Chapter 23 Ancient Village (1)

A mountain village lies in front of Zheng Xiao.

This is a small mountain village. It is located at the bottom of the valley. It is built according to the mountain topography. It is all made of bluestone walls and thatch roofs. The courtyard walls are made of piled stones, only waist-high.

high.

Standing on the hillside on one side of the valley, Zheng Xiao looked at the mountain village in front of him and did not move for a long time.

It wasn't that he didn't want to go there, but it was because he felt something strange that he didn't dare to enter the mountain village rashly. It was a special feeling that made him feel a warning sign in his heart and his heart beat faster before he entered the mountain village.

I’m afraid this mountain village is not that simple!

Zheng Xiao has been standing on the hillside for a while. He has been observing this mountain village, hoping to see something. After this period of observation, he has been able to see some clues.

The area of ​​​​this mountain village is not too large, which means one or two miles in radius, but the houses are well-proportioned and seem to be distributed according to some very strange rules.

As for the characteristics, it is hard to see clearly because there is always a layer of mist floating over the mountain village, which makes it look a bit misty.

In addition, the mountain village is very quiet, and there is not a sound of human beings, not even the barking of chickens and dogs. This is a bit unconventional for a mountain village whose main livelihood is hunting.

In mountain villages in the Northeast, hunters usually keep hounds to help them hunt. This has almost become a local custom and tradition, and it has not changed for thousands of years.

Of course, there are other anomalies, and Zheng Xiao also discovered them, which proves that there is something weird about this mountain village.

"Do you want to go down and find out?" Zheng Xiao squatted behind the stone, put down the telescope and thought.

This village is so weird. Maybe the disappearances of Lin Shaofeng and Chen Liujin are related to it. If you go in and take a look, you might be able to find something.

With this in mind, Zheng Xiao decided to go into the village to take a look. At worst, he should be more careful. As long as he was more vigilant, he was quite confident in his own skills.

Now that he had decided, Zheng Xiao took action. He fixed the climbing rope to a tree, and then climbed down the rock to the foot of the mountain outside the mountain village.

When he reached the foot of the mountain, he released the climbing rope, Zheng Xiao pulled out his pistol, and then walked cautiously towards the mountain village.

The feeling was not obvious on the hillside. When he came closer to the mountain village, Zheng Xiao realized that the fog seemed to be a lot thicker. The village was shrouded in mist, and it was difficult to see clearly what was happening on the other side after a few steps.

Looking at the mysterious white mist, Zheng Xiao recalled a record from a book, which was about an ancient village. The village was built on the bank of an underground Wen River, and the river water passed through artificially carved holes.

The hidden void spread over the ancient village, forming the fog that lingers all year round.

The records in the book at that time said that the ancient village was a descendant branch of the original Zhuge Wuhou, so it inherited part of Zhuge Wuhou's amazing magical skills.

Originally he only heard that legend as an anecdote, but when he stood in front of this mist-shrouded mountain village, the story suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Could this be the legendary Wuhou Ancient Village? It can't be such a coincidence, right?" Zheng Xiao looked at the mountain village in front of him where the mist was floating but never dispersed. He rubbed his chin, feeling a little bit in a dilemma.

If it is really the legendary ancient village of Wuhou, then I'm afraid it's not that simple. The descendants of Zhuge Wuhou would not believe it even if they say it. If they give themselves an eight-array diagram or something, they will die.

Don't know how he died.

But if he didn't go in, Zheng Xiao couldn't suppress his curiosity. Who wouldn't be aroused when encountering something like this?

It is said that curiosity killed the cat, and now Zheng Xiao is like that Persian cat who became very curious.

Just when he was hesitating, there were footsteps behind him, which seemed to be walking towards him. This sudden change made Zheng Xiao startled and he looked back hurriedly.

The Japs, a large group of Japs, were winding down a mountain road and headed straight for the mountain village.

Zheng Xiao originally planned to return along the original route and climb back up the cliff, but he found that the Japanese were coming too fast, and when he climbed up the cliff, he happened to be the target of the Japanese.

With his brain spinning rapidly, Zheng Xiao thought about what he should do, and his eyes roamed around his body, looking for somewhere to hide.

However, at this glance, I was so disappointed. The surrounding area was surrounded by gentle slopes, and there was no hiding place at all. The only place that could be hidden was the mist-shrouded mountain village not far away.

What to do, should we go in or not? Zheng Xiao was having a fierce struggle in his heart.

The footsteps turned out to be getting closer and closer. As long as they rounded a bend not far away, the Japanese would find Zheng Xiao at the foot of the mountain not far away. When the time came, a salvo of forty or fifty rifles would be fired at close range. Zheng Xiao's chances of escaping

Definitely no more than one percent.

Forced into a desperate situation, Zheng Xiao panicked and rushed into the foggy mountain village with a pistol. He swayed and disappeared.

"Huh?" Captain Matsui Ishizo, who turned around the corner, felt a figure in front of him flicker, as if a figure rushed into the misty mountain village, which made him stunned for a moment.

After searching the surroundings, I saw no one in sight. Matsui Ishizo couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, "It seems I'm just seeing things."

Two Japanese scouts ran over and said to him, "Captain, this is the mountain village we found."

Pulling back his thoughts, Matsui Ishigan then cast his gaze on the mountain village where the mist rolled in. He immediately felt his breathing become short of breath and his heart was beating wildly.

Taking a deep breath to calm his heartbeat, Ishizo Matsui murmured to himself, "That's it, that's it."

This is the extremely mysterious ancient village, the legendary ancient village where the descendants of Zhuge Wuhou live.

The ancestor of Ishizo Matsui once got a book, which recorded this mountain village shrouded in mist. He who loves Chinese culture clearly remembers that at the end of the book, there is such a sentence, "Degu Village

Those who win will win the world."

Matsui Ishisangen, who fanatically admired Zhuge Wuhou, naturally believed this sentence deeply.

So today, when he saw this legendary ancient village, Matsui Ishisangen felt like he would pass out from happiness.

"This is really the blessing of Amaterasu. It actually allowed me to get the true biography of the legendary Zhuge Wuhou. It's great, it's great." Matsui Ishizo rubbed his hands excitedly, raised his head and was about to rush into the misty mountain village.

Several Japanese soldiers hurriedly grabbed him and said, "Captain, don't go in, it may be dangerous."

This advice made Matsui Ishizo calm down. He thought for a while, then waved his hand and said, "You guys go in and take a look at the situation inside. Remember not to rush in."

Several Japanese soldiers responded, formed a battle formation and slowly entered the mountain village, disappearing into the thick fog.

Outside the mountain village, Ishizo Matsui waited with wide eyes for the result.
