Chapter 1484: Anchor?
The wells in the village all dried up for unknown reasons.
The village also has no running water.
Could it be that the monsters knew they would wash away the smell, so they acted in advance.
Or maybe it's just the opposite.
It was because they had escaped the monster's tracking in this way that the monster allowed the water source to dry up and completely cut off their path.
As soon as this idea came out, several people suddenly realized it.
"You mean, this mountain village is actually a story that continues after we left the ancient tomb!" Liu Jingfeng patted his head.
After sorting it out according to this idea, everything finally comes into focus.
What the monster is looking for is actually them.
And this mountain village is isolated from the world for unknown reasons.
"As long as we ask what era the girl from before came from, all problems will be solved." Lin Ran said firmly.
Because he also noticed one thing, that is, the girl's dress just now was completely different from the trend of this era.
But he didn't find anything unusual because Lin Ran had experienced that era.
That was around 2008, an era famous for non-mainstream culture, when this style of clothes and hairstyles was very popular.
"You go find water first, any water will do." Lin Ran gave the order to everyone. There is no difference between them hiding here and waiting to die.
Hiding in a dream was already terrifying, but now it has become a reality.
Without some special means, I might not even know how they died.
Lin Ran knocked on the door of the girl's room at this time.
Hearing someone knocking on the door, the girl made an extremely reluctant voice: "Then you hide, don't you hear?"
She had actually been listening to them behind the door.
She had a lot of confusion about Lin Ran's words.
What does it mean which era she comes from? Is it possible that these people are still time travellers?
"Girl, I have something to ask you."
"Say, leave as soon as you're done." The girl said dissatisfied.
"When did you come here?" Lin Ran asked directly.
"Are you kidding me? It's too old-fashioned to talk to girls in this way." She did not answer Lin Ran's question, but her answer left Lin Ran speechless.
Judging from his tone, it does seem to be a relatively modern tone.
"We came here in 1983." Lin Ran said his answer to himself.
There was a moment of silence behind the door.
Then, she made a dismissive sound: "Do you think I will believe it?"
"Since you are a lover of ancient civilizations, you should also know something about history. Look at the clothes we wear, don't you think they are different from your time?"
Thinking back to the first time I saw them, I really thought these guys were dressed strangely.
It gave her a vague feeling that these people came from remote rural areas.
However, when she entered this mountain village, she also felt that the style here was incompatible with the outside.
It's not that she hasn't been to other villages, but most villages can't be so poor.
What's even more strange is that no one can be seen in this village.
It's like an abandoned mountain village.
She had read in a book that a serious landslide seemed to have occurred in this mountain, causing serious casualties, and all the villagers were later relocated.
It was originally planned to transform this place into a large reservoir, but the plan was shelved for unknown reasons.
She opened the door doubtfully and looked at Lin Ran again: "Do you have any evidence?"
Lin Ran shook his head. He really had no way to prove that he lived in the 80s, except for the clothes he was wearing, but the clothes could be purchased online.
And he cannot reveal that he knows what will happen in the future. Any butterfly effect may change the trajectory of history and make everything out of control.
But he didn't expect the girl to believe him in the end.
"What do you want from me? Just tell me." The girl stared at Lin Ran, who felt strange about the boy in front of him.
Since he is from the 80s, are people of that era so calm about time travel?
While others were looking for water, Lin Ran briefly explained the cause and effect of the incident to the girl.
They came to do archaeology in this era, but due to some of their operations, the monsters in the ancient tomb were released.
What was even more unexpected was that the mountain village turned into a ghost village ten years later.
I'm afraid that all the people in this village have become monsters' meals.
The girl also told Lin Ran what happened to her.
"The expedition team heard that there was an ancient tomb here, so we wanted to come and explore it. It was fine at first, but we thought we had discovered an abandoned village. We were very excited and wanted to start a live broadcast." The girl said with some annoyance, but after finishing Finally, I could clearly feel her body shaking.
"Live broadcast?" Lin Ran was particularly surprised. He thought it was at most 2008.But if there is a live broadcast, it should be at least 25 years later.
"Yeah, you don't understand this." The girl smiled, "By the way, my name is Qin Ming. If we can get out alive, I will make a video of what happened here. There will definitely be a lot of videos on the Internet. View count!”
"Are you a host or a lover of ancient civilization?" Lin Ran said.
"Did you only have the concept of anchor in your era?" Qin Ming raised her eyebrows and discovered the loophole in Lin Ran's words.
"Aren't those who do TV programs called anchors?" Lin Ran looked careless.
"Oh, that's right." Although Qin Ming felt that there were loopholes in Lin Ran's words, she couldn't fault it.
Just then, it became darker outside.
She said seriously: "I'm afraid it's not the time to chat now. In ten minutes at most, the monster will come to the village. If you want to survive, find a place to hide quickly."
"Have you always been hiding in this place?"
"What do you think?"
"But, didn't you say that you were trapped in the mountain village for half a month? What do you usually eat? And there is nothing smelling on you."
"I'll tell you if you survive."
"Okay, but I'm afraid I need your help if I want to survive." Lin Ran felt that this girl must know where the water is.
"Say it, but don't try to hide here with me. You smell so bad that the monster will find you in no time."
Sure enough, she also knew the monster's weakness.
"Okay, where is the nearest water?"
As long as they can find water, they have a way to become invisible from the monsters.
"Oh? So you know the shortcomings of this monster?" Qin Ming looked at the boy in front of him and became more curious about him.
The water in the village has indeed dried up, but there is still some left in the river outside the village.
It's just that it's far away, and I'm afraid there won't be enough time to go back and forth.
