Because of Lin Xi's presence, Xu Jing and the others were not afraid of this kind of news, but were very interested.
Unfortunately, no further information has been dug out yet, and I really can’t figure out what kind of supernatural events have happened there.
For a moment, several girls in the dormitory became even more excited about their internship location.
On the first day of school, the relevant teachers in the department simply organized an internship mobilization meeting, and explained to everyone the things that everyone needed to pay attention to and some rules.
He also told me the departure time and train number.
The departure time is set for tomorrow morning. Xu Jing and the others are afraid that they won’t be able to get up the next day or forget something, so they go to bed early.
Early the next morning, everyone was ready and boarded the bus to the train station.
After a few more hours of hard work, we finally arrived at the town where our destination was at noon.
After arriving in the town, the bus could not drive into the town because there was a long country dirt road ahead.
It was lunch time when we arrived in the town. The teacher had already made a reservation with the only restaurant in town, and as soon as we got off the bus, he led a group of students to the restaurant.
This is a very simple restaurant with only a few tables. The waiters and cashier are all the owner's wife.
It was a rare occasion for the store to have such a large business. The proprietress was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling and greeted the students enthusiastically.
Lin Xi, Xu Jing and the others sat at the same table. Except for Lin Xi and Ren Yao, none of the roommates had ever been to such a remote town.
Especially today is the market day in the town, and villagers from nearby areas are coming and going in front of the restaurant with baskets and backpacks on their backs.
Although it was a bit late and the market had already dispersed, there were still many elderly people with limited mobility or people who had not sold all their goods lingering on the streets.
Of course, what attracted Xu Jing and the others the most was the people wearing distinctive ethnic costumes passing by on the street from time to time.
Although these clothes can often be seen in videos or on TV, it is rare to see people like Xu Jing wearing them in real life.
At this moment, seeing those exquisite clothes being worn by people so close to them, everyone was shocked.
"It's really beautiful."
"Yeah, and when I walk, the accessories make noises when they bump against each other. It's really a sight to behold and a delight to listen to!"
I can’t imagine how beautiful it would be to dance in such a costume!
Just as Xu Jing and the others were staring wide-eyed trying to see more clearly, they suddenly saw a big girl wearing distinctive clothes walking into the store from the street.
In an instant, the girl attracted the attention of Xu Jing and others.
The girl obviously didn't expect that there would be so many young people in the store. They looked about the same age as her, and she was a little at a loss for a moment.
At this moment, the proprietress came out from the kitchen and immediately took care of the girl after seeing her.
The two spoke in the local dialect when they talked. Although this place is some distance away from Jiangyu and has already left the province, the two dialects are somewhat similar.
Apart from some differences in tone, most of the words are the same, so if you listen carefully you can roughly understand what the proprietress and the other woman are saying.
From the conversation between the proprietress and the girl, they heard the identities of the two people, who seemed to be aunt and niece.
The girl came this time to remind her aunt to go home in a few days, saying that it was the day for collective sacrifice in the village again.
The proprietress slapped her head and said she almost forgot.
They also complained that this sacrifice was not for their family, but was clearly an event organized by someone else's family. Now it has caused the whole village to be busy with it. The more they think about it, the more angry they become.
The girl actually thought that this sacrifice was troublesome and strange, but ever since she got her seal, the village elders had started to organize everyone to perform the sacrifice together.
It's called a sacrifice, but in fact it's just everyone gathering together, placing some offerings by the river, burning some incense, candles, and paper money, and letting the village elders say a few words.
She also learned from her aunt that decades ago, there was actually no such activity in the village.
It was only after something happened that the elders in the village began to discuss holding the annual sacrifice.
But my aunt didn't tell him in detail what it was because she herself didn't know.
She only knew that it seemed to be because something happened in a family.
After that, the girl told her aunt a few more things about her family situation, and then she took the things that her aunt gave her and asked her to take back to her grandmother and left.
During this time, Xu Jing was listening to the conversation between the two.
It wasn't that she wanted to eavesdrop on purpose, it was just that the proprietress and her husband didn't restrain themselves, and they happened to be standing right next to them.
That's why she accidentally listened to the whole thing.
As soon as the girl and the proprietress left, Xu Jing immediately lowered her voice and excitedly started discussing with Lin Xi and the others.
"Sacrifice! Oh my god, it sounds so mysterious! And the boss lady seemed to say that the incident was caused by someone else. What do you think? Those supernatural incidents I read about here online before, could they be related to the sacrifice in the boss lady's village?"
Xu Jing is indeed a literary creator, with a strong ability of association. She immediately thought of the supernatural events she had discovered on the Internet before from the sacrifice.
After hearing her explanation, the other roommates actually thought it was very reasonable.
After all, judging from the proprietress's dress, manner of speaking and behavior, she doesn't look like someone who came from a particularly closed place.
In any case, in the understanding of Xu Jing and others, places where "sacrificial" activities take place seem to be generally very closed.
At least the local people should believe in something.
Unfortunately, whether judging from the store's furnishings or the proprietress's personality, she seems to believe in the God of Wealth more.
"If that's the case, then wouldn't the boss's hometown be very close to where we're doing our internship?"
Roommate Yao Beibei continued, "How about we ask the boss lady where her hometown is?"
If they were really from the same village, the situation would probably be just as Xu Jing guessed.
Several people were very curious about the truth of the post that Xu Jing had seen before. In addition, the proprietress seemed very talkative, so while the proprietress was serving the dishes to their table, they asked her about her hometown.
I didn't expect that they would actually ask this question.
The boss lady’s hometown is in the same village as Lin Xi and her colleagues’ internship base!
Although it was confirmed that the two villages were the same village, Xu Jing and the others naturally did not ask more questions, such as the details of the sacrifice and the rumored supernatural events.
However, because they had found out more information and were very close to the "truth of the supernatural incident", Xu Jing and the others were extremely eager to reach the internship base immediately!
The teacher in charge obviously wanted to get them to their destination as soon as possible so that he could relax a little.
So after everyone finished their meal, they got together and started to move again.
There were no buses this time, only a few rented vans that picked up passengers in the countryside and towns.
A group of people got on a van carrying their luggage and bumped along a rural dirt road for half an hour before finally arriving at their destination.
