, Xiao Qiong woke up, opened her eyes, and the car was still driving. The headlights shine in front of the black ink, and there seems to be no end to it. No, according to the driving time, there is no reason to drive for more than ten hours and not reach the scenic spots in the mountains of northern Thailand.

The sense of foreboding is even stronger. The driver, Ba Song, frowned, and hung a knife-shaped face. He just grabbed the steering wheel and was silent. Just when Xiao Qiong was puzzled, there was no road ahead. The highway leads to a mountain col, and it turns out to be a "dead-end road"!

Pa Song scolded in Thai, and no one could understand it. Yu Ji's expression showed unprecedented tension. At this time, she is no longer the carefree little girl. On her shoulders, she is also tied to the safety of the whole vehicle.

There was a slight noise in the carriage. Yu Ji said in a soft voice: "Don't panic, everyone, you may be lost." Big Brother Ba Song will find a way to get us to our destination. ”

The bus made a difficult U-turn in a narrow space and headed for a country road. At this time, all the people in the car don't know where they are going. Anyway, the destination of the tour is the mountains of northern Thailand, and then go to Phuket for two days to bask in the sun, and if you can go to the sea water to swim and explore the underwater world, of course, it is better.

As long as the car is moving, the destination will always arrive. All the people in the car seemed to have forgotten the allusion of "going in the opposite direction". In fact, they have long deviated from the established route and sailed towards a death zone!

For the first time, Xiao Qiong felt her own incompetence. Zhouyi prediction is no longer effective. Before going out, the biggest mistake was not to check how to convert the time in Bangkok, Thailand and Beijing time. The I Ching prediction technique was invented by the ancestors of the Chinese, and when it comes to a foreign land, does it still work?

Without the support of metaphysics, Xiao Qiong is like a bird that has lost its wings. This feeling arose when he pinched his fingers. As soon as the idea of prediction moved, he couldn't help but secretly complain. What's the use of just knowing you're safe? The car is full of people. Plus Mike, the driver Ba Song, and the tour guide Yuji, the lives of eighteen people!

The car drove for more than an hour through a long tunnel. The tunnel is about 1,000 meters long, dark, narrow, and seems to be in disrepair. From the roof of the tunnel, from time to time, water droplets hit the roof of the car. Passing through this long tunnel, there are still confused mountains ahead.

The road still stretches underfoot. The rolling hills stretch as far as the eye can see. I don't know how many turns the tour bus has made and how many slopes it has fallen. Eventually, a wide basin appeared in front of me - a very large village appeared in front of me.

The entrance to the village is narrow. The mountains on both sides are steep, and a giant archway in the middle is made of granite, and the beams read: Taoyuan Village. It should be taken from Tao Yuanming's "Peach Blossom Spring" meaning of "paradise". The font is traditional Chinese, and the pen is strong and rounded. Ba Song parked the car in front of the archway to rest, so that the passengers could get off the bus and go to the side of the road for convenience. Men are easy to do, but women are embarrassed.

"Brother Xiao Qiong, I'm afraid, can you accompany me?"

Li Ziwen looked pitiful. and Hong Qi, holding Li Ziwen's arm, also blushed. Xiao Qiong glanced at Dai Xiaoxiao and wanted to ask for her opinion. I didn't think that Dai Xiaoxiao couldn't hold it back, got up and said, "I'll go too." ”

The dawn has come. Xiao Qiong greedily breathed in the fresh air in the mountains. Not far away, the sound of girls peeing was heard. He blushed when he heard this. It was probably a day and a night in the car, and the others were also exhausted, so they all went down to the entrance of the village to stretch their legs and bend over, do some physical exercises, and stretch their muscles and bones. The lights of the bus shone brightly, and the traditional Chinese characters of "Taoyuan Village" were very dazzling in Xiao Qiong's eyes, and everything was in a dream: Did you return to China? How can there be Chinese characters?

After resting for more than half an hour, the sky was bright. The streetscape of Taoyuan is clearly presented in front of you: it is a small village with Hui architecture, located on a basin of about 10 square kilometers. All the buildings are white walls and gray tiles, with cornices and corners. However, the street plan is all two-way eight lanes, which is very spacious. Red lanterns are hung under the eaves on both sides of the street, creating a festive atmosphere.

Photographer Li Liang was deeply attracted by the beautiful scenery in front of him, and began to press the shutter again and again. Ding Lan proposed to go into the village to take a break. It's best to find a hotel and get a good night's sleep before leaving. It's been a tiring journey.

After a while, Yuji beckoned the tourists to get on the bus. Ba Song started the car and drove towards the center of Taoyuan Village. The strange thing is that the car drove for several minutes and there was not a single person in sight on the street, not even a dog or a chicken! In the shops along the street, some of the doors have been opened, and the goods inside the doors are neatly placed, but there is no figure in sight. In the parking spaces along the street, I occasionally saw a few cars, the body of which was very dusty, and it was obvious that they had not driven for a long time.

Finally I saw a hotel that read: Inn No. 6.

There was a cheer from the car. It's like a wanderer returning to his hometown. They need a bed so badly, they need a good night's sleep. Ba Song parked the car and let the tourists get off. Yuji constantly reminds everyone to take care of their luggage and belongings and go to the hotel to rest.

Xiao Qiong was the first to push open the door of Inn No. 6. The door was blank, and there was no one inside.

"Anyone?"

He shouted several times in a row, but no one responded. I checked upstairs and downstairs, and the whole inn was empty! The bedding in the hostel is neatly laid out and well equipped. Unscrewed the tap, and the running water was covered with golden rust. It took several minutes for the tap water to return to normal.

It would be nice to have a bed! Let's find a place to sleep first. It's a big deal to get on the bus first and then buy a ticket, and then take the initiative to give money when the host arrives. People who are eager to sleep make good use of the upstairs and downstairs rooms. Without the guidance of a tour guide, tourists quickly formed a free combination: Dai Lao Liu and Zhang Ye, Hong Qi and Li Ziwen, Xiao Qiong and Dai Xiaoxiao. Ling Xiaoyun and Ding Lan, Li Liang and Luo Jian, Li Ziwei and Ah Wei, Li Guangliang and Chen Long, Ito Shaobo and Ba Song. Mike and Aki each have one. Eighteen people, without the consent of the host, occupied ten rooms in the hotel at once. The first and second floors of the inn are full.

They slept from morning to afternoon, and the sun had set. Having slept enough, the guests began to get up one after another, but there was still no waiter and no host. Xiao Qiong couldn't help but be shocked in her heart: What kind of place is this? Could it be that you have traveled through time and space to another world?

Walk out of the inn and onto the street. Still empty. The whole village was as if it were asleep. Didn't see any animals! The plants are very luxuriant. The large trees on both sides of the street are leafy, and the weeds grow taller than people.

What the hell is this place? So shiny buildings, beautiful landscapes, but no one lives? Where have all these people gone? The doubts in my heart are getting bigger and bigger. Xiao Qiong took out her mobile phone and wanted to make a call to Shangguan Yun or Xue'er. However, there is no cell phone signal!

The mobile phone of the global communication has no signal in this ghost place? The fear came even stronger. Xiao Qiong quietly clenched her fists, feeling that a real battle had begun.
