Changsheng Village is the name of the mysterious abandoned village that Zhao Chensi explored.

According to legend, the establishment period of that village can be traced back to the Qin Dynasty at the earliest, when the first emperor was still struggling to find the elixir of life, the small village that escaped from the world has been patronized by immortals, and even left the method of immortality, so the people who have lived in that village for a long time are very long-lived, so it is called Changsheng Village or Longevity Village, this phenomenon has continued until the whole village is gradually abandoned and abandoned in modern times.

Of course, the reason for the abandonment of the village is not mixed with supernatural factors, this Zhao Chensi collected a lot of relevant information before going to the village, and extracted the reasons that may lead to the abandonment of the village from these materials: with the development of science and technology, after the improvement of people's quality of life, a large number of young and middle-aged people left their hometowns and poured into the big cities to seek opportunities out of the closed villages; The village is located in the mountains, the geographical location is too closed, and the living conditions are extremely difficult, and there are few foreign teachers willing to teach here for a long time, and the children in the village have to walk four or five kilometers over the mountains and mountains at every turn. In addition, more than 50 years ago, the fixed water source near the village began to dry up, and when the farmland could not be irrigated, and even the drinking water and livelihood of people and livestock became a problem and they had to rely on state relief for many years, the end of the whole village migration was already doomed.

In summary, the need for education, the migration of young people to large cities, the inability to meet the basic needs of life, and the biggest difficulty of transportation congestion are mixed in, and as a result, the whole village has migrated to nearby towns with good transportation with the help of the state.

The state has always had strong support for infrastructure construction in remote areas, but there are still a lot of scattered villages like the mysterious abandoned villages in the roof forest area of Sichuan and Hubei provinces, because it is extremely difficult to build roads along the mountain roads in the mountains, and the investment is also very large, plus the local villagers also have the desire to migrate, so there is also a plan to help the whole village relocate.

So far, there are not too many supernatural factors or legends mixed in it, but when this village was abandoned, supernatural stories began to spread, especially in the new millennium, after the information age was more convenient to disseminate information, and it was more difficult to distinguish the authenticity of information.

By the time Zhao Chensi tiptoed to wash, picked up his bags and quietly slipped out of his home and walked to the bus stop, the sky outside was already bright, he looked at his mobile phone to determine the time, and found that it was still early to meet Wanqi, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when the time was completely enough.

Two days ago, it was because he overslept with a pigeon, and when he woke up, it was already four or five o'clock in the afternoon, and there was no bus to the roof forest area of Sichuan and Hubei at that time, which led to the original plan to explore the abandoned village in the end.

That's why he set twelve alarms on his phone today and got up almost two hours early.

Even though he knew that this expedition was likely to be just a farce in the end as usual, for some reason Zhao Chensi was still full of anticipation in his heart to prepare for this expedition.

…………

Eight hours later, I got on the bus from Yandu Bus Station to the roof forest area of Sichuan and Hubei Ridge.

The bus has been away from the city for a long time, and the trees and vegetation on both sides of the road have gradually become dense and vigorous with the buildings that are constantly moving away from the city, away from the hustle and bustle of the city.

Mr. Zhao, who was still excited about the expedition, is now leaning against the window like a dead fish.

After six or seven hours of driving, the enthusiasm and excitement when he first got into the car had been worn out, and now all he had left in his heart was sitting on his buttocks, and he really wanted to move his body, why hadn't he arrived yet...... Thoughts like that.

At first, he could still talk to Wan Qi, and Zhao Chensi, who couldn't find anyone to talk to, could only start the liver mobile game, and when the phone ran out of power, the power bank was thrown into the trunk under the car with a large bag, and he could only look at the natural scenery outside the window to relieve his boredom.

Tunnels one after another, green vegetation and small trees crawling up the hillsides, the occasional field and large farmland, the quaint towns built on the hills, and the ethereal mountains in the distance, where almost half of the peaks are hidden in the clouds.

At first, this kind of scenery was quite novel and interesting for a child like Zhao Chensi, who grew up in the city, but after watching it for a few hours, he should get tired of it.

Wan Qi beside him had already adjusted the back of the seat to a comfortable angle to fall asleep, and most of the other people in the car chose to close their eyes and sleep directly under this long-term and long-distance movement, and the slight snoring sound could be heard everywhere in the entire carriage.

For Zhao Chensi, who is a little active, it is really a very painful thing to sit on a long-distance bus for more than eight hours, and the air conditioning in the car causes the air to be a little turbid, and as time goes by, he begins to feel a little dizzy and uncomfortable with nothing to do, and his spirit has become sluggish.

In a dizzy and dazed state, Zhao Chensi also leaned on the car window and entered the dream.

It wasn't a pleasant dream.

In the dream, Zhao Chensi seemed to be chased into a corridor by something, he didn't know what was chasing him behind him, but the uncontrollable fear and desire to survive in his heart drove him to crawl hard through the hole that emitted a glimmer of light in front of him.

The road is so narrow and cramped that adults can barely get through it if they bend down and crawl forward.

Zhao Chensi didn't know how long he had been crawling towards the source of light in this dimly lit and cramped passage, maybe a few minutes, or maybe a few hours. Time has no practical meaning for the person in the dream, and it is not until a certain moment that he suddenly feels light, the oppression caused by being in a small space dissipates, and his vision suddenly opens up and is filled with dazzling sunlight, that he leaves the oppressive corridor.

As soon as the picture turned, he seemed to have come to a peach blossom forest again, and the petals falling from the leafy peach trees formed a rain of flowers flying in the sky, making people feel as if they were in a fairyland on earth, and he and Wan Qi walked in this peach blossom forest with several backpackers whose faces could not be seen clearly.

Then he began to cough uncontrollably, and as he coughed out, puffs of dust and smoke came out, and the dusty smoke was coughed out, and he felt his body becoming lighter.

And his friend Wan Qi beside him, the skin and flesh of his arm began to tear from the inside out in the constant coughing, and from the upturned flesh and bones, he vaguely saw that there was a centipede-like myriapede entrenched in the torn wound, wriggling and drilling out of Wan Qi's torn skin little by little, bringing out a large number of broken pieces of flesh and blood, and two iron wire-like tentacles extended towards the frightened Zhao Chensi......

"Hey, wake up, Kui Town is here, we're going to get off!" The violent shaking made Zhao Chensi wake up from the nightmare that frightened him, he looked up at the side in shock, and saw Wan Qi's eyes with some concern: "What's wrong?" With such a bad face and sweating all over your head, you shouldn't be motion sickness, right? ”
