Chapter 73 This world full of ghosts 12
On the rugged mountain road, an off-road vehicle was driving quickly, and inside it was Shen Yuanfeng and his group.
Jiang Haichuan was holding a map in his hand. The topography of Heishiling was determined by satellite positioning devices, and the specific location of Fengshan Village was drawn with a lot of manpower and energy.
They had been driving in the mountains for half a day. If they could not reach Fengshan Village before dark, they would probably be attacked by ghosts at night. Once their identities were exposed, they would not be able to find out the location of the foreign object.
"Captain, we can't drive ahead, we can only walk." Lu Xuesheng, who was driving, suddenly stopped and shouted.
Jiang Haichuan opened the car door and looked ahead. There were lush plants all over the place, with only a very narrow path for passage. It seemed that he had no choice but to park the car here for now.
"It's noon now. After eating something, everyone should pack their luggage and prepare to hike to Fengshan Village."
Walking in the densely vegetated forest, Shen Yuanfeng looked at the watch he brought with him. It was already around three o'clock in the afternoon. He asked Jiang Haichuan, "How far do we have to go?"
Jiang Haichuan picked up the map in his hand and studied it: "We are still about ten kilometers away from Fengshan Village. It will take more than an hour to walk there."
"Would you like some water?" Shangguan Yuchen handed the kettle to Shen Yuanfeng.
Shen Yuanfeng took the kettle and just as he took a sip, he sensed a pair of eyes looking at them from afar.
Something is watching from the dark.
He exchanged a glance with Shangguan Yuchen, and the gaze dissipated. He had also discovered it. He looked at the others, and only Bai Shuyun and Xu Ruoxuan noticed it and frowned slightly.
"Captain, I think we should look for any villages nearby. We have been walking around for so long, it's too tiring. We can stay at the homes of nearby villagers and ask them to be our guides. They are familiar with this area and will know where the beautiful scenery is just by asking..."
Shen Yuanfeng's sudden inexplicable complaint gave the six people a startle.
The identities they arranged were hikers who came here specifically for the beautiful scenery of Black Stone Ridge. Now these words were obviously not meant for them. Did they discover something?
There were no signs of human beings except for them, so were there ghosts spying on them?
"Oh, I shouldn't have come here if I had known. I said at that time that I would choose famous mountains and rivers." Jiang Tiantian stomped her feet and pretended to be spoiled.
He understood what I meant so quickly!
As the leader, Jiang Haichuan waved his hands irritably and looked up at the sky, looking a little anxious: "Don't rush us or complain, let's go quickly, maybe we can be lucky enough to find a place to stay."
"Feng'er, you are tired. Let me help you." Shangguan Yuchen looked at Shen Yuanfeng with heartache.
"Let's find a place to rest quickly. I feel dirty." Bai Shuyun looked at his clothes with disdain, feeling very depressed.
"Look at your behavior. My body is still the best." Xu Ruoxuan jumped up and down to show his energy and looked down on his companions' physical strength.
"Stop talking, let's go quickly."
"Yes, I want to have a hot meal now."
The Lu brothers also joined in the fun.
Shen Yuanfeng: ...
She just started it, but she didn't expect it to attract a lot of drama queens.
The rest of the journey seemed to be a matter of luck. They found a path that was often traveled by people not far away. It was straight and there was no need to turn around. In less than an hour, they stood at the entrance of the village.
Everyone:...
Is it so obvious? It seems that it is time to test their acting skills.
At this time, a villager was walking by with a shoulder pole. When he saw Shen Yuanfeng and his group, he immediately greeted them warmly: "Dear guests, are you out for fun? You look tired. I will take you to the village chief to arrange accommodation."
They don't even need to make excuses, everything has been said for them, but they are not too enthusiastic, especially those fiery eyes, which make them feel like they are food in the mouths of the hungry and gold and silver in the eyes of the greedy, and their scalps are tingling.
With someone leading the way, the eight people followed with smiles on their faces, praising the scenery of Heishi Ridge on the way. However, the vegetation was so lush that there was no place to set up tents.
"Village chief, I'm Tie Niu. I met eight tourists at the entrance of the village. Can you find any vacant places and arrange accommodation for us?" Tie Niu led everyone to the door of a big house and shouted at the top of his voice.
A skinny old man walked out of the house and saw Shen Yuanfeng and his eight companions. His eyes sparkled. "Another group of tourists are coming. Great! Our Black Rock Ridge has beautiful scenery. Every year, there are always a few groups of what you call hikers coming here. And there is only one village in Black Rock Ridge, Fengshan Village. For this reason, we have vacated a two-story building this year, which is specially for tourists like you to stay in."
As he spoke, he really took them to a two-story building with a private entrance and yard. There were complete facilities inside. He also had someone deliver a bag of rice and some vegetables and fish. If they needed anything, they could always come to him.
Jiang Haichuan took out a thousand yuan and handed it to the village chief: "Thank you for your help. Please accept it."
The village chief politely accepted it, but there was no fluctuation in his eyes, not even a hint of joy.
Normally, one thousand yuan is a huge fortune for a small village deep in the mountains. They only need a bag of rice, some vegetables and fish grown by themselves. They won't live here for long, so it's a huge profit.
But the village chief didn't care about money at all, and he was so hospitable to them. Not to mention being kind and enthusiastic, there was no warmth in his eyes, and few people would believe it.
No matter how dilapidated the houses in the mountain villages are, they are generally built spaciously, and this two-story building is no exception.
In addition to the kitchen, hall and bathroom, there is a study and two bedrooms on the first floor. On the second floor there is a bathroom, a small study and three bedrooms, and even a small balcony.
"The village chief said that this small building was specially built for outsiders to live in. If that's the case, there must be some clues left. Let's look for it carefully."
"Xuesheng and Xuesong, you can cook, make dinner first, and check if anyone is watching."
"Tiantian, Yuanfeng and Yuchen will be in charge of checking the first floor. Shuyun, Ruoxuan and I will go up to the second floor."
As the residence for the next few days, Jiang Haichuan must explore it thoroughly, firstly to eliminate danger, and secondly to search for clues.
Shen Yuanfeng walked into the study room on the first floor. There was nothing in the room, just a table and a chair. There were no books on the bookshelf either. It was very clean.
It looked like an ordinary study room. Shen Yuanfeng paced around the room and when she reached the floor next to the table, she felt something was wrong with her feet. She knocked on it with her hand, and it made a sound. It was empty. She opened it with her hand, and a diary appeared in front of her.
Shen Yuanfeng picked up the diary and opened it.
This was written by a group of people who loved outdoor travel and were deceived into going to Fengshan Village. Later they gradually realized that something was wrong, but found that they could not leave the village, so they hid the diary, hoping that it would be discovered one day and people would know what happened to their group.
