Be pampered at the Dream Hunting Ground

Chen Lele shook her head desperately: "I won't go back, I want to follow mother."

Hui Niang's face became even more ugly: "I've already said it, I'm not your mother."

"You are my mother." Although Chen Lele did not dare to let go of her temper in front of Hui Niang, she was stubborn but did not change: "Even if you don't recognize me, I will not leave."

Hui Niang knew that denying her identity was useless, so she suppressed her temper and whispered: "Lele, you can't stay here, listen to your mother, get out of here, and don't come here again."

Seeing her mother calling her name, Chen Lele began to cry softly: "Mother, do you really want me?"

Hui Niang was silent for a while, and then continued: "You go back first, in a few days, Mother will pick you up."

In a few days?

Is it a massacre?

Gu Xiaofeng frowned slightly.

Chen Lele's eyes lit up: "Really?"

Hui Niang: "Really."

Chen Lele: "You won't lie to me?"

Hui Niang straightened Chen Lele's hair, which was blown tousled by the wind, and said, "I won't lie to you."

Chen Lele stopped making trouble.

Out of the corner of Hui Niang's eyes, she saw the little boy squatting in the yard suddenly stand up and walk towards the door.Seeing him, the two girls rushed to stop him, the little boy pushed away the little girl who was blocking him, and insisted on going out, the three children tugged.

"Lele, sit here for a while."

Hui Niang didn't notice Gu Xiaofeng and the others standing outside the gate of the yard, she walked quickly towards the little boy, took the boy's hand, and said softly: "Be good and don't run around, aunt will cook noodles for you later, okay?" good?"

The little boy was very thin, and his already big eyes looked even bigger. He had stopped crying. Looking at Hui Niang, there was a calmness in his eyes that did not belong to this age: "Did my sister get boiled?"

There are a lot of people fleeing outside, they are so hungry that they can't bear it, and there are also people who cannibalize.

The little boy had apparently seen cannibalism too.

Hearing the little boy's words, not only Hui Niang, but also Shen Fang and Fang Zhou outside the door changed their expressions slightly.

Hui Niang: "Why do you think so?"

"I smell meat," said the little boy.

Hui Niang: "Worshiping the mountain god is to send meat into the mountain, but how can you think about your sister?"

Little boy: "There are no pigs or sheep in the village, not even a chicken."

Hui Niang: "The village can't afford these, but the village head sends people out to buy them every day. Besides, it's not that far from here to Sifang City. They don't exist here, but Sifang City has them."

Little boy: "Can the village chief really buy livestock?"

Hui Niang: "Yes."

The little boy looked at Hui Niang with suspicious eyes: "But my sister..."

Hui Niang: "People who died of illness must be buried, otherwise the infection will be transmitted to the living. She will have a good pregnancy in her next life."

Little boy: "I want to visit my sister's grave."

Hui Niang: "There are too many dead people, there will be no graves."

The little boy fell silent at last.

Hearing this, Gu Xiaofeng took two steps back slowly, at the same time Jiang Lou turned around and walked out.

Shen Fang and Fang Zhou also followed.

Gu Xiaofeng walked away two steps, stopped, turned his head and whispered to Shen Fang: "Sister Fang, you and Fang Zhou went into the room to look at Hui Niang and the children."

Shen Fang: "Do you think Hui Niang is not telling the truth?"

Gu Xiaofeng: "Yes."

If Hui Niang is not telling the truth, then the missing little girl is the clue.

Shen Fang: "Be careful."

Gu Xiaofeng nodded, and turned back with Jiang Lou.

Wang Wu stood at the entrance of the alley and did not leave. Seeing them coming out without their children and two people missing, he rushed up to meet them, glanced into the depth of the alley, and asked, "You..."

Gu Xiaofeng: "There is something wrong with the pass, we have to ask Xiong Si."

Wang Wu frowned slightly.

There has never been a problem with the pass that went out from them. It was changed two days ago. Wang Wu would not believe it at all when he heard this.

But Gu Xiaofeng and the others were the first buyers after Xiong Si was replaced.

He had a ghost in his heart, and when he heard that there was a problem with the pass, he couldn't help but wonder if Xiong Si had done something to the pass before.

"What's wrong with the pass?"

"You'll only know when you see Xiong Si." Gu Xiaofeng deliberately emphasized the word 'Xiong Si'.

The implication is that whoever they buy from has to find someone to deal with.

Wang Wu couldn't ask any more questions, so he had to lead them to the village again.

The direction of the wind changed, and a gust of wind blew, carrying a smell of meat.

Jiang Lou turned his head to look in the direction of the alley next to him.

The family at the end of the alley is an ordinary villager's house with a small front yard. If it is replaced by a modern house, the front yard is probably as big as a small entrance garden.

The back of the house is leaning against the mountain, and visually measuring the distance between the house and the mountain, there should be a backyard behind.

However, the combined size of the front and back yards would not be larger than the yard where Hui Niang lived with the children.

Moreover, the courtyard gate is no different from other villagers' houses, so it should not be the village head's house.

Gu Xiaofeng raised his head, sniffed the air, and let out a 'Yo': "You can't even dig a single wild vegetable outside, yet you can still eat meat in your village."

"Little people like us rely on the blessing of the mountain god, but we can barely go hungry, how can we have meat to eat." Hearing Gu Xiaofeng's words, Wang Wu didn't know whether to be angry or laugh.

"I can already smell meat." Gu Xiaofeng sniffed again.

"That's meat for the mountain god." Wang Wu sighed, "We can smell it too."

Jiang Lou said abruptly: "I heard that if you touch the light of the mountain god, you can drink broth."

"If there is a lot of meat, the soup can be a good drink. But if there is little meat, you can't count on it." Wang Wu thought of the broth, a little greedy, and licked his lips.

Gu Xiaofeng: "Feng Village has dozens of households, at least one or two hundred people. One bowl of soup for each person should be enough to cook a pig. These days, it is rare to see a sheep. Where do you go to buy pigs?" ?”

Although Gu Xiaofeng changed his face, he still looked innocent and harmless. Although Wang Wu was vigilant, he couldn't help but say a few more words: "It's the village chief who took people out to look around. If people lead the way, these things will not be clear.”

Gu Xiaofeng nodded his head, expressing his understanding, but turned his head and glanced at the alley that he had already passed, and asked, "Is that the village chief's house?"

"Of course not." Wang Wu was amused by Gu Xiaofeng's ignorance, the village head of any village is the most powerful in the village, most of the village heads live in the best and largest houses in the village, and their village is no exception.

Gu Xiaofeng: "Aren't the offerings for the mountain gods prepared at the village chief's house?"

Wang Wu: "It is true that the offerings are prepared at the village head's house, but in our village we can't eat meat once a year, and we can't cook it well. Not only us, but also the village head's house. Only the mother-in-law of the Zhao family has a good cook. Yi. In this world, it’s good for people to eat enough, so naturally they won’t be so particular about it, but giving things to the mountain gods shouldn’t be too casual, so the cooking of the meat is left to Granny Zhao.”

Gu Xiaofeng: "Grandma Zhao can do things that even the village chief's family can't do. It seems that Granny Zhao is a big shot."

Wang Wu: "It's not a big shot, but in the early years, I worked in the kitchen of the city lord's mansion in Sifang City, and I have more knowledge than others."

Gu Xiaofeng nodded.

Fengcun Village is exclusive, and foreigners who come to Fengcun Village will not be allowed to stay overnight no matter how late they are.

If Hui Niang can settle down in Feng Village, the person who brings her into the village must have a high status in the village.

Xiong Si was able to sell the Sifang City pass, so they felt that Xiong Si had a special status in the village.

They naturally thought that Hui Niang was introduced by Xiong Si from Fengxiang Village.

But this time Xiong Si changed his person, Gu Xiaofeng felt that something was not right.

If Xiong Si is a person of great status, how can he change at will?

And those who say that they can be replaced will not have the right to allow people to settle down.

Granny Zhao in Wang Wukou is an indispensable person in the village who can cook meat as a tribute to the mountain god, so her status is naturally different from others.

In addition, she came from the City Lord's Mansion. With this relationship, it is reasonable for Hui Niang to settle in Fengxiang Village.

After straightening out these relationships, the smell of blood from Xiong Si made Gu Xiaofeng's thoughts come true again.

At the gate of Xiong Si's house.

Gu Xiaofeng looked up at the roof, Xiong Si's house was also against the mountain.

Wang Wu stepped forward to knock on the door, Gu Xiaofeng followed behind Wang Wu, sniffing, there was no smell of blood.

The door opened with a 'squeak'.

'Xiong Si' stood at the door and looked at the two people behind Wang Wu. Seeing that they were the two who left just now, he looked at Wang Wu in confusion.

There had never been a problem with the pass that was sold, and then there was a problem when the person was changed. Wang Wu also had a bad face when he saw 'Xiong Si': "Go into the room and say."

This 'Xiong Si' might just be in the top position, he hasn't got his feet on his feet yet, and he doesn't have the confidence that Xiong Si has seen before. Seeing that Wang Wu's face is not good, he quickly let the door out and let people in.

As soon as Gu Xiaofeng entered the room, he could smell the extremely faint smell of blood.

The smell of blood did not come out of the house, indicating that the person with blood on his body had never gone out.

The smell of blood was fresh, not stinky, it was the blood that flowed out today.

'Xiong Si' has no smell of blood on his body, the blood does not emanate from Xiong Si's body.

Gu Xiaofeng looked towards the front room door.

'Xiong Si' closed the door and asked Wang Wu, "Why did they come back?"

Wang Wu: "They said there was a problem with the pass."

'Bear Four': "Where is the problem?"

Gu Xiaofeng took out the passport and pointed to the seal on it: "This chapter is wrong."

'Xiong Si' took the pass from Gu Xiaofeng's hand, only glanced at the seal on the pass, and then looked at Wang Wu.He had tried his best to suppress his emotions, but Gu Xiaofeng and Jiang Lou still saw his look for help to Wang Wu.

Apparently this 'Bear Four' was not familiar with passes.

Wang Wu stared at the seal for a while, expressing that there was no problem with the seal.

Gu Xiaofeng remembered that after the NPC village head got the pass last time, he directly put it in his arms without passing through Wang Wu's hands, and insisted that the seal was different from the one they got last time.

Under Gu Xiaofeng's insistence, Wang Wu really showed a trace of uncertainty, hesitated for a while, and said: "You guys wait here for a while, I will ask."

Gu Xiaofeng: "I'm sorry to trouble you."

'Bear Four' is just an ordinary salesman thing, that's for sure.

Wang Wu folded the pass and stuffed it into his arms, and walked towards the door.

Gu Xiaofeng and Jiang Lou exchanged glances, Gu Xiaofeng raised his hand and cut Wang Wu's neck with his palm, and Wang Wu fell to the ground as soon as his body softened.

'Xiong Si' was not as fast as the previous Xiong Si. He realized when he saw Wang Wu fell to the ground, and opened his mouth to call out, but Jiang Lou grabbed him with one hand around his neck and the other over his mouth. 'Xiong Si' couldn't shout out and struggled desperately, but was suffocated by Jiang Lou.

Gu Xiaofeng walked quickly to the door to the opposite room, and when he got to the door, the smell of blood was indeed stronger.

There was no movement behind the door.

Gu Xiaofeng gently pushed open the door, the smell of blood mixed with the smell of water came to his nostrils, Gu Xiaofeng did not enter the room immediately.

Jiang Lou walked over with 'Xiong Si' on his hoop, and stood outside the door with Gu Xiaofeng, looking inside.

There are no windows in the room and the light is very dark.

Against the wall by the door was a simple wooden table with candles on it.

Gu Xiaofeng entered the room, took out a lighter from his purse, and lit a candle.

The flames lit up, and although they couldn't illuminate the entire room, they could see the general situation clearly.

In addition to the small wooden table by the door, there is only a narrow bed in the room.

There are axes and sickles hanging on the wall.

These things are common tools in the farmhouse, but hanging on the wall makes people feel that the purpose of these things is not so conventional.

The floor had been washed with water and gave off a not-so-pleasant smell of water.

At the foot of the bed was a trace of blood that had been diluted by the water.

Gu Xiaofeng squatted down, wiped off a little blood with his fingers, put it under his nose to smell it, and rubbed it away with his fingers.

Look up and look at the ax hanging on the wall.

The ax was also washed with water.

But the sharp blood gleam after eating blood remained on the blade.

There was no smell of blood outside the gate, indicating that the injured had never left the room.

But there was no one in the room, so there could only be other exits here.

Gu Xiaofeng bent his fingers and tapped on the wall, the walls on all sides were solid, except for a hollow space beside the bed, Gu Xiaofeng raised his eyebrows: "I found it."

Jiang Lou was still holding a person, Gu Xiaofeng didn't bother to spend time looking for the mechanism to open the door, and looked at the 'Xiong Si' that Jiang Lou was holding.

Jiang Lou let go, and pushed the 'Xiong Si' who was being hooped forward.

'Xiong Si' just wanted to run, when his neck felt cold, and he found that the sickle hanging on the wall was hooking his neck. If he hadn't reacted quickly, his throat would have been cut by the sickle, and he was scared out of his wits.

Jiang Lou said coldly, "Open the door."

'Xiong Si' was flattened by someone's move, knowing that he had no room to resist in front of this person, so he had to carefully move to the side of the bed, holding the legs of the bed against the wall with both hands and turning around half a circle.

A door slid open in the wall next to the bed, and behind it was a cave.

The chill in the mountains was mixed with the smell of blood.

Gu Xiaofeng walked into the cave, turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone, there was a wheel switch on the mountain wall, turn the wheel, and the secret door closed.

Gu Xiaofeng closed the hidden door and nodded at Jiang Lou.

Jiang Lou took the scythe off Xiong Si's neck, knocked him unconscious with a slap, then went to the outside room and dragged Wang Wu in.

Gu Xiaofeng took down the rope hanging on the wall, tied Wang Wu and 'Xiong Si' back to back from head to toe, then rolled up two balls of straw used to make the bed, gagged their mouths, and threw them into the cave. Even if the two wake up, they can't go out to report the news.

After completing these, Gu Xiaofeng and Jiang Lou closed the secret door and walked deep into the cave.

They didn't know what was going on in the cave, so they didn't dare to go inside with flashlights.

Once the secret door was closed, the cave was pitch black, and the ground was uneven.

Gu Xiaofeng has seen things in the dark before, but in such darkness, it is very inconvenient to move.

He was about to feel his way forward when a hand reached out and held his hand.

The hand was dry and cool, a little bigger than his hand, just enough to hold his hand firmly.

When Gu Xiaofeng turned his head, he could only see the vague silhouette around him.

He wanted to pull out his hand, but that hand clenched even tighter, with moderate strength, leading him forward, with steady steps.

Gu Xiaofeng looked down at the hand he was holding.

The hand being held was shrouded in darkness, and only a vague shadow could be seen, but the tactile sensation of being held tightly was extremely clear.

He has been the strongest in the team since he was a child.

In the eyes of everyone, he does not need the help of others, and it is the first time that he is taken care of by others like this, but Gu Xiaofeng has a feeling of déjà vu.

It seems that a long time ago, someone held hands like this and walked a long way.

When is it

Gu Xiaofeng couldn't figure it out.

Jiang Lou's very soft voice came from the front: "There is a pit, don't step on it."

Gu Xiaofeng stepped through the pit mentioned by Jiang Lou. The pit was not too big, but there was a rather sharp piece of stone standing in the pit. The soles of shoes in this era are not as strong as modern ones. Broken soles.

"Can you see?"

"Ah."

"You can see this, are you still human?"

"No."

"..."

The voice in the cave was a little distorted, Gu Xiaofeng couldn't tell if his words were true or if he choked on purpose.

After walking for a while, Gu Xiaofeng confirmed that there was no one else in the cave, pulled out his hand, and turned on the flashlight of his mobile phone.

They need to check the situation in the cave, and it is impossible to walk hand in hand all the time.

The moment his hands were empty, Jiang Lou's hands could not help but clenched into fists, the palms seemed to still carry Gu Xiaofeng's warm body temperature.

The young master's hands are always so warm.

Lights illuminate the ground.

There was scarlet around the feet, which was the trace of a bloody thing being dragged all the way.

The two squatted down.

Jiang Lou dipped his finger in some blood and rubbed it with his fingertips.

"Leave it this morning."

Gu Xiaofeng let out a "huh" and looked forward: "Is it Xiong Si, or the little girl?"

Jiang Lou shook his head: "It's hard to say."

Two possibilities.

One is that the little girl was killed by Xiong Si and then dragged away from here.

Second, Xiong Si was killed and dragged away from here.

But if it was a little girl who was killed, why did someone else sell the pass?

But if it was Xiong Si who was killed, where did the little girl go?

Gu Xiaofeng shone the flashlight forward, and there was a fork in front.Gu Xiaofeng put the light on the hole on the right: "According to the distance we have traveled, this should be Granny Zhao's backyard."

Jiang Lou: "Yes."

Gu Xiaofeng pointed the flashlight at the front of the cave again: "I don't know where this cave can lead."

Jiang Lou: "Go and have a look."

Gu Xiaofeng nodded, stood up, and walked towards the sideways fork.

This fork is very short, only tens of meters to the end.

There is also a door at the end, and there is a switch on the stone wall next to it.

There was the faint sound of someone walking behind the door.

If you open the door and go out, the people outside will definitely be alarmed.

Gu Xiaofeng looked at a new dead ghost squatting in the corner of the door.

The author has something to say: Jiang Lou: "I'm not human, really not."

**

There was a catastrophic flood here on the 18th, and the whole city was flooded. Suyu’s house was also submerged for one and a half floors. After the flood, there was a power outage and no water supply. It was restored on the third day, and the water in the house was drained. The furniture and appliances were soaked badly, and it took several days to clean up the mud. The soaked appliances had to be repaired (there were too many people affected, and the repairmen were very busy), and the sofa curtains and everything had to be cleaned. and disinfection (depressingly, the washing machine is broken, and all the huge things have to be washed by hand), and there is a lot of work. I only took a little time to write today. I will try my best to write in the future, but there is too much work after the flood. For the time being, the daily update and word count cannot be guaranteed, please understand.
