Chapter 931: Crowds
After everyone was full of food and drink, Duo Ling took all the remaining bean buns away, Yun Zhen was punished by Tianchu for causing trouble with his mouth to carry the burden to Lao Xu Tou, and the gang was humped by the head of the dart, and the group walked in the direction of the small village he left a day ago under the leadership of Lao Xu Tou.
After a day's walk, I passed several deserted villages that had been washed away by floods, which had changed beyond recognition and had long since become a wasteland.
When it was nearly ten miles away from the village, the puppet insects in the Tiangang gourd began to be restless, constantly hitting the Tiangang gourd, and every time it hit, the golden runes on the gourd flashed.
Sure enough, there were puppet insects in the village where Lao Xu Tou came, and everyone suddenly became nervous and quickened their pace.
As we got closer to the village, the frequency of the gourd's shaking became higher and higher, and it felt like it was about to explode, which made people panic.
More than 100 steps away from the village, everyone stopped, and saw that the people in the village had gathered at the entrance of the village, looking in their direction, they should have been summoned by the puppet insects in the Tiangang gourd.
Although he already knew that this village was occupied by puppet insects, but seeing so many people being infested by demon insects with his own eyes, Tianchu's heart was still as uncomfortable as a knife cut, but he couldn't stop it, so he could only remedy it later, so that people who passed by in the future would not be victimized.
"You wait here, don't move, Bai Yue, you come with me!" After Tianchu finished speaking, he ran to the village with Bai Yue.
"They're going to be fine, right?" Seeing Tianchu and Bai Yue passing, Lao Xu Tou was a little scared and a little worried.
"Don't worry, my master is amazing." Yun Fei held the sword, looked at the distant backs of the two, and said confidently.
I saw Tianchu and Bai Yue set up a formation around the village, and the villagers who became puppets in the village were like bees chasing flowers, they followed them wherever Tianchu went, Tianchu kept a distance from them, these puppet insects couldn't get out of the village, as long as Tianchu didn't step into their forbidden land, it was safe.
It took about an hour to set up the formation.
This time the old Xu Tou was an eye-opener, he had never seen such a magical scene in most of his life, he watched a village of dozens of households disappear in broad daylight, as if it had never been.
Old Xu Tou rubbed his eyes again and again in disbelief, his eyes were about to bleed, and he couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really a god!" God! Are you immortals? ”
"Yes, yes! My master is the god who came down to earth to save the people in the world! "Yun Zhen just likes to talk nonsense, and he uses the topic to play, and he starts to tease Lao Xu again.
After listening to Yun Zhen's words, Lao Xu Tou was in awe of Tianchu, and immediately kept snorting his head in the direction of Tianchu and Baiyue, and his mouth was still chattering, and he saw Yun Zhen straight.
When Tianchu and Bai Yue came back and everyone was on the road again, Lao Xu Tou said that he wouldn't let Yun Zhen bear the burden, he had to come by himself.
Of course, Tianchu didn't know what was going on, but he found that Lao Xu Tou's eyes seemed to have changed when he looked at Tianchu, and his speech became much more respectful, and he was much more respectful to everyone.
Back on the official road, everyone continued to walk in the direction of Jiangzhou, and walked for several days, Lao Xutou's burden became lighter and lighter, Duo Ling rode on the back of a sika deer, walked all the way, and her mouth did not stop all the way, just for her own food, Lao Xu Tou had to steam bean buns twice a day.
As they got closer and closer to Jiangzhou, they also met more and more people at the beginning of the day on the road.
Like Lao Xu Tou, these people are all people from other places who want to go to Jiangzhou to earn a living, young people who want to make money, vendors who sell groceries, and a father and daughter who have defected to relatives and a medicinal herb merchant.
Gradually, at the beginning of the day, they grew from a team of nine people at the beginning to a team of nearly twenty people, and this time it was more like fleeing.
The medicinal herb merchant was an old man surnamed Liu, with a follower named Ah Jin, Ah Jin was leading a donkey, and the donkey had several pockets on its back, and I don't know what valuable things were contained in them, and the two of them were always wary of everyone, as if everyone was beating their minds.
And Master Liu is very selfish, he followed them at the beginning of the day just because they were Taoist priests at the beginning of the day, and they could protect them on the road, but they didn't want to pluck a hair, and they even sneaked around when they were eating, and refused to share it with everyone.
The father and daughter are surnamed Lin, the father is in his early fifties, and the daughter is about fifteen years old, she looks smart, very shy, doesn't talk much, and looks at the patches and patches of clothes between the two, and knows that they can't survive before they want to go to the city to join their relatives.
The young man who wants to go to Jiangzhou to find work is called Ah Kuan, although he is not tall, but he is very strong, with dark and strong muscles, honest and honest, diligent and happy, this way is either to help Lao Xu Tou carry the burden, or take the initiative to find all kinds of work to do.
There is also a little merchant, who speaks more funny and sings mountain songs, and is a particularly interesting person, who has everything in his box except food, as if he has picked two treasure chests.
Although Lao Xu can steam bean buns, it can only be eaten by Duo Ling alone, and the others have to rely on Yun Fei and Yun Zhen to hunt and eat every day, and every time they can get big guys, tigers, wild boars, bears, etc., which time shocked these ordinary people.
At the beginning of the day, they were not as stingy as Master Liu, there was meat for everyone to eat, but everyone was not for nothing, Ah Kuan was diligent and able to work, although Lao Lin was not in good health and couldn't do anything, but Xiaolin girl was very skillful, cleaning up the prey to the barbecue, and doing everything well.
Although the little merchant did not do much work, but he knew how to please people, when he ate, he performed a show for everyone, told a story, sang a song, everyone liked him, and the little merchant was also very generous, often gave some gadgets to the girls as gifts.
When she saw that Shaolan had been blindfolded and knew that Shaolan didn't like to show her true face, the merchant gave her a copper semi-mask mask, the texture of the metal was very in line with Shaolan's cold temperament, and she seemed to be more heroic, and it was rare that Shaolan also liked it very much.
Only the unsociable Master Liu, although he was so hungry for meat that he drooled, he still hid aside and nibbled on the dry bun and refused to eat a bite of their meat at the beginning of the day, for fear that if he ate people's short mouth, others would ask him for something.
Tianchu specially asked these people, have they encountered that kind of strange village on the road, fortunately, these people are either without money, or they are too careful with money, and another reason is that they are afraid of getting lost, and they have been wandering around the official road, and they have not entered any village, so they have avoided those dangers and are lucky to live until now.
When Yunfei and Yunzhen hunted every day, they walked around to find out if there was a village or something.
On this day, the two brought back a bear and told Tianchu that they had seen a small village in the col in the distance on the mountain, and it was estimated that they would meet it after another day's walk.
