But at this moment, Cheng Fan has quietly left.

……

at the same time.

In Qingshi Village, darkness descended.

Dawei and Xiaoxia wanted to take a look at the situation outside, but suddenly found out.

There are no windows in the Li family's old house, so you can only look far away from the second floor of the attic, and you can only see the boundless darkness.

The two suddenly remembered that it wasn't just the Li family's old house.

In the entire Qingshi village, the houses they saw along the way were all made of big square bluestones, and there was no place for windows.

It's like a small box with a square shape.

more like...

One grave after another.

……

Don't go out after dark!

I don't know when this became the iron rule of Qingshi Village.

It is said that those who go out after dark.

When you get back, it's all going to be really weird.

Although they were still doing their daily labor, their eyes looked gray and lifeless.

The loudest and loudest person on weekdays, after this experience, became taciturn and didn't say a word.

Until one day, he would suddenly disappear into his room, soundlessly and without a trace, as if he had evaporated from the world!

Therefore, when those people died, they couldn't hold funerals, and in the village, they could only let their family members find some old clothes at will, set up a clothes tomb, and settle the matter hastily.

Dawei didn't know much about it, because his mind had automatically blurred the memories of his childhood.

In the back of my mind, there are only a few good childhood playmates, and the places where I go to play for a long time.

Subconsciously ignored, as soon as it got dark, the parents of each family would urge the children to go home without delaying for a moment.

Even Dawei, who is overly thirsty for knowledge, never went to the dark night to find out.

But he vaguely remembered that day was day and night was night.

It's definitely not like it is now. It's pitch black outside at eleven o'clock in the morning.

Shui Sheng whose face changed drastically, Uncle Gu's family who was always smiling, strange eyes from passers-by.

In his eyes, the whole Qingshi Village gradually became treacherous.

in the dark.

Shuisheng walked down the bluestone steps from the highest point of Qingshizhai.

His face was pale, as if he could see blue blood vessels, his calmness was a bit scary.

He muttered to himself, "calculate the time, it should start soon."

Om-!

An invisible ripple spread out.

Shuisheng walked down from the side of the road, as if consciously giving way.

In Qingshi Village, he is one of the few "waiters" who can walk in the dark.

Even the uncle of the Gu family who does not have the status of a "waiter" will not easily step into the darkness, and there will be a big price to pay.

Shui Sheng, who has the status of "waiter", is just an ordinary, even low-status person during the day.

In the dark, everything is different.

And this moment.

A series of indistinct figures slowly walked out of the four square rooms, and their faces could not be seen clearly.

They had the same purpose, and walked towards the main steps of Qingshizhai step by step, walking slowly up the main road, just passing by Shuisheng.

Looking at the shadowy figure, the corners of Shui Sheng's mouth split open, revealing a terrifying smile that made one's heart tremble.

Soon, soon, getting closer!

After the last blurred figure passed by, Shui Sheng withdrew his exaggerated smile, returned to indifference and calm, and walked down step by step.

It only took four hours, and the sky gradually became brighter.

Dawei and Xiaoxia looked at each other and checked the time together.

"At 11 o'clock in the morning, night fell."

"At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, it's dawn."

Dawei and Xiaoxia were full of suspicion, and a trace of solemnity flashed in their eyes.

I really don't know what kind of secrets are hidden in this Qingshi village.

Dawei shook his head, "It doesn't matter, let's go out and buy a set of tools now while the sky is bright, and investigate the situation by the way."

"Alright, let's go!"

The two hit it off and walked out of the house together.

After locking the gate, after a little identification of the direction of the village gate, he began to "walk the streets and alleys".

The direction of the Zhaimen is easy to identify, the lowest place is.

The two walked around briefly, and there was not even a shop on the upper floor of Qingshizhai.

This is the residence of the rich, and no one else is allowed to live on this floor.

And the high-ranking households here don't need to purchase food, vegetables and fruits in person at all, and a large number of villagers come in and out with their burdens every day.

Send in fresh vegetables and fruits, and throw out useless garbage.

No one would have imagined that in such a village with beautiful mountains and clear waters and simple folk customs, there is a more distinct structure than the current class system.

The high-ranking family on the top floor seems to be the ancient princes and nobles, aristocratic families.

A little lower are all kinds of small families that provide services to high-ranking and wealthy families.

Those at the bottom are all farming and farming for high-ranking households, as if they were tenant farmers.

The people here are all used to it, and they don't feel that there is anything wrong at all, as if the rich and powerful are born to rule them.

No one questioned, let alone resisted.

As if, everything is as it should be.

Chapter 460 Stupid, because you are not a beauty

The two walked down the stairs paved with bluestone slabs, their eyes glanced at one family after another, and their hearts became more and more uneasy.

They saw the haggard old man leaning against the curb, smoking a pipe, but not a trace of smoke came out of the pipe.

I also saw several little girls jumping on the rubber bands, like machines, with a rigid movement, staring straight at the rubber bands, not like ordinary lively children at all.

There was always a big smile on his face, but that smile made Dawei and the two feel scared from the bottom of their hearts.

Just after they left.

The old man slowly took the pipe out of his mouth and knocked it against the wall, shaking off wisps of off-white powder. No one knew what it was, but it was definitely not soot.

The little girl who jumped the rubber band rolled her eyes slowly, staring straight at the two people's retreating figures, but her feet kept jumping and moving on the rubber band, like a machine.

"The people here... seem a little strange."

"More than a little? Didn't you notice that those little girls have been staring at us, and my back is already soaked."

Dawei said with a look of fear, the vest under the coat had become wet at some point.

Xiao Xia said meaningfully:

"Everyone is staring at us like we are something different from them."

Dawei was stunned for a moment, and after realizing it, he said:

"You mean, in their eyes, we are different?"

"It's likely to happen, that shop just opened, try it and you'll know."

Saying that, Xiao Xia pointed to the blacksmith's shop not far away, and walked quickly.

"Hey, don't provoke any unclean things, it would be great if the temple master is here..."

He shook his head like a rattle, his face full of reluctance.

The two of them don't know anything, so let's go on a rampage here, if they really encounter something dirty, hiss...

Dawei gasped and raised his head, only to find that Xiaoxia was almost at the door of the shop.

Immediately feeling anxious, he quickly followed.

"Xiao Xia, wait for me!"

Da Wei quickly chased after him, and when he arrived at the door, Xiao Xia had already chatted with the boss inside.

"Aren't you from the village?"

The owner of the shop is a bald and strong man with a fierce face and a full beard. He is looking at Xiao Xia with vigilant eyes.

"That's right, what's the matter, don't you accept foreign guests?"

Xiaoxia's expression changed, and she realized that this boss seemed to be different from other people in the village.

To be precise, it is different from other people's eyes, a little less dull and a little more vivid.

"Hmph! As long as you can afford it, with knives, guns, sticks, axes, hooks and forks, I'll give you whatever you want."

The bald man looked at Xiao Xia coldly.

Dawei who came in a hurry opened his mouth wide.

"Xiao Xia, what do you want with those things?"

Xiao Xia rolled his eyes at him, then turned to look at the bald man.

"No need to fight, we just need some tools, and I can pay for them."

"money?"

The bald man sneered and said:

"In this dilapidated village, what's the use of asking for money?"

Dawei also asked with some puzzlement: "Yes, Xiaoxia, we never use money in our village."

"Don't you understand? That's the problem!"

Xiao Xia stomped hard on the idiot next to her.

"Hiss—! It hurts!"

Dawei clutched his feet and cried out in pain.

"Then what do you want, just say it, and I will try my best to help you get it."

A gleam of brilliance flashed in the eyes of the bald man, and his eyes fell on Xiao Xia's body.

"You can have what you want?"

"Yes."

The bald man laughed, and took out a small toolbox from beside him.

"Take it, it's rare to meet outsiders. Take what you want and hurry up, don't stay in this ghost place. Otherwise, you won't be able to leave."

Xiao Xia's eyes tightened, and he asked:

"It sounds like you're an outsider too, right?"

"Is it important to be or not? I can't get away anyway."
