Chapter 375: Mysterious Village
The smoke of the cooking stove was slowly rising, and it was the middle of the day, when every household was cooking on a fire, and there were naturally few other people outside.
The three of them were obviously dressed as outsiders, and the people of this village were really strange, and occasionally one or two villagers passing by turned a blind eye to them, and there was no color in their somewhat empty eyes.
"Go home and eat, or the food will be cold."
"Well, by the way, what are we going to eat tonight?"
"It should still be the same."
"Hey, that's weird, why can't I remember what I ate yesterday?"
Mo Kongjing watched a man and a goddess pass by her leisurely, and this normal daily conversation was weird because of the last sentence.
"Little bunny, you don't want to go home yet!"
"Uncle, do you know where my home is?"
"Uncle? I see you're getting worse and worse kid! I'm your father! Hurry up and come home with me! ”
"Oh, so you're my father."
The child who was originally playing on the side of the road was brought home by a strong man.
"Brother, the road we took yesterday? Why can't I recognize my way home? ”
"Listen to me! Walk! ”
Two boys, who call themselves brothers, who had returned home from a trip outside the village, walked in the direction of home.
"What the hell is going on in this village? Not to mention the dead silence, do the villagers have poor memories? Mo Kongjing couldn't help but look at the other two and asked, but Mu Ze, who was confused, couldn't give her an answer at all, and Xiao Xin's eyes, which were deep in thought, became deeper and lower.
Although smoke rose from every house, the village was indeed very small, and there seemed to be only about 20 households on the left and right, and even the ferry crossing was just a small dirt slope that was not formed, still far away from the village.
"In my opinion, let's find a villager and ask about the situation first." Mu Ze frowned lightly, the hot weather made people irritable, and after wandering around the village for so long, they didn't find anything unusual except for these people who went home in twos and threes.
But the dialogue of the villagers is really intriguing.
"No need, there is a post station in front of you, which is dedicated to resting people." Xiao Xin, who had been holding the fat rabbit, suddenly spoke.
"How do you know there's a post station ahead?" Mo Kongjing turned around suspiciously and looked at Xiao Xin, whose face had become ugly from the beginning.
"You look ahead" Seeing the girl's silent appearance, Mu Ze had no choice but to take the initiative to speak.
Hearing this, Mo Kongjing turned to look ahead, and unexpectedly saw a flag flying in the wind above the village, and on it were the two huge fonts of 'post station'.
When the group of three approached the post station, Mo Kongjing found that although this post station was nominally marked with the reputation of the post station, it was set up like an inn.
The wooden tables are scattered in twos and threes, although they are messy, they still look relatively clean and tidy, and there is only one shopkeeper dozing off with one hand supporting his head in front of the counter, and along the stairs next to the counter, it looks like a whole row of empty rooms.
"You dead ghost! As soon as the old lady is not here, you will be lazy! I'm going to kill you today! A short, fat woman in a big red shirt ran down the stairs in a hurry, shouting and waving a feather duster in her hand.
"Oops, hostess! Boss, be merciful! Be merciful! The shopkeeper who suddenly woke up ran out of the counter in fear, jumping up and shouting as he ran.
The three of them looked speechlessly at the two people who were chasing me all over the room, and the proprietress with a feather duster and the lazy shopkeeper were as if they hadn't seen their existence.
"You stinking ghost! Today, my mother can't clean you up! The fat proprietress panted and looked at the lean shopkeeper who was jumping up and down, and her teeth itched when she saw the other party's flexible body.
"Boss, lady, don't do this! The guests are still watching! The shopkeeper, who dared to be angry and didn't dare to speak, hid behind the pillar and cried with a sad face, but at this time, the look of the proprietress who had been angry was the same as seeing gold, and she ran to the three of them and sneered, "Yo, where did the three of you come from?" Do you want to shoot or stay in the hotel? ”
"Now, it's getting late, we still want three rooms." Mu Ze listened to a somewhat embarrassed whisper, and was suddenly stared at by the proprietress with such a passionate gaze, and he found that he always felt hairy in his heart.
"Well, yes, no problem!" Nodding frantically, the light in the eyes of the proprietress at this time was no longer just the color of gold, she immediately turned around and roared, "Shopkeeper, you lazy guy, don't you clean up the room for the three guests!" ”
"Okay, okay, I'll go right away, boss, you are angry" The shopkeeper who ran while dealing with the boss lady reached the fastest speed in his life and ran up to the second floor.
After finding that the light in the boss's eyes was getting worse and worse, Mo Kongjing very consciously dragged Xiaoxin up to the second floor without saying a word, and in Mu Ze's puzzled gaze, the proprietress twisted her bucket waist and pressed him to the bench on the side to talk exaggeratedly.
Mo Kongjing, who was about to walk into the room on the second floor, couldn't help but glance down a little more, and saw Mu Ze listening to the completely covered look, she looked at the excited proprietress again, through the slightly red cheeks, she seemed to see the proprietress at the moment, yo, there is a little fresh meat!
Time went in a hurry, and Mo Kongjing, who had no clue, sat alone in front of the window, looking at the uneven ground outside the post station from time to time with villagers walking in pairs.
She didn't understand why there was a post station in a small village, and she didn't understand why everyone in the village looked so weird, but what puzzled her even more was all the demeanor of Xiao Xin. All the way down from the Breaking Waves, of course she wouldn't miss Xiao Xin's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, and what kind of emotions were hidden under that increasingly ugly face?
"Huh? It's raining? In a daze in front of the window, she stretched out her hand and touched her face, and when she found that her hands were also wet, she immediately got up and closed the window, but when she looked up inadvertently, she found that it was already night.
The night was rainy, and there was the sound of 'dripping' rain outside the window all night, and Mo Kongjing, who had been sleepless all night, was also rare and couldn't calm down and couldn't enter the cultivation state, and always felt that something was going to happen.
On the second day, before the sky was completely clear, there was a noisy sound of the proprietress and the shopkeeper downstairs, when Mo Kongjing pushed the door open, he unexpectedly saw the room opposite, and Xiaoxin's door was also pushed open.
