Chapter Seventy-Four: The Strange Village
Wen Qing looked at Song Xiulan with a smile, "They let us go so easily?" As the old man said, the villagers here are not so easy to do! ”
Song Xiulan approached Wen Qing and said, "Isn't this me?" I know them! The main reason why the teams that passed through the village and these villagers clashed with them was because of the language barrier, and they would have the wrong meaning for each other! So something unpleasant happened! ”
Wen Qing still looked at Song Xiulan with a smile, "They didn't tell you anything else?" For example, some information about Teal Town? ”
Song Xiulan thought for a while and said truthfully, "Yes, they said that the town had long been deserted, so I didn't want to go, and it wasn't safe there at night!" ”
Wen Qing put away her smile, "That's all?" ”
Song Xiulan continued, "And they didn't agree with me going to that town at the beginning, and they also said that many people want to go to that town every year, but the people who went in never came out again!" They have persuaded many people who are trying to enter Tealtown, but they always think they have malicious intentions towards them! Actually, they all mean well! It's just that the language is different, so I can't understand it! ”
"I told them there were actually a dozen of us behind us, and that we were here for that town, and that we had to go to that town anyway! At last they saw that I had made up their minds to go, so they said no more, except that if I had to go, they could send an experienced hunter to show us the way! ”
Wen Qing pointed to a winding path leading to the depths of the mountains at the innermost part of the village and asked, "What kind of road is that road?" Is it the road to Teal Town? ”
Song Xiulan turned around, muttered and asked a few villagers behind him, and turned around and said, "Yes!" ”
Wen Qing looked at the two of them with an inquiring gaze, "Since they promised to let us go and let an experienced hunter show us the way, then let's go and inform the old man to come over now!" ”
Song Xiulan looked excited, "Today happens to be their festival to celebrate the harvest, and they will hold a grand bonfire party in the village in the evening, and warmly invite us to participate!" We can rest in this town for the night and enter Teal again tomorrow! With experienced hunters leading the way, we'll do more with less! ”
Wen Qing nodded, "Just leave the matter of informing the old man to us, you go, you haven't seen these villagers for a long time, you must have a lot to say, go to them to chat!" ”
Song Xiulan nodded, turned around and went down the dirt slope!
After Song Xiulan left, 28 moved to Wen Qing!
"Miss Wen, this Song Gongzi said that today is the festival of the village to celebrate the harvest, and the skins and flesh of so many animals hanging on the shelf may be explained!"
Just now Wen Qing said that there were strange things in this village, but when he saw the corpses of so many animals hanging in the village, he was puzzled, according to their calculations, there were only about 20 people who could go hunting, and there were no less than 30 large animals hanging on the shelves in the open space!
The animals were still dripping with scarlet blood, and they had apparently just died!
Twenty-five hunters, more than thirty large animals of all kinds, how could they hit so many large animals almost at the same time?
If this is in normal times, it will definitely not be able to hit!
But if today is a festival to celebrate the harvest in the village, it may not be impossible!
However, Wen Qing still shook her head, her expression was very serious!
"I'm sure, this village is really weird!"
28 was surprised, "Miss Wen has found something strange again?" ”
Wen Qing turned her head and said, "You are faster, you go and notify the old man that they are coming first, and wait for them to come!" ”
28 was a little worried, "You and Song Gongzi are here, it's going to be fine!" ”
Wen Qing pointed to Song Xiulan, who was mingling with these villagers below, and said with a smile, "Do you look at him as if he has something?" Rest assured, we'll be fine! ”
Wen Qing's gaze fell on the winding path leading to Cyan Town, and said quietly, "At least, we will be fine now!" ”
28After leaving, Wen Qing sat on the dirt slope, Song Xiulan was forcibly dragged into the wooden corner tower by the group of enthusiastic villagers, Wen Qing didn't follow, she didn't know what to do, so she buried her head in her knees and slowly fell asleep!
When she woke up, Zhao Moushi and the others had already arrived, or rather, they woke her up!
28 walked up to Wen Qing and said, "I have already told Zhao Moushi all your inferences!" ”
Wen Qing nodded!
After Zhao Moushi's team arrived, Song Xiulan also came out with the big village master, and those villagers did not have the same hostility as they did when they first saw Wen Qing and 28!
Maybe it was Song Xiulan who told them the reason, at this time, they came over to help them lead the horses, take things and materials, and unload the goods!
It does look very welcoming!
Zhao Moushi also came to Wen Qing's side and looked at the stockade below.
"Xiao Wen, your guess has been told to me just now, but in this regard, it is judged that there are strange things in the village, and some of them are barely reasonable, what else do you see?"
Wen Qing pointed to the winding path that disappeared into the depths of the dense forest and asked, "Old man, have you seen that road?" We're going to have to go that way to Tealtown! ”
Zhao Moushi nodded, "See, is there anything special about that road?" ”
Wen Qing said, "Old man, take a closer look at that road, what are the characteristics?" ”
Zhao Moushi looked at it for a moment and shook his head, "I really don't see anything special about that road!" It's like the mountain village path we usually walk! What could be special? ”
Wen Qing said, "That's right! It's like the mountain village road we usually walk! That's what makes it special! ”
Rao is known as the first think tank of Zhao Moushi as the king of Yuzhang, and he can't guess what Wen Qing wants to say at this time!
But then, he looked at Wen Qing, and his face was still gratified!
"Xiao Wen! Don't torture the old man anymore, if you find something, just tell the old man, old man, I'm old, and my brain is useless! ”
Wen Qing didn't go around in circles, "Old man, look at the winding path, and then look at the crazy weeds growing on the side of the road, it should have been a weedy area, and forced a road out, but this road doesn't work, it leads to the green town!" Usually not many people come here, even if that path was stepped on by the team you sent to Teal Town last year, but you can refer to the extent to which the road we haven't traveled in a year when we came was covered with weeds! ”
"This road, like a mountain village road, is walked every day! Therefore, this road was stepped out by the people in this village! They've been to Teal Town, and most likely, they do a lot! ”
"This is completely inconsistent with what they said about going to Teal Town and never coming back, and they even admitted that the people who went in never came out, so why could they? They lied! ”
"And I don't believe that they hunted so many large animals of unknown origin, combined with the temple not far from their village, which enshrined the giant dog that slaughtered the town back then, this village may not be as simple as we seem!"
Zhao Moushi nodded, expressing his agreement, but only agreed, and then, he didn't say anything!
Wen Qing wondered, "Then, are we still camping in this village tonight?" Hugh Lan said that today is their festival to celebrate the big harvest, and there will be a bonfire dinner in the evening! Invite us to join us! ”
Zhao Moushi saw that the villagers below had become one with their people, although they did not understand each other's language, they still tried to communicate, but in the end, it was nothing more than a chicken and a duck talking, no one could understand what was said, and they could only understand it by gestures, so a small thing had to take several times longer to communicate clearly! So it looks like it's very lively under the dirt slope!
Zhao Moushi smiled knowingly, "How can we refuse the warm invitation of the villagers? We've camped in the village tonight, and we haven't eaten fresh meat for a long time! Everyone must be crying! Such a great opportunity not to be missed! ”
Wen Qing still had a faint worry, "But..."
Zhao Moushi interrupted Wen Qing and said, "Don't worry, nothing will happen tonight!" They are also going to take us to Teal Town! If we have any accidents tonight, how will they take us tomorrow? ”
Wen Qing felt that there was something in Zhao Moushi's words, but if he said this, it could also be understood in this way, but there was also another possibility, what if they just wanted them to settle down?
But Zhao Moushi obviously didn't want to say more, and then turned around and left! Doesn't seem to worry at all about what will happen to staying in the stockade at night!
Wen Qing saw the picture of Song Xiulan living peacefully with these villagers, and she even wondered if she was really thinking too much!
Since Zhao Moushi didn't take this matter to heart, then she had nothing to say!
She came down the dirt slope and was about to go down with them, but when she went down, she suddenly saw the two brothers Mo You and Mo Hai lazily nesting on the other side of the dirt slope, there were some weeds growing on the dirt slope, they were half lying on the weeds, because they were facing away from Wen Qing, Wen Qing saw them, they didn't see Wen Qing.
Just as Wen Qing was about to go down, she suddenly heard the conversation between the two brothers! So Wen Qing stopped!
Mo You is the thinnest one, and Mo Hai is the fat one!
The first to speak was the thin Mo You!
Wen Qing could only hear him, "Brother! I smell a lot of blood in this place! Do you smell it? ”
The fat Mo Hai didn't have a good breath, "You think I'm like you!" I don't have a dog nose! ”
Mo You was a little angry, "How many times have I told you, I'm not a dog's nose!" I'm a dog, so are you! ”
Mo Hai pushed him, "Even if I am a dog, I am also the dog's brother!" ”
Mo You was pushed, but there was no reaction, he sighed, "The smell of blood is too strong, don't you smell it?" ”
Mo Hai laughed, "Are you blind?" There are so many dead things down there, and there is still blood dripping, can the smell of blood be heavy? ”
Mo You said, "Alas, I'm not talking about this, I mean, those villagers have a heavy smell of blood!" ”
Mo Hai glared at him, "Then these dead things are not all killed by those villagers, they naturally smell of blood!" If you want me to say, don't be suspicious, do you want to eat barbecue at night? Don't eat it, don't come to disgust me! I haven't eaten meat in days! Don't leave me with no appetite for the whole night! ”
Mo You muttered, "That's not right! If they have the blood of those dead things, why do I smell the blood of people on them? ”
But then he shook his head again, and the two talked about the next topic!
Wen Qing remained silent, and then walked down the dirt slope on the other side!
