After Li Muyu got the news of Hu Ze, he began to become cautious, Ling Ran stayed in the forest, but the decision not to enter the village faintly revealed a dangerous signal to Li Muyu.

Li Muyu rummaged in his backpack, but in the end he only found a pack of cigarettes that seemed useless, Li Muyu took out four cigarettes from the cigarette case, took one of the cigarettes apart, and then scattered the cigarette crumbs near his backpack, Li Muyu scattered the cigarette crumbs very loosely, as if he couldn't see anything.

After that, Li Muyu left four different marks on each of the remaining four cigarettes on the handle, and put them on the table, after doing this, Li Muyu groaned for a while and then went out.

Shi Dashan didn't come back, Li Muyu walked out of the yard, looked at the sky, and saw that it was still early, Li Muyu took a deep breath and walked straight to the outside of the village, the location where Li Muyu went was the campsite of those people found by Shi Dashan and Hu Ze before, Li Muyu arrived at the place and observed here, but he didn't find anything special, Li Muyu looked around, and saw nothing, only an empty forest, Li Muyu sighed and took out a plastic bag from his pocket, At this time, Li Muyu took out the plastic bag, leaned over and dug out the pit with cigarette butts and charcoal, and put the cigarette butts and burned cigarette butts into the plastic bag, and then Li Muyu no longer buried the pit, but walked back to the village with the plastic bag.

After returning to the room, the sun was a little westward, but when the door was opened, Li Muyu found that Shi Dashan still hadn't come back, Li Muyu walked back to his room, looked at the cigarette butts and cigarette shavings he had placed, Li Muyu nodded, and after that, Li Muyu took out the cigarette butts in the plastic bag, and put them on the table after marking them, as for the plastic bag, Li Muyu sprinkled some smoke shavings on the surface of the charcoal, and Li Muyu stuffed them into the backpack again.

After doing all this, Li Muyu walked out of the courtyard gate and stood at the courtyard gate waiting for the stone mountain to come.

Because the time was getting late, Li Muyu didn't wait long to see Shi Dashan's figure, and Shi Dashan was obviously stunned when he saw Li Muyu standing at the gate of the courtyard.

Li Muyu stopped Shi Dashan and said, "It's a little boring to stay in the room, it's not too late, can you take me around the village?" ”

Shi Dashan was a little surprised: "Let's eat first, right?" ”

"Seeing that the sun has begun to turn west, I'm afraid that it will be late after eating, I don't want to meet anything more at night, I've been here for a day, and I haven't walked around the village, you take me for a walk?" As he spoke, Li Muyu handed over a cigarette.

Shi Dashan took the cigarette and nodded, so he took Li Muyu and started in the village, turning around.

"The owner of this house is surnamed Li, a good person, but the year before last, the child left here and never came back, and now there are two old people in the house, fortunately, they can still move, and they can barely live with a few acres of land."

"This is the well in the village to get water, don't get too close, we have a drought here, this well can be deep, if it falls down it is estimated that it will be dead, when I was a child, I heard that there are children from other families who fell into this well, I don't know if they fell to death or drowned, so the children in the village will not be close to this well, but now, there seem to be no children in the village.

This is the only poplar tree in the village, I don't know why, the people in the village did not remove this tree, and it has been placed here for an unknown number of years......

Along the way, Shi Dashan introduced it like this, telling Li Muyu about the things he passed by, and Li Muyu paid special attention to the empty houses that Shi Dashan talked about, but from it, Li Muyu didn't hear anything. As for this village, Li Muyu has actually bypassed a few times a long time ago, not to mention that he is familiar with the road, but he is also quite familiar with the village road in his heart. Walking all the way, Li Muyu occasionally asked, and Shi Dashan answered Li Muyu one by one.

"By the way, the people in the village don't believe in God? I don't think there is anything to worship the gods. Li Muyu inadvertently raised this question.

Shi Dashan was stunned for a moment, and replied with a somewhat unpleasant face: "Believe in God?" In the past, there were people who believed, and they believed in some gods and bodhisattvas, but you also knew the curse of our village, and after that, no one believed in those useless ones, what is the use of believing them? It doesn't work at all! Shi Dashan said, the expression of resentment on his face became more and more intense.

Li Muyu smiled, what Shi Dashan said is also common sense, everyone needs a belief in order to solve some things that cannot be solved objectively, but if this kind of thing does not develop in a good way, and there is a situation where people are powerless, then this belief will naturally not be believed in anymore, and it is the same for this village.

Li Muyu asked this question because he was curious to see the shrine without a god statue, but after hearing Shi Dashan's answer, this question was naturally brought over.

Shi Dashan accompanied Li Muyu around the village a few times, and the village was not big, so it didn't take long to go around the village. Seeing that the sky was gradually getting dark, Shi Dashan also showed his intention to go back early, and Li Muyu naturally followed Shi Dashan back to the courtyard without disobedience.

Back in the courtyard, Shi Dashan went to prepare the dinner for the evening, while Li Muyu went straight back to his room, Li Muyu glanced at the things in the room, and it didn't seem to have changed, but when Li Muyu walked to the table and turned over those cigarette butts, his face changed slightly. At the beginning, Li Muyu pressed a mark with his fingernail on the bottom of each cigarette butt, and the positions of these marks were different. Although these cigarette butts are still placed on this table, it seems that there is no change, but Li Muyu found that the order in which these cigarette butts are placed has changed. In other words, someone picked up these cigarette butts and looked at them and carefully placed them, but the order naturally changed due to negligence.

Li Muyu walked to his backpack, and saw that the cigarette shavings under the backpack had also changed, obviously becoming more washy, Li Muyu took out the plastic bag from the backpack, and the plastic bag was still the same charcoal, and even the placement of the charcoal had not changed, but the smoke shavings on the charcoal had disappeared. In other words, the charcoal has been touched by people, and the smoke chips on it naturally fall to the bottom of the plastic bag.

These changes that Li Muyu saw all indicate the fact that in this village, Li Muyu was monitored, and Hu Ze's reminder earlier made Li Muyu have such a mind, so Li Muyu made these preparations, and now it seems that there is a problem in this village.
