Chapter 101 How can you be more timid than a chicken?
Taking advantage of the dark and windy night, the four members of the Shen family took their equipment and quietly left the Shen Mansion.
They followed the map drawn by Shen Chaoyan and headed towards Moxiang Village.
Moxiang Village is located in the southeast of the capital, surrounded by mountains and rivers, in a remote area with beautiful scenery.
It is completely an ancient version of a resort.
The moon is high in the sky and the stars are shining.
Under the moonlight, the rows of houses in Moxiang Village seem to be covered with a layer of gauze, with an indescribable sense of tranquility and beauty.
Shen Chaoyan and the other three stopped at the entrance of the village. Shen Linfeng took out a telescope from his bag and looked around. He whispered, "Dad, I've checked. There's no one around here. Can we go into the village?"
"Wait!"
Shen Chaoyan grabbed Shen Linfeng's clothes to stop him from going forward. "The emperor sent someone to inquire in advance. Moxiang Village not only has secret guards who take turns to watch for twelve hours, but also hides a group of assassins. We can't be careless!"
As she spoke, she opened the heavenly book with her mind: [Turn on navigation mode.]
The heavenly book unfolded in front of Shen Chaoyan's eyes, and all the words on the pages disappeared, turning into a map of Moxiang Village.
The map clearly marked the farmland, wells, chicken coops, pig pens, and toilets.
There is a blue arrow at the bottom left of the map, which is where they are at the moment.
The whole village has a total of 88 courtyards, a total of 369 houses.
Above each house, there are small words indicating whether the corresponding house is a residence or a warehouse, and whether the people living inside are kidnapped children, or nannies and thugs who are guarding the children.
There are also many moving red dots on the map.
These dots are the secret sentries patrolling the village at the moment.
Shen Linfeng listened to Shen Chaoyan's words and couldn't help showing a puzzled expression, "I think this is just an ordinary country village. Sister, are you too cautious?"
"Before I left the palace, the emperor gave me a map of this village. The map marked where the secret guards were. You follow me."
Shen Qingyuan nodded, "Listen to Yan'er, we will follow Yan'er."
So everyone followed Shen Chaoyan, walked around half of the village, and sneaked into a pigsty.
In the pigsty, fat and big-eared pigs were sleeping soundly in all directions.
Shen Chaoyan walked in front, Shen Qingyuan followed her, Shen Yushu walked in the third, and Shen Linfeng walked at the end with his telescope.
The three people in front of him had walked out of the pig pen. Shen Linfeng hurried his steps and took a big step, stepping on a pile of pig feces.
His foot slipped, stumbled two steps, and fell on a sow in the corner.
The sow was shocked by the pressure, twisted its fleshy body, and jumped up, "Hum! Hum!"
Shen Linfeng heard the sow's humming sound, and his first reaction was to reach out to cover the pig's mouth.
The pig's mouth was long and big, and he didn't cover the right place, so his hand was bitten hard.
Shen Linfeng felt the pain, shook his hands and cried out, "Oh, sister! Why is this pig biting me?"
"Even rabbits bite when they are anxious! You are pressing it, how can it not feel pain? The pig is screaming too loudly, let's go!"
Shen Chaoyan bent over and squatted beside the pigsty to urge him.
The frightened sow was still screaming, and several pigs in the pigsty raised their heads and groaned along with it.
Although the heavenly book showed that there were no sentries nearby, once the sentries heard the noise in the pigsty, they would come immediately!
The four of them climbed over the pig pen and entered the village. Shen Linfeng didn't know what kind of luck he had. Not only did he step on pig feces and wake up a sow, but now the whole pig pen was in an uproar.
He reached into his bag and soon found a medicine bag.
Shen Linfeng took out the medicine bag and sprinkled the medicine powder on the pigs.
The pigs shook their fat bodies for a few times, and then fell to the ground one after another.
Shen Chaoyan was stunned when he saw this scene. "Second brother, what did you do to these pigs?"
"I just put some drugs in the bag before I came. The quack doctor who sells drugs said that this drug can knock out an elephant. It turned out that he didn't lie to me!"
Shen Linfeng stepped out of the pig pen and looked around. "Sister, let's run away quickly while no one notices what's going on here." Shen
Chaoyan raised his head and glanced at the red dots on the heavenly book that were moving towards this side. He said to them, "Let's go this way!"
With the guidance of the heavenly book, they successfully avoided the sentry who went to the pig pen to check the situation.
However, as they walked, they suddenly heard the sound of children reading.
The night wind blows, and the sound of reading continues. In the silent night, it sounds indescribably weird.
Shen Qingyuan and Shen Yushu paused and turned to look at Shen Chaoyan who was walking in front of them, "Yan'er, did you hear any strange noises?"
Before Shen Chaoyan could reply, Shen Linfeng grabbed Shen Chaoyan's arm, "Sister, what's that noise? It's so scary!"
While speaking, he squeezed to Shen Chaoyan's side and continued with a pinched throat, "I've read in storybooks before that in remote villages like this, there would be children who died of starvation because they were not raised. The souls of those children cannot be reincarnated, and at night they will turn into little ghosts and wander around the village. If they are entangled by the little ghosts, they will die miserably!"
Shen Chaoyan looked at his trembling appearance with a look of disgust, "Second brother, you are a grown man, why are you more courageous than a chicken?"
"As the saying goes, it's easy to see King Yan, but hard to deal with the little ghost." Shen Linfeng tightened his hand around her arm, "If King Yan shows up, I, your second brother, won't even blink an eye, but the little ghost is really scary!"
Shen Yushu was speechless looking at his useless appearance, "A gentleman doesn't talk about strange things, how can there be any ghosts in this world?"
Shen Qingyuan nodded lightly, "Yes, many times, people are much scarier than ghosts."
Shen Chaoyan pulled her arm back, listened carefully for a moment, raised her hand and pointed to the road ahead, and said to them, "The sound of reading comes from there, let's go and take a look."
"Ah?" Shen Linfeng's face fell on the spot, "Do we have to go there?"
"If you are scared, stay here and wait for us. Yan'er, let's go."
Shen Qingyuan said, walking around Shen Linfeng and walking side by side with his daughter.
Shen Yushu walked behind the two of them, not even bothering to look at Shen Linfeng.
Alas! How could his second brother still be so timid?
It was such a waste of all the muscle he had trained in the past few months!
Shen Linfeng looked around. At this hour, most of the houses in the village were dark, which was quite scary.
"Wait for me!" He shouted in a low voice, but seeing that no one paid attention to him, he could only trot to catch up.
Shen Chaoyan walked in front and could clearly feel the sound of reading getting closer and closer. She could even hear clearly what was being read.
"The orioles are singing on the island in the river. The fair lady is the ideal match for the gentleman.
The water chestnuts are lush and varied, flowing around. The fair lady is sought day and night.
If she cannot be obtained, he yearns for her day and night. How leisurely, how carefree, turning back and forth..."
