The road that the driver took us was very secluded... Everyone knows that Shanxi is famous for its coal production, and there are also good mountains and rivers, but most places have traces of mining.

Although there is no green around, the peaks are not high, and there are more hills. However, the scene in front of you makes people feel desolate and vigorous. Each hill seems to be a sergeant standing tall with a sharp blade in his hand. The car is like passing by in front of countless cold and arrogant faces, which is intimidating and inexplicably makes people feel a little respect.

Indeed, there are over-exploitation in many places in our country. But it is undeniable that these places have made great contributions to the rapid development of the country.

The coal was dug up and the people were scattered, but the hills and ridges were still standing there, like this endless soul. The desolation and desolation in front of me not only add a different kind of vitality in my imagination.

Yao Hui leaned against me and kept smiling at me. I asked her what she was laughing at, but she just shook her head.

Although the summer night comes relatively late, it is already a slump.

"Master, how long will it take to arrive?" I couldn't help asking.

"Now, you'll get around this hill." The driver smiled, as if he was ready to collect the money.

But before he could laugh, he suddenly had a few strange phenomena, and then the car stopped slowly.

I immediately saw that the driver's face changed. He got out of the car and opened the hood. When I thought that this must have broken down, I got out of the car.

After checking for more than ten minutes, the young driver pursed and said to me: "Boss, I'm sorry, the engine of this car is broken. I, I can only send you here."

When I heard that I was so angry that I was about to get angry, the driver said, "You can give me less money. Besides, Wenxing Village is almost here. You can bypass these mountain bags and walk for about ten minutes."

I looked at the broken car, then looked at the driver's broken face, and finally I had to sigh.

Looking at the distance, there were several rows of houses vaguely, I thought it would be almost the same. So after squeezing the money to the driver, he led Yao Hui out of the car.

Yao Hui didn't care much about these things, and even told me not to be angry and put the big umbrella on top of my head.

I suddenly felt that she was quite cute and she felt much better.

However, it was too late and the wind was strong on all sides. We still felt scared when we walked around the hills. Before we knew it, the two of us held hands together.

When we walked around the hills, it was actually dark. After we walked forward for a while, we saw some fires lit up in the valley.

The driver didn't lie to us, it was indeed not very far away. But because of the high heels that Yao Hui wore, we walked very slowly. It was originally half an hour away, but when we approached the village, it was already dark.

I inquired about Wenxing Village on the way and found that it was a very famous tourist attraction in Jincheng. There are many ancient residences in the village, which are usually quite lively.

But as soon as we walked to the entrance of the village, we found that it was extremely secluded. After listening carefully for a while, it seemed that there was only the sound of wind passing by around us.

Yao Hui was a little scared and grabbed me even tighter. I felt relieved, but looking at the firelights, I thought I would definitely meet someone later.

We turned on the lighting function of our phone, walked a few steps forward, and saw the stone tablet at the entrance of the village.

The stone tablet was very dilapidated. We only saw the word "village" at the bottom. What was written on it had long been smoothed out.

There was only a path in front of me. I walked ahead and touched it little by little.

"Yuan Jie, would we go wrong? Isn't Wenxing Village a tourist attraction?" Yao Hui stopped and pulled me uneasy.

I also feel this way, but at this time I can only talk to her in a good way, otherwise it would be bad if I scared her.

"Maybe it was because of traffic jams on the road, and the tourists didn't come. Don't worry, I'm there." Although I spoke easily, Yao Hui still nervously grabbed my arm with both hands.

After walking for a while, we saw a row of houses.

When I looked at the wooden eaves, I thought that this house was indeed a bit old, and the houses were filled with the atmosphere of the Ming and Qing dynasties. If this was the case, then we should have gone wrong. Perhaps it was because the village was holding some activities, and everyone gathered together.

There are two roads in front of this row of houses, so I hesitate to go where to go.

"Yuan Jie, there is light over there." Yao Hui pulled me.

When I turned around, I saw a fire shaking around the road to the west, feeling like a lantern on the side of the road. When I couldn't find the road, people were walking towards a place with light. So, Yao Hui and I moved there.

After approaching the fire, I realized that it seemed like a kerosene lamp placed on the ground, and there was a figure beside it. Seeing the movement, the man seemed to be digging something in the ground.

Hiss...it's dark, what is he digging?

Thinking of it, I went over and asked, "Hello, fellow villager, we are here for a trip. I want to ask where the hotel is here?" I enthusiastically took out the cigarette.

But after I finished speaking, the fellow villager did not react at all. With the fire and the lighting in our hands, I saw that it was a thin old man with a very shallow white beard on his lips, which was so thin that he felt that he was not as strong as the hoe in his hands.

I thought his old man was in the back of his ears, so he shouted twice. However, the old man still didn't respond.

I thought to myself that even a deaf man should see our lighting. Just as I was about to walk forward, suddenly, there was a "click" sound in the field, and then the old man put down his hoe.

After looking again, a wooden box-like thing appeared in the piece of land he dug.

The box had been hoed to pieces by the old man, revealing a big hole. Then the lighting in my hand, I suddenly saw two big eyes staring at me.

I was startled, took two steps back, and quickly protected Yao Hui behind me.

The little old man finally turned his head, grinned, laughed at us twice, then reached into the wooden box, and grabbed a dead cat whose body had begun to swell from it.

Yao Hui screamed in surprise and immediately covered her eyes. Then, the old man took out more than a dozen dead cats from the box.

I was so scared that I started to tremble. I saw the old man grab the oil lamp from the ground, put it next to his head, and smiled at us in a low voice: "Go back..."

After saying that, he wrapped the dead cats with a piece of cloth and walked slowly down the road.

Yao Hui and I were both frightened. At this time, I thought it would be best to take Yao Hui back. But how to go back? There are no sparks around except this village. I heard that there are wolves in these places. It’s okay for me to be alone, but Yao Hui can’t leave.

So I suppressed my composure and said to Yao Hui: "Let's go another way."

Yao Hui didn't know the southeast, southwest and northeast at this time. When she nodded, she was so scared that she almost crawled onto me.

After walking back a few steps, suddenly, a long and harsh "squeak..." sound came from the old houses beside me, and the sound of opening the door.

When we turned around, we saw that the wooden door around us had already opened.

There was a dark and there was no figure at the door. There was a pair of broken couplets hanging on both sides of the door. When the wind passed, the paper of the couplets roared, which scared us so much that we didn't dare to move for a long time.

"It's okay, then, that's the wind." I wanted to comfort Yao Hui, but as soon as I spoke, I found that I was shaking very hard.

"Yuan Jie, let's go back to find that driver. He must be still repairing the car there." Yao Hui was almost crying.

I couldn't think of a better way, so I was about to retreat. At this moment, a light lit up inside the open wooden door.

We were startled, and then we were all happy.

Electric lights, damn, there must be someone.

Sure enough, a middle-aged woman in a white coat walked out of the house. She held a basin and poured out the water from the basin when she went out. She was stunned for a moment before she saw Yao Hui and me again.

"You..." the middle-aged woman was also surprised.

I felt relieved and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Sister, we are here for tourism in Wenxing Village. Is this Wenxing Village?"

When the elder sister heard that we were here for a trip, she seemed very happy.

"That's right, this is Wenxing Village. Why are you here at night? Come in quickly, come in quickly." She hurriedly came in from the house and welcomed us inside.

I know that there are usually competition among such attractions and farmhouses. When I see us, this elder sister must quickly bring the business into the house so that she will not be stolen by others.

Of course, Yao Hui and I would not refuse, so we immediately followed us into the house. After we asked us to sit down in the lobby, the elder sister immediately started working hard. She brought tea and water, and then arranged to cook on the fire. I didn't even have a chance to speak.

"You wait a moment, I'll bring the food up right away." As he spoke, the elder sister was already in the kitchen.
