Chapter 082: Settle in Hongsang Village
The village is built on the mountain, shrouded in a faint mist, and you can vaguely see a large area of red mulberry trees in the mountain, and the village is exceptionally quiet under the sunset.
"Wow, it's beautiful."
Xiao Wu opened her mouth wide, and her big eyes were full of joy and curiosity.
For her, everything in human society is interesting, so she happily jumps and runs over.
"Xiao Wu, slow down, don't fall."
Arou said angrily.
Luo Chuan smiled faintly, "Arou, you are too beautiful, you are going to go to the human village later, and with your soul technique, you can change a little, and you can't do what happened just now." ”
"Yes, Childe."
Coming to the ordinary people's living area, Ah Rou flexibly changed her words, and then the light around her flickered, and soon turned into a middle-aged woman wearing coarse linen clothes with an ordinary face.
"Childe, do you think this will work?" Arou asked.
"Yes, that's all, all you have to do is stay low-key in the village, and the less people pay attention, the better."
Luo Chuan nodded, a little envious of this soul skill, although it has no power, it is very suitable for some special situations.
As far as he knew, the soul bones on Qianrenxue's body had this effect.
Xiao Wu ran happily in front, and when she came back, she saw that her mother had changed, and said with a smile: "My daughter will also learn her mother's soul technique in the future." ”
"There's no need, this wedding is just a chicken rib, it can't be used in a head-on battle, and it will waste a soul ring."
Arou shook her head, she didn't think this skill was very good.
"With my protection, you really don't have to."
Luo Chuan nodded and walked towards Hongsang Village.
Wangshan ran dead horses, they just saw the red mulberry tree not far away, in fact, they have to walk several miles to get there.
The village is located in a valley with only about 20 households, and there is a small river at the bottom of the valley, and on both sides of the river are many fields, and rows of red mulberries are planted on the river and on the hillside.
In addition to farming, this village relies on silkworm raising for a living, so the red mulberry is all over the mountains, like a piece of sunset.
"Moo."
The sound of cattle crowing appeared from the path ahead, and an old dark-skinned farmer carrying a plow was about to return to the village, when he caught a glimpse of the sound outside the valley and said with some surprise: "You guys are?" ”
The red mulberry tree is located in the middle of nowhere, and it is rare for outsiders to come over.
"Grandpa, we fled here, and I hope the village can take us in."
Luo Chuan said sincerely, all the words he said were fools.
"Fleeing?"
The old farmer frowned.
"Uncle, our parents encountered wolf thieves and had to be displaced, so they fled far away, hoping to find a place to live in peace."
Arou spoke, revealing a gloomy expression, as if she had really suffered a great calamity.
"What! Wolf thieves? ”
The old peasant was so frightened that his face turned pale.
The horror of wolf thieves, even if it is just a legend for many ordinary people, is still terrifying.
This kind of existence is murderous, rape and plunder, and its own strength is also very terrifying, it is a combination of a soul beast called the Wind Demon Wolf and a human, not a human or a beast, but it has the strength of a soul beast, human wisdom, and ordinary people are not opponents at all.
He was a little flustered and said, "You won't come to us, will you?" ”
"Don't worry, uncle, we are far away, just to avoid wolf thieves, they won't wreak havoc here."
Arou assured that she was just saying this to find an excuse for herself and others, so as not to know the origin.
"That's good."
The old farmer breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Arou, who looked like a village woman, and then at Xiao Wu and Luo Chuan, who were carved in pink and jade: "You are a family, right?" ”
"Count it as a family, this is my nephew Luo Chuan, this is my daughter Xiao Wu, my name is Arou."
In order to reassure the old farmer, Arou could only take advantage of Luochuan.
"Hello grandpa."
Xiao Wu shouted obediently, and her cute appearance suddenly captured the old farmer.
He grinned, revealing his yellowed teeth: "The little girl is so cute, I'm sure everyone will like it very much, but whether you can live or not, you still have to get the permission of the village chief." ”
"Please take us to meet the village chief." Arou said appropriately.
"Come with me, the village chief is at the head of the village, and they are the ones with the biggest house."
The old farmer smiled kindly and led the ox in front.
Xiao Wu tiptoed over and carefully touched the cow, who turned his head to take a lazy look and took a bite of the roadside weed.
"Hee-hee, that's funny."
She laughed happily as the bleating of sheep sounded in front of her, and a woman led a ewe and a few lambs by the way.
The woman was curious, "Hey, Uncle San, what are they doing in our village?" ”
"Those who fled want to stay in our village, I will take them to the village chief."
The old farmer replied, didn't say much, and took Luo Chuan and the others to the village chief's house.
A flock of ducks quacked, and a dog followed the dog, which was to see strangers.
"Village chief, come out quickly, there's something big."
The old peasant shouted, and soon an old village chief with a short and thin body and gray hair, but very energetic, walked out wearing cloth shoes.
He still had a pipe in his mouth, spit out a puff of white smoke, and accidentally glanced at Luo Chuan and the others: "Are you passing by for the night?" ”
"Village Chief, we want to stay here."
Arou is older, and the next explanation is for her.
Hearing the wolf thief, the old village chief was also startled, choking on the medicine and coughing.
After a while, he said with a somewhat flushed face: "I am also very sympathetic to your plight, but our village is very poor, and judging by what you are wearing, you should have been considered a rich family before, so you are sure you want to live here?" ”
"Village chief, I used to be rich, but now all my family wealth is gone, I just want to live in peace, this is our little heart, and I ask you to accept it."
According to Luo Chuan's previous arrangement, Arou took out ten gold coins and hurriedly stuffed them into the village chief's hand.
"Hey, this is not good, you are in a difficult time, how can I take your money."
The village chief hurriedly shook his head, and was about to return the gold coins to Arou.
"Don't worry, village chief, we suddenly came here, we have to occupy a piece of land to live in, and we have to have a house to shelter from the wind and rain, we have to nag you to help, so please accept it."
Luo Chuan smiled, this old village chief is not bad, he did not take advantage of others.
However, it is impossible for him to run away from other people's homes and not give money in vain, so this gold coin must be given, if it is not for fear of scaring the old man, he has no problem giving a few hundred gold coins.
When the old village chief heard Luo Chuan's words, he showed a thoughtful look, took a deep breath of the old cigarette, and said with a smile: "Okay, your new home here, the old man will help you do it, stay in my house for a few days first, and then take you to choose a vacant land, and soon build a small courtyard for you, how about it?" ”
"Thank you, village chief."
Luo Chuan nodded, having money is easy to do, and now it can be regarded as a smooth settlement in Hongsang Village.
