Chapter 243 Strange Dian Village
Chen Zilan took Zheng Pei and asked the driver to drive them to Dian Village.

The road to Diancheng can be said to be a mountain road with eighteen bends and twists and turns. It was already past 12 noon when they arrived in Dian Village.

Dian Village is actually a small town in a county under Dian City. However, this town is located in a remote area, and it is located in the deep mountains and old forests. The population of the village is not large, and the terrain is complicated. , there is a valley below the village, and a gatehouse was built in the valley.

Since the cleaning incident happened here a few years ago, the entrance of the village has been re-reinforced, and a sentry box has been installed at the entrance of the village. There are not many people who come to this village. This village is not a place for tourism. Chen Zilan and the others came to the village naturally will be eye-catching.

The people in Dian Village are not like the people in the countryside of Quancheng, who will warmly greet you for tea or invite you to have a meal when foreigners come. The people in the village are full of vigilance and indifference to outsiders.

When Chen Zilan and the others arrived at the entrance of the village, they were stopped and their car was not allowed to enter. The driver was waiting for them at the entrance of the village.

When Chen Zilan and Zheng Pei arrived in the village, a group of half-grown children with sallow and emaciated faces surrounded them.

Chen Zilan asked: "Are you all from this village?"

The children did not speak, but looked at Chen Zilan and the others indifferently.

Wherever the two of them went, the child followed them. When they met an adult, Chen Zilan wanted to inquire about the local situation, and asked if there was any place for dinner, but the other person seemed not to understand her words, and still looked at him coldly. she.

Chen Zilan became more suspicious, exchanged glances with Zheng Pei, and walked further into the village.

The children followed them without saying a word. The cold air made Chen Zilan and Zheng Pei feel terrified, but they still wanted to find something worthwhile. They walked along the winding mountain road towards the middle of the mountain. It is a row of residential houses.

However, many houses are closed. There seems to be no one in the house at noon. Occasionally, one or two doors are open. When the old people or women in the house see the children behind them, they wave their hands like chasing ducks. Tell them to "go, go, go."

Chen Zilan and Zheng Pei walked around without knowing anything. They walked along the mountain road again. Zheng Pei seemed to vaguely see houses behind the mountains, so he pointed to the distance and said:
"Mr. Chen, look, there seems to be a house over there, a house that looks nice from the outside?"

Chen Zilan followed Zheng Pei's instructions and looked into the distance, vaguely as if there was a house: "Come on, let's go to a higher place to see."

The two of them walked for about a kilometer together with the silent children, and reached the top of a small hill, where the blurry house became clearer.

"There should be another village over there. This village is adjacent to another village." Zheng Pei looked into the distance, feeling a little blurred in the winter afternoon.

Chen Zilan looked at the mountain road, the road became narrower as he went up: "Well, I wonder if I can pass it?"

"It feels like that house is quite luxurious."

"Maybe it's a villa built by rich people here?"

"These two villages are adjacent to each other. Although the weather is good, is it too far from the city to live here? And if you look at this village, it doesn't look like a rich family." Zheng Pei analyzed in a low voice.

"Kids, do you know that house?" Chen Zilan asked the children following them again.

"No, we are orphans and grew up in this village." Finally a child answered their question this time.

"You guys." Chen Zilan looked at the children in front of him with some distress, no wonder these children were all sallow, emaciated and indifferent.

"Where do you live?" Zheng Pei asked one of the older children.

"No." The child pointed to a yard farther away in the village.

"Can we go and have a look?" Chen Zilan asked

"Yeah." The children led Chen Zilan to the courtyard.

Pushing open the door, there are still a few children in the yard, but these children are much better than the children following Chen Zilan and the others, their faces are all rosy, and they are much healthier, but everyone's eyes are very cold. His eyes are like ice in winter.

They were sitting and talking, but when they saw Chen Zilan and the others coming in, they all stood up, looking at Chen Zilan and the others full of hostility.

"Sorry, kids, to bother you, we just passed by and wanted to come over to see if there is any dinner available." Chen Zilan said apologetically.

"Come here." A child about 1.60 meters tall pointed to the child following Chen Zilan.

Several children walked over and stood behind him in rows.

"We have nothing to eat here, you go somewhere else."

Chen Zilan and Zheng Pei exited the yard.

"This village is a bit strange."

"Yes, those children are very strange."

"They don't look like ordinary orphans, and the last few children don't look like very lonely children. They seem to be the leaders of these children." Chen Zilan's doubts became more and more serious.

"I smelled it in their yard." Zheng Pei's voice was a little excited.

"Are you sure?" Chen Zilan asked eagerly.

"I'm sure." Zheng Pei nodded.

"If you smell it, why don't people from Diancheng come here?" Chen Zilan asked Zheng Pei as if she was asking herself.

The two of them glanced at the yard they had just left.

"Let's go, go back and find a way." The two of them can't do anything.

When we got down to the entrance of the village, the driver had already fallen asleep in the car.

Chen Zilan knocked on the car door.

"Master, open the door."

The two of them opened the door and sat in. The driver didn't say a word, and waited for the two to sit down before starting the car and leaving.

The two of them didn't eat at noon, and they climbed the mountain again. It was already past six in the afternoon, and the two of them were somewhat tired, so Zheng Pei leaned on his seat and squinted his eyes to rest.

Chen Zilan looked at the distant mountains and the darkening sky, and felt a vague bad feeling in his heart. With the driver around, they couldn't say anything, so they didn't say a word.

The village is full of oddities.

She picked up her mobile phone and called her colleagues in Diancheng, telling them that she was on her way back and would be back around 8:[-] pm.

After ten o'clock in the evening, Chen Zilan and Zheng Pei hadn't returned yet, and there was still no news from them after twelve o'clock in the evening.

Colleagues in Diancheng had no choice but to call Liao Guohua for help.

Liao Guohua came over with his clothes on: "What's going on?"

"Two of our colleagues called at 6:[-] p.m. and said they were walking back in Dian Village, but they haven't come back yet."

"I told you, don't stay away, the mountain roads here are not easy to walk in winter. Look, something happened?" Although Liao Guohua complained, he arranged for several cars to look for them along the direction of Dian Village.

The two colleagues were very anxious, they kept calling Chen Zilan and the others, but the phone rang but no one answered, the two of them felt inexplicably uneasy.

"Do you think something will happen to them?" A colleague asked worriedly.

"Probably not, it should be that the phone is out of battery." Another colleague comforted him, but he couldn't believe the reason he gave.

Several cars pulled the alarm and searched along the road. At a corner, they found traces of sudden braking and obvious traces of overturned cars on the side of the road.

Everyone stopped and searched along the mountain.

Biting cold!

　What will happen to Chen Zilan?I will tell you tomorrow!Winter is coming, we need warmth, let the world be full of love, warm you, me and him!mwah!
