Chapter 20: The Strange Village

The water is so deep, it is estimated that the snow and ice accumulated in the snow-capped mountains here for many years, and it is right in the groove, which is why there is such a deep water. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

We walked inside, although the clothes on our bodies were blistered and floated, and the gravity of the water made it a little difficult to walk under our feet, and it was cold and biting, but we could bear it.

"Are you stepping on my clothes?" I looked at the little fat man with a complaining expression.

The little fat man looked at me with extremely resentful eyes, "Boss, I'm so far away from you, and my legs aren't so long!" ”

I wondered for a moment, why did I always feel like I was leaving. Something was tugging at my feet and making it a little difficult for me to walk.

Jiang Li's face was gloomy, he turned around and walked behind me, and said in an extremely serious tone, "There is something under the water, be careful." ”

That's when I suddenly felt something slippery out of my ankle.

Jiang Li said, "As long as you don't take the initiative to attack, it doesn't matter what is in the water, keep walking." ”

Looking at Jiang Li's confident look, he must know what is in the water, it is really a bit strange here, I walked about 500 meters along the stagnant water, and when I came out, it turned out to be the entrance of a village.

There is also a village here in Kunlun Mountain, which is somewhat similar to the size of our village, no more, no less, just enough for the basic of the village.

I wondered in my heart, this Yin General probably didn't live in the village, probably in some cave. Or somewhere else, this kind of uneventful-looking village, not like a place where this kind of character would live.

Jiang Li saw me looking at me with a hesitant expression, and couldn't help but say, "The more unexpected the place, the more possible." Although I look down on this man, I have to admire his intelligence, although he will not use it in the right way. ”

Listening to Jiang Li's meaning, General Yin should live here.

When we walked into the village, we found that the weather was extremely harsh, and it was surrounded by snow-capped mountains. The temperature here is very low, and the clothes worn by the villagers are also thick and low-sleeved cotton jackets, only the three of us wear extremely special, because we came from the desert before, and we naturally wore less, Jiang Li and I were wearing Taoist robes, more or less covered, but the little fat man was wearing a pair of suspenders and short sleeves, which made him shiver with cold.

Seeing the situation, Jiang Li simply said, "Find someone to borrow some clothes first." ”

The little fat man was very happy to hear this, and his cold legs jumped straight up, I was afraid that if he didn't hurry up to borrow a piece of clothing, in another hour, the little fat man would become a natural popsicle.

This village is also quite interesting, no matter which family, whether the family has money or not, all of them have to light two red lanterns outside the door, all the way, the whole village is red fluttering lanterns, but it also looks a little festive.

But because of the heavy wind and snow, the weather is cold, and basically every house has its doors closed, and occasionally a few people take brooms to clean up the snow in front of the door.

As soon as I walked to the front of a house, an old woman was sweeping the snow in front of her house. When he looked up and saw a few of us coming, his face changed greatly, and he hurriedly walked towards Jiang Li, "You are outsiders, you are wearing so little, I'm afraid you're going to freeze, hurry in and drink hot soup." ”

Before we could react, the old woman took us into the courtyard, quickly closed the gate tightly, sneakily looked around, and quickly led us to the house to rest.

The old woman lit a charcoal fire in the house to keep us warm. In an instant, the whole person seemed to be reborn, Jiang Li didn't seem to be afraid of heat or cold, the whole person was like nothing, me and the little fat man were almost not holding the carbon brazier.

The old woman looked at us mysteriously a few times, and said after a long time. "The wind will be stronger tonight, so don't go out, just stay here and rest, I have a room here to clean up, and you can live there."

The old woman's enthusiasm made me a little uncomfortable, what kind of people in our village were, I know best, the people in the village are mellow and simple, but they will not take the initiative to let outsiders into the house, basically they make their own requests, and others will agree.

And this old woman. The enthusiasm is a bit too much.

I glanced around vigilantly, the furnishings in the house were very simple, and I could see that this old woman's family life was quite poor, but it was a little strange that this courtyard was empty, and only this old woman lived here, which really made people feel a little incredible.

After a while, the old woman walked into the kitchen, saying that she wanted to bring us a few bowls of soup to warm up, I looked at Jiang Li vigilantly, "Is there a problem?"

Jiang Li said expressionlessly, "If you come, you will be safe." ”

From the moment I walked into this village, I felt that something was wrong, but I couldn't say it, and when I saw this old woman, I also had a strange feeling. However, I don't know what's weird.

I felt very aggrieved in my heart, and I always felt that there was a problem.

At this time, the old woman cautiously walked towards us with the soup and politely said, "Drink some." It's very cold outside, and if you stay a little longer, your body will definitely not be able to bear it. ”

The little fat man asked with interest, "Mother-in-law, your village is quite chic, why do you have to hang lanterns in front of every house?" ”

The old woman's eyes suddenly twitched slightly. His face was extremely pale, and he said with a very unnatural expression, "There is no reason, it looks good, and every family is just hanging up." ”

I don't know if I've been following Jiang Li for a long time, I can clearly feel that this old woman is avoiding this topic, and she is lying, and her face is very uncomfortable.

At this time, the old woman pushed the soup down in front of us and said, "Drink the soup, drink the soup, drink some soup to warm your body, and you can sleep comfortably for a while." ”

I was very depressed. In case there is a problem with this old woman, after all, this place is very likely to have something to do with General Yin, I don't dare to drink it, I turned my head and looked, Jiang Li actually poured a big gulp into my stomach, and seeing that Jiang Li didn't say anything, I had to drink the soup hard.

After a while, the old woman took some clothes from the house and handed them to us, and said with a hint of apology on her face, "These are all my old man's clothes, don't dislike them." ”

Then the old woman took us into the house to rest.

After the old woman walked out, I hurriedly asked Jiang Li. "Why do I feel a little strange, is there something wrong with this old woman Jiang Li?"

Jiang Li said calmly, "There's nothing wrong with her, it's not her who has the problem." ”

I was waiting for Jiang Li to continue, but Jiang Li didn't say anything, selling Guanzi. Makes me anxious.

The little fat man woke up the dreamer with a word, and the little fat man said to me, "It's the first time I've heard of a village in Kunlun Mountain. It's like deliberately letting others see it. ”

Jiang Li glanced at me, and said without any expression on his face, "Don't do anything, when the time comes, all the problems will be solved." ”

I had no choice but to sigh and say. "Got it."

Since Jiang Li has already spoken like this, he must know it in his heart, and I have calmed down, and my heart is not so frizzy.

After a while, there was a crisp knock on the door, and the old woman opened the door and walked in, looking at us with a smile on her face and saying, "It is windy at night, and the amount of wind and snow is the heaviest, so try not to go out, just stay in the house." Just tell me when you leave tomorrow. ”

"Okay." The little fat man said happily.

As soon as the words fell, the old woman turned around and closed the door in a trembling voice.

This move made me even more curious, I glanced at Jiang Li, and he was still lying on the side with a disapproving and leisurely expression.

At that time, I was young and vigorous, so I was full of curiosity about everything, and I had to figure things out clearly, otherwise I would not be able to sleep at night.

In the second half of the night, seeing that Jiang Li and the little fat man were already asleep, I quickly got up, grabbed a thick cotton jacket and put it on my body, quietly and silently pushed the door open, and walked out.

The surrounding area is black and oppressive. I took my backpack out with me and grabbed my flashlight and walked towards the yard.

As soon as I walked to the entrance of the courtyard, I could hear the noise outside, as if it was very lively, I pushed open the gate to reveal a small crack, and opened one eye and closed one eye. Look out at the slit.

The scene in front of me almost didn't scare me.

During the day, it was still a deserted and snow-shrouded village outside, but now at night, the lights were bright, and a group of villagers were wandering outside, and if you looked closely, there was no shadow of these people∡ and they were all walking on tiptoe, which was obviously not a living person.

Looking at the faces of these people again, there is not much difference between them and the appearance of those villagers during the day, but there is a bulging pimple on each person's forehead, which looks extremely weird and indescribably nervous.

These people all walked in the direction of the red lantern to the other side, and these people all had a sense of excitement on their faces, as if they were going to do something terrible, so the noise and noise outside were all made by these people.

"What are you doing?" A faint voice came from behind me.

I was so frightened that I quickly turned around to take a look, and instantly breathed a sigh of relief, exhale, it turned out to be a little fat man.

"Look outside." I pointed behind the door.

The little fat man looked at me with disgust, "Is there a ghost outside?" Pushing me away with a disdainful face, looking outside, I almost didn't fall to the ground, the little fat man looked at me with a blue face, "Damn, that's ...... What's out there! ”

I motioned for him to keep his voice down and not to alarm the others, "I don't know who these people are, they can't touch the ground with their heels, and there are no shadows on the ground, which means that these people are not alive." ”
