Chapter 5512: Villagers drowned in Honghu

When everyone finished lunch, a young and strong guy who looked in his early twenties ran over.
The young man is somewhat similar to Niu Kang, and his name is the same as his body shape, so he is called Niu Zhuang.
Bringing the so-called equipment, the group soon left the village and walked along the Honghu Lake into the mountains. It was surrounded by mountains on three sides. Among them, the slope of the stream flowing into Honghu Lake is the shallowest, and there are cliffs over 60 degrees on both sides, which are difficult to climb.
The group went up the mountain and pretended to collect some stones halfway through the way to see the so-called ingredients.
Lin Haoming discovered that this place is really a cinnabar ore, and from an industrial perspective, it is really valuable.
Naturally, Exploring minerals is not the most important thing, but more importantly, determining the situation here.
Lin Haoming and his friends soon reached the nearby high point, where they could overlook the entire village.
When everyone stood at the high point, they could see the village, regardless of the others, Lin Haoming couldn't help but squint.
Although his ability was limited, if there were so-called ghosts in this world, the pattern in front of him and the village was obviously built according to a certain ban suppression array. In this way, there might be something suppressing here. Thinking of the scarecrow that night, Lin Haoming began to wonder whether the so-called Red Witch was the target of suppression here, and to find her, it seemed that this matter was really difficult to deal with.
Next, everyone began to continue to explore the situation everywhere. There was no one living on the mountain, only a quarry in the village, and there was also a cemetery where most people in the village were buried here. Seeing that the size of the cemetery covered half of the mountain, it showed that the village had indeed existed for a long time.
Niu Zhuang is a honest and honest young man. When the group checked the cemetery, they were very worried, afraid that this was a mine and would cause trouble. However, as a young man, he also had his own ideas and envied life in the city.
It can be seen that many young people like him in the village have this idea, and this is the change of the world.
In addition to these, the honest Niu Zhuang is a very good target for spying on information. Niu Hong once again exerted her natural affinity. After a long time in the mountains, she found a lot of news from Niu Zhuang.
The most important thing is related to wolf clay. This lonely sacrifice originally had a wife and daughter, and his wife and daughter, and his wife and daughter also died in Honghu. When he died, his wife had just passed thirty and his daughter was only fourteen or fifteen years old.
Girls in the village can get married after the age of sixteen. This age seems to be similar. At that time, Lang Tu was only 30 years old. He also became a sacrificial priest after his wife and daughter died. The sacrificial priest is usually held by people who have no relatives at home.
Niu Hong asked Niu Zhuang who would take over the sacrificial ceremony if this were the case. Niu Zhuang almost thought about it and said the name Zhutai.
From Niu Zhuang, Zhutai originally had a wife and daughter, but his wife died of dysfunction and raised her daughter to the age of sixteen or seventeen. She originally planned to marry the village chief's second son, but she drowned in Honghu not long before getting married.
This series of events made everyone feel that it must be related. Lang Tu's wife and daughter, Zhutai's daughter, and Lang Tu's own death now, but these news really cannot be fully connected to draw conclusions, so they can only be used as clues and then inquire.
Because I didn't find anything valuable in the mountains, the group had to go back.
When I came back, it was almost evening. When I returned to my residence, I saw the village chief’s granddaughter wiping the table and serving up the prepared dishes.
The village chief’s granddaughter is only fourteen or fifteen years old. She is a little shy and looks pretty. She has big eyes that are crescent-shaped when she is shy.
Perhaps because I heard Niu Zhuang talk about something before, I would pay more attention to my daughter at this age. Moreover, Lin Haoming thought about the scarecrow that night. The scarecrow looked like a teenage girl, especially in red clothes.
"Several experts, my kid is okay during the day, right?" Because Village Chief Niu had to deal with Lang Tu's funeral, Niu Kang came on behalf of the village chief at this time.
"Da Zhuang is a good guy." Niu Hong smiled and patted Niu Zhuang on the shoulder, which made Niu Zhuang blush.
"This kid is just a little too honest." Niu Kang said with a smile.
"It's better to be honest, but a man is fancy." Niu Hong continued to speak for Niu Zhuang.
"He is stupid. He is in his early twenties and no girl's family will marry him." Niu Kang seemed to be somewhat helpless because his son had no wife.
"It's only twenty-one, it's not too early. There are still many men in the city. They get married at around twenty-five, and many girls get married after they are over twenty. They are still young, and we have basically confirmed that there are indeed mines in the mountains today. Next, we will check the quality and distribution of minerals. When the time comes, we can really start mining, and Dazhuang will be rich. At that time, it's possible to say that many girls who have studied in the city want to marry him." Niu Hong said with a smile.
"Captain Niu, I really believe what you said." Niu Kang was overjoyed when he heard this, and he didn't know if it was because of his son or if there was a mine.
Niu Hong also specially pulled Niu Zhuang to stay for dinner. Niu Zhuang was somewhat embarrassed, but Lin Haoming and others saw that Niu Zhuang and Niu Hong went up the mountain, Niu Zhuang seemed to be somewhat different from Niu Hong.
Looking at Niu Hong's beautiful woman in her thirties, she is dignified, elegant and enthusiastic, she is indeed too lethal for such young people in her early twenties. In order to get into trouble, she naturally hopes that they will make a good relationship.
After dinner, Niu Kang left before dark. Before leaving, Niu Kang once again warned everyone not to go out when it was dark, especially when Lang Tu suddenly died. If he angered the conservative villagers, something would happen at that time.
Of course, not many people would believe Niu Kang's words. Last night, Huacang and others heard him talking to the village chief and knew why they were invited to come.
The group went upstairs just like yesterday and surrounded Malan.
Malan also said: "Tonight, Niu Hong, please stay and look at the old woman. Hua Cang and you three still go to the village chief. Hu Shan and Hu Liang and I go to Langtu's house."
"Elder, there will be danger there...there will be danger there." Hu Liang hesitated.
"Danger? There is no danger. The more you are afraid of danger, the more you can't do this high-level task." Malan warned.
"Yes." Huliang agreed directly.
Seeing that he agreed, Malan looked at everyone and said, "Okay, if you find anything, you can say it."
