[White Snake] Catch the Snake
Chapter 32 The Haunted Village
The three gathered in the lobby of the inn, and Bai Suzhen threw Xiaoqing's troubles to Fa Hai, but Fa Hai's answer was exactly what he wanted.
While waiting for breakfast, Fa Hai listened to Bai Suzhen finish talking about Xiao Qing's troubles. After Bai Suzhen finished speaking, Fa Hai laughed: "I thought there was some problem, so it's just this?"
What he said made Xiaoqing unhappy: "What do you mean 'it's just this'?" This may not be a problem for Fa Hai, but it bothers her very much.
Fa Hai quickly waved his hand: "That's not what I mean, what I mean is, since you can't find the answer, you might as well go around and look around, maybe your mood will become brighter? Since you can't recognize it, then Don't think about it, this time we go to Fenghuang again, just to relax, so we don't have to think about those weird things."
In the end, Fahai got back his words, and Xiao Qingsui was dissatisfied with what the other party said was a "weird thing", but in the end Fahai also had good intentions, so she didn't have to blame him for anything.
After hearing Fa Hai's thoughts, Bai Suzhen nodded. That's fine. If she returns to Hangzhou City like this, Xiaoqing will inevitably not think about it. How about traveling all the way to the mountains and rivers, so that her mind can be broadened? Better.
So Bai Suzhen smiled and said: "I also think Fahai's attention is good, Xiaoqing, let's go and have a look! Of course, if you don't want to go to Fenghuang, we can still go to other places, right?"
As she spoke, she glanced at Fa Hai as if seeking advice, and Fa Hai nodded upon seeing this: "Of course, there are so many great rivers and mountains in China, so we don't necessarily have to go to one place?"
Xiao Qing didn't pay attention, but nodded slightly, apparently agreeing to one of the two, but Bai Suzhen looked at Fa Hai in surprise: "China?"
Fa Hai was slightly taken aback: "I mean the Central Plains, you should understand that!"
Bai Suzhen suddenly realized: "So you call the Central Plains China!"
Fahai wanted to explain it, but it was obviously not the time to talk about it, because they were talking about Xiaoqing, so he had to say: "It's a long story, anyway, at our time, the entire Central Plains They were all unified, so it’s called China.”
Bai Suzhen nodded, and at this moment, Xiaoqing spoke up: "I think... let's continue to go to Fenghuang!"
She spoke suddenly and interrupted what Bai Suzhen and Fa Hai were saying. Bai Suzhen was stunned for a moment, and then immediately asked, "Xiaoqing, are you sure? Are you going to Fenghuang?"
Xiaoqing looked up at Bai Suzhen and Fa Hai, then nodded firmly, and then smiled again: "Sister, don't worry, I don't want to go to Phoenix to find Ah Cai, anyway... I don't recognize you either. Who is who? I just want to go to that place to have a look, Fenghuang...should be some distance away from Hangzhou, right? I just think...we have to go anyway, so why don't we go a little farther to have a look."
Seeing what Xiaoqing said, Bai Suzhen didn't have any doubts anymore, since Xiaoqing had already thought about it, she, as an elder sister, was naturally happy for her.
"In this case, let's go after breakfast and buy some dry food!" Fa Hai made a decision. Since we are going to go to other places, we must prepare food and water, and no one knows what will happen. You won’t encounter the problem of sleeping in the wild again. No one knows if you can hunt any animals, so you must prepare some necessary things.
Seeing that Fa Hai had already made a decision, Bai Suzhen couldn't help laughing and said, "You are more active than us."
"That's right! It's rare to see pure natural and pollution-free scenic spots in this era!" Fa Hai said something Bai Suzhen couldn't understand, pure natural and pollution-free?what is that?
After breakfast, the three of them went to Zhouzhuang Town to buy some dry food, then returned to the inn and checked out their rooms, and continued on the road in their carriage.
This time, Fa Hai was still driving in front, and Bai Suzhen stopped being polite to him, and sat in the car with Xiaoqing directly.
Fa Hai drove the horse out of the small town of Zhouzhuang slowly. Anyway, everyone was not in a hurry, so he was not in a hurry. After the carriage got on the official road, Fa Hai opened the curtain to talk to Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing: " I said let's walk slowly like this, since everyone is not in a hurry, but I have to say something first, Fenghuang is not an ordinary distance from Zhouzhuang, so be prepared that it will take more than a month to get there!"
In fact, this is also an estimated distance. In his era, there were planes that could do it, and it might take about an hour to arrive, but now...
Perhaps halfway through the carriage they would have to travel by water!
Bai Suzhen laughed and said, "As long as Xiaoqing is happy, I don't care."
Since it doesn't matter, it's fine, Fa Hai raised the corner of his mouth: "Then let's take a look around along the way!"
On the contrary, Xiaoqing tugged at Bai Suzhen's sleeve, leaned into her ear and asked, "But sister, what about the Baicao cottage in Hangzhou?"
Bai Suzhen smiled: "Didn't Dr. Li watch it for us?"
"It's just... if it's been too long..." If it's too long, and Dr. Li doesn't help, what if he still takes Baicao Cottage as his own?
"Xiaoqing, there are some things I have never told you. It's not that I don't believe you, but that I don't know how to tell you. But Xiaoqing, you have to believe that my sister will not harm you."
Bai Suzhen suddenly said this irrelevant sentence, which made Xiaoqing a little confused: "Sister, what are you talking about?"
Bai Suzhen smiled: "I mean, it doesn't matter if we leave Hangzhou to live in other places. The Central Plains world is vast and abundant, and there is always a place for us to live. Why do we have to stay in Hangzhou? Baicao Cottage is closed in Hangzhou." It doesn't matter whether it is occupied by someone else, we can go to other places to open medical clinics!"
In her previous life, she imprisoned herself by Xu Xian's side, and also in Hangzhou City. As Fa Hai said, there are many places to go in this Central Plains. In this life, she doesn't want to just live in Hangzhou City.
Although there was no intention of avoiding Xu Xian in this, it was impossible for her to have a relationship with Xu Xian in this life, but even so, why did she choose to stay in Hangzhou City where Xu Xian existed?
Xiaoqing was stunned for a moment: "Sister, what you mean is... Maybe you won't be in Hangzhou anymore?"
Bai Suzhen thought for a while, then shook her head: "I don't know, and I'm not sure about this, but instead of staying in Hangzhou City all our lives while learning how to behave, why don't we take a good look at it?"
Now that Bai Suzhen has already made such a decision, Xiaoqing doesn't care. She has always stayed by Bai Suzhen's side, and she will go wherever she goes. What's more, Xiaoqing's feelings for Hangzhou are not too deep, after all... …she has no memories from a previous life.
"Then I will naturally follow my sister, and I will go wherever my sister goes." Xiaoqing didn't think about anything else, and sometimes thinking too much would only annoy herself.
At noon, the carriage finally stopped, and Fa Hai lifted the curtain again: "There seems to be a tea shed on the official road ahead, do you want to drink some tea and play a game?"
Bai Suzhen smiled and said, "You want to rest, right?"
Fa Hai didn't refute, "I've been driving for so long, can you give me some rest?"
"I didn't ask you to drive all the time. Since we are going to drink tea, let's all go!" It was a bit boring to stay in the carriage all the time, so Bai Suzhen and Xiaoqing got out of the carriage, tied up the horses and went with Fa Hai In the tea shed.
Since it is a tea shed, it is naturally a place to drink tea, and there is no shop in front of this official road. The tea shed is here, which means that there must be a place to live not far away. After Fahai ordered tea, he directly Ask the person who opened the tea shed: "This shop owner, do you know where there is a place for people to live here?"
The shopkeeper took a look at the three of them and saw that the two women and one man were driving a carriage, and they must be going to other places, so they said: "There is a village not far away, but it's a pity that there are not many people in the village now."
"The store owner is from that village?" Fahai asked again.
The other party quickly waved his hand: "Me? No, no, I'm not from that village. My family lives behind that village. It's said..."
The shopkeeper's expression was a bit strange, which made Bai Suzhen and the three of them look at each other, did something happen?
After all, Fahai was more direct: "What's wrong with that village?"
The shop owner showed a mysterious expression: "It is said...that village is haunted! When it gets dark, the whole village is crying and howling. I don't know why. Therefore, my stall must be closed before dark. Just hurry back to your home, if it's night, I wouldn't dare to pass by there at all."
"Oh?" Fahai became interested: "Haunted?"
If other ordinary people listened to it, they might just laugh. How can there be ghosts in this world?However, Fa Hai and the other three are not ordinary people, so they don't think that what the other party said is a lie.
The shopkeeper nodded again and again: "I think they are all good people, but don't go to that village to stay! It's better to go far than anywhere."
At this time, Xiaoqing spoke up: "Then, shopkeeper, why do you dare to live behind that village? Are you not afraid of something happening? Why don't you move?"
The shopkeeper sighed: "Hey, girl, do you think I don't want to? It's just that although the city is safer and more convenient, how can there be so good houses there? It's dangerous to live here, but the houses and everything are our own family. It doesn’t cost a lot of money to build it brick by brick, otherwise, how can I live in the city with the money I sell tea?”
Hearing this, several people nodded: "So that's the case."
When the shopkeeper left, Fahai took a look at the two of them: "How is it? Do you want to go and see? See what the hell it is?"
Xiaoqing chuckled lightly: "Just go!"
Seeing the two of them like this, Bai Suzhen couldn't help shaking her head and sighing softly.
After the three of them quenched their thirst, they set up the carriage again and headed towards the village that the shopkeeper said. After the shopkeeper found out that several people had left, they found a gold bar left on the seat they were sitting on.
While waiting for breakfast, Fa Hai listened to Bai Suzhen finish talking about Xiao Qing's troubles. After Bai Suzhen finished speaking, Fa Hai laughed: "I thought there was some problem, so it's just this?"
What he said made Xiaoqing unhappy: "What do you mean 'it's just this'?" This may not be a problem for Fa Hai, but it bothers her very much.
