Chapter 511: Can't find it on our head

Chapter 511: We cant be found

Du Wan spent some time when he passed by.

People stand on the top of a mountain and look out, thinking that the place is very close. Only when they get there do they realize that it is an illusion.

After walking for almost an hour, Du Wan arrived at her destination.

It is a small village in the middle of the mountains, with more than a dozen households.

Du Wan did not attract the attention of the villagers in the past, but first caused the dogs to bark.

Every household of the villagers here has a wolf dog and makes a living by hunting.

Some villagers came out of the house and soon saw Du Wan.

They were all surprised when they saw she was the only one. However, Du Wan's clothes showed that she was of unusual origin at first sight, and she also wore a long sword at her waist.

At this time, an old man stood up and said, "Girl, what are you..."

"Hello, uncle, I'm lost. I wanted to go to Niujia Village to find someone." Du Wan said with a good attitude.

The villagers were originally wary of strangers, but they were not very concerned about a girl having a baby, especially since the girl was good-looking and had a good attitude. While chatting with people, Du Wan also asked about the court's disaster relief, and whether he saw a team entering the mountain on the day of the earthquake, etc.

However, regarding the snow disaster, official messengers came twice, but did not provide any relief.

Its a small village like theirs, and the situation is pretty good.

No one has really seen whether anyone entered the mountains during the earthquake. The reason is that the mountain roads are different. The road into the mountain on the official road is the same, but there is a three-way road at the foot of the mountain. In this winter, everyone wants to stay at home. It's not surprising that no one sees them.

After the earthquake, no one went into the mountains these days.

Du Wan asked: "Is the earthquake serious in this mountain?"

"Serious." The old man replied with lingering fear, "It was like a landslide that day."

A woman interjected, "It wasn't just a landslide, I thought the sky had stepped down..."

Hee hee, there was a loud bang. A child said exaggeratedly, and a little girl next to him also said that day was terrible.

Du Wan knows this is terrible.

During the Chinese New Year, the villagers did not go into the mountains and did not know the specific situation.

At this time, Du Wan asked about the way to Niujia Village.

A simple and honest man said: "There was an avalanche on the other side of Nanshan Mountain and the road was blocked."

Da Lin, how did you know? the old man asked.

The man replied: "My wife's natal family is from Niujia Village. On the second day of the earthquake, my daughter-in-law was worried about her natal family and wanted me to go there, but I couldn't go."

The road was blocked. Not only was there an avalanche, but half of the mountain seemed to have collapsed.

Du Wan looked solemn after hearing this, but hope could not help but rise in her heart.

Could it be that the eldest brother couldn't come back from Niujia Village because the mountain road was blocked? It would be great if this was the case. Du Wan couldn't wait to go to Niujia Village to have a look.

Du Wan asked how to get to Niujia Village, and a villager pointed the direction.

Originally, she wanted to pay someone to lead the way, but when the man said that there was a landslide and the road was blocked, she changed her mind temporarily.

After thanking the villagers, she set off again.

Not long after leaving the village, Du Wan paused.

Some of the conversations coming from behind were very suspicious.

It was the old man and a woman talking in a low voice in the house.

The woman said: "Master, is the girl gone?"

Gone. The old man replied.

The woman said again: "I heard that the girl is going to Niujia Village to look for someone. Could it be..." "Don't worry, we won't be found." The old man smoked a dry cigarette.

Du Wan suddenly felt suspicious.

What's the meaning?

After waiting for a while, I heard nothing more from the two people.

For a moment she wanted to turn around and arrest the two for interrogation.

However, rather than investigating in the village, she wanted to go to Niujia Village first.

Ever since he heard some villagers say that the road between Niujia Village and the outside was blocked, Du Wan had a kind of hope in his heart. I hope that Du Qian has been missing because the mountain road is blocked and he is temporarily trapped in Niujia Village.

Climbing mountains and ridges in the middle of winter is something most people cant do.

But Du Wan couldn't help it. According to the map and the road pointed by the villagers, and the original road was blocked, she simply chose the most direct route-walking in a straight line.

It didnt take much time for her to find Niujia Village.

Niujia Village is surrounded by mountains. This village is not small, with hundreds of households. Because of the recent consecutive disasters, the life of the villagers is not easy.

When Du Wan arrived at the village, her heart sank before she even asked anyone.

No outside horses or guards were seen.

There is no shortage of people around Du Qian, and if these people temporarily settle down in Niujia Village, there is no reason why they will be in the house but not even a horse will be seen outside.

In other words, there are no horses in the whole village.

Du Wan was not in a hurry to find someone to ask, and quickly walked around the village.

Finally, we came to the largest courtyard house in the village.

The village chiefs family lives in this house.

Hearing someone knocking on the door outside, the eldest daughter-in-law of the village chiefs family went outside to open the door and was surprised to see a little girl, Who are you looking for?

Go to the village chief and ask about something.

Du Wan bluntly stated her intention.

After a while, the village chief came out and invited her in.

Du Wan sat down, and the village chief's wife went to pour a bowl of tea.

However, Du Wan didn't touch it.

She still kept in mind that she should not eat randomly when she was out alone.

Du Wan revealed his identity. The village chief and his family were surprised, and immediately knelt down in fear to say hello.

There is no need for these false etiquettes, please get up. Du Wan did not have much patience and asked directly, I would like to know, was there anyone in the village on the day of the earthquake?

"Yes. Early that morning, officials came to distribute food and encountered robbers. Later, a group of people came to investigate and left before the sun went down." The village chief recalled the events of that day and spoke in detail, not daring to do so. Something to hide.

He could not confirm Du Wan's identity, but he did not dare to question it.

Du Wan asked for some more details, especially the appearance of the leader.

The village chief did not dare to look directly at Du Qian's face, but he had glanced at it once or twice, and his description was similar to Du Qian's. However, they had already left Niujia Village before the earthquake. The mountain road out was blocked, and people in the village went out again. In this way, the village chief did not know what was going on outside.

That is, many families in the village are short of food now.

Almost every three to five days, someone will starve to death, either an old man or a girl.

After Du Wan asked clearly, he left a few taels of silver and asked several more houses. The things he asked were probably the same as those of the village chief. Then she left the village, but she kept paying close attention to the activities in the village and learned that most of the content of their chats was related to her.

He said that a beautiful girl came to the village and asked about what happened on the day of the earthquake.

How many gangsters from the village still want to rob her?
