The next morning, after a night of cultivation, the three of them all felt refreshed, but they were a little more awake than after a night's sleep. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

"Knock knock."

There was a knock on the door, and Lynch walked over and opened the door.

As soon as the door opened, Lynch saw several familiar people standing outside the door, although the rest of them couldn't remember clearly, but Lynch remembered the person who knocked on the door.

"The village chief?" Lynch raised an eyebrow.

His face was as usual, but Lynch secretly said in his heart, sure enough, the village chief had a purpose in treating the three of them like this.

"How were you okay with your rest last night?" The village chief's face was full of enthusiasm and concern at the moment.

"We had a good rest...... We were really lucky to have met someone who would have allowed us to spend the night, otherwise we would have had to find a random place to rest on the road, as we had done the other day. Lynch grinned and replied.

"That's good, that's good......"

The village chief rubbed his hands as he spoke, but looking at him, the topic was over, but he seemed to have something to say, so he didn't leave.

"The village chief is looking for me, but is there something wrong?" Seeing his embarrassed face, Lynch simply took the initiative to throw the question.

Sure enough, hearing Lynch say this, the village chief breathed a sigh of relief, and it seemed that he could finally get into the topic, so he immediately exchanged glances with the person next to him.

"I wonder if you can do us a favor?" The village chief's expression was a little apprehensive.

Hearing this, Lynch immediately frowned.

What Lynch hates most is that after others have done trivial things for him, he thinks that he owes the other person in exchange for his own help.

If you want to help yourself with such kindness, it can only be said that you think too much.

But......

Lynch has a lot of doubts about this village, and if the other party says something that can solve his confusion, maybe he can listen to it.

"Let's talk about it." Lynch said casually.

Hearing Lynch say this, the village chief's face was happy, and he hurriedly spoke.

"I think you've seen something unusual about our village...... For example, although we have a lot of livestock, we don't have enough to eat. ”

"Actually, it's because these animals weren't bred for ourselves."

"What do you mean?" Hearing this, Lin Qi was a little puzzled and asked with a puzzled face.

"Because our village needs to sacrifice these domestic animals to a wild beast." The village chief did not dare to hide it and hurriedly explained.

"Beasts?"

Lynch thought quietly for a moment, and immediately understood that this "beast" must be referring to the mysterious beast!

It turned out that the villages and towns in the mountains and forests were all harassed by mysterious beasts......

"We worship these animals in exchange for a moment of peace so that they don't harm our lives." The village chief didn't notice Lynch's thoughtful expression in the slightest, and continued to speak, and his face became more and more depressed.

"We used to be a big village with dozens of households, but now there are only a dozen families left, and the young and middle-aged people in these dozens of households have quietly left because they can't stand the threat of the beast."

"That's why our village has such a dilapidated scene." The village chief said, wanting to cry without tears.

"Why don't you leave too?" Lynch glanced at the village chief and the three middle-aged people behind him, and found that although the four people in front of him couldn't eat enough all year round, they were not so hungry that they couldn't walk.

If they're leaving, they shouldn't be out there.

When the village chief heard Lynch's words, his face showed a trace of unbearability.

"We can leave, but what about the other old people? They've lived in this village all their lives, and even if we could take them away, they wouldn't want to leave. The village chief said, and the sadness on his face was even greater.

"Also, some of the young women have left behind their babies to be fed, and with these little ones here, we really can't leave......

Listening to the village chief's words, Lynch was silent for a moment.

Lynch understood the other party's intentions, and it seemed that he wanted to help them eradicate demons......

Lynch admits that he had momentary swings and felt that maybe he could really help them.

However, he also has his own plans, and he needs to rush to his destination as soon as possible to find the treasure.

He really didn't have the kung fu to be a great good person.

Besides, he had seen too many good people on earth who didn't end well, and he didn't think he was one of the few people who could start and finish well......

Under the expectant gaze of the village chief and the other three, Lynch sighed, shook his head, and said, "I'm sorry, I can't help." ”

"How come, you must be a strong person to go to that place, you help us, it's just a handy!" The person next to him was a little anxious when he heard this, and said it directly.

These words made the village chief's face change, and he hurriedly stopped the others who wanted to say something, and then apologized to Lynch, saying that his companion was only anxious and had no malicious intent.

"It's okay." Lynch shrugged his shoulders and said that it didn't matter, and he wasn't going to help anyway.

For a moment, the scene fell into a brief silence.

A moment later, just when Lynch thought that the village chief was about to leave, the village chief suddenly reached into his arms, took out a strange necklace from his arms, and handed it to Lynch.

"If you're willing to help us, I can give it to you." The village chief's eyes were full of anticipation, as if expecting Lynch to recognize this as a good thing.

Although, he himself is not quite sure what it is.

However, after all, it was left by his ancestors a hundred years ago, and even if it is seriously damaged now, he thinks it must be a good thing.

"Huh?" Lynch raised his eyebrows, saw the village chief's movements, watched him reluctantly hand over the chain with trembling hands, and subconsciously took it.

It's a headdress, used to decorate women's jewelry, it looks pretty good, maybe someone wipes it often, keeps it clean, and even the headdress can't see the traces of rust over time.

However, a closer look reveals that the headdress has many defects, as if it had been damaged by something.

After seeing it, Lynch was disappointed.

"Village Chief, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you, it's not a good thing."

Lynch said, and in the desperate disappointment of the village chief and the three people behind him, he handed it back.

However, at the moment when the headdress was about to fall into the hands of the village chief, Lynch's expression suddenly froze.

"Huh?" Lynch's eyes widened suddenly, and he looked at the headdress in his hand in disbelief.

I don't know if it's an illusion, but at that moment just now, Lynch actually felt a trace of warmth coming from the headdress.

It actually contains mystical power?!
