Chapter 51: A Ghost Village with No Man
This time, Wu Jiaban detoured a little far, and the original plan to go home within half a month was in vain.
However, in this regard, everyone in the Wu family class was not depressed, but very happy.
After all, it was fortunate that I met the merchant and got the general situation of Weihu Mountain, otherwise if I bumped into it head-on, Wu He might not be able to run away, and most of the other people in the Wu family class would not be able to run.
Of course, although the merchant had merit, Wu He didn't mean to let this guy go.
Let's not talk about how many people this guy killed, let's just say that it is possible, or even very likely, to send a message to Weihu Mountain if he lets go of this thing, and let that group of guys who are suspected of cultivating evil arts come to surround him, and it is impossible for Wu He to let him go.
As for why the people in the Wu family class believed the words of the merchant whose neck was broken by Wu He.
That's naturally because "hearing is false, seeing is believing".
After Wu He and the others walked through the villages near Weihu Mountain, all they saw were empty ghost villages.
Those ghost villages are not to mention human figures, not even a mouse or even a bird or even an insect can be found, as if a silent death passed by here and took all the life here.
Even if there was no bloody feeling of blood and internal organs, the oppressive and suffocating atmosphere still made Wu Jiaban not even dare to stop at all, and he quickly walked through several villages. It wasn't until I reached the range of Mingyue Town, and I came to the outermost layer of Mingyue Town and a village in Qingfeng Town, that it improved......
Stopping in a small village where there were people, Wu Yu, who was sitting next to Wu He, said with a somewhat unsightly expression:
"There are three or four villages, there is no one left, and there is no trace of a fight, so many people are missing, is there no one in the government to investigate?!"
Regarding Wu Yu's complaint, the old man Wu Yu took a puff of dry smoke, chirped his mouth, and then spit out a white line and said:
"Official? Feudal official? Heh~, don't look at those officials too well. There are a few officials who have a conscience. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, what can I do if a few low-level people are missing? Even if people from several villages disappear inexplicably, what can they do, as long as they don't make too much trouble, so that everyone is not good and the officials are too lazy to care about these things......"
"But it's ......"
"What about taxes? With so many fewer people and so many tax collectors, don't you care at all? ”
Hearing that his grandfather did not hesitate to expose the reality of the world, Wu Yu didn't come out for a long time, and for the first time, he came out to help more contact with the simple farmer's family in the past, but he really lacked some understanding of the cruelty of the world.
Compared with Wu Yan, who is much better, unlike Wu Yan, who is more interested in science, stares at the math problems written by Wu He every day, and is more sensitive to accounts and taxes, as an elder brother, he prefers to listen to Wu He tell all kinds of humanistic stories, and even tell them to the children in other villages to listen to Wu Yan, who knows more about these, and obviously sees them more thoroughly, and said:
"Taxes are important, yes, but it's only the taxes themselves that matter."
Wu Yan said this without a head and no brain, and Wu Yu was speechless for a while, and he didn't understand what it meant at all. I can only put a big question mark on my head.
Seeing Wu Yu like this, Wu Yan was also speechless for a while, and then he explained:
"What's so difficult about this, as long as the money, that is, the taxes are in place, the interests in your hands are guaranteed. You can also use money to prevaricate, but it's just that hundreds or thousands of people are missing, so what's there to care about? ”
"Even if the East Window incident happens, is there still a Weihu Mountain on top? It's a big deal, it's just a Liang Zhi, and it's just a bunch of local chickens and dogs......"
The previous ones are all shadows of Wu He's teachings, and the latter ones should be attributed to Xie Gan, Xie Gan's follow-up to the Wu family class all the way naturally couldn't just stare at Xie Gan, and other people naturally had some contact.
And Wu Yan also learned more about the true face of the world that even Wu He did not have here, and it was precisely because of this that he could see the current situation so thoroughly.
Looking at the triumphant Wu Yan in this regard, Wu He was also a little speechless, stretched out his hand and patted the heads of these two guys, and said speechlessly:
"Okay, okay, I know the skills of the two of you Sleeping Dragon and Phoenix Chicks, so you don't need to show it here."
……
Before, those villages didn't have any people, even a bird laugh couldn't be heard, it was really weird, even if this place should be out of range, in the village next to it, the life of the villagers was quite normal, the farming of the farm, the cooking of the cooking.
But it's not safe here.
The ghost knows if the Weihu Mountain side will continue to arrest the villagers of other villages after searching the villages around the mountain.
For this group of guys who practice evil arts, Wu He really doesn't want to face them head-on, after all, thinking about facing a large number of Liang Zhi, Wu He feels a chill from the soles of his feet to the Tianling Gai. That scene was so underworld, Wu He was really unimaginable.
And the old man Wu Yu obviously had similar considerations, so after replenishing some physical strength, everyone was on the road again.
Before leaving, Wu He finally turned around and took a deep look at this small village, so that he wanted to imprint everything here in his mind, and then he followed the footsteps of Wu Jiaban and continued to move forward.
After returning to his hometown this time, no matter what the purpose, Wu He will undoubtedly go to Anyang County from this road, and when the time comes, Wu He will come here alone, and he will not even ask the name of the village when he comes to this place.
It's just that Wu He will have a hunch that when he comes here next time, the fate here should not be much better than the previous villages.
Of course, thinking of this, some people may ask, since there is a hunch, then why not notify the villagers to flee?
"Oh, who believes it......"
Turning around and raising his arm, the luck pulse instantly burst the wings of a hovering bat in the sky, Wu He slowly walked to the side of the falling bat and looked at the bat that was not abnormal except for a broken wing, Wu He trampled it to death with one kick, and then looked up at the sky.
Returning to the normal woods from the extremely secluded environment, if Wu He didn't have the slightest nerves, it would definitely be a lie.
"Isn't it a so-called blood bat controlled by evil magic?"
"Also, even if they need to use human blood and human flesh to practice, they shouldn't play any tracking for these three or five people, with this kung fu, isn't it good to capture a few people from other villages?"
"This kind of psychology has to be changed, otherwise I am afraid that I will be victimized paranoia in the future."
patted his face and slapped the messy thoughts out of his mind, Wu He raised his feet to keep up with the team of the Wu family class and got into the car......
It's just that this time, Wu He's eyes kept scanning the surroundings, and he didn't dare to be as careless as before......
