Chapter 683: Enter the Village

"The two of you, please," I was still hesitating to agree to Lin Xuanzhong's request, but now seeing that Lin Xuanzhong and Qingyi had already discussed, the old man was so nervous that he didn't dare to say a 'no' word again.

"Third child, you and a few of them will lead the beast cubs to the mountains as soon as possible, and Zhou Lao and I will accompany the two adults to the village for a trip," because he also heard the conversation between Lin Xuanzhong and Qing Yi, and saw that the old man promised to take the two of them, the older man just now immediately handed over the matter of leading away the beast to the others, and then he himself walked towards this side with a vigilant look on his face.

Following the direction from which the voice came, Lin Xuanzhong noticed that it was not only the man, but also several people next to him who were also looking at them with a wary face. Noticing the strange eyes of those people, Lin Xuanzhong suddenly realized that he was going to visit them and sacrifice to the lord. However, the words that are said are like water spilled out, and if you don't say it now, I'm afraid it will be even more suspicious, so Lin Xuanzhong can't change his words.

"Okay," the young man known as the third child slowly looked at Lin Xuanzhong and Qing Yi before slowly turning his head and leading a few companions to lure the beast away.

"Two adults, let's go," the matter has come to this point, and the old man has no choice but to bite the bullet and invite Lin Xuanzhong and Qingyi to their village.

"My name is Dahu," Immediately after, the slightly older man walked over, pointed to the old man next to him with a respectful face and introduced to the two: "Huang Lao is our village chief, and we are all villagers of Shiqiao Village below. At this moment, the man who called himself the Great Tiger no longer showed his wariness of the two on his face, and instead spoke to the two with a polite face.

"Big Tiger," when Lin Xuanzhong silently read the other party's name, Qing Yi simply read out the person's name. Immediately afterwards, both of them thought of the two acquaintances in their respective memories, the big tiger and the big bull brothers. It's been a long time since I saw Da Niu and Da Hu, I don't know what the situation of the two brothers is now, and now I think about it, both of them have a feeling of nostalgia.

And the reason why Qing Yi pronounced the other party's name was not only because the man in front of them had the same name as the big tiger, but more importantly, the other party's posture and temperament were the same as the big tiger imagination in Qing Yi's memory, so Qing Yi would read out the other party's name.

"What?" The next time, the man named Dahu asked with a puzzled face, not understanding why Lin Xuanzhong and Qing Yi looked at him with a special look.

"Brother Big Tiger don't worry, Qingfeng and I have no malice in going to your village," it was Qing Yi who answered, because he had a better and better impression of the man in front of him, and Qing Yi said some words directly.

"Two adults?" I don't know why Qing Yi said it so clearly, and he took the initiative to call him brother, Da Hu suddenly looked surprised, and didn't understand why Qing Yi called him like that.

"Qingfeng and I are both members of the Night Army, and I believe you can tell from what we wear. Before, the two of us just walked around the mountain casually, and we didn't come over to see you until we saw you, and it wasn't to be bad for you, so you don't have to worry," Glancing at Dahu and Huang Lao and the others with surprised faces, Qing Yi showed a faint smile on his face. It looks very human, which naturally makes those people let their guard down.

"The rank of the two adults in the army must not be small," Zhou Lao, who had been worried about inviting the two of them to the village, would be the one who lured the wolf into the house, but at this moment, after Qing Yi explained in detail, he slowly put his mind at ease. According to Huang Lao's opinion, if Lin Xuanzhong and Yi Zhen came to trouble them, they would not be able to resist at all with their strength, so Huang Lao quickly figured out that Qing Yi did not call the big tiger like that for some purpose.

"Let Huang Lao and everyone laugh, my name is Qingyi, just a deputy general in the army. But my brother Qingfeng is a general in the army," smiled at Huang Lao and the others, because of the existence of the big tiger, Qingyi put down his identity and became kind. In a trance, Lin Xuanzhong felt like going back to the days when he was in the mercenary team a year ago, when Qingyi was what he is now, no matter who he faced, he could treat it calmly.

"It turned out to be two generals, please forgive Lao Yu and a few juniors for not knowing Mount Tai, if the words collide with the two adults, please forgive the two adults," Originally, according to the age of Lin Xuanzhong and Qing Yi, Huang Lao thought that the two were just ordinary night army officers, but now after Qing Yi took the initiative to introduce, Huang Lao was immediately shocked, and he was about to kneel and bow to the two.

"Elder Huang, if you don't dislike it, treat us as guests, and don't have to salute us," After listening to it for a long time, Lin Xuanzhong finally had a chance to speak. Thinking about the simplicity of those villagers, Lin Xuanzhong felt that it was best to communicate with them in an ordinary capacity.

"The old man doesn't dare to make a mistake, and please accept the amendology of me and the other mountain villagers," Huang Lao shook his head and looked scared, and felt that their faux pas just now might have offended Lin Xuanzhong and Qingyi, and he didn't think about what Lin Xuanzhong had just said about me, and he was going to take a few people from the big tiger to salute the two of them.

"Huang Lao, you haven't done anything wrong, you don't have to be like this," stepped forward to support Huang Lao, Lin Xuanzhong was more and more helpless about the trouble caused by his identity.

However, after Lin Xuanzhong stepped forward to support Huang Lao, Huang Lao really couldn't salute the two anymore. After saying a few words to Huang Lao that he couldn't bear it, Lin Xuanzhong asked the big tiger to get up again. After some hard work, the two were finally able to communicate with Huang Lao and others as distinguished guests.

Next, the enthusiastic Huang Lao introduced the two to their village. There are more than 100 large and small families in Shiqiao Village, and there are hundreds of people in total, which is not a small village. Like other mountain villages, the villagers have been living an ordinary life, and there is nothing worth saying much. It was only when talking about the sacrificial lord and the situation that the village was facing now that Huang Lao couldn't help but say a few more words.

After walking for a few miles, when the group reached the edge of the village, some villagers took the initiative to greet them. But when they noticed Lin Xuanzhong and Qingyi, they stopped one after another and didn't dare to step forward, and no one dared to speak.

"Let's all go back, the third child has already sent the beast away with the others, and it should be back in a while!" Knowing that the villagers didn't dare to speak, Dahu directly explained what they wanted to know.

Through the exchange just now, Dahu has a certain understanding of Lin Xuanzhong and Qingyi's behavior. Regardless of the purpose of the two of them wanting to see their sacrifice lord, the two of them really had no ill will towards them. It is worth mentioning that because of the mutual familiarity between the two sides, Dahu now takes the initiative to invite the two of them to the village.

"Da Hu is right, you all go back," those villagers seemed to be a little shocked after hearing Da Hu's words, so Huang Lao simply said something himself.

Immediately afterwards, after Huang Lao spoke, the dozens of villagers who had originally gathered together dispersed, leaving only some older people who wanted to ask Lin Xuanzhong and Qingyi what was going on here.

"Uncles, please go back too, the two adults are the benefactors we met on the road, and they helped us restrain the beast, so the village chief invited the two adults to our village as guests," Walking in front of the old men, Dahu explained to them directly.

"Okay, then let's go first," one of the older men heard Dahu's explanation, and immediately beckoned the others, and then several old men left with the villagers in front.

didn't pay attention to what Da Hu said to those people, Lin Xuanzhong was still thinking about something. What Huang Lao said just now about the frequent appearance of fierce beasts around the village made Lin Xuanzhong sure that there were already a large number of fierce beasts in the edge area of the heavy mountain in the north. Although there are only occasional beasts that break into the village, it is a precursor to the presence of a large number of beasts near the village.

In the past while, the villagers have used the previous method to lure away many fierce beasts that they can't deal with, and of course some fierce beasts have been killed during the process. However, although there was the priest who helped them resolve the dangerous situation again and again, according to today's events, Lin Xuanzhong could see that the villagers did not have the strength to deal with a large number of fierce beasts, and once the number of fierce beasts around the village exceeded their ability, sooner or later this Shiqiao Village would become the survival territory of the fierce beasts, just like the original Orchid Village.

Thinking about the situation that Shiqiao Village is facing now, Lin Xuanzhong can understand why the previous villagers had a worried look on their faces. Now because there are more things to understand, in fact, for Lin Xuanzhong, it doesn't matter whether he goes to see the sacrificial lord or not. Because according to Huang Lao and the others, it was not difficult for Lin Xuanzhong to think that the ability of the sacrifice adults they said was limited.

It's just that when Lin Xuanzhong realized this, it had already become Huang Lao inviting them, so the two of them still couldn't turn around and go back directly. Now that they had reached the village, the two of them had no choice but to visit the priest.

According to Lin Xuanzhong's guess, the so-called sacrificial master should be a beast tamer, but the beast tamer who works in such a village must be just an ordinary beast tamer. While thinking about it, he walked, and unconsciously followed Huang Lao and the others to the middle of the village, in front of a house.

According to the respect of Huang Lao and others for the sacrificial adults, it is understandable that this residence is located in the middle of the village, but why it is three simple grass houses is very puzzling. Looking around, the surrounding houses are all blue bricks and green tiles, it stands to reason that the priest has such a high status in the village, and he should not live in such a simple place, the more Lin Xuanzhong thought about it, the more curious he became.
