A group of people stayed for a while before going down the mountain to the village.
White mist shrouded the mountain tops, and dense forests blocked the sky.
At the edge of the dimly lit jungle, a long and narrow suspension bridge woven with plant vines leads to the distance.
In front of the suspension bridge, there was a wooden sign that had been corroded by wind and rain, and the words "Fifteen Nights Village" written in black ink could be vaguely seen on it.
The slender and tall young man in black walked onto the suspension bridge. Under his black hair, his calm eyes silently stared at the looming village in the distance. He seemed to be walking on flat ground, with his hands hanging naturally by his side, taking one step at a time, not in a hurry. .
Beside the suspension bridge, a group of people stood there blankly.
Chi Feichi took a few steps and found that no one was following him. He turned to look behind him and asked calmly, "What's wrong?"
What's wrong?
Reiji Fukuura, Haruka Tendo, Takuto Iigai, and Yasumi Shiratou all turned pale.
This suspension bridge is woven with vines and connected with wooden pedals in the middle. It is so primitive that it makes people feel like they are in the tropical rain forest of South America. Moreover, the pedal is so narrow that it can barely accommodate an adult's foot. There is a gap of thirty centimeters. Looking down from above, you can clearly see the bottomless rock wall below.
Can people walk on this suspension bridge?
If it fell, it would be impossible to even recover the body.
Conan laughed dryly, and Fei Yingli also sweated.
They were still thinking about how to get there, but Chi Feichi walked up naturally. They didn't even have time to call Chi Feichi to stop...
The three children, Gentai, Mitsuhiko, and Ayumi, huddled behind Dr. Ali and looked at Chi Feichi.
The way Brother Chi looked back on the suspension bridge was so supernatural.
Hui Yuan Ai looked around, feeling like he was watching a horror movie, and said, "No one dares to go there."
"Looking from above, this is the only way to enter the village." Chi Feichi stretched out his hand and tugged on the vine at his hand, "Don't worry, it belongs to the kudzu vine."
"Kudzu, Kudzu?" Shiratou Taimei was still confused.
"A poorly woven hemp rope is not as strong as a kudzu vine." Conan said.
"Many bridges in ancient Japan were made of plants. When Fei Chi walked up, the vines were not broken. They should be strong enough for people to walk on," Fei Yingli said, always feeling weird, like Chi Fei Chi being thrown away It's like going out to be a guinea pig and saying, "Ahem, but the pedal gap is a little too wide for children, so it's a little difficult to pass."
Chi Feichi turned around and walked back to the suspension bridge, "How about you go back?"
"No, no!" Mitsuhiko said hurriedly, "If you want to go, just go together."
Tomiura Reiji gritted his teeth, "We've all come here, it would be a pity not to go and see that village!"
"But..." Iigatakuto felt a little weak.
"Anyway, I won't go back like this!" Reiji Fukuura insisted.
"I will be responsible for sending the children there," Chi Feichi bent down and picked up Haiyuan Ai. "Others who are not afraid of heights can try to cross by themselves. Don't look down when passing by. The gaps between the planks are the same. As long as you control your walking rhythm and look ahead, you can pass easily."
Fan and Takuto said, "Isn't that why you just walk with your eyes closed?"
"You can walk with your eyes closed," Chi Feichi carried Hui Yuan Ai towards the suspension bridge, "Xiao Ai, don't be afraid, let's hurry up."
"Ah?" An ominous premonition suddenly arose in Haiyuan Ai's heart, but it was too late for her to speak.
Chi Feichi directly used the two pedals of his running machine to stand down and quickly ran towards the opposite side.
The suspension bridge swayed in the air. Haiyuan Ai took the time to look below, and his feet became weak.
Ten seconds!
Chi Feichi put Hui Yuan Ai down and ran back.
Yuantai was still in shock when Chi Feichi bent down and picked him up, "Ah! Wait!"
Chi Feichi had already run onto the suspension bridge, reached the other side in ten seconds, put down Yuantai, and ran back.
Next, Ayumi.
Next, Mitsuhiko.
Next up, Conan.
Chi Feichi put Conan down and ran back to the other side of the suspension bridge.
Conan and the other four looked at each other.
No one felt scared because they were already here before they had time to be scared.
"It's very simple to master the rhythm." Chi Feichi tried to communicate with a group of adults, but the effect didn't seem to be very good. He simply stretched out his hand and said, "Master's wife, you hold me, heaven, you hold my master's wife, and then Bai Teng, I’ll take you over first.”
Fei Yingli stretched out her hand to hold Chi Feichi and warned with a pale face, "Don't run away."
"I got it," Chi Feichi and other women's groups formed a line, and said to Fukuura Reiji, Dr. Agasa and Iigatakuto, "You can follow behind and walk on your own. It doesn't matter if you go slower. Don't look at your feet. Stop if you can't make it. Get off and wait for me to pick you up."
"Okay, thank you!" Iigatakuto said sweatily.
Chi Feichi spent nearly five minutes walking slowly, taking the female group over, and then went back to take Dr. A Li.
It’s not easy, it’s like he’s taking a tour group.
Fukuura Reiji didn't want to give in, so he gritted his teeth and walked over by himself, and also led Iigatakuto over, which saved Chi Feichi a lot of effort.
"Ah!" Ayumi suddenly looked at the jungle and screamed.
"Ayumi?" Conan looked over immediately, but saw nothing, "What's wrong?"
"No, it's nothing," Ayumi stared at the jungle and frowned, "I seemed to have seen a strange man wearing a bird-head mask and feathers just now, but he disappeared in an instant."
Shiratou Yasumi was a little nervous when Ayumi said it, so she laughed and said, "Are you too nervous, little sister?"
"Anyway, let me contact Mr. Wakura..." Fei Yingli took out her mobile phone and looked around, "Huh? There is no signal here at all."
A group of people could only walk to the village first, walking through the woods and rice fields. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the village, they were stopped by a man in his twenties and eighty-year-old wearing a police uniform.
"I am Issei, the resident police officer here," the man took out his police ID and showed it to the others, "I heard from the villagers that a group of suspicious people came across the suspension bridge at the heart of the mountain. It should be you, right? May I ask where you are from and what brings you here?"
"We are from Tokyo!" Genta answered quickly.
"I am Mr. Wakura's lawyer," Fei Yingli said politely, "He seems to be in poor health recently, and I was anxious to find him to confirm some issues, so I came here."
"It turns out that you are President Wakura's lawyer," Master Issei breathed a sigh of relief, and his originally cold tone softened a bit. He looked at Chi Feichi and others, "Then they are..."
"This is my husband's disciple," Fei Yingli looked at Chi Feichi, "I met them camping together on the road, so I asked them if they wanted to come with me. They seemed to be very interested in this village."
"I see," Tu Shi Yicheng looked at Chi Feichi's emotionless face and felt it was strange. He didn't look at it anymore and turned around to lead the way, "Then I'll take you to the villa of President Hecang's family."
Along the way, the three children Genta, Ayumi, and Mitsuhiko began to ask questions, and the master Issei also answered them enthusiastically.
"Uncle police officer, don't any outsiders usually come to this village?"
"Yes. Apart from President Wakura's family these years, you should still be the first group."
"I heard that this village is related to the Mesoamerican civilization. Is it true?"
"This... I can't say for sure, but the Big Bird God is worshiped here."
"Big Bird God?"
"Legend has it that a long time ago, a huge hawk appeared here, attacked the villagers, and sacrificed the villagers," said the native master Issei, stopped and looked at a big tree on the side of the road, "This is A sacrificial tree for the great bird god.”
The big tree looked to be quite old, more than 30 meters tall. It was tall and strong, with lush branches and leaves. There was a rope wrapped around the trunk, and a sharpened branch protruded from the middle of the branch.
"As for the log over there, it's called the tree where the gods reside." Issei, the local master, pointed to a log not far away. "It is said that it is the place where the great bird god rests."
The log is very thick, and even an adult may not be able to hold it in his arms. It is placed horizontally, with two bases under both ends, like a bench, and there is a large boulder in front of the log, which looks very strange. eccentric.
"Because the Moxa has a habit of impaling the captured bugs or frogs on the branches. These poor prey are called Moxa's sacrifices." Tushi Issei said, "So in the past, the village selected The sacrifice will hold the sacred tree tightly and pray to the Big Bird God for a good harvest in the village and for no catastrophe in the village. If the Big Bird God is willing to accept the prayer, then the next morning, the sacrifice will be raised. pierced high into the branches of the sacrificial tree.”
Conan looked up and saw that he was impaled on the sharpened branch...
Tiantian Qinghua thought about the scene of hanging corpses on it, and felt a little uneasy, "We seem to have seen other sacred trees and sacrificial trees along the way."
"Yes, there are many such sacrificial trees in the village." Issei, the local master said.
Fukuura Reiji was snapping photos with his camera all the way, "You don't still have human sacrifice here, do you?"
"Haha, how is that possible?" Master Issei laughed, "The current saying is that as long as you hug the tree and make a wish, your wish will come true."
"Really?"
"Then I want a hug!"
"Can I wish for a hundred bowls of eel rice?"
The three children ran towards the divine tree.
"Ah..." Fei Yingli turned to ask Issei, the native master, "Is it okay to touch those things rashly?"
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter," Issei, the local master, smiled and watched the three children playing next to the tree of gods. "Anyway, many children and young people in the village have made wishes with the tree of gods in recent years. I heard that it is quite popular. It’s efficacious!”
"Yeah?"
Probably because of the romantic bacteria that women carry, Tendo Haruka, Fei Eri, and Shiratou Taimi are all interested.
A group of people simply went to the vicinity of the sacred tree, intending to experience holding the sacred tree and praying first.
Huiyuan Ai also hugged the divine tree with a serious face, closed his eyes for a moment, then stood up and looked at Chi Feichi who was standing aside, "Brother Feichi, don't you make a wish?"
"I don't believe that." Chi Feichi looked at the surrounding mountains, calculated the direction, and looked to the southwest. "Mr. Tushi, is there a shrine about 300 meters in this direction?"
"Ah? Yes, yes," Tu Shi Yicheng's expression changed. He looked at Chi Feichi again and again, confirming that he had never seen Chi Feichi in the village before. "I haven't measured the distance. It's probably more than three hundred meters. But how do you know?"
Conan stopped toying with the God's Tree and looked at Chi Feichi curiously.
Chi Feichi still looked to the southwest, "If the three surrounding mountains correspond to the Pyramid of the Sun, the Pyramid of the Moon and the Quetzalcoatl Temple in Teotihuacan, then they correspond to the Pyramid of the Quetzalcoatl in Teotihuacan." Quetzalpapalotel Palace, also known as the Palace of Birds and Butterflies or the Palace of Butterflies, is the residence of the priest. This should be the shrine where the priest or witch is located. Based on the size of the building here, it should be 300 About meters."
Haibara Ai:"……"
The first time I came here, I figured out the location of the shrine. It was Brother Chi 666.
Conan was speechless for a moment, and quickly thought of a question, "So, is this village really related to the Mesoamerican civilization?"
Hui Yuan Ai looked at the local master Issei.
"Well..." Tushi Issei scratched his head and laughed, "the three mountains around the village are indeed called Sun Mountain, Moon Mountain and Shensu Mountain. I am not very clear about the others."
