"Jack is back!"

Biel was a loud voice, and before he even entered the village, his loud shouts echoed throughout the village.

At this moment, the sun is setting, the smoke in the village has just dissipated, the families are eating dinner, and a few local dogs can be seen running by from time to time on the village road.

At Beard's shout, the large and small portals in the village opened one after another, and curious heads stuck out of them.

In the mountain village in winter, the usual days are unusually boring, and since the beginning of winter, no outsiders have come to the village.

Walking on the only main road in the village, Jack happily greeted everyone he knew, and Qi Lin also waved his hands at the familiar figures with Angel on his back.

"Jack, why are you back?"

At this moment, an old man with a cane who looked to have a white beard came out of the courtyard in the center of the village.

The old man was dressed in a pure white bear skin, and with his face covered by a thick beard, he also had the demeanor of a blind bear.

And although the old man is old, his body is not weak, even in the wind and snow, his pace is still steady, and the crutches in his hand look more like an ornament to him.

"Grandpa the village chief, I'm here with the boss!"

Jack noticed the old man and quickly ran over to help him, his expression definitely more respectful than when he faced Qi Lin.

The old village chief nodded slightly, and then looked at Bier, who was accompanying Qi Lin, and shouted: "I forgot what your mission is, there is no one guarding the entrance of the village, what if some beast breaks in and hurts people?!"

Hearing the shout of the village chief, the heroic man who could fire a series of arrows just now trembled, and then quickly turned his head and ran towards the entrance of the village.

"I'll go back and keep watch. ”

After driving Biel back, the old village chief then cast his gaze on Qi Lin and the others, especially Allen for a moment, and then he put away the serious expression on his face and beckoned to Qi Lin with a slight smile.

"I didn't expect to be able to come here in winter, Qi Lin is also an old friend of our village, let's go home for dinner first, are the others your companions, come together!"

After saying that, he didn't wait for other people's opinions, and directly pulled Jack to his house.

Seeing the village chief like this, Qi Lin shrugged his shoulders and whispered to Allen: "The village chief is like this, he is strong and does not allow others to refute, and when I came to Bilodo before, he was also so strong. ”

"I'm old, but I have good ears!"

As soon as Qi Lin finished speaking, the village chief, who had already walked out for a distance, slammed the ground with the crutches in his hand and shouted without looking back.

Qi Lin smiled bitterly at Allen, but he didn't care very much, Bilodo and the village chief were originally very good friends, and then Bilodo's relationship, his relationship with the village chief was also very good, and such innocuous jokes were not arrogant.

But at this moment, Allen's face became solemn at the moment, just now when the old village chief used a crutch to pestle the ground, the crisp sound of the crutches and the ground showed that the material of this crutch is definitely not ordinary, judging by Allen's experience, this crutch should be made of iron or steel.

You must know that the crutches in the hands of the old village chief can be more than two meters long, the thickness of duck eggs, even if it is a wooden crutch as large in size, the weight will not be light, if it is made of iron, Alan wants to lift it with one hand, it is estimated that it will take some effort.

And the old village chief walked around with a crutch in one hand, and from his movements, he couldn't analyze how heavy this crutch was.

It seems that the hidden people in this village are not only Bier, who guards the entrance of the village, but even the old village chief is very simple.

Unlike in the city, the houses in the village are basically made of wood, after all, wood is the most important thing in the Black Forest.

It is only necessary to build two layers of hollow wooden planks, introduce mud in the gap in the middle, and after the mud solidifies, the insulation effect of the finished house will be exceptionally good.

However, the only disadvantage of this is that it is difficult to build a house that is too large or too tall, after all, once too much mud is poured in, it is easy to crush the planks, so the other villagers live in small huts of only thirty or forty square meters.

However, the village chief's house is made of bluestone, and the whole house is more than 300 square meters, not so much a house as a hall, in fact, what activities in the village are indeed held in this bluestone house.

Although the area is large, and a thick layer of mud is smeared in the cracks of the bluestone, but due to the large heat dissipation area, the thermal insulation effect of this kind of house is destined to be inferior to that of ordinary villagers.

Although the temperature is a little higher than the outside, judging from the basin of frozen washing water in the house, the temperature inside the room is about 0 degrees Celsius.

However, after the village chief entered the house, he threw the bear skin he was wearing into the corner of the wall, revealing the short coat on his body.

In an instant, Qi Lin and the others saw the figure of the village chief, and what was extremely incommensurate with his white old face was that his whole body was covered with strong muscles, and the strong muscles exuded a shiny brilliance.

In the temperature of about 0 degrees Celsius, the old village chief was wearing a thin shirt and shorts to prepare food in the house.

Don't talk about Allen at this moment, even Angel, who has always been ignorant, whispered Qi Lin and asked, "Isn't this old man cold?" But Angel's hands are almost frozen!"

Before Qi Lin could answer, the old village chief turned his head and looked at Angel with a serious face, although there was no killing intent in his eyes, but the majestic momentum still made Angel want to turn her head uncomfortably.

Unexpectedly, just after taking a look at Angel, the old village chief's seriousness softened instantly, and the whole person's temperament seemed to have become the grandfather of the ** granddaughter.

He said in an unusually soft tone: "Grandpa usually loves to eat meat, and his body is strong, so he is not afraid of the cold, you little girl is very good-looking, she is thin and thin, and she has suffered a lot before, and grandpa will roast a bear heart for you in a while, and you will not be afraid of the cold if you eat it." ”

Hearing the words of the old village chief, Angel's eyes lit up, and she looked at Qi Lin in general verification, maybe she was afraid of freezing since she was a child, and the little girl was most afraid of the cold, and now even if she was wearing holy clothes, she felt that her little hands and face were frozen and painful.

Qi Lin patted Angel's head amusefully and said, "Meat can provide more energy to the body, and it can indeed improve people's ability to withstand the cold, but believe me, your small body will definitely not be able to eat a bear's heart." ”

Then he looked at the old village chief who was pouring things from a big cabinet and said, "You still live in this big house this year, and I don't know how to stand it, it's cool in winter and warm in summer." ”
