Chapter Nineteen: The Weird Village
The jeep was driving on the muddy mountain road, with thunder rumbling around and the sky became gloomy.
At this time, the mountain roads were already covered with mud, and the mud and water had become a tiny stream on the road.
In about ten minutes, the jeep Su Bai was riding caught up with the jeep in front.
At this time, the jeep in front seemed to be afraid of something, and the speed gradually slowed down.
"Ah..." The lynx moaning sounds of the girl in the deputy seat kept coming from around.
Su Bai listened, judging the distance in his heart, and was shocked to find that the jeep was driving for so long, but the 'bobcat' sound was never far or near.
That thing is following the car!
Thinking of this, Su Bai already understood in his heart that this thing that made the sound of "Cat Meows" is definitely not the so-called bobcat.
After all, ordinary animals can't follow the car.
Su Bai looked at the other three people in the car and found that their faces became alert for some reason.
"Ah!!!" At this moment, the cry suddenly became louder, and seemed to be a little angry.
Then, the crying was gradually pulled behind by the jeep.
"Damn, this 'bobcat' is a bit fierce!" It was at this time that Zheng Yu, in the front row, spoke with a tone full of gratitude.
"If you hadn't had your mouth so broken, how could that thing come up?" the middle-aged man said speechlessly.
"Hey, how could I know this thing be nearby? But will we deal with him sooner or later?" Zheng Yu's tone was slightly weak when he heard this.
"Not now." The girl in front said calmly.
Listening to their words, Su Bai's brows gradually frowned, and he began to recall what Zheng Yu and others said just now.
The middle-aged man said that Zheng Yu was attracted by the thing by his mouth.
However, he felt that Zheng Yu didn't say anything just now, at most he just had some jokes.
Except...that story.
Could it be that there is really a pig who eats the child?
Did that sound come from a pig?
Thinking of that scene, Su Bai felt something indescribable in his heart.
Just like... he saw Zhu Yingying killing the night before yesterday.
Absurd, and frightened.
Are there any resurrections?
Su Bai took a light breath.
"Little brother, it's nothing, just a wild beast." It was at this time that the middle-aged man next to him seemed to find Su Bai's face wrong and couldn't help but comfort him.
Su Bai nodded and looked at the dark forest outside, as if he felt something in the forest was looking at him.
He closed his eyes slightly and recalled Zhu Yingying's memory in his mind.
However, in Zhu Yingying's memory, she has come here for only a few times, and she has never heard of such strange things.
It also made him lose his plan to find useful information from Zhu Yingying's memory.
He sighed softly in his heart, and Su Bai continued to look out the window. At this time, the rain in the sky was getting heavier and heavier.
It was originally the afternoon weather, but it was like evening.
Two jeeps continued to walk through the mountains.
The rain gradually stopped.
Along the way, Su Bai also saw some animals such as hares, pheasants, and muntjacs.
The wild resources here can be said to be very rich, and the middle-aged man next to him even joked about getting wild game to eat.
At six or seven o'clock in the evening, two jeeps finally drove into the mountain village.
Next to the mountain village here are full of continuous rice fields.
At this time, the rice in these rice fields has some yellow color and it will probably not take long to mature.
The jeep turned on the main road and drove along the small path next to the rice fields towards the mountain village.
When the two cars drove into the mountain village, many of the people in the mountain village walked out of their houses, and they seemed very curious about the guests who came in a hurry.
Then, the two cars parked in the open space in the village.
A girl in her twenties and an old man in her 60s walked down the jeep in front.
Su Bai and others also got off the car.
"Are you the leaders who were notified by the town before? I am the village chief of Kawazawa Village. Welcome the leader to our village." At this time, a dark-skinned old man walked up to the 60-year-old man, held his hand, and said excitedly.
The old man in front was shook his hand by the village chief, shook his head slightly, and pointed at the girl behind with a smile and said, "I am not a leader, that is our leader."
The village chief looked back along the old man's finger and saw a girl of seventeen or eighteen years old.
"Hello, my name is Chu Hongyue, I have been here to accept the above mission." Chu Hongyue nodded and said calmly.
The village head was initially concerned about Chu Hongyue's age, but seeing her steady appearance, the doubts in her heart dissipated a little.
"Sorry, I admit my mistake." The village chief showed an apology to Chu Hongyue, and then said, "You guys have been on the way for a long time. Come to my house for a rest."
After saying that, he led the way.
Chu Hongyue walked in front and followed with everyone.
Su Bai stood behind, with a slightly hesitant expression. After all, he was not from this team, and he didn't know if he should keep up.
"Hey." It was at this moment that a female voice came.
Su Bai Xunsheng looked over and saw the girl in her twenties coming over and looking at him speechlessly.
"What's wrong with you? I've been splashed with mud in you. You don't know how to go back and come to the mountain." The girl frowned and said.
Hearing her words, Su Bai's brows also frowned.
Did this girl do it on purpose when she drove a jeep and splashed him all over mud?
"Ning Xuan." But at this moment, Chu Hongyue in front turned her head and called out to the girl.
"Tsk, it's boring." Ning Xuan shrugged when she heard Chu Hongyue's voice, and followed the team.
"That..." It was at this moment that Chu Hongyue looked at Su Bai with a hesitant look on her face.
Seeing her expression, Su Bai immediately said, "You guys talk about it first. I'll go see my friend's child first."
"Well, okay, you'll come back early." Chu Hongyue nodded and followed the village chief with her.
Su Bai looked at the departure of everyone and pondered slightly in his heart.
It was obviously something happened here, otherwise, Chu Hongyue and the others would not be able to say anything about tasks when they were talking.
But then, Su Bai looked around and found that everyone here was normal, and it didn't seem like something was wrong.
"Young man." It was at this moment that the old man who was walking at the end of the team suddenly stopped and walked towards Su Bai, with an apology expression on his face: "I'm sorry for what happened today. Ning Xuan was rude and drove to dirty your clothes."
"It's okay, in fact, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't know if I could go up the mountain tonight." Su Bai said hurriedly.
"Oh." The old man suddenly sighed when he heard his words, then hesitated and said, "This mountain is not very safe, you have to be careful."
When Su Bai heard this, he wanted to ask, but the old man seemed to know what he was going to ask, so he waved his hand, turned around, and followed the team.
