Chapter 376 A Weird Village, Villagers Kneeling Before The Mountain

"Um?"

Xu Ye was surprised and looked at Professor Lu Bode, "Have you ever been to Songfeng Mountain?"

Lu Bod nodded: "That's right."

His expression became quite serious, "Unfortunately, I found signs of the possible appearance of Juebao among the many traces on the mountain."

"But no matter how hard I searched, I couldn't find any clues or treasure."

"After I reported the matter to the government, the government also sent several assistants to investigate, but they found nothing."

"Finally, I came to the conclusion: Someone might have arrived early and taken away the treasure on the mountain in advance."

Xu Ye's expression became slightly solemn.

Lubold came to the same conclusion.

"I promised that boy Fang Tianyu that I would help you with the search." Lu Bode continued, "So I want to tell you what I know in advance."

"Of course, my original investigation may be biased, so I will do my best to search with you."

"Then please leave it to Professor." Xu Ye nodded to express his gratitude.

Since Songfeng Village is located outside Heicheng, there is a distance of dozens of kilometers and bumpy mountain roads.

Soon, several people in the car felt drowsy and fell asleep.

Lele's head rested on An Lan's body, and she drooled while sleeping, but she still held her two dolls tightly in her arms.

I don't know how long it took, Xu Yeyou woke up, looked at the barren ground on both sides and the mountains everywhere, and couldn't help but yawn.

"What, are we here?" His yawn woke up Professor Lubold who was also asleep.

The professor rubbed his eyes and opened them, looking exhausted.

"Don't worry, we are almost at the entrance of the village. In ten minutes, we should be able to take you into the village."

The driver heard the conversation between the two and turned his head slightly and shouted.

Xu Ye glanced out the window, but was suddenly attracted by several figures.

"what is that……"

He murmured, immediately attracting the attention of everyone in the car.

An Lan opened her eyes expressionlessly and looked out.

But on the wasteland in the distance, several villagers dressed in simple clothes were kneeling on the ground with enthusiasm on their faces, kowtowing to the front.

"Who are they worshiping?" The professor looked in the direction they were worshiping, but saw nothing.

For a moment, a gloomy feeling came over me.

Could it be that these villagers are worshiping something they cannot see?

"Are they worshiping...the mountain peak?" Xu Ye was not so superstitious and just looked ahead.

The direction these villagers were worshiping happened to be a towering mountain peak.

If he guessed correctly, the peak in front of him was exactly one of his goals this time - Songfeng Mountain.

"Strange..." The professor was puzzled, "I have never heard that Songfeng Village has the habit of worshiping the mountain god."

"When I came here three months ago, nothing like this happened!"

Xu Ye frowned slightly, feeling a strange and uneasy feeling inexplicably.

For many civilians, worshiping mountains and rivers is a kind of prayer, hoping that their efforts will be recognized and rewarded.

But for most people in the Dragon Kingdom.

Praying to God and worshiping Buddha is more of a spiritual comfort and contains their very simple wishes.

But he has never seen someone show such a fanatical expression when worshiping mountains and rivers!

The expressions of those villagers were like those of some kind of brainwashed cult believers, full of weirdness and horror.

Before coming here, he also investigated the files and information in Songfeng Village.

But those documents never mentioned that they had any special beliefs.

Is it really what the professor said?

Was this strange belief only formed within these three months?

Suppressing the confusion in his heart, the vehicle continued to move forward.

As we go deeper into the village, more and more villagers kneel down and worship the peaks on both sides.

Only a few minutes away, Xu Ye and others saw at least twenty people kneeling and worshiping the mountain.

Each of them had exactly the same expression, filled with enthusiasm and joy, as if they were kneeling down to worship gods and Buddhas, full of piety.

It wasn't until the vehicle completely entered the village and saw the houses on both sides that the few people stopped seeing the strange scene.

"Okay, we're here!" The taxi driver stopped the car at the entrance of the village. "The road inside is narrow and it's difficult to turn around, so I stopped here."

Xu Ye nodded, paid the money, opened the door and got out of the car.

Only then did Lele wake up and turn around.

Her first reaction when she woke up was to check the doll in her arms.

After confirming that she was not dreaming, she showed a happy expression, followed An Lan out of the car, and looked at the village excitedly, "Xiao Zi will be very happy when he sees this!"

Songfeng Village is not a big village, and because many young people go to the Black City to work, there are only a few old people and children walking around in the whole village.

Although there are adults, most of them are in their forties or fifties, and most of them are women.

The taxi quickly turned around and left.

Several people entered Songfeng Village and immediately attracted the attention of the surrounding villagers.

The moment these villagers noticed these people, they immediately showed expressions of vigilance and repulsion.

But after seeing Lele, their expressions softened a bit.

Lele was not aware of these things at all. She excitedly hugged the doll in her arms and pulled An Lan's hand hard: "I...I will take you to sit at home!"

"Xiao Zi will be very happy to see you!"

An Lan looked at Xu Ye with a questioning look.

Xu Ye nodded, smiled and said, "Okay, we also want to meet your sister."

"Yeah!" Lele nodded vigorously, her red face full of smiles.

Then, she became familiar with the road and ran forward at a trot.

"Brother, uncle, hurry up!"

Lele ran ahead, leading a few people around the village, but did not appear to be lost at all.

Xu Ye looked at her movements and touched his chin thoughtfully.

This appearance really doesn't look like a disguise.

Does this mean that their meeting with Lele was just a coincidence?

About ten minutes later, under the guidance of Lele, several people finally arrived at a corner of the village.

Ahead is a dilapidated private house with a few scattered chickens in the yard.

Compared with other homes in the village, this residence could not be more crude.

"Xiaozi, mom, I'm back!!"

Lele didn't look embarrassed at all, she just ran into the yard excitedly and shouted loudly.

Under her shout, a pale-faced woman hurried out of the side room with a look of urgency on her face.

After seeing Lele, anger welled up in her eyes, and she rushed forward with her sleeves rolled up.

"Lele, where have you been? Do you want me to panic to death?!"
