Everyone in Peijia Village was very happy. After waking up from a night's sleep, all their illnesses were cured and they couldn't contain their joy.

After searching for people from Peijia Village outside for a whole night, everyone's mood was no longer so good.

Is it possible that I am stuck in a maze?

It's already been a whole night, and I've circled the nearby mountains and forests twice, but I still haven't seen the village that should exist on the map.

One hundred and fifty households! It’s not too many, but not too few either. How could there be no visible population in this village?

But that's the truth.

There was nothing but grass and vines. There was no sign of a village at all.

It was almost noon.

A group of commune cadres also came, and Pei Guochao was also notified to return to his hometown overnight.

At this moment, he had just got out of the bumpy Jeep, covered in dust.

"Report to the commander! Pei Guochao reports to you!"

"Come here, take a look, is your hometown here? How come our people can't find the entrance to your village?"

When Pei Guochao first heard the notice saying that there was an order from above for him to immediately return to his hometown, Peijia Village, to cooperate with urgent military affairs, he was a little confused.

Thinking of Mo Yan's coldness and warning, he wanted to refuse, but this was a military order.

Although he has retired now, he feels that even after retirement, he will always be a soldier.

When the motherland needs us, we must go.

So she rushed here at dawn despite Chen Wanyu's objection.

As a result, as soon as he arrived at the place, before he had time to ask what was going on, the old leader pulled him aside and asked him if his hometown was here.

Pei Guochao felt that the old leader would never joke about something like a military order. Why did he send him here in such a hurry? Was it just to ask where his home was?

"What are you daydreaming about, kid? Just tell me, is this the way to your home?"

After being glared at again, Pei Guochao finally realized that the old leader was serious.

He did not dare to hesitate and hurriedly looked back at the road he had come from. In fact, without looking, he knew that there was only one way to Peijia Village, which was the road behind him, and there was no mistake at all.

But when he looked straight ahead again, he himself became a little uncertain.

Because the scenery and scenes I saw were so unfamiliar.

this--

No, it should be less than three or four miles to the entrance of their village.

How did we get into the woods?

Pei Guochao couldn't help but look back at the way he came, and then at the road ahead, he was a little dumbfounded.

Could it be that they didn't look carefully on the way here, and they just took a route similar to the one to Peijia Village?

Isn't this Peijia Village ahead on the road at all?

"Pei Guochao, is this your hometown?"

Pei Guochao said nothing.

I thought quickly in my mind that there couldn't be a second way back to Peijia Village.

"Old Chief, this road is the way back to Peijia Village, but I don't know when this place became a forest. It was not like this when I left home last time."

"When was the last time you left home?"

People asked.

Pei Guochao thought about it, 10 days ago?

But he didn't dare to say this.

Let alone 10 days, such a lush and green forest cannot grow like this without thirty to fifty years.

"Why don't you answer?"

"Reporting to the commander, less than 10 days."

Everyone:...

As expected, everyone looked at him as if he were a fool.

Pei Guochao knew that if he said this, everyone would think he was crazy.

"Then this is really your hometown, Peijia Village, right?"

"Reporting to the commander, yes, our Peijia Village is the most remote in the entire Luoxia Commune. This mountain road that can run ox carts was also opened up bit by bit by the young and strong men in our village over a period of more than ten years. I built this road in my hometown before I joined the army, so I am very familiar with this road and it is impossible for me to make a mistake."

"Leader, you see, we didn't lie. This is really Peijia Village. I just don't know how it suddenly turned into a forest. Do you think it's possible that we have encountered a special situation that cannot be explained by science?"

This is a cadre in the commune. If Village Chief Pei were here, he would be able to recognize him. This person is none other than Officer Wu, who registered Niu Niu and Alai, and also the deputy secretary of the commune.

I clearly wanted to say that I was trapped in a maze, but I had to use scientific words to describe it euphemistically.

Chief Xiao and others wanted to say that this was clearly absurd and nonsense.

But from last night to noon today, nearly 10 hours have passed, and we haven't even found the entrance to a village. Moreover, after escaping this dense forest, we are directly at Shennong Mountain. Going further in, we can see traces of the fire from Qinhou Mountain from afar.

From this we can see that the orientation is definitely correct.

The only problem is: the village has mysteriously disappeared.

Replaced by a forest!

He wanted to say that there couldn't be any supernatural powers in the world, but he couldn't open his mouth.

"Pei Guochao, what do you say?"

What can Pei Guochao say? He is even more confused than them!

But a figure flashed through his mind subconsciously. Although there was no evidence, he felt that if there was something that science could not explain, it must be related to that woman Mo Yan.

All of this might just be a trick she created.

But he didn't know how she managed to come up with such a convincing disguise that fooled everyone's eyes and senses.

Thinking of this, Pei Guochao had the urge to expose her trick.

He saw himself striding towards the dense and lush forest. He didn't believe that the village would disappear.

result--

The next second, something unexpected happened!

A vine that was originally wrapped around the trunk of a big tree and grew on the tree suddenly seemed to come alive. It stretched out automatically and rolled up Pei Guochao.

The next moment, Pei Guochao was hung upside down.

At this moment, everyone was dumbfounded.

What’s going on? Is there a trap in the woods?

But the person standing in front, who had been following Pei Guochao's sight from the beginning, saw clearly that it was not a trap, but the vine was attacking people actively and spontaneously.

Why, how could this happen?

Their soldiers had been searching back and forth in the woods all night and had not encountered any danger. How come Pei Guochao was attacked as soon as he approached?

"Hurry up and save people!"

"Wait, don't come near!"

Pei Guochao hurriedly tried to stop her. He guessed right. It was really Mo Yan who did all this. This woman had warned him not to come back here after leaving Peijia Village, but he didn't listen and came back not long after.

Wasn't this her warning to him?

"I was wrong. I shouldn't have come back. I didn't mean to come back. The troops came to carry out a mission and ordered me to come here urgently. Please let me go first. I promise to leave this place and never set foot here again."

Pei Guochao spoke these words in a very low voice, and only he and the vine that was wrapped around him could hear them.

He didn't know if he was crazy. He actually thought that a vine could understand what he was saying.

It seemed that ever since his mother told him that Mo Yan was not a human, although he said he didn't believe it, he actually believed it in his heart.
