The other side of the Yellow River has been uninhabited for decades, and it is full of devastation and trauma. Decades ago, the old houses and caves left by the ancestors are all there, but they are empty. The three of them were hungry and thirsty, and walked for thirty or forty miles, when they met a child herding cattle on the high slope of the loess in front of them.

Life on the high slopes of the loess is extremely difficult, and in winter, the old cattle can only find some hay roots under the loess for food. The child's face was red from the cold, wrapped his coat tightly, and stood in the cold wind and looked at the three strangers in surprise.

"Child, where do you live? Is there anything to eat? That shouted.

Unexpectedly, when the child saw the three of them coming, he was so frightened that he burst into tears, threw the whip of the ox, and ran backwards.

"Huh? What are you running? We're not goblins? What is this for? Dude has to help him with the cow. Then he caught up, grabbed the rope that tied the ox, and chased in the direction of the child.

Climb over two loess high slopes, overlook down, a small village appeared in front of a collar, this village is about a dozen households, it is now more than ten o'clock in the afternoon, every household chimney is smoking, the three of them have not yet stepped out of the village, they listen to the dogs in the village barking wildly. A big black dog, with two pastoral dogs, ran out with joy, first welcomed the children back to the village, and then stood at the entrance of the village and grinned at them.

"Call again? Then I will slaughter you all and stew the dog broth and drink it! Na Xuan glared and said viciously.

Like them, who have killed people, they all have an invisible murderous aura on their bodies, ordinary people must not feel it, but they can't hide it from these earth dogs, the three dogs and Na Xiu glanced at each other, and immediately ran back with their tails clamped in fright.

There weren't many people in the village, maybe the children went back and told the adults, and after a while, seven or eight old men in their fifties and sixties, carrying sticks and hoes, rushed out, thinking they were human traffickers.

"Everyone, don't get me wrong, we're just passing through here, and we can't walk anymore because we have nothing in our stomachs, and we want to come and ask for something to eat and drink." Ma Chengfeng took the rope that tied the cow in Na Xiu's hand, walked over and returned it to the family. Then he took out fifteen dollars directly from his pocket.

The three of them are handsome men and beautiful women, plus they are fashionably dressed, so they don't look like bandits who kill people without blinking.

The simple fellows glanced at each other and enthusiastically let them in. This small village is even poorer than the other side of the Yellow River, and it is the end of this year, and the village has not even been electrified, and everyone is wearing patches and patches. What's even more strange is that the clothes on this group of people turned out to be in the style of the Republic of China.

"Huh? Do you pay attention to their clothes? Xiao Man stabbed Ma Cheng Feng and said.

"Well, I saw it, these clothes seem to be from the dead bodies in Zhujia Village."

Na Xiu swallowed his spit and asked in a low voice, "We won't run to Zongzi Village again, right?" ”

"Not really, you sniff...... There is a ...... in these people One ...... The simple breath, when you speak, you spit out straight out of your mouth, and the dead in your family have a temperature? Do your dead people breathe? Ma Chengfeng gave him a blank look.

On the Loess Plateau in the northwest generation, water is an extremely scarce resource, and some people may only take a bath twice in their lives, once when they are born, and once before wearing a shroud to be buried. Ma Chengfeng was embarrassed to say that they were dirty, so he used the word "simple".

Fifty dollars can do a lot of things, and in a restaurant in a big city, I'm afraid ten people can't eat it all if they have enough energy. Therefore, the villagers in the small village are very welcoming, but the best food for every household is the bowl of noodles with stick noodles. But even such coarse food is now a relief for them. The three of them were eager to lick the bottom of the bowl clean, and finally, Momo Mo's mouth burped contentedly.

Few people come to the small village, outsiders are reluctant to come, and the old people in the village are even more reluctant to go out. The simple villagers have multiplied from generation to generation on this barren Loess Plateau, they do not ask about the world, they are not afraid of the harsh environment, and no one knows what they are still attached to.

In the cave, only a respected elder in the village accompanied them, and the other villagers gathered outside the courtyard, looking curiously.

"Baby, are you...... Where did it come from? The old man asked, pointing in the direction of Zhujia Village.

"Yes, we are northerners, and we have heard that there is a magical ancient village of the Republic of China in our Gannan area, and we have a little spare money in our hands and want to take a look to see if there are any investment prospects." Ma Chengfeng was full of food and drink, and a small cigarette was in his mouth again.

"You ...... You guys??? Are you really human? The old man looked at them blankly.

"Guy, what do you say? Why did you talk nonsense in broad daylight? Come on, come on, touch it, see if we have a question? ”

The old man was really trustworthy, and reached out and touched Ma Chengfeng's face. "Amazing! Can you come out of Zhujia Village alive? For decades, no one who has been to Zhujia Village has ever come out alive. ”

Xiao Man frowned, listening to the old man's meaning, as if he also knew something about Zhujia Village. But why does he say that no one has come out alive for decades? Didn't you say that in recent months, there have been leaders of the county tourism bureau who have been there?

But this old man has no grievances with them, has never met them, and will never deceive them. So the question is, the old branch secretary and the old man on the other side of the Yellow River, which of them is true?

"Baby, you have a big life this time, don't go there again, it's a cursed village. There is no chance of survival! The old man sighed and said.

These three foreign children are the VIPs of the village, the village took out the best food and drink, Ma Chengfeng took a sip of tea, but the layer of tea foam on the surface of the teacup has never dispersed, it is estimated that this tea has been at least fifty or sixty years, and it has changed a little.

Ma Chengfeng asked him, how do you know about the things in the village?

The old man's next words shocked the three of them. It turned out that all the villagers in this small village were descendants of Zhujia Village, and they were all long-term workers or soldiers of the rich man Zhu at the beginning. Later, Zhu Caizhu had an accident, and Gannan became a base in the red zone, and everyone knew that if he stayed here, he would be implicated sooner or later. One of these people was more clever and dug a tunnel under his cellar in advance to the outside of the village. This group of people escaped with the old and the young.

Because of the high terrain here, surrounded by high loess slopes on the left and right, the Yellow River will not affect this place after the burst, so they will eventually settle here.

"Then why don't you go?" Ma Chengfeng asked him.
