The strange thing is that if you look carefully, you can find that the figures of the women in the room are surprisingly consistent. At a glance, under the candlelight, their shadows are all sitting in a straight posture, and there is no
Every bit of difference.
This also made me instantly understand what Zhang Mingyu said.
There is indeed something wrong with this village.
"I want to take a look." Zhang Mingyu thought for a moment and said.
I shook my head.
"We don't necessarily want to interfere in this matter now."
"Although there are problems in this village, the villagers here don't feel anything because of it, so why should we meddle in other people's business?"
Hearing what I said, Zhang Mingyu hesitated for a moment, but nodded and said, "Yes."
"Then let's take another look."
"Go back first." I said after taking another look at the figures in the surrounding rooms: "If you really want us to get involved in things here, maybe we don't need to take the initiative. Trouble will come soon.
"
"How do you say that?" Zhang Mingyu looked at me in surprise.
I smiled bitterly: "Experience!"
It is indeed experience.
Given by Li Bowen.
Although he told Liu Shan that I could choose whether or not to interfere with what happened on the way to Badong Village, he had already said so, which showed that this journey would definitely not be so peaceful.
It seems that nothing really happened in the Dead Soul River, but that is also based on the fact that I don't want to dig out the true face of the Dead Soul River. If I really want to solve the Dead Soul River, I want to find out about the ancient temple and Zhang Mingyu
With those things mentioned, we won't leave the Dead Soul River so quickly.
And here... although it seems like nothing is happening for the time being.
But as soon as I arrived, I happened to encounter this village holding a sacrifice.
This already explains a lot of things.
Zhang Mingyu was still a little confused, but seeing that I had no intention of saying more, he didn't ask any more questions and followed me back to the place where I stayed.
When the two of us came back, Liu Shan happened to come over from the other side, holding some fruits in his hands, but with a bit of confusion on his face.
"Strange."
When Liu Shan saw us, he handed us the fruit and muttered.
"What's weird?" I asked doubtfully.
Liu Shan took a bite of the apple and said, "I just think the women here are a little strange."
"I just thought that there was not much food left, so I thought about going to a few families to buy some."
"I called several households, and there were obviously people at home, but they just didn't want to pay attention to me."
Speaking of this, Liu Shan glanced at Zhang Mingyu and me, and then said: "Then I saw the door of a house was open, so I went in by myself."
"Then what?" I frowned slightly.
Liu Shan said depressedly: "I saw the hostess of the house when I entered, but no matter what I said, she still ignored me. I began to think that the women here were afraid of life, so I put some money in and took it.
I ordered some fruit and left, but guess what I saw?"
Zhang Mingyu and I looked at each other and then shook our heads.
But I also saw the same thoughts as me in Zhang Mingyu's eyes.
Maybe...something is going to happen.
"What?" I asked.
"Paper man!" Liu Shan said after taking another bite of the apple: "That woman is clearly a paper man."
"Are you sure?" I frowned even more tightly.
Liu Shan nodded affirmatively and said, "That can still be fake."
"I'm just wondering, why do people in this village put paper figures in their homes when they have nothing to do?"
"Isn't there Niangziling who can help them find wives? As for putting a paper figurine at home and raising it as a woman?"
I thought for a moment and said, "Maybe you are dazzled."
Liu Shan curled his lips and said, "If you don't believe me, go and see for yourself."
"Whether it's a paper man or not has nothing to do with us. Let's take a rest and hit the road early tomorrow." I said again.
Liu Shan seemed to think we didn't believe it, so he waved his hand and went back to his room.
After the room door closed, I looked at Zhang Mingyu.
"What do you think?"
Zhang Mingyu shook his head and said: "What Liu Shan said should be true."
"But if the wives that the people in this village married from Niangziling were all paper dolls, they shouldn't have discovered it unless they were all deceived."
"It's not impossible." I nodded, "But this matter has nothing to do with us."
"Maybe Liu Shan is really dazzled."
A sleepless night.
Because of what Liu Shan said, I couldn't sleep that night.
It wasn't until midnight that I heard the sound of gongs and drums, so I got out of bed and walked to the window to look outside.
Because the people in Niangzi Village arranged for us to live not far from the village entrance, we can see the village entrance at a glance while standing in front of the window.
The people who had entered Niangzi Village in Niangziling had now turned into three wedding teams.
The three men in the groom's official clothes were walking at the front. Behind them were three big red sedans, each carried by four people. Three teams came in from outside the village with gongs and drums beating all the way. It was very lively.
It wasn't until all three teams entered the village that everyone stopped.
Then an old man came to the front. I knew the old man. He was the head of Niangzi Village who had arranged a place for us to stay. The village head faced the three teams and said loudly: "We worship the Red Fairy Queen!"
After hearing the village chief's words, everyone in the three teams knelt down in the direction of Niangziling. After kowtowing, the village chief shouted again: "Please give me a good wife!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the three men in the groom's official clothes stood up from the ground and walked expectantly towards the sedan chairs of their respective teams.
After opening the sedan curtain, three women wearing red wedding dresses and red headscarves were welcomed out.
The village chief also said loudly again: "Make a happy marriage, and the bride and groom will pay homage to the Red Fairy Queen!"
At the same time, the three newlyweds knelt down towards Niangziling again as the village chief said. After kowtowing one more time, the village chief shouted again: "The ceremony is completed, enter the village and enter the bridal chamber!"
The sound of gongs and drums came again.
This time, the people walking in front, besides the village chief, were the three newlyweds.
It wasn't until the three newlyweds entered a room respectively that the three welcoming teams dispersed one after another.
After watching this whole process, I felt a little confused.
Judging from the way the three groomsmen took their brides out of the sedan, the three brides did not look like paper dolls.
It seems there is a lot of weirdness in this.
But I didn't think too much about it.
Because even if there is something weird, for now, it has nothing to do with me. Now that the sacrifice is over, we can leave this girl's village at dawn.
However, sometimes things always backfire.
Just like what I was thinking from the beginning.
Coming here has more or less something to do with Li Bowen.
