Chapter 281 Triple Danger
in the room.

Smoke filled the air.

Old Tang held a wooden pipe in his mouth, puffing smoke with a hollow look in his eyes.

He told Wen Chao that he was the village guard.

But in fact, he himself was just an old man who was driven out of the town.

It's just that his body is unexpectedly strong. In Wuzang Village, he has outlasted many old people who have passed away, so he calls himself the village guardian.

But in recent days.

Old Tang felt that his body was no longer able to cope with the situation.

So his mood became very bad.

The group of people who had just appeared made Old Tang feel irritated from the bottom of his heart. These people had no taboos in their hearts and lacked respect for ghosts and gods. Their stupid appearance made Old Tang sick.

"Maybe tomorrow morning, I will have to get up to collect their bodies..."

dong dong dong...

While thinking.

There was a knock on Old Tang's door.

Wen Chao brought Jiang Chun into the dim room. Smoke drifted out from the door, and the smell of broth filled Old Tang's nose...

Jiang Chun was holding a tray in his hand, and on the tray were two ceramic bowls filled with broth!
For Wu Xian and others, the broth was fishy and unpleasant-smelling and difficult to swallow, but for these elderly indigenous people, a sip of hot water was like nectar, not to mention the steaming hot pork and wild vegetable soup.

Jiang Chun took one of the bowls of broth, walked to another old man in the room, squatted down and fed the broth into his mouth.

Wen Chao nodded with satisfaction, then took another bowl of broth and handed it to the trembling Old Tang.

"Brother, let's talk."

Old Tang sniffed the aroma of the broth intoxicatedly and took a sip cautiously. It was as if a warm current ran through his whole body, making him shake his head in comfort.

The wild boar meat in the soup was cut into small pieces. Although the old man had difficulty biting them with his teeth, it was not difficult for him to swallow them.

Old Tang drank the bowl of broth and licked his lips.

He still hated these outsiders, but now he didn't want to see their corpses.

"It's getting dark."

"Let me give you a piece of advice..."

……

When Wen Chao came out of the room.

The sky was already dark, almost at the boundary between dusk and night. He stood there anxiously waiting for a while, and then he saw Wu Xian and others rushing back from outside the village, exhausted and covered in dust.

In order to bury Grandma Wang, all of them were more or less stained with dirt.

The expressions of the five people were not very good.

When they were leaving the tomb, they saw that all the corpses nearby, whether mummies or skeletons, all had their heads looking in the direction of the tomb!

Even the corpses a hundred meters away were staring at him!

The empty eye sockets, the rotten eyeballs, and the gazes of the dead made the five people feel a chill down their spines.

This made Wu Xian realize that all the corpses outside, even though they looked dead, were still alive in a sense!
Maybe the walking corpses under the moonlight last night were these corpses that were randomly thrown into the wilderness!

As soon as they returned to the village, they saw Wen Chao waving to him.

"Those old men relented, and Old Tang gave me three pieces of advice."

"First, you cannot leave the village after dark."

"Second, you cannot go out when there is moonlight, and you cannot open the doors or windows... no matter what is happening outside."

"Third, people who have violated the taboo are not allowed to live in the same room with other people at night... All of us have violated the taboo. No matter what the reason, as long as a living person enters a coffin, disaster will come to them."

After Wen Chao finished speaking, Wu Xian also quickly told him what he had seen and heard, and then the two of them quickly separated, and the thirteen of them returned to their rooms.

…The dead Granny Wang was lying in a tattered coffin. Mud poured in from the cracks in the coffin and fell on her body. A faint sound echoed in her ears.

"Come out...come out..."

click!
Granny Wang opened her eyes, and her entire eyeballs were pitch black. She let out a shrill scream.

"not enough!"

"It's not enough!"

Village center.

The fire that Wu Xian and others used to cook was still burning.

Before Aunt Miao and others entered the house, water had been boiling here. The water brought back from the wild had to be boiled before it could be drunk, so a large amount of firewood was left in the fire, enough to burn for at least an hour.

But Wu Xian and others had just entered the house for less than two minutes.

call!
A cold wind blew and the fire suddenly went out.

The newlyweds and their families arrived at this blessed land, and their first night in the true sense of the word began.

……

The whole village.

Except for the largest main house, the others are adobe houses.

The place where Granny Wang lived before was naturally no exception.

There is not a single brick or tile in the entire house. The beams, pillars, doors and windows are made of wood, the walls are made of mud walls mixed with hay and yellow mud, and the roof is made of thick hay arranged in an orderly manner.

Su Xuan found an oil lamp from somewhere and lit it. The dim flame illuminated the entire room, leaving shadows on everyone's face, making it look somewhat eerie.

Before the two groups separated.

Wen Chao and Wu Xian discussed it privately, so the two of them exchanged information quickly before dark.

In the initial debate.

Wen Chao actually also belongs to the burial faction, and Wu Xian was a little surprised that he would join the bystander faction.

But later, Wu Xian thought about it and understood why Wen Chao did this.

If Wen Chao also joined the burial faction, then the thirteen of them would completely become two groups. If the conflict escalated, it would not be good for anyone, so Wen Chao took the initiative to join the bystander faction.

With him and Wu Xian maneuvering between the two factions, the team of dependents would not really split.

After dark.

Nothing has happened yet.

Wu Xian calmed down and began to think about the three pieces of advice given by Wen Chao.

These three pieces of advice should have come from the elders. Although they were not stated explicitly, they basically pointed out the dangers that the newlyweds and their families might encounter tonight.

In this blessed land at night, there are at least three things that can harm people's lives, and the abilities and habits of these three things are different.

The first type only moves outside Wuzang Village at night and usually does not take the initiative to enter the village, so if there is no moonlight, it is safe to move around in the village at night.

The second type can move under the moonlight and can enter the village but cannot enter the room. This type of danger may have a higher IQ and camouflage ability to lure people out of the room.

For those who do not violate any taboos, as long as they deal with these two dangers, they can live in the Wuzang Village.

As for the third danger.

There is no range of activities and it may appear anywhere. Anyone who violates the taboo will be attacked by the third kind of danger!

And it is very likely that the more taboos are violated, the greater the intensity of the crisis.

The onlookers were fine, as they had only violated the taboo of entering the coffin. However, the burial group of Wu Xian and the other five had not only entered the coffin, but had also just buried Granny Wang. Only God knew how many taboos they had violated...

Wu Xian licked his lips.

He was very curious about how this third danger would appear.
