Since they came in, the people here had been busy with their own things.
Instead of saying that they were not curious about the outside world, it would be more accurate to say that they were like a group of programmed robots who would only carry out the instructions.
Of course, Lin Mengya had observed that they were definitely not being controlled by someone to do this.
Apart from that, there was only one possibility.
For a long time in the past, they had been doing something mechanically and singularly.
This seemingly monotonous and boring action was not difficult, but it was the easiest to form a habit to numb people's brains.
If they would fall into a deep sleep every time the peddler came, then the purpose of the peddler should be to confuse their memories with hypnosis.
For more than 20 years, they had not been discovered, and even Aunt Liu's memory of her daughter had become blurred, but they still did not suspect anything.
In that case, in the past days, Uncle Liu and the others should have been living an "ordinary life" every day, and there were almost no accidents.
As soon as they opened their eyes, the memories in their minds were already muddled, but no one suspected anything. That meant that the situation when they opened their eyes every day was exactly the same.
In other words, it was very likely that they would automatically wake up the next day.
What happened the night before might be regarded as a dream, and it might also be interfered and erased by someone.
But no one would think that anything was wrong.
She didn't dare to be too sure about this.
After thinking for a while, she asked Ada and the others to bring over the people of the Poison Sect who were left behind.
There must be a way if everyone brainstormed together.
Soon, Baili Rui and his uncle rushed to her side.
After the two of them carefully examined their little disciple, they became curious about the situation in front of them.
"Girl, do you mean that the entire village has been kept here for more than 20 years?"
Wu Jing was extremely surprised.
There were all kinds of strange things in the world.
But such a situation was not common.
After all, people were living things. How could they only live in the same place for more than 20 years?
Even cattle and sheep in captivity had to be let out for a walk occasionally, right?
But Baili Rui's eyes were filled with some doubts.
"Teacher, did you think of something?"
Lin Mengya asked.
The latter looked at her and slowly said, "I once read a similar story in a book. It was rumored that there was a mountain of immortals. Anyone who entered it by mistake would be unable to come out. There were bamboo houses and fields in the celestial mountain. It was completely self-sufficient and did not need to leave the mountain. Over time, these people who had mistakenly entered the Immortal Mountain lived peacefully and lost all contact with the outside world. Just like that, an unknown amount of time passed. One day, someone mistakenly entered, and because of a coincidence, he was able to leave the mountain. Only then did he record what he saw inside. "
She knew a similar story.
Wasn't Peach Blossom Spring the same?
The only difference was that the people of the Peach Blossom Spring knew their situation, while the people here were completely unaware.
At this moment, Wu Chong had also returned to their side after circling around.
"This place is really strange. It's actually the same as the Liuhe Town that we stayed in."
"It's not the same. This is also Willow River Town."
Immediately, both of them revealed expressions of disbelief.
It seemed that they had the same idea as her.
"How is this possible? Who would bother to build another Liuhe Town? "
Wu Jing looked as if he had seen something.
The expression of a ghost.
Lin Mengya nodded.
"Martial Uncle's question is right on point. I've talked to the people here. Their memories aren't complete. I don't think they know how long it's been since they left the town. Teacher, is there really a way in this world to let people live for so many years without anyone knowing? "
This stumped Teacher and Martial Uncle.
The two looked at each other and shook their heads.
This was especially so for Wu Bing, who kept saying that it was impossible.
"It would be easy to poison someone silly. But you also said that everyone here is clear-headed. It's almost impossible to control so many people without making any mistakes! "
Lin Mengya also knew that.
After a while, she finally spoke.
"What if all the unstable factors are removed?"
This …
The two of them instantly choked.
If that was the case, then this place was the most fake Liuhe Town.
Perhaps the people who stayed here were no longer natives of Liuhe Town.
Teacher couldn't help but show some caution on his face.
"Although there will be accidents, as long as one is ruthless enough, there won't be any accidents."
The other two also knew the hidden coldness in his words.
They looked at their surroundings. This place had never been a paradise.
The people of Poison Sect already knew what had happened.
Now, they either went to take care of their relatives and friends, or they formed a pair to investigate the situation in this town.
It was late at night again.
She told her teacher and Martial Uncle about her speculation.
The two of them also expressed their agreement. Therefore, they could only wait for dawn.
Teacher and Martial Uncle couldn't help but be attracted by the strangeness of this place. Like those people, they began to investigate the abnormalities here.
She also returned to Uncle Liu's courtyard.
Long Tianhao still hadn't left.
No matter what the people around him did, they seemed to be unable to affect him.
Those people automatically stayed away, no one dared to come close.
She walked over and gently tugged on his hand.
"Are you hungry?"
Long Tianhao was stunned, then a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
He touched her face with his fingers and held her little hand instead.
"I'll take you to find something to eat."
"Hey, I'm the one asking you."
"Yes, I'm hungry."
He turned back, still smiling.
But at this moment, her stomach let her down and began to rumble.
What a mess!
He brought her to the kitchen of a farmhouse in the town.
It was secluded and there were not many people around.
She watched as the man skillfully took out a few sweet potatoes and filled the stove that had not been extinguished. He also added a few pieces of firewood.
"You're amazing. You've even prepared this."
Although she said that she didn't care, her eyes were fixed on the stove.
Long Tianhao smiled and pulled her to a chair at the side.
"Wait a while more. I discovered this place on the spur of the moment. But the origin of this thing is very different. "
She immediately moved her eyes to look at him.
Long Tianhao pursed his lips. He was a little unhappy that his status was not as high as the sweet potatoes.
"My men went to Liuhe Town to find out information a long time ago, but in order not to alert the enemy, they were all in the periphery. According to the information they returned, Liuhe Town would be shrouded in a heavy fog every first and fifteenth day of the month. But the strange thing was that all the food in the fields around Liuhe Town would disappear after the fog. Moreover, there would only be visitors in Liuhe Town during these two days. That is to say, Liuhe Town has always existed in the lives of the people around it. Only we 'entered' it by mistake. "
She couldn't react to this news for a while.
"You mean that only we can see the abandoned Liuhe Town, and the villagers around here don't know about it?"
"You can say that. Liuhe Town's location is quite special. It's not on the main road. No matter which direction you go, there's no need to pass by here. I guessed that the reason why the villagers didn't notice was that there were always visitors here. However, they were just like them, blinded by the presence of the visitors. It's even possible that after entering by mistake, you can never return. "
The kitchen was a little too quiet.
She didn't even understand the situation at the moment.
"But didn't you say that this is a powerful trapping formation? And that sweet potato, how did you know it's here? "
"A hundred secrets will always be overlooked. On the fourteenth of last month, there was no heavy fog around here. Someone came here to send a cart of sweet potatoes to his relatives. At that time, he arrived at the abandoned town. Then, he suddenly disappeared. My people searched for a long time, but they couldn't find any trace of him. But the cart of sweet potatoes disappeared with him. "
At this point, Long Tianhao also glanced at the stove.
"At that time, the sweet potatoes were placed in this shop in the abandoned town. I didn't expect to see them here. "
Lin Mengya immediately searched all the places in the kitchen that could be used to store things.
Sure enough, she found a lot of sweet potatoes.
As far as she knew, most of the crops in this area were rice, and generally, no sweet potatoes were planted.
Moreover, how could there be such a coincidence in this world?
"You want to tell me that everything here is actually synchronized with that abandoned Liuhe Town. If there's something there, it must be here. Even if it's a cart of sweet potatoes? "
Long Tianhao's lips curled up, and there was some affection in his smile.
"Yes. Everything here is exactly the same as that place. So, I've been wondering if this place is the reflection of 'Liuhe Town', which is controlled by someone? "
Reflection?
Yes.
Wasn't the reflection in the water and in the mirror the same?
She thought about it, and only felt a little scared.
"There's nothing special about Liuhe Town. If anything, it's the things in the forest that are more rare. To be able to make such a realistic reflection, one must have extraordinary strength. Why did they have to attack Liuhe Town? "
This was the most critical and contradictory part.
He also didn't know about this.
As the match burned, bursts of sweet smell came into her nose.
Lin Mengya twitched her nose, and tried hard to smell the mouthwatering smell.
But soon, she regained her vigilance.
"Listen."
Long Tianhao also straightened his back because of her attitude.
It was not quiet around, but the "rustling" sound of the wind blowing the branches became clearer.
"What did you hear?"
He frowned slightly.
For some reason, after hearing this sound, he felt that his usually extremely calm mind was a little confused.
"Don't listen anymore!"
He warned in a low voice, and reached out to cover her little ears.
But Lin Mengya gently broke free from his grip.
