"Yes, right in front, near a river, is our village."

The little girl pointed to a hillside ahead, which seemed to be some distance away.

Su Anlin stared at the little girl's face intently, observing all her expressions.

But I didn't see anything.

At this moment, Su Anlin became even more strange and asked Wu Shuang, "Is there a village here?"

Wu Shuang shook his head: "I've never heard of it."

"Go over and have a look."

Su Anlin has no other choice now.

"Little girl, how long have you lived here?" Su Anlin asked.

"It's been a long time. Our ancestors have lived here for generations."

"Someone has disappeared here recently, have you seen it?"

The little girl's eyes lit up, "Tell me about those people passing by like you. They have been to our village, but they are all gone."

Su Anlin suddenly felt confident, there was a chance!

"Then do you know where they went?"

The little girl tilted her head and said, "I don't know. I have to go out to collect firewood every day. I don't know what happened to them."

"Then can you take us to the village you mentioned?"

The little girl nodded vigorously: "Okay, the village chief is very good. He will definitely help you."

Su Anlin nodded to several people: "It's settled, let's go there now."

"How can a village exist in such a weird place?"

Wu Shuang frowned. She had researched many events in order to come here, but no one had ever mentioned anything about the village.

However, she had the same idea as Su Anlin, and she was also ready to go and have a look.

In this way, everyone followed the little girl and walked along an unclear path towards a hillside.

On the way, Su Anlin learned that the little girl's name was Fang Xiaohong. Her parents were still alive at home, and she had several brothers and sisters. She was considered prosperous.

In order not to get lost, Su Anlin would tie a piece of cloth on a tree every time he walked a section of the road.

Unknowingly, I finally saw a small river and a small village filled with smoke and birds.

At the entrance of the village, several working people were walking towards the village carrying various farm tools.

At first glance, there is no difference between this village, and Su Anlin can't help but think of the past.

Wasn't the place where he lived like this in the past?

Su Anlin and his group immediately attracted the attention of the villagers, who all looked over.

"Hey, this is... so many outsiders."

Someone noticed Su Anlin's group of people.

"Fang Xiaohong, who is this?"

Soon, an older man came running with a group of villagers.

Su Anlin took the initiative to go out and sighed: "Old man, we were lost when we passed by. A group of us were originally kidnapped by a group of bandits. Later, the bandits were chased by officers and soldiers, and we escaped. Fortunately, we came here and met you. Good luck.

Very good."

The clothes of Su Anlin's group were in tatters, but some villagers said something was wrong: "You said you came here to escape, but why do you have long swords on you?"

"Yes, you are carrying a sword when you are fleeing. Who dares to cause trouble for you?"

"That's right."

Su Anlin had already explained this and sighed: "I was fleeing and stole these weapons from the bandits and came here."

The village chief's eyes were clearly wary.

Regarding this, Su Anlin felt helpless.

He never thought that there was a village here, so when he came, he only thought about changing his clothes, not hiding his weapons.

Fortunately, his rhetoric doesn't make much sense. If these villagers continue to be ignorant, then he will have no choice but to be tough.

"Old man, it's getting late today, can we stay here for one night?"

The village chief looked at Su Anlin, then at a group of girls, and frowned: "Are you really fleeing?"

"Look, we are all girls, what are we trying to do by lying to you, right?"

Wu Shuang stood up and spoke in a low voice.

Upon hearing this, the village chief also said, "Okay, then you can live in temporarily, but I tell you not to run around, because if you run out, you may not be able to come back."

Su Anlin became interested: "Village chief, why do you say that we can't come back after we go out? Is there anything dangerous here?"

"Of course there are. There are a lot of spirits in this mountain forest."

"Then why are you okay?" Su Anlin couldn't help but ask.

The village elder was saying: "Of course we are different from you. We live here and are familiar with the spirits here."

"Ready?"

Su Anlin felt confused and had the feeling that the murderer and I were very familiar.

"What the village chief means is that we are born and raised here, and monsters generally won't harm us." A woman explained with a smile.

"Then did you see anyone else coming?"

Su Anlin asked again.

"Of course I came here, but then I left."

"Where to go?"

"After they go out, can they still live here?" The village chief smiled and turned around and said, "Come with me. My family recently built a new house, but no one is living in the old house. I originally wanted to build a sheepfold. This

It will be easier for you next time.”

Su Anlin nodded: "Thank you very much, village chief."

"One thing, remember, no matter what you see or hear, don't go out at night."

When they reached the old house of the village chief, the village chief suddenly turned around and looked at everyone with serious eyes.

"What will happen if I go out?"

The village chief's eyes widened: "What if you get lost when you go out? We have helped others before, but those people were ignorant and ran out in the middle of the night. After running out, they were gone. We had good intentions and went to find them.

Guess what happened next?"

"What's wrong?" Su Anlin was curious.

"I couldn't find it later."

The village chief sighed: "That's a lot of human lives. They might have disappeared somewhere in this barren mountain. It would be a pity to die."

They seem to have good hearts and are not bad people.

The village chief gave some more instructions, and finally said: "I'll have people deliver food later, let's go first."

After they left, Su Anlin led people into the old house, and everyone started cleaning.

This old house is divided into two wings, east and west. Although there are no quilts, there is hay, so we can make do with it for one night.

While cleaning up, suddenly, a female disciple came over with a handkerchief.

"Hey, this..."

Looking at the handkerchief, Su Anlin wrinkled slightly: "Picked it up?"

"Yes, this handkerchief is not something people in the village can have."

"There are a lot of footprints here. Someone lived here before."

Li Fangfang suddenly said.

"Another discovery, a necklace was found here in the window."

"There is a pair of girls' shoes by the back door."

As clues were found one by one, Su Anlin had a vague feeling that many disappearances had occurred here.

Where have the original owners of these items gone?

Everyone has doubts in their minds.

"Do you want to tell the village chief about these things?" Wu Shuang asked.

Su Anlin shook his head: "It's useless. This is their place. Maybe they already knew it."
