It was noon, and the sun was three poles high.
After a morning of fermentation, the entire Toyota Village knew that an outsider had arrived in the village today.
Or curious, or vigilant, or expressionless...
Hundreds of people in the village, large and small, always pass by Zhang Zhiqiang's home intentionally or unintentionally.
Not to mention an accomplished practitioner like Pei Wende, it is not difficult for ordinary people to feel the scrutinizing gaze coming from time to time.
"There must be something wrong with this village..."
After once again watching the villagers who "accidentally" passed by leave, the giant bear in human form muttered vaguely.
"There is definitely a problem, but the key now is where is the problem?"
Ku Chan, who was still meditating, opened his eyes when he heard the words, and expressed his anguish that the giant human-faced bear was just a brain problem.
In the current situation, everyone knows that there must be a problem.
Unfortunately, no one, including Pei Wende, could see the crux of the problem.
"Do you think...the farmlands in Toyota Village are a little strange?"
At this time, Pei Wende, who had been thinking for a long time, finally spoke.
"Is there anything strange?"
He turned his head with a blank look on his face. Although the giant bear with human face was once the mountain god of Sichuan, its knowledge of farmland and wheat seedlings was indeed beyond its scope of knowledge.
"That being said, it is indeed a bit strange."
The person who answered the giant bear was not Pei Wende, but Ku Chan who also showed a thoughtful expression.
"Stop playing riddles, what's so strange about those farmlands?"
Seeing this situation, the giant human-faced bear quickly asked curiously.
My wife and two children disappeared inexplicably after entering Toyota Village.
The giant human-faced bear just wants to quickly uncover the mystery of this strange village so that he can find the three guys who ran away from home.
"Do you still remember what month it is now?"
After giving the giant human-faced bear a slightly helpless look, Ku Chan could only continue to remind him.
"Although I don't leave Xianshan very often, I still remember things like the months and seasons."
The giant human-faced bear is telling the truth. Although it lives deep in Xian Mountain all year round, no one knows the changes in the four seasons of the year better than it does.
After all, it was once a mountain god, and paying attention to these things has become its instinct.
"You see, that's the problem."
There was a slight pause in his tone. Kuchan looked at the villagers coming and going outside the door, and his tone became deeper.
"Rice is mostly grown in Xiangzhou, and rice is planted in spring and harvested in autumn. It usually only takes one season to harvest."
"So even in places where rice is planted at the latest, the harvest will be harvested in October at the most."
At this point, Ku Chan did not continue talking.
Because the giant human-faced bear had already realized what the problem was, with a stunned look on his face but a slightly shocked mouth that opened wide.
"It's already the twelfth lunar month, but those farmlands are still not harvested?"
Not only was there no harvest, the rice fields were growing as well as in July and August.
This development trend that goes against the grain of time is simply refreshing the understanding of this era.
Even the greenhouse cultivation of later generations will never be as lush and dense as the farmland in Toyota Village.
"Perhaps all this is due to the blessing of the mountain ghost?"
Saying words that even he didn't believe, the giant human-faced bear fell into deep thought again.
"The mountain ghost you know has this kind of ability?"
Curbing his lips in disdain, Ku Chan's expression at the moment was dull and proud.
In fact, it's not surprising that Ku Chan is so conceited. The idea of a giant bear with a human face is really too unreliable.
If the mountain ghost entrenched here had such terrifying abilities, she would definitely not be just a mountain god in a mountain village.
"If the mountain ghost guy hadn't suddenly disappeared, just ask her directly."
He patted his cheek in annoyance, and the giant human-faced bear suddenly complained.
It hates the feeling of being surrounded by puzzles, and it hates the feeling of having guesses constantly being overturned.
"That mountain ghost probably didn't disappear 'suddenly'..."
After hearing the giant human-faced bear's complaint, Pei Wende, who looked slightly serious, continued to shake his head in denial.
"You said earlier that the mountain ghost is the mountain god here and enjoys incense here."
"However, from the moment we stepped here, I have never felt any trace of the presence of gods."
Bui Wende is known as the "Reincarnation of the Earth Dragon" and is a natural reserve for the mountain god's land.
Therefore, Pei Wende did not feel the presence of the mountain god here, which only means that there is indeed no so-called god in this land.
"gentlemen?"
Ku Chan obviously understood the meaning of Pei Wende's words and opened his mouth hesitantly.
"If that mountain ghost is real, then this situation can only mean that she has given up on Toyota Village long ago."
In a land abandoned by the mountain god, farmland rice grows strangely in violation of the year, month and season.
There was no need for Pei Wende to explain too much. The remaining two people present understood the meaning of his words.
Either there is a monster dove occupying the magpie's nest and fulfilling the responsibilities of the mountain god in place of the mountain ghost...
Either Zhang Zhiqiang didn't tell the truth from the beginning, and this village is pregnant with some kind of disaster beyond the imagination of adults...
Considering that most monsters in modern times cannot have the ability to violate the laws of nature, the latter is obviously more likely.
"Besides, don't you think it's a coincidence?"
When Pei Wende said this, he emphasized the sense of disobedience in his heart.
"The farmland in Toyota Village seems to be in a good state for a good harvest."
"We arrived at Toyota Village at this time, and the farmland in Toyota Village is just right for a good harvest. Isn't this a bit too coincidental?"
Pei Wende never believed that there were such coincidences in the world.
Combined with the strange situation of Toyota Village itself, Pei Wende already had some vague guesses in his mind.
"I want to go out and take a look again. You guys can help cover me."
Doing what he says has always been a characteristic of Pei Wende, and this time is no exception.
He suddenly stood up from the stool and walked straight towards the outside of Toyota Village.
During this process, no one except the giant human-faced bear and Ku Chan could see Pei Wende's movements.
Because the moment Pei Wende stood up, he hid his body and left a fake body in place.
This combination of clone technique and invisibility technique is the most commonly used technique in Qimen Dunjia.
If it weren't for the fact that Qi Men Dun Jia was mostly a deception, and the clone left behind was just a fake body, Pei Wende didn't even have to deliberately warn the giant human-faced bear and Ku Chan.
Even so, the fake body left in place can also imitate Pei Wende's original movements to a certain extent, so that outsiders cannot see the slightest flaw.
