From his expression, it seemed that he was not surprised with this village. I was very curious and asked the suited man what was going on. Why was there such a deserted village deep in the mountains?

The man in the suit lamented, "This village used to be called Taiping Village. When I was a teenager, I stayed here for a period of time. Because they were afraid of being affected by the war, a group of people moved into the depths of the mountains and built a village. They named it 'Peace', which implied peace and tranquility in this world. However, something big happened and Taiping Village became a deserted village. Everyone in the village moved away. On the other side of the mountain, we have rebuilt a village, which is where you live now. "

Hearing this, my heart jutted. If I'm not mistaken, the important matter that the suited man mentioned should be related to the items in the dried well. That is to say, that was the cause of the whole thing, but at the same time I was surprised, because that was decades ago.

I wasn't even born at that time. My parents were probably still wearing their pants.

Why is this matter related to me?

Curious, I asked what had happened to the man in the suit.

The man in the suit did not answer him directly, but took out the compass and looked around, occasionally exclaiming, "The Dao is divided into Yin and Yang, and two villages are erected. One is full of vitality, and the other one is lifeless. The methods of a major power of the previous generation are truly something we cannot hope to match. Unfortunately, in that chaotic era, the number of people who could actually survive were truly too few. "

Seeing the man in the suit being so serious, I still felt a little uncomfortable. I kept feeling that the vulgar appearance of picking my nose was more suitable for him.

After putting away the compass, the man in the suit said, "Brat, although this village is a Gate of Life, it is still the eye of the formation. I don't know what is inside, so you have to be mentally prepared."

I swallowed. "There isn't even a shadow of a soul in this place. It shouldn't be dangerous."

The man in the suit picked his nose and pointed in the direction of the village. "Take a good look at these houses. There's nothing strange about them."

I looked in the direction the man's finger pointed. After looking for a long time, I finally reacted. The man in the suit was right, there was something wrong with the village. To be more accurate, the surrounding environment of the village was a bit strange.

Although the road was covered with weeds, not a single blade of grass grew near the house. If you looked closely, you would see that every house in the abandoned village had no weeds surrounding it, and the same was true for the yard.

If that's the case, then it's fine. But the strangest thing is that in a place where there's not even a blade of grass growing, there's actually a tree! A locust tree!

This locust tree was especially tall, and its branches were luxuriant. It was the clearest contrast to the surrounding environment. In this lifeless village, there was actually such a tall and big locust tree. This was clearly a little strange.

Having a single branch of the locust tree was definitely not a good sign.

Seeing this, I finally understood why the man in the suit said that. The quieter the place is, the more dangerous it is. This isn't my first time experiencing it.

"Look at how scared you are, you haven't even started, and you already can't walk anymore?" The man in the suit squinted at me.

I said stubbornly, "I'm tired. Can't I see that I'm carrying such a great living person?"

The man in the suit looked at me and then back at me with a strange look in his eyes. I felt a little uneasy at the sight of the man in the suit, and the uneasiness grew stronger and stronger at the thought of what had happened.

At that moment, I suddenly felt a weight on my shoulder, as if there was something extra pressing down on my back, making it hard to straighten it up.

I swallowed my saliva. Just as I was about to turn around, the man in the suit shouted, "If you don't want to die, then don't look around. Continue walking. We'll be fine once we enter the village."

These words gave me a fright. I asked in a trembling voice, "I... Is there something behind me? "

The man in the suit gouged his nose and said with a serious expression, "No, I really didn't …"

I groaned in my heart. This guy would lie without taking a breath. The more I lied, the more flustered I became. Then the sun broke through the clouds, and when the first rays of sunlight fell on me, I felt no warmth, but instead an endless cold.

At this moment, the thing on my back became much heavier, causing me to hunch over. Thinking about what the man in the suit said, I didn't dare look back.

I was standing in the middle of the bridge. There was a dead ditch under the bridge, and although the water in it couldn't flow, it was still clear.

I waddled on, pretending not to notice, and slowly moved to the edge of the bridge. Out of the corner of my eye, I glanced into the river.

It was only one glance, and it was enough to make me suck in a cold breath.

Through the reflection of the sun and the angle, I could see the reflection of my upper body in the water. Because I was pressed up to my waist, my back was arched.

If that's all it is, but the thing is, there's something on my back.

From the reflection, it was indeed a figure lying behind me, but it wasn't just one. To be exact, there was a second figure lying on top of the first; a third figure on top of the second figure; and a fourth figure on top of the third figure.

Layer after layer, they continued to pile up, superimposing layer after layer until they reached a terrifying height.

One by one, they lie on my back, like an assortment of arhat men. At a glance, there are at least a dozen of them. Their combined height is almost as tall as a bungalow. The figures did not move, just lay behind me. "One or two is fine, but there are more than ten figures lying on the ground. Who the hell can take this?

Imagine, a dozen or so figures were all lying behind you like a stack of arhats. Moreover, you had carried them on your back for more than ten miles. The whole time, those people had been staring at the back of your head, but you didn't notice them.

In this situation, just the thought of it was terrifying.

In the face of this situation, I was scared silly. My legs were trembling, and I couldn't move them at all.

I tried to calm myself down, but my legs and legs wouldn't obey me. I didn't fall to the ground, but it was like burning incense. At this moment, I suddenly felt a lot heavier behind me. I turned my head slightly, and out of the corner of my eye I saw a figure standing behind me.

The most terrifying thing was that the figure began to climb up my body, layer after layer, using both hands and feet to reach the very top. After that, he laid on the back of the last person.

In the same instant that the figure fell to the ground, I felt another weight on my back, and my waist bent even more, making me gasp for breath.

I groaned in my heart, these things completely treated me as a bus, want to get on, did not consider my feelings at all.

I panicked, thinking that if this went on, I would be crushed to death by these creatures. Although he did not know what had caused this situation, it was not important at the moment. The most important thing was to get rid of these things.

Under the stimulation of the crisis, I mustered all my strength and walked towards the village step by step with trembling legs and a dozen shadows on my back.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I almost couldn't hold on even after walking for a short hundred meters. The moment I walked into the village, sweating and panting, the heavy feeling behind my back seemed to have lessened, to have lightened a little.

I took a few more steps and felt more relaxed behind me.

I walked on, and with every few steps I got better. Gradually, my waist can also straighten up, the heavy feeling gradually disappeared. When I got to the front door of the first house, there was no longer any feeling of strangeness behind me.

I heaved a sigh of relief. I was finally able to escape this calamity.

At this moment, the man in the suit came over with a smile. He picked his nose and said, "You brat, you're pretty good at resisting. You can even carry the Ghost Treasure Pagoda on your back. Truly amazing!"

Upon hearing this, my anger flared up. "So you already knew!"

The man in the suit used a hand to pat my shoulder and said helplessly, "It's useless even if I know. I can't break this thing." If I had told you the truth earlier, you wouldn't have been able to survive until now. "

Although what he said made sense, but I was still very unhappy. I endured my anger and said, "What was that Ghost Treasure Pagoda you were talking about? Why did it appear on me? "

"Buddha has the Pyramid of Han, Ghost Beast and Ghost Treasure Pagoda, these things are very rare, ordinary people would not be able to see them, the people they meet are basically all dead, only you are a little special. As for the reason behind this, just look behind you and you will know. "

As he spoke, the man in the suit pointed behind me.
