After the return of Ma Zunsheng

Chapter 24 Dongqian Village

"That's because they were careless. Besides, it's just a legend, and no one saw it with their own eyes. Who knows if the lost person got lost there." Chen Chumo didn't think so.

"Rumor? Then what about your gang, why haven't they come back?" Chen Shiyun looked at him and gave him a glare. At this moment, he felt a little dull in his heart and felt that something was about to happen. He said that his son had never been bitten by a snake since he was a child. He is not considered a good snake catcher in Dongqian Village, but he has never been bitten before. He didn't think he entered the Forbidden Forest.

"Maybe, they got separated and got stuck inside, maybe they are waiting for us to rescue them now, hey, Dad, now I have to bring someone in to search, Chunjiang and the others may be trapped by something, there are five of them." Chen Chu Mo seems to have thought of something, full of anxiety.

"Bring more people. If you can't find it, don't look for it. Life and death depend on each other. Remember not to go inside. I heard that the forest is very deep." Chen Shiyun warned.

"I see." Chen Chumo had already run out.

not long...

Dongqian moved to Liangshan outside the village.

Chen Chumo once again stepped into this land where rumors could kill people.

While calling Chunjiang's name, he used his sword to pick apart the surrounding bushes to see what he found.

In fact, he is not afraid of the forest, but thinks that everyone is exaggerating.

"Search separately, you guys go here, you go there, call them out loud." Chen Chumo searched for a while and couldn't find them, so he asked the people below to search separately.

Everyone was ordered to disperse.

For a while, Chen Chumo was alone by his side.

The sound of falling leaves can be clearly heard in the forest.

The chirping of the birds became more piercing, and he walked inside, unaware that something was following him behind him.

After walking for a while, he still didn't see Chunjiang and the others. At this moment, he felt that something might have happened. He began to re-examine the forest, and looked around again. The towering trees, all kinds of unknown The famous wild flowers and weeds vary in height.

The cold air in the forest came in waves, and thick fog began to rise in the forest. He couldn't help but sneezed and frowned, and then he began to feel that this place was a little weird.The person who came with him at the beginning no longer knew where he was.

He had a bad feeling.

He started to walk back, but he was disappointed to find that he couldn't tell which path he came from.

He turned around and found that there were three separate paths in the place, each of which was exactly the same. The oblique path he took when he came here made him dizzy for a while looking at the numerous flowers and trees.

Swish-swish-swish...

With sharp ears, he found that there were other sounds besides the bird chirping, and according to his judgment, the hissing sound was a snake.

He temporarily put aside his fear, the shame of being bitten here before inspired him to kill at least one snake here, in order to wash away the previous shame.

Holding the sword in his hand, he looked around vigilantly.

The sound came from far and near, bright and dark, making it impossible for him to determine from which direction it came from.

In the darkness, that black and transparent eye was staring at the person in front of him closely, and the blood-red letter hissed, and all the scenery looked out from the snake's eyes, no matter people or things, were covered with a layer of crimson shadow.

This familiar figure, no matter how many years have passed, it will never forget.

In this life, have you changed your name to Chen Chumo?Duan Feng.

God knows, here, on this hill, how many years it has waited, how much loneliness it has experienced, how much loneliness it has endured, and how much suffering it has endured, before it can finally see the light of day again, and let it see this yearning dream again. thinking person.

With a figure as thick as the diameter of a century-old tree and a length of more than ten meters, it is no longer the little snake of the past. After suffering, it has grown not only hatred but also its cultivation and mana.

Those glazed eyes followed closely the every move of the person in front of him.

500 years, finally, meet again.

At this time, a strong wind blew through the forest, and the sky suddenly became dark. The strong wind swept up the dust in the forest, flying with it a lot of fallen leaves, and the crows and birds flew from the branches in shock. Chen Chumo had no choice but to Cover your head with your hands to prevent the wind and sand from blinding your eyes.

After an unknown amount of time, the strong wind in the forest stopped, and everything returned to its previous calm. This gust of wind suddenly blew very strangely. Chen Chumo brushed the dust off his body, and his back began to feel a little chilly.

The rustling sound actually disappeared, could it be that the strong wind just now scared the snake away?

Intuition told him that there are many undeveloped things in this forest.If you can find one or two, you might become a contemporary hero among the population of Dongqian Village.

Either he was bitten by a snake and needed to wash away the shame in his heart, or, this forest was strange and mysterious that attracted him invisibly.

In short, Chen Chumo didn't take Chen Shiyun's words to heart at all. He was full of yearning for this forest, hoping to find something from it.

At this time, he caught a glimpse of a light and shadow not far away.

Looking up, there was a young man about eighteen or nineteen years old standing there. Chen Chumo was shocked by his handsome face and sculptural features.

The eyebrows are trimmed like swords, the bridge of the nose is straight, the eyes are narrow and long, the thick and long eyelashes are like fans, and the lips are as red as the red maple in early autumn.Especially his eyes are mysterious and captivating like the galaxy in the dark night sky.

Chen Chumo looked at him in a daze for a moment, this man was actually more beautiful than any woman in Dongqian Village.

The man stood under the tree and looked at him. He was wearing a snow-white gown with a touch of light blue gauze over it. His skin was as delicate as snow, and his red lips were lightly pursed. He seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Chen Chumo watched it for a long time, and the man suddenly laughed, and said in a magnetic voice: "My lord, have you finished watching?"

Chen Chumo seemed to be struck by lightning, and his body was numb. When he came back to his senses, his face was a little hot. He actually stared at a man for a long time?Is he sick?

"Oh, um... I got lost when I came here looking for someone, but I didn't expect there to be someone in this deserted place, so I couldn't get back to my senses for a while." He explained embarrassingly.

The young man walked towards him with light footsteps, and quickly came to his side, stopped by the handle, and said with a smile: "Young master lost his way. It just so happens that I have a tool to guide the way. I don't know where you are going. Let me give you some pointers." road."

Chen Chumo was very grateful when he heard it. He glanced around, and it was getting dark. If he didn't go out, it was gloomy and lonely. Maybe something else happened before he found anything. He still had to come here again. Not in a hurry today, said: "Young Master Lao, I don't know how to call you?"

"Yeming..." The young man was also very straightforward, reporting his name directly.

"Where is your son?" Ye Ming asked while taking out a compass from his cuff.

"Dongqian Village, Chen Chumo." He cupped his fists.

Yeming laughed when he heard Wuyan, and said, "Then Mr. Chen has returned to Dongqian Village?"

Talking about starting to adjust the direction of the compass, he said after a while, "Okay, according to the compass instructions, which way do you want to go, my lord?"

Chen Chumo looked in the direction of Yeming's finger, the one on the left of the three paths.

Just as he was about to lift his foot, he asked again: "Isn't Mr. Ye with me? It's getting late."

Ye Ming said softly: "No, my friends are also nearby, I'll wait for them to join us, by the way, we saw a few people calling young master... now I think they are calling you young master."

When Chen Chumo heard it, why did he forget that there are still a group of subordinates outside, he glanced at Yeming again and said: "That's it, I will go ahead first, thank you Mr. Ye for your righteousness, and I will definitely thank you in the future."

The young man walked towards him with light footsteps, and quickly came to his side, stopped by the handle, and said with a smile: "Young master lost his way. It just so happens that I have a tool to guide the way. I don't know where you are going. Let me give you some pointers." road."

Chen Chumo was very grateful when he heard it. He glanced around, and it was getting dark. If he didn't go out, it was gloomy and lonely. Maybe something else happened before he found anything. He still had to come here again. Not in a hurry today, said: "Young Master Lao, I don't know how to call you?"

"Yeming..." The young man was also very straightforward, reporting his name directly.

"Where is your son?" Ye Ming asked while taking out a compass from his cuff.

"Dongqian Village, Chen Chumo." He cupped his fists.

-

Yeming covered his mouth and laughed softly: "Okay, I also look forward to meeting Mr. Chen again."

He smiled bewitchingly, with affection in his eyes, Chen Chumo's heart suddenly beat like a drum, and he hurriedly turned and left.

After Chen Chumo walked by for a while, the corners of Ye Ming's smiling eyes slowly cooled down, but instead of pretending to be affectionate, the eyes were full of hatred.

Two people came across, a man and a woman.

They saw Ye Ming knelt down on one knee, crossed his hands on his shoulders, and saluted him: "Wang Zun..."

"It's all resolved?" Ye Ming's voice was cold.

"Kill them all, and obey Wang Zun's will." The two said in unison.

"Well, very good." Yeming was very satisfied, and finally a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"All those killed before were thrown at the mountain pass." One of the male servants reported back.

"Qingye, Juwu, we will go back soon." Yeming looked up at an unknown place, closed his eyes, as if recalling a long time ago.

The man named Qingye looked at him: "Wang Zun has seen him?"

"Well, I haven't seen him for many years, but he still has that attractive face. Unfortunately, I recognize him, but he doesn't remember me." He said softly, as if he was returning to Qingye's words, and he seemed to be speaking to himself.

"Will Wang Zun kill him?" Ju Wu asked cautiously.

"Of course, he betrayed Wang Zun's will and hurt Wang Zun so badly, he should have killed him thousands of times." Before Yeming could answer, Hungry Qingye beside him was already filled with righteous indignation and said loudly.

"However, if Wang Zun kills too many people, his cultivation will be compromised, and it will affect him at that time..." Ju Wu was talking, but suddenly couldn't continue, it was obvious that she was very worried about Ye Ming.

"Even if I take away my thousand years of cultivation, I am willing to be reincarnated in the world of animals. It has been 500 years, and I have never forgotten how they treated me back then. Over the years, I have recalled countless times how they treated me. They are the driving force for me to break out of the seal and stand here today, and I must avenge this."

Ye Ming was trembling all over as he spoke, his originally pitch-black glass-like pupils suddenly turned red, like the rare agate gemstones in the mountains, icy cold.

Ju Wu heard the words and stopped talking, she knew what Wang Zun had gone through, but she was still worried, and hoped that Wang Zun would not hurt herself too much on the way of revenge.

"The Chen family, and Dongqian Village, do you think that you don't have to pay back the debts owed in previous lives?"

Yeming's blood-like eyes were burning with anger, and his slender fingers clenched into fists, making a creaking sound.

In this life, nothing else but revenge.

Guided by Yeming's compass, Chen Chumo successfully walked out of the dark and gloomy forest. When he arrived at the place where he came before, he called out to the servants who came out with him, and Yeming told him that these people were looking for him. , Why did he come out but disappeared.

Chen Chumo yelled a few times, and found that there was nothing else in the woods except for a few birds flying in surprise.

He walked a few steps forward and found a strange smell rising in his nasal cavity. This smell shocked him. He was too familiar with this smell. It was the smell of blood.

He frowned, with a bad premonition in his heart, and walked in the direction guided by his sense of taste, and when he came to look in front of him, his eyes widened in shock. The five or six people who came with him were actually lying dead on the ground. There are horrible bite wounds, and bright red blood flows from the corners of the mouth, nose and even ears. The blood has not yet dried up, dripped down their cheeks and necks, passed through their clothes, and finally soaked in the ground where they fell.And everyone's eyes showed unbelievable horror, this is not hurt.

He looked at the male servant closest to him. His whole face was stained red with blood, and his clothes were already torn to pieces, accompanied by mud, which showed that he had struggled and fought vigorously before he died, and finally fell here. It was recognizable that this was the boy who came to his room to report in the morning. He really didn't expect that he would end up like this not long after they met. He looked around and had a flash of inspiration. Could it be the same with Chunjiang and the others?Chen Chumo's whole body was stiff, his legs trembled uncontrollably, he was rarely so scared.

He didn't know how he got home, he only knew that he wandered to the Chen Mansion like a walking dead.

After entering the gate, the butler hurried over and said anxiously: "Young Master, you are back, I am worried about the death of this old slave."

Chen Chumo looked a little human, looked at him: "What's the matter, Uncle Li?"

"The young master has an accident." Li Bo's eyes were full of horror.

Yu Ning and Su Yanzhi looked at the five corpses lying sideways at the joints, and glanced at each other. These people had been dead for a while, and the blood floating on their faces was scarred and dark purple in color.

Yu Ning went over to check one of them. The eyes of the deceased were wide open, and one of them was already blind. There were dry blood in the mouth and nasal cavity. There were large bite wounds from the neck to the shoulders, and there were transparent mucus and blood on it. The blood was mixed, and there were blue and purple scratches on the thighs and arms, one after another. The clothes were torn and soaked in blood, and it was difficult to identify the original color. There was a completely broken arm next to it, almost sticking to the arm. At this time, if anyone goes up and touches it lightly, he will probably roll down.

They all died horribly.

People can't hurt them like this, Yu Ning knows that these are the bite scars that beasts only have.

Su Yanzhi could see it naturally, he frowned and remained silent.

Chen Shiyun and his people were already beside him, and his body trembled slightly. Although these people were bloody, he could still recognize them.

After all, it was not a day or two in Chen's mansion. These were the five missing servants. He had already foreseen that these people would suffer such misfortune, and he never thought that they would die so miserably.

Fortunately, his son came back. Although he was injured, his life was not the same as theirs.

"This village catches snakes, I reckon they were bitten by snakes." Yu Ning looked at Su Yanzhi and judged.

He looked up at Chen Shiyun's face ashen, staring at the dead body without moving. He heard that their family had lost a few people when Lenovo detoxified Chen Chumo a few days ago. Now that he thinks about it, these people probably belong to their family.

At this moment, Chen Chumo rushed over in a panic. Looking at the corpse, he sat on the ground in shock, Chun Jiang.

Sure enough, just as he guessed, when he saw the other corpses in the Liangshan forest, he thought of what happened to Chunjiang and the others, and he didn't expect it to be confirmed right after he came back.But, why are Chunjiang and the others here, shouldn't they be in the woods?

He half-crawled in front of Chen Shiyun: "Father, what's going on?"

Chen Shiyun looked at him with complicated eyes: "Don't ask you?"

"I don't know, why are they here? I went to find them, they are not in the woods."

Listen, Yu Ning, Lin Zi?What woods?

"I told you not to go in. If you don't listen, it's fine now." Chen Shiyun looked at the corpse angrily and startled, but he couldn't do anything about it. It seemed that the rumors of the predecessors were not false. There were large beasts in that forest, which could hurt people.

"Snake, it's a snake. Dad, it must be a snake that bites." Chen Chumo's voice trembled.

These corpses were placed at the entrance of the village, and the names of the villages who came and went saw them and quickly gathered around. At this time, the corpses were surrounded by water, and everyone looked at the corpses with horror on their faces: "My God, there are so many dead people, but it has never happened. Have such a thing."

"The death is so miserable, terrible..."

"It must have been bitten to death by a wild animal. Look how scary the wound is..."

"How could such a beast enter the village..."

"This is the entrance of the village, who knows how these people got there."

Everyone has already started talking.

Chen Shiyun looked at it, coughed, and said loudly: "Everyone, calm down, don't be afraid. These people died by accident. The government will come to investigate soon. Let's leave everyone. After the truth is found out, we must post a notice."

Chen Shiyun sent everyone away, now he should take the corpse home as soon as possible, the more people see the worse.

Dead people are a matter of infiltrating people. Everyone took a second look to make it fresh and lively. Now the village chief left after speaking.

Chen family.

The corpse was transported back and placed in the side courtyard. Chen Chumo had already regained his composure. Looking at Chun Jiang and the others covered in white cloth, he felt a throbbing pain in his heart. After all, they were his subordinates. Follow him out, if It wasn't that he was going to the Liangshan forest to find some big snakes, maybe he wouldn't encounter these things, and the few people who went together today, he told Chen Shiyun just now, and they have already been pulled.

"What forest did Young Master Chen go to?" Yu Ning looked at Chen Chumo and asked, he just heard Chen Shiyun's conversation with him at the entrance of the village, these corpses did not seem to be accidental deaths.

Chen Chumo looked at him when he heard the words, hesitating a little, these two people are from outside.Although he saved him, he didn't want to tell others that he wanted to hunt snakes and entered the Forbidden Forest, but he lost more than a dozen lives as a result of not catching the snakes.

Chen Shiyun on the side sighed, with a look of disappointment on his face: "The two immortal masters don't know something. Our village has had the custom of catching snakes since it was handed down. There are many snake hunting places in Dongqian Village. But although we hunt snakes But he is particular about the route, there is a Liangshan forest in the north of the village, no one has ever hunted there..."

Chen Shiyun paused and then said: "People said that forest is very strange before. Someone died there. I also warned the children not to come here to hunt casually. Who knows, he actually carried me behind his back... He was bitten by a snake that day. , I just went to the forest, these people...these people were lost that day."

As Chen Shiyun said, he looked towards Chen Chumo and gouged him hard.

"Have people died before? Where did this rumor come from?" Yu Ning continued to ask, did they believe a rumor?

"Who is not sure about the specifics? It was a rumor a long time ago. If it was just a rumor, we wouldn't believe it so true. It's just that someone went in a few years ago and never came out again." Chen Shiyun explained.

"Then you haven't gone in to look for it?" Su Yan knew.

"I went and sent a few people, but the forest was deep and weird, and everyone was afraid of rumors and missing people, so I didn't go in, I just walked around and came out."

Chen Shiyun recalled that people who have been lost, no matter how worried they are, they dare not gamble with their own safety. Why would they go all out to find them?

"Then there was no news after that?" Yu Ning felt strange.

"Yes, the lost person has never appeared since then. Liangshan is now a forbidden place in everyone's hearts. Most people never go there to hunt." Chen Shiyun said.

"Then what did Master Ling go through?" Yu Ning thought for a while, then looked at Chen Chumo again.

Chen Chumo looked at him, pondered for a while, and finally said, "It's very quiet inside, there's nothing but a snake."

"That snake is no different from the one I hunted before, it's just a little bigger, and the snake letter grows a little longer." Chen Chumo thinks that there is nothing wrong with it now, maybe these deaths are just a coincidence.

There may be large beasts, but I haven't encountered any.

After a while, the person Chen Shiyun sent to find the corpses at the edge of the forest came back and brought several new ones.

Yu Ning and Su Yanzhi looked similar to those lying on the ground, and they should have been bitten to death by the same animal.

Yu Ning was a little strange, the two times he went together, all the servants died, but Chen Chumo had no injuries other than the first snake bite.

"Didn't Mr. Chen hear their cries for help? Or other sounds of fighting?" Even if a dozen or so people got separated, there should be a sound.

Chen Chumo felt that something was wrong after asking this question, and said: "I didn't know when I separated from Chun Jiang and the others last time, I only know that a big orange snake next to me bit me and escaped, this time we separated Looking for people, I lost my way while walking, and finally came out, and then I saw their dead bodies all over the place."

"Is there anything suspicious?" Yu Ning asked.

"No, oh, I met a friend today, and he guided me out when I lost my way." Chen Chumo suddenly thought of Ye Ming's enchanting face.

"Forbidden place, is there anyone else?" Su Yanzhi pondered.

"He seems to be here with his friends, probably because of the snake hunting competition..."

Chen Chumo said again, Yeming's figure appeared in his mind, and he felt a strange feeling in his heart again, which he couldn't explain clearly.

"Father, why don't you tell me what these people are doing now. If the villagers know about it, it will cause another incident. Now is the time for the snake hunting competition."

Chen Chumo said, if everyone knows that a wild animal has killed a person, it may have an impact on the competition.

"You still know something is going to happen?" Chen Shiyun stared at him, not saying anything, some of these servants had families and worked in his house, and now that something happened, they must give others an explanation.

Now is the period of snake hunting, it is better not to have these negative news, but it is already too late now, we can only suppress the matter to the minimum.

For now, I just pray that everyone will not go to the Liangshan woods to hunt for novelties like his dishonest son.

"Prepare some silver taels first, and when I have a good idea, I will go to the door and talk to others, hum." After finishing speaking, Chen Shiyun snorted hard.

Chen Chumo remained silent. He would definitely lose money, and he might be questioned by his family members. If he didn't give him a favorable reasoning, he would have a hard time getting through this test.

He was the one who was going to the forbidden area, and everyone knew that he couldn't go to the forbidden area. He, the son of the village chief, took the lead to go, and he would definitely make people talk about it.

"Village chief, young master, Miss Feng is here." The butler changed his smile and looked at Chen Chumo.

Chen Chumo paused for a moment, then came back to his senses: "Oh, you tell her to go to the living room, and I'll be there later."

Then he looked back at Chen Shiyun: "Father, Xueyan is here, I'm going to change clothes."

Then looking at Su Yanzhi, Yu Ning nodded with a smile and left in a hurry.

Yu Ning raised her eyebrows secretly, Miss Feng, Feng Xueyan.Is that the village chief's confidante?
