Chapter 174

"Watch the house, how about it?" Mo Xuan turned his head and looked at the abandoned house on the side of the roadside, proposing.

Bai Jiu: "Yes."

Walking towards a deserted house beside him, Mo Xuan stretched out his hand and pushed the closed door tightly. The smoke and dust on the door were scattered, and the closed door was pushed open when the smoke and dust filled it.

"Don't the door be locked? This is not possible!" Mo Xuan shook his head and sighed: "It's really unsafe!"

Ignoring the nerves, Bai Jiu walked into the house. Seeing this, Mo Xuan walked into the house.

The house that Mo Xuan and Bai Jiu entered only had a hall and a room. Although the abandoned lobby in the house was called a hall, it was actually not big at all! In this small hall, there was only a set of old dusty tables and chairs.

Mo Xuan glanced at this hall that was clear at a glance and saw nothing strange.

Mo Xuan said: "Bai, have you discovered anything?"

"No."

Bai Jiu shook his head and walked towards another room.

Mo Xuan followed Bai Jiu into another room and saw a skeleton lying on the old wooden bed at a glance. He couldn't help but curl his lips and said, "It's a skeleton again! I'm tired of seeing it!"

Mo Xuan walked towards the wooden bed, keeping the vigilance he deserved. When he walked to the wooden bed, Mo Xuan carefully observed the skeleton on the wooden bed, but did not find anything that was just ordinary bones like the white bones outside.

Mo Xuan squatted down and looked at the bottom of the bed, but there was nothing. Mo Xuan stood up, looked at Bai Jiu who was observing the situation in the room, and said, "Bai, have you noticed it?"

Bai Jiu shook his head, "No."

"This is just an ordinary villager's home, and it is normal that nothing is discovered. We should go to some people who have status in this village to find some useful information." Mo Xuan said.

Bai Jiu: "Yes."

Mo Xuan and Bai Jiu walked out of the house of this ordinary villager.

"I remember there is a big house over there, which should be one of the largest in this village. Let's look for that house and find some discoveries." Mo Xuan pointed his hand in one direction and said.

"Yeah, go and have a look." Bai Jiu.

Mo Xuan and Bai Jiu walked towards the big house Mo Xuan said.

"arrive."

Mo Xuan stopped in front of a courtyard. The courtyard in front of him was surrounded by stone walls about one meter high. A house was located behind the small square paved with flat stone slabs in the courtyard. The house was built with a mixture of stone and mud, which was much stronger than an ordinary earthen house. This courtyard was the big house in Mo Xuan's mouth.

Bai Jiu jumped directly over the stone wall and stepped into the small square in the courtyard.

Mo Xuan, who was planning to enter through the door, was stunned by Bai Jiu's actions. After reacting, he couldn't help but secretly praise him.

Bai, so... smart! I'm so stupid! It's only about one meter of wall, and it can easily jump over with the attributes of virtual game characters, and there is no one inside! There is only a bunch of bones... It's all like this, why do you have to go there? I'm such a fool, I'm just a waste of time!

Mo Xuan also jumped over the stone wall and entered the courtyard, and stepped onto the small square.

Mo Xuan walked across the small square and came to the house. He stretched out a hand to push the door. The wooden door was not pushed open with force. Mo Xuan was stunned and scolded: "Damn! Lock the door!"

"But it's useless! A mere lock can't stop me!"

Mo Xuan pushed his hands hard, and with a "bang", the aging wooden door fell down, causing smoke and dust to fly.

After the smoke and dust disappeared, Mo Xuan and Bai Jiu walked into the house. The hall of this house was obviously much wider than that of the ordinary villagers, with tables, chairs, lounge chairs and other furniture available.

Mo Xuan carefully observed the hall, but found nothing. After scanning the hall, Bai Jiu walked into the bedroom on the left side of the hall.

Seeing this, Mo Xuan followed Bai Jiu into the bedroom.

"No skeletons!?" Mo Xuan entered the bedroom and did not see the skeletons. He said in surprise: "I thought I would see the skeletons in the bedroom again!"

"A Xuan, I've discovered it."

Bai Jiu's voice suddenly rang.

"What did you find?" Hearing the sound, Mo Xuan hurriedly walked to Bai Jiu.

"Look." Bai Jiu raised a yellowed book to Mo Xuan to read.

"What is written in it?" Mo Xuan asked curiously.

“I haven’t seen it yet.”

"oh."

Bai Jiu opened the first page of the yellowed book. Fortunately, the words on it were Chinese characters, so Mo Xuan and Bai Jiu could understand it. Mo Xuan and Bai Jiu read it together.

The village chief died today, and I was elected as the village chief by the people in the village. I am very happy. I will definitely work hard to be the village chief! And I decided to start recording the big things that happened in the village from today. October 10, Zhaowu 2017.

The autumn harvest in the village ended today. Because the weather is good this year and the grain harvest is very good, there should be no one starving to death in the whole village during the winter. I am very happy as the village chief. October 21, 2017.

Today, Old Man Wei died! I am very sad! Master Wei is very good and often helps people in the village. When he dies, everyone in this village is very sad. The people in the village see off Mr. Wei together, and I also participated. Looking at the coffin buried with soil, I couldn't help but think that I would die one day! November 3, 2017.

...

The yellowed book records the events that happened in the village line by line.

Mo Xuan and Bai Jiu quickly finished reading the first page, then turned to the next page, and continued to read. What happened in the village was briefly summarized and recorded, making it clear and easy to read, so Mo Xuan and Bai Jiu read it very quickly.

Page by page...

Turn to page 11:

A witch came to the village today. This is the first time I have seen a witch. The witch is terrible. But the witch who came to the village is very gentle and kind. As expected, the rumor is unreliable. The witch is also very beautiful, and the young people in the village are fascinated by it. However, I think my wife is more beautiful than the witch when she was young! May 6, Zhaowu, 26.

Today, Old Man Lin died, I was very sad! He is my good friend. We often chat and play chess together. In the future, I would be bored without Old Man Lin’s bad temper! I miss him a little. He is leaving tomorrow, and I will go to see him off. May 7, 26, Zhaowu.

Today, Old Man Wei’s grandson died, a young and strong man died suddenly... I was very sad. It was obvious that I was very sad to see Old Man Lin off today, and now I am even more sad! May 8, 26, Zhaowu.

Three people died in the village at one time today. They were all fine yesterday, but why did they die suddenly? What happened? So many people died in the past few days, and the village was panicked. I also felt that this was a bit strange, so as the village chief, I need to investigate. May 9, Zhaowu, 26.

Ten people died in the village today. What was going on? Is it really a witch who brought disaster? Zhaowu on May 10, 2026.

Today, more than a dozen people died in the village, and the poultry they raised suddenly died for no reason. I was so scared!

We decided to kill the witch and calm the disaster!

It's gone here.

"Bai, do you think so?"

After reading the yellowed books, Mo Xuan looked at Bai Jiu and asked.

"The death of the villagers is inseparable from the witch." Bai Jiu said: "This record suddenly broke in the end. It did not write about whether to kill the witch. I think it was because the plan to kill the witch failed and the village chief died."

"I feel so too." Mo Xuan nodded and said, "Otherwise, how could it be gone here! If the village chief survived, he would definitely continue to write it. After all, he has written it for nearly ten years, and the habit he has developed in the past ten years cannot be stopped suddenly."

"And if the witch was killed, the village would not be abandoned, right? Judging from the current situation, it seems like the villagers were killed by the witch."

Mo Xuan looked at Bai Jiu and asked, "So what to do now? Are you going to find a witch?"
