At this time, the valley was completely surrounded by green vegetation, because many of the trees were very lush and tall. The sunlight outside shone dappledly, and as the sky got darker, it was almost completely dark in the valley.
But the scene in Gem Village is not what Chen Zhi and the others imagined just now...
In their predictions, this place had turned into a valley of death, with corpses everywhere, and they had imagined even more terrifying scenes~~~
But what I didn't expect was that at this time, the lights in the village were flashing and full of life~~~
And looking from a distance, there were villagers in twos and threes walking on the paths in the village, walking in the fields.
"How is this going?",
Fat Wei looked forward with wide eyes, then turned to Chen Zhi in disbelief and asked:
"Didn't you just say that the barrier has been broken, but look at the front, aren't the villagers still walking around fine?
Could it be..., we are overthinking..., there is no dark thing breaking in at all, the villagers are still living here..."
Chen Zhi looked at the scene in front of him and was a little surprised. He looked at the villagers walking freely in the fields, thought for a while, and finally shook his head.
"This is impossible!!
If they have not been harmed by anything, it is not impossible for them to cut off contact with the outside world.
Half a year is not a long time, and they did not come out to call for help, nor did they come out to contact Yamashita, which proves that these people must have been imprisoned by something outside! Or they were killed~~~~"
"Then what's going on now?",
Fat Wei pointed to the village ahead,
"The facts are right in front of us. People are walking around alive now~~~, and a few of us are sneaking around in this grass pit, looking like thieves..."
What Fat Wei said was indeed true. Facing the scene ahead, Chen Zhi took out his telescope and looked forward.
Their telescopes all have long-range observation functions and can perform night vision, allowing them to explore long distances~~~
Under Chen Zhi's telescope, those walking in the fields and villages are indeed villagers. They are all wearing the coarse cloth that is often seen in Mongolian rural areas, and some are also wearing mining hats and mining lamps. It can be seen that they are indeed villagers.
Workers in the gem mine~~~
And judging from the public environment in this village, the living conditions of the villagers are very good.
Most of the villages are small single-family villas, some even imitating Western architectural models. There are also very convenient public facilities outside. Gardening and flowers are very exquisite. The public greening in the village is very beautiful. It can be called a paradise.

"what to do……",
Fat Wei turned back to look at Chen Zhi,
"You see, the Mongolian folks are all fine, but we are still hiding here like thieves... This is too stupid~~~
If you ask me, we should go into the village to meet the villagers. Maybe they are ready to grab mutton and wait for us!!! We will talk about the rest later~~~~"
"Don't worry..." Chen Zhi was still a little worried. After thinking about it, he turned to look at Hu Meng beside him.
"Humeng, use a telescope to see if there is anyone you know in the village? Take a closer look~~~"
"good!!",
After hearing what they just said, Hu Meng couldn't hold it any longer. He took the telescope in Chen Zhi's hand and hurriedly looked forward.
"I recognize..., I recognize...",
Hu Meng pointed to the largest house in the field ahead and shouted.
"The person sitting in front of that big house is my fourth aunt~~~, the youngest daughter of Grandpa Murte. She was married to this village ten years ago, to the son of the village chief. She is standing here now.
It's in front of home, let's go there quickly!
My fourth aunt will be very happy to see me coming~~~~~" After Hu Meng finished speaking, he put down the telescope and rushed forward.
"Wait!!!", Chen Zhi stopped him immediately, and then asked seriously,
"Do you see clearly?
Is that indeed your aunt? Is it possible that... someone else is pretending to be her? Or... is it something else?"
"Oh! You can't be wrong...",
Humeng replied eagerly:
"Can I not recognize my own aunt?
Look at her, she's still wearing a long burgundy skirt made outside. That's the craftsmanship of our Golden Family's own tailor~~~
And look at the child next to her, that is her daughter, my little cousin! Can I still admit my mistake?"
"Yeah……",
When Fat Wei heard this, he also took the telescope and looked forward.
Sure enough, in front of the largest villa, there was a middle-aged woman standing there.
The woman was slightly fat, wearing five red and green clothes and exaggerated jewelry. She was a typical Mongolian woman. Next to her was a little girl of three or five years old with two pigtails.
Running back and forth at the door...
"If it's really your fourth aunt, then you can't be wrong~~~~"
Fat Wei put down the telescope, turned around and said to everyone,
"Oh~~~, we may be thinking too much. We are paranoid every day, thinking that something has happened. In fact, aren't we living a good life?
Okay, let’s not hide here. Let’s all go over. If you have anything to do, we’ll talk about it in the village~~~~
Look at what delicious food Prince Humeng’s fourth aunt is entertaining us with!!!”
After Fat Wei finished speaking, everyone no longer worried, and everyone's nervousness relaxed. They stood up and followed Hu Meng into the village.
"stop……",
Chen Zhi said sharply to stop everyone's actions.
Everyone turned around and looked at Chen Zhi with strange eyes~~~
"Chengzi, what's wrong..., is there anything wrong?
Let me tell you, don’t think so much~~~~Hu Meng can see clearly that she is her fourth aunt, can they see it wrong?
I know what you are worried about? You are afraid that they will all turn into that thing!!!
But don’t worry, those kind of things are wobbly when they walk, how can they walk as smoothly as they do~~~
Besides, if those were really big furry rice dumplings, how could they escape my eyes?
Don’t worry! Look, the little cousin from Humeng is also there. Look how lively that child is jumping around..."
Chen Zhi did not respond to Fat Wei's words. He still raised his binoculars and carefully observed the fat woman and little girl in front of him.
The little girl is indeed very active, jumping and running around her mother~~~~~, everything looks very normal~~~~~
But Chen Zhi always felt that something was wrong...
