Chapter 40 The abnormality of the villagers

Li Xun shook his head and said, "Even if you want to go down the river, you won't think that just a few of us are enough!"

As soon as these words were said, Lu Qing and Qian Kui immediately reacted. Although the Tulu River is not too wide, the river surface is dozens of feet wide. Even if you just check the section of Dujia Village, it is not a small project.

Even if Li Xun went into the water with them, how much scope can he search?

Qian Kui immediately said, "I'll call someone here."

Thinking that they had several companions who stayed outside the resort and did not come, Qian Kui said immediately.

Li Xun walked towards Dujia Village and said, "I have to search the Dhara River sooner or later. There is another thing that is extremely important now. Otherwise, the search for the river can only push back."

Lu Qing, who followed up, couldn't help but say curiously when he heard this: "Sir, what's so important?"

Li Xun looked at Du Ming, a village chief who was panting beside him and said, "That is to verify whether Dujia Village really cannot leave! Also, anyone who enters Dujia Village will disappear one after another. Now we have entered Dujia Village. Wouldn't that mean that tonight, someone among the three of us will disappear!"

"ah!"

Qian Kui and Lu Qing suddenly reacted, and a little panic flashed in their eyes, but they quickly calmed down.

Seeing Qian Kui and Lu Qing's reaction, Li Xun nodded secretly. The two of them were just ordinary people a few days ago and could choose to enter the Night Watch. Not to mention anything else, at least they still have this courage.

Suddenly they might have to face evil spirits, but it would be strange if they were not panic. However, since the two of them chose to enter the Night Watch, they had naturally prepared for encountering evil spirits, so they could calm down so quickly.

Only when Lu Qing was eager to try and expectant, he patted the evil-killing crossbow behind his back and the evil-killing god thunder ball in his arms, and smiled and said, "If the evil spirit doesn't come, then let it know the power of our night watchmen."

Soon the few people returned to the charity village. Li Xun glanced at the coffins in the charity village, and then instructed Qian Kui to lock the door of the charity village. Soon the three of them returned to Dujia Village.

The actions of the group were actually always seen in the eyes of the villagers of Dujia Village. Seeing Li Xun and his friends going to the charity village and walking around the river, many villagers could not help but look at Du Ming with some expectations when they saw a few people coming back.

Du Ming coughed and waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, the adults have found some clues. I think it won't take a long time to find the troubled thing."

Walking on the long street, the villagers in front were carrying buckets of water panting, and a large bucket of clear water was picked up at the entrance of the village. One of the villagers was sweating on his forehead and walked to the door of his house to lift two buckets in, and then he heard a clamor.

Li Xun saw a large bucket of water poured into the wooden basin, and a woman was sitting there washing clothes by the edge of the wooden basin.

This scene looks very lifelike. It is obvious that even if something strange happened in the village, the people still have to live. They can't do nothing. In that case, they may have to tormented themselves to death before they die in the hands of evil spirits.

"Hey, this family is really very particular. It takes so much effort to carry well water to wash clothes while guarding this great Dhara River without washing clothes. Only the wealthy families in the city are so particular."

Lu Qing's muttering was not loud, and Li Xun, who was clearly aware of his ears, listened clearly. As for the old village who was a few steps behind to deal with the villagers, he was not even attentive.

Li Xun paused, his eyes narrowed, and he looked at the villagers who carried water. When he passed by almost everyone, Li Xun would look into the open door a few times.

Perhaps it is because the village blames people for the frequent occurrences, these villagers do not feel safe even in their own yards. The doors of each family are open, and you can clearly see the situation in the yard when passing by the door.

When we walked from the end of the village to the old village chief’s house, there were about twenty families on both sides. Among these twenty families, almost three or four women were washing clothes with the well water slurry they picked.

When he returned to the old village, the old village had already sent away the villagers who came to inquire about the news, and then said with a little apology: "The villagers are ignorant, but they make the adults laugh."

Li Xun said lightly: "Old Village Master, let's go here for now. Our people will go to the charity village tonight. We will trouble the villagers to inform them to close the doors and windows tonight and don't go out to walk."

Du Ming nodded repeatedly and said, "Some adults come to eliminate evil spirits for our Dujia Village. How can we let generations of adults go to the charity village to rest? If you don't dislike the simple family of the young man, you might as well..."

Li Xun shook his head and said, "The old village is not necessary to say much. If it is true as you said, outsiders will inevitably disappear that night when they enter Dujia Village, so we should stay in the charity village."

After hearing what Li Xun said, Du Ming seemed to have thought of something, and a look of fear appeared in his eyes. He opened his mouth and said, "This is a grievance for all the adults."

Li Xun stood up and said to Qian Kui, and Lu Qing and the others: "Let's go."

After sending Li Xun and others to the door, Laocun was watching Li Xun and the other two heading towards the direction of the charity village with a complicated expression. After a long time, he sighed and attracted several villagers to continue Li Xun's instructions.

Walking on the long street paved with bluestone, it was so eye-catching in this small village where few outsiders appeared. Along the way, Li Xun and the other two could feel the gazes of secretly looking at them, either lightly or invisibly.

After this trip, Li Xun found that all the villagers in the village were carrying well water for food. When he arrived at the charity village, Li Xun paused, looked at the flowing Tulu River not far away and looked at the calm village with smoke rising from the cooking stove. He suddenly said to Lu Qing: "Lu Qing, what's wrong with the villagers here using well water for use?"

When Lu Qing heard this, he smiled and said, "Yes, as far as I know, these villagers in the countryside guard the Dhara River, let alone washing clothes, even when cooking, people will carry river water. Like Dujia Village, whether it is washing clothes or cooking, they will use well water. To be honest, this is the first time I have seen it."

As he said that, Lu Qing said again: "The Dujia Village only has an ancient well at the entrance of the village. I really don't know why they have enough well water to wash and cook. They don't need to keep the big Dhara River water. It's so damn strange!"

Qian Kui on the side sneered: "Maybe they want to learn from the big men in the city!"

Lu Qing and Qian Kui joked about the villagers of Dujia Village here, but Li Xun's expression became a little serious, and his eyes turned to the calm village and said, "No, there is something wrong with the Tulu River, and there is something wrong with Dujia Village!"

When he heard Li Xun suddenly say something like this, Qian Kui and Lu Qing looked at Li Xun in surprise and said, "Sir, isn't this obvious? The missing people in Dujia Village are very likely to be related to the Dhara River, so there is naturally a big problem."

Li Xun shook his head and looked at the two of them and said, "What I am talking about is these villagers and the village chief Du Ming, they must have hidden something."

"They dare!"

Lu Qing immediately called out when he heard this.

Qian Kui opened his eyes wide and said, "I will capture Du Ming's old thing now and ask him carefully about deceiving Shangguan and hiding clues. What does he mean?"

Li Xun waved his hand and said, "If Du Ming wants to say something, he will definitely say, if not, we will rashly arrest Du Ming and cause any trouble, it will be a bad thing."
