Chapter 784: A Desert Island and a Lonely Village

Xiao Xia said worriedly: "Boss! There shouldn't be no one on this island, right? ”

Han Xuening said: "The old man's words just now are indeed very strange, but with such a big island, I don't think there will be no one without it." Let's walk along the lake first and see if there is a way to the island. ”

The jade girl also said: "Now, it can only be like this. I hope we can get something out of this kind of island this time. ”

Han Xuening: The direction of the other bank is to look north and south, their location is on the north side of the lake, and now they are walking northeast along the arc of the lake.

Because it was daytime, the field of vision was still relatively wide. As you can see, the island is huge, and the riverbank stretches so long that you can't see the bottom.

After the four of them walked along the river for more than ten minutes, Han Xuening saw that more than two hundred meters in the distance, there was a small path leading directly to the island.

So, she told the others that there was a junction ahead.

The four of them soon came to the junction, which led from east to west to the island.

The path more than a meter wide is overgrown with weeds, some of which are half a meter high, and it is clear that this road has not been walked on for a long time.

Koharu and Konatsu who were walking in front were a little hesitant, and Koharu asked, "Boss, do we really want to go in from here?" ”

Han Xuening said: "We have been walking for so long, this is the only way to see that we can enter the island, we must enter from here." ”

Natsu said, "I always feel a little eerie. ”

The jade girl smiled and said to Xiao Chun and Xiao Xia, "Don't be afraid, even if there is no one on this island, there are no ghosts in this world. What we have to worry about is whether there are poisonous snakes or anything like that, so when you go in, you must be careful not to be hurt by these poisonous snakes. ”

The jade girl is right, the desert island does pay attention to these poisonous insects.

For the safety of Xiaochun and Xiaoxia, Han Xuening said that she walked in the front, let the two of them follow behind her, and the jade girl walked at the back.

The four of them, Han Xuening, took the lead and began to walk into this deserted path.

On both sides of the trail, there are trees and weeds, and there are undulating hills in the distance, and if it weren't for this deserted path, everyone would think that this is a deserted island.

A few people walked slowly for half an hour, and sure enough, it was all trees, weeds, barren mountains, and nothing else.

Strangely, not a single animal was found on the island, nor did the birds cry, as if it were an island of death.

Although Han Xuening had profound martial arts in her body, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Xiao Chun and Xiao Xia, who were following behind Han Xuening, had a sense of fear in their hearts, coupled with the dense woods around them, the four of them all felt a seeping coolness, which made people even more worried.

"It's a long road, let's move on." Han Xuening said to the people behind her.

Just now, they walked all the way for half an hour, just like this, all the way to the west, there was not even a fork in the road, there were only two turns in the middle.

After the four of them walked for about ten minutes, Koharu saw the distance and shouted, "Look, smoke rises here, could it be a village?" ”

Everyone looked in the direction that Koharu pointed, and indeed in the valley, there was a puff of cooking smoke slowly rising, wafting the sky.

The jade girl said, "It may be a small village over there, and someone is cooking." ”

"Let's go over and have a look, and if there's any, we'll be able to ask about the situation on this little island." Han Xuening's eyesight was much better than the other three, and she had already seen clearly that these cigarettes were indeed smoke from burning firewood and other crops, which meant that there were people there.

She also faintly saw a few old houses scattered there, apparently a small village.

However, the village is at the back of the hill to the south, and there is no direct road to the place where they are located, so they have to go around the hill in front of them from behind to reach the village.

The four of them quickened their pace, and hurried all the way forward, and soon reached the foot of the mountain, and then began to walk around the road at the foot of the mountain.

After walking for more than ten minutes, the road ahead was suddenly blocked by several stones falling from the mountain, and the cracks of the stones were already overgrown with weeds, which had obviously fallen for a long time.

"Everyone, be careful, let's walk slowly around the rocks." Han Xuening told Xiaochun and Xiaoxia in the back to be careful. The rocks had blocked the way, so I had to go around slowly, and where I couldn't, I climbed onto the gravel.

Han Xuening took the lead and began to detour behind the pile of broken stones, and after walking more than ten meters, there was nothing to bypass in front of her, and she could only climb up the broken stones, followed by Xiao Chun and Xiao Xia.

Be careful when walking on gravel blocks, some of which are very loose and will fall if you are not careful.

The four of them carefully walked on the uneven three or four meters tall gravel blocks, during which Xiao Xia stepped on the air, and almost fell down, and was grabbed by the jade girl behind him, so it was okay.

It took more than ten minutes for the four of them to get past the rubble area.

The four of them continued to walk around the mountain road, and after walking for more than twenty minutes, they finally saw a dilapidated village at the foot of the mountain in the distance.

Some of the houses in the village have collapsed, and the collapsed places are untended and overgrown with weeds.

Everyone walked down the mountain road, and after walking a few hundred meters, they should have reached the intersection of the small village and the village.

Soon, the face of the entire small village was displayed in front of everyone's eyes, and Koharu said in surprise: "Boss, just now we saw the village cooking, burning cooking smoke. Now, there's no smoke at all, what's going on? ”

Xiao Xia, who was behind Xiao Chun, was already creepy, "Could it be that we have entered the ghost village?" ”

Even though it was broad daylight, there was a layer of mist over and around the village, enveloping the whole village in this layer of fog, giving it an eerie feeling.

Han Xuening said to the two: "What ghosts are there in this world, let's go into the village to see if there is another reason." ”

Although Xiao Chun and Xiao Xia were afraid, they could only follow behind Han Xuening and walk towards the entrance of the village together.

After walking seven or eight hundred meters down the hillside, the four of them finally arrived at the entrance of the village.

A large stone tablet was erected at the entrance of the village, and the two big characters on the stone tablet were particularly obvious.

'Lonely Village! ’

The jade girl who walked at the back also felt that something was wrong, and said: "The name of this village is so strange, why is it called a lonely village?" ”

Koharu and Konatsu are even more worried, and the stone monument in the lonely village is also full of weeds. At first glance, this village has not been inhabited for a long time.

However, just now, they clearly saw the smoke burning in the village, indicating that someone was cooking in the village.

Did you really encounter a ghost village?

Actually, Han Xuening also felt that something was not quite right in her heart, there must be a reason for this.

This village is obviously an uninhabited village that has been abandoned for a long time, and it is indeed strange that the smoke has just been lit.

"Let's take a look at the village!" Han Xuening said to everyone.
