The sky is not yet fully bright, and the breeze is gentle in the quiet night, and the willows on the bank embankment flutter gently, swinging a circle of lines.

The location of the Wise House is excellent, and it happens that half of the stream pond is gathered in the courtyard, and the water of the brook pond is brought in from the river outside, and many carp are raised.

It had been several hours since Luohua came back from Lian Jing's place, and he had been sitting quietly on the edge of the stream.

She understood what Lian Jing meant, cooperation is okay, there must be a guarantor, and this guarantor, no one is more suitable than Lian Chongrui.

In the stream, a red carp, several times the size of the carp next to her, suddenly jumped out of the water and landed on the stone platform in front of her, and the tail of the fish snapped.

Luohua was stunned, but quickly reacted, picked up the dehydrated red carp, and tentatively pulled out a thread from the red carp's mouth, and at the other end of the thread, a rolled short slip was wrapped.

Putting the red carp back into the water, Luohua opened the short stick.

"Yunqinglong Mountain, nine days. ”

Her pupils dilated, and the tiredness of the coming day was swept away, and in just a few words, it contained her expectations.

Since it involves the Nine Heavens Diagram, then she has to go there.

Ah Zhong walked into the village, looked at the village with an overly quiet atmosphere, and frowned.

This is a village of more than 4,000 miners, and it is usually inhabited not only by miners, but also by their families, with a population of 10,000.

Ah Zhong has been here a few times, and each time it is lively, but this is the first time he has encountered such an eerie tranquility.

There was no such thing as groaning all over the village as imagined, but there was not a single living creature in sight, and only a little blood was left of the livestock that had been locked up in the yard.

Ah Zhong walked to the nearest house and knocked on the door, but no one answered.

When I opened the door, the room was empty, the cabinet where the grain was stored had been opened, and the ground was littered with unhulled grain.

Unable to find more clues, Ah Zhong can only go to the next one.

But when he finished checking the periphery, he didn't find half a figure, and all the rooms were in the same situation as the first family, and the layout had not changed, except that everything that could be eaten had disappeared.

Ah Zhong secretly sighed that it was really strange.

Could it be that some thieves have robbed all the grain? But in recent years, the weather has been good, and the people have not been affected.

He could only walk patiently inside, the empty alley, with large and small houses on both sides, the bustle of the past was dead silence at this time.

Suddenly, Ah Zhong saw a torn bloody rag and was about to bend down to pick it up, but he turned around suddenly.

Just now, he saw a figure out of the corner of his eye.

His brows furrowed, the appearance of a figure at this time was more panicked than the previous silence, but he was a little relieved to think that this might be the crowd taking refuge.

Following the diagonal line in the corner of his eye, he walked to the door of a house, because Longshan is surrounded by water, so the house here will be raised one floor to prevent moisture.

He had been focusing on the room, ignoring the elevated and vacant gap.

Ah Zhong lowered his head and looked through the gap.

One was shirtless, hiding under the roof, his hair disheveled, and some dull black stains.

"Wake up. Brother, wake up. ”

Ah Zhong knocked on the plank, and the vibration made the man open his eyes, and he hurriedly asked.

"What's going on here?"

Ah Zhong was secretly pleasantly surprised, as long as someone was alive, then the truth was not far from him.

"He......"

Who knows, the man can only make a similar sound, and cannot effectively say a word.

Ah Zhong was helpless, and decided to rescue the person first, and when he was stretching out his hand to hold the person, the man struggled fiercely, using both hands and feet.

However, the man's strength is very small, and Ah Zhong has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, so he only easily dragged it, and the entire upper body of the man came out of the room.

Ah Zhong just breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to ask something.

The man's eyes widened suddenly, his hands clawed, his mouth foaming, and his limbs twitched.

Ah Zhong panicked, remembering this man's previous struggle, and hurriedly stuffed him back under the roof, and it took a long time for this person's breath to finally collect some of it.

Ah Zhong probed his snort and confirmed that he was still alive, and then he was relieved.

Seeing that the man couldn't ask for any valid information, he planned to go inside to see if there were any other surviving miners.

The layout of the whole village is a pentagonal shape, with the entrance of the village as the starting point, the avenue connecting the middle can lead directly to the entrance of the mine, and the remaining two sides are diagonal, with a large square in the middle, contrasting with each other.

Ah Zhong had a hunch that there must be someone near the mine.

He picked up the pace.

Constantly searching every room, especially the dark places where the sunlight can't find it, finally let him find a group of people again.

That's right, a group.

He saw a group of people stacked on top of each other in the granary of the village, which was specially used to store grain, in the gap between the ground separated by wooden planks.

All of them were yellow-skinned and thin, regardless of men, women, and children, all of them were paralyzed, and there was no half of light in their eyes, no different from the person hiding under the board.

Ah Zhong also saw a familiar face among these people, who was one of the people in the team sent to Longshan to inquire about the situation some time ago.

Ah Zhong recognized him, his name was Ah Da, he had a muscular body, and his strength was the most prominent, but at this time, his clothes were in tatters, and he could vaguely see only skin and bones in his ribs, and his cheeks were sunken, as if he hadn't eaten for decades.

But the corners of Ah Da's mouth were a little torn, and there was still a little dry grass sticking, combined with what he saw all the way, Ah Zhong looked at the granary.

The granary was built to prevent disasters in the year, and even the family even issued a death order, and not a grain of the granary should be missing, and not a grain should be used privately.

But at this time, the door of the granary was greatly opened, and the ground was full of scratch marks, and there was still a grain of rice.

It seems that they have all been eaten by this group of people!

What kind of epidemic is this? Ah Zhong took two steps back, and for the first time felt panicked, a disease that people only know how to eat, so can this disease be cured?

He rushed to Ah Da and shook vigorously, and Ah Da's eyes finally cleared up.

"Childe...... Come ......"

Seeing that Ah Da could still speak, Ah Zhong hurriedly asked him what had happened.

Ah Da shook his head, and with two sighs, he exerted all his strength, and finally put his hand on Ah Zhong's shoulder.

After doing this, Ah Da's eyes gradually dimmed, and finally closed tightly.

Ah Zhong looked down, Ah Da's hand was on his shoulder, and his index finger pointed beyond Longshan.

As soon as his heart moved, and when he turned his head again, he found a terrifying side.

There were two or three hundred people here, men, women and children, but they did the same thing at this moment.

They all raised their fingers and pointed out of Longshan.

Ah Zhong's eyes widened, and he seemed to be back in the sealed mine, with only the corpse of his father who committed suicide by his side, and only the air that was constantly being consumed.

and the fear of being squeezed.

He understood what these people meant.

Hurry up and run.

He didn't think about it, just turned around and fled.

Lian Chongrui is not very familiar with the Longshan mine, and he brought Ah Zhong because he is an old acquaintance who went to Longshan and can lead the way.

But he didn't expect the accident to come very quickly, and Ah Zhong's stuffy gourd actually stunned him directly.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, he came here.

Seeing that the mining village was not far away, Lian Chongrui packed his luggage and prepared to enter the village.

A hand suddenly landed on his shoulder and stopped him.
