The cliff was not extremely high, probably only about the height of a six or seven-story building, but what was scary was the river carrying mud and sand below.
“Plop!”
“Plop!”
Zhou Ze and Lawyer An fell into the water together.
Then it was swept directly downstream by the turbulent river.
Bai Yingying, who was standing on the shore, suddenly woke up from her emotion.
Whispered:
"Boss... why would you rather die with Lao An...
And I don't want to...
Oh! Oh!
Boss, you big pig hoof! "
… …
After floating up and down in the turbid water several times and not knowing how far he had been washed away, Lawyer An surfaced again and breathed a sigh of relief. The terrible, gloomy wind seemed to have stopped.
Although there is still fog all around, it won't be a big problem as long as the damn wind stops.
"Bang!"
Lawyer An felt like he was bumped into. When he turned around, he discovered that it was his boss who was rushed towards him.
It's really fate.
This has not been dispersed,
It would be so satisfying if you didn't know where to go and drowned.
Lawyer An thought a little angrily, but still reached out and grabbed Zhou Ze's shoulders, and swam towards the shore with Zhou Ze.
If Zhou Ze hadn't pulled him back before, he wouldn't have fallen down.
"Boss, boss?"
Swimming while dragging someone is really a chore. Lawyer An only felt a pain in his arms and chest, but Zhou Ze seemed to have choked on water and fainted. He had no response at all when he was called.
Fortunately,
This is no longer the area with the most turbulent water flow. Although the water force is still strong, it is still bearable.
Lawyer An encouraged himself as he moved closer to the shore.
Just then,
Lawyer An saw from the corner of his eye that a piece of driftwood with a sharp tip was rushing straight towards him not far upstream.
Not to mention the damage from being stabbed, even being hit by such a thick piece of driftwood due to the inertia of the water may cause you to break a few bones.
Lawyer An pushed Zhou Ze hard towards the shore, and used the force to move backwards.
Fumu passed between lawyer Zi'an and Zhou Ze without causing any danger.
Just as Lawyer An was about to swim forward again to rescue his boss,
But he saw Zhou Ze swimming by himself.
And looking at that posture,
He is better at swimming than me!
“… …” Lawyer An.
Zhou Zexian went ashore and sat on the shore with a hillside above his head.
Lawyer An also came ashore later. He did not ask Zhou Ze whether he was pretending to be unconscious or was really unconscious. Instead, he took off his coat and took out some things from it.
“The phone doesn’t work.”
Lawyer An said helplessly.
Although cell phones were basically out of order in the heavy fog, the problem now was that if the fog cleared and there was no cell phone contact, it would be difficult for the two of them to get out of this remote mountain village.
Zhou Ze leaned his head on the sand and said, "There should be a road ahead. We can find a populated area if we walk along the road."
Lawyer An raised his head and took a look, and found that there was indeed a road uphill.
People who have traveled to or lived in mountainous areas should have the experience that villages and towns tend to gather near roads, which is a bit like how people in ancient times lived near rivers.
The two rested for a while and did not delay here any longer. They climbed up the slope together, chose a direction, and started walking along the road.
Two men walked side by side.
My body is still wet.
There was also mud and sand and gravel, which looked like workers who had just got off work at a brick factory.
If you add two guitars, you can directly cosplay as "Xu Ri Yang Gang".
In fact, Zhou Ze also thought about not leaving, finding a place to lie down and rest, waiting for the fog to dissipate, but after being baptized by the cold wind, Zhou Ze suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
In the thick fog, even if you just stand by and watch, you won't be able to get through it safely.
I drove before and now I walk.
Zhou Ze didn't see a single pedestrian or a single car passing by him.
This is a provincial road!
Even on the most remote provincial roads, there are still a lot of vehicles.
In the thick fog, it felt like a pair of eyes were staring at him. Zhou Ze couldn't tell in which direction, but the feeling was very uncomfortable.
At this time, the most important thing is to try to find Yingying and Laodao and the others. They are now separated from the two of them, and Zhou Ze is not very reassured.
"Boss, look, there looks like a village ahead."
Lawyer An pointed ahead and shouted,
at the same time,
Lawyer An bent down and began to breathe heavily.
He was really exhausted from dragging Zhou Ze to swim in the turbulent river. A short rest didn't help him at all, and now he still has back pain.
Zhou Ze looked over and, sure enough, the shadow of a roof appeared in the fog ahead. It should be a village.
"Let's go, we can see the village." Zhou Ze urged.
Lawyer An reached out and grabbed Zhou Ze's arm, swallowed his saliva, and said:
"Boss, heavy fog, deep mountains, and we encountered a village. The plot is too smooth. I think this village is likely to be from hundreds or even thousands of years ago. There is something wrong."
It's like a ghost ship. Those ships that are said to have disappeared or been silent for hundreds of years sometimes suddenly appear on the sea and can be seen from afar.
"No, it should be the current village." Zhou Ze retorted directly.
"Are you so sure?" Lawyer An was a little unconvinced.
“Look at this.”
Zhou Ze pointed behind him.
There is a cliff on one side of the provincial road.
On the other side is a cliff.
However, in order to consolidate the mountain and prevent landslides and falling rocks, it is generally built with cement.
Lawyer An walked over and approached the cement wall, and found bright red words written on it:
"Prosperity, democracy, civilization, harmony..."
There is another line of text below:
“Fight and win this battle against poverty!”
“… …” Lawyer An.
"Really?" Zhou Ze asked.
Lawyer An nodded.
Next,
The two of them walked towards the village.
After walking for a few minutes on a fork in the provincial road, you will reach the village entrance.
There are many bungalows in the village, but there are also some two- and three-story houses. It is by no means a so-called deserted village but a normal village.
only,
In this village,
Not a single person.
I walked all the way in from the village entrance, but didn't meet anyone. The doors of the houses on both sides were tightly closed.
The whole village was filled with deathly silence.
Zhou Ze walked to the door of a house and pushed it open. The door was closed but not locked.
There was no dust on the furnishings inside, as if someone had always lived there. There was even some cut fruit on the table in the living room.
Lawyer An came out of the kitchen, took a glass of water and walked out while drinking it, and said to Zhou Ze:
“There’s a water dispenser inside.”
Zhou Ze was not thirsty, he was just wondering where all the people in this village had gone.
Ever since the fog started to rise, Zhou Ze felt that his surroundings had suddenly become strange.
First there was the cold wind, and then there was the deathly silent village.
Zhou Ze sat down on the sofa.
"I'll go up and take a look."
Lawyer An went upstairs with the water. After a while, he came down and shouted to Zhou Ze:
"Boss, come up and have a look. There are Easter eggs."
Zhou Ze stood up and followed Lawyer An upstairs.
In a bedroom on the second floor,
A family of five,
It should be a configuration of children, parents, and grandparents.
They were all hanged there.
Five people,
They all stuck out their tongues and stared with their eyes wide open.
The standard image of hanging.
"It wasn't suicide. There was no chair underneath," said Lawyer An.
If it was suicide, he should have stepped on a chair to get up, but there was no chair underneath.
He must have killed him.
But who killed him
Lawyer An took another sip of water, put the empty cup aside, and said, "Do you think that all the people in this village will..."
All dead
They were all hanged like this
"Let's look in another room." Zhou Ze said.
The two immediately left the two-story house and went to the next door, which was a bungalow. After pushing open the door and going in, they saw an elderly couple who had also hanged themselves on the beams.
Next, he walked into a few more houses and saw people hanging inside.
seem,
The whole village,
They all became "hanged ghosts".
Zhou Ze found a pack of "Da Qianmen" in one of the rooms.
He and Lawyer An each smoked one cigarette.
If ordinary tourists or expedition teams came to this village at this time and saw these scenes, they would probably be scared silly and panic. If they managed to escape by luck,
This is another legend of "Fengmen Village".
Moreover, compared to the mostly groundless stories in "Fengmen Village", things here are more direct and terrifying.
But Zhou Ze and Lawyer An are both veteran actors.
This scene is certainly very strange.
But the two of them were able to remain calm.
After all, I have seen many dead people.
devil,
You will see more.
Although the two felt somewhat uncomfortable and depressed, they were not frightened to the point of losing their composure.
at last,
The two entered a three-story house. The family was well off. Although the village had a power outage, there was still some cold air left in the refrigerator. Lawyer An took out two bottles of iced drinks and gave one to Zhou Ze.
On their heads,
There were two young girls hanged there.
The two of them are no longer surprised.
"Boss, do you think Lin Ke killed him?"
"It shouldn't be that serious. She must be aware of the consequences of killing everyone in the village."
"She's not a child." Lawyer An counted on his fingers and said, "According to her age, she is almost in menopause now.
Women in menopause,
was abducted,
Angry,
What can’t be done?”
Zhou Ze was silent.
Because he suddenly felt that what Lawyer An said seemed to make some sense.
"Yeah, that makes sense."
Lawyer An shrugged at Zhou Ze.
Then he smiled and took a sip of iced cola.
Lift your head,
I found that the two girls hanging above my head were smiling at me.
"Yo,
You also think it makes sense.”
