Chapter 53: Volume II: Chapter 9: Bravely Exploring the Demon Cave and Becoming Crazy (2)
But he said that Shaoqing was tossing and turning this night, first, he was worried about Jingxue's safety, and his heart was like a mess. Second, when the incident happened, that strange atmosphere and feeling......
……
The next day, early in the morning.
It was another sunny morning, the gate of Jiangdu City was already full of traffic, Shaoqing and his party had already gathered on the side of the city gate, but the bright sunshine could not hide the melancholy on Shaoqing's face, Tang Yueyao looked at Shaoqing and wanted to be relieved: "Shaoqing, don't worry, if you go on like this, you didn't wait to find Jingxue." You're going to collapse yourself. Shaoqing smiled, waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about me, I understand what you said." Don't worry, I'm in control. Then he looked at the outskirts of Jiangdu City and said, "It's just that there is a vast sea of people at the moment, but where are we going to find it?" Gu Xichao said at this time: "Now that we suspect that the matter of Miss Murong is related to the recent incident of the continuous disappearance of the girl, it is better to go to Qingxi Village, where the girl disappeared first." "Qingxi Village?" Shaoqing was suspicious, and Gu Xichao continued: "This Qingxi Village is a small village not far from the suburbs of Jiangdu City, its scenery is beautiful, the people are simple, and there is a stream that flows into the river next to the village and is named. But not long ago, the first disappearance of a girl occurred in this village, and people were panicked for a while. I think if we're going to investigate this, we might get some clues here. Shaoqing thought for a moment, and then said: "At the moment, it seems that I have to rely on what Brother Gu said." Please also ask Brother Gu to lead the way. Gu Xichao nodded and said, "Well, without further ado, let's go." Then he took a few people out of the city gate and walked to Qingxi Village on the outskirts of the city.
But it was said that a few people walked all the way, full of endless scenery and beautiful scenery in the south of the Yangtze River, and just in time for a sunny sunny day, the flowers on the side of the road were full of colorful butterflies, and there were bursts of crisp bird chirping on the treetops, so it was not a good scenery. But several people had no intention of appreciating the beautiful scenery, and they all buried their heads and Gu Xichao led their heads and continued to move forward silently.
"Jingxue, are you okay now? You must protect yourself, wait for me to find you, and you will definitely ......" Shaoqing said silently in his heart. But I heard Gu Xi suddenly say in front of me: "It's almost here, you see! Shaoqing looked at the place where Gu Xi pointed his finger, but saw a row of scattered houses looming in the distance in the field of vision of the three of them, and the chimney on the roof was slowly smoking, obviously a village. Is that Cheonggye Village? Tang Yueyao asked from a distance with one hand covering the sun. Yes, although this village is not far from Jiangdu City, it is far away from the official road where travelers and caravans come and go, so there are few outsiders except for the original villagers of the village. "That's right." Tang Yueyao said: "Then let's go quickly." With that, he quickened his pace and walked towards Qingxi Village, followed by Gu Xichao and Shaoqing.
After a while, several people came to the village, but to the surprise of the three of them, there were almost no people in the village, and the only few old people were also full of sorrow, as if they had a lot of sorrow in their hearts. Seeing this, Gu Xichao walked up to an old man and saluted and asked, "Hello uncle, may I ask, this is Qingxi Village?" Why are the people in the village so scarce and so lifeless? The old man looked the three of them up and down, but did not directly answer Gu Xichao's question, but said coldly: "You are outsiders? The three of them looked at each other, and then Gu Xichao said, "Exactly." The old man continued to look at a few people, and finally his eyes stopped on Tang Yueyao's body, and he sighed and said: "Alas, young man, this is indeed Qingxi Village, but I advise you to leave quickly, a few days ago, there were monsters in the village, and young girls were constantly missing, and then even several surrounding villages and Jiangdu City had this situation, and the people in the village were panicked, saying that this village was targeted by monsters, and the young people and people with a little wealth left the village, Now we are the only ones left, and we are still alone in this village, waiting to die. Let's go, I see that your girl is so beautiful, and if you stay in the village for a long time, you will be captured by monsters sooner or later, and it will be too late to regret it by then. As soon as a few people heard this, they all knew in their hearts, and they only heard Tang Yueyao say first: "Don't worry, uncle, the purpose of a few of us here is to solve the disaster of this village and eradicate the demons!" The old man was stunned for a moment, and then said in disbelief: "You...... You're here to get rid of demons? Long Shaoqing stepped forward and said with a smile: "That's right, the old man only needs to provide us with some clues about the evil, and the next few people will definitely get rid of this trouble for the village forever." The old man was stunned for a long time when he heard this, and then said excitedly: "I see, a few young heroes have forgiven the old man for being rude, and the young heroes are here to get rid of the demons, so please come with me to talk to the village chief in detail." Then he led the three of them to the village.
