Xue Chuan took Yin Manqing to rest for a while, and then walked towards the mountain village that was located on a low ground in the mountains. It is also thanks to this section of the mountain road that seems to be often walked, stepping out of a faintly visible and convenient walking road.

When the two of them descended the mountain, they saw a winding dirt and stone path leading to the sparsely populated village. The trail is lined with large mountain terraces where you can faintly see people plowing it.

Among them, one or two villagers who were originally working in sweat and rain were stunned in place after seeing the figures of Xue Chuan and Yin Manqing from a distance, and then threw down the hoe in their hands and ran towards the village quickly.

Yin Manqing was a little uneasy: "Why are they running?"

Xue Chuan's pace was still very gentle, and he said calmly: "Naturally, I went to ventilate and report the news." ”

"Will it be dangerous?" Yin Manqing was intimidated by Xue Chuan before, and now he was also a little vigilant.

"Don't panic," Xue Chuan's tone was very calm: "Just go." ”

After a while, more than a dozen people came out of the village, and two of them were standing in front of them to lead the way.

Xue Chuan's eyes narrowed slightly, glanced at the group of people, and said in a low voice: "Wait until you stand behind me, don't make a sound, if someone asks you a question, you just need to smile shyly." ”

"Hmm. Yin Manqing didn't ask the reason, and trusted Xue Chuan very much.

originally thought that he needed to explain Xue Chuan. Seeing Yin Manqing cooperate so much, he also glanced at her in a little surprise, and then turned around and continued to walk forward.

This path is not too long, the total distance is only about two hundred steps, and it is in the distance of these two hundred steps, Xue Chuan has already seen many things from that group of people.

First of all, that group of people is definitely the most powerful group of people in the village, otherwise when they see outsiders, ordinary villagers will not be specially called to check the situation, and only the managers who are the backbone can have this treatment.

Secondly, although the two villagers were leading the way, their bodies were facing the same position, that is, a middle-aged man in his forties, with a full mouth and unkempt hair.

The middle-aged man's eyes were very deep, and at the same time, there was a hint that made Xue Chuan a little unhappy. Generally speaking, this implication means that the other party is trying to analyze or calculate Xue Chuan.

"Seventeen people... Fourteen men and three women... It's kind of interesting. Xue Chuan muttered to himself.

This sex ratio is an interesting phenomenon, and generally speaking, when villagers see outsiders, they will call some acquaintances in passing after notifying the person in charge.

And women are the most curious, theoretically speaking, aside from the few authoritative managers, there should be far more women than men who come to observe Xue Chuan and the two, but this is not the case now.

"There are more men and fewer women, and it's still in a semi-enclosed area like a deep mountain village..."Xue Chuan pondered in his mind, and at the same time held Yin Manqing with his right hand and led her behind him.

"The vast majority of people are people who are nearly middle-aged or over half a hundred years old... Aren't all the young people here going out and staying away?" Xue Chuan frowned slightly, realizing that something was wrong.

When they got closer, the dozen or so people also saw the appearance of Xue Chuan and Yin Manqing clearly, and seeing that these two were just teenagers and girls who had not yet reached adulthood, these villagers were also slightly relieved.

And when they saw Yin Manqing's face clearly, a low voice of admiration and exclamation spread in the crowd, causing a lot of discussion:

"This little girl is so beautiful..."

"Where did the people come from? Aren't they from the rich and noble..."

"Why did you come to us for no reason..."

The middle-aged man who had been noticed by Xue Chuan first raised his hand and signaled the people around him to be quiet, and those slightly noisy voices quickly returned to calm.

Seeing this, Xue Chuan's heart sank, and he said secretly: "Such a high authority, if it weren't for his superior personal ability, it would be the rule of power that prevails here!"

Soon, Xue Chuan and the others walked three feet in front of the dozen or so people, and at this time, Xue Chuan stopped with a slightly expectant but somewhat panicked look.

"What kind of place is this?" Xue Chuan asked.

The middle-aged man looked at Xue Chuan and the others for a while, especially Yin Manqing for a long time, before he showed a kind smile: "We are Gutong Village here. What, what's the matter with you two little dolls coming here?"

Xue Chuan showed a relaxed look: "We got lost in the mountains, and we plan to stay here for one night, I don't know if there is any place." ”

The middle-aged man showed a surprised expression: "You two dare to come to the mountains to play?

At this time, Yin Manqing subconsciously wanted to answer, but Xue Chuan pressed her palm and stopped her behavior.

Xue Chuan said helplessly: "It's not that I sneaked out to play, but now I lost my way, but it is estimated that it will not be long before they will find it." ”

The middle-aged man noticed Xue Chuan's small movements just now, and a strange meaning flashed in the depths of his eyes, and he still said kindly: "Of course there is no problem, you can choose a family to stay for one night temporarily, the villagers here are very friendly." ”

Xue Chuan was just about to answer, but out of the corner of his eye, he found that next to a few houses in the distance, there were faint shadows of several probes probing his brain, not just who was peeping.

The middle-aged man found that Xue Chuan's eyes were in the wrong direction, and moved half a step sideways without a trace, blocking Xue Chuan's gaze, and said with a smile: "What's the matter? It's very dangerous at night in this forest, and it's easy for you to have an accident if you sleep outside." ”

Xue Chuan retracted his gaze, sneered a few times in his heart, touched his chin, pretended to ask for a moment, and sighed: "It's only like this, it's really bothering you." ”

"If you don't get in the way, when you go out, you can help, not to mention that you are just two children. The middle-aged man was kind and pleasant, gave way and said gently: "You just call me Uncle Zhang." ”

Xue Chuan nodded, also smiled kindly, and led Yin Manqing to follow this Uncle Zhang.

When passing by a few onlookers, many people asked curiously, "Little girl, how old are you?"

"It's so smart at such a young age, and you still have it when you grow up?"

"Where are you from?"

Yin Manqing remembered what Xue Chuan said, so he pretended to be shy and lowered his head, leaning against Xue Chuan's body, silent.

Xue Chuan held Yin Manqing's hand tighter, and at the same time showed an apologetic look: "I'm really sorry, my sister is afraid of life by nature, and it's not strange to be rude." ”

"Where, it doesn't matter. ”

"The little girl is quite beautiful when she's shy. ”

The crowd responded in a friendly manner.

Xue Chuan nodded, looked at Uncle Zhang, and said, "Please lead the way." ”

Uncle Zhang smiled kindly and said, "You don't have to be restrained, the people here are very hospitable and friendly." ”

Xue Chuan smiled slightly and did not speak.

After the two of them followed Uncle Zhang and drifted away, the few people who stayed in place lowered their voices and sneered: "He took the lead again." ”

"What's the solution? you want to rob him?" someone scoffed.

"Forget it, I'm satisfied with leftovers. The man smiled strangely.

"To be honest, the girl doesn't know where the daughter is, with fine skin and tender meat, I don't know how comfortable it will be when pressed under her... Hey, hey, hey...."

Naturally, these words would never reach the ears of Xue Chuan and the others.

Xue Chuan followed behind Uncle Zhang, and along the way, he also had a rough idea of the situation in the village, and couldn't help but sneer in his heart.

"It's not a good place. Xue Chuan said in his heart.

Although those people acted well before, their expressions looked sincere and natural, and they were obviously hospitable and simple, but Xue Chuan, who had read countless people, could naturally see the difference between false feelings and true feelings.

The malice in the depths of those people's eyes has always been seen by him. Especially after seeing Yin Manqing's appearance, the depths of those people's eyes seemed to loosen a cage containing desire, revealing a lot of uncomfortable meanings.

Not to mention the so-called Uncle Zhang's caring words, what "what about the adults in your family?", in fact, it is a test of the identities of the two, if Xue Chuan did not say that the family has begun to look for him, let him cast a mouse trap, I am afraid the situation will be even worse.

"This place, at first glance, is almost full of men... Only a few women have ever shown up, and I'm afraid there are still some unknown things that have been covered up. Xue Chuan said secretly.

"Obviously, there were traces of residual paper-cutting on the door for holding a happy event, but I didn't see the figure of the woman, could it be that they were all imprisoned?

Thinking of this, Xue Chuan secretly sneered in his heart, and raised his vigilance a little more.

"This Uncle Zhang, by what means did he gain the support of these people..."Xue Chuan stared at Uncle Zhang's back and began to try to speculate.

"Here, this is my house, there is still some room in the house, you can live here. Uncle Zhang suddenly stopped next to a larger house and turned around and said.

Xue Chuan showed a grateful look: "Thank you so much, there are really many good people in this world!"

"Don't be so polite, I'm just going to do it. Your room is the innermost one, and you'll know it in the past. Uncle Zhang smiled and waved his hand: "If a guest comes to our village, there must be a table to welcome the banquet, I will inform them to prepare for it, you two go and rest first." ”

Xue Chuan nodded, and after saying goodbye to Uncle Zhang, he walked into the house with Yin Manqing, and walked towards the innermost room that Uncle Zhang said.

When he heard the footsteps behind him, Xue Chuan gradually showed a sneering expression: "What a Gutong Village, what an Uncle Zhang..."

Yin Manqing was puzzled: "Is there any problem?"

The sneer on the corner of Xue Chuan's mouth became more and more intense, and he said, "Problem? There are many problems in this village!"
