Killing God Chapter 46: Into the woods
After Ling Ziling and Wuchen heard Xiaochen's greeting, they also got up and quickly followed Xiaochen.
Xiaochen was the first to come to the entrance of the village, the black fog in the sky disappeared, and the light spots also disappeared. Looking around, the village could see the outline of the village in the morning light, but like the daytime, the road in the village Not seeing a single figure, Xiao Chen leaned over to a window and looked in.
Seeing this, Xiao Chen was startled. On the bed in the room, lay a girl who was sleeping soundly with her arms and a snow-white thigh exposed.
Xiao Chen was surprised not because he saw the half-naked woman, but because the three of them didn't see anyone entering the village at all.
At this time, Ling Ziling and Wuchen also came to the village. Xiaochen turned around and walked to the window of another room to look in. Not surprisingly, there were still people sleeping soundly in the room. It is so.
Looking at Xiaochen's actions, Ling Ziling and Wuchen also learned to look, and what they saw was the same as what Xiaochen saw.
After a while, the three gathered at the entrance of the village.
"What's going on?" Ling Ziling spoke first.
"I don't know, I can be sure that no one was there during the day, and no one came back at night, but now, actually..." Ling Ziling didn't know the reason, and Wuchen naturally didn't know either.
"Could it be those blips?" Although Xiao Chen still didn't know why, he still had to bring it up.
"This is a genuine mortal village, and it becomes a spot of light. This is probably a bit far-fetched." What Xiaochen thought, Wuchen and Ling Ziling also thought of it, but this is almost impossible.
"Let's go first, and then ask someone to ask when it's dawn." Xiao Chen suggested.
“It can only be like this now.” Ling Ziling and Wuchen could only listen to Xiaochen temporarily when there was no other way.
"One step to live, one step to die." After Ling Ziling and Wuchen walked out of the village, Xiaochen heard Han's voice.
Hearing this sound, Xiao Chen was more shocked than seeing someone sleeping soundly in the deserted village, "Is that all true? You saved us?"
"Whether it's true or false, it's not aimed at you, don't ask more about the others." Han was actually threatened by the figure and didn't tell Xiao Chen the truth, presumably the figure said "he "It's extremely important to Han.
Xiaochen knew that Han didn't want to talk about it, so he had to suppress the doubts in his heart and stop entanglement, and followed Ling Ziling and the two to return to the bonfire that had not been completely extinguished, waiting for the dawn.
It is no longer necessary to observe. Several people simply cross their knees and close their eyes to meditate. They spend every moment they can use to improve their cultivation. This is the most basic prerequisite for becoming a strong person. matter.
When I was cultivating, time seemed to pass quickly. When a few people opened their eyes, the sun had already climbed high.
Xiaochen stood up, moved his body symbolically, and said, "Let's enter the village."
Ling Ziling and Wuchen had no objection, but they ignored Xiaochen and walked to the village with Xiaochen.
I could have ignored it. I left yesterday, but Xiaochen chose to take care of it. Wuchen couldn't figure out why Xiaochen had to do it. Only Ling Ziling could probably guess some of the reasons why Xiaochen did it. I'm afraid it's just because I want to do it, and the reason why I can stay may be that I should do it together with Xiaochen.
At the speed of the three of them, they arrived at the entrance of the village after a while. They found that the village was originally empty and silent. Occasionally villagers passed by on the road, and they could hear bursts of hearty laughter and curses from time to time. Voice.
“As soon as we entered, we said we were from the martial arts. We came here only after we came out looking for medicinal herbs, and don’t mention the village.” Ling Ziling didn’t know how to speak, and Wuchen had never been disdainful of being with mortals, but Xiao Chen is very familiar with the road. After explaining, he took the lead into the village.
No matter what, the first person Xiaochen met was the half-naked girl he saw last night, with Ling Ziling and Wuchen behind him, Xiaochen had to bite the bullet and asked: "Miss, excuse me, In Xia Aliu, can you tell me if there are hundred-year-old ginseng in this forest?" After speaking, Xiao Chen sincerely looked at the girl who was pouring vegetables in her own garden.
"Every dog knows that ginseng grows on the mountain." Although Ni Cangtian has a tattoo, it does not affect his conversation with Xiaochen. When I heard that Xiaochen asked if there was ginseng in the forest, Ni Cangtian almost slapped it over with a slap. Xiao Chen.
The girl raised her head when she heard the words, looked at a young man, looked at herself with a bright bald head, lowered her head blushing for a while, put down the scoop in her hand, and whispered: "I don't know, wait, I'll ask Ask my dad."
"I really don't know what the **** is this." If Defying Heaven is not tattooed at this moment, the expression must be wonderful.
How dare Xiaochen let her really ask his father, and quickly said: "Then don't bother, the three of us have been wandering in the woods for several days, and we haven't had a good meal, you Can you help us get something delicious, promise, give you the money." With that, Xiao Chen took out a large silver ingot.
"Money? It's the kind of stone that can be exchanged outside?" The girl seemed to be unsure of what money was, with a look of doubt on her face, and then continued. "I can't be the master of this either, I'll go and ask my father." After speaking, he was about to go into the house.
"Bring this to your father." Xiao Chen smiled and threw the silver ingot in his hand to the girl.
Not long after, the girl walked out of the house with a middle-aged man. The man held the silver ingot sent by Xiaochen. When he came to Xiaochen, he reached out and handed the silver to Xiaochen. : "This young man, I don't need money, I just have a meal. Just help me turn over the small piece of land at the back of the house." But Xiao Chen saw all the desire in his eyes.
Hey hey with a smile, Xiao Chen held the silver in the hands of the man and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I'll take the money, and I'll help you finish it."
The middle-aged man looked at Xiao Chen with a look of surprise. He didn't say a word, but the girl beside him said cheerfully, "That's great, I'll pick mushrooms for you later."
The middle-aged man smiled awkwardly, patted his daughter's head, and let Xiaochen and his party return home, but Xiaochen smiled and followed in the direction where the girl left, Ling Ziling didn't respond much, just followed the man Walking into the house, only Wuchen looked at Xiaochen's back with a ghostly look. At this moment, he felt a little uncomfortable. He had never seen such a monk before, so he could bend his knees and call a mortal uncle, obviously it was help People, he also seriously asked, not to say see, he had not even heard of it before.
The middle-aged man said that his surname was Zhang and his name was Dashu, and then he greeted Xiaochen and the three of them to sit down, took out a backpack, and told his daughter to go to the forest to pick some mushrooms. Xiaochen ignored Ling Ziling's eyes and volunteered to say Wanting to accompany the girl, the girl blushed and lowered her head silently, Xiao Chen naturally thought that the other party had acquiesced, so he carried the bag on his back and entered the grove with the girl.
“He’s like this, is it really okay?” After Xiaochen and the girl left, Zhang Dashu also left, leaving Ling Ziling and Wuchen to sit in the house. At this time, Wuchen asked.
"What do you mean?" Ling Ziling asked rhetorically.
"So close to mortals." Wuchen said.
"What does that have to do with that?" Ling Ziling said indifferently.
"If this goes on, I'm afraid that he will forget the iron rules of the realm of self-cultivation, and I'm afraid it will not be good at that time." Wuchen's words seem to be thinking of Xiaochen, but in fact he is also trying to test Xiaochen's presence in Xuanqing Mountain. What is his status, if his status is extremely high, even if something goes wrong, an elder will definitely come forward to protect him.
"I'm afraid he never cared about it." Ling Ziling doesn't know the mystery of Wuchen's words, but she can be said to be the person who knows Xiaochen the most apart from Ni Cangtian's brothers and sisters and the sick old man. This is also in line with Xiao Chen. What Chen thought was naturally the truth, which also made Wuchen unable to find any useful information.
"Your name is Aliu, you...you..." Xiaochen walked beside the girl, the girl opened her mouth to ask something, but she didn't seem to think it was right, so she didn't ask.
"Ask me where my hair is?" Xiao Chen smiled, seeing the girl looking at her bald head but not speaking, she naturally guessed what the other party wanted to ask.
"Hmm." The girl lowered her head and whispered.
"It was burned by fire." Xiao Chen's words were not fictitious.
"Bragging." The girl raised her head and looked at Xiao Chen. The anger in her eyes revealed no doubt, she obviously thought that Xiao Chen had lied to her.
"I'm a dignified man, can I lie to you?" Xiao Chen was helpless, everyone believed this lie, but when he told the truth, no one believed it.
"Then why don't you have any scars on your face? How old are you?" Compared with the girl just now, she was much less shy, and her questions also increased.
"Because only my hair is on fire, brother, I'm already eighteen years old." Xiao Chen spread his hands out and said with a grin.
"Well, that's only two years older than me." The girl smiled lightly.
Xiaochen found that the plainly dressed girl in front of her was not very beautiful, even worse than Ling Ziling, but she had a pure and flawless temperament.
"Arrived, this is the woods, there are many mushrooms here, remember not to pick colored ones, they are poisonous and can't be eaten." From the beginning of not saying a word, to chatting and laughing all the time, the girl reminded Xiaochen that he had arrived. destination.
"Start stepping on the mushrooms!" Xiaochen shouted, put down the back basket and walked in one direction. In the next time, Xiaochen trampled all the brightly colored mushrooms with his feet.
"Okay, little sister, pick it from here, make sure there isn't a single poisonous mushroom." Xiao Chen returned to the boy, patted his chest and said.
"Don't call me little sister, my name is Zhang Xiaomei." The girl was bending over to pick mushrooms when she suddenly heard Xiaochen speak, she straightened up and said.
"Xiaomei, hehehe..." Xiaochen watched Zhang Xiaomei walk in the direction he pointed, and smiled while standing there.
"By the way, what fun do you guys have this evening?" Xiao Chen wasn't greedy for "Xiaomei", so he followed Zhang Xiaomei out to pick mushrooms, and he never forgot about the business. asked.
"Night? I don't know. People in our village don't come out at night, and they all fall asleep as soon as it gets dark." Zhang Xiaomei bent down, but turned her head and said to Xiao Chen.
"Oh, we are in the city, and we go out to set off fireworks at night." Xiao Chen leaned against a big tree and said.
"What are fireworks?" Zhang Xiaomei apparently heard it for the first time.
"A very strange thing that flies into the sky at night, like a flower in the sky. By the way, have you seen or encountered any strange things in the village?" Xiao Chen answered the phone.
