Become a god from looting the rich

Chapter One Hundred and Eighty Nine

Zhang Hang took a deep breath and felt the coolness in the air. I have to say that although this place makes Zhang Hang feel very dangerous, the air quality is really good. If it is because of danger, Zhang Hang really wants to stay here for a while.

"Nothing else is felt in the woods, and ordinary people are not weird. Why are they so afraid of the night? What's the matter with those weird earthquakes?"

Zhang Hang is now full of questions, but it's a pity that the people here can't give him the answer. They can only wait for the big mouse to wake up.

Zhang Hang walks in the forest. As the old man said, there are very few people in the village. People here rely on wild vegetables and game to make a living. Once in a while, Zhang Hang can only see one or two people passing by holding firewood. The only people who make Zhang Hang depressed It's like not seeing him, there is no sense of existence.

"Quack!"

Zhang Hang wandered in the forest for a day and didn’t see any strange sights. As for the cave, I didn’t even see any shadows. However, there were rich trophies. A fat wild boar was carried by Zhang Hang to the old man. Thatched cottage.

Seeing Zhang Hang coming back, the old man's eyes smiled slightly, but when he saw the wild boar, his eyes suddenly became very scary: "Immediately put the wild boar back into the forest!"

Zhang Hang looked at the old man with cold eyes, and his heart jumped. It was just a wild boar. The old man's eyes might not be a bit scary.

"I don't think you have any extra meat here. This wild boar is your reward for saving me."

Zhang Hang tried to explain, but the old man's expression became more and more ferocious. It seemed that what Zhang Hang was holding was not a wild boar, but his relatives.

"Don't be angry, I will put the wild boar back in the forest now!"

Zhang Hang threw the wild boar into the woods with a suspicious look. When he turned his head, the old man regained his smile. The change in the old man's attitude made Zhang Hang a little confused for a while.

"Young man, there are a lot of rules in this place, and you will understand it soon. Come in with me first. The sky is getting dark."

When entering the room, Zhang Hang's eyes subconsciously caught the sky. The sun was still hanging in the sky, but it was obvious that the sky was getting darker.

The thatched hut closed the door, the old man took out a candle and put it on the table, and a piece of marinated venison put it on the table.

"Young man, listen to my words, in the future, don't hunt animals in the forest casually, otherwise you will get into big trouble, and even bring disaster to the village. Fortunately, I was the only one who saw you carrying a wild boar. Let others see that you can’t even make it tonight."

The old man warned Zhang Hang while preparing the food.

"Can you tell me the reason? Is there anyone who bans hunting animals in the forest?"

Zhang Hang felt that this time he could understand from the old man's mouth what this place was.

The old man sighed and sat on the old wooden stool. The creaking sound made Zhang Hang feel that the chair would fall apart at any time.

"The villagers living here rarely even meet and communicate. Why would someone prohibit others from doing anything. It's just that someone once hunted animals that shouldn't be touched, and eventually a quarter of the village's population disappeared."

"disappear?"

Zhang Hang keenly captured the special words used in the old man's words, disappearing rather than dying.

When Zhang Hang woke up, the old man didn’t go out to chop wood. He just sat at the door and looked at the cloudless sky. Even if the sun was shining, Zhang Hang still felt a faint chill, even him, ordinary people like old people. Not to mention, it was winter here overnight.

"Old man, why are you sitting at the door? Wear one more piece of clothing on such a cold day."

Zhang Hang rubbed his sore legs, and when he walked to the door, he was stunned. The lush forest yesterday has become a dry and dead forest today.

The chirping birds have long since disappeared. Animals such as rabbits have all disappeared, as if they experienced the end of the night directly outside. Zhang Hang didn’t know if it was this way or something happened. But looking at the old man’s appearance, Zhang Hang There is a bad feeling in my heart.

"Hey, I didn't expect the catastrophe would still come."

The old man sighed, and Zhang Hang's expression changed slightly. The catastrophe the old man said was definitely not a good thing.

"Young man, I didn't expect that you would face catastrophe when you first came here. Maybe it's your fate. Enjoy the last sunshine."

The old man stood up and crouched into the forest.

Zhang Hang quickly caught up with the old man. The catastrophe was definitely dangerous. Zhang Hang didn't want to plunge himself into unknown danger. The old man didn't know the way to survive, but he certainly knew the catastrophe better than himself.

"Old man, I want to know about the catastrophe, I finally crawled out of the ghost gate, and I don't want to go to the Yin Cao Netherworld with a look of ignorance!"

Zhang Hang looked at the old man resolutely.

"Isn't it good to die ignorantly? The more you know, the more painful."

The old man shook his head, then pulled Zhang Hang back to the thatched house.

"When our ancestors came here, our village was very populous. It was a big village with a population of tens of thousands. Except for the loss of some villagers when we touched the taboo, most of the villagers died in the havoc that came and went. In the year’s history, the village has experienced two catastrophes, and the number of people who died each time exceeded four digits. I am afraid that the village will be extinct this time!"

The old man talked about the power of the catastrophe, Zhang Hang was full of cold, only feeling the creeps, the lethality of this catastrophe was a bit terrifying.

"Will the forest fall to life when the catastrophe comes? Haven't you thought about how to avoid the catastrophe for so long?"

Human beings are best at adapting to the environment and solving the dangers brought about by the environment. Humans’ desire to survive far exceeds that of animals. It is impossible for anyone to study how to survive the catastrophe crisis.

The old man smiled bitterly: "Everyone here is studying how to survive the catastrophe, but the final conclusion is that only the forbidden area can take us to escape the catastrophe. However, the forbidden area is elusive. Sometimes it will appear in the village, and some Sometimes he will appear in the forest, but more often it is in places we can't find."

Zhang Hang frowned, touched his chin, all kinds of clues in his head fluttered wildly, and the originally vague murals in the cave suddenly appeared clearly in Zhang Hang's mind.

Those strange pictures and strange texts, Zhang Hang actually understood all of them at this moment.

The story told in the mural is the story of this village. Zhang Hang doesn't know why he can see the secret of the mural in an instant, but it is not time to entangle these issues.
