Chapter 182 The Rules of Living in Yuezhuo Village
"Modern people from the Tang Dynasty?" The shy woman in Team 58 repeated in confusion.
"You'll know when you meet the village chief." The old man repeated, quickening his pace.
Along the way, Xia Shou and his team met more people in the village, and saw more immoral things like what happened just now, which could be said to happen anytime and anywhere.
The most shocking thing was that Xia Shou saw not only ordinary men and women, but also old people and girls!
But when Xia Shou cast his eyes over, the girl, who might be only seven or eight years old, showed him a strange smile, and the look and demeanor were clearly that of an adult!
The blood of cattle and sheep on the street was flowing, and the sound of sharpening knives came from several courtyards.
The doors of every household were open, and Xia Shou glanced inside. The butchers were dissecting beef very skillfully, and several cow heads were piled on the ground, and someone was removing the hair.
If Xia Shou remembered correctly, the Tang Dynasty should have prohibited the slaughter of oxen, unless the oxen died of illness or old age with the approval of the government, they could not be eaten privately.
But obviously, it was impossible for so many cattle to die accidentally at once.
And it was not just beef, there were chickens, ducks, sheep, and horses being slaughtered in other yards.
"Hey, beauty!" A man whistled at Xia Shou and his group while dealing with two peasant women.
The old man laughed: "Ignore them, go see the village chief first, you don't have much time."
Xia Shou felt a strong chill.
A kind of weirdness that is hard to describe.
This village is full of weirdness, and the villagers seem to know their purpose of coming here very well. The eyes of those people are like watching a death row prisoner go to the gallows.
The old man led them into the largest house in the area, with a plaque with the words "Zhang Mansion" written on it, and big red lanterns hanging around it. Unlit firecrackers were scattered on the ground, and the word "囍" was posted on the gate. The yard was decorated with lights and red silk everywhere, as if it was a wedding.
Walking inside, there was no sign of a wedding in the mansion, and there were shouts of people serving dishes everywhere.
Everyone spoke Mandarin, and occasionally spoke a sentence or two in English, which made Xia Shou feel that he had not returned to ancient times, but entered the filming site of a costume film.
The old man led everyone through the lobby and walked into a place that should be called a wing room. The door was wide open, and three strong men and a woman were seen lying on the bed from a distance.
The old man was not surprised by this, and walked straight in and said, "Village chief, there are outsiders!"
The woman stopped shouting, kicked the man away, sat up and looked at the people at the door.
"Oh~ Welcome!" The woman greeted with a hint of sarcasm.
"Sit down. I know why you are here and what you want to ask. Every batch of people who come here is like this. To save time, I will explain it to you all at once."
"Our village has been trapped on the same day for more than a thousand years. At 12:00 every night, everything in the village will be reset, but our memories will still be preserved, so we can actually be considered modern people, because there will be people like you in every era."
Xia Shou's eyes flashed, and he immediately understood why he could see those refreshing scenes since he entered the village.
It turned out that this village was trapped on the same day!
If it was trapped on the same day, there would be no need to care about laws and regulations when slaughtering cattle and sheep. Eat today and come out again tomorrow.
Naturally, there is no need to cultivate the fields, because there will never be a day of harvest.
As for the extremely chaotic relationships between men and women in the village, it is easier to understand.
They are a small group whose members never increase or decrease. In the long cycle of time, do you still want these people to abide by ethics and morals?
The youngest children in this village are all over a thousand years old.
That's not a child at all, just an old immortal in a child's skin!
"You have two goals, right? One is to go back to the past by going to the Seven-branched Historical Tree, and the other is to leave the Moonburn Village. We have clues about both of these things. As long as you agree to listen to us, we will tell you what we know." said the female village chief.
She went straight into the negotiation phase, and then added:
"Oh, by the way, don't think about using force on us. This kind of thing is not unheard of. I know you are all superpowered and very capable, but unless you can control our minds, don't even think about asking anything from us with your fists.
Hmph! Just show your cards. If there are people among you who can hypnotize, brainwash, and control our minds, show us, and we will tell you everything immediately.
But if there are no such people among you, you have to listen to us obediently.
You only have seven days, strictly speaking, only four days, so forget about the intrigues, it's a waste of time."
The woman looked like a village girl, but she exuded a sense of oppression from the person in power.
That was not a sense of oppression created by majesty and strength, but a kind of experience, a kind of foresight, a kind of confidence that knew the direction of the situation would be won.
She might not have enough brains and decisiveness, but in this village, under the constraints of these strange rules, no one understood the law of cycles better than her.
Besides, the people here are no longer simple ancients.
More than a thousand years... and not a thousand years of isolation from the world.
The people in this village are not easy to fool.
"There is nothing to hesitate. You don't have to be afraid. We must be reasonable. Come and sit down. Come and sit. Come, that ninja will sit next to me. I haven't dealt with ninjas before."
The female village chief looked at Kirigakure Goro, her eyes almost tearing up.
Wulang hesitated and said: "Sister...I have a fiancée."
The female village chief laughed, twisted her body and said:
"What's wrong with having a fiancée? No matter what you did here, you will forget everything when you go out. It's like a dream. Your mind can't remember it, and your body won't change. This is all because of the Waning Moon Immortal."
After saying that, the female village chief shook her chin at the men around her.
"You all go out, I want to talk to them alone."
The three men walked out obediently. Before leaving, they looked at the women in the team with greedy eyes.
After the man left the door, the female village chief went straight to the topic:
"You will become weaker and weaker in seven days. By the fourth day, most of you will not even be able to use your powers. By then, you will kill each other and you will be unable to persuade them... This kind of thing happens every time Happened every time.”
"Is there a way for us to get out?"
"I can't guarantee this. We can only provide you with the possibility of leaving Yuezhuo Village. As for whether you can get out, it depends on your ability. But if we don't tell you, you won't be able to get out even if you die. This is a certainty thing."
The female village chief licked her yellowish teeth and smiled teasingly.
She accidentally glanced at Xia Shou, her smile froze, her brows furrowed, and then returned to normal in the next second.
Although it was only for a short moment, Xia Shou noticed that the other party's expression was a little strange just now.
But before Xia Shou could think deeply, the other party changed the topic.
"You have brought dry food, right? Bring out the canned food and instant food. There is nothing edible in our village. After eating those things, the beef, sheep, and pork are really tasteless."
"I can give it to you, but in exchange." Bai He said.
Hearing this, the female village chief sneered: "That's no need. Just forget it if you don't want to give it. You can do whatever you want, kill people as much as you like, it's only seven days anyway, let's all live our own lives. "
