The further you go into the village, the more desolate it becomes, which makes you break out in a cold sweat.
"Grandma Witch, why has this village become like this? Do you know the reason?"
When she came in, she looked around the village and found that the location of the village was quite good. There was a main road right outside the village. A village like this should not have ended like this.
The witch woman walking in front suddenly sighed, looked around, and said slowly in an old voice, "That should have been thirty years ago. I had just married my dead husband at that time. At that time, this village was still very lively. Every household worked from sunrise to sunset. I don't know how happy we were. But, the good times didn't last long. Suddenly one day, a young man came to the village and said he wanted to live in our village for a while. At that time, he also gave our village chief some money. The village chief saw that he was just a young man who loved painting and had some money to earn, so he didn't think much of it and let him stay."
Having said this, the witch stopped, glanced ahead with a dull look, frowned, and continued walking forward.
Zhang Meng, who was listening attentively, saw that she hadn't finished her story and continued to ask, "What happened next, Grandma Witch? Was the village's transformation related to that young man?"
The witch nodded and said, "You are right. The village has become like this because of that young man. No one in our village could have imagined that the arrival of this young man would bring such a devastating disaster to our peaceful village."
As she was talking about this, there was a sudden noise ahead. The witch, who had sharp ears, twitched her left ear and immediately stopped the topic. She looked ahead and asked, "How could it be? Why are there still people in this village now?"
Gu Mingtai, who was following behind her, was also staring at the front, with his eyes half-closed, staring without blinking.
"I'll go over and take a look first. You two stay here." After saying this, Gu Mingtai walked ahead in the direction where the noise was happening.
Following the noise, he came to a dilapidated thatched hut.
Compared with the pitch-black thatched huts around it, there was a ray of fire in this room.
Gu Mingtai walked to the window and took a look inside. There were three people inside, one of whom was the uncle Liu they were looking for.
But at this time, Uncle Liu looked extremely embarrassed.
There was another woman next to Uncle Liu, her face covered with tears, with a piece of cloth stuffed in her mouth, making a whimpering sound.
There was another man in a house not far from them, a man that people would never want to look at again after seeing him once. His face was covered with scars and he looked extremely hideous.
"Okay, stop crying. Cry, cry, you've been crying for so many days. You won't get tired of crying, but I'm tired of hearing you. I tell you, it's a blessing for you two that I can choose you two. Others who want me to choose them don't have this blessing yet."
"You bastard, let us go quickly. I tell you, my niece is a fortune teller. She will definitely find me. I advise you to let me go right now, and I can spare your life." Uncle Liu, who was tied to a chair, cursed in a weak voice.
The man turned his head and laughed, "Witch! I've never been afraid of her. Once this thing of mine succeeds, I won't be afraid of a witch, let alone a god." After saying that, a crazy light flashed in the man's eyes.
The woman's face turned even paler with fright, and her tears flowed even more violently.
Gu Mingtai, who was hiding under the window, was watching intently when he suddenly heard a noise beside him. He was startled and was about to take out his gun when he heard a familiar low voice in his ear, "It's me."
Seeing who was coming, Gu Mingtai immediately gave back the gun he had half drawn. He quickly pulled her to squat under the window and lowered his voice, "Didn't I tell you to stay outside with the witch and don't come over? Why are you disobeying me again?"
Zhang Meng smiled awkwardly, "I was worried that you couldn't handle it alone."
Having said this, she stretched her neck to take a look inside the window, but before she saw anything, the man next to her pulled her back.
"Don't look at it, or you'll get scared." Gu Mingtai said domineeringly.
Zhang Meng looked towards him and asked, "Have you seen my uncle?"
Gu Mingtai nodded, "He's inside, there are three of them."
Hearing that it was Uncle Liu, Zhang Meng breathed a sigh of relief and then came up again, grabbing his arm and continuing to ask, "How is Uncle Liu? Is he still alive?"
“Alive.”
After hearing his answer, Zhang Meng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Where's the witch?" Gu Mingtai glanced back. "She didn't follow us."
Zhang Meng replied. At this moment, a woman's frightened scream was heard from inside.
"No, please don't."
"Hey, you pervert, let her go. Are you still a man? You're bullying a woman. Come and bully me if you dare."
Then came the angry curses from Uncle Liu.
"Gu Mingtai." Hearing Uncle Liu's cursing becoming weaker and weaker, Zhang Meng grabbed Gu Mingtai's arm and shouted at him.
Gu Mingtai's face darkened and he stood up. "You stand here, I'll go in."
Zhang Meng immediately grabbed his arm and said, "No, I'll go in with you."
"Who is it?" At this time, the man inside heard the noise outside.
Gu Mingtai hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly.
Zhang Meng's face lit up with joy, and she immediately followed him into the creepy little house in front of her.
When Uncle Liu, who was tied up in the room, saw the two people coming in, his eyes immediately lit up, bursting with desire for life, and he shouted happily, "Xiao Meng, Xiao Gu."
