Chapter 161

"Is it the old lady who came to close her husband's house this morning?" Gu Chen clearly recognized her.

As a person with a specialized memory, Gu Chen can now clearly identify a person who has observed for more than five seconds within a week.

The wind is blowing.

Roadside garbage began to fly with the wind

The vegetable merchants put the unsold vegetables into small three rounds and left helplessly.

If it doesn't rain, the vendors may be able to sell for another hour.

But now, it's going to rain hard. If you don't go, you'll be drenched.

Many people didn't bring rain protection tools. This is the case with this old lady.

"How do you sell the vegetables?" Gu Chen goes up to ask her.

In the dark, the old lady looked very haggard. There was only a flashlight beside her, and the light was very weak.

It can be seen that they usually rub the lamp of the restaurant next to him. Now that the restaurant nearby has left, it becomes extremely dark here.

The skinny old lady held her knees in her hands and slowly raised her head and said, "two yuan a kilo. If you want to make it cheaper, it's the last one."

"All." Gu Chen reached into his pocket and found only a fifty dollar bill.

He knew that the old lady didn't have mobile payment and couldn't play.

The old lady was very slow. Gu Chen squatted down to look for the bag and packed it by herself. Then she said, "don't weigh it. The money should be enough."

"There should be about ten catties here. I'll give you the change." The old lady is very persistent.

"No, take the money." Gu Chen looked at the sky and said, "it's going to rain. You'd better hurry home."

"Thank you for smashing." The old lady spoke weakly and slowly picked up her things.

After Gu Chen got up and left, he found that the road was empty, and the dry road around him began to be gradually wet by rain.

Soon, the huge raindrops began to fall drop by drop.

Gu Chen looks back anxiously at the old lady. She is still collecting things there.

Action It's still very slow.

Gu Chen no longer hesitated. He turned around and ran back again. He held all the old lady's things in his hand and said, "go to the eaves first to avoid the rain."

Five minutes later

When the heavy rain came, Gu Chen and the old lady hid in the door of the closed shop, waiting for the rain to recede.

"Where is the old lady from?" Gu Chen tries to find topics to avoid this embarrassing atmosphere.

He found that he did not speak, and the old lady did not speak at all.

"Boy, have you heard of Liu village?"

"Liu village?" Gu Chen tried to recall this place. He seemed to have heard of it, but he was not impressed.

Listening to the old lady's accent, she should also be a native of Jiangnan City, and naliu village should also belong to Jiangnan City.

After clearing his mind, Gu Chen asked, "which town does Liucun belong to?"

"It seems that you don't know about the ghost in Liucun." The old lady shook her head with a smile, as if there was something in it.

Gu Chen hums and laughs twice: "old lady, do you still believe in this year?"

When it comes to superstitions and things like that, the elderly, especially the elderly, are still very superstitious.

But from her mouth to say Liu village, seems to have happened something, but Gu Chen certainly does not know.

"Liucun belongs to Meishan Town, which is dozens of miles away from the center of the town. Our whole village is surrounded by a small river, blocking the road to the outside world."

"How do you usually get out? Don't you build bridges? " Asked Gu Chen.

The old lady shook her head and went on: "we have preserved the original appearance of ancient simplicity for generations. A hundred years ago, a big willow tree along the river was cut down by thunder and crossed the river. But since then, the willow has miraculously come back to life, and its branches have become a natural bridge for people in Liucun village to cross the river."

Gu Chen listens more and more vigorously, heart says this Liu village, originally still have this layer of meaning.

There are indeed many villages with stories like this in Jiangnan City.

Although some of the village stories are made up for the sake of village culture, there is no such thing as village culture.

Interest is always the driving force of the trend people.

But the old lady doesn't look like that kind of person, which shows that Liu village is still somewhat elegant.

"The tourism resources of your hometown It should be rich. " Gu Chen began to fill the beautiful picture.

You know, there are many characteristic ancient villages in Jiangnan City. Gu Chen also wants to find an opportunity to travel with his family.

"Well, it's very good. Our village is a natural blessing." The old lady said that she was very interested, but suddenly sighed: "but in recent six months, I don't know what's going on. I've been haunted by ghosts."

Speaking of this, the old lady sighed slightly and said, "in the past, there used to be artists who sketched from nature and came to visit in groups. But now the ghost things are becoming more and more serious. Some even say that Liucun is a ghost village, and that willow tree is unlucky. We should move out of the village collectively, otherwise the people living there will die.""Who is so boring?" Gu Chen once listen, also do not have good airway.

Originally a good village, who dares to go? It is obvious that someone is making a rumor.

"You are wrong again, young man."

"Am I wrong again?"

"Well." The old lady's haggard face looked very calm: "Liu village is no longer suitable for people to live in."

"Why?" Gu Chen frowned and decided to continue to ask.

"There's no reason. If you ask me why, I don't know." The old lady seemed reluctant to mention it.

The rain is getting smaller, and some stray dogs pass by from time to time to look for food in the garbage.

Gu Chen is now more and more curious about Liucun.

The natural curiosity, coupled with the old lady's half talk, is equivalent to half of a good variety show, and all of a sudden, advertisements begin to appear.

This is a kind of torture for ordinary people, but for Gu Chen, it is a kind of suffering.

"Old lady, can you tell me more about the situation of Liucun in the past six months? Maybe I can help you

The old lady pondered for a long time, and then gradually relaxed and said, "I also see that your young man is very good. OK, then grandma will tell you about it."

Gu Chen folded a sack and put it on the steps: "you sit down!"

"Strange to say." After sitting down, the old lady also pondered for a moment: "we have an ancient temple in Liucun village. Although it is a bit old, it has experienced the wind and frost for a hundred years. The worn-out stone statues of mountain gods in the temple have always protected our peace."

"But I don't know what happened recently. In the past six months, all the small animals near the ancient temple began to die strangely. As usual, when villagers go to pick herbs and fruits in the mountains, they will rest near the ancient temple, and the children will often go to the ancient temple to play hide and seek."

"It's impossible now. Anyone who wants to stay near the ancient temple for a long time will die. Undoubtedly, my wife has been cultivating land around the ancient temple for a long time. Soon after those small animals died, he died. Even the doctors couldn't find out the reason. We all said that it was the wandering spirits in the mountains who were doing strange things."

"Therefore, since then, people in the village have not dared to approach the ancient temple at will. Some even say that after the fall of the willow tree, the ghosts that were originally under control began to come out and do strange things."

"In addition, many people in the village are inexplicably ill. At night, we often hear some strange sounds coming from the ancient temple. They are frightening and many people are scared away."

The old lady spoke slowly and for a long time. After that, she was still in a state of palpitation, and her face even showed a look of shock.

Gu Chen coughed and coughed twice, and laughed to break the frightening atmosphere.

It was a good chat. Why did the old lady begin to tell ghost stories?

Of course, is there something else in this? Gu Chen doesn't know now.

It can only be said that the results will not come out until after the investigation.

If Liu village is really like the old lady said, it is a series of strange events caused by the fall of willow trees, it seems that it is a bit of bullshit.

Looking up at the sky, Gu Chen asked, "old lady, where do you live now? I can carry things for you. "

"No, young man. I rent a house nearby. I usually order vegetables at the wholesale vegetable market. I can sell as much as I can. Anyway, Liu village can't go back. You'd better go home quickly."

"It's OK." Gu Chen looked down at his watch. It was very late. He gave a few words and turned away.

Back home, Comrade Gu Baichuan and Ms. Xiao Xiaofang watched their son walk into the house with a big bag of vegetables. They were also confused.

"Son, what kind of food did you buy? So much? " MS Xiao Xiaofang said she was shocked.

Even if my son likes to eat vegetables, he doesn't need to buy so many at once!

"I saw an old man selling vegetables by the side of the road. It was the last point, so I bought them all." Gu Chen is also a simple explanation.

To him, it means to raise a hand, but to the old lady, it may be the question of how long she can go home.

"All right, put it by the refrigerator. We're not going to buy meat this week. We'll only eat vegetables."

Comrade Gu Baichuan gave up and said, "Gu Chen, if you look at your good work, you don't know how to buy some meat to go home?"

"Well, I'll remember next time." Gu Chen said and went to find clothes, ready to go to the bathroom to shower.

Xiao Xiaofang quickly stopped: "don't let my son buy vegetables. This boy never asks about the price. An old lady is OK. If there are a bunch of old ladies, he can retail and wholesale people."

After all, the son is his own. MS Xiao Xiaofang knows who Gu Chen is.

People try their best to bargain for vegetables, but Gu Chen's buying vegetables is more like charity, which can't be hurt.

After taking a bath, Gu Chen's tiredness disappeared. He sat in his room, opened his mobile phone map, and began to look for the location of Liu village in Jiangnan City.

Yes, there is a place called Liu village 20 kilometers north of Meishan Town, which was publicized last time.Liu village is surrounded by mountains and water. It has primitive forests that block out the sun and towering mountains.

From the picture, the rivers here are spotless, just like the fairyland yaochi, and the structure of ancient villages is also very particular.

According to the law, living in this fairyland, the local villagers should live a long life. Where will the strange death happen?

"This matter, tomorrow to work, we must react with senior brother Wang." Gu Chen frowned and opened the transcript. He recorded what he had heard from the old lady tonight in the form of words.

If you can, Gu Chen is willing to go to Liucun to investigate the situation to see if it is really like the old lady said.

After finishing all the work, Gu Chen collected his things and went to the living room to accompany his family.

He knew that his parents were getting old day by day, so they could only say that they could accompany each other day by day.

On the sofa, Comrade Gu Baichuan and Ms. Xiao Xiaofang, watching the idol drama of the tyrannical president ten years ago, could even laugh out pig calls. Gu Chen shook his head helplessly.

"Mom."

"Well?"

"Borrow the nail clipper in your hand and I'll use it." Gu Chen said.

Xiao Xiaofang was absent-minded: "what do you want nail clippers for?"

Gu Chen squinted and said helplessly, "I want to Kill the dragon. "

"Kill the dragon?" Xiao Xiaofang's eyes finally returned to Gu Chen's body: "can that little thing kill a dragon?"

"Then I can only use it to cut my nails."

Xiao Xiaofang: "you didn't say that earlier."
