Nightmare Apostle

Having said this, and at the same time in order for the mission to proceed smoothly, Yang Xiaochengcha had to take the initiative to agree to help. The head of the Du family thanked them profusely, but still very humanely advised them to go back and discuss it with others. After all, The stakes are high.

"Patriarch, don't worry. We have discussed it. Some people who don't want to stay will leave. The six of us will stay. From now on, Dujia Village will be our home." Yang Xiao took the head of the Du family by the hand. The hands, attitude and micro-expressions are extremely sincere.

"As long as you survive this disaster, you... you will be the great benefactor of my Du family village!" The head of the Du family's lips trembled with excitement, and he could not speak clearly.

"Cough...cough cough...:..." Speaking of excitement, the head of the Du family coughed violently. The next second, he immediately covered his mouth and at the same time took out some dark-brown squid from his pocket. something, quickly put it into your mouth and chew it.

This scene seemed familiar. The black man who brought them into the village before and many villagers had the habit of chewing this thing. Because the distance was closer this time, Yang Xiao could see a little more clearly. This thing looked like some kind of dried plant. The branches and leaves smelled very strong after being chewed, a strange herbal smell that Yang Xiao had never smelled before.

"Clan leader, are you sick?" Yang Xiao pretended to be concerned.

The clan leader waved his hands and showed a helpless expression, "It's an old problem among mountain people. When it's cloudy and rainy, the joints in the bones hurt. It's not a problem."

After saying this, the clan leader asked Yang Xiao and the others to rest first and tell them what to do later.

By the time Yang Xiaocheng returned to the front hall where he was eating, Tong Han, Sui Chengguo and four others had already left. Apparently someone had informed them. The remaining six Yang Xiaos were taken to a large and well-decorated room in the house to rest, leading the way. The woman in front of her is a woman in her early 20s. The clothes she wears are gray and old. She must be a maid in the family of the patriarch.

After questioning, the maid's name was Xiaozui. After settling Yang Xiao and the others, Xiaozui turned around and went out. After about a cup of tea, she brought back a copper incense burner on a tray. At this moment, something was burning in the incense burner, and it was still burning. White fragrant mist floats.

However, after Yang Xiao and others smelled the smell wafting from the incense burner, they all frowned. The smell was very strong.

It was even a little pungent, just like the medicinal herbs that the Du family chief and the villagers chewed.

Placing the incense burner in a prominent place in the room, Xiaozui explained: "This is specially prepared for you by the clan leader.

The patriarch has a kind heart, but there is a lot of gloom in the mountains. He is worried that you foreigners will not be able to endure it. "

Since it was the clan leader's kindness, they couldn't refuse it. Yang Xiao asked if he could let them go for a walk.

By the way, he wanted to familiarize himself with the environment of the village, but Xiaozui shook his head and refused, saying that the clan leader had already given instructions to allow distinguished guests like them to have a good rest.

"Are there any outsiders left in the village besides us?" Yang Xiao asked, "We want to find someone to talk to."

"No more." Xiaozui sighed, thinking that he knew the crisis the village was facing now.

"What is burning here?" Cheng Cha pretended to be curious and walked closer to the incense burner to observe. "It is a kind of medicinal herb that grows near the village. It can activate blood circulation and refresh the mind. Many people in the village chew it. "It's refreshing." Xiao Zui explained, "The clan leader knew that you foreigners couldn't get used to the taste, so he asked me to get some and smoke it in the room to drive away the cold."

Yang Xiao smiled and said: "Forget the clan leader, in fact we are all rough people, we are satisfied if we have food to eat.

Not that subtle. "

"It's very cold in the mountains. There are some thick clothes in the cupboard. Please put them on quickly. Your clan leader won't let me go easily if I get cold." Xiaozui demanded stubbornly.

Since arriving in Dujia Village, Yang Xiao has discovered several very strange phenomena. The first is that these people often chew strong-flavored herbs. Also, these people seem to be very afraid of the cold. They all wear thick clothes. It almost covered the whole body, with only one head exposed.

Compared with them, the tattered clothes of Yang Xiao and others could only barely cover their bodies, but even so, they didn't feel much cold in the mountains last night.

The tension last night suddenly relaxed, and waves of drowsiness came over. Yang Xiao and others changed shifts to rest. After all, tonight was the highlight.

The weather is not very good, and the sky in the mountains rarely seems to be clear and sunny. It is always groggy, as if it is going to rain.

This weather is perfect for sleeping.

I don’t know how long it took, but Yang Xiao, who had been sleeping in a daze, was suddenly woken up by someone, saying that another group of people was back. Yang Xiao immediately got up and before he could reach the door, he saw Tong Han, Sui Chengguo and his party covered in mud. Go here.

One, two, three, four... ... ． Seeing that all four people were back and there was no reduction in personnel, Yang Xiao was relieved a little.

But he saw that Tong Han, who was walking at the front, had a bad expression on his face, and the expressions of the others were not very good either. They seemed to be in some kind of trouble.

"What's going on?" Cheng Cha was even more anxious than Yang Xiao and asked first.

Sui Chengguo took a few gulps of tea, his expression anxious and angry, "What the hell, we're lost."

"Lost? Didn't find Bujia Village?"

"No, we followed the direction pointed by the villagers and walked north out of the village. But somehow, we actually walked back, and... and we actually walked back from the road we entered the village this morning. , the direction is all messed up." Lu Youcheng, who was traveling with him, also complained.

The road they took to enter the village this morning was in completely different directions from the road Tong Han and his team took to leave. Even if they got lost, they would not have to go around in circles. "Did you encounter a fork in the road?" Yang Xiao was making the final confirmation.

"No, the mountain road is just a little muddy and difficult to walk on, but there is no fork in the road. We walked very carefully." Tong Han said.

Cheng Cha seemed to have suddenly thought of something, and frowned slightly: "Are you the only ones on the road? Didn't the village send someone to lead the way for you?"

"No, I asked, but no one dared. They said there are monsters in the mountains." Tong Han replied.

"Ghost wall." Yang Xiao took a deep breath.

"Well, this is the only explanation. The road out of the village is blocked by ghosts. Once you come in, you can never get out again." Tong Han lowered his voice unnaturally.

Everyone present fell into deep thought, and Yang Xiao understood a little. No wonder the head of the Du family pretended to be righteous and let them leave right from the start. He knew from the beginning that once they entered the village, they would never be able to leave again.

If they want to leave, they have to cooperate with the people of Dujia Village and get rid of this ghost that snatches human bodies.

This is a trap.
