Chapter 421: Something Goes Wrong

Under the leadership of the old man, Piao Wu and Ni Ping'er went straight to the tallest tower.

The villagers who were originally onlookers have gradually dispersed now, and the few who are still following must be well-known people in the village.

Piao Wu and Ni Ping'er were greeted into the tower by a group of people. The facilities on the first floor are quite simple, but there are quite a few tables and chairs. It seems that this is the hall where the villagers often gather to discuss important matters. After all kinds of excuses, he sat down as the chairman without a trace, and Ni Ping'er sat down next to him.

After a week of patrolling without a trace, Fang Jue stayed here all of them were men, and they were quite young, at least middle-aged. It is not difficult to judge from the expressions of these people, they are all led by the old man who spoke before.

Under the leadership of the old man, these people chatted with Piao Wuxian and Ni Ping'er one after another. Clearly, they were interested in the mysterious world to the west of the primeval forest. However, under the vague and ambiguous answers, they seem to have been mistaken for Westerners who speak the same language as the East.

Alas, this is actually a helpless thing. Because, without a trace, he can't explain why he can speak the oriental language fluently. However, drifting without a trace knows in his heart that it is okay to fool these rural villagers who have never seen the world. Once a martial arts person knows about this, it will inevitably see a flaw in this. Fortunately, Piao Wu and Ni Ping'er did not plan to stay here for a long time.

In the chat, Piao Wuxian and Ni Ping'er also learned a little about some martial arts people. Because this village is closest to the primeval forest, there are often martial arts people who pass by. Moreover, many martial arts people will habitually come to this village to recuperate for a period of time and replenish supplies in time during the adventure in the primeval forest, and then go deep into the primeval forest again to adventure.

After learning this information, Piao Wuxian and Ni Ping'er were inevitably worried, for fear that they would have a confrontation with the martial arts people who came. Therefore, it didn't take long for Piao Wu to stand up with Ni Ping'er and plan to leave as soon as possible.

However, to the surprise of Piao Wuxian and Ni Ping'er, these villagers who accompanied the chatting tried their best to keep them.

Drifting without a trace, he suddenly felt that something was wrong, so he asked bluntly: "Uncle, has something happened to your village?"

"Less than two, in fact, these days, we are very much looking forward to the arrival of martial arts people. So, when we first saw your form, we were not only amazed, but also disappointed. The old man said with some emotion.

"If my guess is correct, then the reason why these martial arts people come here from time to time is largely because of your hospitality. Isn't that right?" asked Drift Without a Trace.

The old man nodded meaningfully.

"And why are you so hospitable, and what is the reason for this, other than being helpful?" asked Piao.

The old man didn't speak, just nodded.

"I see that you have high walls here, and I think you must be harassed by monsters from time to time. Although the lower level monsters are powerless in front of such high walls, the higher level monsters are not limited by high walls, which is why you have built this tower to warn you at any time. If my guess is correct, then there should be a secret room under the foundation of each house. Isn't that right?"

After listening to the words that drifted away, the old man's emotions were finally no longer calm, but nodded again with some excitement.

Drifting away from a trace, he noticed the hopeful gaze of everyone, and became more and more determined in his heart. "And the reason why you are so hospitable to the martial arts heroes is, in the final analysis, to attract them to come often. Only in this way, when you are attacked by powerful monsters, can you seek the help of those martial arts heroes. Under normal circumstances, no matter how powerful the monsters are, they usually can't block the fierce attacks of those martial arts heroes. ”

The old man finally gave us a thumbs up and said in his heartfelt admiration: "Your Excellency's ingenuity and wisdom are really admired by the old man! In fact, the martial arts heroes have helped us more than just destroy the monsters. When these martial arts heroes harvest a lot, they often give us some tamed monsters. These monsters have become a great reliance on us to settle down here. ”

Hearing this, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I didn't expect that the 'win-win' that is all the rage in earth diplomacy can be so vividly reflected in this small village!" According to you, it should not be our turn to solve the troubles encountered by your village!"

"Alas, the world is impermanent! Who would have thought that in the past few days, the behavior of those martial arts heroes would be so abnormal?" the old man sighed with a gloomy expression.

"Oh, I don't know where the anomaly is?" asked Piano immediately with a solemn face.

"All the martial arts heroes who went deep into the primeval forest poured out. In the past few days, the martial arts heroes who have hurried past our village have no idea, but they were bound to go to the village to take a rest, but they went straight ahead uncharacteristically. No matter how much we prayed, they would not linger. What's even more strange is that the martial arts heroes who originally came to explore every half a day at most have not seen a single one these days. It seems that all the martial arts heroes suddenly regarded this primeval forest as a flood beast and avoided it. Alas, it's just that in this way, it is us villagers who suffer!"

After listening to the old man's explanation, Piao Wu and Ni Ping'er couldn't help but be vigilant. Because, these two days happened to be the moment when the two of them entered the primeval forest.

"Could it be that the abnormality of these martial arts people is because of us?" With such a question, Piao Wuxian asked in confusion: "Old man, don't you have the monsters sent by those martial arts heroes? Could it be that in just a few days, coupled with the ironclad defense of your village, what will happen to the big thing?"

"Alas, how powerful can those monsters given to us by martial arts heroes be?" (Drifting without a trace and Ni Ping'er think about it, and think it is too.) Really powerful magical beasts, those selfish martial arts people are reluctant to give them away!)" After the old man sighed, he continued, "It's also unlucky for us." In the most abnormal moments of those martial arts heroes, they just encountered the most headache monster disaster. Moreover, this time the monster seems to be unprecedentedly powerful, and it can still calmly fight back when we gather all the demons in the village to besiege it. Alas, in that battle, the monsters that we had managed to accumulate for many years were almost completely killed and wounded. At the same time, it also lost a number of strong laborers......" At the end, the old man was already choked up.
