"Although I was mentally prepared in advance, I didn't expect this xenophobia to be so serious." Xie Jin pushed the instant food cans he had just taken out of his backpack towards the two of them, and they tacitly did not touch the ones brought by Li Yougui. those pancakes.

Under the steady light of the windbreaker, Ji Duan and Wen Liang each opened the cans and ate them in silence. They had not imagined the current situation. It was nothing to eat cold shoulder as soon as they entered the village, and the current situation was also nothing.Too bad, at least they came in and took the opportunity to live in the old house of Li Yougui's house.

No one spoke for a while, the empty old house only had this little light source, several people sat around the table with the windproof lamp, and there were occasional sounds of spoons scraping cans in the huge main hall.

"So, what's the next plan?" Wen Liang put down the emptied can and broke the brief silence. He looked at Xie Jin's worried profile and said in a low voice, "I said before that this group of people took us into the The village must have some purpose, so even if we have already entered the village, we can't sit still."

"Yeah, we have to figure out the situation. At least start by getting close to the villagers." Xie Jin subconsciously glanced at the half-open wooden window. It was very dark at night in Badong Village. People, so did not install any lighting facilities.

"I think we should start with the villagers first..." Since the team accident, Xie Jin has never taken on the leading role. He has become cautious subconsciously, and no longer has the decisive decision of the past.

"Yes, but we don't need to start with ordinary villagers." Wen Liangfan looked at the things Li Yougui sent, and found an inconspicuous note in the bag of vegetable cakes. He held the note in his hand and held it in front of the lamp. Look, that's a row of numbers.

"It's a mobile phone number. This guy seems to want to communicate with us in private." Wen Liang slapped the note on the table, and then said loudly to the window that Xie Jin was looking at just now, "Come out, you still want to How long are you hiding there?"

The cool wind blowing through the hall made the wooden windows slam, like a sudden shake in the dark night, and then turned into a fast shadow, turning in through the window.

The shadow gradually changed from a slender animal shape to a human appearance, and when he walked within the aperture of the windproof lamp, Xie Jin discovered that the person turned out to be Li Yougui.

"You, when did you hide there?" Xie Jin was too astonished. It was only an hour ago that Li Yougui came here, which means that from then until now, he has been hiding under the window, eavesdropping on their conversation?

Li Yougui didn't respond to Xie Jin's question, but walked over and sat down without a chair, his triangular eyes that were always hanging up were also very peaceful at this time, "How did you find me? I think I hide my breath very well. it is good."

"I've always had a good nose, so I'm good at finding things." Wen Liang's answer was also half-truth, "So you've been eavesdropping on the wall for so long, are you trying to tell us something?"

Li Yougui's expression wrinkled at a speed visible to the naked eye, but he soon relaxed again, as if he had given up on something, "Who said I came to provide you with information? Suspicious behavior, so I came to monitor."

His damn prostitute stubborn attitude proves that his real purpose is not so, Wen Liang didn't break it, just smiled lightly, and then pointed to Xie Jin: "If you want to understand the purpose of our coming here...Excuse me, he is the team leader of our trip."

"What...?" Xie Jin suddenly received the topic thrown by Wen Liang, and was a little incoherent for a while, and there was a sharp line of sight in front of him, he knew that Li Yougui was looking at him.

Li Yougui probably didn't guess that Xie Jin was the main speaker among the three. He raised his eyebrows in surprise, but his expression was distorted: "Are you the captain?"

"Uh...yes, I'm the captain." Xie Jin could only quickly clear up his emotions, and replied with the most similar voice as possible, "Our purpose was mentioned when we first met, and Badong Village believes in Shaman, we hope to meet the younger brother who is the head of the village."

"Impossible, you can meet casually when you are younger brother?" Li Yougui directly refused, and he looked at Xie Jin even more strangely, "And what do you want to do when you look for younger brother as soon as you come up?"

"I just want to know something, why are you so surprised? We are not some vicious villains, and we won't do anything to your brother Ma." Wen Liang waved his hand, as if he was very strange about Li Yougui's questioning.

The flesh at the end of Li Yougui's eyes twitched, he looked at Wen Liang in disbelief, he didn't expect that this person would say such a thing, it was... a little shameless. Although they were the ones who attacked first in the camp outside the village, there were not many people who grabbed Zhao Guangsheng's neck with their backhands and quickly broke his formation.

The white-haired man in front of him, who behaved strangely in every way, was definitely the first one he knew.

"Why, there's something on my face?" Probably because of being stared at, Wen Liang turned his gaze back to Li Yougui, and after seeing Li Yougui shaking his head, he snorted softly, "Without you staring at me , is it difficult to take us to see brother Ma?"

"...Anyway, it's unlikely." Li Yougui shrank his neck, and his face with protruding cheekbones showed a little fear, "Even if I can really take you there, brother Ma won't meet strangers from outside. Village, this village has always been like this."

Li Yougui lowered his head slightly, his eyes couldn't help looking at the windproof lamp which was the only light source in the house, the warm yellow light flickered slightly in his eyes, and he could vaguely hear the crackling of sparks.

"What's this like? Why does your village reject outsiders?" Ji Duanwu asked himself, looking at Li Yougui's face that was obviously hiding something, and asked expressionlessly.

The old house fell into a brief silence again, and among the few people sitting around the table, only He Nian made a sound—he peeled off another chocolate wrapper, and did not participate in their cross-examination.

Li Yougui remained silent for a long time and still did not give an answer. His lips moved repeatedly, but in the end they were still tightly closed, refusing to say a word.

"Okay, let me change the question." Ji Duan frowned habitually. He leaned closer to the table and folded his hands to support his chin. "How do we build a good relationship with the villagers until we can get close to Brother Ma?" .”

"You said how to build a good relationship...?" Li Yougui's face could not be tense. He looked at several people and found that there seemed to be no other normal people besides himself.

"You have to listen to people carefully. I have already said that the people in our village are tired of life. No matter what you do, it is impossible to get in touch with them." Li Yougui said helplessly, flicking his hair, "Because in this village Except for at least four generations of ancestors, almost no outsiders have entered the village in such a long time."

For at least nearly a hundred years, this village has never had contact with outsiders? Xie Jin suddenly remembered the story told by the middle-aged woman, he opened his mouth, hesitantly asked again.

"When we were staying at Heavenly River Town, we heard a story. In 1945... that is, seventy-five years ago, there was an hunter who was hunting in the mountains as usual, and happened to run into a plainclothes army, and he followed after him.In Badong Village, have you heard of this?"

Xie Jin briefly described the core content of the story to Li Yougui, but Li Yougui raised his bald eyebrows and replied with disdain: "Seventy-five years ago, even my grandfather was a little boy who only knew how to roll in the mud. Bastard, if I knew what happened back then, there would be ghosts."

Now the silent person was replaced by Xie Jin, he scratched his face in embarrassment, and realized that the question he asked seemed a bit abrupt.

"However, it seems that there is such a thing." Li Yougui's voice changed, and he held his chin to recall carefully, "There was such a thing in 1945, but the version is not exactly the same as what you heard. That army should They are people from our village. Although we didn’t worry about safety during the war, but in those years when natural disasters and man-made disasters happened, the harvest in the mountains was not as good as outside, so some people came out of the mountains to buy grain as troops.”

"Are you still out of the mountain?" Wen Liang interjected, and he looked at Li Yougui with an exaggerated expression of disbelief, to prove how surprised he was by this matter.

Li Yougui subconsciously moved to the side, he took out a silver-gray mobile phone from his pocket, and quickly swayed it in front of Wen Liang, "Going out, going out of the mountain is nothing, haven't you seen the base station next to the village? Because of it, we will change into casual clothes and go out from time to time, and we are not primitive people.”

"It turns out you didn't realize the problem at all." Seeing Li Yougui's natural face, Wen Liang pointed to the tip of his nose, "If the people in Badong Village are really xenophobic, why would they go to other towns from time to time, or even Don’t you think you’re a double standard for getting a signal base station at any cost and manpower, talking xenophobic words but enjoying the convenience brought by the outside world?”

"Double..." Li Yougui was rendered speechless by Wen Liang's words, but he dared not speak out, so he could only put the phone back in his pocket and stare fiercely at the hurricane lamp.

"Stop staring, you will stare through the lights in a while." Ji Duan gave Wen Liang a thumbs up while Li Yougui was in a daze. He took Wen Liang's words and continued, "Let me tell you, your village The people there are also quite strange.”

"Our arrival not only disgusts them, does it? While resisting us entering the village as outsiders, while peeping from behind the window, whether it is novelty or disgust, I don't think even you can figure it out."

Ji Duan raised his chin slightly, and he has never lost to others in terms of speaking, "For example, you, who obviously came to attack us in the first place, are sitting at the same table with us and talking about these things. What nonsense, are you here to tell us some strange stories about the mountain village?"

The two of you said one sentence to another, and Li Yougui completely lost his voice. He was like a water-soaked squib, halfway burning vigorously, and suddenly stopped making a sound.

"...Do you think I want to?" Li Yougui exerted strength without warning, and he slapped the wooden table at hand, which made several empty cans "clang", "Do I just want to stay in this place all the time?" In the village, will I live my whole life in the deep mountains and old forests? I am also a young man in his early twenties, and I am also yearning for the outside world, but can I go out?"

When Li Yougui said this, he kept his head down the whole time. Ji Duan and Wen Liang looked at each other, making sure that this aggressive trick was effective, and then followed his words to ask questions.

"What do you mean? Why can't you go out, what are you bound to this village?"

"Hehehe... You asked me what I was raped for." Li Yougui laughed in a deep voice, he grabbed his hair, then suddenly raised his head and looked at the three people around him, "Of course it was me."

Wen Liang: I don't think he is in his early twenties, why is he older than me?

Ji Duan: Second, it really doesn't look like it.

Xie Jin: Stop talking, you two!

Li Yougui: (-_-)? ? ?
