Chapter Twenty-Eight: A Mountain Village at Night

For a hundred yuan, you can buy some spices, and you can buy two clothes.

Xu Ran added: "Eldest sister, don't worry, we are not bad people. Xu Ran pondered that the people in this village refused to open the door, whether they were afraid of meeting bad people, so he explained.

The woman inside the door heard the voices of Xu Ran and Baotong, breathed a sigh of relief, and was ** by the hundred yuan, so she opened the door.

Squeak ......

When the wooden door was opened, there was a strange noise, which sounded in the unusually quiet village.

made Xu Ran feel a little creepy.

Inside the door was a middle-aged woman, with a dark complexion, a little thin, wearing a bright red dress, looking at them vigilantly at the moment.

At Baotong's strong request, Shuangxi changed out of the khaki skirt, and now she is not so short of money, so she bought two sets of sportswear made of ordinary materials, one for her and Baotong, one for each person.

The gray tracksuit, worn on two fair-skinned people, looks youthful and neat.

The middle-aged woman swept around, saw that Baotong's face was delicate, and she was a little defensive in her heart, and when she saw Lin Qingyao's chubby body, a smile tugged at the corner of her mouth, as for Xu Ran...... A thin and tall young man, with an ordinary face, still in the crowd, the kind that could not be found, did not attract the attention of the middle-aged woman in red.

Xu was born by Lin Qingyao with too much "fireworks smell", the middle-aged woman chose it with confidence, and then said to a few people: "Come in." ”

A few people followed the middle-aged woman into the courtyard.

In the yard, it is also the vine of the banyan tree, it is a little inconvenient to walk, Lin Qingyao muttered in her heart, the banyan tree in this yard, why don't they get rid of it, this takes up more space, it is better to plant a few fruit trees.

However, this is a family affair, and Lin Qingyao, a foreign host, although she thinks it is strange, she will never ask.

The house is made of adobe bricks, the roof is made of reeds, and there are three rooms on the side, except for a small warehouse on the side where the cries of chickens and ducks are constantly heard.

It's rare to see such old-fashioned houses now, Lin Qingyao sighed in her heart, she didn't expect there to be such a poor and backward mountain village.

"The two rooms on the left are for you to live in." The middle-aged woman said.

Lin Qingyao and Baotong naturally want to live together, while Xu Ran lives in a room by himself, with a wooden bed built in the middle of the house and a thin quilt on it.

Baotong complained: "It's better to live in a tent by yourself." ”

Lin Qingyao said with a smile: "If you live, you can be content, let's come here hot, it's night when we get here, if you set up a tent now, maybe you're still busy." ”

"Bang bang." Lin Qingyao and Baotong were just about to lie down when there was a knock on the door.

hurriedly went to open the door, but saw the woman in red, carrying a basin, iron...... It's rusty and smells weird.

"After nine o'clock in the evening, don't go out, if it's night, it's in this basin." The woman commanded.

Without waiting for Lin Qingyao and the others to answer, the woman walked out, and then went to Xu Ran's house.

The sound insulation of the room was not very good, and Lin Qingyao clearly heard Xu Ran say embarrassedly: "Thank you." ”

She and Baotong glanced at each other, and then laughed, can Xu Ran not be embarrassed to send such a basin to Xu Ran, a stupid melon?

Lin Qingyao and Baotong talked for a while, and then lay down.

Baotong stretched out his hand and touched Lin Qingyao and said, "Qingyao, isn't it a little strange that you said this village?" ”

Lin Qingyao smiled and said, "Aren't you the most courageous? Why are you as scared as Xu Ran? "This is a bit strange, but the aura here is very sufficient, so that people like Lin Qingyao who have just entered the cultivation world are very comfortable.

Lin Qingyao tried her luck slightly, and found that the aura here was much stronger than that in the city.

Other than that, Lin Qingyao didn't notice any other problems.

When the two of them slept soundly until midnight, Lin Qingyao couldn't sleep, since she started practicing, this sleep was correspondingly much less, and she slept for three hours a day, which was about the same.

"Tap...... Kick ......" strange sound sounded outside the yard.

Lin Qingyao felt this voice, a little strange, wanted to go out and have a look, got out of bed lightly, opened the latch, and pushed it out, but found that the door was locked from the outside.

Can't open at all!

Lin Qingyao's face changed greatly! was about to use brute force to break through the door, but he heard the woman in the next room, whispering: "The way of heaven is over, three or five percent, the sun and the moon are together; Out of the slender, into the underworld, preach, breath through the gods; Evil spirits, evil spirits, and thieves are all gone. ”

When I first heard this sentence, I didn't feel anything, but when I listened carefully, I found that the middle-aged woman's tone was strange, as if she was singing.

With this sound, the sound of tapping at the door gradually faded away.

Lin Qingyao didn't sleep anymore, so she simply sat on a stool in the room and waited for dawn.

When the morning was just dawn, the woman got up and came to the door of their house, Lin Qingyao's back stiffened, ready to attack at any time, but she didn't think that the woman just opened the lock on the outside of their door, and did not make any other moves.

Next is the sound of feeding the chickens and ducks.

Baotong had a good night's sleep, and when Baotong woke up, the two of them opened the door together and walked out.

Lin Qingyao's face was as usual, as if she hadn't experienced the weird thing last night, Baotong talked to the eldest sister enthusiastically: "Eldest sister, you see that I will give you another twenty yuan, can you help us cook some porridge?" ”

I didn't eat last night, and in this stomach, the snacks and compressed food I brought were not delicious, let alone Baotong, even Lin Qingyao was not comfortable.

Hearing the money, the middle-aged woman looked at Baotong with burning eyes.

Baotong stretched out his hand, pulled out one hundred and twenty yuan from his wallet, and handed it to the middle-aged woman.

She took the money and said with a smile: "There is still some porridge, you can make do with it." ”

The porridge is made with vegetable leaves, which is not very tasty, but it is also hot.

When eating, it was on a small table in the courtyard, and several people were squatting to eat.

The middle-aged woman smiled and asked, "Are you here to explore, or are you here to buy things?" ”

Lin Qingyao said with a smile: "We travel into the mountains, but if we meet something suitable, we will take it away." ”

Baotong has worked in the auction house for a few years, and even now, he is also one of the directors of the Ye auction house, and he is very interested in those antiques, and at this time he also said with a smile: "Sister, if you have any old objects in your house, take them out and show them to us, if it is appropriate, you will definitely be given a fair price." ”
