Chapter 16: The Convergence of the Three Villages
The next day, Liu Feng continued to lead the people to sweep. After a night's rest, the state of the villagers improved significantly, and the speed of progress was faster. It wasn't long before the journey of several miles was over, and the village was in sight.
With a "boom", the last wild boar fell to the ground, and the way forward has been opened. A few hundred meters away, there is a small village. I've been in the game for so long, in addition to Baijia Village and Heifeng Village, this is the third aboriginal settlement that Liu Feng has seen.
Quietly approaching and observing, the village is very dilapidated, and it is also built next to the river, but it is inferior to Baijia Village when Liu Feng first entered the game. It was already ten years in the morning, but the village was quietly nowhere to be found.
"Are you sleeping during the day?" Liu Feng was a little puzzled, and led everyone into the village.
The movement of dozens of people was quite big, and after a while, people from the village came out one after another, Liu Feng looked at it, this posture was a little familiar, how did it seem like the feeling when he first arrived in Baijia Village!
About 20 people came out one after another, including old people, women, and children, but there was not a single young man.
"Damn, this situation is so similar to when I first arrived in Baijia Village!" Liu Feng complained in his heart.
The two groups of people stared at each other and did not speak for a while. Liu Feng was a little embarrassed when he saw this situation, and he opened his mouth to say something.
However, before he could open his mouth, an old man on the other side who looked too old to speak spoke first.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it seems that there are still a few days left until the agreed time. Besides, the kings are moving too much. ”
"What's going on?" Liu Feng was a little puzzled, "King? Do these people think of me as a thief? Liu Feng secretly guessed.
"The kings ask for a few days, there is really nothing left in the village. In a few days, we will definitely have filial piety ready. Seeing that Liu Feng and they didn't speak, the old man said again.
"Feelings are really when we are the king of the mountain." Liu Feng found that although the old man was calm on the surface, he was actually nervous, along with the people behind him.
Liu Feng didn't speak, and Zhou Yi and Zhang Kui naturally didn't speak. Liu Feng was thinking about how to speak for a while, but he didn't answer the conversation immediately.
"The King?" Seeing that Liu Feng and the others didn't speak for a long time, the old man became even more nervous, and said tremblingly.
"Oh, the old man doesn't have to be like this, I'm not a thief, but a villager from a neighboring village, and I'm here to pay a visit." Liu Feng finally reacted and replied.
"Huh? Not a bandit, a person from a neighboring village. There are only three villages in this valley, and since the young man went out to explore the mountain a year ago, no village still has such strength. The old man thought secretly, but his mouth did not leak a single thing: "I don't know where the strong man came from?" What's the point? Hearing that he was not a bandit, although he breathed a sigh of relief, he did not let his guard down. After all, no one knows what these people are here for.
"The old man doesn't have to be nervous, we are the townsmen of Baijia Village downstream, and I heard that there is a village here, and we came to visit, and there is no malice." Liu Feng saw that they were a little nervous, and hurriedly indicated their origin and intentions.
"Baijia Village? Does Baijia Village actually have such a strong strength? Hearing this, the old man asked, "How is your village chief Bai Ru now?" ”
"Bai Ru?" Liu Feng was stunned for a moment, "There is a person named Bai Wen in our village who is highly respected, but there is no one named Bai Ru." ”
"No way, I met him a year ago, when he was still the head of Baijia Village. Are you really from Baijia Village? The old man had some questions.
"You say the village chief? There was an old village chief in our Baijia Village before, but he was killed by bandits more than half a month ago, and he has already gone, probably the Bairu village chief you are talking about. Now the village chief of Baijia Village has long been replaced, and Bai Wen is the deputy head of Baijia Village. Liu Feng remembered the unlucky village chief when he first entered the game, and it was probably that Bai Ru.
"It's a bandit again, a thief who kills these days." When the old man heard that Bai Ru had been victimized by the bandits, he immediately became excited, "These bandits really can't die well, if it weren't for them, how could our village have fallen here." ”
"Another village oppressed by bandits." Liu Feng said secretly. But this is the background of the system, and he is powerless to change it, only to change their fate in the next process.
Liu Feng believes that if he hadn't strayed into this place, this hidden map would not have been opened, and the people here would definitely follow the settings of the system. Although I don't know what fate it is, it has nothing to do with Liu Feng.
But since Liu Feng is here, it means that they have been born, and everything that happens to them has a certain relationship with Liu Feng, which is the so-called "butterfly effect". Either way, Liu Feng felt that he needed to give these people hope to get out of their predicament. Because the longer he spent in the game, the more he felt that the people here were not pieces of data, they had their own experiences, unique heritages, and huge social connections...... So, he treats everyone with sincerity.
"The elderly don't have to worry, we are neighbors, so naturally there will be no intentions. But what did you just say about the bandits? Liu Feng asked.
"It's a long story, let's go to the village and talk about it!" Since the misunderstanding was clarified, the old man relaxed and invited Liu Feng into the village.
There is also a pontoon bridge in front of the village, and Liu Feng arranged for Zhou Yi and the others to take Xiang Yong across the river to clean up the monsters, and he followed the old man into the village. The old man also ordered the old men and children in the village to disperse.
When he went to the village chief's room to sit down, the old man explained all the reasons to Liu Feng.
This village is called Mengjia Village, and as the name suggests, it is a village established by people with the surname Meng. The old man's name is Meng Fang, and he is the head of this village. A year ago, he went to Baijia Village, where he bid farewell to the young men of the three villages who went out to explore the way. But more than half a month ago, a vision appeared in the sky, and a foreign man came. Of course, this is nothing, but on the very same day, two bandits came to the village - something that had not happened in hundreds of years.
The bandits looted the village's belongings, and because the village was full of old people and children, they couldn't resist, so they had to watch the two bandits go away. I thought that it would be over, and this loss would be eaten, but who knew that a few days ago, these two bandits came again, and they brought several people with them, and almost ran out of food in the village. Some people in the village couldn't see it, and after a few arguments, they were killed by those people, and threatened to come every six months in the future and ask them to prepare things.
But now Mengjia Village has nothing to eat, so how can there be anything to give them. Therefore, when they saw Liu Feng and his party today, they thought that the bandits were coming again, so they hated and feared it.
After hearing all this, Liu Feng understood everything. If I hadn't come here at the beginning, I would have followed the system script until I was born. If he hadn't stayed in Baijia Village, today's Baijia Village would have been another Mengjia Village.
"This is already the case, I don't know what Village Chief Meng has planned?" Liu Feng asked.
"What else, we were already desperate, but fortunately we met you. Looks like you're doing well right now, I wonder if you can help us get through this? You know, for hundreds of years, our three villages have been watching and helping each other! The village chief of Mengfang asked with hope.
"Let's not talk about that. I just heard from Village Chief Meng that you are talking about three villages, where is another village? Liu Feng asked.
"Wangjia Village is about ten miles away from here, cross the bridge, continue upstream along the river, and arrive at the place where the river turns. Since the three villages left a year ago, their strength has dropped greatly, and the roads between the three villages have been entrenched by wild beasts, and they have never been contacted again. Now Baijia Village is thriving, but Mengjia Village has declined to this point, and I don't know what happened to Wangjia Village? Seeing Liu Feng change the topic, Meng Fang was a little disappointed.
"Village Chief Meng, you can rest assured, things will always turn around. In this way, I will first open the road to Wangjia Village, and call the village chiefs of the three villages to study the future together, what do you think? Liu Feng asked.
"That's fine, if they are in trouble, you can help them." Meng Fang nodded. This old man's own problems have not been solved, but he still thinks about others, which makes Liu Feng feel the beauty of human nature.
"Without further ado, I'll go now and strive for today's meeting between the three villages." Liu Feng said that he wanted to say goodbye to Meng Fang.
"Please also invite the strong man to invite your village chief to come and get together!" After Liu Feng walked out, Meng Fang remembered something and shouted.
"No need, I'm the village chief." Liu Feng waved his hand and strode out to find Zhou Yi.
"It's really rare to see such a young village chief. I don't know where the village chief of Baijia Village was found, obviously not from Baijia Village. Maybe Baijia Village has its current achievements because of this village chief. After Liu Feng left, Meng Fang muttered.
When Liu Feng found Zhou Yi and them, they were on the other side of the bridge, and they had already advanced upstream along the river for a long distance, which saved Liu Feng some trouble. When Liu Feng arrived, he encouraged everyone to continue, and he himself joined the team that swept upstream, and he wanted to clear the way to the next village before dark.
After a day of fighting yesterday, the quality of Xiang Yong has been significantly improved, his strength has also been strengthened, the cooperation has become more perfect, and the speed of killing monsters has increased accordingly. Even though there was a break for a while, by the middle of the afternoon, Wangjia Village was already vivid.
After nearly half an hour, the road was finally opened, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
But at this moment, a voice came: "Who are you waiting for?" Why did you offend my Wangjia Village? ”
