Chapter 19: The Strange Village
The jeep drove along the muddy mountain road, and the thunder rumbled all around, and the sky was overcast.
At this time, the mountain road was already covered with mud, and the muddy water had become a small stream on the road.
It was about ten minutes or so, and the jeep that Su Bai was riding caught up with the jeep in front.
At this time, the jeep in front of it seemed to be afraid of something, and the speed gradually slowed down.
"Ah......h
Su Bai listened, estimated the distance in his heart, and was horrified to find that the jeep had been driving for so long, and the sound of 'bobcat calling spring' had never been far away.
That thing is following this car!
Thinking of this, Su Bai already understood in his heart that the thing that made the sound of 'cat calling spring' was definitely not the so-called bobcat.
After all, ordinary animals, where will they run with the car.
Su Bai looked at the other three people in the car, and found that their faces didn't know what to do and became alert.
"Ah!!h At this moment, the cry suddenly became louder, as if it was a little angry.
Then, the cry was gradually pulled behind by the jeep.
"Damn, this 'bobcat' is a bit fierce!" It was at this time that Zheng Yu in the front row spoke, and his tone was full of joy.
"If it weren't for your broken mouth, how could that thing come up." The middle-aged man said speechlessly.
"Hey, how did I know this thing was nearby, but aren't we going to deal with him sooner or later?" When Zheng Yu heard this, his tone was slightly weak.
"Not now." The girl in front said calmly.
Listening to their words, Su Bai's brows gradually frowned, and he began to think back to what Zheng Yu and the others had said.
The middle-aged man said that Zheng Yu's broken mouth attracted that thing.
However, he felt that Zheng Yu didn't say anything just now, at most it was just a few jokes.
Apart from...... That story.
Could it be that there really a domestic pig that eats the child?
The sound came from a pig?
Thinking of that scene, Su Bai's heart gave birth to some indescribable feelings.
It's like...... He saw Zhu Yingying kill people the night before.
Absurd, yet terrifying.
Are there resurrected people again?
Su Bai took a soft breath.
"Little brother, it's all right, it's just a beast." At this time, the middle-aged man on the side seemed to find that Su Bai's face was wrong, and he couldn't help but comfort him.
Su Bai nodded, looking at the pitch-black forest outside, as if he felt that something in the forest was staring at him.
He closed his eyes slightly, recalling Zhu Yingying's memories in his mind.
However, in Zhu Yingying's memory, she has only been here a handful of times, and she has never heard of such a strange thing.
And it also made his plan to find useful information from Zhu Yingying's memory come to naught.
With a soft sigh in his heart, Su Bai continued to look out the window, and at this time, the rain in the sky was getting heavier and heavier.
It was already afternoon, but it was like evening.
Two jeeps continued to weave through the mountains.
The rain has gradually stopped.
Along the way, Su Bai also saw some wild rabbits, pheasants, muntjac and other animals.
The wild resources here can be said to be very rich, and the middle-aged man next to him joked that he would get some game to eat.
At six or seven o'clock in the evening, the two jeeps finally drove into the mountain village.
The mountain villages here are lined with rice paddies.
At this time, the rice in these paddies has a little yellow, and it is estimated that it will not take long to ripen.
The jeep turns on the main road and drives along the path next to the rice paddies towards the mountain village.
When the two cars drove into the mountain village, many of the people in the mountain village walked out of their houses, and they were very curious about the guests who came in a hurry.
Subsequently, the two cars were parked in a clearing in the village.
In the jeep in front, a girl in her twenties and an old man in his sixties walked down.
Su Bai and the others also got out of the car.
"You're the leader of the town who notified you to come, right? I am the village chief of Kawasawa Village, and I welcome the leaders to our village. At this time, a dark-skinned old man walked up to the sixty-year-old man, shook his hand, and said excitedly.
The old man in front was held by the township chief, shook his head slightly, and pointed to the girl behind him with a smile and said, "I'm not the leader, that's our leader." ”
The village chief followed the old man's finger and looked behind him, and saw a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old.
"Hello, my name is Chu Hongyue, and I came here to accept the above task." Chu Hongyue nodded and said calmly.
The township chief still had doubts about Chu Hongyue's age at first, but seeing her steady appearance, the doubts in his heart were a little dissipated.
"I'm sorry, I made a mistake." The township chief looked apologetic towards Chu Hongyue, and then said, "A few of you have been on the road for a long time, come to my house to rest." ”
With that, he led the way ahead.
Chu Hongyue walked in front and led everyone to follow.
Su Bai stood behind, his expression was slightly hesitant, he was not in this team after all, and he didn't know if he should follow.
"Hey." It was at this time that a female voice came.
Su Bai looked for prestige, and saw the girl in her twenties coming over, looking at him speechlessly.
"What's the matter with you, I'm all covered in mud, you don't know how to go back, and you still come to the mountain." The girl frowned and said.
Hearing her words, Su Bai's brows also furrowed.
This girl drove a jeep and splashed him with mud on purpose?
"Ning Xuan." But at this time, Chu Hongyue in front turned her head and called a girl.
"Cut, boring." Ning Xuan heard Chu Hongyue's voice, shrugged her shoulders, and followed the team.
"That ......" It was at this time that Chu Hongyue looked at Su Bai with a hesitant look on her face.
Seeing her expression, Su Bai immediately said, "Let's talk about things first." I'm going to see my friend's child first. ”
"Well, okay, you come back early." Chu Hongyue nodded, and then led people and followed behind the township chief.
Su Bai looked at the backs of everyone leaving, and pondered slightly in his heart.
Something is obviously going on here, otherwise, when Chu Hongyue and the others speak, it is impossible to say anything about tasks or anything like that.
But then, Su Bai glanced around and found that the people here were normal, and it didn't look like something was wrong.
"Young man." At this time, the old man who walked at the end of the line suddenly stopped and walked towards Su Bai, with an apologetic look on his face: "I'm sorry for today's incident, Ning Xuan, she doesn't know how to be polite, and she stained your clothes while driving." ”
"It's okay, in fact, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know if I would have been able to go up the mountain tonight." Su Bai hurriedly said.
"Hey." When the old man heard his words, he suddenly sighed, then hesitated, and said, "This mountain is actually not very safe, you have to be careful." ”
When Su Bai heard this, he wanted to ask, but the old man seemed to know what he was going to ask, waved his hand, turned around, and followed the team.
Looking at the backs of them leaving, Su Bai looked at the village in the dim light again, and looked at the villagers in the village who showed various expressions, and his heart suddenly beat non-stop, as if he was caught by this darkness.
