Chapter 28: Everybody is afraid of something
"This is Sanshan Village!" Fu You spoke.
Yan Wo looked at the front shrouded in thick fog and frowned: "It's all covered in fog here, how do you know?" ”
Fu You pointed in the direction of a towering ancient tree, "There is a stone tablet there, and it says so. ”
Well? Yan Wo looked in the direction of his finger, and sure enough, he saw a half-meter-high stone tablet there, with the words "Sanshan Village" carved on it.
Strangely, the stele is inward, it is a white expanse, and you can't even see the road on the ground, but outside the stele, everything is normal.
"It's not a good thing to look at this thick fog, my uncle and aunt may be trapped in the village and can't get out, I don't know how recently, I always encounter this kind of thing." Yan Wo frowned.
Fu You glanced at Yan Wo with a somewhat complicated expression, "If I say that the recent weirdness is all because of me, and your aunt and uncle are also in danger because of me, do you regret saving me?" ”
"I do things in a bad way, I always do what I do, and I never regret it!"
"Besides, you are my appointed husband, I have always been generous to my own people, don't worry, I will rescue my uncle and aunt." Yan Wo continued.
Billowing fog in the background.
In such a strange environment, the little girl raised her head, her carved face was full of sneer, and her clear eyes were imprinted with his shadow, as if she had become her whole world.
This moment.
Fu You's dead heart suddenly rippled.
Maybe. He should try to believe this little girl......
Not only did she save herself, but she trusted herself.
What he devoured in the Bronze Palace last time restored his ability by 20%, and if she needed help, she would do it herself.
"I almost lost you last time I was in the wasteland," she handed Fu You the chain of the little black dog, "Take the little black dog, it can not only protect you, if you get lost, it can also lead you to me." ”
"You're not worried about it running away?"
"It doesn't dare, at least not until it breaks free."
"It's better for you to lead, I'll follow you closely and won't get lost."
"No, I can't. You hold it, just in case. ”
Yan Wo refused, and walked towards the dense fog as he spoke, and Fu You hurriedly followed behind her.
As soon as she entered the mist, Yanwo's spiritual pupils automatically operated, and Grandma Hui floated in front of her to show her the way, and she would not go to the pit.
After about ten minutes, Yan Wo finally saw the houses and buildings faintly in the thick fog.
"Fu You?"
"Hmm. Don't worry, I'm not lost. ”
The young man's cold voice sounded behind him, and if Yan Wo turned around, he would find that Fu You's eyes were filled with a faint golden light, scanning the village.
"Strange, why is the village so quiet?" Yan Wo opened his mouth suspiciously.
"I heard my grandmother say that the population of Sanshan Village is larger than the population of our village, where did so many people go? Was he killed, or was he hiding? ”
Fu You said: "It should be hiding." We have now entered the village, just find a house and knock on the door to ask, we must first know why there is an abnormality in Sanshan Village, which is obscured by dense fog, and only by knowing the reason can we better solve the source. ”
"Tsk!"
Yan Wo suddenly smashed his mouth and hooked the shoulder bag on his shoulder: "I kind of understand, you will carry it when I get dressed." You really don't think of me as a three-year-old, and your IQ tells me that you don't look like a seven- or eight-year-old at all. ”
Fu You slowly curled his lips behind her.
"Aren't you worried that I'm an adult in the skin of a child and a soul in my body?"
Yan Wo pouted disdainfully.
What's wrong with adults, is there a horror in her two lives?
"Go this way." Yan Wo chose the nearest house and walked that way.
The two did not speak again, and soon walked to the house.
It was a small courtyard, surrounded by mud walls, and the walls were filled with many sharp stones, and outside the corner there were two flower beds, which were filled with all kinds of medicinal residues, and exuded a bitter smell.
The two stood in front of the black wooden door, and Yan Wo suddenly frowned.
"Look, why are there so many scratches on this gate?!"
"One, two...... Three long and two short, like the claws of a beast. After Fu You stepped forward to look at it, he groaned.
"Could it be that there is a beast in the village?" Yan Wo is now a little worried about her aunt and uncle.
If it's a ghost or something, she has several curses on her body, and there are ways to fight it, but if it's a beast, her small body is really a head.
Yan Wo knocked on the door.
In front of the empty courtyard, the knock on the door was extremely clear, and the clarity became more and more eerie.
But after a few knocks, there was no movement in the yard.
"Nobody's there?" Yan Wo muttered, and then reached out and pushed the door.
Motionless.
The wooden doors of the village were made of two planks, locked with a lock on the outside and a deadbolt on the inside, but when she pushed it, she found that the threshold of the gate was so tightly closed that it seemed as if something was blocking the doorway, and there was no shaking at all.
"Grandma Hui, you go in and have a look." Yan Wo spoke.
Grandma Hui, who was floating on one side, walked through the gate and entered the yard.
Yan Wo counted silently in her heart, but in a few seconds, Grandma Hui came out.
"There were people inside, a middle-aged man hiding under the cupboard in his room, a child hiding in a tank without water, his clothes covered in blood, and an old lady about my age hiding in the haystack in the kitchen, and the yard was a mess, with blood stains and torn clothes......"
Fu You and Yan Wo glanced at each other.
Both of them were confused.
Don't understand what's going on?
"There are blood stains and torn clothes, and there is only an old lady, a child, and a middle-aged man inside, is it that there is a dead hostess in this family, that is, the child's mother, they dare not come out when they hear the knock on the door, is it because someone knocked on the door before and killed the hostess?"
Yan Wo guessed in his heart.
Then he glanced at the mud-filled fence next to him, "Let's go to the next one." ”
The next one is next door, not counting, a few steps away.
It was wider than the courtyard just now, and there was no wall outside at all, so Yan Wo and Fu You led Xiao Hei directly into the courtyard.
There was a well in the yard, and the bamboo shelves on the side were empty, and the clothes that were drying fell to the ground, and there were sweet potatoes in the yard that had fallen to the ground, and there was a mess everywhere, and all kinds of farm tools were thrown to the ground at the door.
There was a waist-high pigsty on the left, and Fu You turned around and came back.
"The chickens and ducks inside are gone, there are chicken feathers and duck feathers everywhere, and blood is splattered everywhere, like a slaughterhouse."
At this time, Grandma Hui also came out of the room.
"There was only a five- or six-year-old child inside, so he hid under the bed, covered his mouth and fell asleep, as if something big had happened, and his eyes were swollen."
Yan Wo heard that there was only one child, and the hand that wanted to knock on the door was lowered again.
She was already feeling a little anxious.
Want to find out what happened in Sanshan Village?
Where did my uncle and aunt go?
Why are the villagers hiding in their homes and looking so scared?
Everyone seems to be scared of something?
Why did the old man of the ox cart who brought back the news to his uncle and aunt say that his aunt and father dared to appear outside? Aren't they afraid?
"If every family closes the door like this and doesn't want to open it, then there is a great danger outside." Fu Youdao.
Yan Wo took a sharp breath and looked at the little black dog on the ground who looked around vigilantly: "I know you are special, and you may have a much more sensitive sense of smell than ordinary dogs." Tell me a little: my aunt and uncle are not far from here, if you are far away, you will call once, if you are not far away, you will call twice. ”
The little black dog barked suddenly.
Yan Wo looked around at this courtyard with no walls and only one child left.
"I'm not leaving. We're just waiting, waiting and seeing...... What exactly are they afraid of? ”
