Chapter 75

After more than half a month of carriage, although it was a day and night trip, fortunately, Yunzhou Prefecture welcomed the people all the way. Niu Zhuang not only felt tired, but also looked red because he was well served along the way.

But on the other hand, the slightly eased atmosphere between Lin Xixue and Bai Qing was a little more estranged because of Lin Xixue's repeated questioning before.

Since Bai Qing was displeased by her questioning last time, she always kept silent whenever she talked about key information, for fear of saying anything she shouldn't say.

Although Lin Xixue was quite helpless about this, she could understand it.

On this day, the carriage walked as usual, passing through a dead forest without bark, and arrived at an unknown small village.

The red stage temporarily set up at the village entrance has not been removed, but there is no troupe on the stage and no audience off the stage.

The village is decorated with lights and many people have red lanterns hanging in front of their doors, but the lanterns are not lit. It is clearly in broad daylight, but the door is tightly closed.

"Sister Bai, what are you doing in this village? It looks weird and terrible." Xu Zhiyi saw the scene in the village through the window, shrank his neck and shivered.

"Looking at the stage and hanging lanterns, I think there should be a wealthy family in the village doing a wedding, either doing birthdays or getting married, but it's just." Bai Qing said this, suddenly looked at Lin Xixue, and swallowed the topic halfway through the topic.

"It's just something?" Xu Zhiyi asked in fear and curiosity.

The sound of suona is sometimes big and sometimes small, and the tone is sometimes high and sometimes low, as if shouting for justice and crying out loudly. Xu Zhiyi hugged Lin Xixue's arm tighter.

As the carriage continued to move forward, the mountain village became clearer and clearer in front of him. Seeing the uninhabited stage at the entrance of the village, Niu Zhuang's legs suddenly began to tremble, and he said in horror: "Master Bai Xian, the village. That village just now!"

When Niu Zhuang saw this scene, he was sweating coldly behind him. If he hadn't been afraid of being slashed by Bai Qing with a sword, she would have wished to come forward and hug Bai Qing's arm like Xu Zhiyi.

"If you want to eat, you can eat it. I can protect you with you." Bai Qing's hands were folded and placed in front of her, her demeanor seemed dignified and decent.

This is a mourning hall temporarily converted from the Happy Hall. In front of the mourning hall, a few villagers were surrounded by white linen, and the yellow paper in the brazier turned into ashes and drifted all over the sky.

"It's not impossible to force ourselves to leave, but it's too time-consuming. Since someone in the village invites us, it's okay to go in and sit." Bai Qing said, then got off the carriage and walked towards the village.

The old woman kneeling on the ground with yellow paper burning, staring at them for a while, then she tried to get up from the ground. However, maybe she had been kneeling for a long time and her legs were a little numb, so she couldn't stand up for a long time. Two younger men on both sides raised her up.

After all, if the horse runs too fast and consumes too much endurance, he is afraid that he will not be able to run to the next town and will not leave. At that time, Master Bai will blame him, so he will not be able to afford it.

The good wine and dishes on the table have not been moved yet, as if they were specially decorated for Lin Xixue and his group of four.

"Yes!" Niu Zhuang heard Bai Qing's order, and immediately waved his whip a few times. The carriage suddenly accelerated and quickly drove out of the village.

After several villagers who were wearing mahjong greeted the four of them, they continued to go back to the mourning hall to burn paper, without any intention of entertaining them.

But Niu Zhuang had the experience of meeting a wolf girl last time, so he naturally could not be calm. He said with a sad face: "Immortal Master, I won't eat the table anymore. You have great magical powers. You should find a way to take us out of here!"

"Master Bai really wants to eat it?"

Niu Zhuang originally wanted to stay in the car, but he immediately thought that Master Bai might be the safest, so he had to follow him in disappointment.

While driving, he looked back from time to time. Seeing that the village finally disappeared, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, his hanging heart completely relieved, and lowered the speed of the carriage.

At this moment, the wine pot on the table suddenly floated up and filled the wine glass in front of Niu Zhuang. Niu Zhuang jumped up with a "ah" sound, and almost overturned the table with his knees, and the wine was poured all over the table.

Bai Qing didn't refuse anything, but just nodded at the old woman, really putting up her skirt and putting on the table.

Soon, the four of them walked from the village alley to the square. A high red wall in the square was temporarily covered with a layer of white cloth. The red hydrangea behind the white cloth did not have time to pick it off, and the paper-cut of the "四" was not torn clean, and you could still see the walls scattered paste lit.

Niu Zhuang paced around the table, his face frightened to a blue color.

Lin Xixue was not very scared. After all, she had seen too many strange things after traveling through time, and her nerves had been sharpened to a great extent. But she could see that Xu Zhiyi was a little scared and had to hold her hand and try to give her a sense of security.

The old woman's eyes were deep and had severe cataracts. She could hardly see her eyes. Several broken teeth burst out from her gums.

"Hmph, I won't say it anymore, so as not to ask some people again. In short, this village is very troublesome, so it's better to leave as soon as possible." After Bai Qing finished speaking, he ordered the driver outside the carriage: "Let the horse run faster and leave the village as soon as possible."

"Master Bai Xian, but this wine, it"

Although Lin Xixue and Xu Zhiyi didn't know why Bai Qing took the seat so calmly, there would be no mistakes when doing it, so they also took the seat. However, Xu Zhiyi was still a little scared after all, so she took the stool and sat between Bai Qing and Lin Xixue.

Niu Zhuang swallowed, no longer had the thick stuff he used to eat. He just carefully picked up a peanut and put it in his mouth for a long time without daring to swallow it.

After all, although he is stupid, he is not stupid. Master Bai's instructed him to leave the village quickly, which is simply a clear statement that there is something strange about this village.

"Of course you have to eat. Not only do you have to eat, but you have to pack up what you can't finish. In short, these are all yours. Try to eat them all."

There was also a table of banquets in front of the mourning hall, with no more and less bowls and chopsticks at the banquets. Four pairs of bowls and chopsticks were arranged in four directions, southeast, west and north.

The group of four gradually went deeper into the village, but saw every household close their doors. The whole village was like a dead village without anger, and the sad sound of suona came from a very far away.

"Well, since you can't escape, then go in. Maybe you can have another meal." Bai Qing said without any panic, but she was a little impatient.

When several villagers saw the four of them coming, they turned around in unison, staring at them with dull and stiff eyes.

After continuing to move forward, Niu Zhuang saw a mountain village ahead again.

However, there was no sound of the suona just now in front of the mourning hall, and there was no one who played the suona.

Two men walked towards the four of them with the old woman, or they shouldn't have left, because the old woman's legs were raised, so they were hanging in the air. Perhaps it would be more appropriate to call "floating" over.

"Several distinguished guests, please come to the banquet and welcome you." The old woman's voice also seemed extremely dull.

"The owner of this place saw that you only ate wine and thought you wanted to eat wine, so he poured wine for you. What's so strange about this? Since you pour wine for you, you'll drink it, don't let others down."

After Bai Qing finished speaking, the wine pot floated up on its own and poured wine for Niu Zhuang again.

Niu Zhuang raised his wine glass tremblingly, closed his eyes, and drank it all, as if he was not drinking, but was about to die generously. It was clearly a clear wine, but for some reason, it was harder to swallow than the usual turbid and sour wine.

"Okay, I've eaten the food and drunk the wine. I'll find out what I mean, I can tell you slowly."
