"He hanged himself with his belt!"

Lovells pursed his lips, his eyes mixed with fear and disbelief.

Seeing that we didn't say anything, he suppressed his voice again and said, "He sat on the ground and hanged himself, with one end of his belt hanging on the back of the chair and the other end hanging on his neck, and when he died, his ass was still next to the ground!" ”

Lovells said as he pointed to the chair under our butts.

The chair we make is an ordinary wooden office chair, if you want to hang yourself, you have to put the belt on the back of the chair, under normal circumstances, the hanging rope made by this can at most cover the neck, don't think about hanging.

When a person is suffocated, he will subconsciously struggle, as long as he moves slightly, he will bring up a chair, and he will naturally not die.

But according to Lu Wei, the man was still hanged, hanging on a chair, which is obviously wrong.

To put it bluntly, this man was killed by someone.

Either it's the light rain on the road upstairs, or the people in the village.

"By the way, where have all the villagers gone? When I came, I didn't see a lot of people! I asked casually.

As for the hanged man in the netherworld, there is no need to ask.

"After the people in the village knew that my sister started to make trouble again, they have left one after another these days, and there are not many people left in the village!" Lu Wei said with some emotion.

After speaking, he said: "But with Master Huang and Master Chen here, I believe that my sister's problem will be solved!" ”

"Drink!"

Liu Ling Tongzi picked up the wine glass, didn't brag, didn't say anything open, and didn't say anything about Lu Wei's words.

This meal, everyone eats with their own thoughts.

After eating, it was already dark.

"Master Huang, Master Chen, it's not early, our brothers will withdraw first, the village is not peaceful at night, don't wander around if it's okay!"

I don't know if I'm really drunk or pretending to be drunk, Lu Wei bared his tongue and said goodbye and left.

"Brother-in-law, the atmosphere in the village is not right!"

As soon as Lu Wei left, Liu Ling Tongzi immediately opened his mouth.

"That's not right!"

I nodded.

Not to mention the villagers, just those people in the underworld, there are people in the village, at least they should be investigated, right?

But since we entered the village, we haven't encountered anyone who has come to investigate.

"Let's take a look!"

Situ Qing thought for a while and said.

"Hmm!"

I nodded, this time I came to the old village, I was actually a tool man, and I would do whatever Liu Ling Tongzi and Situ Qing said.

In fact, in my opinion, it is not only this village that is wrong, but also those people in the Yin Sect, even Situ Qing, who is also a little wrong.

Situ Qing's personality is very gentlemanly, and he belongs to the kind of person who can't rub sand in his eyes.

But along the way, Situ Qing said very little, and her brows were often locked, as if she had encountered something difficult, which was completely inconsistent with her character.

"Huh?"

I was thinking about it, when Liu Lingtong's face became more suspicious, and he got up and looked out the door.

The gate of the village committee is a semi-enclosed iron door, through the crack in the door, you can see the situation outside, I followed the gaze of Liu Ling Tongzi, and found the problem at a glance.

At the gate, I don't know when a red lantern was hung.

"Brother-in-law, have you noticed when that red lantern was hung?" Liu Ling asked directly.

"Didn't notice!" I shook my head and said, "If I'm not mistaken, when Lovells left, there were no lanterns on the door!" ”

Lovells left, only a little more than a minute.

To put it mildly, it's the kung fu of fart.

When he left, we didn't send it, we just stood up and watched him being carried away by Jin Yang and Chen Meng.

In just a few moments, a red lantern was hung on the door.

"Situ, did you see that?" I looked sideways at Situ Qing.

"Nope!"

Situ Qing also shook her head, she stared at the lantern for a while, and said, "I didn't find anything wrong, this is an ordinary red lantern!" ”

"Interesting!"

The Liu Ling boy smiled and got up and walked to the door.

I pondered for a moment and followed.

Seeing that I moved, Chu Siyu and Situ Qing also followed.

When we came to the gate, we didn't take off the lantern rashly, but stood under the gate and looked up at the lantern hanging on the door.

The lantern is papier-mâché, the skeleton is bamboo, and an oil lamp is placed inside.

"Good workmanship!"

After looking at it for a while, Liu Ling Tongzi muttered.

"It's good!" I chimed in.

Just from the surface of the lantern, you can't see anything, this is an ordinary lantern, and not only the village committee compound, as far as the eye can see, on the door of every house, there are lanterns.

"There are single and double!"

I looked at it for a while and saw a little bit of a doorway.

At the door of some houses, there are two lanterns, and at the door of others, there is a lantern, such as the compound of the village committee where we are located.

Also, there are very few people who hang two lanterns, and there are sixteen in my sight, and of these sixteen houses, only two lanterns are hung at the door of two houses, and the rest are one.

"Brother-in-law, do you have anything to say about this lantern?" Liu Ling asked with a smile.

"I don't know!"

I shook my head, turned around and walked back, and said, "I'm tired, I'll go back to sleep first!" ”

"I'm tired too!"

Liu Ling didn't say a word, and followed me back.

On the contrary, it was Situ Qing, who stood there and didn't move, frowning there and not knowing what to think!

"Situ, aren't you going back?" I couldn't help but ask.

"Back!"

Situ Qing spat out, his brows stretched slightly.

Lu Wei prepared a total of three rooms for us, one for me and Chu Siyu, one for Liu Ling Tongzi and one for Situ Qing, three rooms next to each other, and we lived next to each other.

Standing on the second floor, you can see the situation in the village more clearly.

The whole village, at this time, was shrouded in the dim red light of the lanterns.

"What the hell are these lanterns for?"

I was lost in thought.

Since entering the old village, there are many things that are wrong.

For example, those dogs barking wildly, such as those cars that have fallen a layer of dust, such as Lu Xiaoyu upstairs, and Liu Ling Boy who pretends to be Huang Feng.

The strangest thing is the attitude of those people in the underworld.

They came here to gain benefits in the Dragon's Lair, but now, "Huang Feng" is here, but they don't pay attention to it, which is obviously wrong.

Did they know that this "Huang Feng" was pretended to be by Liu Ling Tongzi?

This is unlikely, people who are not very familiar with Huang Feng are impossible to know that Huang Feng is pretending to be a Liu Ling boy.

So what are these people doing in the underworld?

It was in this contemplation that the time came to ten o'clock in the evening.

At this point in time, the village was still calm and nothing happened.

Not only did nothing unusual happen in the village, but even the light rain on the road upstairs was very quiet.

"Interesting!"

I muttered, walked out of the window, and turned back to bed.

"Xiaoyu, what do you think?"

Lying down is lying down, but I can't fall asleep after tossing and turning, so I gently patted Chu Siyu on my side.

"The atmosphere in the village is a bit strange, nothing else has been discovered!" Chu Siyu opened his eyes and said lightly.

"Hmm!"

What she said was pretty much what I found.

In fact, the strangest thing is still Lu Wei, when he talks about the dead people in the village, the expression is similar to the death of a cat and a dog, there is not much fear on his face, but most of the excitement.

I now have some doubts about how much of what he told us about Lu Xiaoyu is true and how much is false.

Bangbang!

In the midst of this confusion, I fell asleep in a daze, and I don't know how long later, I was woken up by a strange sound.

When I opened my eyes, I jerked to my feet and went to the window to look out.

Bangbang!

Just then, the strange sound rang out again.

Chu Siyu also got out of bed at this time and came to the window.

"What's going on out there?" I asked in a whisper.

"I don't know!" Chu Siyu shook his head.

As he spoke, the sound of the bang sounded again, and then there was a knock on the door.

"Who?" I was immediately alarmed.

"Me!"

With a flirtatious voice, Liu Ling Tongzi pushed the door in, and Situ Qing also followed.

"You've been woken up too?" I asked and glanced at the time, twelve and three in the morning.

"I didn't sleep!" Liu Ling Tongzi gritted his teeth and said, "Brother-in-law, the sound outside is the sound of bangzi, which is the kind of bangzi knocked by watchmen in ancient times!" ”

"It's dry, be careful with the candles, right?"

I quipped.

"Yes, yes, yes!" Liu Ling Boy smiled with his teeth.

"It's coming!"

Situ Qing suddenly opened his mouth at this time, stretched out his hand and pointed out.

Looking in the direction of Situ Qing's finger, several lanterns connected together entered our line of sight.

I counted, and there were six lanterns and eight people.

The two people in front of them did not carry lanterns in their hands, but carried something like a bangzi, and knocked on it after walking a few steps.

The six people in the back, each carrying a lantern in their hands.

The entire team, except for the sound of the two people who knocked on the bang, was silent.

"What is this doing?" I asked, puzzled.

"Patrol the streets!" Liu Ling replied.

"Nonsense, I didn't know it was street patrol yet?" I smacked my mouth.

"I know you're still asking!" Liu Ling Tongzi muttered.

"Paper people patrol the streets, idlers are not allowed to enter!"

Situ Qing spoke again, turned his head to look at us, and said, "It may not be a normal world outside!" ”

"Situ, you mean, the Netherworld?"

I immediately understood what Situ Qing was talking about!

Before Situ Qing said it, I didn't pay much attention to it, but now if I take a closer look, that team of people really doesn't look like living people.

What they were wearing was not normal people's clothes, but horse coats from the Republic of China, and melon skin hats on their heads.

This is just dressing, and then looking at the faces, under the dark red light of the lantern, you can see clearly, those faces, all stiff.

"That's right!" Situ Qing nodded.

The so-called netherworld is not the underworld, but similar to Dongmen Village, due to the excessive yin qi, a place similar to the underworld has been formed.

Under normal circumstances, living people cannot enter this kind of territory.

I remembered what Lovells had told us when he was leaving, he said that the night in the village was not very peaceful, so let's not wander around.

I thought he was drunk at the time, but now it seems that he has something to say.

If the night in the old village is the netherworld, then many things can be explained.

The villagers of the old village did not flee because of the light rain on the road, they probably fled because of the abnormal changes at night.

As for those cars that fell into the dust, and the people in the yin who disappeared, it can also be explained.

Since we entered the old village, there have been no people from the Yin Gate who have come to the door to take the initiative to worship the door, and no one has secretly peeped, which is obviously abnormal.

We couldn't figure it out before, but if the night in the old village was the netherworld, then everything could be explained.

These people from the Yin Gate came to the old village to come to the dragon's lair.

If I were them, I would definitely think that the location of the Dragon's Lair is certainly not a place that can be easily found.

When they found out that the old village had turned into the netherworld at night, they most likely thought that all this was caused by the dragon's lair.

Therefore, it is possible that they will take advantage of this opportunity to enter the mountain as soon as possible to find the dragon's lair.

I can remember that when I went to Dongmen Village, if Chu Siyu hadn't pulled me out and pulled me out, I was afraid that I would have been trapped in Dongmen Village.

Will those owners who have fallen into the dust be trapped here?

The more I thought about it, the more I thought so.

I told my guess, Situ Qing nodded when he heard it, and said, "It may be so!" ”

"Brother-in-law, what should we do now?" Liu Ling asked.

"Cold salad!"

I said angrily: "I came this time just to sew corpses, I don't want to care about anything else!" ”

Judging from the current situation, as long as we do not go out of the village committee compound, there will be no problems, and everything will return to normal after dawn.

But if I walk out of the village committee compound now, I don't know what will happen then.

The most important thing is that my current attitude is not important, I very much want to know, what will Liu Ling Tongzi and Situ Qing do?

The approach of the two of them represents Huang Feng's attitude.

I'd better be the same for now.

Liu Ling Tong said that Huang Feng came to the village three days in advance, is it possible that he did not arrive during the day, but at night, I suspect that Huang Feng may have arrived at the location of the dragon's lair now.

"Meow!"

Without waiting for Liu Ling Tongzi to open his mouth to express his attitude, a terrible cat meow broke the stable scene created by the sound of bangzi.

"The cry came from the house where the two lanterns were hung!" Liu Ling Tongzi pointed his little hand and shouted with a little excitement.

"Hmm!"

I don't need to say this, I've seen it.

The pair of paper figures patrolling the streets were rushing into a house with two lanterns, and the sound of bangzi not only did not stop, but became urgent.

Bang Bang!

A series of hurried sounds, as if to send some kind of signal.

"Meow!"

As six paper figures rushed into the house, the mournful meow of the cat rang out again.

The two paper men guarding the door knocked the bangs even faster.

"Interesting!"

Liu Ling Tongzi rolled up his sleeves and became even more excited.

Situ Qing's performance was the opposite of Liu Ling's boy, she frowned and looked at the family, not knowing what she was thinking!

I don't care, I just watch the show.

"Meow!"

When the third terrible cat meow sounded, the door of the house slammed loudly, and a black shadow like lightning rushed out, guarding the door, knocking on the two paper figures back and forth, the two paper figures fell down, and the sound of the bangzi stopped abruptly.

"Cat baby!"

I thought it was a cat coming from the meow, but when the thing rushed out, I could see clearly by the light of the lantern that it was not a cat at all, but a monster with a human face and a cat's body.

After the baby cat killed the two paper figures guarding the door, it did not stop and immediately fled.

I noticed that the baby cat did not enter any of the rooms, but fled frantically along the village avenue.

This escape route is not right, under normal circumstances, it should be running around in the village house, and the best thing to do is to find a vacant house and hide it.

But this baby cat is not hidden, and looking at its appearance, it seems that the avenue is safer than the house.

This choice is obviously wrong, unless these houses in the village are really dangerous.

Bang Bang!

Less than ten seconds after the baby cat fled, a rapid bangzi sounded, and this time, the direction of the bangzi sound was the side of the village near Hutou Mountain.

Hearing this voice, my eyes shrank, could it be that these paper figures came out of Hutou Mountain?

If so, it can explain why the old village has become what it is today.

"Meow!"

As the sound of the bang sounded again, the baby cat screamed again, as if to provoke.

"Brother-in-law, it's lively now!" Liu Ling Tong rubbed his hands excitedly, his eyes full of schadenfreude.

"That room is a problem too!" Situ Qing raised his hand at this time.

Situ Qing was referring to a house diagonally opposite the village committee compound, with two lanterns hanging at the door of that house.

I noticed that there were also two lanterns hanging at the door of the house where the baby cat rushed out.

Does this mean that there are problems in the house with two lanterns, or that the house with two lanterns is inhabited by outsiders?

But if that's the case, shouldn't two lanterns be hung at the door of the village committee compound?

There are a few of us, but all of us are foreigners.

Thinking of this, a possibility suddenly popped up in my heart, I looked up and looked up, the reason why one lantern was hung in the village committee compound instead of two was most likely because of the light rain on the road.

"Shadow Puppet!"

Situ Qing spoke again at this time.

I didn't need her to say it, I saw it too.

In the house diagonally opposite the compound of the village committee, a bunch of villains rushed out.

These little people are not much bigger than newborn babies, and they are all as thin as pieces of paper.

After these villains rushed out of the house, they didn't say a word, and rushed out of the village.

I frowned at all this, these shadow puppets were just a decoy.

When shadow puppets appear, there are naturally shadow puppeteers.

Now that the main owner has not appeared, it means that these shadow puppets have come out just to attract attention.

As these villains fled, the sound of bangs became louder and more intense, but it was the cat baby from before, which would be silent.

I've noticed that there are already paper figures carrying lanterns to intercept these shadow puppet figures.

This is somewhat wrong, these shadow puppet villains came out, but there was no movement, but the strange thing is that those paper people patrolling the street did not look for cat babies, but looked for these shadow puppet villains.

Could it be that the persimmon picks the soft pinch?
