Volume 1 The Land of the Dead Chapter 150 The Old Village Chief

"Who are you?"

Jimmy's cousin, who was originally called a sweet potato, didn't notice Roger and Linda, just as they were villagers passing by, after all, although this place is far away from the village, there are occasionally villagers who go to the mountains to hunt.

It was only when Jimmy explained to Roger that Sweet Potato noticed the two strangers.

"They...... I'm from the city, and I'm looking for help with something. ”

Jimmy's tone was vague, he didn't want to explain too much, but Sweet Potato looked wary, unlike Jimmy, who had lived alone for a long time, he was wary of these unfamiliar faces.

"Little brother, we don't have any ill intentions, you see," said Roger, pointing to Linda beside him, past Jimmy, "Our brother and sister are just craftsmen who walk the streets, and this time we came to your village of Utop, just a coincidence. ”

"Craftsman?"

The sweet potato circled around Roger, who had never seen clothes before.

In order to prevent Sweet Potato from seeing something, Jimmy grabbed his cousin and asked, "Don't talk about this, is the village chief here?"

Sweet potato scratched his head and said, "The village chief was not feeling well a few days ago, but he has been staying at home recently, you can find him directly at the village chief's house - what are you looking for the village chief?"

"It's not like an outsider has come to the village, although there is no precedent, but I still have to take it to meet him. ”

Jimmy shook his hand and walked into the village with Roger and Linda, and behind him, Sweet Potato shouted from afar that he would not forget to go to his house for dinner in the evening.

"I thought you were the only one left in the house. ”

"I also have Uncle and Aunt Hammer at home, who run a blacksmith shop in the village, but this is my home after all, so I have always lived in the mountains. ”

Intermittent smoke and wooden house spires are visible, and fields with purple vegetables grow along both sides of the path to the village, with only small amounts of buckwheat-like crops planted at intervals, as if the people here make the vegetables their staple food.

Passing by the purple plant's field, Roger tore off a leaf and tasted it, and said something funny and said no more.

Realizing that he had been taken to the Alien Plane by Roger, Linda saw that the small village was surrounded by a low wooden fence only half a man high, and it was doubtful how much protection this broken and low wooden fence would have, as if its purpose was only to demarcate the boundaries of the village, not to defend against the beasts of the woods.

Of course, this may be the reason why all beasts live in Langya Mountain, but such a simple one is very rare after all.

In the village, you can see the stone and wood houses scattered together, and the materials used depend on the mood of the owner, it is worth noting that no matter what material is made, the eaves of each house have a groove, facing a large water tank, I don't know what the function is.

The roads are narrow and potholed, winding and winding, and it seems that the convenience of transportation has not been considered in the slightest.

At this time, it was the time for the local people to cook on the fire, most of the people were at home, and only three or five men who had nothing to do could be seen hanging around on the streets. When they saw the stranger appear, they immediately surrounded them curiously, pointing at Hao Ren and his party from a distance, which was rude.

Linda was clearly not used to the situation, but Roger even greeted them.

Listening to Jimmy's introduction of some interesting legends, everyone came to the largest cylindrical house in the center of the village, an old man with a white beard was standing at the door, and an old man with a slightly neat dress and a smile on his face came over with a cane. 58 reading

He had just heard that Jimmy was leading two strangers to come, and was waiting at the door early.

Roger immediately drew a clear line between this old man and the angry pleading, this old man's voice is loud and the young man is afraid that he will not dare to compare, Roger is more than ten meters away and feels a little itchy in his ears.

"Village Chief," Jimmy said with a rare shyness, "I met them on the Wolf's Tooth Mountain, and they got lost on the mountain. ”

"Haha, it doesn't matter, although our village is isolated, hospitality has always been our tradition. "

Naturally, Roger stepped forward and told him that he was lost, and the old village chief didn't seem to suspect it.

"There's cooking at home," he beckoned to Roger and the others, "It's all guests, come in and come in, and eat together."

The old village chief just warmly beckoned everyone into the house, and did not give Roger a chance to be polite at all, just in time for the meal, and after a while, a hot special meal was placed in front of everyone.

Got up early and ate some greasy barbecue, Linda really couldn't eat it, and took small bites of tearing special hard dough cakes baked with vegetables and flour, on the other hand, Roger, eating like a vicious dog grabbing food.

The old village chief looked at the wolf-gobbling Roger kindly, and it was a pleasure for his food to be welcomed.

Roger's mouth was stuffed with food and his speech was slurred.

After swallowing the bread with water, Roger finally wiped the corners of his mouth and thanked the old village chief: "Thank you for your hospitality, you can't eat such a delicious meal in the city." ”

"Is it true that the situation in the city has deteriorated like this?"

The old village chief muttered softly in an almost inaudible voice, and Jimmy, who had sharp ears, asked, "Village chief, did you just say something?"

"It's nothing, it's nothing, I mean this little brother eats slowly, there's a lot of food. ”

"No need, the village chief is too polite. ”

With that, Roger broke open another steaming sheet of dough, revealing a vegetable sandwich mixed in the flour, "I've never eaten this purple vegetable anywhere else, it's your specialty here?"

"Eat more if it's delicious. The village chief snorted and didn't answer Roger's question directly.

The old village chief is not wrong to be hospitable, but whenever Roger mentions some outside things, the old village chief will be vague, and the most common sentence he says is: "Ah, living in such a calm and peaceful place, why do you need to worry about the outside world?"

Even Jimmy saw the village chief's shirk, he didn't understand what was going on with the always enthusiastic old village chief today, he was about to ask, Roger secretly stopped him, and asked with a smile: "Thank you for your hospitality, but we are always outsiders, I don't know if there is any map that can get us out of here?"

The old village chief was stunned for a moment when he heard Roger's question, and then stroked his beard and recalled: "Yes, there is, but you ....... Forget it, you'll see me later. "

The village chief beckoned everyone to eat in the "living room" near the door, and now he went around the back of the partition and pulled out a sheepskin that looked very old from the place where it was used as a living room, and drew a rough map of the surrounding area of Uto's village.

It's just that why does Roger feel that this map is a little strange?
