Speaking of punishment, Fan Shenxi didn't really do anything "excessive", how could Qiu Xiaobei's eight-month-old body withstand his toss, Rao is so, Qiu Xiaobei, who took a bath, was wiped clean by Fan Shenxi and carried back to the bed, she herself was drowsy and delirious.

But when the shadow guard came in the middle of the night, she woke up.

Xiao Hachi's expression was solemn: "I checked the place where we came in, and I couldn't find a mechanism that could reopen the stone door, if it was just hidden secretly, it would be fine, but if only the mechanism that came in didn't go out, we might really be trapped here." ”

When Eleven heard this, he suddenly said, "Could it be that what the village chief Hu Lao said means this?" As long as you come in, you can't get out, whether you want to or not, you will become a villager of the nameless village? ”

"The strange soldier who disappeared back then, it won't be trapped here and can't get out, right?" Qiu Xiaobei then guessed, "Then among the villagers we see today, will there be the guards in the strange army back then?" ”

"I can't say it," Xiao Shi said, "Why don't you find a few villagers tomorrow?" ”

"Just ask," Fan Shenxi made the final decision, "The villagers here have already decided that we can't get out, anyway, they all want to stay here as villagers, and even the gold-inlaid cave can take us in to see, and there is no objection to the temptation, tomorrow, you can ask whatever you have." ”

Qiu Xiaobei raised his hand: "Including how to get out of here?" ”

Fan Shenxi took her hand and put it down: "You can try." ”

The next day, everyone was once again warmly welcomed by the villagers.

The fragrant rice porridge, with pancakes, eggs, and side dishes, is very appetizing, and the two aunts who take care of them are two aunts in their thirties and forties, who call out to their aunts sweetly, and ask while nibbling on the cakes: "Auntie, your vegetables here are really fresh, are they grown by yourself?" ”

"Of course, we're all self-sufficient, we have everything."

"But even if it's a vegetable, silk for clothes, these need to have 'seeds', right? Where are you all from? ”

The aunt cleaned up for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It's all left by the ancestors." ”

"Didn't you go out?"

"What are you going out for? What's more, "Auntie put down her labor and stood up to look at them," she couldn't get out. ”

"What did you say?" Eleven, who had already known about this, seemed to have just knew, and suddenly jumped up from his chair unacceptably, "Can't get out?" How can we not get out, we can come in, we can get out! ”

The others felt that Eleven's acting was a bit exaggerated, but they still cooperated with a more or less shocked expression.

The aunt shook her head: "We've lived here for so long, and we haven't seen anyone come in and go out." ”

"How is it possible, haven't you thought about going out?"

"What if you want to, what if you don't want to? Whoever first came in wanted to go out, and after a long time, they would die. Another aunt walked over with burning eyes.

As Fan Shenxi said, the aunts are very honest and have no intention of concealing it.

"I don't believe it." Eleven shouted excitedly, "You must have lied to me, who would want to stay here all the time, what's the difference between this and going to jail?" ”

"What's so bad about staying here?" The aunt said with a smile, "There is no quarrel with the world here, there are not so many fights and killings outside, you can take people's lives for a little money, here is peaceful, happy, there is no shortage of food, clothing, housing and transportation, you say, what's wrong?" ”

Eleven wanted to say something, but was held down by Xiao Shi, Xiao Shi shook his head at him, and then said to his aunt: "Whether we can go out is another matter, the reason why we came here is to find relatives, twenty-three years ago, did a team of soldiers come here?" ”

The aunt recalled: "No one has come to the nameless village for many years, if you want to say what you said twenty-three years ago...... Hey, I don't remember the exact year, it should be about 20 years or so, there was a group of people here, but I don't know if it's what you're looking for. ”

"And where are they?"

"We can't remember this clearly, it's been more than 20 years, and we don't distinguish between you and me, it's really hard to say who they are."

"Then tell us what you have a memory, even if it's just one or two."

The two aunts glanced at each other, then nodded in agreement, and told them how many families there were, to determine who in that family was more than twenty years ago.

After the two aunts left, Eleven, who was very excited because he couldn't go out, sat down calmly, Fan Shenxi looked at the names and current addresses of the five people who came from more than 20 years ago written by the aunt, and asked Eleven and Xiaoshi to look it up, and Xiaoba stayed by his and Qiu Xiaobei's side in case of accidents.

"Don't you think it's right?" Qiu Xiaobei saw that Fan Shenxi's face was gloomy, and he turned his fingers in his hand even more, and knew that he was thinking about something.

Fan Shenxi said "um", raised his hand and put it on the table, and nodded his fingers: "How did those corpses in the ice lake die?" ”

It couldn't be so coincidental that when so many people were standing there, the boulder under the platform came loose and killed them?

The odds of such a coincidence are too small.

He is more inclined to believe that someone has designed everything, but who is this person, at least he must be very familiar with the environment in the snow valley of Wuxue Mountain to arrange it, this person, is he really not in and out of the nameless village now?

There is another point, that is, he came here, it was guided by his mother, and his mother would never really want him to explore the truth about the disappearance of the strange soldier back then, right?

Finally, these people have a strange attitude towards them, too respectful, not like they are villagers who are about to live together.

"yes," Qiu Xiaobei tilted his head and thought, "I also feel that something is wrong, it seems to be ...... It seems too simple. ”

It didn't take any difficulty to come in, except for the embarrassment of not being able to go out, the people of the Nameless Village were warm and thoughtful to them, and they didn't hide anything, and now they even have clues about the strange soldiers back then.

It was so smooth that I thought it was a very difficult copy, but I didn't know where to hit it when I came up with a fist softly.

"I have a hunch," Fan Shenxi was cold but resolute, "and we can't find anyone about the strange soldiers." ”

Sure enough, as he guessed, after Xiao Shi and Eleven came back, their faces were not very good-looking.

"The two aunts said that we had all visited, but the result was either that they had passed away, or they were not from the strange team at all, but they just happened to come in around that time, and there was another one who said that he was injured back then, lost his memory, and forgot everything." Eleven said angrily, "Is there such a coincidence, that team of twenty or thirty people, the two aunts only remember five people, these five people are dead, the wrong ones remember, the amnesia of amnesia, the villagers here are all united to tease us, right?" ”

Xiao Shi also said: "It stands to reason that since they are so sure that we can't get out, there is really no need to hide it from us in this kind of thing, unless we ......."

Unless, there is another way out.

Unless, what was more important than the gold-inlaid cave of that wonder army back then, I can't tell them now.

Or maybe the strange army hasn't actually been here?

"Your Highness, what should we do next? We can't stay here for long. "The whole army returns to Beijing, the speed is naturally not as fast as a few people, but no matter how slow the speed is, half a month to a month is about the same, on the way they arranged some "accidents", will extend the time to Beijing, but it is full of calculations, it is the limit to be able to delay for two months, if they stay here for too long, can not rush back in time when the army arrives in Beijing, the deployment in Kyoto is not only useless, His Royal Highness's efforts for many years may also be ruined.

Of course, it doesn't matter if they can rush back if they are trapped here permanently, but His Highness will never allow this to happen.

"Don't be in a hurry to go out beforehand," Fan Shenxi's voice was cold, and his face was calm, "Let's check first, what kind of existence is this nameless village, this palace doesn't believe it, it's just a nameless village isolated from the world." ”

In front of him, there is a question waiting to be solved, and when they crack it, they will naturally be able to get the key to clear the customs and leave here, so it is better to find out what kind of place they have arrived in order to find out everywhere.

For the next two days, during the day, the three shadow guards, like everyone who had just arrived and didn't want to be trapped here forever, searched everywhere for a way out, and when they couldn't find it, they would rush into the homes of some villagers and ask where the exit was.

Qiu Xiaobei was also walking around the village, no, she was looking for someone to ask, she said emotionally that she didn't want her child to be trapped in this world as soon as something happened, there were parents and relatives waiting at home, she should worry more about her family if she didn't go back, she begged everyone to tell her how to get out, and after getting the same answer repeatedly, she hid her face and cried.

Two days later, in the evening, everyone gathered in the main house and drew the places they had walked to form a map of the unnamed village.

"There are a few suspicious places." Fan Shenxi pointed out several places on the map, the house of the village chief Hu Lao, the altar in the village, a house that had been empty for many years, and a gold-inlaid cave that they had entered once.

Eleven asked, "Is there a problem with the gold inlay hole?" "The gold-encrusted cave, as the name suggests, there is no better description than this, except for the gemstones, is there something wrong with this hole?

"It's too easy," Qiu Xiaobei stroked his stomach one by one, "Before, we thought that the village chief was sure that we couldn't get out, and he already regarded us as villagers, so he took us to the place where the villagers of the nameless village would go, but if we think about it from another angle, if there is no premise of the above speculation, then what will be the situation that the village chief will easily take us to such a precious place?" If we can really go out and tell the people outside about the location of this place, how many people will snatch it because of the existence of the gold inlaid hole? ”

"So, it's likely that the village chief wanted us to think that there was no problem with the gold-inlaid cave, so he deliberately took us there first?"

Fan Shenxi suddenly said: "These are just speculations, if you want to know what the truth is, you have to conduct a field investigation, we will go in again tomorrow, now, you go back first." ”

Although the three shadow guards were a little confused, they still asked to retreat.

"What's wrong?" As soon as the others left, Fan Shenxi immediately grabbed Qiu Xiaobei and held the back of her hand holding her stomach with one hand, "Uncomfortable? ”

Qiu Xiaobei's heart was warm, because she could know her situation with a few obscure movements, and when he discussed major matters, he also focused at least half of his attention on her.

"I'm fine, it's just that this naughty guy in my stomach suddenly moved badly." It's just a punch in her stomach, and it's very energetic all at once.

When Fan Shenxi heard this, he actually got up and squatted in front of her, and his hands were very light on both sides of her waist, looking particularly cautious.

Qiu Xiaobei smiled, lowered his head, and looked at him with tenderness in his eyes: "Do you want to listen to it, maybe he will call you daddy." ”

Are this woman afraid to take him for a fool? Fan Shenxi gently slapped her ass back, and in her exaggerated "ouch" sound, she still couldn't help but stick her face sideways against Qiu Xiaobei's big belly.

In fact, he didn't hear any sound, but he just didn't want to leave, and faintly seemed to hear someone calling him daddy, however, suddenly he was kicked in the face.

Fan Shenxi raised his head and touched his hand, clearly feeling that Qiu Xiaobei's stomach was bulging, but he quickly pushed it back.

So, was he really kicked by his son (daughter)?

Qiu Xiaobei giggled, and pretended to coax Fan Shenxi: "It's okay, it's okay, there's no shame in being kicked by your own son, I know here, I won't say it." ”

Fan Shenxi slapped her forehead with a hand, and when she began to scream again, a precious kiss fell on her stomach.

……

"The child is about to be born, and I want to create a gift for him." Fan Shenxi sighed softly, "Can you go out and say otherwise, since there are such good gems here, naturally I don't want to miss it." ”

The village chief looked at the "head of the family" among the five people, he seemed calm and calm, with a hint of anxiety and helplessness, the three "brothers" next to him were either depressed or expressionless or irritable, and the only woman was also gray-faced, constantly touching her stomach to relieve her emotions, all of which were manifestations in a desperate situation, but they were stronger than normal people, and their willpower was a little firmer.

They don't look like ordinary people in the first place, and if they are as hysterical as ordinary people, the play will be over.

Hu Lao nodded: "I'll take you in?" ”

"Don't bother you, let's just go in by ourselves, we can't do anything in the future life, let you take it." Or are we not allowed to go where people in the village can come and go at will? ”

"Look at you, you're still too sensitive, but it's normal for you to think so, and it's natural to wait until everyone is familiar. Go if you want, take whatever you want, and tell the old man if you still need anything. ”

"Thank you, village chief."

The "scenery" inside the gold-inlaid cave is still shocking, but none of the five people who came in focused on those glowing things, but always studied whether there were any other hidden passages or stone chambers besides the road that could be seen by the eyes.

But they searched back and forth twice, but they didn't find anything special, and even Xiaoba, who was good at finding mechanisms, didn't receive any goods.

Is it really okay here?

"Wait," Qiu Xiaobei called out to everyone as he passed the underground river that was strewn with gold, "We've been paying attention to the stone wall, could there be a problem in this river?" ”

She is not uncommon in martial arts, she can go to another place through rivers and lakes.

This underground river is not very long, it is cut off by a stone wall in front and back, and the river water flows from under the stone wall.

As soon as Xiao Ba heard Qiu Xiaobei mention it, he immediately set his eyes on the river, and then asked Fan Shenxi for instructions, and after getting Fan Shenxi's permission, he took off his shirt and went into the river.

At first, you could still see the traces of Xiao Ba's swimming, but soon, the river surface returned to calm, everyone waited for a long time, Qiu Xiaobei stood on his feet, and they all found a place to sit down for a while, only to hear the sound of the water breaking again, Xiao Ba got out, did not climb up, and nodded towards Fan Shenxi in the water.

"Xiaobei, you wait here, Xiaoshi and Eleven stay." After Fan Shenxi assigned the personnel, he personally unbuttoned his shirt, planning to follow Xiaoba into the water to have a look, leaving Xiaoshi and Eleven behind, in order to protect Qiu Xiaobei.

Qiu Xiaobei wanted to follow, but he also knew that his body couldn't tolerate his own nonsense, so he could only wait with peace of mind, and watched Fan Shenxi go into the water and sink to the bottom with Xiaoba.

This time, the two of them didn't come back for a long time than Xiaoba left, it was estimated that they had found something, Qiu Xiaobei couldn't sit still in a hurry, stood up, and pointed to Eleven to pick up a few pieces of gold in good condition and come back.

"Since I said that I came in to find gems so that I could make them into gifts for my children, how could I go out empty-handed for a while." Using this gold to make a small gold lock for children to wear is exactly the custom of her hometown.

Eleven obediently went to pick up gold, and Xiao Shi was also sent to dig some gems next door, but he didn't dare to leave too far, so that he could see his wife when he turned back at any time.

"Pick this one, this one is bigger." Qiu Xiaobei, who couldn't bend over, could only command the eleventh operation, and occasionally deliberately shouted out loudly to prevent someone from coming in and eavesdropping, and her eyes, looking at the water from time to time, revealed her worry about Fan Shenxi.

"Ma'am." Xiao Shi next door suddenly came over, "Someone has come in." ”

"......" Qiu Xiaobei was stunned, what she was worried about really happened.

She continued to shout at Eleven, "That one looks brighter, pick up that one." He looked in the direction of the exit.

Originally, she was still thinking about whether to change her position, but she was afraid that the rush would make people see the problem, so it was better to stay here boldly, just like the village chief took them into the gold-inlaid cave.

Soon, two village women came in, and when they saw Qiu Xiaobei, they were a little surprised at first, and then came over in surprise: "Mrs. Fan, you are really here." ”

Qiu Xiaobei smiled and nodded: "Yes, come here to find some gifts for my children, why are you here?" ”

"The child was naughty and broke a few bowls at home, so he wanted to come in and find some green jade, and the bowl made from that thing was very beautiful."

The corners of Qiu Xiaobei's mouth twitched, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is also very rich, but she, the wife of the Prince, still has a feeling of being compared to these village women.

"Eh, by the way, what about your father-in-law, I heard the village chief say that you came in together, why didn't you see others?" The woman looked left and right, and also looked at the river behind Qiu Xiaobei.

Qiu Xiaobei was angry when he mentioned him: "You don't know, my husband is really ...... sometimes" She was so angry that she couldn't speak, "I like this, he just insisted that it was ugly, and he was not satisfied, so I drove him to another place and asked him to find someone he thought looked good to show me." ”

The woman smiled and said: "Men are like this, sometimes don't look at their strong appearance, in fact, they just want us to coax him, follow him, between husband and wife, how can there be real wins and losses, let each other more." ”

Qiu Xiaobei actually felt that she was quite reasonable, and chatted with them for a few more words, all about her husband's usual small problems at home, from beginning to end, she couldn't see that Qiu Xiaobei was in any hurry and uneasy, she even chatted quite energetically, or the other party first said that she was in a hurry to find Qingyu, and then went home to cook for her husband and children, and they said goodbye to Qiu Xiaobei and left.

As soon as they left, Qiu Xiaobei's smile couldn't hold back, she walked to the river, and looked at the river worriedly, God knows how worried she was when she chatted with the two village women just now, how worried Fan Shenxi and Xiaoba would suddenly come out of the water, but now, she was worried about why she hadn't come out after so long.

As if to respond to her mood, the water "swished" a few times, and Fan Shenxi and Xiaoba came out one after another.

"Heavy!"

Qiu Xiaobei shouted happily, if she hadn't taken another step forward and was about to step into the water, she would probably pounce on it with a round ball.

finally waited for Fan Shenxi to come up, and she immediately rubbed it over: "How is it?" Why did you come up so slowly, is there anything wrong? She picked up the underwear he took off and covered him, wiped the water on his body by the way, and found that his skin was very cold when she touched it, "Why is it so cold?" ”

She had touched the river, it was the temperature of the normal river water, so that his skin would not be so cold, look at him and Hachi's face and skin, they were a little pale, and when she looked closer, she found that there were ice cubes on their skin, or because they swam from the river, so that these fine particles of ice began to melt.

"I'll talk about it when I get back." Fan Shen said calmly, took off the wet underwear, put on the coat directly, and dried the pants with internal force, although it was still wet, but the surface could not be seen, Xiaoba did the same as him, and then the underwear used to wipe the water was stuffed into the package with gold, and after tidying up his appearance a little, he went out together.

As soon as I went out, I met the two village women who came from another road, and they were surprised to see Fan Shenxi: "When did Fan Xianggong come over?" ”

"Just now," Fan Shenxi took out a crystal clear gem, "I found a good one, my family is good at everything, but he has a bad eye, and he always fights with me, so I have to look for it myself." ”

Qiu Xiaobei pretended to snort angrily, Fan Shenxi and the two women arched their hands, and took Qiu Xiaobei past the woman and walked towards the entrance of the gold-inlaid cave.

Until he was sure that there were no outsiders, Eleven asked in amazement: "Your Highness, no, master, how do you know what Madame said to them?" ”

His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has confessed, and now outside, the address of His Royal Highness has been accidentally heard, and there is no trouble, but the title of the master has more identities to refer to.
