Volume 4 Embattled Chapter 19 Into the Village
However, in fact, when the ten of us stood on the high ground at the entrance of the village and looked at the village through the dim evening light, we found that the whole village was intact, and there was no trace of arson or smashing at all, which is completely opposite to the story we heard in the car.
Seeing this, Zhao Hong was even more shocked, and muttered, "How come, we obviously destroyed the village!" ”
Immediately, an idea popped up in my mind, what if all this was a game, and Zhao Hong was one of the important chess pieces to lure us to come? Then his statement, his injury, there is almost no credibility.
I'm not the only one who has this kind of thought, and the straight-talking fat man asked directly, "I said, Zhao Hong, haven't you been lying to us!" ”
Hearing this, Heizi's body moved silently behind Zhao Hong, not knowing whether it was guard or protection.
Of course, Zhao Hong is not stupid, he knows that we suspect him, I saw him raise his head and look at us with a shocked face, and his tone did not want to argue very much, but said sadly, "Our three brothers have followed the fifth master to the rivers and lakes since he was ten years old, and it has been nearly thirty years now, how can he lie to you about his safety, this village has indeed been completely destroyed by us, and the only possibility is that those black shadows have been rebuilt during the time I left." ”
I quietly looked at Heizi, for Zhao Hong, he was the only one here who would know a little more. Kuroko noticed my gaze and nodded slightly, indicating that she could believe it.
The big head looked at the village in front of him with a serious face, and only said after a while, "I don't think it was done by the black shadows, Zhao Hong, you said before, after the fifth master and they went into the water, you still waited in our current position for two days before leaving for Beiping City, and in those two days, the black shadows did not show any intention of building a house at all, but as soon as you left, in just two days, the house was repaired?" In my opinion, Kuroko is right, and the villagers of Changshou Village must live in this vicinity, always observing the situation here. ”
"Hey," said the fat man, "are those rats?" How do you do this kind of shrunken thing," he said, taking the binoculars out of his backpack and placing them in front of him, his body slowly moving in all directions, trying to find someone who might be watching us. As you can imagine, he couldn't find it, so he shouted at the monkey, "Monkey, you are the fastest, go up to the top of that mountain to see if there are any other villages or any signs of human activity in the vicinity, the descendants of those golden kingdoms are still human beings after all, whether they are human beings who eat, drink, and sleep, and they can't really live underground like mice." ”
The monkey nodded, put down his backpack and prepared to leave, and I hurriedly beckoned, "Pay attention to safety, go and go back quickly." ’
Xiu'er watched the figure of the monkey go there, and the anxiety in her heart caused by all the strange things she had heard about this village on the road before had obviously not diminished much, and she only heard her say worriedly, "It won't be a problem for him to go alone, right?" ”
Pang Qinghe has been depressed since the last time he learned about Pang Tianhui, and the whole person seems to have returned to the Pang Qinghe we knew at the beginning, she stood next to Xiu'er, comforting and said, "Don't worry, no matter what, the speed of the monkey is a big advantage, it is a little difficult to catch him, don't forget, he is a monkey, and the mountains and forests are his hometown!" ”
Hey, my estimate is wrong, Pang Qinghe is in the mood to joke. (To be continued......)
