"My mother had a minor illness, but was delayed by the doctor in the village, and finally passed away. Because of this, my father decided to go out and take me out of the mountain village."
"Is there anyone else who also left?" Ye Chui thought of something and asked Yu Xue.
Yu Xue shook his head: "I can't remember these clearly. After all, I was only five years old at the time, but... I seem to have the impression that when my father took me away, he originally made an agreement with some other villagers.
I went out to explore, but the few people I had agreed to follow my father down the mountain suddenly changed their minds when they reached the foot of the mountain, and then went back to the mountain regardless of my father's dissuasion... I can remember this thing because I was there
In the first few years after I left, my father would often nag those people for not having the guts."
"You want to leave, but suddenly change your mind when you reach the foot of the mountain?"
Ye Chui frowned.
In the eyes of other people, this may seem like nothing. Maybe it's just that the people in the mountain village are not determined and dare not venture outside, so they change their minds temporarily.
But Ye Chui didn't think it was like this.
"This mountain village suddenly appeared three hundred years ago. It should have been built by the ancestors of the Yu family. They lived in seclusion in the mountains and forests, saying that they were waiting for the recovery of spiritual energy. But why did they live in seclusion in the mountains and forests? According to Yu Xue, this Yu family is different from Yuxiang
The Cheng family in the town is different. They don’t have magic weapons and live in seclusion in the mountains and forests. They obviously have other intentions. And few people in this village go down the mountain to have contact with the outside world. Even if they originally planned to go down the mountain to wander outside, they suddenly
Changed their mind... They are obviously subject to some kind of restrictions that prevent them from leaving Xuezang Mountain! This mountain village is a bit strange."
An expression of interest appeared on Ye Chui's face. It seemed that this trip to the mountain village would be interesting.
At this moment, in the mountain village of Xuezang Mountain.
Although it was only four or five o'clock in the afternoon, it seemed dark here.
It seemed as if the entire mountain village was enveloped in a strange aura that made people feel chilly.
A group of villagers carrying woodcutter and hunting forks were walking in the forest.
They all looked gloomy, and their eyes looked around carefully and coldly, searching for this.
With a whooshing sound, a pheasant flew past them and fled for its life.
However, this group of mountain people ignored it, as if they had not seen the prey at all.
Their prey is not pheasants.
They searched carefully and gradually walked away.
On a big tree nearby, a man was lying on the branch, his body covered with branches and leaves, which gave him a perfect disguise.
He leaned against the tree trunk, watching the group of people gradually walk away, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It was obvious that he was very weak and looked miserable.
There was a horrific wound on the left thigh, which was simply bandaged. The blood seeped through the cloth and looked shocking.
He leaned against a tree branch, holding a few picked mountain berries in his hand, biting them gently.
This fruit was bitter and hard to swallow, but he had to eat it. In this state, the only thing he could find to eat was this kind of mountain fruit.
In the past two days, he has been relying on this kind of mountain fruit to maintain his life.
After barely swallowing a few mouthfuls, he couldn't help but sigh softly: "This tastes terrible... Oh, it would be great if I could have a bite of braised pork at this time."
——The man who was injured and hiding in a big tree after being searched by the mountain people turned out to be Gu Feihai!
The team of searching mountain people searched everywhere but found nothing, and finally had to return to the mountain village.
This mountain village was built scatteredly on a relatively flat open space in the mountains.
Because we live with a mountain behind us, even in the midsummer weather, there is a sense of coolness here.
That kind of coolness will not make people feel refreshed, but will make people feel very depressed.
There are residents in the village walking around on the simple mountain roads. They don't talk much, as if they are walking around, and their eyes are a little empty.
The entire mountain village was shrouded in deathly silence.
The group of searching mountain people came back without finding anything. With a bit of panic on their faces, they pushed and shoved their way to an ancient house in the center of the mountain village.
This house is probably the oldest house in the entire mountain village, but it is also the most magnificent.
The carved beams and painted buildings can even be called luxurious.
A group of people stood in front of the door silently, with a look of horror and fear on their faces.
After a while, the door of the house was pushed open, and a short middle-aged man came out.
This man was about forty years old and had a pair of small eyes, but his eyes were filled with a terrifying cold light.
He swept over several mountain people in a hazy voice, and asked in a hoarse voice: "Hasn't that person been caught yet?"
"Yes...I'm sorry..." a mountain man said nervously and tremblingly, "We...we will work harder and search for him all night long..."
"waste!"
The short middle-aged man shouted in a deep voice, "You people who live in the mountains and forests all day long can't even deal with a severely injured lame man. He's just a loser! Useless guy!"
"Yes, I'm sorry..."
When these people heard the middle-aged man's angry shouts, they all trembled.
One of them was so scared that he couldn't hold on and even fell to the ground.
The anger on the middle-aged man's face faded a little, and he continued: "If you go look for him again, you must catch him back for me!"
"Yes...yes." These mountain people said hurriedly and tremblingly.
Then he didn't dare to stay and left in a hurry, continuing to search in the mountains and forests.
The middle-aged man stood gloomily for a moment, then walked back into the ancestral house.
