A different fairy road
Chapter 96
When Xun Changsheng heard this, his face turned red immediately. He hesitated for a long time and couldn't speak. He simply shook his sleeves, ignored Xingyuan, and walked towards the crowd in front.
The two of them were talking a little away from the team, so no one heard them. What's more, the people in front were also discussing whether to stay overnight or continue on their way.
However, it is said to be a discussion, but in fact it is Chen Jiutian who has made the decision. After all, he is stronger than everyone else and is the benefactor who saved their lives. Naturally, everyone takes him as the leader and listens to Chen Jiutian. The discussion is just thinking. Will we encounter poisonous insects like before in the future? After all, no one wants to encounter the soul-eating insect again. There are only a few people in our group, and they are not enough to fill their teeth.
"There is a village ahead. Let’s stay overnight tonight. Get up early tomorrow and start the journey. What do you think?"Chen Jiutian looked at the thin wisp of smoke and looked at the crowd and asked
"Then let Brother Chen arrange it"
"I have no opinion"
"I also listen to Brother Chen."
Everyone can say that they just escaped death, so it would be great to rest. This is also a decision that Chen Jiutian has considered. After all, they have just experienced life and death, and their strength may not be fully utilized. If they are on their way now, if they encounter something What, I'm afraid it will hold him back.
So, everyone walked forward for a while, and finally came to the location of the wisp of smoke.
This place was indeed a village, but it was overgrown with weeds. If there was no open space, there would be The smoke guides me, I’m afraid I won’t be able to find the way
"Huh? Strange, why is it so desolate?"Xun Changsheng and Xingyuan walked at the end of the team. Looking at the scene in front of him, Xun Changsheng's eyes were full of doubts. This was not the same as what he remembered.
"What did you say?"Xun Changsheng's voice was so low that only he could hear it. If Xingyuan hadn't had good ears, he would have thought it was a mosquito.
"ah? It's okay, let's go in."
_ Having been here before, it is really strange that it is so desolate now.
With doubts, everyone walked into the village. As soon as they entered, they found collapsed and abandoned houses on both sides of the road. Along the way, there were actually more than ten houses. Look at this The village must have been abandoned for a long time.
After a while, everyone came to the center of the village, near where the smoke was rising.
After all, this place was under the jurisdiction of Huoyun Palace. It was so desolate now. As a disciple of Huoyun Palace, Chen Jiutian and Yan Yun naturally wanted to ask for the reason, but Xun Changsheng was even more eager than these two Fire Cloud Palace disciples. When they got close to this place, he had already gone to the house.
"tuk tuk tuk——"
"anyone there?"
No answer.
Knock again.
"Excuse me, is anyone there?"
There was still no response.
Xun Changsheng frowned and increased the strength of his hands, causing a few more pieces of wood to fall off the already shabby wooden door.
"Aunt Wang, open the door. I am Ergou."
Xun Changsheng spoke in a hurry, not caring that the people behind him looked strange after hearing his"two dogs".
After a long time, there was a slight sound of footsteps inside the wooden door.
"Come, come, who is it?"
"squeak——"
The person who opened the door was a short, fat old woman with gray and sparse hair and a wrinkled face.
"Aunt Wang, it’s me, Ergou. I used firecrackers to blow up your manhole before."
When Xun Changsheng saw this man, the stone hanging in his heart finally dropped, and he tried his best to keep a playful and smiling face.
"Ergou? Ergou...oh, it's Ergou."
Aunt Wang thought for a long time, and then she found the owner of this name from her memory. She reached out and touched Xun Changsheng's face, and while touching it, she said:"Oh, isn't this Ergou? It’s been so long since I last saw you. Have you grown up a lot? Oops, this face is much prettier than before, with thin skin and tender flesh. Oops, I can’t see the swarthy appearance before."
The corners of Xun Changsheng's mouth twitched slightly, feeling helpless. He didn't need to turn around to know that these people behind him must be suppressing laughter.
"Huh? This is behind you……"After touching for a long time, Aunt Wang finally noticed behind Xun Changsheng. Looking at the people behind Xun Changsheng who seemed to be wearing the same but different clothes, she was confused for a long time before continuing:"This is your fellow disciple, right? Come in quickly. Sit down, come in and sit down."
After saying that, she turned around and shouted into the house:"Old man, Ergou is back, let's cook two more dishes."
Hearing Aunt Wang's barking of Ergou and Ergou again, Xun Changsheng was helpless, turned around and greeted everyone, and then followed Aunt Wang in.
Inside the house are some tattered mud walls with pits and pits, with a few wooden sticks nailed to them and ropes tied to them, which are used to hang tools.
The house is not big and can only accommodate six or seven people at most. When Chen Jiutian, Yan Yun and Xun Changsheng went in, it seemed a bit crowded.
There were a few old wooden benches, a few baskets and a wooden table in the house, but nothing else.
After entering the house, Xun Changsheng followed Aunt Wang into the kitchen. Most of the kitchens in this kind of mud house are in the hall. They are small and airtight. Xingyuan and others were sitting outside. There was nothing to say between them. Close your eyes and rest your mind.
About a tea time later, Xun Changsheng finally came out. His face was so heavy that he could drip water. Although he was not very familiar with it, this was the first time Xing Yuan saw Xun Changsheng's expression. It seemed that he had endless anger in his heart. Depressed.
Just when I was about to ask him what was going on, I saw Aunt Wang and a stooped old man with a white beard walking out. They must be Aunt Wang's wife. They were carrying a large pot of vegetables in their hands, which was still steaming, and then they Walking into the kitchen, a small plate of fried wild vegetables was brought out. It could be seen that if Xun Changsheng and others had not arrived, this plate of fried wild vegetables would have been their dinner.
"Come, come, come, have a meal, are you tired from the journey? Come and have a meal, these are the only dishes at my house, I hope you don’t dislike them."
When Chen Jiutian and others saw this, they didn't say anything. They just thanked them, took bowls and chopsticks and started eating. This surprised Xingyuan. She thought that these disciples from the sect would not be used to eating this. Even scolding him, it seems that this cultivator also retains his humanity.
After eating, Xun Changsheng took the initiative to wash the dishes, while Uncle Wang sat in the room and smoked dry cigarettes. The smell was really not good. It smells good, so Xingyuan comes closer to the door.
"Uncle, I wonder what happened in this village? Why have there been so few people? It doesn’t seem like this was the case before, right?"
As a disciple of Huoyun Palace, Chen Jiutian needs to find out what happened in this village under the sect's jurisdiction.
The old man took a few puffs and looked at the eaves with his cloudy eyes. After thinking for a moment, he said:"Oh, What else could it be? This village is haunted."
