In the square, a temporary stage was erected.

On the stage, a group of scantily clad women with heavy makeup writhed vigorously under the deafening disco and danced without any sense of rhythm.

There were thirty tables under the stage, banquets for land, sea and air gatherings, and the dishes were full of colors and flavors, but no one sat at the table. Men and women, young and old, gathered in front of the stage to watch the meat selling performance.

When the dancer pulled the only pants under her, the audience whistled excitedly, took out the red banknote, crumpled it into a ball and smashed it on the dancer.

In stark contrast to the noisy square is the quiet entrance of the village. The only thing that encompasses the entire village is the six-metre-high brick and concrete walls, with a thick closed iron gate and a sentry post on the wall.

At the sentry, a young man dressed in plain clothes looked into the square with his goggles, leaving behind the task of keeping an eye on the outside of the village.

When the dazed Ma Li walked to the big iron gate, he shivered, and suddenly came to his senses.

"Gollum"

The hunger pangs in his stomach made him desperate to get food.

"Bang Bang Bang"

He slammed the iron door hard: "Is there anyone?" Can I open the door? ”

When the guard heard the strange noise, he hurriedly hung his glasses around his neck, stuck his head out of the sentry, and looked at the horse's hat under the city wall.

"Who are you?"

Ma Li tilted his head and let out a kind smile: "My name is Ma Li, and I have come to find Envisa. He said he wanted to introduce me to work. ”

The guard staggered downstairs, opened a movable window on the iron door, and stared at Ma Li with defensive eyes: "We don't have anyone named Envishadou. ”

"Really?" Ma Li touched the back of his head, "Envisa Bean is his online name, as for his real name, I don't know." ”

"Bang"

The guards closed the activity window heavily.

Ma Li hurriedly patted the door, for fear that the other party would ignore him: "This big brother, can you please open the door, I am not a bad person." If you don't feel at ease and don't want me in, you can give me something to eat. I haven't eaten in a long time......"

Just as he was disappointed, the iron door opened.

"Come in." The guard smiled and made an inviting gesture.

"Thank you......" Before he could finish his thanks, the guard gave him a warm hug.

"Don't say kind words. Our Eden Village is surrounded by mountains, and it is really not a morning shop in front of the village, and it is rare to have guests come to the door. It's an honor for you to come to us. ”

"Now, do you see that glittering house? It was the head's house, and there was a square in front of his house. The annual commendation meeting is being held here. There is food there, you can eat whatever you want when you go. ”

"Big brother, thank you! You are truly my lifesaver. ”

Ma Li held the guard's hand tightly, and the latter smiled: "I still have to be on duty, so I won't accompany you." With that, he walked up the stairs behind the walls to the sentry.

"It's ......," Ma Kasa noticed at a glance at the wall with no end in sight.

It doesn't look like an ancient ruin, it looks like it was just built. But what does a village do with such a high wall?

Magasa shook her head.

What do you do with so much, let's go to the square to fill your stomach first.

As he passed by the neatly planned houses, he was a little surprised by the opulence of the village.

It seems that Envisa Bean is right, the villagers here are all local tyrants. I don't know if the job he helped me find was to make a tyrant's thigh pendant.

In other words, this commendation conference is too attractive. I walked for a long time, and I didn't even see a single villager.

When he walked to an alley, he faintly heard the disco sound of the last century, and knew that he was not far from the square.

After walking for more than ten meters, he walked near the exit of the alley, from which he could see the banquet in the square, as well as the crowd and the stage in the dark.

"This village is also bigger!" He sighed and walked out of the alley. As soon as his front foot hit the ground, a dark shadow knocked him to the ground.

"Wow!"

A black Tibetan mastiff with a shoulder height of nearly one meter supported the horse's shoulders with its front paws, and barked wildly at the horse's head with its mouth open.

The panicked Mahata screamed as she grabbed its paws and tried to push it away.

"Oh~oh~" The Tibetan mastiff bared its teeth and let out an aggressive roar, making Ma Li dare not make any additional movements for a while. In addition to smelling a fishy stench, he also saw bloody flesh foam between the dog's teeth.

It, it's not going to eat human flesh......

The news of the Tibetan mastiff biting a human to death filled Ma Li's entire head, making him shiver and breathe rapidly.

Dogs are human, I can't provoke them! If I am hostile, it will attack me. If I show kindness, it will ......

"The black scorpion is back!"

The young man, who was in the period of changing his voice, called out, and the Tibetan mastiff secretly licked Ma Li's face, and then ran back to the young man's side.

Ma Li propped himself up, looked at the boy and exclaimed, "It's you!" ”

It turned out that the person who saved his life from under the dog's mouth was the boy who stepped on himself before.

The young man slapped the Tibetan mastiff's head and apologized: "I'm sorry, the black scorpion will be excited when it sees a stranger." But don't worry, it's docile and never bites. If you don't believe me, come and touch it. ”

"Woo~" The Tibetan mastiff lay on the ground, his front paws on his eyes.

Ma Li took two steps back without showing a trace, and said with palpitations: "Thank you, no need." ”

The boy kicked the dog in the back: "You go back." The Tibetan mastiff fled happily.

The large hound that frightened Ma Kasa was gone, and he regained his old swagger, and took the initiative to hold the young man's hand: "Hello, my name is Ma Li. ”

"Mingjing."

After the two shook hands, Ming Jing walked towards the square with Ma Li.

Along the way, neither of them mentioned stepping on or being stepped on.

The reason why Ma Li didn't mention it was that the boy had slapped his own mouth, and then picking out what happened outside the village would embarrass the boy. And his act of calling the dog away to save himself proves that he is not a bear child who went to the house to uncover the tiles.

Based on these two points, Ma Kasa decided to put the unpleasantness outside the village behind him.

But the wild man in the young man's mouth, and the wall that surrounded the village, made him a little curious.

"Xiao Ming, I want to ask ......"

Ming Jing smiled awkwardly: "Brother Ma, don't call me Xiao Ming, as soon as I heard Xiao Ming, I thought of math application problems." Headache! ”

"Haha." The young man's joke made the uneasiness that lingered in Ma Li's heart, the uneasiness that he didn't even notice it, completely disappear.

"There was Xiao Ming in the textbooks when I was in school, but I didn't expect that there was still Xiao Ming in your era. Well, I didn't mean to laugh at your name. ”

Ming Jing also laughed: "No, no, I remembered it wrong." What we write in our textbooks should be Lao Ming, after all, after so many years, Xiao Ming has long been old. ”

"I like your kind of humor." Ma Li hugged Ming Jing, who made him feel kind, but he didn't notice the resentment that flashed in the young man's eyes.

The young man pointed to the banquet not far away and said, "The banquet is about to start, let's talk while eating." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the noisy disco stopped.

A middle-aged man walks up to the stage and waves to drive away the dancers who are busy picking up money.
