Tian Bochuan had reached his limit, and he wanted to persuade Yan Yu to go back several times, but Yan Yu had no intention of stopping.

In fact, Yan Yu could also feel his irritability, because he himself was also tired and wanted to give up.

Although it is just a simple fruit forest, it is extremely difficult because the terrain has been transformed, but it is this kind of difficulty that can go out, and if you want to be comfortable, you can only return to the same place in the end.

Sure enough, Yan Yu seemed to have touched the method, and finally broke through the weakness in his heart with the idea of sailing against the current and facing difficulties!

Suddenly there was a clear vision in front of them, and they finally walked out of the woodland!

When he saw the smoke rising in front of him, and heard the occasional insects and birds, Tian Bochuan jumped up excitedly!

"We succeeded! Hahaha! It worked! Hu Ju really didn't see the wrong person! ”

Yan Yu was also excited in his heart, but in comparison, Tian Bochuan was even more excited, because in his opinion, Yan Yu was not an outsider, and he Tian Bochuan was a real ordinary man.

So in terms of a sense of achievement, he is bound to be stronger than Yan Yu.

Yan Yu didn't show much, because he knew that this was just the beginning.

Maybe all kinds of affairs can be handed over to Tian Bochuan to do, but to accept the test, it must be done by himself.

Earlier, he thought that the Religious Affairs Bureau was the outside organization, but in fact it was not, this Dunhuang Mountain, like Longfu Mountain, did not seem to belong to the world.

So it's not a problem that Hu Yaozu can solve with a word, maybe they can let Yan Yu take the title of advisor, but it's just the advisor of the Religious Affairs Bureau outside, not Dunhuang Mountain.

If you want to be recognized by Dunhuang Mountain, then you can really take over the resources in Zhao Tongxiao's hands!

It's just the beginning, and it's just an entry, it's so difficult, and the difficulty of the assessment in the future can be imagined.

Since he walked out of the woodland, Yan Yu has also been washed, and he really doesn't dare to slack off, let alone be complacent because he has passed the entrance assessment, he must wind up the clockwork in order to be able to get the recognition of Dunhuang Mountain!

At this time, it was already evening, and the smoke was curling, and it was hard to imagine that this was a village in the arid northwest, more like a quiet land south of the Yangtze River.

Smelling the smell of firewood is the only way to pull yourself back into the world.

The village is not very big, after all, it is surrounded by two earth dragons, there are only twenty or thirty households, in the center is a big house with eaves corners, you can vaguely see a torii, I think it should be an ancestral hall or something like that.

The other houses are all wooden tile structures, but the shape does not have the toughness of the Great Northwest, but has more Taoist roundness and softness.

"Let's go, it's just a meal, maybe you can still stutter." Yan Yu said this to Tian Bochuan, although his mouth was relaxed, he never dared to relax in his heart.

In front of the village, there seems to be a field, and I don't know whether it is barley or corn, but at this time of year, only dry stubble remains, and occasionally traces of irrigation can be seen, and it is thought that the water source is not enough to soak the fields, so it is impossible to plough.

After passing through the fields, there are large and small vegetable fields, just like the clothes of a poor monk who walks the world, patched together, but not messy.

There are still some old radishes that have not been dug in the vegetable field, or old and refined meat vegetables, kaleons, garlic leeks and other things, although it is gloomy, but for Yan Yu, it is very eye-catching to see these greens.

"It seems that the little life here is good, where are we going?" Tian Bochuan was also so hungry that his belly was close to his back, and when he saw the smoke, the bottom of his tongue was full of relish, and his stomach was growling.

Yan Yu didn't dare to be rash, just said, "Let's take a look around first and ask." ”

Without waiting for a response, Yan Yu walked into the village.

The roads in the village are paved with small stones, rustling on them, and the front and back of the houses are exceptionally clean, and there is no dirt everywhere in the village with sewage flowing sideways, cow dung and chicken feces.

It is also strange to say that after walking down this circle, Yan Yu dared not relax even more.

Because every house here has its doors open, you can see that the people inside are busy before and after, some are brushing pots and cooking, some are chopping wood to boil water, and some are cleaning up dried vegetables, which is no different from ordinary villages.

But the village was quiet, not even a single rooster or dog could be heard, and these residents were arguing and quarrelling, not even whispering, and the whole village gave people an extremely strange silence!

The steaming sound of the stove is very real, but this sound is even more dead.

The residents' movements were sluggish, their expressions were numb, and they turned a blind eye to Yan Yu and Tian Bochuan, the two "uninvited guests", and no one came out to greet them, and occasionally someone turned their heads, like a blind and deaf person, even if their eyes were right, they were in a state of loss of focus.

Yan Yu even felt that they were a little like ...... Like the walking dead.

"Teacher Yan, I'm leaving, I've seen it, I think the conditions are almost the same, are we going to pick one at random? I think the one in front of me is very good, I can smell the aroma of bacon! ”

Tian Bochuan rubbed his hands, his eyes showing excitement.

Yan Yu shook his head: "Don't you think it's a little weird? ”

"Eccentric? Where is the weirdness? ”

Yan Yu pointed at him: "It shouldn't be very common in the countryside for you to wear this dress, right?" If you go to the countryside on weekdays and the villagers see it, what kind of scene is it? ”

Tian Bochuan raised his head slightly: "Although I am only a clerical worker, you must know that clerical jobs are popular in the countryside, and fellow villagers are very welcome......

Speaking of this, Tian Bochuan also stopped, as if realizing that something was wrong.

"Maybe they haven't been in contact with outsiders, mass work is my forte, I'll go up and ask, you wait."

Yan Yu always felt that something was wrong, and when he was distracted, Tian Bochuan had already stepped into the courtyard, knocked on the door, and then crossed the threshold and greeted the people inside.

"Hello fellow, are you cooking? I'm from the city to inspect life, I'm here to see if it's feasible? ”

The people in the room looked at Tian Bochuan with a dull gaze and uniform movements, like puppets, but no one responded to Tian Bochuan's words.

Tian Bochuan was also a little embarrassed, but he had already boasted about Haikou, and immediately walked to the front, rolled up his sleeves, and said to everyone: "I'm a good firemaker, I'll help!" ”

Yan Yu hurriedly felt a little numb in his scalp, and looked around, only to feel that the doors of every house were wide open, like a passage from another world, eerie and weird, making the soles of his feet cold.

He seemed to be able to feel countless pairs of eyes staring at him, but he couldn't sense exactly where the person was.

"It's not good......"

Yan Yu looked at Tian Bochuan and subconsciously took a step back.

At this time, Tian Bochuan became an "uninvited guest".

Although the doors of every house are open, it is absolutely forbidden to enter other people's houses without the invitation of the owner!

Uninvited, that's a big mistake!

Xu is Tian Bochuan felt something, he walked outside, and said to Yan Yu: "Teacher Yan, you can come in too, the rice is cooking in the pot, but it is fragrant, I look hungry......"

Yan Yu shook his head: "If they don't talk to you, don't you think it's strange?" ”

Tian Bochuan said humbly: "Maybe they are all disabled...... You know, we've visited some of these villages before......"

Tian Bochuan's answer was so lame that even he didn't believe it.

Yan Yu didn't think that if he was as smart as Tian Bochuan, he wouldn't notice the strangeness in it.

Yan Yu's silence made Tian Bochuan feel depressed, so he lowered his voice and said to Yan Yu: "Weird is weird, but they are all living people, the food in the pot is steaming, these are all true......"

"The people of Dunhuang Mountain want to test you and test you, that's your business, but it has nothing to do with me, they are all masters who are beyond the world, how can they care about me, an ordinary man?"

"Besides, Hu Ju asked me to assist you, of course I have to do this kind of pioneer thing, although I don't have the ability to go out of the woodland, but the masses work and probe people's hearts, but my strength, let me go in to test their details, it's good to help you, isn't it?"

Yan Yu knew that Tian Bochuan was not a stupid person, so he already had an idea in his heart.

But Rao is like this, that feeling of uneasiness always hangs over my heart, and I can't get rid of it.

"I'll wait outside."

Tian Bochuan knew Yan Yu's temperament, so he was not reluctant, and walked into the kitchen with a smile, and took the initiative to talk to him, although he did not respond, Tian Bochuan still smiled Yan Yan, as if the stubborn stone could also make him "influence".

After half an hour, the sky was completely dark, and there were no lights in the houses, only the light of the stoves, and the village was even darker because of the hills.

And suddenly there was a damp air in the air, and the mist gradually thickened, and the mist was filled with a scorched fire, and the breathing became unsmooth.

Yan Yu covered his mouth and nose with his sleeve, still did not take half a step into the courtyard, he adhered to the principle of never rushing into the courtyard without the invitation of the master.

Tian Bochuan came out with fragrant food, but he didn't go out of the courtyard, so he asked Yan Yu to send it back.

Yan Yu watched them eat, Tian Bochuan's eyes were also looking around, these people even had mechanical movements when eating, without any expression, as if they were enchanted!

Although I already know that Dunhuang Mountain is by no means an ordinary place, this scene is too weird.

Yan Yu didn't know what the hell they were up to, but it was by no means a good sign.

Tian Bochuan didn't bother to knock on the side, he even reached out in front of these people and shook it, snapped his fingers in their ears, and even poked their arms.

But there was still no response.

Tian Bochuan was also a little scared, so he left his job and walked out quickly.

"Teacher Yan, this is wrong......"

He looked around, the surrounding fog was heavy, gloomy and cold, the stove was crackling, the eyes of the people in the house were dull, he suddenly stood up, walked to the door, and beckoned to Tian Bochuan, as if calling him to go home for dinner.

But what makes people's scalps tingle is that their expressions are stiff and their movements are slow and mechanical, which really makes people's hairs stand on end!
