Chapter 310 Blame the old man
Talking along the way, walked for about half an hour, and then the car stopped beside an abandoned shabby shed.

"You can only walk in front, you can just climb over the hill, it's not far away!" Pockmarked said, pointing to the small hill ahead.

After coming down, he led the way ahead,

He kept walking towards the mountain stream along the way, and after a while, he turned over to the hills, his pockmarked face looked in front of him, his eyes were straightened, and he let out a loud cry.

"What's wrong?" Chu Yuan asked.

Mazi said with a trembling face, "It's gone!"

I was puzzled: "What did you say?"

"The village is gone, Niujiao Village is gone!" Pockmarked turned his face, his eyes were filled with horror,

Chu Yuan asked suspiciously, "How could the village disappear?"

The pockmarked face seemed to have thought of something extremely terrifying, the whole face became a little distorted due to fear, and the whole body was shaking like chaff.

Under the refraction of the candle, the wrinkled face was pale and pale.

After a while, he said hoarsely: "There is still a long way to go, come in and drink some water before walking."

But when I was at a loss, I vaguely saw a courtyard not far away.

We walked forward along the hills for a while, and as far as we could see, there seemed to be a vague atmosphere in the depths of the dense forest.

Because I was too far away, I couldn't see the appearance of the person in the painting clearly, and a cough came, which brought me back to my senses.

It's as if I'm the only one in the world, and even my feet don't seem to make the sound they should make when they step through the grass.

This kind of mist can't block people's sight, but it makes people feel like being in an illusion.

Chu Yuan asked again: "Do you think that pockmarked face just said that the village disappeared?"

The old man opened the door curtain and came out, holding a plate of steamed buns in his hand.

I said, "There might be something wrong with him."

"My wife is still here, she is not in good health, you just sit here for a while, old man, I will bring you something to eat."

I looked at the plate of steamed buns, and for some reason, the weird feeling became more intense.

I stood at the door a little hesitant, Chu Yuan said: "Go in."

His dim eyes slowly moved over, first looked at Chu Yuan, and finally glanced at me.

After entering the house, the old man closed the door slowly, but the sound of closing the door made me more uneasy. In my mind, the image from the time I first entered the mountain forest flashed.

I always feel that something is not right, and I think to ask quickly, and leave after asking.

I took a deep breath and saw that Mazi's face softened and he fell directly to the ground, so I couldn't help but say, "Calm down!"

"Look, does the ridge over there look like a buffalo's head? Does that ravine look like a bull's eye?"

Chu Yuan seemed to feel it too. After entering the room, I turned my head and asked in a low voice if I felt cold.

There is no electricity here, it seems to be back to the old days.I vaguely remember that when I just remembered, some old people in the village lived in houses that looked like this.It seemed that the old man lived here alone, and there was a strange smell in the whole house.

I took out my phone, swiped it a few times, and put it down in dejection. In this deep mountain forest, there is no signal at all.

Logically speaking: the weather in June and July now, although the mountain village is cooler than the city, it will not make people feel cold, but the moment I enter the house, I feel like I have entered a cold cellar.

"This is not Niujiao Village, you must have gone to the wrong place."

But this courtyard is completely different.

I was completely dumbfounded, and after realizing it, I chased after a few steps, but Pockmarked Face was used to staying in the mountains, and he ran faster than a rabbit, and he disappeared after rushing out into the woods.

However, most of the courtyards built in such places are houses for forest guards.

I felt again, as if there was something wrong with that place.

As soon as he finished speaking, before the words fell, a scream of "ah" came out of the pockmarked face, and he stood up in fear, as if he had seen something terrible, turned around and ran down the mountain.

I walked half a circle around the courtyard and came to the main entrance. I looked at the door and couldn't help being stunned again.

When we came to the house, the surroundings became silent in an instant, and the stove in the corner was burning with a raging fire.

I took out my phone and took a look. It was still early in the dark, which should be because the sky had darkened.

Although I don't know much about Feng Shui, I also know that it is not good if the yard is round.

It was like, how should I put it, like a grave!
Into a grave! ?
This outlandish thought gave me goosebumps all over my body.

Chu Yuan hummed, and said, "Let's see if there are any people living inside, and find out how to get to Niujiao Village."

The old man walked into the side room, and I looked at the room carefully, only to find that the light source came from a candle on the table in the distance.

The hunchbacked old man staggered towards the side room, his skinny back made it feel like he would fall if he touched it lightly.

Chu Yuan nodded, hummed, and said, "I see, it must be a neuropathy."

Then there were several coughs, the door was opened, and a very old hunchbacked old man walked to the door with a candle.

He nodded.

Then, Chu Yuan knocked on the door for a long time

Under the light of the candles, I saw a portrait hanging on the wall above the table, a very large sketch.Generally, those enshrined are the deceased ancestors of the owner.

The courtyard wall was only a little over one and a half meters, but the door was over three meters long. When Chu Yuan saw it, he frowned and said why the house was built so strangely.

I said that the places where the forest guards live are generally relatively simple and simple. This kind of repair does not take Feng Shui into consideration, and it is estimated that there are only some house repair materials left.

There is a road under our feet, which means that someone has walked here, as long as there is a road, you will be able to see them.

Chu Yuan and I looked at each other and said that we were passing by and wanted to come here to ask for directions.

Ordinary villagers' courtyards are made of fences and walls, and gradually become square with edges and corners.

A white candle flickers from time to time.Our figures were drawn long and projected on the wall, dangling around.

I stood on this mountain and looked down, and said for a moment: "I kind of understand why it is called Niujiao Village!"

I was overjoyed, and planned to go up with Chu Yuan to ask, but when I got there, I found that this courtyard was different from the usual ones.

There are only two rooms in this room, and the other room is dark and I can't see anything. After I sat down, I asked, "Master, you live here alone."

I was a little puzzled, but the uneasiness in my heart became more and more obvious. At this time, there was a faint light in the room.

Those eyes, like dead fish, turned white.

Although my actions are not slow, the sky seems to be getting darker as I go deeper.

Chu Yuan took a closer look and said, "Listen to you, it really looks like a bull's head and bull's eyes."

After walking another distance, the silence was even more terrifying.

The hunchbacked old head was a little deaf, and walked straight into the house after speaking.

I:"……"

The courtyard is made of ordinary stones, and it is not a square courtyard, but a circle.

The old man chuckled, put the steamed buns on the greasy table, and told us to eat whatever we wanted, Chu Yuan and I didn't move.

The hunchbacked old man sat down and asked us two young people where we came from and how we got here.

Chu Yuan said a few words to him, while I kept staring at the hunchbacked old man. After saying a few words, I just wanted to ask and left.

So I said, "Master, do you know how to get to Niujiao Village?"
