"Even if all the thick fog in the tiankeng sea of clouds comes out, it will only cover the area around that tiankeng. We have to go out for about five or six kilometers, right? Why hasn't the thick fog dispersed yet? Could it be...
"
Teng Xiaosong didn't finish speaking, but the expression on his face looked a little nervous.
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Lao Qiye scolded in a low voice.
Then he looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he whispered again: "I know, you suspect that... a mountain ghost is breaking the wall! But this kind of thing is rare. And these are city people, you
If you tell them, it will either make them think it is feudal superstition, or it will make them wet their pants in fear, which is very troublesome. What's more, we are going so smoothly now, we are not sure yet."
Teng Xiaosong swallowed his saliva: "But if a mountain ghost attacks the wall, it's no joke! We will be trapped in the thick fog forever, unable to get out, until we starve to death."
Lao Qiye patted him on the shoulder: "Xiaosong, you are the best hunter in our town. But after all, you are young and you still can't hold your breath. Do you know that some things need capable people to handle them? We ourselves
Don’t be afraid. And I don’t believe it, the old man. He is so unlucky. After all, the possibility of a mountain ghost breaking into a wall according to legend is still very small.”
Teng Xiaosong nodded, the nervous expression on his face disappeared, and he became calm again. And the conversation between the two of them, the old and the young, was heard word by word in the ears of Fu Yang and Wei Ke...
Their judgment was that the thick fog should indeed be a natural phenomenon.
"Honey, what is this mountain ghost attacking the wall? Why haven't I heard of it? Aren't they all ghosts attacking the wall?"
Fu Yang asked curiously.
"Maybe they are ghosts in the mountains, playing like ghosts and breaking walls! Hehe."
Wei Ke smiled at him and stuck out her tongue to look cute. This queen's cuteness was really life-threatening! Fu Yang almost had a nosebleed.
He thought for a while and smiled: "If it is really that kind of mountain ghost breaking the wall, it would be fine. My wife is a late ghost king. Even if she holds a certain position in the underworld, she can be regarded as a high official.
Are you okay? What kind of mountain ghosts, wild ghosts and the like are coming, you are not allowed to kneel down and kowtow and call your Lady the Queen?"
That is!
Wei Ke raised his chin, looking arrogant.
At this time, Chen Qiang, who had a good relationship with Fu Yang, came over - of course he couldn't see Wei Ke. He walked to Fu Yang and asked in a low voice carefully: "Fu Yang, you are driving in the mountains at night, and there are still many things around you.
It's very foggy. Are you scared?"
"Why, Chen Qiang, are you scared? Hehe. I remember when I was in junior high school, you often secretly used MP3 to search for ghost stories on late-night radio stations in the student dormitory. You were very brave."
Fu Yang was joking deliberately.
Chen Qiang showed a tangled expression: "That was in the dormitory. This is the wilderness! And it's filled with thick fog. The environment is scary enough. Although it's fun to think about it, this kind of travel experience is difficult.
.But I'm afraid, there won't be...there's really a ghost, right?"
Fu Yang felt funny in his heart.
He really wanted to tell Chen Qiang, saying: Yes! Of course there are ghosts! And right next to you, there is a ghost king.
But I still held back and just reassured him not to be afraid. With so many experienced tour guides and local hunter guides, there must be no problem with safety.
Chen Qiang finally felt a little more at ease and said no more.
Huh?
Fu Yang's spiritual sense suddenly discovered that there was a village ahead. It seemed that he had reached his destination, right?
Sure enough, after a minute or two, Lao Qiye, who was walking at the front, shouted loudly with a voice full of joy: "Dear friends, our fear tonight is finally over! In front of us is Shanxi Village, where we will spend the night.
The place. And we have already greeted the folks in the village a few days ago, and they have prepared delicious farm food waiting for us."
Arrived at Shanxi Village?!
How wonderful!
All the students in Fu Yang's class cheered happily.
They all knew that this "Mountain Creek Village" was their rest stop on this light adventure trip. The original plan was to eat and stay here tonight.
After groping in the thick fog for more than an hour, they were already exhausted. Thinking of the delicious farm food - and the ingredients are all natural and pollution-free, many people are drooling.
But……
Before reaching the entrance of the village, Fu Yang and Wei Ke frowned when their spiritual senses were able to cover half of the village in front.
Because none of them felt the slightest bit of a human village atmosphere in the village!
It was empty, like an abandoned village.
But similarly, there was no trace of supernatural power... In the dark night, the village was silent!
The couple looked at each other, both confused.
Could it be that all the folks in the village have gone to the second half of the village?
Let’s take a look and talk!
Continuing forward, the local hunter guides, led by Lao Qiye and Teng Xiaosong, led the team to the entrance of Shanxi Village.
The reason why it is called this is because there is a clear stream outside the village that flows around half of the village. There are delicious wild fish in the stream, and the gurgling water is also very beautiful during the day.
Shanxi Village has a history of more than 300 years. It is said that during the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, a group of people migrated from Wuzhong County to the depths of the mountains to escape chaos.
Because of the inconvenient transportation, it continued here for many years. It was not until the 1980s that it was rediscovered by the relevant local departments and then included in the household registration population.
But because Gonglong Town is also very remote and close to the mountains, it has some contacts with this mountain village. Sometimes they even get married to each other. So this time, Lao Qiye has made an agreement with the folks here to entertain the big people.
City dwellers who come to the city to travel and experience nature.
"Huh? Why aren't there any lanterns hanging at the entrance of the village? Didn't we agree a few days ago to come here tonight? The villagers should have arranged a farm dinner in the open space in front of the village. It would be quite lively?" A hunter guide said a little strangely.
The tour guide also frowned: "Besides, this village is too quiet, isn't it? There are no lights inside. Could it be that the whole village has already gone to sleep? But it's only after eight o'clock, and the farm party banquet has been arranged for a few days.
"
The happy expression on Lao Qiye's face gradually disappeared.
After thinking about it, he asked everyone to wait and not rush in, and sent a few hunter guides to the village to have a look.
"Xiaosong, you take Er Niu, Da Ma and Shan Wa, four strong young men. Go to the village first to see what is going on. Are all the villagers sleeping, or something."
good!
Teng Xiaosong took the order and led the other three tough young hunters through the centuries-old ancient archway at the gate of Shanxi Village. After entering the village, his back disappeared into the darkness ahead...
