That night, everyone stayed at Orson's manor.

Before nightfall, Xu Zheng went around the entire manor and had a general impression of the manor. The whole Orson Manor is a ruin in the first place, at least as it shows. Except for a mute old man, there was not even a single ghost in the entire manor.

This mute old man named Abel was robbed by the wind thieves from somewhere, and although he was mute, he had a good hand in muddy water and carpenter's skills, so he was kept. Orson killed the wind thief to death, and after running, Abel had nowhere to go, so he naturally stayed and took care of the manor for Orsin. Afraid of Orson's methods and prestige, the wind thieves were so frightened that they did not dare to come back, and the whole manor became an old man living alone.

It's just such a big manor, just such an old man, where can he take care of it? Orson is a wandering man, and returning here once in two or three years is already considered to be diligent, and after such a long time, the manor will be abandoned, and only the land cultivated by the old man in the vineyard can still grow vegetables and grain, and the old man almost lives on this.

Abel was enthusiastic, and suddenly he was very happy to see so many people, but he couldn't speak, so he could only desperately gesture to everyone, and his movements were so fast that no one could see it.

Xu Zheng was deeply influenced by Eastern Confucianism, and had an almost instinctive love for the elderly and children. I saw that this man's hair was gray, his face was wrinkled, and his palms were thick and full of cracks. Laughing with a charitable face and the vicissitudes of time, I instinctively liked this old man, and followed him to visit the whole manor.

Abel couldn't go fast, so Xu Zheng followed slowly and didn't urge. Seeing that the old man sometimes struggles to go uphill and downhill, he will instinctively help him. Knowing that the elderly are easy to be lonely, and also knowing that as a dumb mouth, they can't speak, and many times they prefer to listen, Xu Zheng watched from all sides, and at the same time told Abel some interesting things about the imperial capital.

The old and the young have been together for less than half an hour. Abel, who has no children and no daughters, already hurts Xu Zheng very thoroughly, and when a pair of old eyes see Xu Zheng, they can't help but smile and touch Xu Zheng's face with their rough big hands.

Xu Zheng's skin and limbs from years of hard work made Xu Zheng very itchy, and he couldn't help laughing, laughing while supporting Abel with his arms, and walking forward with a smile.

Orson watched with great surprise from the sidelines, and his sour eyes slipped between the two. Obviously, his son was born by himself, but his elbow is always turned outward, and he is closer to everyone than to himself. Xu Zheng doesn't like to deal with Aosen very much, and Aosen automatically and spontaneously sticks it up, always sticking his hot face to Xu Zheng's cold buttocks, and he doesn't like each other. For this son who has been looking for seventeen years, Orson loves him again. I feel guilty again, I just feel that as long as I can be with Xu Zheng, everything else doesn't matter.

The three of them turned all the way down, and Xu Zheng had a deep understanding of the entire manor: if in the previous life, if he used it to make ghost movies, he didn't have to go through any processing at all, and he could go directly to the horse!

You see, this spider silk is thick, thick and heavy, three layers inside and three layers outside hanging down, and there are many corpses of unknown insects on it. You can also see fist-sized spiders flying and jumping agilely on them, which made Xu Zheng think that these were not spiders, but some magical beasts that looked very similar to spiders. Look at the doors and windows again, they have been in disrepair for many years, rotting and rotting, dilapidated and broken, and the unbroken ones look quite intact. Goosebumps went wild.

There were four wells in the entire manor, three of which had dried up, and the remaining one was still bubbling water. The quality of the well water is good, Xu Zheng tried it, and it was quite sweet. But the dry three didn't dare to compliment. Stick your head out and look down. The black throat inside is not known how deep, and there are some strange things crawling in it. Make a rustling sound.

When the wind blew, it swept over the dry well, whining in the air, and the crumbling doors and windows fanned, making a terrible creaking sound, cutting people's nerves like a saw. When encountering a room without doors and windows, the wind comes in from this side and blows out from that side, blowing the shadows of the trees and shaking the shadows of the ghosts. Xu Zheng kept shivering, and the goosebumps all over his body came and went, and they all came out to report, and he was severely chilled.

Hey, Mamma Mia, this is a manor that people live in, it's basically a dilapidated and decadent version of the royal residence of the vampire count Dracula. Sleeping here, Sadako will probably crawl out of the well in the middle of the night and talk to you with her hair scattered......

The more Xu Zheng looked at it, the more he lost confidence, and the more he looked at it, the more he felt cold in his heart. Oh my God! This is the peach source in Aosen's mouth? I thought hatefully, if only I still had a starship in my hand, the main gun was fully powered and bombarded with a single shot, bombarding this damn place!

Ao Sen was very proud, and kept explaining, what is this room for, what is that room for, and even Xu Zheng's new house and nursery room for marrying a wife and having children in the future have been planned, and he was so excited that his fingers were messy, and the white foam on his mouth was spraying.

It was very immoral to hit him at this time, so Xu Zheng didn't say a word, full of sympathy for this father who came out halfway. If he really wants to say it, it can only be a thousand words: Dad, you are really miserable......

The three returned to what had been used as a makeshift hall, where several women were packing. The men were on the sidelines, unable to intervene, not knowing what to do.

Orson found a chair and sat down, and as soon as his butt was next to it, the chair was very faceless and fell into pieces, and went directly to drink tea with Hades. However, this did not affect Orson's high spirits, he patted his butt, got up in a very chic manner, and continued to look forward to a better future.

Xu Zheng couldn't stand it anymore and asked the most critical question: "Abel, what are we going to eat at night?"

Abel began to gesture quickly, and it is estimated that this gesture was also developed spontaneously, completely unorganized, unruly, and without symbolism. Xu Zheng didn't understand it after watching it for a long time, so he could only guess that he was estimated to be at least hungry for this meal.

Ao Sen was still talking, Xu Zheng turned his head and asked Lan Si again: "Commander, how many gold coins do we have?"

"Eight gold coins, sixty-seven silver coins, thirty-two bronze coins. "Lan Si didn't even have to think about it, and reported the property that everyone now shared.

It worked, Orson's voice stopped abruptly, his eyes widened suddenly, and he said in disbelief: "That's it, I remember there were a lot of them when I set off?"

Lan Si looked at this man who had no concept of financial management and was careless, and said: "Nearly twenty adults, sixty-three little tigers, all the way here, no need to eat or drink on the way, no need to buy necessities of life, not to mention that if you see such a good thing, you have to buy it for Xu Zheng, and if you see that something is good, you have to buy it for Xu Zheng." I have no objection to you buying it, but you have not taken a single copper coin out of your pocket every time. With this kind of flower, how much do you think we have left?"

"Uh......" Orson laughed dryly, "I'm not poor." When I knew that Gai Yuli gave me the gold coins, I didn't have to pretend to be high with my own identity. ”

He turned his head to look at Gwen again, and said, "You can be regarded as eloping with someone, so you didn't get out of anything?"

Gwen suddenly had a black line on his face, and said angrily: "At that time, I patronized and ran with Qijia, how could I take care of this." However, there are still some jewelry on his body, which should be able to exchange some money. After that, he took off the earrings and bracelets, handed them to Xu Zheng, and said, "Anyway, it's useless, take them for money." ”

In view of the current situation, Xu Zheng didn't bother to be hypocritical with her, so he took it all. Qi Jia Shi reached out and pinched Gwen's palm, and said softly: "Thank you for your hard work, when I have the money, I will buy it for you." ”

Gwen smiled lightly and said, "Later, with you, it doesn't matter if those things are or not." ”

Chigashi's eyes turned slightly red, and he shook Gwen's hand hard.

"Stop!" exclaimed Chuck, "I'm numb to my flesh! Don't do this kind of show of your affection here! Think about it, what you eat tomorrow and what you will eat the day after tomorrow is the right thing." ”

Everyone gave him a blank look, annoyed that he didn't understand the amorous feelings, but when he turned his head and thought about the current predicament, he really had a headache.

All of them are human, orcs, humans, all humans, and they all have to eat to continue living. And this manor, as far as the current point of view, is simply barren land, and it can't face the northwest, and you can be full by opening your mouth wide and drinking the northwest wind, right?

Xu Zheng thought for a moment and asked, "Is there a place nearby that can be traded?" such as a city, a place where you can buy food and daily necessities?"

Orson said: "There is no nearby. There are only four large trading cities in the entire Discord Continent, the nearest of which is six days away. ”

Xu Zheng's face darkened again, and he looked at Abel sympathetically, it was a miracle that he could live here for so many years......

Everyone pondered for a while, but they couldn't think of a good solution to the current predicament, and finally had to give up. After a long journey to get here, everyone was tired and couldn't turn their heads.

Abel went to make supper, Jenny went with him to help, and when the supper was served, the people ate the black bread and the potato-soup-like stuff they thought it was to eat it.

Then Abel announced that in fact he was using his own developed sign language, which no one understood. However, after going in and out of the kitchen and pantry, Jenny could understand what she said: "I guess Abel means that this meal is very unfortunate to eat up all the food!"

Clang!

The wooden spoon in Xu Zheng's hand fell into the bowl, and his mouth opened uncontrollably.

Hey, mother, I really can't live this day...... All of them fell into the predicament of having no money and no food.
