Chapter 343: The Village Chief's Decision
Under the leadership of Gongsun Yan, a group of three people came to the door of the village chief's house.
Looking at the village chief's simple residence, Qin Xiusheng couldn't help frowning slightly. He originally thought that as the head of a village, his house would be better than the other villagers, if not luxurious. But what Qin Xiusheng didn't expect was that the village chief's home was almost the same as the surrounding villagers, and from the outside, it was impossible to tell that this was the village chief's home.
"Ziran, it seems that this village is really like a family, even the village chief's house is so ordinary. Qin Xiusheng couldn't help but speak.
Luo Ziran nodded, and a flash of surprise also flashed in his eyes.
"You wait here for a while, and I'll go in and talk to the village chief. Gongsun Yan told the two to wait at the door, and walked into the village chief's house alone.
Qin Xiusheng and Luo Ziran stood outside the door and waited, and the surrounding villagers found them and gathered over one after another.
A middle-aged man with a shotgun walked out of the crowd and stood in front of the two. He looked at the two of them carefully, and asked in a deep voice, "You don't look like you're from the village, are you, why are you here?"
Seeing this, Qin Xiusheng hurriedly explained, "We are passers-by who passed by here by chance, because we lost our luggage by some accident, and we had no choice but to come here to ask for help. ”
Hearing Qin Xiusheng's words, the middle-aged man couldn't help frowning slightly, "Outsiders are not welcome in this village, so you better leave quickly." If you want food and water, come to my house and I'll provide it for you. ”
Hearing his words, Qin Xiusheng couldn't help but glance at him more. Unlike the other villagers, he also did not welcome them into the village, but instead of rushing them away like the others, he offered to provide them with food and water.
"Old hunter, I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to do this, right?" The middle-aged man's words aroused the opposition of the other villagers, and one of them frowned and said, "Didn't the village chief clearly stipulate that contact with outsiders was not allowed? ”
The old hunter couldn't help frowning slightly, but he didn't flinch because of this, "Although they are outsiders, they don't look like bad people. In the face of people in need, they should have given help, and providing them with food and water should not be considered against the orders of the village chief, right?"
While the villagers were arguing, Gongsun Yan walked out of the village chief's house. Behind her was an elderly man, his beard was white, and he looked like a fairy at a glance.
"What are you arguing about here?" said the old man, though he was old. Although the crowd was arguing loudly, his voice completely drowned out the voices of others.
"The village chief. Seeing the old man come out, everyone closed their mouths and stood aside obediently.
Seeing that the villagers had stopped arguing, the village chief walked up to Qin Xiusheng, looked at him carefully, and then said, "Stretch out your hand." ”
Hearing the village chief's words, a trace of doubt flashed in Qin Xiusheng's eyes. He couldn't figure out why the village chief wanted to see his hand for no reason, so he hesitated and could only reach out his hand in front of him according to his request.
The village chief stared at Qin Xiusheng's hand carefully for a while, and then asked in a deep voice, "You are a doctor, and you are also here for the matter of "Green Bag"?"
Hearing the village chief's words, Qin Xiusheng and Luo Ziran's faces changed at the same time. They didn't expect that the village chief would immediately know that he was a doctor by looking at Qin Xiusheng's hand, and guessed that they were here for the sake of "Green Bag".
Seeing this, Gongsun Yan on the side hurriedly opened his mouth to defend the two of them, "Village Chief, they saved me by accident, and they definitely won't have any other purpose." ”
Qin Xiusheng thought about it carefully, the purpose of him and Luo Ziran coming here was for the purpose of "Green Bag", if he denied it now, it would be impossible to borrow "Green Bag" in the future.
Gritting his teeth vigorously, Qin Xiusheng shook his head and said, "Xiao Yan, you don't have to explain it for us. The village chief is right, both of us are indeed doctors, and the purpose of coming here is indeed for "Green Sac". ”
Hearing Qin Xiusheng's words, the surrounding villagers all had angry expressions on their faces.
"Let them leave, don't let outsiders get their hands on "Green Sac"!"
Luo Ziran touched Qin Xiusheng with his elbow, frowned and said, "Brother Qin, why do you want to admit it, how will it end now?"
Qin Xiusheng sighed and replied, "There's no way, the matter has come to this point, and I don't want to continue to hide it." ”
"Quiet!" Hearing the shouts of the villagers, the village chief clapped his hands vigorously and stopped them, "Don't make any noise, leave this matter to me." ”
Walking to Qin Xiusheng's side, the village chief said in a deep voice, "No matter what, it's a fact that you saved Xiaoyan. To me, everyone in the village is like my relatives, and it stands to reason that you saved my relatives even if you handed over the "Green Bag" to you. ”
Hearing the village chief's words, Qin Xiusheng and Luo Ziran's eyes lit up at the same time. If the village chief is willing to lend them the "Green Bag", there is no better news for them.
"But. The village chief's words changed, "The "Green Bag" is a sacred object that our Gongsun clan has guarded for generations, and in order to prevent it from falling into the hands of people with evil intentions, our Gongsun clan can be said to have gone through hardships. Originally, the Gongsun clan was prosperous, but for the sake of this book, there is only such a small village left. ”
Hearing the village chief's words, Qin Xiusheng sighed helplessly. He had already thought before he came here that it would be very difficult to borrow the "Green Bag". The Gongsun family even chose to live in seclusion for generations for the sake of "Green Bag", which can imagine the importance of "Green Bag" to them.
"You saved Xiaoyan, although I can't hand over the "Green Bag" to you, but we can give you as much food and water as you want. As he spoke, the village chief glanced at the surrounding villagers and asked them not to interject, "If you want, you can also stay in the village, but I hope you don't take care of the matter of "Green Bag" again, otherwise I can only ask you to leave." ”
Qin Xiusheng and Luo Ziran exchanged glances, nodded and agreed. Although the village chief did not agree to take out the "Green Bag", at least let them live in the village. As long as you can stay, you can slowly find a way to do things in "Green Bag".
"Brother Qin, Brother Luo, you can live in our house. Hearing the village chief say that the two of them could stay, a smile appeared on Gongsun Yan's face.
