Chapter 298: An Invitation That Can't Be Refused

Before escaping into the statue, I turned around and found that the people had not entered, so I covered my chest and took a deep breath!

At this moment, I can clearly feel that my heart is beating extremely fast and I am terrified.

The atmosphere was so terrifying that I didn't feel so frightened even when I was facing a demon general.

Although the old man said and laughed at me just now, and seemed very polite, his appearance was ...... It's fucking horrible.

I don't know who they really are...... But one thing I'm absolutely sure of is that they're definitely not normal people alive.

Normal people's skin is not like that at all, and there is no way to see things without pupils......

"Brother Tianyan...... What happened to you? ”

Huang Jinquan sat on the ground, looked frightened when he saw me returning, and asked strangely, "...... that kid just now?" He's ...... the hell."

"Shh

I interrupted Huang Jinquan's words, made a silent gesture to her, and lowered my voice: "Don't talk nonsense, they are people, normal people!" ”

"But ......"

"Don't ask, anyway, don't feel strange when you see them make any weird expressions and incredible things, just don't see it, let's go, let's go out."

"Get out? Where to go? Huang Jinquan's face was full of questions.

"If you go to that village, it's full of people from that village, and we can't go if we don't go!"

With a wry smile, I walked over to the Golden Spring, gently lifted her up against the stone wall, and then bent down to carry her on her back.

"Don't be afraid, if something happens, I'll protect you." In order to appease the Golden Spring, I forced my composure.

"I'm not afraid, it's a big deal to die...... I had already died once. Besides, with you this time, I'm even more afraid! Golden Spring leaned on my shoulder and whispered.

"Just don't be afraid!"

I nodded.

Although I was extremely reluctant, I knew in my heart that I and Huang Jinquan had been targeted by that group, and hiding here was not a way at all.

Now the plan is to follow the old man's wishes and go to their village.

If you come, you will be safe, and then you can only live and die outside the degree, and see the steps and steps.

I was thinking wildly, carrying the golden age on my back and out of the statue.

When we glanced up, we found that the villagers were gone, and only the horrible old man and little boy with lanterns were waiting for us.

"What about the others?"

I was stunned for a moment and asked the old man strangely.

At this point, I also looked down on it, and I was not so restrained in the face of the old man.

"Hehe, there's nothing else, I'll let them go back to the village first, after all, it's not safe outside!"

The old man smiled, turned around with the lantern and said, "Let's go, our grandfather and grandson will lead you back to the village, but you have to follow!" ”

When he had finished speaking, he walked in the direction of the village, and it was only then that I realized that he was walking lightly, and there was standing water on the ground, and he actually stepped on the surface of the water, and did not sink into the water.

The same was true of the little boy, as if he had no weight.

I could clearly feel her body trembling slightly.

"Calm down, no big deal!"

I whispered a soft reassurance to the Golden Spring, then raised my steps and followed behind the old man.

Because of the deep mud and water on the ground, my physical strength has not yet recovered, and I walk very slowly.

The old man was not in a hurry, carrying a lantern, bowing his body, and slowly leading the way in front.

Behind us, the little boy followed unhurriedly with a lantern, his eyes fixed on me and Huang Jinquan, his eyes rolling around, not knowing what bad idea he was making.

"Hey, little brother, what's your name?" I turned to him and asked.

"Why should I tell you my name? Do you know you well? Hum! The little boy snorted coldly, turned his head to ignore me.

His reaction was like a child's heart, and it was obvious that he apologized to me for the grievance just now, and he was still angry and didn't have a good impression of me.

"His name is Renming, you can call him Xiao Ming, it's my grandson." The old man who walked in front told us without looking back.

"Xiao Ming? Yes...... Quite a special name. I exclaimed.

"Poof......

As soon as I finished speaking, Huang Jinquan behind me couldn't help but laugh out loud, but he immediately woke up, covered his mouth with his hand, and couldn't help but snort in pain when he pulled the wound.

"Hehe, I gave him his name, although it's a bit mediocre, but it's also decent, isn't it?"

The old man said, still did not look back, his voice was hoarse and vicissitudes, and suddenly said: "'Ren' is the 'typesetting' set by the ancestors, and each generation of our clan has a fixed typesetting. ”

"Chongdao Xingren Jiafeng Guotai, Xuanwen Fuyi Meritorious Achievement, each generation is ranked according to this, and the cycle repeats. There is a Taoist character in my name, the second generation, Xiao Ming's father Pai Xingzi, the third generation, and Xiao Ming is the fourth generation. By the way, I haven't introduced myself yet, my name is Daobo, the Chongzi generation is not there, I am considered an old man, hehe! ”

The old man always smiled when he spoke, but his expression was terrifying, but fortunately he didn't turn his head now, and he didn't feel so terrible when he heard the voice.

"Chongdao Xingren Jiafeng Guotai, Xuanwen Fuyi Meritorious Achievement...... This kind of typography has so much momentum and depth. Grandpa, your ancestors should have a very high status in the past, right? Do you want to be a big official? Huang Jinquan suddenly asked.

This little girl was extremely curious, and although she was scared at the moment, she couldn't help but ask.

"The history is long, and many of our descendants have forgotten the things of our ancestors, and we don't even know our surnames......" The old man sighed and replied leisurely.

"What's your last name?" Huang Jinquan asked again.

When she asked, the old man suddenly stopped, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little weird.

My heart tightened, and I secretly scolded Jin Quan's carelessness, this old man shouldn't be angry, and he wants to take action against us in advance, right?

Just when we felt that the atmosphere was extremely tense, the old man suddenly took another step, still did not look back, but the voice came faintly: "We...... The surname is Lao, and your little brother Tianyan has the same surname! ”

"Your surname is also Lao? Are you from the Lloyd's family? ”

This time it wasn't just Golden Spring's surprise, after I heard the old man's words, I reacted even more, and I couldn't help but exclaim.

From my previous observations, and the little boy's elusive form, I always thought that these people living in the forest were youkai or something.

But listening to what the old man said, they not only have names, but also surnames and typesetting, no matter how you think about it, they look like a human clan.

Could it be that I really misunderstood them?

Are they human? Living?

What shocked me the most was that they were also surnamed Lao, and the people in the ghost mountain village halfway up Heavenly Mountain were also surnamed Lao, is this a coincidence?

Or is there something else going on?

Who are they? Why do you live here?

For a while, I thought a lot in my heart, and the more I thought about it, the more incredible I felt, and said secretly: "Aren't these people all masters of the hidden world?" The big flame hand before was the master of their village? ”

The atmosphere was a little silent, and after the old man said his surname, he did not speak again.

I was shocked in my heart, I didn't know what to say for a while, and I was confused, and I didn't know how to speak.

It was Xiao Ming behind him who hummed the tune at this time, and his mood was not affected in the slightest.

Under the guidance of the old man, we soon saw a tall black wall made of wooden bricks in the dense forest in front of us.

Sure enough, they are from this village......

There is an entrance to the village, and there are lanterns hanging everywhere in it, and the fire is bright, but it is not dark.

Only, the only thing that feels weird is that the village is quiet, surprisingly quiet, and no sound is coming out.

The old man just said that those people had returned to the village before, and there were quite a few of them, and it stands to reason that so many people live in the village, and the village should not be so quiet.

We followed the old man through the entrance into the wall, the village was relatively unobstructed by so many trees, and we could see the stars flickering in the night sky, and the hazy moonlight casting down.

The moonlight is like water, sprinkled on the surrounding houses, and the reflection in the water makes the whole village look even more eerie and eerie.

"That little fat man is a guest at my house, so come to my house!" The old man pointed to a brightly lit stilt building not far away.

"Okay, excuse me!" I immediately responded politely.

"No trouble, no trouble, speaking of which, it has been a long time since outsiders have come to our village, so naturally we have to treat you well." The old man laughed.

There was water in the ground inside the village, and it was deeper than outside, barely up to my thigh.

I couldn't walk on the water like an old man or a child, but fortunately the mud under the water was not thick, otherwise I would not have been able to walk an inch with the golden spring on my back.

I dripped, dripping with icy water, followed the old man, passing through the silent stilted buildings, not daring to fall too far behind.

"Brother Tianyan ......"

At this time, the golden spring suddenly came to my ear, and in a voice that could only be heard by two people, nervously told me that the little boy who had been following us suddenly disappeared after entering the village.

When I heard this, I turned around to inspect it, and sure enough, I couldn't see the little boy.

He had been following us before, not knowing when he left, and we didn't even notice it.

This village ...... These people ...... It was like a fog of inscrutable, and I had already learned the little boy's elusive methods, and I was not surprised to see him suddenly disappear.

But I had to be wary because the village was unusual to look at.

Just a moment after I stopped to communicate briefly with the Golden Spring, the old man had already walked thirty or forty meters.

After entering the village, he did not wait for us as before, but walked straight towards a tall building.

"Brother Tianyan...... Did you see that? The surrounding buildings are reflected in the water, and we also have shadows reflected in the water, but only the old man, there is no shadow under him...... There is only a white lantern floating and reflected underneath the water......"

Huang Jinquan trembled and said softly: "I heard that ghosts have no shadow, this old man should not be a ......?"
