The group of four quickly arrived at the town.
The entire town was desolate, and weeds were everywhere. It was obvious that no one had lived in it for a long time.
From the houses in the town, it could be seen that the town should have been quite prosperous in the past. However, it was empty now. There was obviously a problem here. The Lord Zeng, who was the leader, said,"Everyone, be careful. This town is a little strange. Second brother, follow me closely."
"Yes, Lord Zeng!"
Deputy Zhang and Master Eight said after hearing the instructions.
However, Zhang Qifeng did not respond at this moment. Instead, he stared at the grass beside him and said,"Big brother, look at the stone tablet in the grass and the stone beast statue. It seems to be quite old.”
"Oh?"
Lord Zeng turned around.
Then, he stared at the stone tablet and the stone beast statue.
But at this moment. The Eighth Master, Qi Tiezui, screamed as if he had seen something terrifying.
"Eighth Master, what's wrong?" Deputy Zhang quickly asked.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, Deputy Zhang, the carving techniques of these stone tablets and stone beast statues seem to be similar to those we found on the train. If I'm not wrong, these things should be from the Northern and Southern Dynasties.”
When he said this, there was still some shock in Lord Eight's voice.
"What is it? Are you saying that these things are from the same tomb as the coffin on the train?”Lord Zeng asked in surprise.
"That's right, Lord Zeng. From the material and carving of these things, it's true. They all belonged to Nanbei Chao. Moreover, the owner of the tomb on the train was an extraordinary person. He should be a noble. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many coffins. According to the funeral custom of the Northern and Southern Dynasties, no one was allowed to build tombs around the tombs of the nobles. Therefore, these things must have come out of the same tomb.”
Lord Myna replied firmly.
"In that case, we should have found the right place. No wonder this cottage was so desolate. So this was the place where the ghost fire carriage had appeared. However, there's no one in this town. What should we do next? Lord Zeng!" Deputy Zhang asked.
"Since we've found the main person, we definitely can't return empty-handed. Everyone, be careful. Let's go into the town and take a look. We might be able to get some clues.”Lord Zeng said as he walked into the town. Zhang Qifeng followed closely behind.
Adjutant Zhang naturally wouldn't hesitate.
The three of them walked into the town.
Master Eight could only follow.
After all, although he was afraid, he was still a loyal person. He would not leave Lord Zeng and the others here. Moreover, he had no other choice at this moment. The donkey was also left on the road.
With his body, he would probably die of exhaustion on the way.
Therefore, he could only follow one path to the end.
Under Lord Zeng's lead, they started searching the town.
However, 15 minutes passed.
They had walked through more than half of the town, but they did not find any traces of a living person.
Just as they were about to give up.
Suddenly, the sound of a door opening could be heard from a house in the distance. Then, a woman walked out from inside. She was pulling a child and carrying a bag on her back. It was obvious that she was preparing to leave the town.
Seeing this, Lord Zeng quickly turned his head and said,""Adjutant, go up and ask about the situation."
"Yes, Lord Zeng."
Adjutant Zhang quickly nodded.
Then, he walked forward.
After a series of twists and turns, Deputy Zhang finally returned. The latter looked at Lord Zeng and said,"The woman said that the reason why there was no one in the village was because there were a few large-scale mining accidents in the mines behind the town, which killed many people. Ever since the mining accidents, the village was often haunted, so the people in the town did not dare to stay any longer and could only leave their homes.”
"Oh? Mine? In that case, the ghost fire carriage really came out from here.”Lord Zeng said thoughtfully.
"That should be right. Also, that woman said that before the mine accident, a group of pirates came to the mine. After the accident, those pirates left.”Deputy Zhang continued.
"Japanese pirates? Mine? Interesting. This matter was getting more and more interesting.”
Lord Zeng stroked his chin and smiled.
"Since the situation is clear and the pirates have left, should we return to Changsha?”Lord Eight asked expectantly.
"Return to Changsha City? No! I've decided that we'll stay here tonight. Since this place is the origin of the ghost train, we must investigate it no matter what.”Lord Zeng said solemnly.
"What is it? Live here? Lord Zeng, are you joking? Didn't you hear what Deputy Zhang said just now? The reason why the people in the town left their homes was because this town was haunted. Why did you still want to stay here?”
Eighth Master Qi Tiezui said in fear.
One had to know that they were cheaters who were easily tainted by Yin and Yang.
Therefore, Lord Eight was naturally very afraid. When he heard that Lord Zeng wanted to stay for the night, cold sweat broke out on Qi Tiezui's forehead.
"Do you think I'm joking? Cut the crap. I must investigate this town. Don't worry, since Lord Zeng has brought you out, I will bring you back no matter what.”"Continue forward," Lord Zeng said seriously.”
As soon as he finished speaking.
Qi Tiezui wanted to say something.
But in the end, he didn't say it.
He could only bite the bullet and continue walking forward. After all, he knew the temper of this Lord Zeng very well. Once he had decided on something, even nine bulls could not pull him back. Perhaps he would listen to Zhang Qifeng's opinion. However, the little Lord Zeng was also very excited.
Therefore, Master Eight could only follow.
Everyone continued to walk deeper into the town.
It was just as they had guessed.
There was no trace of anyone in the entire town. It was like a ghost city!
