The gray-clothed old man turned his head to look at Li Qiufeng, and a smile appeared on his originally frightened face.

Li Qiufeng patted his belly and said with a smile: "The Five Organs Temple has been hungry for a day and a night, and it is not surprising that it is called Qu now." ”

The two looked at each other and laughed at the same time. Fang Li Qiufeng also drew a knife at the old man, and at this time, under a smile, the mustard between the two dissipated a lot. Li Qiufeng said: "As long as you take me down the mountain, I promise that I won't hurt your life." ”

The old man in gray sighed: "Actually, the old lady is good to you, and I don't want to hurt you when I look at his appearance." It's just that this Fengmen Village has always only allowed people to enter but not leave when they come. The old lady treats you as a guest, which means that he has no intention of hurting you. Just find out that you are not an enemy of the Closed Gate Village, and he will let you go. Why should you be in a hurry and forcibly break in? If you offend the old lady, I am afraid that it will be very disadvantageous to you. ”

Li Qiufeng sneered and said, "Trapping me in the stone house, is that the old guy's hospitality?"

The gray-clothed old man said with a smile: "There have been a lot of people from outside living in that stone house, and some of them are officials from the capital. The road in this closed gate village is tortuous and winding, and the houses are real and fake, and it is easy to get lost if you are a living person who enters the village for the first time. The stone house is surrounded by cliffs on three sides, and it is a very safe place for people to live there, so it is easy not to wander around. The old lady asked the fourth master to take you there to live temporarily, but it was also a good intention. If he really wants to harm you, he just doesn't allow us to send food and water, and within a few days, the uncle will die of thirst in the stone house. ”

Li Qiufeng's heart was full of suspicions, and he said: "The officials from the capital, what are the officials from the capital doing here?"

The old man in gray shook his head: "The villain is just a cook, how can these things be known to the villain? I heard that the old lady lived in the capital for a few years when he was young, so I think it was a friend he made at that time." Our old lady is a great person, although he has lived in this deep mountain for many years, there is nothing he does not know about the major events in the world. Even if Zhuge Liang, Xu Maogong, and Liu Bowen are reborn, they don't have the skills of him. ”

Li Qiufeng secretly thought in his heart, although this old guy surnamed Nie is scheming, but looking at his appearance, he doesn't know martial arts, and he is old, how can he compare with Zhuge Liang and others? Thinking that this cook has the benefits of the old guy, so he desperately praises him. At this time, he suddenly remembered one more thing, so he immediately asked: "You said that the roads and houses in Fengmen Village are strange, but after I escaped from the stone house, I didn't have much effort to reach the entrance of the village, what is the matter?"

The old man in gray smiled: "That's your luck." A few months ago, a lot of people suddenly came to the village. I heard that these people are all the children of the Nie family, the Lu family, the Zhao family, and the Du family. Many of these people returned to Fengmen Village for the first time, and the fourth master ordered all the organs in the village to be scattered, so as not to let these people who returned to the village for the first time touch the organs by mistake. Don't look at the calm situation in the closed door village right now, if the mechanism is not removed, even if the villain is not afraid to walk around. There are pits, and there are hidden arrows in others. And if you accidentally walk into those dark houses, you will encounter ghosts hitting the wall, going around in one place, if the fourth master does not let the trapped person out, I am afraid that he will be exhausted and starved to death inside, and he will not be able to get out. After those people left, the fourth master didn't let people restore the mechanism. Otherwise, if you want to escape all the way from the stone house to the entrance of the village, I am afraid that it will be more difficult than climbing to the sky. ”

Li Qiufeng had seen the power of the five elements of Qimen, and he did not doubt the words of this old man. He pondered for a moment before he spoke: "Since I arrived here last night, except for a few people from the Nie family, why is there no one in the village?"

The old man in gray said: "It was a few months ago, and more than a thousand people came from outside the mountain. They discussed the matter in the Thousand Yin Cave for several days, and then suddenly disappeared. Uncle didn't know, those days had exhausted me and Lao Zhang. Although these people all brought dry food, the fourth master prepared steamed buns, beef and mutton jerky and other foods in advance. But the uncle thought about it, there were more than a thousand mouths in the village out of thin air, and the prepared things were eaten clean in less than three days. The old lady had no choice, so she had to ask me and Lao Zhang to help cook and cook, alas, pity our two old bones, almost tired and scattered. But on the fourth night, they were all gone. And along with the four or five hundred young people in Fengmen Village, they don't know where they went. At present, there are only seventy or eighty people left in the whole village, and they are all old people, women who have not left the cabinet, and children. These people stay at home all day, and you don't see anyone in the village, but it's not surprising. ”

When the gray-clothed old man said this, he paused slightly, looked up and looked forward, and it was not far from the stone wall. He continued: "Fengmen Village is built here, with its back against a cliff, and there are thousands of abysses on the left and right sides, and outsiders cannot enter Fengmen Village from these three sides. And the stone wall in front of it cuts off the road leading from Fengmen Village to the outside of the mountain. To get in and out of the village, you have to pass through this cave in the stone wall. There are guards at both ends of the cave, and there are many mechanisms in the cave, so if outsiders want to break in, there is only one way to die. ”

Li Qiufeng nodded and said with a smile: "That's why I didn't break in, please take me away." ”

The old man in gray sighed and said, "I just don't know if those boys will give me face with my old face." ”

Li Qiufeng said: "You are the old guy's cronies, if they dare to embarrass you, unless they don't want to mix in this village." ”

Between the two of them talking, they were no more than thirty or forty feet away from the stone wall. When farther away, the stone wall looks like a wall, towering between heaven and earth. When the two of them got closer, they only felt that the stone wall seemed to cover most of the sky. And as he walked forward, he felt that the stone wall seemed to be falling towards the two of them, and an invisible pressure was approaching. Li Qiufeng held the bamboo basket in his left hand and the handle of the knife in his right hand, feeling extremely nervous.

I just saw that the stone wall was thirty or forty zhang away, but the road under my feet was twists and turns, and sometimes I was walking forward, but I felt that I was getting farther and farther away from the stone wall. Fortunately, although the old man in gray did not walk fast, he did not hesitate in the face of the fork in the road, and walked left and right with a strong autumn wind. Li Qiufeng only knew at this time that the road in Fengmen Village was indeed as the old man surnamed Nie said, and it was set up according to the five elements of Qimen, and it was only when he walked around like this. Fortunately, this gray-clothed old man has lived in Fengmen Village for a long time and is very familiar with the road, so he will not be trapped in the village.

Thinking of this, Li Qiufeng secretly lucked in his heart. Just thinking about it, my heart is full of joy, and I secretly think about how there is such a clever thing in the world. I was worried that I couldn't leave Fengmen Village, but this cook appeared in front of me. Extrapolating forward, I was originally trapped in a stone house, when there was no way to heaven and no way to enter the earth. The old guy sent two cooks who didn't know martial arts to bring him food, so that he could escape. Later, I originally planned to catch that old guy and ask what secrets Fengmen Village had, but I heard the Nie family secretly discuss things, and solved most of the mysteries in my heart. If it's really God's favor, then your luck is too good, right?

Li Qiufeng frowned and pondered, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that what happened overnight in this day and night was too unreasonable. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the gray-clothed old man. I saw the old man in gray walking forward with a wooden cane without squinting. Although Li Qiufeng was suspicious, he knew that although this cook didn't know martial arts, if everything was done by him deliberately deceiving himself, then even if he put the knife on his neck, this person would never give in. Maybe I'm thinking too much. However, if the old guy surnamed Nie is suspicious and wants to lure himself into being fooled, he is afraid that he has fallen into the trap now.

But Li Qiufeng thought about it, judging from the things discussed by the Nie family, it really had nothing to do with him. And he has never faced the old man surnamed Nie, as well as Nie Dingnan, Nie Lao Wu and others. Ji Dingzhong, Han Qusi, Hu Kun, Huang Chong and others could not know their identities. There was no need for the old man surnamed Nie to be suspicious, and deliberately lowered himself down the mountain. Maybe he was really lucky, because the children of the Nie, Lu, Zhao, and Du families were all sent down the mountain to deal with the Xu family and the Japanese Kou, which made it easy for him to get out.

He was thinking about it when he heard the old man in gray whisper: "Be careful, there is the entrance to the cave ahead." If you want to survive, don't show your flaws. Just listen to me for a while, and don't talk too much on the side. ”
