In the early morning, the sky was slightly bright, in a little mist, Cheng Wang got off the bus with a bag on his back, the driver uncle said that the mountain road in front of him was not open to traffic, and he could only walk, Cheng Wang looked at the navigation on his mobile phone, but fortunately there were two miles of foot away from Baicun.

Amid the nagging of the driver's uncle complaining about the poor administrative efficiency of the local government, Cheng Wang had already put on his backpack and was ready to move towards the mountain village he had seen in his first illusion.

Looking at the navigation in his hand, Cheng Wang said to himself: "Baicun? ”

"White Village! Little brother, are you going to Baicun too? The refreshing female voice suddenly sounded in his ears, Cheng Wang was startled, and turned his head to respond.

only to find out that it was the cheongsam girl I saw last time.

Xu Xiangwan also reacted, pointed at Cheng Wang and said in surprise: "Ah! It's you! Very fragrant and fragrant boys! ”

Cheng Wang slowly typed a question mark in his mind.

？

It's very fragrant, what the hell is the setting?

Cheng Wang scratched his head and said speechlessly: "I have a name, Cheng Wang, what about you?" ”

The girl said very generously: "Xu Xiangwan." ”

Cheng Wang looked behind Xu Xiangwan and said with a little surprise: "Just you?" ”

Xu Xiangwan spread his hands: "Senior Brother Zhang wants to accompany your Captain Lu to sort out the case file, and he should be able to come over in the afternoon." ”

Cheng Wang first nodded obediently.

Suddenly, he reacted suddenly: "The land team is also coming?" ”

He had asked for leave in advance, and if he met here, it would be unclear.

"If your captain Lu doesn't come, our Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain will come and have a look." Xu Xiangwan seemed to be very interested in Cheng Wang, and kept staring at his face.

Cheng Wang was a little uncomfortable in his gaze, and quickly changed the topic and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Xu Xiangwan's eyes narrowed slightly: "Brother Cheng, I also want to ask you this question." ”

Cheng Wang hurriedly turned his head away from looking at her, and explained intermittently: "I... I... I was by chance... Know this place. ”

Xu Xiangwan let out a long "oh~" and said with a smile: "The reason why I came here is because the style of those black umbrellas reminds me of the Anzi banquet in Qingling Mountain." ”

Cheng Wang's pupils constricted, and he suddenly raised his head to stare at Xu Xiangwan: "You know...... An Zi Banquet? ”

Xu Xiangwan still looked at Cheng Wang with a smile: "Brother Cheng, it seems that you also know a lot." ”

…………………………………

"So, An Ziyan can be said to be your master's uncle?" Cheng Wang took out a bottle of water from his bag and handed it to her.

"Uh-huh." Xu Xiangwan took it generously.

Surprisingly unsuspecting.

Cheng Wang thought to himself.

"I thought you were also a Taoist priest from Longhu Mountain." Cheng Wang scratched his head.

"Ahh Actually, I am the last generation of Qingling Mountain disciples, and I have lived in the Daomen of Longhu Mountain since I was a child. ”

"Huh? So what are you equivalent to? Cheng Wang remembered the bronze token in his jacket pocket.

"You even know that?!" Xu Xiangwan approached Cheng Wang and curiously took out a token of white jade carving, "Actually, I am the master of the Qingling Mountain Dao Gate!" ”

The bronze token seemed to tremble slightly, which made Cheng Wang a little puzzled.

As the two walked and talked, the outline of the village gradually came into view.

Shrouded in mist, the blue brick houses are like a peach blossom paradise in the mountains.

Cheng Wang was stunned: "It's so beautiful." ”

Xu Xiangwan just smiled: "It's so fragrant." ”

Cheng Wang turned his head to look at her suddenly, Xu Xiangwan smiled, and looked harmless to humans and animals.

Cheng Wang shuddered inexplicably, thinking: This girl won't have any strange fetishes, right?

As soon as he entered Bai Village, a young man with an obscene appearance came up and accosted: "Yo, a beautiful woman from the city?" Meet me, my name is Zhang Hu. ”

obviously regarded Cheng Wang, who was standing on the side, as a little transparent.

Cheng Wang suddenly reached out and grabbed the obscene young man's wrist tightly.

The tiger's eyes were contemptuous: "Are you her master?" But is that so? ”

Cheng Wang lowered his head and chuckled: "She is my friend." ”

Gradually increase the strength of your hands.

Zhang Hu screamed in pain: "Let go!" Let me go! ”

Cheng Wang raised his head, with a rare indifference in his eyes: "So, can you get out?" ”

Letting go of his hand, Zhang Hu fled with a painful face.

Xu Xiangwan walked to Cheng Wang's side: "I was very handsome just now." ”

Looking at Cheng Wang, who was blushing, Xu Xiangwan smiled and said, "Thank you, my friend." ”

After entering the village, from time to time, some villagers looked at Cheng Wang and the others vigilantly, as if they were worried about something.

Beneath the mist-shrouded ordinary rural landscape, there is a faint sense of weirdness.

The village is not big, and after a while, I saw the sign of the village committee.

It was a very old room, with old wooden doors, decaying roof beams, mottled walls, and rusty desks.

There was a middle-aged man with gray hair at his desk.

The middle-aged man seemed to be busy with work, and he didn't see Cheng Wang and the others.

"Hello?" Cheng Wang tentatively spoke.

The middle-aged man seemed to be taken aback, and suddenly looked up and saw that there were two young people dressed like city people, and couldn't help but wonder: "Who are you?" ”

Xu Xiangwan is very direct: I am a Taoist priest from Qingling Mountain, I want to ask you if there is anything evil recently? ”

Slightly stunned, the middle-aged man seemed a little uneasy and said, "Could it be that there is an accident in the city again?" ”

Cheng Wang's eyes flashed, and he winked at Xu Xiangwan slightly, Xu Xiangwan was stunned for a moment, and then nodded suspiciously.

Recalling the tree that An Ziyan hanged in the illusion, Cheng Wang looked at the middle-aged man with a solemn look: "I want to know if there is a hundred-year-old locust tree planted in the village." ”

The middle-aged man stood up like a cat that had been stepped on by its tail, and said angrily, "What the hell are you here for!?" I have the right not to answer such nonsense questions! ”

Cheng Wang wanted to say something, but was dragged out of the door by Xu Xiangwansheng.

"What are you doing!" Cheng Wang yelled slowly at the natural-looking girl in front of him: "Do you know that news is very important to me?" ”

Xu Xiangwan just looked at him with a smile: "Do you know a lot of things about An Ziyan? ”

Cheng Wang turned his head and said a little angrily: "At least I know what happened to him in Baicun." ”

Xu Xiangwan suddenly burst out laughing.

Cheng Wang looked dazed: "You... What to laugh at? ”

Xu Xiangwan smiled and said curiously: "Do you know what the locust tree looks like?" ”

Cheng Wang's face turned red suddenly, and he said embarrassedly: "I...... Should have seen it in memory. ”

Memories here naturally refer to memories in the illusionary world.

Xu Xiangwan pointed to a big tree not far in front of the gate of the village committee office and said, "You can't see such a big locust tree?" ”

Cheng Wang's first instinct was not embarrassment, but scalp tingling.

The memories of the illusion gradually match the reality in front of them.

Despite the vicissitudes of life. But there are still some things that haven't changed, such as this still burly locust tree.

Xu Xiangwan noticed Cheng Wang's abnormality and asked suspiciously, "What's wrong?" ”

Cheng Wang's voice trembled, he raised his hand and slowly pointed to the locust tree, and squeezed out a paragraph from his mouth with great difficulty:

"An Ziyan was hanged from here."
