Chapter 0079: Wang Fa, Can You Manage It?
The closer you get to the town, the more exaggerated the sights become.
Not only the livestock raised at home, but also on the avenues, paths, and ridges, more and more animals are constantly pouring out of the corners.
The rats, which are almost not present in the daytime, are also scurrying around the fields, as if they have been greatly frightened, and they have scurried out one after another.
Hiss!
Snakes of different colors, out of nowhere, swam swiftly in serpentine shapes on the road, raising their heads, and the snake hyacinth swallowed and hissed in warning, as if to warn other animals not to get in their way.
Frogs and toads, which usually regard snakes as natural enemies, also come out of the fields in large areas, and the frogs jump one after another, which is extremely spectacular.
Hulala......
A black wind swept through the air, but a flock of black birds seemed to be startled from the trees in the distance, and swept by, their wings flapping desperately, as if they were also under some mortal threat, full of panic.
Those who fly in the sky, those who walk on the ground, and those who swim in the water.
It's exactly the same reaction, the same direction.
It's as if fleeing some indescribable fear.
"Xiao Jiang, is this going to be an earthquake?"
Looking at this strange scene in front of him, Lao Han's first thought was to think of the earthquake.
It is said that it is usually a precursor to an earthquake, and the animal's reaction is very exaggerated. Because animals have super sentient abilities and are better than humans.
When an animal exhibits all sorts of strange behaviors, it is likely to indicate that an earthquake is coming.
Is it an earthquake?
Jiang Yue expressed his doubts about this speculation.
If it was a month ago, the world was functioning normally, and this situation occurred, it was completely reasonable to associate it with an earthquake.
Now?
Jiang Yue didn't think this was the panic that an earthquake could bring.
The presence of so many domestic livestock means that they are not far from the populated area.
Sure enough, after turning a corner, there were already houses on both sides of the road. The further you go inside, the denser the two rows of houses become.
In the distance, the two of them heard what seemed to be someone shouting in the farmhouse in the distance.
When I looked closer, it was an old farmer wearing a pointed hat, holding a bull rope, and screaming at a large buffalo.
With the other hand, he dragged a bamboo tip and kept beckoning to the buffalo, beating and scolding.
Judging by his posture, he was going to lead the cow back to the barn, but the cow was so stubborn that he refused to go in no matter how much he pulled it.
"If you don't go in, you will be reckless!"
It wasn't until Jiang Yue and Lao Han got close that the old farmer stopped, looking at the two of them with some wariness in his eyes.
"Uncle, what's the matter with this cow?"
"What's going on? I used to work steadfastly, but these days not only do I not work, but I always want to arch outward. I think it's just not cleaned up. β
"Uncle, I think something is wrong with this place. You see on this road, the frogs and mice are running on the road, is there something going to happen?"
"What can it be? It's like this all these days. Some people say that this is going to be an earthquake, and after so many days, there is no earthquake. Light scares people. β
Jiang Yue and Lao Han immediately looked at each other.
And an old man with such a good mentality?
"Uncle, if there is really an earthquake, aren't you afraid?" Jiang Yue couldn't help but ask.
"Afraid of the ball! I am seventy-nine years old, old man, and my children are all married outside, and I want to die or live, so I am this old bone. β
Sure enough, it's a Buddhist uncle.
Old Han handed over a cigarette: "It's better for you to be old." β
"I don't understand you young people. When it comes to planting crops, no one dares to say that we can do it better than me. β
"A good attitude is to praise you for living brightly and clearly!"
The old man lit his cigarette and hissed beautifully.
"Housheng, I don't think you look like a local, right?"
"Yes, we're here to visit relatives in town. β
These days, the people in the town are eager to go out, how can there be relatives in the town?"
"What do you mean, uncle? What's wrong in town?"
"There was a murder in the town, one a day at first, and then several disappeared a day. Who can stand this, as long as there is a place to go, they can go. β
The old farmer suddenly looked Lao Han up and down: "You, a descendant, look like a person from the government." Was it sent by the authorities to investigate the case?"
You canβt judge a book by its cover.
This old man seems to have been nesting in the countryside and planting crops all his life, and this vision is quite poisonous.
Without waiting for Lao Han to speak, the old farmer's face suddenly became solemn, and he lowered his voice and said, "Smoke a cigarette from you, old man, I will give you a word." β
You say. β
"If you don't want to die, hurry up, the sooner the better. β
The old man's tone was serious, and he didn't look like he was joking at all.
"Uncle, why do you say that?"
"Why not, you think in your own hearts. In short, it's this sentence, don't want to die, hurry up. Yunxi Town, now it is the Yama Palace, whoever goes in will die. β
"Such an evil sect, there is no royal law yet?"
The muscles on the old peasant's face trembled, as if he remembered something terrible, and evoked some terrifying memories, and his eyes flowed with fear that would hardly be seen at this age.
"Wang Fa...... Hehe, Wang Fa...... Can the king manage the people, can he control the ghosts?" muttered the old peasant.
"Ghost, old man, you said Yunxi Town is haunted?"
The old farmer's face suddenly changed, and he shook his head violently: "I didn't say anything, I didn't say that it was haunted." You guys go, go quickly......"
While talking, he waved the bamboo tips and kept swinging at the two of them, obviously trying to pick up customers.
Lao Han still wanted to step forward to stabilize the other party's emotions, but Jiang Yue tugged at his sleeve.
"Forget it, ask someone to ask. β
Jiang Yue knows too much about the character of this kind of old man in the countryside, and said that the cow has a strong temper, and this old man is obviously more tempered than the cow.
Walking further, every household is basically hung by the iron general on the door, and there is no figure.
Behind him, the old farmer waved the bamboo shoots angrily, constantly hitting the back of the ox, and scolded vigorously: "Call you disobedient, let you disobey." β
I don't know if he is training cattle or pointing at Sang and scolding Huai.
Not to mention the town, just talking about this small Zhuangzi, located on the outskirts of the town, there are not many farmers, there are less than 20 households, and more than half of the houses have padlocks.
If there is no padlock, it is basically an elderly person staying at home. Most of these are the kind of extremely stubborn old people who have to guard their own family business all their lives.
Lao Han was obviously a little surprised by this: "Xiao Jiang, listening to the tone of that old man, he obviously knows the danger, why do these old people refuse to leave?"
This is probably the difference in perception between urban and rural areas.
Although Jiang Yue is a native of Xingcheng, his roots are still in Panshiling, and he has a certain understanding of the countryside.
In the countryside, this is not surprising at all.
Every year, if there is a flood disaster or mudslide disaster, the villagers will be advised to evacuate in advance. The young, the young, basically leave as soon as they are persuaded.
Some elderly people are surprisingly stubborn and refuse to move their nests. In their words, death must also be in their own nest.
Of course, these things are obviously a bit unfamiliar to Lao Han, who grew up in a small town.
Jiang Yue didn't intend to explain, but walked to a house with a half-hidden door.
Unbeknownst to them, when they approached, the door that had been ajar was slammed shut.
This kind of old double door in the countryside, even if the porcelain is closed, there are still some gaps in the middle.
Through the gap, an old woman with gray hair and almost no teeth seemed to make a gesture to them, signaling them to leave quickly.
This old woman looks to be a little older than the old man before, I am afraid that she is more than eighty years old. Looking at her figure, her waist has been bent out of the angle, looking old, and the wind blows down.
But through the crack in the door, Jiang Yue still saw that there was a thick fear hidden in the old woman's cloudy eyes, as if she didn't close the door, a huge disaster would come.
And even so, the old woman kindly signaled to them to leave quickly!
The whole process, no language, no communication.
Jiang Yue clearly grasped the old woman's kindness.
They......
What are you afraid of?
The old man just now lost his words and said that the king is in charge of people, but not ghosts. Is it because of a moment of anger, unscrupulous words, describing the bad guys as ghosts, or is Yunxi Town really haunted?
Living to the age of the old man, it is said that ordinary homicides will never make him so fussed. After all, at this age, for these things, it will definitely be lighter than that of young people.
So the series of reactions after his sentence are obviously covering up something, and they are making up for his previous slip of the tongue!
Uncanny......
This has not yet reached Yunxi Town, and the situation has become so weird.
In the villages on the outskirts of Yunxi Town, the population has fled to the point of not two. So in a densely populated area like Yunxi Town, a town with two or three thousand people, to say the least, will it all flee into an empty town?
If so, what about the replicators?
Will it also be transferred?
The so-called mobile phone positioning, after all, is only the positioning of mobile phones. Who says that the replicator must be so stupid that he must hold on to his original phone?
With the means of the replicators, with their wisdom, it is entirely possible to get other mobile phones!
Before the town arrived, the strangeness was depressing and uncomfortable.
The more this happened, the more curious Jiang Yue became about everything that happened in the town.
