Chapter 63: Longevity - The Circle Protects Peace
"Ahem...... Ahem......"
Before entering the door, there was a coughing sound in the small bamboo building, and listening to the sound, it should be an old man.
The sunny window of the small bamboo building is ajar, and the early morning sun shines quietly into the window, which happens to envelop the delicate table by the window in sunlight.
The white-haired old man, leaning on crutches, slowly walked to the window and sat down, turned over a cup that was upside down on the plate, poured himself a cup of freshly brewed tea, and took a sip unhurriedly.
At this moment, a brisk knock sounded at the door, and the old man put down his teacup and answered the people outside the door.
"Please come in."
With the permission of the master, the husband and wife gently pushed open the hidden door, perhaps because it was a little old, and the door made a creaking sound, which sounded a little harsh.
"Uncle Village Chief, Happy New Year."
The old man raised his head and looked at the two young men in front of him, feeling a little familiar.
"I always feel that the two young heroes are a little familiar, have we met somewhere?"
The husband and wife were stunned, and then smiled lightly, when subduing the bully, there were many little knights to help, thinking about it carefully, the husband and wife did nothing, and it was natural that the village chief didn't remember them.
"Does the village chief remember the white deer he saw in the suburbs yesterday?"
"White deer......?"
The village chief remembered the white deer that was surrounded by everyone, its head was raised high, its eyes were bright, it looked very spiritual, it was definitely not a mundane thing, as long as it was seen, it would naturally not be forgotten.
"I remember, you guys...... It's the owner of the white deer, right? ”
"This white deer is a thing of the immortal family, it is the only one within the Three Realms, we don't have such a blessing, it is indeed following us now, but we are not its master, we just brought it here to find its master."
"I see."
The village chief beckoned the couple to sit at the table and poured them hot tea.
"Speaking of which, the place where we met the bully yesterday was very remote, why did you go there?"
"Alas...... It wasn't because those bullies injured a few hunters in the village, and the little knights who passed by saved them, and they kindly wanted to ask for an explanation for them, and the villagers who heard the news followed, and I was afraid that something would go wrong, so I also went to see. ”
"I heard that these bullies have been doing evil in this area for a long time and disturbing the peace of the villagers, so why haven't you reported it to the government?"
"Alas......"
I saw the village chief sigh deeply, picked up the half-cold tea on the table, took a sip slowly, and paused a little before continuing.
"Government ...... I'm afraid that if it is reported, they are also beyond the reach of the whip, presumably the two of you have also seen it, our village, the front is the dense forest and the sea, and the back is the land of the immortals. ”
Although Changshou Village is prosperous, as the village chief said, it is backed by high mountains and surrounded by the sea on three sides, which is actually a land island.
"Fangcun Mountain at the other end of the village is also considered the land of immortals, haven't they ever helped?"
"Fangcun Mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, there are a lot of people who enter the mountain, but they rarely see people in the mountains come out, the little knights in the past will help themselves, but those thieves are not stupid, they always see the right time, and they will not clash with them head-on, this is unprovoked, that is, to find the door, what can you do with them?"
"But it's not a way to go on like this, this time it's a fluke, but what if there is such a thief in the future?"
As he spoke, a middle-aged man walked in, dressed as a hunter, who should be a villager of Changshou Village, followed by a handsome young man.
"Village chief, this son claims to be a disciple of the Bodhi Patriarch of Fangcun Mountain, and he has something important to discuss with you."
The middle-aged man ushered the young man in and left, and the villagers still had a lot of farm work to do.
"Childe, please take a seat, I don't know why you came here this time?"
As he spoke, the village chief walked to the stove, took out the tea that had faded from the teapot, replaced it with some new tea, and put it on the stove to boil.
"Yesterday, my disciples rescued a few Orions in the suburbs, and I heard that they said that wild beasts were rampant in this area, and thieves were rampant, so the master sent me down the mountain to investigate the situation, I don't know if the injuries of those Orions are serious?"
"There is the Lao Xian family who came to greet in person, they are all just skin injuries, and there is no major problem, and those thieves have also been punished, but they are just ......"
"If the village chief has something to say, you might as well say it directly."
"Although the thief was imprisoned this time, it is still difficult to determine what will happen in the future, and I don't know how many days this longevity village will be peaceful."
The water on the stove boiled, spewed out from the spout of the pot, and fell on the side of the stove and churned violently, and was steamed dry in a blink of an eye. The village chief looked at the churning white bubbles and sighed softly.
"Then I wonder what the village chief is going to do? What can be done? ”
"What can be done, you can only be careful, our village is full of ordinary people, if you make a move, there is almost no chance of winning."
"In fact, the juniors came this time, it was on behalf of the master to discuss this matter with you, before going down the mountain, the master had handed over a few charms to the juniors, as long as they were used to set up a ban in the four corners of the village, the spiritual power of those demon beasts would be restrained, although I dare not say that they must be safe, but at least they will not easily hurt people."
"It would be nice if it could be like this, but the thieves are cunning, what if that spell can't restrain them?"
"It's said to be a charm, but it's actually a small magic circle, placed in those more remote corners, it is not easy to find, and it can resonate with the spiritual power of the talisman, if the villagers are in danger outside, this talisman and magic circle can protect them."
The young man said, handing a delicate wolf's tooth talisman to the village chief.
"But this talisman ......"
"This wolf tooth talisman is the only one, the village chief still needs to be careful to keep it, the spiritual power on it is endowed by the Antarctic Immortal, as long as it is an object with the same spiritual power as this talisman, it can trigger the power of the magic circle."
"Antarctic Immortals...... But the old man at the foot of Fangcun Mountain at the other end of the village? ”
"Exactly."
"That is the case, there is Lao Gongzi, your faction is very gracious, the old man is grateful, he will come to the door to thank him one day."
The village chief stood up and bowed to the young man with a big salute.
"Don't say that, the village chief, this longevity village is located at the foot of Fangcun Mountain, which is closely related to my faction, not to mention that this is the only way to enter and exit our faction, if there is any difficulty, our faction should help."
Several people went out together, the village chief was ready to go to the suburbs with the big disciples of Fang Cun Mountain to arrange the magic circle, and the husband and wife were ready to continue to set off.
"Uncle Village Chief, then we will say goodbye first, I believe that with these magic circles, the demon beasts in the suburbs will not come to the village again."
"Yes, this longevity village may finally be peaceful."
