Early on the morning of the third day, Shen Yunze and Shen Yuncan met at the airport and got on the plane to the southwest.

After flying for more than three hours, the plane finally landed at Nancheng Airport.

The two ate something hastily, and got on the train without stopping.

After more than an hour, they arrived at a remote border town.

Because of the remote location of Shiwan Dashan, they got on the bus again and drove all the way to the southwest.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, there were seven or eight boys and girls who looked like college students who got out of the car with Shen Yunze.

It seemed that they were also going into the mountains.

At this moment, there was a man standing far away at the entrance of the mountain.

In his fifties, his gray hair lay sparsely on the top of his head.

He was wearing a black trousers jacket and a turban.

The man looked at Shen Yunze and Shen Yuncan, and then looked at the students behind them.

Immediately strode over here.

At this time, Shen Yunze heard a boy behind him say: "That is the village chief of the village, I have already contacted him."

A girl asked, "Why is there a village chief in the village?"

The boy replied: "Maybe it's because the village is too small, so it's under the trusteeship of the surrounding villages! Anyway, this village is under his management."

Shen Yunze looked back at a group of students not far behind him.

They all carried small bags and drawing boards.

"You guys came here to sketch in the mountains from an art school, right?" Shen Yunze from Sheniu asked with a smile.

The tall boy in the lead nodded: "Yes!"

At this time, a man with a turban came over with a smile on his face.

The tall boy hurried up to meet him: "You are the village chief Qin, right? I'm Ma Jun, and I've contacted you before."

The man wearing the turban nodded quickly: "You have worked hard along the way, welcome! Just call me Lao Tan."

He looked at the group of people again: "Then let's go! I'll take you into the village."

The students nodded.

Shen Yunze rolled his eyes, and quickly asked, "Hey, Village Chief Qin, please ask me, what's the name of the village you're talking about?"

Village Chief Qin looked at him and said, "Xiangyun Village is also called Yazi Village."

Shen Yunze understood.

That was exactly what they were looking for this trip.

Shen Yunze quickly took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and stuffed it into Lao Tan's hand.

"Village Chief, we are here to play in the mountains, and we also want to go to Xiangyun Village. Look, can you bring us with you? Save us from having to look everywhere!"

Lao Tan declined, but still put the pack of cigarettes in his pocket.

He looked at Shen Yunze, then pointed at the students: "I'm their paid guide, you have to ask them if they agree."

Only then did Shen Yunze understand that the village head was still working part-time.

He quickly looked at the leading student Ma Jun with a smile.

"Little brother, in this way, we will share the money you spend equally, okay?"

Ma Jun nodded: "It's okay, you can go with us!"

Shen Yunze quickly thanked: "That's great! Thank you!"

After finishing speaking, he pulled Shen Yuncan to follow the student team and walked into the mountain.

Lao Tan led everyone into the stockade while introducing the situation.

"The road I'm taking you on is the one with the gentlest slope and the best way to go."

"The small village you are going to is not too high in altitude, and there are very few people in the village."

Going up all the way, the beautiful scenery in the mountains gradually unfolds in front of people's eyes.

Stepping on the red land and looking at the lush forest, Shen Yunze and Shen Yuncan are both in a good mood.

Many of the students are probably entering the mountain for the first time, and they are carrying their bags, so they stop and go, and the speed is not fast.

After walking for more than two hours on the mountain road, Lao Tan stretched out his hand and pointed to the hill not far away, and said, "Look, there it is."

Looking up, on the top of the hill in front, there are scattered green tile sloping-roof huts with regional characteristics.

There is no courtyard, and the huts are scattered here and there.

Surrounded by curling smoke, it looks very beautiful.

Shen Yuncan understood, no wonder these art students came here to sketch.

Lao Tan said again: "This village is very small. In fact, it is just twenty or thirty families of the same family name living together, but there are only a hundred people.

"Is there such a small stockade?" A boy asked.

Lao Tan explained: "There were quite a few people, but two years ago, a strange incident happened in the village, and most of them escaped. This place is now attached to our Baoshi Village."

"Oh, what's the strange thing?" A student inquired curiously.

Old Tan: "This village was originally called Xiangyun Village, but it was changed to 'Yanzi Village' two years ago."

Some students asked again: "Are all the residents in this village dumb?"

Old Qin paused and sighed.

"Two years ago, I just came here to take office..."

Lao Tan said that two years ago, he had just been airdropped here from a foreign country, and became the head of Baoshi Village not far from Xiangyun Village.

At that time, Xiangyun Village was also established at the village level.Lao Qin had a good relationship with Lao Huang, the village secretary at the time.

One day, Lao Huang came to Lao Tan in a panic, saying that something strange had happened in their village, so he took him to the village to have a look.

When the two arrived in the village, Lao Huang Huang took Lao Tan to several houses one after another.

The strange thing is that when Lao Huang talked to these people, they didn't answer.

No sound can come out of the mouth, and they seem to have become dumb.

And regardless of men, women, young or old, all looked dull.

Lao Huang told Lao Tan anxiously that many people in the village had become like this overnight.

Lao Tan was also at a loss, and suggested that they go to the county hospital to have a look.

So Lao Huang personally took these people to the hospital.

A doctor's examination found nothing wrong.

In the next few days, many people in the village fell ill one after another.

While this matter was still pending, the village chief Lao Huang disappeared mysteriously.

Some people say that Xiangyunzhai was cursed by the mountain god.

Everyone was scared, and those who did not get sick all moved away with their families.

So now there are less than a hundred people left in the village.

"In the past two years, these people basically have no contact with the outside world, and they are very closed, so they look a bit weird. Don't blame them!"

After listening to Lao Tan's introduction, the leading boy, Ma Jun, muttered in a low voice: "There is such a thing!"

Shen Yunze frowned and clicked his lips.

If, as Lao Tan said, everyone in the village has become dumb, then it will be a bit difficult for him to buy gold meteorites.

He was thinking, when the time comes, he can only gesture with his hands to see if they can understand.

But anyway, have to try!

After walking for a long time, he entered the stockade.

The smoke that was seen from a distance just now came from here.

It looks very fairy from a distance, but it smells a bit choking when you get close.

Shen Yuncan coughed.

"Why is there so much smoke!" he said.

Lao Tan explained: "It may have come out of the fire and cooking. People in the mountains have breakfast early."

There are a few mud brick sloping roof huts in front of me.

"Everyone is gone, the houses here are rich. As long as it is empty, you can all live in it!"

After a pause, Old Tan continued, "You try to talk less to the people in the village. You haven't had contact with the outside world for a long time. They have very strange tempers."
