Chapter Ninety-Five: Orion Village
On the second day, Liu Qi took the basalt turtle and the little golden snake on the road.
Before leaving, the Xuanwu turtle said to Wuming meaningfully.
"The Yin soldiers who hunted last night, it seems that they are looking for something? I think it must be related to the Golden Cicada Temple, your master is a terrible person, let you cultivate here, there must be a purpose, the little monk asks for more blessings." ”
More than ten days later, Liu Qi took the Xuan Turtle and the Little Golden Snake to a small village, which was a place he was familiar with, a Orion Village, but at this time, Liu Qi's eyes were full of coldness, and a restless true qi was about to come out in his body.
The basalt turtle naturally felt a sense of anger on Liu Qi's body, Liu Qi had already mentioned to them on the road, this was the village of his savior, and he didn't ask too much, and the little golden snake also lay on his shoulder.
In front of them was a deserted village, a dozen thatched huts, most of which had collapsed, dilapidated, and overgrown with weeds.
Liu Qi entered the village and walked straight towards a thatched hut, this is the house of the bearded uncle who saved his life more than two years ago, Uncle Guang'an, but he didn't expect that two years have passed.
Two years ago, in order to avoid Luo Jia'er, he escaped from Xuanling Mountain with serious injuries, and was rescued by Uncle Guang'an, the hunter in the village, and he took out a bandit den in order to repay his kindness.
Now that the village is deserted, Liu Qi guesses that it may have been retaliated against by bandits. Liu Qi felt a little remorseful, could it be that he had done something wrong with good intentions, and he was indignant in his heart.
Soon after, Liu Qi walked out of the village in silence.
At this moment, several hunter-like men passed by the deserted village and happened to see Liu Qi walking out of the village.
"Liu, Liu Qi, you are Liu Qi. One of them excitedly stepped forward and greeted him, a young man in his thirties, carrying hunting tools and a wild deer on his shoulder, apparently returning from hunting.
"Do you know me?" Liu Qi wondered.
"How can you forget the life-saving benefactor. ”
Several other men joined in, smiling kindly.
"Are you from this village, and who destroyed it? Liu Qi looked at them and asked, and at the same time, the anger on his body had not dissipated.
"Brother Liu, this village was destroyed, but it was not destroyed by anyone, it was abandoned by us, and the village moved to a new house. ”
got the answer, and Liu Qi's hanging heart finally let go.
"Let's go, let's go to the village for a drink, and the village will have a feast tonight. ”
Following a few Orion Hunters, Liu Qi entered the new Orion Village, which appeared in front of Liu Qi's eyes, must have been much larger before, and the population was obviously a lot larger, there were young girls drying clothes, children playing in the open space in the village, and adults were talking and laughing about the prey fur.
A world away from the lifeless Orion Village of two years ago.
"Brother Liu, thanks to your words back then, you woke us up. I still remember that we are hunters, we are hunters. With these words, our village has repelled several waves of small bandits, and now the village is rich and has no worries. The young man carrying the wild deer said, seemingly admiring and grateful to Liu Qi.
"Stinky boy, yes, I must have thought about it for a long time to be able to say such meaningful words. The basalt turtle was on Liu Qi's shoulder, and he spoke out at an inopportune time, which made several hunters beside him frightened and hurriedly retreated.
Those hunters had already seen a snake and a turtle on the left and right of Liu Qi's shoulders, they thought it was Liu Qi's pet, so they didn't care much, and now that the basalt turtle came out of the words, they all jumped.
"Don't be afraid, this is a psychic king. ”
The Xuanwu Turtle turned his face with Liu Qi at that time and fought, but fortunately, a bunch of curious children surrounded him, and in order to avoid hurting the innocent, the Xuanwu Turtle stopped.
"Zizi. The little golden snake seemed to be protesting, and Liu Qi had not yet introduced it to everyone.
"This little golden snake is also a psychic spirit animal, harmless to humans and animals. ”
Liu Qi introduced that at this time, the little golden snake proudly supported its body with its tail on Liu Qi's shoulder, twisting like a dance, with a very humane smile on his face, as if he wanted people to pay more attention to it.
"That little snake is so fun. ”
"It's so cute. ”
The children of Orion Village are already bold, they have never seen any wild beasts, and naturally they are not afraid of snakes.
The appearance of the little golden snake made the children in the village very fond of it. Compared to the basalt turtle, it seems to have been left out in the cold.
Liu Qi's arrival made Orion Village very lively, and many people rushed to invite Liu Qi when they saw him.
After Liu Qi saw Uncle Guang'an and his old mother, their faces were filled with satisfied smiles, Uncle Guang'an's injuries had healed, the old mother was tough, in addition to this, Liu Qi also saw Uncle Guang'an's daughter, who was a seventeen or eighteen girl, shyly hiding in the corner and secretly looking at Liu Qi.
Two years have passed, and it seems that a lot has changed, and Liu Qi is a little emotional.
Soon after, the village chief of Orion Village arrived and announced that a big banquet would be held tonight, firstly to welcome the benefactor, and secondly, to celebrate the return of several young people in the village from Xuanling Mountain.
Xuanling Mountain is only a day's distance from Orion Village, and two years have passed, and it is not surprising that someone in Orion Village can enter Xuanling Mountain to practice, but Liu Qi has not been able to see those young monks who have returned from Xuanling Mountain, saying that they will return in the evening.
With nothing to do, Liu Qi planned to walk around the village, and the little golden snake and the basalt turtle had already mingled with those children after a group of curious onlookers.
Walking in the village, Liu Qi felt a rare peace, and for more than two years, he had spent almost all of his time fleeing and fighting.
At this time, Liu Qi felt the gaze of many girls in the village on him, that kind of gaze made Liu Qi very embarrassed, to put it in layman's terms, he was throwing his eyebrows, among which there were some older women, which made Liu Qi have goosebumps, and he could only pretend not to see it.
In the evening, the whole village mobilized to prepare for the feast, but the teenagers who were cultivating in Xuanling Mountain had not yet returned.
It was not until the beginning of the feast that several teenagers appeared at the entrance of the village, there were four people, three teenagers and a girl, all of whom were sixteen or seventeen years old.
"What's the matter?" the village chief hurriedly stepped forward to ask when he saw the teenagers with injuries on their bodies.
"The senior brother guarding the mountain gate said that we did not take leave, did not let us leave, and openly asked us for bribes, but we did not pay, so he beat us. The girl named Lanno said, indignant.
"Why did that fire hurt so badly? The village chief looked at Feng'er, who was being supported by the other two teenagers, and asked.
"Brother Huo has a fierce temperament, and said that he would report to the master to seek justice, but the senior brother who guarded the door came to get angry, and he was heavy. Lanno replied.
"How can this be reasonable, how can this Xuanling Mountain produce such disciples. The village chief was furious and hurriedly helped the injured boy back.
