Volume 2 Crime and Contradiction Chapter 5 Strange Things in the Village

Heilinxiang is not far from Puzhai, but because no one has passed for a long time, the weeds are overgrown, which makes the speed of everyone move forward very slowly, and the weeds that are waist-high cover the land, and also cover the shallow ditches and deep pits, and the group can only carefully walk while exploring the road.

All the way is a deep forest, and there is almost no trace of people, which makes everyone in the archaeological team suspicious, if the missing team passes by in this place, there should not be even a trace of man-made traces, "Here, come quickly." "After walking for a long time, someone finally found a shallow path.

"Cutting the surrounding branches and leaves, there are obvious traces of trampling on the ground underneath, and there are traces of chopping around the road, and the time is right. Zuo Danyang played with the blades of grass on the ground on one knee, and he looked up at Old Professor Fu and said, "It seems that they should have left it." Lu Fan also squatted down, brushed aside the leaves of the two side-tilted plants, and could see that some of the broken branches had regrown shoots, and judging from the growth situation, it roughly coincided with the time when the archaeological team disappeared.

"Yes, they've definitely been here. Fu Zhongbiao looked at the path from afar and nodded.

Next, everyone followed the trail and traveled a few kilometers in a hurry, from deserted to gradually widening their vision, and slowly they could see the hazy group of houses looming among the rolling mountains.

Since they can see it, it means that the distance is not far, everyone dragged their tired legs, and once again accelerated their pace, seeing that the house was gradually clear, but Zuo Danyang and Zhang Fufeng, who took the lead, slowed down.

Lu Fan saw the three words Hei Linxiang at the entrance of the village, and understood the reason why they were slowing down, "Be careful, Captain Zhang and I will take the lead, Wang Yuan, you and Xiao Mao will go to the back, everyone be careful." After some time of getting along, everyone in the armed team and Zuo Danyang also got acquainted with each other, and at this time they were divided into two teams and protected several people from the archaeological team in the middle.

"Xiao Fan, you follow Professor Fu, and if there is danger, take them to hide. Zuo Danyang also had contact with Lu Fan, and because he was a little older, he followed the title of Professor Fu and called him Xiaofan.

"No problem. Lu Fan followed the archaeological team, and he quietly hid the assigned electric shock rod under his sleeve.

A group of people entered the entrance of the village, it was still early at five o'clock, but as soon as they entered the village, they found that the front of the big family was closed, but the whole village seemed to be uninhabited, and even the chickens and dogs on the ground were not seen at all, like an empty city, Zuo Danyang saw this scene, he lifted a black and pasty subway shovel, and knocked on the door in front of a house.

Bangbangbang, several crisp sounds in a row, but no one answered, Zuo Danyang was about to leave, but found that another door in the house slowly opened, and everyone's eyes were projected over, only to see a gray-haired old man stepping out of the threshold, "Our township likes to go to bed early, the owner of the house is probably asleep now, if you need to rest, you can come to the old yard." ”

Seeing that it was an old man who was over half a hundred years old, Zuo Danyang's face let down his guard slightly, and a smile bloomed on his face when he heard the words, "Sleep so early, we have just prepared for activities there." ”

The sky outside was still bright, but the old man who suddenly appeared said that the villagers went to bed early, knowing that the situation was weird, but with Zuo Danyang's joke, the others didn't take other words, and the old man didn't seem to hear it, but continued, "Distinguished guests, please come with me." ”

Everyone followed the old man into a large courtyard, from the outside until he entered the door, Zuo Danyang secretly looked around, and saw that the situation had not changed much, so he followed the old man into the courtyard, saying that it was a courtyard, but the inside was extended in all directions, and there was a wall to cover the courtyard, but it looked like an ancestral hall in the old days.

The old man led everyone to a house, pointed to the courtyards that stood opposite each other and said, "You can stay here tonight, the bedding is a little longer, but there is often a freshening, please take some." ”

Maybe it's because the courtyard is deep and the light can't shine, even if the sky is bright, but here, I feel that the surroundings are dark and unpredictable, Lu Fan stood under the wall, and saw that there was a corridor in the courtyard, looking along the corridor, the depth inside was unknown, as if there was something, "There are families living in the courtyard, and it's not early now, I hope you don't talk about it at will." The old man seemed to notice Lu Fan's gaze, and he bowed slightly to everyone.

"Everyone, please put your belongings and prepare some dinner in the hall later. With that, the old man withdrew from the courtyard.

Although the wing room is large, but it can't accommodate everyone together, everyone had to be divided into two batches, in the adjacent two wings, the situation in the black countryside is a little abnormal, everyone dare not take off the things on the self-defense ground, and it is not good to wash alone, after simply placing the additional items, the armed team began to check the surrounding situation, and the archaeological team and Zuo Danyang gathered together to discuss the next countermeasures.

Seeing that everyone else was busy, Lu Fan walked out of the wing room, he stood in front of the corridor, looking at the courtyard and the place where he didn't know, his heart turned over a little thought, from the time he came to this village, Lu Fan felt that he was vaguely uncomfortable, this place seemed to be a huge mouth of the abyss, waiting to devour the people who accidentally entered.

Suppressing the discomfort in his heart, Lu Fan slowly stretched out his feet, he slowly walked into the corridor step by step, until his whole body melted into the darkness behind the corridor, and the surroundings were extremely dim, but Lu Fan's eyes were excellent, he walked slowly in the dark, and one by one, Lu Fan touched a closed wooden door.

With a sigh of relief, Lu Fan's palm slowly exerted his strength, the wooden door was leisurely pushed open, only half of the door was pushed to the wall by him, and Lu Fan's feet also stepped into the room.

The room was darker than I had imagined, but there were two rows of windows around it, and the light from the outside was much more visible on the floor than in front of the hallway.

Crunch, crunch! The strange sound was intermittent in the room, like the sound of gnawing on hard objects, there was no light, the porter was closed, what about this sound? Lu Fan tried his best to suppress the throbbing in his heart, he tried his best to keep his feet from making any sound, and paced into the room step by step.

There is also a space in the room, at the end is an octagonal paper window, the paper body is slightly broken, there is moonlight reflected in the room, covering a circle of light around the window sill, Lu Fan is deep in darkness, so everything in front of the window sill can be seen really, a back figure is sitting on the ground, she is half-attached to the body, it seems to be holding something in her arms, is shaking, and just heard a strange sound, it is from this person's arms.

Lu Fan paused, the person in front of the windowsill had long hair that was slightly unkempt, at this time, she slowly leaned to the left, her body seemed to turn half to the side, Lu Fan could almost see the wrinkles like thick lines from the missing half of her face, her neck was amazingly thin, as if only bones remained.

Lu Fan subconsciously looked at the baby cloth in his hand, most of which was in the shadows, but he could see the arms of the two children merging together, holding a black thing and gnawing, crunch! crunch, at this time, the woman suddenly turned her head, Lu Fan's scalp was numb instantly, and a pair of red branded light dots were scattered in the unkempt place, staring straight at Lu Fan.
