Chapter 295: Paper Man
Strangely, if you look closely, you can see that the figures of the women in the room are surprisingly consistent, and at a glance, under the reflection of the candle flame, their shadows are all in a sitting posture, and there is no difference in the slightest.
This also made me understand Zhang Mingyu's words instantly.
There is a problem with this village.
"I want to see it." Zhang Mingyu thought for a while and said.
I shook my head.
"We don't have to interfere in this now."
"Although there is a problem in this village, the villagers here don't feel anything because of it, so why should we meddle?"
Hearing me say this, Zhang Mingyu hesitated for a moment, but nodded and said, "Yes." ”
"Then let's take another look."
"Let's go back first." I glanced at the figures in the surrounding rooms and said, "If we really want to be involved in the affairs here, maybe we don't need to do anything on our own initiative, and trouble will come soon." ”
"How?" Zhang Mingyu looked at me in surprise.
I smiled wryly: "Experience! ”
Experience indeed.
Li Bowen gave.
Although he told Liu Shan that I could choose to interfere or not in the things I encountered in Batong Village on this way, he had already said so, which showed that this road would definitely not be so peaceful.
It doesn't seem like anything really happened to the Revenant River, but that's also based on the fact that I didn't want to dig out the true face of the Revenant River, if I really wanted to solve the Revenant River, and wanted to figure out the ancient temple and what Zhang Mingyu said, we wouldn't have left the Revenant River so quickly.
And here...... Although it doesn't seem like anything is happening for the time being.
But when I first arrived, I happened to encounter this village where a sacrifice was being held.
That says a lot.
Zhang Mingyu was still a little confused, but seeing that I didn't mean to say more, he didn't ask any more, and followed me back to the place where I stayed.
When the two of us came back, Liu Shan happened to come from the other side, holding some fruit in his hand, but his face was a little puzzled.
"It's weird."
When Liu Shan saw us, he muttered as he handed us the fruit.
"What's weird?" I asked, confused.
Liu Shan took a bite of the apple, and then said, "I just think the women here are a little strange." ”
"I just thought that there was not much food left, so I thought about finding a few families to buy some."
"I called a few households, and obviously there are people in the family, but they just don't want to take care of me."
Speaking of this, Liu Shan glanced at me and Zhang Mingyu, and then said, "Later, I saw that the door of a house was not closed, so I went in by myself." ”
"And then?" My brow furrowed slightly.
Liu Shan said depressedly: "I went in and saw the hostess of the house, but no matter what I said, she still ignored me, I began to think that the women here were afraid of life, so I put some money, and then took some fruit and was about to leave, but guess what I saw?" ”
Zhang Mingyu and I looked at each other, then shook our heads.
But I also saw the same idea as me in Zhang Mingyu's eyes.
Maybe...... Something is going to happen.
"What?" I asked.
"Paper Man!" Liu Shan said after taking another bite of the apple: "That woman is clearly a paper person. ”
"Are you sure?" My brow furrowed even tighter.
Liu Shan nodded affirmatively and said, "That can still be fake." ”
"I wondered, what are the people in this village doing when they put a paper figure in their house?"
"Isn't there a lady who can help them marry a wife? As for putting a paper figure at home as a woman? ”
I thought for a moment and said, "Maybe you're dazzled." ”
Liu Shan pursed his lips and said, "If you don't believe it, go and see for yourself." ”
"It doesn't matter to us whether it's a paper figure or not, let's rest quickly and get on the road early tomorrow." I said again.
Liu Shan seemed to think that we didn't believe it, waved his hand and went back to his room.
When the door of the room closed, I looked at Zhang Mingyu.
"What do you think?"
Zhang Mingyu shook his head and said, "What Liu Shan said should be true. ”
"But if the wives of the people in this village from Niangziling are all paper people, they shouldn't have found out, unless they are all blinded."
"It's not impossible." I nodded, "But it's none of our business. ”
"Maybe Liu Shan is really dazzled."
Sleepless nights.
Because of what Liu Shan said, I couldn't sleep this night.
It wasn't until the middle of the night that I heard the sound of gongs and drums, so I got out of bed and walked to the window to look out.
Because the people of this Niangzi Village and the residence we arranged are not far from the entrance of the village, you can see the scene of the village entrance at a glance when you stand in front of the window.
The people from Niangzi Village, who had entered Niangzi Ridge before, had now turned into three welcoming teams.
The three men dressed in the groom's official clothes walked in the front, and behind them there were three big red sedan chairs, each carried by four people, and the three teams walked in from outside the village beating gongs and drums, which was very lively.
It wasn't until all three teams had entered the village that everyone stopped.
Then it was an old man who walked to the front, the old man I knew, it was the head of Niangzi Village who arranged a place for us to stay, the village chief faced the three teams, and said loudly: "Worship the red fairy Niangniang!" ”
Hearing the words of the village chief, all the people of the three teams knelt down in the direction of Niangziling, and after kowtowing, the village chief shouted again: "Please have a good wife!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the three men dressed in the groom's official clothes stood up from the ground one after another, and walked towards the sedan chair of their respective teams with anticipation.
After the sedan curtain was lifted, three women wearing red wedding dresses and red hijabs were greeted down.
The village chief also said loudly again: "Get married, the bride and groom worship the red fairy again!" ”
At the same time, the three couples knelt down to Niangziling again according to what the village chief said, and after kowtowing again, the village chief shouted again: "Licheng, enter the village, enter the cave house!" ”
The sound of gongs and drums was heard again.
This time, in addition to the village chief, the three pairs of newcomers were at the forefront.
It wasn't until the three couples entered a room that the three welcoming teams dispersed one after another.
After watching this whole process, I had some doubts in my heart.
Judging from the appearance of the three bridegrooms taking their respective brides out of the palanquin, the three brides did not look like paper figures.
It seems that there is a lot of weirdness in this.
But I didn't think much of it.
Because even if there are weirdness, for now, it has nothing to do with me, and now that the sacrifice is over, we can leave this Niangzi Village as soon as it dawns.
However, sometimes it backfires.
Just like I thought at the beginning.
Coming here has more or less something to do with Li Bowen.
Then I wouldn't have left so easily.
Morning.
There was a sharp knock on the door.
