Floating clouds surrounded the mountains and rivers, and the grass and trees were overlooking the fields. After walking across a stone arch bridge, Lin Qian saw two spiritual officials standing under the plaque of the covered bridge. He said they were spiritual officials.

In fact, they are more like two ferocious and terrifying evil spirits, with disheveled hair, twisted and terrifying faces, and dark bodies. If they weren't wearing the same clothes as spirit officials, they would look like ghosts.

Lin Qian didn't even recognize that this was a spiritual official.

The old village chief walked in front and didn't care about Lin Qian's reaction, as if nothing mattered in his eyes.

Lin Qian looked at the surrounding buildings. They couldn't be described as with carved beams and painted pillars, but they were also very exquisite, beautiful and antique-style.

After walking across the stone arch bridge, the old village chief took Lin Qian into the village. The roads in the village were paved with bluestones and lined with streets and alleys.

"Young man, you can stay here for the next two days. The owner of this house has moved out of Coffin Village. You can rest assured."

The old village chief took Lin Qian to a house on the west side of the village.

He unlocked the door and led Lin Qian inside.

"Although the conditions here are not the best, they are enough. Young man, please stay here first."

"This is the key. By the way, let me tell you the rules of our village."

The old village chief handed over the key. Lin Qian did not refuse and chose to take the key.

"In our village, you can wander around during the day. If you are interested, you can also participate in the sacrifice. Do you want to participate?"

Lin Qian remained silent and did not answer the old village chief's question.

The old village chief seemed not surprised at all and continued:

"The village is very safe during the day, so you can feel free to visit, but not necessarily at night. However, if you participate in the sacrifice, there will be no such taboo at night. Do you want to participate?"

Lin Qian's eyes were deep and silent.

"At night, don't go out. If someone calls you, don't answer. Don't open the door and go out to check. Especially when someone knocks on the door, you should pay more attention."

"However, if you participate in the sacrifice, you will be protected by the spiritual official, and these things will not happen. Do you want to participate?"

The old village chief stared straight at Lin Qian, as if he wanted to eat someone in his eyes.

Lin Qian looked at him and didn't seem to care. Not saying anything was the best answer.

Lin Qian reached out and grabbed the bride's hand that was reaching towards his face, and looked at the old village chief expressionlessly.

"Okay, there are only so many taboos in the village. As long as you don't go out, you won't encounter the rest. Of course, if you want to participate in the sacrifice, you can go to the old locust tree in the center of the village and kowtow there."

After saying that, the old village chief walked out of the small courtyard on the second floor. Lin Qian did not go to see him off, but just watched the old village chief leave.

After the old village chief walked away, Lin Qian waved his hand and the door closed automatically.

In a blink of an eye, Lin Qian came to the white tree in the yard and began to look at the village.

Although it is said to be a village, it is actually larger than a small town. Looking from here, in the center of the village, there is a thick old locust tree with lush branches and leaves, and the branches are as thick as a person.

The branches of the old locust tree hang down and are covered with wooden signs. The wooden signs are dark and seem to have something written on them.

Under the old locust tree, there is an extremely formal altar, which is well-founded and placed in the position of the Taoist Eight Diagrams, which occupies the position of the five elements, falling on the door of death and coming out of the door of injury.

If yin and yang are reversed, this is a dead end.

Not far from the center of the village, there is a street. In the center of the street is a well with a chain dropped into the well. There are two words on the well, "Wish Well".

The moment she saw the well, Lin Qian's eyes flashed:

"Wish Well? Is this the well Mr. Li is looking for?"

Lin Qian was a little unsure.

"When I go out this time, I'll talk to Mr. Li and see if it's okay."

Lin Qian looked away from the well and continued to scan the surroundings.

The village is very big, much larger than the average small town. At the western end of the village, there is a temple, an extremely splendid small temple.

Just one glance can make people feel close to each other, as if they will be extremely safe as long as they enter.

Lin Qiantong shrank, this temple was very dangerous, extremely dangerous.

"After confirming the situation here, I can go and take a look."

Lin Qian estimated the size of his mouth and thought that he should be able to eat it.

Coming down from the tree, he had basically seen the layout of the village clearly. There were strange things in all directions.

The Yuanjing on the east side is closest to the old locust tree in the center.

The temple on the west side is extremely weird. There are ghosts inside, and even the temple itself is a ghost.

The old house in the south is very gloomy and ominous.

There are fierce ghosts in the mountains to the north. Skeletons are everywhere, flesh and blood are made of mud, and hair is covered with lichen.

There is a ghost hiding here.

Lin Qian sat on a stone chair in the courtyard, looking up at the sky. The sky was blue, white clouds, and clear. It was undoubtedly a good weather.

"Wait a minute. I am sure that there is a ghost in the temple. I am also sure that there is a ghost in the old house. There is no doubt that there is a ghost in the mountains. I have seen it."

"But the source ghost in the village has not been found, but it is certain that it is in the old locust tree."

"But even though I can be sure, I still can't find where Li Gui's body is. I can just feel it, but it's of no use."

Lin Qian looked around. The yard was very ordinary, nothing supernatural at all.

He also discovered just now that except for those special places where there were ghosts, the rest of the places seemed to be quite normal, with no signs of supernatural beings.

This is a bit strange. In a place like this, there are actually areas without supernatural beings, and there are more than one.

"Don't worry, don't worry. I'll come to you after I figure out the situation."

Lin Qian smiled and looked at the floating clouds in the sky with deep eyes.

After adjusting the bride's skirt, Lin Qian looked at the sleeping woman with a smile on her lips:

"I don't know if I dreamed of something delicious, but my mouth is watering."

After wiping the saliva from the corner of Coco's mouth, Lin Qian took off his glasses, and there was a faint trace of blood in the scarlet hole.

The plaque on the covered bridge, the stone arch bridge over the creek, and the old village chief greeted Liu Qi and others with a smile.

"Are you a stranger? It's really lively today. Are you all here to participate in the sacrifice?"

The old village chief's voice was gentle, conveying an amiable tone.

Hearing what the old village chief said, Xu Qingxiao looked around nervously. He didn't know where this place was.

"Old man, what is this place?" He looked at the old village chief and asked nervously.

Tian Yunxiao swallowed and hesitated. He originally wanted to stop Xu Qingxiao from speaking, but he had already spoken, so he gave up the idea.

In such an unknown place, speak as little as possible.

"This is Coffin Village. Look, the name of our village is on the plaque." The old village chief pointed to the plaque and said.

Looking in the direction of the old village chief's finger, the three big characters written in red lacquer came into view.

Liu Qi, Wang Yi, Xu Qingxiao and Song Yu all changed their expressions after seeing those three big characters.

"Coffin Village, Coffin of Coffins."

Liu Qi recalled what he said when he was chatting with Lin Qian in the car. At that time, Lin Qian asked him which coffin was in Coffin Mountain, and this is what he said at that time.

"Of course it's an official official. Otherwise, which official do you think it is? Could it be that it's the coffin's coffin?"

Now that I think about it, it really came true.

Liu Qi's face was gloomy and uncertain, while Tian Yunxiao's face was expressionless and he looked around without saying a word.

"Old man, the name of your village is really... quite unique..." Xu Qingxiao said in an extremely unnatural tone.

The old village chief just smiled and said nothing, and did not answer the question:

"I am the village chief here. You can ask me anything you want."

The old man lifted the white paper lantern in his hand, thought for a moment and continued:

"Our village's sixty-year-old sacrifice will start tomorrow. You came at the right time. How about I take you to stay first and then I will take you to participate in the sacrifice tomorrow?"

Hearing this, Xu Qingxiao hesitated, but just as he was about to speak, Tian Yunxiao stopped him.

Xu Qingxiao was a little confused and turned to look at Tian Yunxiao, only to see him shaking his head solemnly, indicating that he should not agree casually.

But although Tian Yunxiao stopped Xu Qingxiao, he did not stop anyone else. He only heard a girl say:

"Is it really okay? We can stay here?"

As these words were spoken, Tian Yunxiao's expression changed slightly, and he suddenly turned his head and stared at the old village chief, but the old village chief did not show any abnormal behavior at all.

Seeing this, Tian Yunxiao breathed a sigh of relief.

"Huang Hui...Oh, forget it, as long as you are happy."

Tian Yunxiao originally wanted to remind her, but after seeing her panicked look, he gave up the plan after thinking about it.

"Of course, do you want to participate in the sacrifice? If you participate in the sacrifice, you will be protected by the spiritual officials, and you will not encounter any trouble in the village from now on."

"Even after participating in the sacrifice, I will have people escort you out personally. Under the protection of the spiritual officials, you will be safe and sound."

After hearing the old village chief's words, the girl named Huang Hui by Tian Yunxiao nodded quickly as if she saw some hope.

Looking at her like that, it seemed as if if she didn't hurry up, this life-saving straw would be broken.

"I, I am willing to participate in the sacrifice. As long as you can send me away from here, I am willing to do anything."

The old village chief smiled and nodded, his face very pleased:

"Well, no problem, I will ask you to attend the sacrifice tomorrow morning."

After saying that, the old village chief turned around and walked towards the village with a lantern in hand:

"Let's go, I'll take you to the place where you live. There happens to be a foreigner there too."
