Chapter 1732 Village Ruins
It is difficult to say how many people were behind this incident. Yang Yiyi was just dragged into it and happened to get the key props.

But Li Chengxi was not in a hurry.

As I said, Li Chengxi asked Yang Yiyi to find the treasure just to distract her attention, so as to prevent this girl from running to the battlefield in a fit of impulsiveness.

Li Chengxi doesn't care whether he can get the treasure, how many things happen behind it, or who will have the last laugh in the end.

What matters is the process, not the result.

In fact, only Yang Yiyi thought that I must go and see.

For Ning Xianer and Shen Qingluo, no matter what Shen Qingshuang is looking for, it is not a bad thing to let her get it.

After all, Shen Qingluo knew Shen Qingshuang very well and knew that she was not the kind of person who would obediently submit to others. No matter what Shen Qingshuang was looking for, her top priority would definitely be to deal with the leader of Fengyun Village and get rid of his control over her.

When the time comes, Shen Qingluo will find it quite enjoyable to see them fighting each other.

Of course, the prerequisite is that we must figure out what Shen Qingshuang is looking for, and have a general idea in our mind so that we can be prepared.

The prerequisite for sitting on the mountain and watching tigers fight is that you have to be able to deal with the surviving tiger, otherwise it will be just a snack.

As for Qin Yan and the two monsters, they simply came to help and didn't think much about it at all.

Anyway, we're in, so where should we go next?
As mentioned before, Erlang Mountain is a crescent-shaped basin. The place where everyone came in is actually the weakest part of the crescent, and the area is really not small.

Looking up, even though there was a bright moon in the sky, it was still difficult to see the mountains at the end of the field of vision, and even the snowfields farther away were hidden in darkness.

Occasionally, you can see some withered and yellow vegetation exposed above the snow. There are high mountains on both sides and there is no road to go.

If you want to move forward, you must have a direction. If you walk around aimlessly, you don't know what you will encounter.

"Would you like to follow these footprints?"

Qin Yan suggested:
"At least judging from the footprints nearby, the action was quite decisive. The person who came in first seemed to know the direction."

Most people will hesitate for a while when trying to find their way in an unfamiliar environment, unless they have something to locate their position, or simply know which way to go, then they will be so decisive.

That's true, but there's also the possibility of a direct collision with the other party.

Judging from the traces of their lightness skills left behind, this group of people are a group of experts. If a real fight breaks out, although there is nothing to be afraid of, it will still be difficult to win, even with Ning Xianer present.

After all, Ning Xian'er hadn't broken through the last level yet, and was very close to it. She was still not an enemy of thousands of people who couldn't be killed by the sheer number of people.

Qin Yan and the two monsters are likely to die suddenly in the process.

After discussing it, everyone decided to follow the footprints, but not too far away, so as to maintain the advantage that the other party was unaware that someone else had come in.

Erlang Mountain is crescent-shaped, and the valley is naturally round.

This is just a rough terrain. From a human perspective, the first thing that blocks your view is a vast expanse of undulating snowfield.

It was the middle of the night and I didn't turn on the flashlight. I just followed the footprints by moonlight, and it was literally one step deep and one step shallow.

People know almost nothing about this place. They only know the place name "Bo Yun Cave". It's daunting to think about finding a cave in the Erlang Mountain Range.

So following the footprints at the beginning is indeed a good idea, which is better than wandering around everywhere.

About 20 minutes after getting back on the road, Qin Yan, who was leading the way and following the footprints, suddenly stopped and pointed to the left and said:

"There seems to be something over there, like a house or something." Everyone stopped where they were and looked towards the place Qin Yan mentioned.

Yang Yiyi is not good at night activities, but Ning Xianer, who was raised with all kinds of elixirs since childhood, looked at her and said:
"It looks like a ruin. No one should have lived there for a long time."

The vixen following behind interrupted:
"When Father Eagle brought me to the North, I saw it from the top of Erlang Mountain. It was an abandoned village. I asked Father Eagle about it at the time, and he said it had been in ruins for as long as he could remember."

Old Man Eagle’s age should not be as old as a thousand years, but he must be at least several hundred years old. The village must have been built a long, long time ago.

"Um... go take a look?"

Yang Yiyi said:

"Didn't the wolf demon mention some ruins before?"

Indeed, in what Father Eagle told Shen Qingluo, he mentioned Erlang Mountain, Boyun Cave, ruins and so on.

Since the footprints were there and wouldn't run away, everyone turned around and headed towards the ruins.

Just now, there was a vague shadow in the distance, which looked like the outline of a house. When I got closer, I saw that it was indeed a ruin.

The thatch and adobe on the roof had almost all fallen off, probably collapsed by the snowstorm, leaving only a few beams and supports. Yang Yiyi walked past the house and looked inside, and could still see the remnants of the kang, stove and other things inside.

Li Chengxi said to them at this time:
"If there were no wild beasts or anything like that that destroyed any traces, at least the people here should have evacuated in an orderly manner."

"why?"

"No clothes, daily utensils or anything like that were found in the house."

Clothes made of organic materials will of course decompose over time, but they will also leave fragments or something. However, daily utensils, such as pots, pans, and the like, can be preserved for a very long time.

The houses have not completely collapsed yet, and it won’t be long enough for the inorganic tools to disappear.

It was accidental that one or two houses were like this, but most of the houses along the way were like this. That means the people living here must have evacuated in an orderly manner. It might have been due to some natural or man-made disaster, and it was not a sudden disaster like an earthquake, otherwise people would still be able to find bones here.

Judging from its size, this place was probably once a small town with an estimated population of tens of thousands. But something happened later and everyone evacuated.

And this is the strange thing. This kind of large-scale evacuation event will definitely leave some record in history. Even if there is no written record, there will be some legends.

For example, there is the famous underwater city of Fuxian Lake in our country. There are similar rhymes circulating in the villages and towns around Fuxian Lake, saying that there is a king underwater.

That is the clue left in history by the people who had to evacuate their hometown when Fuxian Lake was formed.

But there is no similar rumor nearby. The only rumor is that Erlang Shen cannot be approached.

Watching Yang Yiyi and the others exploring the ruined town, Li Chengxi suddenly remembered something.

Could the bandits who abducted nearby villagers and took them into the fog have anything to do with this town?

There is no doubt that the fog at the door is definitely a spell effect, and when Li Chengxi guided Yang Yiyi and the others in, he also saw the broken iron chain, a man-made object.

So is it possible that this fog has no effect on the people who originally lived here, and only outsiders need to be chained in?

The bandits knew this, so they abducted people from nearby villages and towns and drove them in. Those who met the criteria would naturally come out.

At that time, the bandits will be able to use this person to pass through the fog at the door.
