"What's the matter?" the old woman asked puzzled, and Hanyan, who was about to walk to her side, hurriedly helped her to the stool on the side, and said, "Sister Hanyan, I have something to sit down and talk slowly." ”

"When my master and I came to your village, Sister Zhuoma, you once said that your village is a quiet and peaceful paradise with no quarrel with the world. And just now I learned from Tashan Pass that there are demons and ghosts in your village right now, I wonder if there is really such a thing?"

"That's true, Sister Hanyan, it's better that you don't know about this, if you really want to know, I can tell you. But you need to promise me that after you know this, you will not meddle in the affairs of our village, so as not to fall into it. The old woman thought about it, looked at Hanyan, and said in a very serious tone.

After listening to this, Hanyan thought about it, and immediately responded silently. Then, they silently listened to Zhuoma talk about what happened in their village.

"It all started eight years ago, when five people came to our village, and when they came to us, they at first said that they had fled here and wanted to settle down with us. Later, the people in our village got together and discussed it, and finally agreed to the request of the five people. ”

"After the five people stayed, for a short period of time, nothing unusual happened in the village, but after half a month, we found that all our people in the village were poisoned. And the poison in our bodies was thrown by the five outsiders, who sprinkled the poison powder in the four edible wells in the village, so that all of us, the old and the young, were spared. ”

"After we were poisoned, the poison would attack every half month, and if there was no antidote, we would die of poisoning, but fortunately, those five people would send us an antidote every half month. In this way, our village was also controlled by them. ”

"After the five men took control of our stockade, they lived in a cave at the foot of the mountain. One of them has not gone out since he moved in, and of the other four, except for one woman, the remaining three are doing mischief in our stockade. But even though they are doing something wrong, they will not harm our lives. ”

"How do you say this?" Seeing that the old woman stopped in the middle of her words, Li Ge couldn't help but ask curiously.

"This is nothing more than a matter of men and women, as soon as the three people of the village come out of the cave, they will look for women in the village for them to have fun, and in these eight years, most of the women in our village have been harmed by them, including my poor daughter-in-law Nalan. There are also people in our village who are not afraid of death, and they organized together to kill the three people, but the three people are so powerful that even if a dozen or so men shoot together, they can't fight one of them, but they are still beaten by them, so they are not desolate. When the old woman said this, she lowered her head with a bitter face.

"I didn't think there would be such a thing. Hearing this, Li Ge sighed in his heart, and then looked at Tashan and Nalan who were sitting on the side. I saw that both of them were looking helplessly at a certain place in the hall, with crystal tears in their eyes.

"Sister Zhuoma, did they come to your village just to harm the women in your village?" stretched out his hand and gently patted the old woman's back, Hanyan felt that the things in the village must be more than this, so he asked softly.

"That's not the case. The old woman lifted up, wiped the tears from her face, looked at her son and daughter-in-law, and was silent for a moment before saying, "Actually, I should have two grandchildren, but they disappeared seven years ago." ”

"Huh, how do you say that?" Li Ge asked puzzled.

"When those people came to our village, they not only wantonly harmed the women in our village, but every other month, a pair of children under the age of eight disappeared from our village. At this point, the old woman couldn't cry anymore.

"When such a thing happens, won't you go out and ask for help, just let those people do anything here?" asked Li Ge in a very regretful tone.

"The people in our village have never dealt with the outside world, and each of us has been poisoned, so we can only live like this, and live one day at a time. Tashan, who had been silent for a long time, sighed and said in an extremely bitter tone.

"Heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are used as dogs. Since what happened to you in the village today has been encountered by me, then I will not stand idly by. Li Ge said without hesitation, and then walked out of the house with his hands in his hands.

"Senior Brother Li, where are you going?" Seeing Li Ge's actions, Hanyan hurriedly got up and chased after him. When he walked to his side, he said, "We are naturally in charge of this matter, but we can't do it blindly, everyone in this village is full of strange poison, and everything needs to be considered before we can act." ”

Hearing the smoked words, Li Ge nodded silently, and then said ashamedly, "It's me who is too impulsive." ”

"Sister Hanyan, Little Brother Li, don't meddle in the affairs of our village, the five people who came to our village are by no means ordinary people, you better go to rest early and leave our village tomorrow morning." While Li Ge was talking to Hanyan, Dolma also got up and chased after him.

After listening to this, Hanyan glanced at Li Ge, and then did not say much, but went to the room arranged for them by the latter under the leadership of Zhuoma.

After returning to the room, Li Ge sat quietly in the room for about two hours, and when the moon was empty outside the room, he got up and gently opened the door, came to the smoking door, and tapped the door gently.

After returning to the room, Hanyan did not rest, and when she heard a knock on the door, she quickly got up and opened the door, and welcomed Li Ge into the house, and then the two quietly discussed.

After some deliberation, Li Ge finally nodded, got up and left the smoking room, and walked alone towards the stockade. Hanyan stood at the door, looking at the background of Li Ge's departure, and after a long time, he returned to the room and closed the door.

Walking alone in the lonely village, from time to time, Li Ge's ears would hear the snoring of people who had fallen asleep in the houses he passed. In this way, after walking in the village for a while, when he came to the house of a family in the village, he saw that the door of the house was open, and the light was still on in the house, and the sound of the two people talking was heard at the same time. Seeing this scene, Li Ge couldn't help but stop and listened carefully to the conversation coming from the house.

"Second master, please let my daughter-in-law go, I'll kneel down for you. ”

"Let go of your daughter-in-law? It's rare that the second master is here today, you don't let your daughter-in-law serve me well, and you still say such things, I think you don't want to live anymore, hurry up and give me a retreat, don't spoil the second master, my Yaxing." ”
