(Chapter 1 arrives today. Congratulations to Xiaoling Children’s Shoes for becoming a contributor to this book! In order to thank Xiaoling Children’s Shoes and everyone for their support, a new chapter will be added tomorrow. Please look forward to it, haha.)

Zhang Lang and Ba Xiaolan were even more astonished that more than 20 people came out of the cave one after another.

The dozen or so people who walked in the front were a group of young men in bunt outfits, holding firecrackers or shotguns in their hands. Those who followed them were of different ages and costumes. There were grey-haired old ladies and childish faces. Child.

The group of young men in the front all pointed their guns at Xie Lin and the others, with vigilance and vigilance on their faces, and the leader even made a few chattering words.

It's a pity that Xie Lin and the others couldn't understand what he was talking about, but it was estimated that this person was also asking Xie Lin and the others who they were and why they came here.

The group of women, children, and children in the back all looked a little dazed and nervous.

But whether it's the men in front, or the women, children, and children behind, most of the time they look at the new coffin. The expression also looked a little worried.

When the group of people came out of the cave, the group of corpse rats in the coffin also jumped onto the coffin boards on both sides of the coffin, but soon, these corpse rats bared their teeth at the group of people, and then went to the coffin again. He jumped into the coffin, and continued to eat the person in the coffin wantonly.

The other corpse rats still surrounded the coffin, reacting calmly.

And those people who came out of the cave didn't intend to stop those corpse rats, instead, the frightened expression on their faces gradually disappeared, and their eyes turned to Xie Lin and the others, and the man in the lead chattered again In a word, his face became more serious, the guns in the hands of him and the men behind him were also pointed at Xie Lin and the others, and several of them even pulled the bolts.

The three of Xie Lin couldn't help becoming a little nervous. If these people really shot, they were so close, but it would be bad luck.

But at this time, the corpse rats in the coffin jumped out again, looked at Schelling and the others, then at the group of people opposite Schelling and the others, bared their teeth at those people, and led the corpse-eating rats The mouse still nodded, and then swaggered and bounced off the platform, and then ran down the cliff along the stone steps.

These corpse rats all had round stomachs, and their movements became a little sluggish, as if they had eaten too much.

The corpse rats around the coffin also looked at Xie Lin and the group of people opposite Xie Lin and the others, and several corpse rats jumped into the coffin again.But soon, those corpse rats jumped out again, yelled at other corpse rats, and then these corpse rats also left in a mighty manner.

From beginning to end, they all behaved quite calmly, and did not show the slightest nervousness or fear, but seemed a little arrogant.

When these corpse rats left, the group of people opposite Xie Lin and the others not only did not show any dissatisfaction or anger, but they all lowered slightly, showing respect, as if they were sending them off.

After all these corpse rats had climbed down the platform, and they could no longer be seen standing on the platform, the group opposite Xie Lin and the others raised their heads, but many of them let out a sigh of relief, as if they relaxed a little. , it seems that they were all a little nervous just now.

Xie Lin and the others were very close to the coffin, and they could also see that the 'people' in the coffin had been eaten by those corpse rats, leaving only a white skeleton, the skin and flesh on it were almost eaten clean, The skeleton remained very intact, with almost no damage, and only a lot of small bite marks on it. It seemed that although the corpse rats ate fast, they were also delicate. It seemed that they didn't like to eat human bones.

And now Xie Lin was finally able to confirm that the strange skeletons they had seen before were apparently eaten up by corpse rats, leaving only a solitary skeleton.

While Xie Lin was thinking deeply, the men on the opposite side seemed a little impatient, and several of them started talking, and the guns in their hands creaked, looking menacing.

The three of Xie Lin looked at each other, then Ba Xiaolan forced a smile and said, "Everyone, can you speak Mandarin? We don't understand what you just said."

As soon as Ba Xiaolan said, those people were startled, showing a look of bewilderment and surprise, and then whispered to each other again, as if they were discussing something.

After a while, they finally calmed down, but then, the group of men in front retreated a few steps to the two sides, while an old lady with gray hair and slightly stooped body slowly walked up behind.

"Are the guests from outside?" the old lady said, but she spoke Mandarin.Although the Mandarin is a bit blunt and not very standard, it is not difficult for Xie Lin and the others to understand.

The old lady was leaning on a shoulder-high cane, her clothes were clean, and there were a lot of silver ornaments hanging on her body, and her expression was quite majestic.

The three of Xie Lin looked at each other, except for Zhang Lang who was a little surprised, Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan couldn't help being overjoyed.

"Yes, old man, we are from outside." Ba Xiaolan nodded and said respectfully.

A strange look flashed across the old lady's face, and she quickly regained her composure: "What are you doing here?"

Ba Xiaolan glanced at Xie Lin, and then said: "We are here to find someone."

"Looking for someone?" The old lady frowned slightly with a look of doubt on her face, "Who are you looking for here?"

"We're here to find a girl named Yang Yun." Ba Xiaolan said.

"Yang Yun?!" The old lady was startled, looking very surprised, then shook her head, "We don't have anyone with that name here."

After hearing what the old lady said, Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan didn't have too many surprises, but Zhang Lang couldn't help being very disappointed.

"Is it true that Ah Yun is not from here?" He lowered his head and murmured, with a look of disappointment and pain.

A strange look flashed across the old lady's face again, she looked at Zhang Lang fixedly, and then she shook her head again: "No one in our place knows such a name, the guests must have found the wrong place. "

She paused, then looked at Xie Lin and the others thoughtfully, then smiled slightly and said: "A few guests have come from afar, we are in a poor...remote area, and there is nothing to entertain you, please You drink saliva, what is disrespectful, I hope you will not be offended."

After speaking, she turned her head and said a few words to a man behind her.

The man nodded immediately, took off a leather bag hanging from his waist, and then held the leather bag in both hands, came to Xie Lin, and handed the leather bag to Xie Lin.

The three of Xie Lin couldn't help but change their expressions.

Schelling didn't pick up the leather bag either.

Because the old woman's rhetoric is too similar to the middle-aged man who insisted on them drinking water, but actually wanted to use Gu medicine to erase their memory of the canyon. It is also the same Gu medicine that can erase memory.

Ba Xiaolan forced a smile again, shook her hand and said, "You are welcome, old man, but we are not thirsty, so you should put away this water."

When the man handed the leather bag to Xie Lin, the people facing Xie Lin and the others, including the old woman, had complicated complexions, and there was also a hint of anticipation.As for Ba Xiaolan's words, all the faces of the people opposite except for the children changed. The old lady's eyes flashed, and her right hand clenched the crutch tightly, while those men's hands The muzzles of the guns were also raised, pointing at Schelling and the others.

But the old lady turned her head and said something to those men.The men were startled, then lowered their guns again.

The old lady still looked very calm, and said with a friendly smile: "Since a few guests don't want to drink, it's fine. If you want to come, you don't know the customs here. Whenever we have guests here, we have to give them a drink first." A bowl of clear water is a welcome sign, and the guests have to drink this bowl of water to express their respect and gratitude to the host, hehehe, a few guests don’t know this custom when they come here, we..."

It's just that the three of Xie Lin were silent and didn't express anything.

The old lady's complexion gradually darkened, and as she spoke, her voice gradually lowered, and then she stopped suddenly and did not continue speaking.

She snorted suddenly, her face turned cold, and she stared at Xie Lin and the others: "Who the hell are you? Why did you come to us?!"

For the old lady's sudden change of face, although Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan were a little surprised, they were not too surprised.They knew that the customs that the old lady mentioned were obviously deceiving them. She brought up the so-called customs and said that the host welcomed the guests, and the guests respected and thanked the host. The water in the leather bag, if Xie Lin and the others had just come here, they might really feel sorry and would drink the water in the leather bag, but now they know that people here don’t welcome outsiders at all, and this leather bag The water in the bag is obviously not simple water, but a poison that can erase memories.

That's why they kept silent.

And the reason why the old lady suddenly changed her face was obviously because Xie Lin and the others noticed something abnormal in their reaction.

However, although Xie Lin and Ba Xiaolan looked calm, they secretly groaned in their hearts. The people here seem to have hot tempers, just like those corpse rats, and they have nothing to say. They are very hostile to outsiders. This old man Too superficially he seems very kind and kind, but he is definitely a cruel person who makes them drink the water in the leather bag as soon as they meet.

Zhang Lang has also learned to behave now. Although he really wanted to scold the old lady a few words, he still held back and kept silent.
