Chen Qi woke us up when the sky had just turned bright. Looking at the time, it was only five o'clock. It was not too early to leave now.
After getting up, we stopped for a while before driving to Uncle An's house. On the way, I told Second Brother about the strange dream I had last night.
"Little Shuang, have you had such a dream before?"”
"In the past, forget about dreaming. I would forget about it the next day. I always feel like this dream means something!"”
After listening to my words, Second Brother was thinking when Hei Zi came over and said,"Brother Shuang, I think your dad wants to save you. Otherwise, he would have come to you in his dreams.”
I listened to Blackie's boring words and said,"How is that possible? If my dad wants to save me, does that mean that the woman in the dream has fallen for me?”
Blackie looked at me with his eyes wide open."Who knows? Maybe your dad found you a good wife!”
After hearing Blackie's words, I was truly speechless. I didn't even know what to say.
Second Brother couldn't stand it anymore and continued Hei Zi's words,"I say, Blackie, are you getting cocky just because you didn't die? If you want to find someone, let Xiaoshuang's father find one for you!”
When Hei Zi heard Second Brother's words, he smiled to himself. Then, he reached out and handed a cigarette to Second Brother and me and said,"I'm just joking, I'm just joking, I don't want to die!”
I took the cigarette from Hei Zi and didn't say anything else. Second Brother continued to drive.
When it was almost six o'clock, we arrived at Uncle An's shop. From afar, we saw Uncle An cleaning the empty space in front of his shop. After seeing An, we greeted Uncle An one by one.
"Uncle An, why are you up so early?" I was afraid that we came too early!”
Uncle An put down the broom in his hand and said," It's good for your health to wake up early. I do this every day. After I wake up, I'll sweep the yard and then open the door to do business.”
Uncle An welcomed us into his shop. After we entered, I felt that the shop was so clean today. It seemed to be missing something.
After taking a closer look, I realized that there were no items on the cabinet. Seeing this, it seemed that Uncle An had made sufficient preparations for this trip to Black Wind Gully.
After entering, we sat down. Uncle An brought a few cups of tea from his back room and gave each of us a cup. He said to us,"These are tea leaves that I sun-dried myself. It's good for the body. You guys drink it. After you drink it, we'll set off!"”
After Uncle An finished speaking, he returned to the back room. He probably went in to get something. The few of us held Uncle An's tea and drank it. We didn't know what kind of tea Uncle An had made, but it tasted sweet. Then, we suddenly felt much brighter in our hearts.
When we were almost done with our tea, Uncle An came out from the back room and saw that he had changed his clothes. Uncle An was wearing a very simple hat and a robe. However, when he looked carefully, he didn't know what it was.
Seeing Uncle An's expression, our eyes widened. When Uncle An saw us like this, he said,"What's there to see! Hurry up and finish it!"
When the few of us heard Uncle An's words, we put down the tea in our hands and followed him out.
After Uncle An locked the door of the shop, we got into the car and drove in the direction of Lakshmi Village.
If we want to go to Black Wind Ravine, we must pass by Lakshmi Village. Uncle An is very interested in Lakshmi Village. Previously, after we told Uncle An about what we saw and heard in Lakshmi Village, Uncle An said that he would come to Lakshmi Village to take a look after one o'clock.
On the way, Blackie looked at his usual attire and said,""Uncle An, do you have a name for the outfit you're wearing today? Why can't I tell what kind of clothes these clothes belong to!”
When I heard Blackie's question, I turned around to look at Uncle An. At this moment, Chen Qi was also looking at Uncle An. Uncle An coughed and said,""Don't look down on my clothes. Although they are nondescript, they have a name. This is called the 'Heaven and Earth Robe'.”
"The reason why this robe is called the Qiankun Robe is because there is another world inside this robe! Even though the clothes didn't look good, they could still be used to save lives at critical moments!”
Hearing Uncle An's words, Blackie became even more interested. Actually, I'm also very interested. Isn't it just a piece of clothing? Could it be that this dress could die for him at a critical moment?
"Uncle An, what do you mean by another universe?" Hei Zi asked. Tell us about it."
"You'll know in the future," said Uncle An."You won't understand even if I tell you now!”
After Uncle An said this, he didn't say anything else. No matter how Blackie asked, Uncle An ultimately did not tell Blackie what this other universe meant.
When I thought about going to Lakshmi Village again, I couldn't help but worry. All of this originated from Lakshmi Village, and now we were going to Lakshmi Village again.
When I thought of Lakshmi Village, I suddenly thought of the Lakshmi Village's major event record that we obtained the last time we went to Lakshmi Village. Fortunately, Chen Qi had brought this along when she was packing last night, saying that she wanted Uncle An to take a look.
Thinking of this, I said to Chen Qi,"Qiqi, show Uncle An the book we brought down from Lakshmi Village last time!”
Chen Qi looked at me and said,"Yes!"”
"Then, Chen Qi took out that notebook. We had previously told Uncle An about Lakshmi Village, so Uncle An knew about this notebook. He just hadn't seen it with his own eyes.
Uncle An took the notebook and said after looking at it,"Such a traditional village would have a book like this. It's specially written to record the major events that happened in the village. According to what was written in the notebook, Lakshmi Village had been killed by a plague a long time ago.”
"But you went to Lakshmi Village several times. Logically speaking, this can't be explained. The only possibility is that someone in the village survived and then the village was slowly built up.”
Hearing Uncle An's words, I said to him,"We've thought about this for a long time, but we can't find a reasonable explanation. If we force it, we can explain it clearly, but it's all the same.”
Uncle An handed the notebook to Chen Qi and said to me,"Little Shuang, what exactly is going on with Lakshmi Village? We'll know everything once we get there.!”
Hearing Uncle An say this, I nodded.
At that moment, Hu Zi, who had been silent all this while, said,""Actually, the first time Qiqi and I went there, we felt that the village was very strange. We died as soon as we went there, and then we met Brother Shuang.”
"I still remember the first time I went there with Chen Qi. When I walked to the village entrance, I suddenly felt a cold wind behind me. At that time, I was still wondering why the weather in the mountains was so strange. Later, I realized that this village was really unlucky!”
After hearing Hu Zi's words, I also felt that something was wrong the first time Second Brother and I went there. Although the villagers were very enthusiastic, they seemed to be pretending.
When Uncle An heard Hu Zi say that, he said,""The fact that you can feel that way means that there must be something sinister in this village. This time, when I arrive at Lakshmi Village, I must find out the ins and outs of this village!”
After Uncle An finished speaking, we all nodded.
After that, we chatted about some things. Before we knew it, the four-hour drive was over. We saw the familiar mountain road in Shangjixiang Village.
We parked the car at the foot of the mountain and prepared to walk up the mountain.
Standing at the foot of the mountain, Uncle An looked around and said to us,"This place is a place where fish and dragons mix. Look at the mountains on all sides. They are naturally uneven and wild trees grow on the mountains. The people who could live here were either masters or ghosts. This place was not suitable for humans to live in. Even if they forcefully moved in, they would die soon after!”
Hearing Uncle An's words, I asked,"Uncle An, do you mean that no one will live here?”
Uncle An looked at us and said,"This terrain is called the Black Dragon Pool. It's one of the terrains that Feng Shui masters often talk about. This kind of terrain is not suitable for people. It's only suitable for ghost houses!" So I'm sure that no one will live here!”
Oh my god, if Uncle An is so sure, then the villagers of Lakshmi Village that we saw before, and so many people, are they not human? Could it be that we've only seen ghosts for most of the day?
I wanted to ask Uncle An again, but Uncle An said,"Since we're here, let's go up and take a look. We'll know what's going on once we reach the village.”
I didn't ask anymore after hearing what Uncle An said.
The six of us followed the path up the mountain to Lakshmi Village.
