Chapter 353: Yan Village, which is also a little strange
The location of Yan Village is not too far from the living village, and it is no wonder that Lu Xiu will be mistaken, and the outline of a village can be seen after walking south for 3 minutes from that planting area.
"Recently, a monster did bite a few livestock in the village to death, but it was not as exaggerated as the mission said." The old woman said as she walked, "The monster only appeared at night, and if we keep the door closed at night, the evil beast will not be able to harm us, but for the sake of safety, I want you to pay attention to it, so I exaggerated the situation." ”
"Have you seen that monster?" Lu Xiu hesitated for a moment and asked.
Although it seemed that the strange living village was just a flash in the pan, with the appearance of the old woman, Lu Xiu returned to the normal world again, but Lu Xiu still felt a trace of weirdness in his heart.
"There is a rule in our village..."Speaking of this, the old woman stopped, slowly turned her head, and looked at Lu Xiu seriously, "At night, no one is allowed to go out of the room, and no one is exempt. ”
Lu Xiu was stunned for a moment: "Do you want to be with me?" ”
The old woman nodded, "The rules handed down by our ancestors have been passed down for more than 10 years, so it's better not to break them at will, sir." "Since I knew that Lu Xiu was specially dealing with the monsters, the old woman's title changed from a young man to a gentleman.
It's weird...
Lu Xiu's brows tightened, and he slowly reasoned out his thoughts.
This Yan Village... Obviously asking for help from the Magic Guild, he didn't let people go out in the dark... It doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all... Obviously, the fastest solution is to let Lu Xiu wait for the rabbit in the dark night, and kill the monster directly when it appears, but he has to slowly search for clues during the day, find the monster's lair and then kill it...
Isn't that redundant...
Since they all said that they want to pay attention, they are not in a hurry to deal with the problem at all...
Lu Xiu shook his head slowly, and then asked, "Why did Grandma appear there?" Why does Grandma say that Living Village is a dangerous place? When I first entered the village, I said hello to the villagers, but within a minute, everyone in the village was gone. ”
"The old woman was picking medicine not far away, but the wife of the family broke her foot. As for the living village... The old woman can only advise Mr. It's better not to have anything to do with the living village. The old woman sighed slightly and said slowly.
"Where's your child?"
"I'm in town... Today's children, who still want to stay in the village? The old woman shook her head slowly and grumbled.
"That's really..."Lu Xiu was speechless for a while, and he didn't know how to comfort the old woman.
To be honest, on the issue of how to get along with his parents, it is indeed a blind spot for Lu Xiu.
I didn't understand it when I was young, but when I grew up, the second elder was gone.
I used to read the sentence "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind does not stop, and the son wants to raise but does not wait", but I don't feel anything, but now that I think about it, my heart is a little bitter for some reason.
He wants to go back and sweep the tomb of the second elder...
"Here we are." The old woman suddenly made a soft call, which woke Lu Xiu up from his contemplation, and Lu Xiu slowly looked around.
Compared with the silent living village, this Yan village is very lively.
The shouting and scolding and talking are endless.
Who's family, who's who, who did something yesterday, and the like and so on all poured into Lu Xiu's ears.
"Oh, Mrs. Yan, I'm back from collecting medicine." The women, who were talking about the shortcomings of the family, greeted the old woman as she slowly walked into the village.
"Everyone... Let's all come over here. Old Lady Yan let out a low cry.
Although the volume was not loud, it was unexpectedly weighty, and everyone stopped what they were doing and walked over.
"Let me introduce to you, this one is the Magister sent by the Fairy Tail Guild to help us exorcise the monsters, named..."The old woman Yan then remembered that she didn't even know Lu Xiu's name.
"My name is Lu Xiu." Lu Xiu hurriedly reported his name.
The villagers quickly clapped their hands, unusually enthusiastic.
"Huh, little baby, do you have a girlfriend? My daughter is handsome, do you want to think about it? The woman who greeted the old woman began to sell her own daughters as soon as she came up.
"Emma, you can save it, your two daughters haven't been back for more than ten years, and I guess they're about to forget about you as a mother." The villagers are unpretentious and have no scruples.
"Go aside, my daughter wrote to me the other day!" Aunt Emma yelled dissatisfied.
More than ten years? Lu Xiu looked at Aunt Emma, who looked to be in her 40s.
This... At what age did her daughters go out?
"Ahem..."The old woman coughed slowly, but the two who were about to quarrel stopped, and both of them snorted coldly and stopped paying attention to each other.
"This time I called everyone over to let everyone know Mr. Lu, okay, it's okay, let's go to work..."Old Woman Yan waved her hand and said slowly.
"Mrs. Yan, where does Mr. Lu live?" Aunt Emma suddenly shouted, "Let him come and live in my house, it just so happens that I have an extra bed in my house." ”
Old Woman Yan looked at Lu Xiu and asked for his opinion.
Lu Xiu was slightly stunned, and nodded slowly, "It's okay for me... Doesn't bother you, does it? ”
"It's okay~" Aunt Emma waved her hand happily, and she was extremely enthusiastic about Lu Xiu.
"Look at her... Gee... I guess I want to ask someone from another village to find my daughter again..."I heard the whispers of the villagers next to me.
"Emma is also strange and pathetic... The husband died early, and as a result, the two children were abducted just a few years after they were born. ”
Lu Xiu's brows furrowed slightly.
"Alright, let's disperse." The old woman dropped a sentence lightly, glanced at the two whisperers without a trace, and then walked towards the end of the village tremblingly.
"Mr. Lu, let's go." Lu Xiuben was still thinking about it, and the loud voice of Emma suddenly sounded in his ears.
Lu Xiu woke up and nodded again and again.
The two walked one after the other towards a small alley.
The layout of this Yan village is also strange, obviously the construction form is roughly the same as that living village, but the houses in the village have changed the pattern by force, and the houses that should have sat on both sides of the central avenue facing south and north instead sat west and faced east, directly blocking the central avenue, leaving only a small road between the houses for people to walk, which is very cramped.
The only places that are a little more open are the open space when I first entered the village, and a field behind the village.
Wacky layout... Lu Xiu muttered in his heart for a while, and followed Emma into a room.
