Chapter 752 Night Visitors

Sun Zikong hurriedly said, "Master, are you saying that everyone in this village has left because you saw those dogs hanging on the trees?"

Chu Huan said: "It's not entirely certain, but it must be some connection."

Ma Zheng frowned and said, "Sir, what kind of person would hang those dog corpses?" As soon as he finished speaking, Sun Zikong had already said, "Old Ma, do you think it was hanged by people?"

Ma Zheng is not very old, but he is two years older than his grandson Kong. Sun Zi Kong usually calls him old Ma.

"Isn't it someone who hung up?" Ma Zhengqi said.

Sun Zikong smiled bitterly and said, "Look at the branch, it looks a bit unsupported. Not to mention that it can hold up a person. If it is a person hanging up, just climb up a little, and the weight of the people and dogs add up, the branch will definitely break immediately. Look, the tree is not short. If it really falls off such a high ground, I will definitely die."

Chu Huan said: "It's not something that people hang on. Do you think it's something that hangs on?"

Sun Zikong shivered, hesitated for a moment, and finally whispered: "I'm afraid... it's ghosts." As soon as he said that, Ma Zheng and Liu Suifeng also changed color slightly, and they couldn't help looking out the window. Sun Zikong himself also felt a chill rising from his body. In this deserted village, everything was quiet, not tranquility, but dead silence.

Chu Huan frowned and said, "Don't talk nonsense." He leaned against the base of the wall and said, "Eat some dry food first, and then take a break early."

At this moment, Chu Huan frowned, picked up the water bag and poured the water in the bag onto the fire. Everyone was surprised. Chu Huan had already thrown the fire out in a few seconds. Sun Zikong couldn't help but say, "Master, what's wrong?"

"Someone is coming." Chu Huan said in a deep voice, "There is a sound of horse hooves, listen."

Sun Zikong and others held their breath. Soon, they faintly heard a rapid sound of horse hooves coming from the south of the village. The sound became clearer and clearer from far to near.

Sun Zikong and others immediately admired Chu Huan even more. Chu Huan seemed to be talking to him, but he never relaxed his vigilance. The sound of horse hooves was very far away, so Chu Huan could quickly discover that his vigilance was beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"Where are the horses?" Chu Huan asked in a low voice.

"Behind the house." Sun Zikong said in a low voice: "There are two big trees there and firewood piles, and we tie the horses there."

"Be careful." Chu Huan lowered his voice, was silent for a while, and finally said: "There is only one person."

Sun Zikong was a little nervous, but when he heard Chu Huan say that there was only one person, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. There were four people on his side and only one person on the other side. Even if he was an opponent, he would be more than enough to fight against one with four.

Chu Huan flashed to the window. The house they chose was facing the entrance of the village. For the sake of easy observation, through the window, he faintly saw a fast horse rushing into the village. When he entered the village, he stopped moving and suddenly returned to silence. Sun Zikong and others held the hilt tightly, motionless, and watched the changes.

In just a moment, the man's horse began to move forward again, walking very slowly, as if he was also observing the scene in the village. He walked past Chu Huan's room, wearing a hat and a cloak, and could not see the person's appearance for a while.

Chu Huan knew in his heart that although this man was also a passerby, he had already seen the silence and depression in the village, but he still dared to come to this ghostly village. It can be seen that his courage is really great. As the saying goes, he is good, good at art and brave. If he has such courage, he must have some tricks under his command.

Sun Zikong and others did not dare to act rashly without Chu Huan's instructions. Seeing that the man passed by the house, the few people were still silent. Soon Chu Huan saw the man stop in front of a house diagonally opposite, got off the horse, then tied the horse to the fence in front of the house, and then entered the dark room.

At this time, the distance was far away, and Sun Zikong touched Chu Huan and whispered: "Master, this man is so brave. Who is his origin?"

Chu Huan didn't look at him, but thought for a while before saying, "Wait for a moment, let's sneak over to see where this person comes from." Thinking of the strange and strange village, the other party suddenly appeared here in the middle of the night, but he didn't know if this person was involved in this matter.

I thought the other party would light a fire soon, but when the room was dark as dark as ink, Sun Zikong couldn't help it and lowered his voice: "Master, let's touch it now. Can't the four of us do anything to him alone?"

Chu Huan thought it was not unreasonable. It would be dawn for several hours. There was no one person coming. He would keep going like this. He immediately held the hilt of the knife tightly and did not come out of the front door. He led the three of them to the back door and quietly out. Fortunately, the horses seemed a little tired, resting lazily, and did not say anything. Chu Huan whispered a few words, then he walked around the room and touched the room.

Chu Huan didn't know the man's background and did not open it all. Two people came closer from both sides of the house. He and Sun Zikong slowly approached from the left and touched the door. They saw that the door was closed and they were close inside and listened. There was no movement in the room. Sun Zikong had already poked out two fingers, pressed on the door, and pressed it hard. Unexpectedly, the door was not bolted. When he pressed it, half of the door made a slight "creaking" sound. Sun Zikong hurriedly stopped, and at this moment, he heard a "bang". Sun Zikong immediately heard Chu Huan's shout: "Be careful!" His body felt that it was pulled by force and had been pulled aside.

Sun Zikong was shocked to see that a door in the room had already flew out. The loud noise just now was obviously the man inside noticed the movement and kicked the door. If he hadn't been pulled open in time, the door would have hit him, and at least he would have suffered some minor injuries.

After Chu Huan pulled Sun Zikong over, he felt a shadow in the room had erupted out at a very fast speed, and rushed towards him. Chu Huan pushed Sun Zikong away, and the blood-drinking knife in his hand had already met. The man was also a long thing in his hand, as if it was a weapon. He smashed Chu Huan down on Chu Huan in the air. Chu Huan didn't know the background of the other party, and it was not easy to make a heavy hand. He waved the back of the knife to meet him. With a "choke", Chu Huan felt that his tiger's mouth was slightly shaking, and the other party's strength was really not small.

At this moment, he had already seen the opponent's weapons clearly. In fact, the opponent's weapons had not been revealed yet, but were wrapped in coarse numbness, and the weapons were in coarse numbness.

When Chu Huan saw this scene, he kicked his feet, jumped back, opened the distance, and said in a deep voice: "It's not an enemy, don't take action!"

The man was about to follow, but when he heard Chu Huan's voice, he stopped abruptly and stopped. He was only four or five steps away from Chu Huan. Ma Zheng and the others had already rushed over, but when they heard Chu Huan's shout, they did not dare to take action.

"It's you?" The other party was the first to make a sound of surprise.

Chu Huan took back the knife and said, "It turns out it's brother, it's really a misunderstanding."

Chu Huan had already seen that the other party was a man in the gray robe who appeared in Yun Dali's inn a few days ago. The man was wearing a gray robe that day, but today he was wearing a straw hat and a cloak.

The man lifted up his hat slightly, and in the dark, his face covered with a mask was revealed. In this dead and deserted village, it was really terrifying.

"Who are you?" After pondering for a while, the man finally said coldly: "Why is this happening in this village?"

Chu Huan shook his head and sighed: "It's not important to who we are, we shouldn't be your enemy. If this is the case in this village, this is also a question we really want to know?"

"Oh?" the man sneered: "In such a huge village, there are no people and no traces. Only you are here. Does it have nothing to do with you?"

Chu Huan put his knife into the sheath and said, "We are just a moment earlier than you. But I can understand your question. If we are a moment later and see that you are the only one in the village, I think I may have asked the same question." He looked up at the sky. There was no moon tonight, and the sky was dark. Then he said, "It's already very late, so I won't disturb you much." He turned around and was about to leave.

"This is the third place!" Chu Huan didn't take a few steps, and the man suddenly said strangely.

Chu Huan stopped at his feet, turned around, frowned and asked, "What did you say?"

"This is the third such village." The man said slowly: "Before this, I have seen two such villages. The situation is almost the same. There is no one in the entire village."

Chu Huan's brows were tighter, "Your Excellency means that the same thing happened in other villages."

The man nodded, "And these three villages have the same situation. Their locations are quite remote and far from the urban area. Just in this village, there are no other villages within a radius of more than ten miles."

Chu Huan said "Oh" and asked, "When you entered the village, it was already dark, and you shouldn't see the scene outside the village."

The man smiled faintly and said, "Are you talking about the corpse hanging on the branches?"

Chu Huanxin was surprised. Could it be that this person could still find the dog corpse on the treetops in such a late night? Then this person's eyesight was really terrifying.

The other party shook his head and said, "I didn't see the body outside this village, but in another village, I saw the same scene. On the big tree next to the village, three dogs were pierced through their bodies and died!"

Chu Huan said: "Why are you sure you died after being pierced through your body?"

"I've checked it," said the man. "I went up a tree to cut off the branches and carefully examined the dog's corpses. They had no other fatalities except the wounds penetrated by the trunks, and there was no sign of poisoning in their bodies."

Sun Zikong couldn't help but say, "Then have you found out who killed those dogs with such a cruel method?"

"The purpose is not to kill dogs, but to scare people." The man said lightly: "If anyone killed them... According to the people here, they are ghosts, and these dead dogs are all harmed by ghosts!"

He was wearing a mask, and the gloomy village was dead, and suddenly he said the word "ghost". The cold wind blew, making people feel even colder.
