Chapter 120: The Grotesqueness of the Deserted Village (13)
It wasn't until it was confirmed that Dr. Cui had gone away that Luo Qiu looked at Qin Su with a somewhat strange expression: "What's the matter?" ”
"What's going on?" Qin Su was also a little confused by Luo Qiu's question, and asked incomprehensibly.
"What else can it be, this whole village is a deserted village! And how did we get here, and what about the people? You'll have to tell me about that! ”
Luo Qiu lifted the bamboo curtain of the window next to the bed, and frowned at the somewhat desolate small village in front of him.
"That's a long story." Qin Su scratched his head, but continued to speak.
It was almost about half an hour to say to Luo Qiu, and then he said everything that happened to Luo Qiu in a coma for the past two days.
"In other words, apart from you and me, there are three children of yours, only one girl is still alive, and the rest are dead?"
Hearing this, Qin Su immediately nodded very heavily.
Luo Qiu sighed: "Then the reason why we came to this deserted village is because this medicine boy of Dr. Cui went out to collect medicine and found us." By the way, have you noticed anything in the past two days, such as what is strange about this village? ”
"Weird?" Qin Su frowned even more: "If it's weird, I think this place itself is very weird, this place is completely isolated from the world, and there are almost no extra means of communication in the village." Because of their rugged terrain and the fact that there are no other villages in a radius of 100 miles, it is indeed not cost-effective to assume a signal tower for the sake of their small village. ”
It is true that it is really rare to have no signal in these years, but it is not nothing, at least Luo Qiu is an eye-opener today.
After chatting a few words again, Qin Su hurriedly left, and then brought a bowl of white rice, one or two pieces of bacon and a cabbage leaf, and placed them in front of Luo Qiu.
"There aren't many good things to eat in this barren mountain village itself, they rarely eat meat here on weekdays, and this bit of meat is left over from a whole rabbit that I bought from the hunters in the village yesterday, but it really cost me two hundred." Qin Su said painfully.
Luo Qiu didn't care if he was good or not at this time, he was about to faint from hunger, almost as long as he just had white rice and water, Luo Qiu ate several bowls. Because Qin Su said that it was rabbit meat, Luo Qiu also deliberately paid attention to the taste when he ate it, although the appearance was similar to ordinary bacon, but this meat was definitely not pork, and it also tasted like a different fragrance.
After eating and drinking, Luo Qiu's own blood stopped, and after replenishing the blood before, his physical strength gradually recovered after eating, and he got off the bed.
"Let's go out for a walk, we've been sleeping for two days and we're going to die."
Standing up, Luo Qiu relaxed his muscles and bones very comfortably, his whole body stretched out, and he suddenly felt that the bones in his whole body were crackling. Sounds very infiltrating.
Qin Su didn't do the opposite, but nodded.
"That's right." And at this moment, Luo Qiu seemed to remember something: "Did the people in this village ask us who we are before?" ”
Although he didn't know what Luo Qiu was asking for, Qin Su thought that Luo Qiu didn't seem to have made a wrong decision all the way, so he quickly replied, "I asked this... But I was carrying a few of you on my back at the time, and I didn't have the heart to answer their questions, just to say that we had a natural disaster on the highway above. ”
Luo Qiu lowered his head and pondered when he heard this, and only after a long time did he say coldly: "When someone asks, you will tell the truth." How many people died also tell the truth, but be sure to add another one. We reported a travel agency, so once the travel agency found that a tour group was missing, it would definitely send a search and rescue team to rescue us, so you said that we would stay for a few nights. ”
Qin Su had already experienced the most thrilling moment of his life in the past few days, of course, he recognized every decision of Luo Qiu, after all, it seemed to him that every decision was right.
The two nodded to each other and walked out.
Walking out of the room, it was a small house, Luo Qiu glanced back and strode towards the slightly muddy road outside. Glancing up at the bustling village, Luo Qiu couldn't help but clench his fists.
This village is not just as simple as it seems.
During the time when several people were standing on the side of the village road, they were watching. No less than 30 villagers suddenly walked out from both sides of the road in Luo Qiu's field of vision in the village, these villagers were men and women, old and young, and most of them were smiling and following behind the two old men who were about sixty years old.
"Who is this man?"
Luo Qiu turned sideways and asked quietly towards Qin Su.
"It seems to be the village chief of this village, but I only occasionally saw him show his face a few times a few days ago, but I didn't expect to come over with such a large group of people today." Qin Su looked at the group of people who kept coming over, and he was also a little puzzled.
Hearing Qin Su say this, Luo Qiu also understood that the person at the head of this deserted village should be the village chief, or a respected person in the village with a head and a face.
Let's look at the posture in front of you. It's as if the lame doctor had told me before.
Luo Qiu and Qin Su both stood still and did not move, while the villagers quickly came to them, and then. Then one of the two old men in the lead said with a smile:
"I'm the head of this village, and I heard that you are a foreigner who encountered a landslide on the mountain road near here?"
The village chief's words only surprised Qin Su, but Luo Qiu looked like this, after all, Luo Qiu had already experienced the strangeness of this storybook. The village chief was clearly guided by some hidden force, as if he knew in advance that they had encountered a landslide. Obviously, Qin Su didn't tell these people before, of course, it was not ruled out that they heard the earth-shattering sound that day.
At this time, Luo Qiu reacted quickly and hurriedly smiled, and took a big step forward. And he said to the chief of the village,
"Yes, this village is really coincidental, and we were able to survive thanks to the people in your village."
Hearing Luo Qiu's sycophancy, the village chief became even more excited, and he grabbed Luo Qiu's hand. Shake it vigorously:
"You outsiders are polite to come to our Huangshi Village as guests, stay a few more days, and make this place your home!"
Luo Qiu was numb by the village chief's hand, and it took a lot of effort to get out of it, and the village chief also reacted at this time, and hurriedly apologized and said:
"You see, I forgot to introduce, these are a few hunters from our village, and this is the medicine boy who was also discovered by him, Dr. Cui, Brother Qiao."
The man who was standing aside and didn't look very strong, when he heard the introduction of the village chief, he immediately changed from his previous gloom to a smile, and he also took the initiative to shake Luo Qiu's hand:
"Our village is backward, there is no electricity until now, and the promised roads in the town have not been repaired for a long time. You guys are also very particular."
Luo Qiu didn't understand the village chief's words, but seeing him looking at him embarrassedly, Luo Qiu suddenly realized that this old man had something to say.
"I heard that you are a foreigner, and you were killed here, and I heard that there will be reporters coming here at this time, you see this..."
Hearing this, Luo Qiu suddenly came to his senses, it seemed that this village chief really didn't look like a pedantic fool in those ordinary villages, and immediately laughed: "Village, what are you talking about now, since we are killed here, and so many people have died at one time, then there will definitely be many reporters and even police ambulance personnel coming over at that time." When the time comes, your village will not be exposed. When the time comes, will this matter of agreeing to build a road for your village still run? ”
"Yes, yes, yes! At that time, our village will be developed. The medicine boy Qiao Ge'er said a little excitedly on the side.
The village chief immediately glared at this Qiao Ge'er, but the words he said were full of deep meaning, and he smiled at Luo Qiu and them again and again. As for Luo Qiu, he has been pondering in his heart, this group of people obviously seems to have not written the words "Our village has a big secret" on their faces. But why are they so desperate to expose their own village? If there is something unsightly in their village, if it is exposed, isn't this just shooting themselves in the foot?
