Although the trees in their area are not as dense as outside, they are still very dense, so the light is not good. It is dinner time outside, but they have already gone to bed and are getting ready to sleep.
The three of them sneaked in separately, but these people didn't say anything at all, but they listened to it several times.
Shen Zhoujin then turned around and looked around. He found a deer, took a handful of grass from the space, and easily led it over.
Some barriers were built around these people, and many bells were hung. However, in a popular place, wild animals would not come easily, so it was obvious that it had not been damaged for a long time.
Shen Zhoujin found a tree, and the deer jumped in very lightly. Shen Zhoujin gathered the grass and hid. The deer turned left and right, but accidentally stepped on something and made a crash.
Suddenly, there were sounds from several nearby rooms.
Soon, more than one person rushed out. Their movements were very agile, and they looked like they knew martial arts.
Then, someone discovered the deer, pounced on it, and caught it neatly. Someone nearby turned around and went back to find a rope and tied up its legs. Others who came a little later went to patrol around while arranging their clothes.
Apart from anything else, just by looking at this coordination, you can tell that they are not ordinary people, and looking at these people, they are all middle-aged men in their twenties and thirties. This is not like the posture of "Peach Blossom Spring".
Shen Zhoujin went out directly to fetch Cu Liancheng in, and then asked him and Lu Zhiji to stay here for one more day to find out what they were doing.
By the way, I left two pills for them for emergency use when they ran out of food.
Lu Zhiji didn't dare to say anything, he just gestured wildly at her, his eyebrows almost flying.
Shen Zhoujin glanced twice and knew what he was going to say. He held back his laughter and grabbed Huo Lingjue's hand and went out.
Huo Lingjue asked her: "What did he want to say?"
Shen Zhoujin smiled and said: "I was kidnapped by a kidnapper every year before. I knew him at that time. I asked people to take control of the kidnapper village directly. But Lu Zhiji said that if it were him, he would pretend to be trapped, and then I entered the tiger's den and slowly explored it. I criticized him for a long time, and he probably told me this."
While smiling, he added: "But the situation is different! We can't attack by force right now. Let's check their background and decide our approach."
She turned around and asked, "I want to go down and take a look. Can I send you out first?"
Huo Lingjue said: "Together."
Shen Zhoujin didn't persuade him, so she stuck on the edge of the dense forest and fell down. Although she could see at night, it was definitely not as good as during the day. She only walked around once, and then went out to wait for the next day. When it got daylight, I came in and took a look again.
On this mountain, there is a relatively clear boundary between the dense forest side and the ordinary mountain.
It is already October, and the weather is already very cold, but the south of the Yangtze River is no better than the north, and there are still many flowers and plants in the forest.
There is a unique kind of small white flower that she has never seen outside and she doesn't know much about it. It's like a ghost orchid. White flowers are picked out from the thin branches. The petals are clear, narrow at the top and wide at the bottom, curling like light smoke. Lined with thick vines and long grass, it feels like a fairy tale world.
Shen Zhoujin stepped on her thigh-high boots and walked slowly through the long grass.
After walking out for about a month, she felt something. She bent down and dug up the long grass to take a look. Then she put on her gloves and picked out a small flower from underneath. It was obviously growing under the long grass, but it actually bloomed well. , the petals spread out, and the fragrance is fragrant.
Shen Zhoujin took a slight sniff, quickly threw the flowers away, quickly took out a simple gas mask, thought about it and threw it back, took out an ordinary mask, lined it with a layer of alcohol cotton, and then the two of them wore it. one.
Sure enough, I walked all the way in and walked for five or six miles, but I didn't see any ghost girl or "White Fairy".
Shen Zhoujin walked slowly, pulling at the grass as he went, and found a lot of these flowers under the grass. He found a large glass bottle and put it in. Then he jumped onto the tree, took off his boots, and signaled to Huo Lingjue. After a while, the two of them turned around and walked back, skimming along the long grass at a much faster speed.
After leaving that area, Shen Zhoujin said: "It's this kind of flower. The fragrance of this kind of flower can make people hallucinate. And the little white flowers before were all over the ground, there were none outside, and they were very beautiful, so they made an impression." Profound. So after the hallucination occurs, the 'background' will be blurred, and you will only remember the curling posture of the little white flower, which indeed looks like a female ghost in white... As for the ghosts laughing and screaming, they should all be caused by hallucinations. of."
The tips of Huo Lingjue's ears turned red, "Stop talking."
Shen Zhoujin thought it was quite cute, and it was a pity that she was not there when he came, otherwise it would have been interesting to see him being entangled by a "female ghost".
She smiled and said: "I guess everyone will have similar hallucinations, it's not shameful."
Huo Lingjue snorted, turned away and said, "Should I dispatch the officers and soldiers?"
Shen Zhoujin nodded: "Go ahead, I'll go in and pick them out."
The two of them acted separately, but Shen Zhoujin still stepped on the giant knife and went to the middle.
Before the results arrived, I discovered that those people were actually training.
There are not many houses in this area, but there are about 300 people training, most of them are middle-aged men, they seem to be good at kung fu, but not martial arts.
And because there is no big open space, their training is just one-on-one, jumping up and down in the trees, moving and fighting, like monkeys, which looks a bit ridiculous.
When she came over, it was probably almost finished. She finished her work soon, and then she saw a middle-aged man slowly walking over. The men all saluted and said, "My lord."
The middle-aged man accepted the gift without saying much, and walked over with a noble and elegant look.
The men didn't disperse until he disappeared and walked inside.
Shen Zhoujin looked back and forth and saw that what they were eating was a big pot of rice, including that of the "master", which was cooked in the same place, but on a small stove.
She went in, poured them some powerful sleeping pills, and then watched as the dishes were taken away and eaten by the master.
Her medicine was very powerful, but while the master was taking it, he realized something was wrong and said, "No, this is bad..." He closed his eyes and fell asleep.
Shen Zhoujin went in and gave medicine to all the people waiting around him.
If this were in a real palace, it would probably not be easy to do it, but in a place like this, there are only two people serving the Lord.
After finishing the treatment, I came out and saw that the men were all stumbling around and asleep. Because there were usually no sentries in this kind of place, they had to sleep together. Even if someone noticed something was wrong, they couldn't withstand the power of the medicine.
The three of them walked back and forth several times, and Shen Zhoujin pointed to a courtyard: "That's it?"
Lu Zhiji was a little angry and said: "In the morning, these people led those women out like dogs and locked them inside. They must have been secretly kidnapped!"
Chu Liancheng explained from the side: "There is Datongpu over there, and most people live there. There are about thirty or forty women in the woman's courtyard...and there seems to be no fixed owner in those small houses."
He only said this, and Shen Zhoujin understood and nodded.
Yu Liancheng added: "In the morning, I heard them mention the 'State of Zhou'."
Shen Zhoujin raised his eyebrows and said, "Okay, Xiaojue has gone to dispatch the officers and soldiers. He will probably arrive in the evening."
