Lu Li carefully pinched up a piece of rice ball, smelling this weird and somewhat rancid rice ball, it was hard to imagine that this thing was eaten by people.

In the end, when he actually ate it, he almost didn't throw it up.

"Is this what people eat?" Lu Li still couldn't stand it, and spit out the rice balls in a few bites.

"Y-You're wasting!"

The girl was anxious and stomped her feet vigorously, "You wild ronin, don't follow me anymore." ”

She led the horse and walked forward faster, Lu Li shook his head, walked over to touch the corpses, and found some copper coins and Zhu coins from these corpses, maybe they were the currency of this era.

If you don't take it for nothing, thinking about when you might use it, Lu Li put it into his arms.

Slowly following behind the girl in front, Lu Li was not familiar with this place, so he naturally wanted to find someone to lead the way, he was not in a hurry, he followed for an hour, watching the girl rest, carefully mixing rice balls and water together to feed the baby girl, and he waited beside him.

When he came, it was very dark, and when the girl had finished feeding the baby girl, it was really dark.

In ancient times, there were no neon lights than in modern times, and at night in ancient times, the whole land was dark, especially in this situation where there was no moonlight illumination.

The ancients generally had night blindness, and at night it was basically impossible to see clearly, so the girl lit the oil lamp with a flint, and carried an oil lamp on.

Lu Li is a little strange, it stands to reason that it is impossible for a peasant girl to have such a luxury as an oil lamp, not to mention that this peasant girl can also shoot arrows, which is not something that ordinary peasant girls can do.

Fortunately, Lu Li was too lazy to pursue this kind of problem, he was all crossed by a bastard who didn't know which bastard, where was he still in the mood to pursue such a trivial matter.

"Huh, that's?"

Lu Li suddenly stopped, looking at the mountain road in astonishment, there was a crisp sound of "popping", and countless bright lights flew over like a silver belt.

"Don't move!"

The girl shouted loudly, her tone full of nervousness: "That's oil return, a ghost fire that comes out of the cemetery, and it will take people's souls. ”

“......”

No matter how Lu Li looks at it, he feels like a firefly, why is it called a ghost fire? In other words, at ordinary times, Lu Li may think that this is because the ancients did not have knowledge, but after going through so much from today to now, he will not think that this is really the reason why the ancients did not have knowledge.

Following the girl's instructions, Lu Li did not move until the ghost fire "oil return" floated away from the middle of the mountain road, and then walked towards the girl.

The girl breathed a sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from her forehead: "If you want to follow me, hurry up, we must go to the village below before the sun sets completely." ”

"Is it because of that ghost fire just now?" Lu Li thought thoughtfully.

"Not only that, but there are so many demons and evil spirits in the mountains late at night, you don't understand how terrible it is. ”

The girl's face was full of fear: "Even the armies of various countries dare not walk in the mountains late at night, once they encounter a hundred ghosts walking at night, even if it is a strong army, they will be wiped out." ”

So scary?

Lu Li gradually felt that this inexplicable place might be really dangerous, you see that the locals don't regard demons and ghosts as something strange, so it can be seen that demons and ghosts must be quite common things in this world.

Demons, he may not be afraid of the kind of monsters with physical bodies, but if it is the kind of ghost that cannot be seen or touched, he will also feel frightened.

He's a coward, after all.

The two sides quickened their pace, and finally walked for another half an hour, and the light of the sun was completely invisible, and at this moment, the two vaguely saw traces of lights under the mountain.

"Whew, it's almost there, it's Xiaomo Village. ”

The girl shouted excitedly, beckoning Lu Li to hurry up.

The distance was closer, and it didn't take long for them to come to the village.

The villages near the mountains have built a very high fence around the village, and planted thorny plants on the fence to prevent wild animals and unclean things from approaching, and they have raised dogs with a high sense of vigilance, which is probably very common in China and abroad.

But the original girl was still happy, and when she approached the village, her face immediately changed: "It's not good, did you hear the dog barking?"

"Dog barking? Lu Li said blankly.

"There's something wrong with that. The girl grabbed her bow and arrows, "I used to have barked when I approached here, but now I can't hear a single movement. ”

"Hmm, I see. ”

Lu Li nodded, and at the same time raised his vigilance.

The two walked to the end of the path, the fence door had been opened, not to mention the barking of dogs, and Lu Li still vaguely smelled a little blood.

This is...... Something went wrong?

The girl was a little hesitant, she didn't know whether to enter this kind of obviously problematic village, but if she didn't go in, then the chances of staying outside the village late at night would be slim to survive until the next day.

"You're staying here...... No, let's go in together. ”

Lu Li changed his words, no matter how dangerous it was to follow him, he still had a chance to protect the girl and the baby girl, but if it was out of his sight, something would really happen, but it would be too late to help.

The girl had seen Lu Li's skills, and after hearing this, she also nodded in agreement.

The two walked into the village one after the other.

Lu Li grew up in the mountainous areas of Guizhou when he was a child, and the villages in those mountainous areas were very poor, and many people had never been out of the mountains in their lives, but no matter how poor the villages were after New China, they were not as poor as such ancient villages.

His eyesight is also very good at night, looking at the past, most of the villages are mud walls made up of thatched houses, a little rainstorm, it is estimated that they can collapse, there is no valuable belongings, and there are no cattle and sheep, such a poor village, but also to face all kinds of demons and demons, the people living here are really hard enough.

I feel that there is no hope than living in the Middle East, after all, people in the Middle East can still be refugees, and if they escape to Germany, it is not a good life. Here, there is never a little hope, and one day it is eaten by demons, which is a sparse and normal normal operation.

Lu Li pushed open the door of the first thatched house, which was not locked, and the few bits of light in this village seemed to come out of here.

"Hey, anyone?"

He shouted softly, but received no response.

There was only one oil lamp in the thatched hut, which was emitting a faint glow, and in addition to that, some black jars and tiles could be seen, probably for food. As for the furniture, don't think too much about it, even the bed is just a straw mat.

"It seems like no one. ”

Lu Li turned back to the girl and said.

"Who's that?"

The girl ignored Lu Li's words and pointed to the house in horror.

"What?"

Lu Li turned his head suddenly, obviously in the room where no one was there just now, there was actually a figure sitting kneeling by the straw mat at this moment.
