Chapter 21: It's Dark

"Yes mother-in-law, we ......"

"Ahhh

When the old woman saw Xue Nan's appearance, she fell back in fright, and immediately crawled to the ground and left in a hurry.

Xue Nan's already black face is even darker at the moment.

Apparently seriously traumatized.

Xue Nan turned his head and swept over a few people one by one, and found that Huang Liang looked like a normal person.

"Zhou Hu, you inquire about the situation."

"Yes, Captain."

It's not night yet, so don't be too scared...... Huang Liang was forced to walk in front, and soon saw another lone ...... A middle-aged woman going out to dry her clothes.

Huang Liang stepped forward and shouted through the fence: "This eldest sister, I am from out of town, and I want to find your village here, where is his home?" ”

The middle-aged woman looked at Huang Liang for a moment before she said, "Look for Lao Li, you keep walking, the one with two big stones at the door of the house is it." ”

"Okay, thank you, big sister."

Huang Lianggang wanted to leave, but after discovering the woman's behavior, he asked more.

"Eldest sister, it's going to be dark soon, what are you doing with your clothes out to dry?"

"Is it dark?"

The woman looked up, "Isn't it going to be dawn soon, you ......?"

The woman lowered her head again and found that Huang Liang had already walked out of Xu Yuan, so she shook her head and continued to dry her clothes.

"Captain, this village is strange, why don't we get out first and observe for one night before we act."

After Huang Liang went back, he reported what had just happened.

"Observe for a night? Our mission is only three days in total, and there are only three nights for us to act, Zhou Hu, are you too cautious? ”

Wu Yuanjie of Rotten Keshan frowned.

Fortunately, I didn't say that I would have observed it for five nights, otherwise it would have been exposed, and it seems that I would talk less later...... Huang Liang looked at Xue Nan.

"There's no need to be too cautious, besides, these are ordinary people, the five of us are together, and no one is afraid."

"That is, I can beat ten with a stick." Scholar Xu Qing said something rarely.

Huang Liang saw that they were all on the same front, so he stopped insisting and returned to the back of the team.

Lu Xiaosheng took out a cyan long snake at some point, and said to Huang Liang while eating: "Actually, what you said is right, it's better to be careful when you go out." ”

"But don't be afraid to follow the captain, he is definitely not a casual cultivator, and he has many means."

Huang Liang nodded, but his eyes glanced at the right front.

Xu Qing, a weak scholar, walked to the only woman in the team, Zhao Yue, and whispered something.

Rao is Huang Liang's ear power, and he can only vaguely hear a few words.

"Are you cold...... My Stick Method...... Long Whip"

There are few simple people who can become qi refiners...... Of course, there are exceptions, such as the unruly Wu Yuanjie.

Several people followed the direction and soon found Muramasa's home.

It's just that along the way, it was all quiet, except for the two people I met at the beginning, I didn't see anyone else.

Muramasa's home is located in the middle of the village, with its own yard, a high wall, and two boulders at the door.

Everyone stopped, and naturally looked at Xue Nan.

He said in a deep voice: "Zhou Hu, you go knock on the door, it's best to go in and check the situation inside." ”

"Xu Qing, Lu Xiaosheng, Zhao Yue, you guys look around and see if there is a suitable place for us.

I won't go anywhere later, just stay around here until dark. ”

"Yes, Captain."

And they dispersed.

Huang Liang turned his back to them, and when no one saw them, he quietly put on a pair of cold silk gloves, and then slammed the door lightly.

Who knows if there will be anything weird about this ghost village, so it's better to be careful.

A moment later, footsteps were heard from behind the door, and it was opened by a gray-haired woman.

"You are?"

Huang Liang said with a smile: "Hello sister-in-law, I am from out of town, passing by your place, and I have come to visit one or two people at home in the village." ”

"From out of town? Lao Li hasn't come back yet, what are you going to do this night? ”

It's day as night again...... Maybe they're ghosts in the first place, so they feel like this?

"Qianqian?"

β€œβ€¦β€¦β€

Damn, how can this little world block all the fox bottles.

After coming in, Huang Liang has been contacting Tu Shan Qianqian, but there has been no response.

"Anything else? I'll go back to sleep if it's okay......"

"Hey, wait, wait, where has Muramasa gone if he hasn't come back yet? It's all big night. ”

Huang Liang said nonsense as much as he could.

"I don't know, what's the matter with you!"

The woman's face changed, and she closed the door with a "bang".

Huang Liang had no choice but to return.

"Captain, the man said that the village was not at home and went out. And she also said that the day is night......"

Xue Nan nodded, "Wait for a few of them to come back together." ”

After waiting for about a cup of tea, the other three also came back one after another.

"Captain, we went to a farmer and said they were willing to accept us."

"But they also asked us why we came at night."

Saying that, Lu Xiaosheng also looked up at the sky, the sun was slanting westward, and the remnant sun dragged the shadows of several people to the ground, which had nothing to do with the night.

Xue Nandao: "Now it is certain that there are strange things in this village, so now I will give you a choice, either go to the farmhouse that Xu Qing and they are looking for."

Or, as Zhou Hu said, go to the outside of the village and wait first. ”

"I'm going to the farmhouse and going out to do something."

Wu Yuanjie said immediately.

"I'm going to the farmhouse too."

Xu Qing rubbed his hands and said shyly: "Sister Zhao also accompany me to the farmhouse, the bed is quite warm." ”

Zhao Yue nodded.

"I want to go outside the village with Brother Zhou."

Snake eater Lu Xiaosheng said.

Xue Nan's gaze swept over them and said, "Since that's the case, let's go to the farmhouse." ”

"Before you figure out the matter, you can't divide the army, you can only obey the majority of the minority, I hope you two can understand."

Huang Liang and Lu Xiaosheng glanced at each other, then nodded and followed the team.

On the road.

Huang Liang saw a small snake with the thickness of his fingers quietly burrowing out of Lu Xiaosheng's cloth bag and crawling into the grass on the side of the road.

When they got to the ground, the owner of the house was an old woman on crutches.

Huang Liang and the others didn't bother, just waited silently in the hall for dark.

After the old woman arranged them, she went back to the room to rest, her room was on the left side of the room, so Huang Liang chose the rightmost corner and stood against the wall.

For a while, only the sound of everyone's breathing remained in the room, which was a little dull.

As the sun fades away from the mountains.

Xue Nan's voice also sounded at the right time.

"If something happens later, I hope you will follow orders, and if it is due to someone's abnormal mistakes, there will be no problems.

Then that person will die. The ugly words are ahead, can you understand? ”

Xue Nan's gaze focused on Wu Yuanjie and stopped for a moment.

Everyone nodded one after another, not doubting whether Xue Nan had this strength.

And not long after Xue Nan finished speaking.

It's dark.

It was as if someone was holding a black curtain and covering the sky, and it got dark very quickly.

"Crunchβ€”"

The old woman's door opened.

"It's finally dawn," she said. ”
