Chapter 260, Homecoming
"This gap doesn't look like it was vandalized...... It's more like a strange beast. ”
Hui Yue also followed Chu Ge to the gap in the wall.
"I know, so that's what I'm worried about!" Chu Ge said anxiously: "There are basically no high-level alien beasts near Kayang Village, if there are really high-level alien beasts attacking, the old people in the village have no ability to resist at all......"
Through the gap, Chu Ge and Hui Yue walked to the village.
I saw that the houses in the village were covered with snow, and it looked like no one had taken care of them for a long time.
Chu Ge said: "If there are people in the village, the snow on the houses will be cleared every day, and the current snow thickness is probably not cleared for a month." ”
Chu Ge shouted a few times around, but there was still no one in the village answering.
In fact, Kayang Village is not big, the two rows of houses add up to only about 30 households, most of them are old people left behind, the younger generation has gone out to wander, some do not want to come back, and some can never come back.
The grandparents of Dango said that Dango's parents were the ones who would never come back.
At this moment, Chu Ge heard a strange noise at the corner of the house, so he opened his True Eye and looked in that direction.
I saw the snow rise in a patch of snow under the house, and then open like a lid, and then an old woman with gray hair came out of it.
"Grandma Zhou!" This old woman Chu Ge knows and is a neighbor of Tuanzi's grandparents, and it is precisely like this that Chu Ge has been very familiar with Grandma Zhou in the past two years.
After seeing that it was Grandma Zhou, Chu Ge quickly stepped forward and said, "Grandma Zhou, what happened in the village? I've only been out for two months, why is there no one in the village?"
Seeing that there were living people, Huiyue also followed Chu Ge over.
Grandma Zhou patted the snow on her body and said, "It turned out to be Xiao Chu! There were man-eating beasts in the mountains, and the villagers all hid in the cellar for refuge." ”
Grandma Zhou was dressed plainly, although she was old, she was still quite healthy, and when she heard someone shouting outside, she opened the cellar where she was hiding and came out to check.
found that it was Chu Ge who went out to wander out two months ago in the village, although the appearance has changed a little, the voice is always right.
Grandma Zhou looked at Chu Ge, obviously she had only been out for two months, and she felt like a different person, if she hadn't been familiar with Chu Ge's brothers and sisters in the past two years, I am afraid she would not dare to recognize each other.
But seeing the girl next to Chu Ge who was wearing gorgeous golden tulle and fur, Grandma Zhou couldn't remember who it was for a while...... So he asked suspiciously: "Xiao Chu, it's only been two months, Zhao Xue has grown so smart, what about that stupid group, why did you two come back?" ”
The stupid group is the group, the original name of the group is Zhou Yubo, and everyone in Kayang Village is surnamed Zhou, except for Chu Ge and Zhaoxue.
Chu Ge knew that Grandma Zhou had recognized the wrong person, so he said softly: "Grandma Zhou, Tuanzi and Zhaoxue are studying in Misty City, and I will come back alone today." ”
"Oh oh oh!" Grandma Zhou suddenly realized: "Xiao Chu is back with his daughter-in-law? This is not the time to come back!"
Hearing this, Huiyue's eyes were so shocked that they were about to fall out, so she retorted: "Who will be the daughter-in-law of this adulterer!"
Chu Ge also coughed embarrassedly and said, "Grandma Zhou, this is not my daughter-in-law, her name is Huiyue, it doesn't matter who she is!"
Because what matters now is what Grandma Zhou just said.
Chu Ge continued: "Grandma Zhou, did you say that there are strange beasts in the village, but I remember that there are only steel-maned fighting pigs at the lower level around the village, and they don't seem to have the ability to break through the walls of the village......"
Although the steel-maned fighting pig is a strange beast, it will not take the initiative to attack humans, and it does not have much ability to break through the "wall" of the village.
At the mention of the strange beast, Grandma Zhou's eyes turned red, and then she said in a trembling voice: "A month ago, the villagers went out hunting, and we, the lonely old people, were waiting for them to come home at home. ”
But on the second day, I didn't wait for the villagers who went out to hunt, thinking that it might be normal to meet a big cargo, and it would take two or three days, but on the third day, Ah Si came back with a bite all over his body. ”
Speaking of this, Grandma Zhou's eyes couldn't stop crying.
"What did the fourth grandfather say?" Chu Ge asked anxiously, Ah Si is the fourth oldest in the village, he is an older elder, and he is also Grandma Zhou's wife, so Chu Ge calls him the fourth grandfather.
He said...... He said that there were high-level man-eating beasts outside the village, and told everyone to hide in the cellar. Then he swallowed......"
Grandma Zhou wiped away her tears and said, "Before we could arrange the funeral for him, the strange beast broke into the village and ate a lot of people...... That's a lot of people......"
"The corpses are ...... Didn't leave ......"
Chu Ge could imagine the tragic situation, but thinking that so many people in the village who were good to him had died at the mouth of the beast, Chu Ge was even more sad in his heart.
"Grandma Zhou, tell me where that strange beast is! I'll kill it! Take its head to pay tribute to the blind dates!" Chu Ge suppressed his anger and said, "Xiao Chu, I'm a magician now, I'm not afraid of those strange beasts!"
Grandma Zhou thought that Chu Ge was comforting her, so she responded: "We old bones, we will die when we die, Xiao Chu, you are still young, don't come back when you go out, and bring a girl with you when you come back, if something happens to you, we old bones will not be happy." ”
"Grandma Zhou, how many people are left in the village?" Chu Ge was most concerned about this issue, because just now now, he had only seen Grandma Zhou, and the others didn't know where it was.
"Plus I'm only thirteen left...... All in the cellar. Grandma Zhou pointed to the snow cave behind her.
"Thirteen people...... Chu Ge remembered that there were originally nearly seventy people in the village! There were only thirteen old and weak left, what was the difference between that and destroying the village.
"Grandma Zhou, let everyone come out! With me here, no strange beast dares to come again. "Trapped in the cellar for a month, you will be sick if you hold back, Chu Ge doesn't want everyone to hide anymore.
"This ......" Grandma Zhou didn't worry about Chu Ge at all, because she had only been out for two months, and becoming a magician was not just a joke.
Through the conversation between Chu Ge and Grandma Zhou, Huiyue roughly understood the situation in Kayang Village, so she helped: "Don't worry......! And me! I'm from the Shenghui Clan!"
Hui Yue said as she condensed the holy glow in her hand and showed it to Grandma Zhou.
Although Grandma Zhou had never seen the world, she had heard of the Shenghui Clan, and when she saw the warm golden light, she believed that Huiyue was a magician.
Then Grandma Zhou went to the cellar and asked everyone to come out.
Seeing the only thirteen lonely old people left, Chu Ge felt very uncomfortable, and a good Kayang village died like this.
But since he is back, he will definitely kill the man-eating beast! Give an explanation to the villagers, but before that, Chu Ge still has something to do.
With the loss of most of their labor, it is even more difficult for those who are hiding in the cellars to survive, and many of them are listless and weak when they come out, and all they need now is food.
And before Chu Ge returned to the village, he deliberately killed two steel-maned fighting pigs, just to give them to the villagers.
When the thirteen people gathered, Chu Ge's heart moved, and he placed two steel-maned fighting pigs with a body size on the snow, and then said to everyone: "Xiao Chu has been out for two months, but he didn't know that the village had changed so much, if he hadn't happened to return to the village, he wouldn't have known that there were strange beasts eating people, it was really painful." ”
"Now that Xiao Chu has come back as a magician, he will definitely kill the strange beast to avenge the dead villagers! These two steel-maned fighting pigs, let's divide them! From today onwards, there is no need to hide in the cellar. ”
Although Chu Ge said this, the remaining thirteen people still couldn't be happy, Chu Ge understood, after all, their wives and relatives all died under the mouth of the strange beast, and the only old and weak people left in the village couldn't be happy at all.
Seeing that the villagers were reluctant to do anything, Chu Ge urged the flame magic energy to quickly dismantle the two steel-maned fighting pigs and asked Grandma Zhou to distribute them to everyone.
After the villagers saw Chu Ge exert his magic power, they had confidence.
"Xiao Chu has really become a magician?"
"What a magician!"
"We're saved!"
Seeing that the villagers had confidence, Chu Ge's sinking heart was a little better, the blow was not terrible, but the terrible thing was that he couldn't stand up again.
After dividing all the fighting pork, Chu Ge took Huiyue and went to the original residence of Tuanzi's grandparents.
