Seeing this, Zhou Fan didn't say anything more, turned around and took Qing'er to follow, and the group hurried for half an hour, and finally saw the village that Zhou Fan said.

At this time, everyone stood outside the village, looking at the brightly lit village, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, because they found that the village was actually a big village, with a population of tens of thousands, and the whole village was built on the mountain.

In the middle of the village is a natural river more than half a meter long, which should be said to be a small stream, and the source of the stream is at the top of the mountain at one end.

There is a steady stream of water flowing down there, which is for the people of this village to drink, but the stream begins to fork when it reaches the middle part of the village, Zhou Fan guesses that those forked rivers should be later because the village has more people.

The people of the village have transformed the artificial river channel by themselves, and the forked river channel has more than a dozen tributaries, almost to all corners of the entire village.

"Are they doing some kind of ritual? Those people won't find out about us, will they? Everyone stared at the row of houses in front of them a little dumbfounded, and even Zhou Fan couldn't believe that there was such a village in such a remote place.

And what surprised everyone even more was that although the village was brightly lit, all the tools used for lighting were torches, and in the center of the village, that is, at the foot of the mountain, there were thousands of people surrounding at this time, and they didn't know what activities were going on.

Seeing the scene in front of him, Tianyou couldn't help but become more cautious, he didn't worry about his own safety, but he was worried about the safety of Twilight, he knew that some ethnic minorities used different languages, and they were still very resistant to outsiders.

He also knew that there were strange villages in some places that killed people if they didn't agree with each other, and now that those people seemed to be engaged in some kind of ritual, he was even more worried.

He was afraid that those who found out about them would treat them as enemies. What's worse is that if they unfortunately don't even speak the same language, then they will only have a dead end.

"Hehe" Zhou Fan couldn't help but smile when he saw Tianyou being so cautious and said, "Don't worry too much, you are concerned about it, why are you at least fifty or sixty meters away from them now."

There's no reason why they can find out about us, and I think it's because someone in their village died, or it happened to be a ritual, and now they're at a critical juncture, and they won't find out about us, you see. ”

After saying that, Zhou Fan cautiously led everyone to the other side, and came to a relatively high terrain, and at this time everyone found that they were getting closer and closer to those who were engaged in activities.

However, Zhou Fan found the right location, on both sides of the rows of houses built against the mountain, there are some hillsides that are not high or low, and those houses built on the mountainside can still see the situation of those small slopes, but it is not much use because the distance is too far.

And the group of people who gathered at the bottom of the mountain to carry out sacrifices happened to be at the foot of the mountain, and the height of Xiaopo Mountain was much higher than the place where a group of people engaged in sacrifice activities.

It's just that the position of Zhou Fan and the others is much closer than before, but the advantage is that now they can see clearly what the people in the square below are doing.

Zhou Fan lay on the dirt slope and found that the people in the square seemed to be performing some kind of ritual on a coffin, and a blood-red coffin was placed in the middle of the huge square.

The coffin was surrounded by the crowd, and the people outside were jumping and jumping, as if they were bowing to the coffin, "What, what trouble does it take to bury a person?" ”

Zimeng was already a little impatient at this time, they stayed in the Netherworld Mansion for two days, and finally escaped, now it is rare to find a village, he still wants to have a good meal, but he can't meet his wishes, and he has to be cautious everywhere, and even worried about being discovered, he can't stand it.

"Who, who's where?" Zimeng's complaint was suppressed for a while, and was heard by one of the people who were sacrificing below, and immediately the person turned around and shouted at this Zhou Fan and a few people, and after that person shouted, thousands of people in the square looked at the location of Zhou Fan and a few people.

"What should I do, do you want to run, or go down and fight with them." Zimeng didn't know that those people were so good at hearing, but when he saw this form, he didn't have the heart to think about it, so he turned around and gave everyone's opinion.

Tianyou didn't pay attention at this time, poked his head slightly, looked down, and saw that both eyes were staring at the small dirt slope where they were, so he couldn't help but be angry, "What the hell are you, I'm embarrassed to say, if it weren't for you, we would be discovered, and we would fight you down." ”

Zhou Fan glanced at Zimeng, who looked aggrieved, and shook his head at Tianyou again: "Okay, stop arguing, it's impossible to run now, everyone has already surrounded them, don't dodge, go down to them to negotiate conditions."

Just now I heard that their language is also Mandarin, although there are some Guizhou regional accents, but there is no problem with communication, since they can communicate, why are they not afraid, this era is nothing more than money, besides, if they want to kill us, they will do it a long time ago, and they will not wait until now. ”

Just when Zhou Fan and the others were discussing what to do, the people below spoke, "Friends above, if you don't come down again, we will invite you to come down." As soon as the voice fell, Zhou Fan felt that someone was crawling up from the bottom of the dirt slope.

"Coming from afar, is this your hospitality?" Hearing the sound, Zhou Fan also knew that they could no longer hide, so he realized that everyone was going down the dirt slope, and as soon as a few people came down from the dirt slope, they were surrounded by a group of people with sickles.

However, Zhou Fan had long known that there would be such a situation, and he had ordered Tianyou to protect Qing'er and Dusk Xue before, while he and Feng Long, Zimeng and Lu Tianyuan were surrounded on all sides, and if there was a real conflict, they would have room to fight back.

"Hmph" In the group of people who sacrificed just now, a middle-aged man suddenly walked out, dressed in blue-gray cloth clothes, and holding a bowl of bright red blood in his hand, and said with a cold face: "Foreigners are never welcome in our village, and they are secretly hiding aside on the day of our sacrifice, what are your intentions." ”

After the middle-aged man finished speaking, the group of people with scythes around Zhou Fan had some eyes glowing, Zhou Fan knew that those people had been trained, as long as the middle-aged man gave an order, those people would rush up and cut them to pieces.

"We didn't mean to offend, but we went into the mountains to collect medicine, went to the wrong place and got lost, so we came to your village by mistake, and we wanted to ask for a place to live and leave for the night, but when we saw that you were holding a ceremony, we didn't bother you.

But it did not occur to me that I was going to hide and wait for you to come out after the ceremony, but since you have found us, I will tell you the truth, if you can hope that your village will be convenient and give us a place to stay overnight.

But if it's not convenient, we'll leave right away and won't bother you anymore. After saying that, Zhou Fan secretly pulled out the ancient sword inserted behind him, took two steps back, came to Tianyou and said secretly: "I don't know what the idea of these people is."

But I don't seem to be good, you pay attention to my reaction for a while, and if something is wrong, you will shoot them in the air to warn them, and once the fight really starts, you will run with the two of them first, and we will leave behind the pad. ”

"No, I'm going to stay with you..."

"No, don't be coquettish here, if you really fight, you will run with Tianyou, do you hear?"

"But..."

"Hear me, don't want anything, but, you're safe, we have a chance to get out." Zhou Fan saw that Qing'er was still a little willful, and immediately became angry, turned his head and scolded in a low voice, so frightened that Qing'er didn't dare to say anything more before she said half of her words.

"I don't care if you get lost in collecting medicine, or if you have evil intentions, but eavesdropping during our sacrifice is already a big sin, and I advise you to be caught with your hands tied.

I won't suffer for a while, but I won't hurt you, and when our sacrifice is over, I will naturally interrogate you clearly, and if it's really just passing, we won't make it difficult for you.

But if you want to find out the secrets of our people, it is only a dead end. The middle-aged man didn't seem to be reasonable at all, Zhou Fan had already explained the reason for the matter, and he still insisted on going his own way, and this attitude immediately angered Zimeng.
