Chapter 424: Don't Stay Overnight
Miao Village is still the same as usual today, but I feel a lot more deserted.
After Wang Song came out, Ada took us to the intersection in front of Miao Village, Xu Wenqiang didn't know where to push a board car, just waiting there.
He still had a cigarette in his mouth, and it seemed that he had just arrived, and the cigarette had just been lit.
"Can you walk on the ground? I thought you were weak right now. ”
Xu Wenqiang glanced at me, not knowing if he was mocking me or really worried about me.
I just waved my hand calmly, and Xu Wenqiang put down the partition on the board car and motioned for me to sit on.
Wang Song had already gone up one step ahead, I thought that the mountain road was not easy to walk, if two people sat on it, the weight must not be light, and I was afraid that there would be some trouble crossing the mountain road at that time, so I walked forward side by side with Xu Wenqiang.
"Is Miao Village fun?"
Xu Wenqiang didn't seem to have anything to say, I just smiled faintly: "That's it." ”
Suddenly he whistled, and a big black dog came out of the woods and followed us with his tail wagging.
"You can't walk this path without a dog's nose."
I thought of the monster from before, and I don't know why, and my heart became sad.
Perhaps because Xu Wenqiang is not good at expressing himself, the topic just started and ended abruptly.
I don't know if the one-eyed dragon will appear in broad daylight now, but after all, it's a precautionary hand, so I've always been vigilant.
And the big black dog was very fast, and then he always walked ahead of us, and from time to time he would wait for us around the corner.
This is still the way I came, and I am a little relieved.
Wang Song, who was sitting on the board car, fell asleep in the bumps, the sun was not hot, so it was warm on his body, if I was also sitting on it, I am afraid that I would have fallen asleep by now.
Originally, I thought that I would never speak again along the way, but Xu Wenqiang may have been bored, and suddenly spoke again.
"I heard that you participated in the sacrifice of Miao Village?"
I nodded, there is nothing to hide about this, even if I don't say it, with his understanding of Miao Village, I'm afraid he can still know some news.
"Sacrifice is not a good thing, after you go back, it is best to ask the Taoist priest to do the Fa and remove the yin qi on your body."
I nodded, and then asked, "Don't you usually associate with people in Miao Village?" ”
Xu Wenqiang didn't know why I asked this question, but he still hesitated and replied: "There are everyone in Miao Village, and they have the ability, and it is too dangerous to deal with them." ”
And there has to be one more, and there are many rules.
But I didn't say much, and instead asked, "Then how did you meet Ada before?" ”
Ada's status in Miao Village seems to be very high, even higher than that of Old Man Lu.
I didn't have this concept before, but I could see from the last sacrifice that his attitude towards the woman, and the attitude of everyone towards him at the banquet, was very unusual, and in this case, I only felt that the two of them could know each other, which seemed a little peculiar.
Because in my opinion, Xu Wenqiang is just an ordinary person, at most his physical strength or skills are better than ordinary people.
When Xu Wenqiang heard my words, he just said lightly: "When there was an accident in the village before, when I went to Miao Village to ask for help, I was looking for Ada. So after coming and going, it became familiar. ”
Hearing this key information, I suddenly became interested and asked, "Do accidents often happen in your village?" ”
But as soon as I opened my mouth, I realized that there was something wrong with the question, and it was particularly impolite.
But the words that came out were like water spilled out, and I could only smile awkwardly at him.
It's just curiosity, and if he doesn't say it, it doesn't matter.
But maybe this road is not short, and it didn't come so quickly for a while, so he explained: "Actually, it's okay recently, those things happened many years ago. ”
"What do you have to do with those weirdos?"
I thought of what I saw that day, but Xu Wenqiang shook his head.
"This is a matter of Miao Village, and it has nothing to do with our village, it is because of something else."
I resisted my curiosity and didn't go any further.
But Xu Wenqiang said directly: "Miao Village is not only witchcraft, they will also have some burial ceremonies or sacrifices, as long as someone in our village dies, they will look for their Miao Village people, but not every family will follow the way of Miao Village." ”
Hearing this, I was a little puzzled, isn't it all a village? Is it true that everyone is buried differently?
As if sensing the doubts in my heart, Xu Wenqiang suddenly smiled and said: "I am an outsider, and I don't know much about their customs and habits, and it is precisely because of this that we have been ostracized, but I have long been used to it, and it doesn't hurt anyway." ”
That being said, I could still see a hint of sadness in his eyes.
It's like living in a place for a long time, but you have never been able to integrate into this circle, sometimes even if it is very lively, but it has nothing to do with you, this kind of experience, I am afraid it will affect people's mentality.
I comforted, "It's okay, isn't your family the best at hunting?" Even if they don't accept your family, it's still just as good. ”
Hearing this, Xu Wenqiang smiled shyly, picked up a cigarette and handed it to me.
Originally, I didn't want to smoke, but I thought that it would be more than half an hour before I arrived in the village, and the time would pass slowly just by chatting like this.
So he stretched out his hand to take it, and Xu Wenqiang politely lit the lighter and handed it over.
I took a deep breath and asked again, "Why did you come to this village in the first place?" ”
It seems that this question can only be asked when the relationship is better, but after taking a puff of cigarette, I feel that the relationship between the two has become a lot closer.
Xu Wenqiang replied: "It's to avoid some things, but these are trivial family matters, it's too complicated to say, and even if outsiders know, it's difficult to understand." Anyway, after arriving in this village, we have been trying to blend in with them, going up to the mountains to hunt, and from time to time we will help some villagers, trying not to cause them trouble. ”
I nodded, and didn't seem to have any more questions to ask.
A cigarette is coming to an end, Xu Wenqiang smoked faster than me, and after extinguishing the cigarette butt, he suddenly said: "The people of Miao Village, no matter who it is, don't believe it easily, this is what I said when I sent you in, even now, if you come back in the future, you must remember what I said." ”
This was so inexplicable that I didn't react at once.
"Why? But Ada saved my friend. ”
I defended it a little.
Unexpectedly, Xu Wenqiang laughed again.
"No matter what they do, they will have their own purpose, and this purpose, it's hard to say, even if you say it now, you don't believe it, in short, just remember my words, if you can, I hope you never come back here."
Before, I thought that Xu Wenqiang had changed, he didn't like to talk very much, and he always had a gloomy face, and I thought that the sun was more cheerful, but after listening to his words, I found that he still hadn't changed at all.
"I see."
I looked at Wang Song who was pulling behind the car, he was still sleeping, sleeping soundly.
There was only the last section of the mountain road left to reach the village, Xu Wenqiang suddenly turned his head to look at me, and said, "Don't spend the night in the village tonight, when you arrive, you will leave here immediately." ”
I thought there were no cars nearby, and it was almost noon, and it would be afternoon if I delayed a little longer, and even if I got back there, it would still be evening.
Originally, I had no plans to spend the night, but after hearing Xu Wenqiang's words, I asked in some surprise, "Is there anything special tonight?" ”
I feared a taboo, but he just shook his head.
"It's nothing, it's just good words, if you don't believe it, just don't say it."
I had no choice but to put a stomach full of doubts in my stomach.
However, the lake fairy grass has been obtained, and I don't have any nostalgia for this place, and I am planning to find a car to leave here after arriving in the village.
After entering the village, the villagers here still looked at me and Xu Wenqiang standing together, and they still looked at me with strange eyes, and Xu Wenqiang seemed to have long been used to it, so he just took our things off the cart and left alone.
