Chapter 285 Xanadu
The other party's screams echoed in the cave, and they never stopped for a long time.
A figure suddenly appeared in this cave, which really surprised me.
I frowned and looked at the other person up and down.
The other person looked young, in his twenties.
Wearing a dark blue-grey straight dress, with a bun on her head and a jade hairpin.
The clothes from top to bottom reveal an ancient charm.
The key is that he is a human being, a living person.
He seemed to have come in from outside the cave just now. I felt suspicious in my heart. Could it be that there was some crew filming nearby?
The young man looked at me carefully and then showed a wary look on his face.
"Are you a human or a ghost?"
I curled my lips with a look of contempt on my face.
"Ghost? Wherever I, Lin Shisan, am, all the ghosts and evil spirits within a five-mile radius have already escaped."
The young man frowned, with a strange look on his face.
"You speak very strangely and dress strangely. You don't seem to be from China?"
I was a little confused, wondering who of the two of us was dressed weirdly!
Is there something wrong with this guy’s brain?
But now I'm in a hurry to get out of this damn place, and I don't bother to get to the bottom of it.
"My name is Lin Shisan, and I accidentally lost my way.
I came in when I saw the light inside the cave. Is there a way ahead to leave?"
When the young man heard the sound, he suddenly showed a look of fear on his face.
"Little brother, don't go in, this place is full of mountain spirits and ghosts.
I finally escaped from it!"
Mountain spirits and ghosts?
I frowned and looked towards the light ahead.
"Anyway, please don't go in. I'm in a hurry to go to Bianliang to take part in the imperial examination, so I'll take my leave first."
After saying that, the young man cupped his hands and climbed out of the cave.
"Bianliang, scientific examination?"
Looking at the young man's leaving figure, I was filled with thoughts.
Am I dreaming, or is this person just out of his mind?
How many years have passed since the fall of the Qing Dynasty, and you still want to go to Bianliang City to take part in the scientific examination?
What a weirdo!
I shook my head and headed out of the cave.
As a burst of dazzling sunlight passed by, my eyes suddenly became wider.
As far as the eye can see, there are patches of peach groves in full bloom, with a small stream gurgling through the middle of the peach groves.
Surrounded by mountains, there are fertile fields everywhere, and a herd of cattle and sheep are grazing in the fields beside the road.
In the fields, all the villagers are still working.
Looking along the end of the peach grove, there is a village built on the mountain.
Now that the sun is setting in the west, smoke is rising from many people's chimneys.
Beside the small bridge and flowing water at the entrance of the village, a group of children were playing and playing.
The scene in front of me is a paradise on earth!
"I'll go, you're in this situation."
I frowned, but at the moment I was not in the mood to appreciate the infinite pastoral scenery.
I'm afraid this place is a little weird.
It was late at night when we were outside, but the sun hadn't set yet inside.
The key point is that the children and villagers don't seem to be dressed like people of this era.
call!
The black stone bracelet emitted a burst of red light, and the red sleeves slowly fell beside me.
"Such a beautiful place."
Hong Xiu reached out and touched the peach branch next to her. She seemed to be in a good mood.
I couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"This place is a good place, but I'm afraid it may have hidden murderous intent!"
I couldn't help but frown, recalling what the weirdo said just now.
He said that this village is full of mountain spirits and ghosts.
"If you want to know what's going on, go to the village and ask someone."
Hongxiu skipped toward the peach forest with her hands behind her back, seemingly not worried at all.
Shaking my head helplessly, I had no choice but to follow Hongxiu towards the village.
Not long after, Hong Xiu and I arrived at the entrance of the village.
Several children playing at the entrance of the village were full of curiosity when they saw us, and kept circling around us.
There was a flash of green light in my eyes, and I glanced at several children.
But the result surprised me. There was no demonic spirit in these children. They were just ordinary children.
At this time, a couple returning from working in the fields happened to pass by the small bridge at the entrance of the village.
Both of them are dressed in ancient style, and they seem to be dressed in Qin and Han Dynasties.
"Dad, Mom, a big brother and big sister have come to the village."
A child with his hair pulled up to the sky ran towards the middle-aged couple.
The middle-aged couple glanced at us, both with expressions of surprise on their faces.
The middle-aged man put down the hoe on his shoulder and cupped his hand towards me.
"How did you two come to us?"
I looked at the middle-aged man and then replied calmly.
“I don’t know either, I was walking up the river, and for some reason there was a heavy fog while walking.
Seeing a passage on the mountain wall, I got in.
Big brother, where are we here and how far is it from Yunzhou?"
The middle-aged man nodded slightly and showed a bright smile.
"Our place is called Taohua Village. As for the Yunzhou you mentioned, I don't know where it is.
People in our village have always lived in the village and have never had contact with the outside world."
My heart tightened and I looked at the middle-aged couple in front of me.
Could it be that they have really been living here forever and have never had contact with the outside world?
Judging from their attire, this is not impossible.
"Brother, do you know of any way to get out of here?"
The middle-aged man laughed loudly and did not answer me immediately.
"Don't rush, don't rush, it will get dark soon, you and your wife will stay in the village for now.
Allow us to treat you well, and we will naturally send you away when the time comes."
When Hongxiu heard the sound, her cheeks turned slightly red.
After saying that, the middle-aged man waved his hand towards the woman beside him.
"Go and notify Li Zheng that there are distinguished guests in the village."
The woman responded and quickly ran towards the village with her hoe on her shoulder.
"Brother, you don't have to be too rigid, just treat this place as your own home.
My name is Zhu Dawu. You can stay at my house tonight.
I'll ask your sister-in-law to kill the chicken later, and we two brothers will have a nice drink."
Zhu Dawu was very enthusiastic, which made me feel a little embarrassed.
Not long after, I followed Zhu Dawu to a quiet courtyard with a bamboo fence.
"Come on, come on, don't be polite. Sit at home."
The yard of the small courtyard is very clean, with many vegetables and flowers planted, and a rocking chair placed under the eaves.
After learning that a stranger had arrived in the village, many villagers came to watch.
I observed carefully and found that none of the villagers in Peach Blossom Village had any demonic aura about them. They were all normal human beings.
This seems to be very different from what the strange man I met in the cave said before.
After a while, the outside of the bamboo fence was filled with villagers doing good things, as if they hadn't seen a stranger in a long time.
