A thatched hut that looked quite old gave off a yellowish glow, reflecting the light, and the vicinity of the thatched hut was densely dotted with at least dozens of similar houses.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but the moment I saw the light, I felt a lot more at ease. But soon I reacted, how can there be people living in a place where this bird doesn't poop?

Judging from the three big characters on the stele, the place where the houses gather not far away should be Shanghe Village. But the village was completely destroyed more than 20 years ago, and the people died and the houses were empty.

Xiaobai's terrible cry really made me unable to let go. I took a deep breath, shook off my fears, and cautiously walked towards the thatched hut with the lights on.

A distance of several hundred meters, I walked for more than ten minutes. I know better than anyone else that it is more important to be calm and cautious in times like these.

Based on some scattered information I have received before, coupled with my own judgment, I confirm that this is the abandoned Shanghe Village.

The lit thatched hut was in the middle of the village, and to get there you had to pass half the way through the village. The village was quiet, and walking in front of those abandoned houses, my nerves were tense and I didn't dare to breathe.

Most of the houses in the village are adobe houses, and you can occasionally see blue brick houses. Even at the level of more than 20 years ago, the village was definitely not much richer.

After all, after so many years, whether it is a brick house or an adobe house, it has been damaged. The wooden doors and windows were rotten, and the houses in the darkness looked like beasts with their mouths wide open, making people shudder.

I didn't dare to take a flashlight and shine it in those houses for fear of seeing something terrible. I was also a little apprehensive in my heart, and I always felt that something was staring at me in those black holes, and it might pounce on me at any time.

Feeling uneasy, I approached the thatched hut with the lights on, and my breath became rapid. After I could see the road roughly in the light from the house, I turned off my flashlight and approached the window lightly to take a closer look.

It can be seen that although this room is also old, it is very neatly tidy. At least the doors and windows are intact, and the lattice wooden windows are propped up, through which you can see the inside clearly.

The house was also very neatly clean, with a white Taishi chair and a desk about two meters long and more than one meter wide. Xiaobai lay quietly on the desk, looking like he was asleep.

In the corner of the desk was a kerosene lamp, and from time to time the wind blew into the room, the light flickered, and the black smoke drifted with the wind. When I was a child, this thing was also the main lighting tool in our house, so it was too contemporary.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like it's inhabited. If nothing else, at least Xiaobai doesn't have the ability to run here to sleep by himself.

I was excited, and under impulse, I almost broke into the door to find out Xiaobai's situation. But reason tells me not to act rashly now.

It was only when I got closer that I could see the structure of the house. The lighted house is not large, but it does not exist in isolation, but is attached to the courtyard of a blue brick house.

According to the layout, this room should only be a side house of the main house at the back. There is also a small door in the room, which should lead to the courtyard at the back.

I don't know what's going on inside the main house in the back, and I can't be sure if it's inhabited. If you rush in, it's a question of whether you can come out again.

"Xiaobai? How are you? Although I knew that Xiaobai would basically not wake up at this time, I still tentatively whispered.

Sure enough, Xiaobai didn't have the slightest intention of waking up. I didn't dare to say anything more, and turned my head to look at the main house behind the thatched house, trying to go around and secretly observe the situation inside.

I had just left when someone tapped me on the shoulder. I was startled, almost screamed, and just in time I rolled to the side.

"Hey, what's going on? Don't hide, you think you're making a movie? Get up quickly, I've seen you a long time ago. "It was a woman who spoke, and her voice was quite nice.

The most important thing is that it sounds familiar. I still didn't dare to be careless, so I turned over and stood up, leaned my back against the wall, and looked nervously at the people.

"You...... Is it really you? "After seeing each other's looks clearly, I was a little dumbfounded.

I blinked unconsciously, and at this moment I seriously suspected that I was dazzled. The woman who appeared in front of me turned out to be Tian Xin!

"It's funny, I saw you early in the morning, and walked slowly this way with a flashlight. I really don't know what you think, still hiding here and peeking? I don't know that I have been exposed a long time ago? Tian Xin teased.

I was embarrassed, in fact, I also wanted to turn off the flashlight in advance and sneak in the dark. But walking alone in a dark, oppressive village, I would be scared.

"No, why are you here?" I looked her up and down with wide eyes.

Tian Xin raised his eyebrows: "Why, listening to your tone, it doesn't seem to be a surprise." ”

Nima, how could there be a surprise in this? It's true that there are frightening! It is true that Tian Xin is missing, and Zhang Yang did say that she may look for me.

But the question is, how would she know I was here? How could it be so strange that it appeared here?

I had to doubt the authenticity of the "Tian Xin" in front of me, and as soon as my heart moved, I used the Qi Hope Technique to carefully observe it. That's right, it's a real person, and it should be me.

"This ...... Isn't this scientific? How could you be here? "I'm confused.

Tian Xin pouted: "Science? You're a big god, embarrassed to talk to me about science? In order to chase you, I have suffered a lot along the way, and your reaction has disappointed me too much. ”

My mind is full of question marks with a capital letter, and I have to suffer in order to chase me? This sentence sounds ambiguous, she fell in love with me, so she came to chase her husband for a thousand miles?

No, it's not right. When Tian Xin looked at me, there were no little stars in his eyes, and there was no trace of admiration and infatuation, only guilt.

"What's that...... Thank you and your grandpa for saving me. If it weren't for me, your grandfather probably wouldn't have died. Don't get me wrong, I'm just a little reluctant to see what I can do to help you. ”

Perhaps realizing that something was wrong with what he said just now, Tian Xin explained with an embarrassed smile.

I was stunned, Tian Xin didn't know the inside story, and probably thought that she was haunted by resentful spirits, which led to this series of consequences, so I was very upset.

Seeing Tian Xin's true feelings, which have always been a little "unreasonable", my mood is a little delicate. After thinking about it, I still carefully explained the ins and outs of the matter.

Grandpa's death really has nothing to do with her, and she is also a victim. Their Tian family has already paid a painful enough price because of that incident forty years ago.

Unexpectedly, before I finished speaking, Tian Xin smiled and waved his hand: "Don't explain, I know all this." But I still think that if it weren't for me, you probably wouldn't have been involved. ”

I frowned slightly and sighed softly. I admit that Tian Xin's actions have completely rewritten my impression of her, and she is not so "unreasonable".

It's all said and done, and there's no point in me explaining it anymore, people are already here, and I can't get rid of her now.

But what makes me curious is, how did she catch up? I received a call from Zhang Yang in the morning and knew that Tian Xin was missing.

Zhang Yang didn't call again after that, according to my judgment, Tian Jianjun and the others should not have found Tian Xin yet, otherwise Zhang Yang would definitely notify me.

There are only a handful of people who know the address of Shanghe Village, and this place is not found on the map at all. And when we set off, we didn't see Tian Xin, and she didn't meet anyone who knew the address of Shanghe Village.

"How the hell did you catch up? Xiaobai and I are very fast, even if we drive, we may not be able to keep up. I couldn't help the doubts in my heart and asked.

Tian Xin didn't answer my question directly, but pointed to the room and asked me to take a look for myself. Looking through the window at the scene in the room, I was stunned again.

Another familiar figure appeared in sight, Da Meng, the five big and three thick guys, was carefully feeding Xiaobai water with a straw.

One end of the straw was inserted into a mineral water bottle filled with water, and the other end was inserted into Xiaobai's mouth. Xiaobai's throat twitched a few times, and after a few sips of water, he spit out the straw.

From beginning to end, Xiaobai didn't open his eyes. He was just too tired, too weak, and didn't pass out, at least he knew how to drink water.

After feeding Xiaobai and drinking water, Da Meng raised his head and looked at me, showing a sincere smile. I let out a long sigh of relief, and my heart suddenly relaxed.

"Is it Dameng?" I muttered.

Tian Xin nodded: "When I arrived at Shanghe Village, the two of you had just walked for less than half an hour. I told Da Meng that I was your friend and wanted to help, and he didn't hesitate to borrow a motorcycle to take me to chase you. ”

Needless to say, I also know what they have suffered along the way. That bastard rides like a rocket, and many times on the road I thought I was going to have a car accident.

In order to catch up with us, Tian Xin and Da Meng also increased their horsepower along the way, and the degree of thrilling excitement was no less than ours. And the speed of the two of us was faster, in order to catch up, Tian Xin and Da Meng didn't even eat.

I muttered to myself that this fool had wanted to come along. Tian Xin's idea is right in his arms, and he must be willing to chase after him.

"On the way from that town, we both ran into a big motorbike halfway through. I didn't expect the road in the mountains to be so difficult to walk, and I almost slept in the wilderness. Tian Xin smiled and led me into the house, and she was also very emotional about the hike into the mountain.

Out of an abundance of caution, I still had a careful examination of Xiaobai, and apart from being weak, he was in good condition.

After finishing the work, I glanced at Tian Xin and Da Meng, and said with a wry smile helplessly: "You two are lucky, you actually found this place before us." Xiaobai and I really had to sleep in the wilderness before, and we almost lost our lives. ”

God will always play a joke on you once in a while, Xiaobai and I came earlier than the two of them, walked around the mountains for a long time, and were tossed a lot to find this. Unexpectedly, the two of them came late and found this place before us, and they had a temporary shelter.

Da Meng scratched his head: "Fortunately, the two of us met an uncle on the way, thanks to him who brought the two of us over, otherwise we would have lost our way." ”

"What? Is there really anyone here? "I was surprised to hear Da Meng's words.
