"There are village rules in the village." The young woman led everyone to the guest room and said expressionlessly, "Since you are staying here tonight, no matter what you hear or see, you are not allowed to come out at night." Then she turned around left.

After the young woman left, a small-eyed man in the crowd trembled, looked around uneasily, and whispered: "Boss...boss, we really want to stay here tonight, this... this place is really weird Are you ready?"

The man with the beard squinted at him, but didn't make a sound, but the other square-faced man beside him snorted coldly, and spoke first: "You were the one who rushed to come, and the one who retreats is the loudest now!" It's also you. If you feel scared, go back alone tonight."

"Brother Wang, Brother Wang, you misunderstood me, I... I'm really not afraid." The small-eyed man hurriedly replied, laughing.

"Since you're not afraid, you'll sleep in a room by yourself tonight." The "Brother Wang" said by the man with small eyes said coldly.I don't know if Ning Huan misread it, but after "Brother Wang" said that sentence, the bearded man next to him looked at the small-eyed man subtly, and a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes.

"This..." the small-eyed man hesitated while looking at the bearded man.

"Dashun." Someone patted the shoulder of the small-eyed man, "Look how much Brother Wang takes care of you. There are a total of several guest rooms here, and it's the first time I've seen you doing business. I'm afraid you're not used to it, so why don't you hurry up and thank you Brother Wang." The speaker was the same villager who introduced Dashun to do this "off-the-shelf" business, and Dashun hurriedly nodded and thanked him.

"Since that's the case, the two of us won't argue with you." Su Xian glanced at the crowd, said casually, and led Ning Huan into the first room.

The door opened with a "squeak", and the blowing dust made Ning Huan sneez heavily.Su Xian walked to the table and lit the candlestick on the table.With the help of that dim candlelight, Ning Huan could clearly see the furnishings in the house.The whole room is not big, and the layout is very simple. There is only a thin bed and a mahogany table that has been used for many years. The mold spots on the empty white wall are like rice paper stained by ink stains. The mountains are damp. , the house was even more shady, and Ning Huan only felt as if he was soaked in a piece of wet and cold water vapor.

Ning Huan closed the door, walked to Su Xian's side, and said in a low voice, "Did you see the mark on the village chief just now? The snake bit its tail. This village is indeed related to Sheren Town." Ning Huan's tone paused, he remembered the young woman's words just now, frowned slightly and continued, "And this village is not a border land, so why are there so many wars?"

Su Xian nodded, with a solemn expression: "And what the man said just now, 'It's also for that thing'." He squinted, and the darkness in his eyes became deeper and deeper, "The few people outside Someone must know something." Su Xian turned his eyes to look at Ning Huan, and whispered: "Something will happen again tonight, you and I should not sleep for now." Ning Huan nodded in response up.

It was night, Suxian leaned against the window lattice and stared out of the window by the moonlight.Ning Huan rested his chin on his hand, suppressing sleepiness and lying on the table sleepily. The night was very late, and the two of them were silent. The moonlight shines on the wall through the cracks in the window paper.In the guest rooms where the six people lived next door, the candlelight dimmed not long after they entered the room.

After an unknown amount of time, the door of the next room suddenly opened with a "squeak."Shocked, Ning Huan suddenly raised his head to look at Su Xian, "Hush—" Su Xian hid in the dark of the window and made a silent gesture to Ning Huan.

There was a whisper in the darkness, which was especially clear under the windless moonlit night.One person asked hesitantly, "Boss... Boss, wouldn't it be a little rude for us to leave Dashun here like this?"

"What's real or not, why don't you go?" One person replied sullenly.Ning Huan recognized that person's voice, it was "Brother Wang" among the six, and he continued, "Let's talk about it. Aren't there still two people here? Maybe we can't use Dashun." With fate, we can also find the gate of Sheren Town."

"But..." The other person was still hesitating.

"Let's go, if you don't go, I'm afraid those things will come over." This was the voice of the bearded man, and no one has refuted since he made the decision.A sigh came slowly in the darkness, and with the sound of hurried footsteps, several people disappeared into the depths of the corridor.

"What's coming?" Ning Huan frowned, and asked in an uneasy whisper, "Are we going to follow?"

Su Xian was silent for a moment: "Wait a little longer." The corners of his lips that were slowly drawn up showed a hint of coldness, "Look at what those people want to do with that Dashun left behind." Su Xian replied.

"Da, da, da" There was a burst of footsteps in the depths of the corridor, and every slight echo was almost amplified infinitely by the cramped and dark corridor.In the thick darkness of the shadow, a woman walked out slowly.She has extremely long limbs and is extremely tall. She seems to be several heads taller than those eight-foot men just now. Her gloomy face is twice as long as a normal person. She is dressed in black and wears a tall black felt on top of her head. Hat, her movements were stiff, but the steps under her feet were extremely large.

Ning Huan took a deep breath, and asked in a low voice, "This...is this fucking human or a ghost?"

"Hide." Su Xian said.He hastily turned Ning Huan's face away, pasted the Dao Huang Talisman on his face, and dragged him into the room under the bed board. "Da, da, da" footsteps stopped in front of the two people's house, Ning Huan pursed his lips tightly, held his breath and dared not exhale.

"Squeak—" The door slowly opened.

"Plop, plop—" Under the damp-smelling bed, Ning Huan could only feel his heart beating crazily.The pale moonlight shone inside the house, and a pair of black shoes stepped into the house.One step, two steps... slowly approaching the two of them.Finally, he stopped two or three steps away from the two of them.

Ning Huan thought: Has she already found out that there is no one in the house?

Suddenly, a pair of pale big faces fell in front of Ning Huan's eyes, and his cloudy eyes met Ning Huan's.Suddenly, Ning Huan felt his heart skip a beat.There was not much expression on that big face, the white skin turned up on the face seemed to be peeling off the wall, and the facial features were pulled apart flatly, like a piece of torn human skin.

Ning Huan clenched his fists, cold sweat almost drenched his palms.

"Shh - she can't find it." With his back pressed against a warm chest, Su Xian pulled Ning Huan into his arms with one hand, and then covered his eyes.Sure enough, the big face found nothing under the bed, and a look of bewilderment appeared on the treacherous face.After a while, he left.

The two waited for a while, until the door of the next room was pulled open with a "squeak", and Su Xian and Ning Huan got out from under the bed.

At this time, there was a shrill scream outside the house, Ning Huan was slightly taken aback, and then realized: "It's Dashun!" He shouted softly.The cry didn't last long, and soon turned into whimpers one after another.

The woman in black came out quickly, and Ning Huan and Su Xian hurriedly hid in the dark behind the window lattice.She was holding Dashun's foot with her left hand, and the eight-foot man was dragged to the ground by her like an animal.There was blood all over the way. "Help... help—" that Dashun seemed to be still breathing, unconsciously calling for help.

The woman in black seemed a little impatient, she dropped Dashun's foot, and even though he was dying, he still struggled to crawl backwards when he got the neutral position.The woman in black grabbed Shunzi's head and twisted him around like a toy under her horrified eyes.The whimpering finally stopped, and the woman in black seemed satisfied. She dragged Shunzi's body and continued to walk outside. The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and the blood left a bright red mark on the ground.Ning Huan frowned, and closed his eyes impatiently.

After the woman in black left, the two were silent for a moment.Ning Huan opened his mouth first, and he said with a heavy heart: "So those people have already known the weirdness here, and they have planned to sacrifice him a long time ago." Ning Huan licked his chapped lips and frowned. He continued to infer: "They were looking for the gate of Sheren Town, so they sacrificed one person. Could it be that the person lost by Zhao Wanniang and the others on the road was also because of..." Ning Huan regretted it as soon as he said that, if Back then, someone really offered a house, so according to Zhao Wanniang's description, the person who made this decision could only be Su Xian's father.But how much can Zhao Wanniang believe?

Ning Huan's eyelashes trembled, and there was a trace of panic in his moist eyes. He looked at Su Xian cautiously, for fear that he would get angry because of it: "I...I'm just talking nonsense, you really don't have to take it to heart. .You only know that I am a person who talks nonsense all day long..."

Seeing Ning Huan's cautious expression, Su Xian slightly curled the corners of his lips: "Of course I know how irritating Mr. Ning's mouth is, but I'm used to it—between you and me, you don't need to be so careful when speaking. "He rubbed Ning Huan's head, silently pulled his arms closer to Ning Huan's blank eyes, brushed his cool lips against his forehead, and gently pressed his chin against Ning Huan's head, Staring at the long bloodstain on the ground outside the house, he said lightly, "You are right. But in my impression, he is definitely not such a cold-blooded person. If he really wanted to sacrifice back then, there must be something hidden in it. Ning Huan, are you willing to accompany me to find out the truth?"

Ning Huan nodded hastily, at this moment he didn't push Su Xian away in a hurry, but... they all expressed their hearts to each other, hugging for a while and hugging for a while.Ning Huan hesitated and asked, "Then what shall we do?"

Suxian stared at the long bloodstain on the ground, turned his black eyes slightly, and his eyelashes were full of coldness: "Isn't there a ready-made road here waiting for us to go?"
