"Have you found anything?" I asked Luo Tieshan, "No." Luo Tieshan shook his head, "Since the owner here has opened the door to greet him, let's go in and take a look." I greeted me, and then rode my horse and entered the village gate carefully. Although I couldn't feel the existence of a resentful ghost, based on my intuition, this village should be the center of the entire ghost domain. If you want to leave the ghost domain, you must start from here.

The road in the village is a relatively narrow dirt road. There are small farmyards on both sides, with only one person high in the courtyard wall. I can easily see the scene in the courtyard when I ride on the horse.

What surprised me was that every yard was very neat and all the items were neatly arranged, and there was no sign of messiness. It felt like the owner here was just going to work in the field and would come back soon.

"The houses here seem to be in the style of a long time ago, and they are a little different from the houses now." After looking at them for a while, Luo Tieshan suddenly said, "Can you tell me when it is exactly?" I hurriedly asked, "I can't tell, but it should be a long time ago." Luo Tieshan replied slowly.

I turned my head curiously and looked at the surrounding farmyards again, but these courtyards looked no different from the houses in the villages I saw, and I couldn't tell what Luo Tieshan said was.

It's no wonder that for this world, I'm just an outsider. Although I have been here for several years, I still have little understanding of this world. Luo Tieshan is native to this place, so of course he knows more than me. However, the problem of the house style he mentioned really doesn't arouse my interest. After all, I came here not to investigate ancient buildings. Now the only question I care about is how to leave, so after a few glances, I withdrew my gaze.

But at this moment, the surrounding scene suddenly changed, and many people appeared out of thin air, including men, women, young and old. They were all wearing very simple coarse cloth clothes. It felt like they were all villagers here. The village, which was still dead just now, suddenly became lively.

This scene made Luo Tieshan and I nervous, and looked vigilantly at the crowds coming and going around, ready to start the fight.

What's strange is that these people ignore our existence at all and are all doing their own things on their own, just like we are transparent, especially with a few children of seven or eight years old playing beside us. One of them appeared on the horse's legs, half of their bodies hidden in the horse's legs, and the other half was exposed, but he didn't notice it at all, and was still happily fighting and making fun with other children.

I looked down at the scene in surprise, and then I saw several middle-aged women walking over from the other end of the road, talking and laughing. My first reaction was to avoid it, but the road was too narrow. I immediately leaned out and could touch the courtyard walls on both sides. I couldn't hide at all, so I had to hold the Fiery Sun Knife and look at them vigilantly.

Several women were getting closer and closer, and their heads were almost touching the horse's mouth, but they did not react at all. Instead, one of the women said to the child standing in the horse's legs, "Tiedan, play, don't block the way here." While speaking, he gently patted the child's back with his hands. Then the child ran to the side, and then the women actually penetrated the horse directly.

I was stunned when I watched this scene, and it felt like I was watching a 3D movie. Everything was three-dimensional and real, and it was right next to me, but I could see it and couldn't touch it.

"What's going on?" I asked Luo Tieshan, "This is an illusion created by the resentful ghosts." "I repeat in confusion, and then looked around carefully. It seemed that this was the case, but I really couldn't understand why the resentful ghosts here did this.

At this moment, a commotion suddenly appeared in the direction of the village gate. Several men hurriedly walked in from outside the village gate. As soon as they entered the village, they shouted in panic, "Village Chief, Village Chief, Shi Tou was bitten by a poisonous snake while working in the field!"

As the shouts rang out, the originally peaceful village suddenly became chaotic. Men, women, young and old ran towards the gate of the village, and soon surrounded the people. Then, a strong man hurried over from a distance, and the crowd automatically gave way and let the man walk into the middle.

At this time, I also curiously urged the horse to rush over, passed directly through the villagers' bodies, and came to the middle of the crowd. I saw that the man being carried in had been placed on the ground, his eyes were closed, his face turned blue, and there was no trace of blood on his body. The village chief was squatting beside him, reaching out to reach his breath, and the villagers around were all watching nervously.

Soon, the village chief stood up from the ground, "How about village chief?" " Village chief, is there any stone to save?" Everyone around asked in a verbal manner, but the village chief shook his head gently. Although he didn't say anything, the meaning was clearly expressed. The crowd immediately fell silent, and everyone's eyes showed a strong sadness. Several middle-aged women were already wiping their tears with their sleeves.

"Stone, what's wrong?! What happened to our stone?!" A heart-wrenching voice suddenly sounded not far away, and a young pregnant woman stumbled from a yard with her big belly.

"Don't let her come over, it will make her angry. Help her back." The village chief shouted loudly, and several women rushed over and supported the pregnant woman. "Shitou wife, you are about to give birth, you can't go to the ground," a woman said, "What's wrong with Shitou?" the pregnant woman asked anxiously.

These words made it impossible for several people to answer. They silently held the pregnant woman's arm and walked back. The pregnant woman immediately realized something was wrong and began to struggle to rush to the crowd not far away. "Shit! What's wrong with you! You talk! I want to see the stone! I want to see the stone!" This miserable voice made the women beside her a little at a loss. While crying silently, she grabbed the pregnant woman's arm tightly.

After struggling for a few times, the pregnant woman suddenly disappeared and her body became soft. If someone hadn't helped her, she would have fallen down. "The stone wife fainted!" One woman shouted loudly, "Blood! Bleeding!" Another woman shouted immediately. At this time, the people next to her found that the pregnant woman's pants had been soaked in blood, and the bright red blood began to drip down the trousers to the ground under her feet.

"Come on, lift her back! Hurry!" the village chief shouted anxiously. Several women immediately grabbed the pregnant woman's arms and legs and lifted her up. Although the pregnant woman's body was a little heavy, the farmers' women have been used to farming work since childhood, and their strength is much greater than that of most men in the city.

After lifting the pregnant woman, she almost walked steadily and soon walked into the small courtyard where the pregnant woman came out, leaving a long string of bright red blood on the ground where they walked past.

The sky gradually darkened, and Shi Tou's body was still lying in the open space at the entrance of the village. There were only two villagers guarding each other. The rest of the village gathered outside the gate of Shi Tou's house. Only the women who helped her in were busy delivering their babies in the house.

At this time, the pregnant woman had been in the house for several hours, but there was no movement at all. All the people who were guarding outside looked anxious. The women in the house would occasionally come out to ask something to apply. At this time, the crowd would ask a few questions in a low voice, but the news made everyone even more anxious. The pregnant woman had woken up from a coma, but she had bumped into the fetal aura and had too much blood flowing, and her body was extremely weak now.

If it were in a modern large hospital, pregnant women would definitely be transfusions. However, in this world with backward technology, blood transfusions would not be possible, and no one dared to think about them. All they could do was rely on their own vitality to grit their teeth and hold on. If they survived, God would bless them. If they died, they would be like this.

Finally, when the moon was on the treetops, a baby cried out in the room. This sound made the crowd guarding outside the door excited, "Birth!Birth!" Almost everyone shouted in a low voice, and then a woman who was delivering her baby in the room walked out.

"Boy? Girl?" Almost several people asked in unison, "It's a boy." The woman replied with a blank expression, but there was no joy on her face. This immediately gave the people present a bad premonition and asked tentatively, "How about sir?" The woman did not speak, but just shook her head slowly. The excited crowd was immediately silent. A simple and grand funeral was held, and the Shitou couple were buried outside the village.

Time passed day by day, and the scene in front of me was still continuing. Now I already knew that the village was called Xujiazhai. The people in the village were very good, and they were related to each other, with only Shi Tou, because his hometown was Zhoujiazhai dozens of miles away.

There is a Black Stone Mountain a hundred miles away from Xujia Village. There are a group of vicious bandits entrenched on the mountain, with almost a few hundred people. As long as the men in the village they have been killed and the women snatched away, the food and valuable things will naturally not be spared, and then the houses will be burned out.

In this lawless world, such things happen often. I also understand why Xujiazhai is not rich, but it is necessary to build such a high village wall. It is precisely because the village walls here are tall and strong. Although the bandits have been coveting here for a long time and have tried to fight several times, they have never succeeded. After all, they are not well-trained regular troops, and it is really difficult for them to attack cities and villages.
