Chapter 32: The Invisible Village

"Is this where you said?"

He Xiaojianqiang and I looked at the large area of ​​weeds in front of us and asked Zhang Zuo who was following us closely.

There is only a plain covered with weeds, which is very large. This place is between Linzhang and Cizhou in Hebei. I have visited here more than once. In addition to weeds, there are more than one hundred tombs. According to research, this is a group of tombs of the emperors and nobles of the Eastern Wei and Northern Qi during the Northern Dynasties. However, among the people, there is also a legend here that this is the location of the seventy-two suspicious tombs of Cao Cao. This is the place where the Scar Girl told me, saying that the village where Chu Jiangshan was born here can be found, but I found nothing here, and I only saw Wang Zihua who lost his memory. This place was brought to us by Zhang Zuo.

When I was in the old house in the deep mountains, I once asked Zhang Zuo what big things would happen to that house. He always refused to tell us the answer directly. Later, he even said that someone told him that once the old house, that is, the "Prison of Green Mountains" that Zhang Zuo said, would change after it was cracked. As for what changes he said he didn't know, it would be extremely terrible. I naturally didn't believe in this. Seeing him running down from the big stone in a hurry, I knew there must be something wrong here, but he refused to say it. As for what the old house would change, I was even more unbelievable. I had been in the old house and didn't see what it produced.

I originally wanted to continue asking this question, but He Xiaojianqiang stopped my actions. He seemed not so curious about what changes would happen to this old house. Instead, he asked Zhang Zuo: "Who is that person, who is the person who tells you all this?"

I felt aroused in my heart. I just paid too much attention to the changes in the old house just now, so I ignored the person Zhang Zuo mentioned. If Zhang Zuo really didn't know what changes would happen to the old house, then the person who told him these things would definitely know, and he should know more. As long as he found that person, all problems would naturally be solved.

I looked at Zhang Zuo with a gaze and was very curious about the person he said, but Zhang Zuo smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know."

Before I could get angry again, Zhang Zuo immediately explained: "I didn't see him, I just heard his voice."

I said, "Did he call you?"

Zhang Zuo shook his head. I continued to ask: "Are you in the house and he is outside the window?"

Zhang Zuo smiled bitterly and continued to shake his head.

I sneered and was about to make a sarcasm, but suddenly stopped again because I remembered that I had heard such a voice when I was in Fengmen Village, so I asked hesitantly: "Where did he say to you? In a village in a deep mountain?"

Zhang Zuo shook his head and said, "That place is in Hebei, I can take you there."

When Zhang Zuo first talked about Hebei, I didn't expect it to be the plain I had been to. After all, in order to find the whereabouts of Tan Lei and the Shroud, he has been through almost all parts of the country in order to find out the whereabouts of Tan Lei and the Shroud. What's more, who would have thought it would be so coincidental? The most important thing is that I have been to this place for several nights and didn't hear anyone say anything to me, so I didn't think about it at all. Therefore, when I really stood on this plain, my first reaction was to doubt whether Zhang Zuo was lying to me again.

Zhang Zuo smiled bitterly again and said, "What's the point of lying to you at this time? Didn't I always follow you?"

I thought about it, but I have been in this place for a long time and I didn’t hear anyone talking to me at all. He Xiaojianqiang asked: “Under what circumstances did you hear that person talking to you?”

Zhang Zuo shook his head and said, "It's very ordinary and normal. It was still during the day. I passed by here. There were many people around me at that time, but the sound suddenly sounded. I was shocked at that time, but I found that the others around me had no reaction at all. Only then did I realize that this voice was indeed saying to me. As for what I said, you also know."

I wanted to know a thing, you didn't want to say anything. But now, it seems that we are in a dead end again. We were originally planning to go to Fengmen Village, Henan, but because we were too concerned about the old house, after all, the mechanism inside has not been completely cracked, and we still don't know what is hidden inside. He Xiaojianqiang originally hoped to find out the secret and destroy it to force Chu Jiangshan to appear, so he came here as soon as possible, but unexpectedly he still got nothing.

According to my opinion, it would be better to take a bus to Fengmen Village, Henan Province at this time. Anyway, Zhang Zai has the support of the Holy See and has a lot of money on it. After spending so many years with He Xiaojianqiang, I have not learned anything else. I have learned a lot of skills to take advantage of it. Since Zhang Zai wants to join this team on his own initiative, this amount of money still needs to be paid, so let's just take the activity fund.

But the problem is that He Xiaojianqiang disagrees and says that since he has come here, it is better to stay overnight. I know he is not giving up, but he has to agree helplessly. It is summer, and it is not like he is in an old house in the mountains. The coldness will not be too heavy at night. Living in a tent is not afraid of the cold, but there are more mosquitoes.

After the discussion, the three of them went to buy some essential daily necessities together. Of course, the money must be paid by Zhang Zuo. He didn't care about money. He probably thought that the money was not earned by himself, so he took great care of it. This greatly changed my impression of him. Even if I wanted to meet more people like this, I might be able to spend my whole life happily in the mountains and rivers.

We waited until the matter was done before we rushed back to the original place. It was already evening. The lights on the road were already on. We sat in front of the tent and gnawed on dry food. Looking at the lights from far to near and from near to far, we closed our mouths in a tacit understanding and didn't say a word. We were thinking about our own thoughts. The smell of various mosquito repellents and insecticides surrounded us. The pungent smell made us unable to sleep peacefully, so until eleven o'clock in the evening, although I was already very sleepy, I still couldn't fall asleep peacefully.

He Xiaojianqiang glanced at me and said, "You can sleep for a while."

While yawning, I said, "I guess I can't wait for anything, why don't we go back?"

He Xiaojianqiang said lightly: "You go to bed first, I'll call you later."

I felt aroused and asked hurriedly: "Will something happen later?"

Now even Zhang Zuo was attracted, leaned forward and said, "Did you find something?"

He Xiaojianqiang didn't say it out loud, but just said lightly: "I'll know then, you should cultivate your spirit first." Finally, he said again as if he was talking to himself: "I really didn't expect it to be like this."

When he said this, I became more and more curious, and I felt a little nervous. I always felt that this matter was a little weird. I leaned against He Xiaojianqiang and said, "What the hell is going on?"

Zhang Zuo also raised his ears, He Xiaojianqiang looked up at the sky and said, "It should be coming soon, so there is no need to rest, let's prepare together."

I couldn't help but complain: "You are trying to be anxious. I won't say anything. Let's just be prepared!"

Zhang Zuo did not dare to complain, but nodded repeatedly, looking very convinced.

Zhang Zuo smiled, looked ahead, and said lightly: "Prepare to see Chu Jiangshan's secret."

"Puff" I almost sprayed He Xiaojianqiang with a sip of water I just poured into my mouth, but at this time I didn't care about the dampness on my chest. I opened my eyes wide and looked at He Xiaojianqiang, regardless of whether it was midnight or not, if it would bring any bad effects to my yelling loudly, pointed at He Xiaojianqiang with one hand, looked shocked, and said stutteringly: "You, what did you say?!"

Zhang Zuo didn't know much about Chu Jiangshan, and we didn't tell him what he had experienced. Anyway, he wanted to join this team and explore the secrets with us. The so-called sincerity can only be taken out by himself. This is just a transaction rather than an equal cooperation relationship. Moreover, Zhang Zuo himself probably also knew the position and relationship between him, so he didn't ask us for some secrets along the way, so he had no idea why I was so shocked. He just looked at me and He Xiaojianqiang, with a confused look on his face.

I naturally have to be shocked, because the Scar Girl first told me this place that the person in the village was killed by a mysterious person eleven years ago. This mysterious person once possessed Xiao Rui and scared Grandma Liu away. Yang Zijiang and Scar Girl were so scared that Yang Zijiang and Scar Girl did not dare to attack Xiao Rui. It was during the conversation between Fengmen Village that I knew that Chu Jiangshan was born in that village, but he happened to go out that day, so he became the only leaking fish in the village. As for Scar Girl, I think she should be just a clone or a person who was resurrected after death. As for why she looks so similar to Xiao Rui, I don’t know the reason.

The place of this village was told by Scar Girl, but I didn't find anything here. Instead, after coming here, I started to have a strange dream and found Gexi Village, solved some of my own mystery, and learned the truth behind some historical events. However, I never found the village mentioned by Scar Girl. I even thought that this so-called village was actually Gexi Village. When I came to this plain, I just wanted to inspire my dream, so that I could find Gexi Village. After all, many people had died in Gexi Village back then.

Later experience proved that my inference was wrong. Gexi Village was Gexi Village, but later the scar girl also lost her memory like Wang Zihua, so she couldn't find a name for her. I once thought I would never have the chance to go to the village where Chu Jiangshan was born to look for his real secret, but He Xiaojianqiang said something like this to me at this time, how could I not be shocked?

He Xiaojianqiang glanced at me, as if he knew what I was thinking, and said calmly and confidently: "I once told you that everything in this world has souls, people and animals, and even houses and villages, but many people can't see it."
