Chapter 4 Burial Village
Since that day, with the passage of time, the old man in gray who was called the clan elder by the girl Ah Cai came once, and then muttered something inexplicable in a low voice, he never appeared again, and naturally, Ji Wuchen never saw him again. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
And since then, no one has been here in this hut again, and no villager has been seen coming, so only he and the girl Ah Cai who will come here from time to time are left, as if his existence is only known to the girl Ah Cai and the mysterious clan elder.
And under the careful care of the girl Ah Cai, Ji Wuchen's body also began to recover gradually.
After enduring it for a long time, Ji Wuchen finally couldn't help but seize the opportunity to ask Ah Cai, who came to take care of him from time to time, about some information.
After all, all his previous memories were just staying in that strange ancient city in the depths of the Sahara, walking down the steps with Lin Qingshan.
In the blink of an eye, when he woke up again, he found that he was in a completely unfamiliar environment, and it seemed that it should be Huaxia, which was thousands of miles away from the Sahara, how did this make him not surprised, confused and puzzled, which is why his eyes were a little stunned when he first woke up, and it was really not all pretended, at least he did feel a little cloudy at that time, and his mind was blank.
But fortunately, he was only surprised at first, and quickly reacted, after all, what he experienced there was not something that could be explained by common sense, and it was naturally not strange for this.
It's just that everything feels a little strange to him, and even he vaguely doubts whether he is dreaming, he has never been to the Sahara at all, but accidentally fell off the cliff.
It's just that when his hand touched his left chest, everything was in vain.
There is no why, only a firm belief that he is extremely sure that everything is not a dream, but a reality.
But when he thought of this, Ji Wuchen couldn't help but smile bitterly.
And in a series of conversations with the girl Ah Cai, although Ah Cai's Mandarin is not very fluent, in the end, Ji Wuchen still heard it clearly.
Naturally, I also learned what kind of situation he is in now, what kind of place he is in, and what kind of existence the so-called "clan elder" is.
What Ah Cai said before that this is her home is actually right and right, because in a sense, this is indeed her home, but it can't really be her home.
It turned out that this was a place called the "burial village", and as for why it had such a strange and weird name, the girl Ah Cai said that she didn't know, only that the name had existed since she could remember.
It is not a big village, and there are not many people living here, all of whom have lived here for generations.
There is no one else but them, they have lived in this village for generations, no one will leave, no one will think of leaving, they are just stubborn and stubborn guardians to support this place.
They live here, and no one comes here, as if it were a place of seclusion.
If you insist that this is the paradise written by Tao Yuanming, maybe it's not impossible.
It's just that although the people of the burial village have lived here for generations, the strange thing is that the number of people in this village has never changed, it will always be one hundred and twenty-eight people, never more or less, once a new person appears, someone will immediately disappear or die, it has never changed, naturally there are people who want to escape from here, but this place is surrounded by mountains on all sides, there is no sunlight all year round, and the only way to go out is "that place" in the girl's mouth.
Ah Cai said that she didn't know that place either, it was all said by the clan elders, and the clan elders said that it was a cursed place, no one could pass through there, and no one could come from there, and after paying countless human lives, over time, no one in the entire burial village would try it easily.
Until recently, the patriarch suddenly found her, and then motioned for her to follow him, and staggered towards the forbidden place in the back mountain, his expression was extremely serious and majestic along the way, and even Ah Cai was dyed with a trace of nervousness.
And it was outside the so-called forbidden place that they found Ji Wuchen, who was lying on the ground with serious injuries and bleeding from his chest and neck.
At that time, the patriarch with a solemn expression did not have any expression of surprise, as if he had expected it a long time ago.
Even at that time, he didn't say a word and directly helped Ji Wuchen who was lying on the ground up, although there was a little haze between his eyebrows, but he didn't stop at all and let Ah Cai carry Ji Wuchen down the mountain on his back.
It's just that despite this, the clan elder did not directly bring Ji Wuchen back to the village, but directly placed Ji Wuchen in a house on the edge of the burial village, and bandaged him simply, until now, perhaps this is why no villagers have come over.
And in this process, Ah Cai also said that the elders of the whole clan were clearly frowning, and seemed to be vaguely worried and uneasy.
From this series of words, it can be seen that all of this is clearly known only to the girl Ah Cai and the elder of the clan, or to be precise, only the elder of the clan knows everything from beginning to end, and even the first time to find Ji Wuchen was something he suddenly wanted to do alone.
When Ji Wuchen heard this, his brows frowned slightly, he didn't believe that the mysterious clan elder took Ah Cai to the forbidden place where people smelled and changed color because of a sudden whim, and then happened to meet Ji Wuchen who was unconscious on the ground and seriously injured.
There are many times in the world that there are indeed coincidences that make people feel unbelievable, but Ji Wuchen doesn't think that this matter has anything in common with those casual coincidences.
Because from the words of the girl Ah Cai, it can be clearly seen that the old man of the clan has a very clear goal from the beginning, whether it is that he is suddenly going to the forbidden place, or that his face does not change after seeing Ji Wuchen, it all proves that he knew that Ji Wuchen was there from the beginning.
He knew that Ji Wuchen was there, so he went there!
