Chapter 1001: Settle down

I was stunned and a little puzzled, but I didn't plan to speak again, so as not to be taken away by him and not know it.

By this time we had walked for more than half an hour, and the road under our feet was getting steeper and steeper, and if I hadn't been good at it, I would have had to trot.

What surprised me was that Chen Yongtai and Chen Chong had stable faces, just like walking on flat ground.

"Don't worry, kid, the place I'm taking you to now is related to Miao Jiang Dao Technique. But you have to promise me that you must not talk freely when you get there, especially not to reveal that you are a member of the four major families, otherwise they will kick you out and I will not care about you. ”

Chen Yongtai finally relented, Chen Ming and I glanced at each other, and the big stone in my heart finally fell to the ground.

But since Yulan Peak is so secretive, is it possible that the people of Miao Jiang are really living in seclusion here? Was it Chen Yongtai who told them?

In other words, when the four major families joined forces, they failed to completely eradicate the Miao Jiang people, because Chen Yongtai gave them a chance to live, Yulan Peak.

When you think about it this way, it seems that everything is connected in series.

Why did Chen Laoyi, an open-minded person, not tolerate Chen Yongtai and not contact him for many years, it is likely that he knew that Uncle Yongtai was helping the people of Miaojiang.

I glanced at Chen Ming and found that his eyes looking at Chen Yongtai were not soft, it seems that this kid should know something.

We silently followed behind the old man, behind Chen Chong.

Well, it's possible to spy on us?

I didn't think much of it, anyway, this is not my territory, and I can't help what he thinks. At most, when I go back, I will sarcastically mock Chen Lao.

Who asked me to recommend someone?

I grinned, much more relaxed than I had just been.

After walking for more than ten minutes, I saw a small village in the distance, surrounded by a solid fence, and two strong men with scythes in their hands guarding the gate.

Presumably this is what Chen Yongtai said was related to Miao Jiang.

Sure enough, Uncle Yongtai raised his hand and told us to stand still and not move, while he himself walked to the door with Chen Chong, talked to the two men guarding the door, and turned around from time to time to point in the direction of me and Chen Ming.

I raised my eyebrows and patted Chen Ming, "Hey, Brother Chen Ming, hurry up and say it when you have something to say, it's not easy to talk when you go in for a while." ”

After speaking, I also snorted at him, and motioned him to see Chen Yongtai chatting with the two men, which was an acquaintance.

“...... Actually, it's nothing, when I first returned to the Chen family's house, I heard the old people in the family mention that Chen Yongtai is a taboo in the clan. No one contacted him except for Chen Lao. It is said that he never cares about the affairs of the Chen family, maintains a neutral state between Miao Jiang and the four major families, and does not help each other, but he never refuses in the face of Chen Lao's request. ”

When Chen Ming was talking to me, Chen Yongtai was waving at us and asking us to come over.

However, the two villagers beside him looked vigilant, and it seemed that even if they agreed to let us into the village, they would probably keep an eye on the two of us at all times.

I smashed my mouth, and I always had the illusion that I had been sold.

"Tsk, I'm afraid I feel guilty about Old Chen. I whispered my mouth, and Chen Ming smiled and patted me on the back.

"These two are my nephews, and the family has been doing a bad business recently, and now they have come to join me. I don't have any skills, old man, so I want them to learn a craft, no, I think of you Hua Gu. ”

Chen Yongtai is still very capable of fooling people when he puts on a smile, and I am going to be moved by this guy's words.

It's just, who is Hua Gu?

Miao Jiang's?

I restrained the glint in my eyes and smiled like I was stupid.

And I don't have to worry about sinking, I was originally a businessman who walked the society, and my ability to pretend to be stupid was so powerful that even I was ashamed of myself.

A few of us stood at the gate and chatted with the two villagers for a while, and I felt that Chen Yongtai's patience was running out.

It seems that these people are really cautious, and even acquaintances don't believe it easily.

It wasn't until five minutes later that a little boy dressed in a plaid shirt came running from the village, muttering something in the ear of one of the men, and then the two men sent the child away and whispered a few more words, and then one of the younger smiling men opened the door and let us in.

As soon as Fang entered the village, I couldn't help but straighten my back.

My intuition tells me that there are Gu worms in this village. In fact, I didn't have much contact with Gu worms, and the most direct thing was the insects that Xiaohong put on the back of my hand when I went to Yulan Tower for the first time.

I still remember the hairy feeling at the time, after all, it happened not so long ago.

And now I'm not only uncomfortable, but I'm also having trouble concentrating.

Maybe under the ground I stepped on, there were Gu worms.

Thinking like this, my body trembled suddenly, and I happened to be seen by Chen Chong, who was walking behind. The dumb man didn't know what he meant, and the swarthy palm bigger than my face suddenly slapped on my back.

"Smack!!", deafening.

At the same time, the muscles in my back shook, and I only felt a real pain.

"What's wrong?"

The black-skinned man who had led us into the village turned back in surprise, apparently also startled by the sudden noise, and I noticed that his right hand was attached to a sickle hanging from the waistband of his trousers.

I turned my head and glared at Chen Chong fiercely, the mute man was still a coffin face, looking at me without any expression, without any explanation.

Seems to pump him, really.

"Hahaha, it's okay, children like to have fun, and they have a good relationship. Isn't it Ah Chong?"

Chen Yongtai reacted the fastest, touched his chin and laughed alone, saying as if it was true.

Grandma's, who has a good relationship with this piece of wood?

I tugged at the corners of my mouth and squeezed out a "good relationship" smile, and my back still hurts hotly.

However, when I was about to stand on Chen Ming's side, Chen Chong inexplicably grabbed my shoulder, and this thing was very powerful, I couldn't move for a while, so I could only pestle straight on his side.

From the front, he did put one hand on my shoulder very casually, but from my point of view, it was actually the four fingers of the thing that were tightly clasped around my shoulder, and the thumb hung there.

The dumb action completely annoyed me, but just when I couldn't help but want to have a seizure, this thing actually used his thumb to write and draw on my shoulder, and I immediately lost my anger and turned downstairs to his waist.

Forgive me for being short, and I can only touch his waist when I wrap my arms around.

Chen Ming looked at my completely different transformation in surprise, and I winked at him and motioned for a while.

Because the words Chen Chong wrote on my shoulder were, "Be careful of Gu poison."

I know that someone must have played a trick on me just now. But it's not clear what the reason is, but what surprised me the most was that Chen Chong actually felt it!

Look at the way he looks, and he managed to stop it!!

The secret of this person is directly proportional to Chen Yongtai's background!

I couldn't calm down for a long time, and I couldn't wait to know the secret of Chen Chong's body, but this person always didn't meet my sight, so I didn't have a chance to ask.

It wasn't until I saw the eldest sister named Hua Gu that I temporarily stopped thinking about it.

This woman was different from the women I had seen in the village, with big fashionable waves dyed with the most fashionable chocolate color of the day, and a cluster of bright red at the ends of her hair, which was matched with her orange lipstick and white skin, which made my eyes shine.

It's just that her facial features are deep and three-dimensional, and there are obvious wrinkles at the corners of her eyes and forehead even if she is not smiling, indicating that Hua Gu's age will not be less than forty years old.

Just when I looked at her without a trace, Hua Gu spoke first.

"Long time no see, Brother Yongtai. The little nephew you brought with you seems to be interested in me. ”

Hua Gu's tense face swept over me, and suddenly a cold aura covered me from head to toe. I subconsciously wanted to urge the Haoran righteousness in my body, but Chen Chong helped me again, taking the lead in blocking in front of me.

In an instant, the cold feeling disappeared.

This woman is definitely a master of Miao Jiang's Taoism, on par with the guy I have fought with. I pretended to be dazed and shrank behind Chen Chong, not daring to look at it again.

"Hehe, the children's families have never seen the world, for my sake, don't worry about them. ”

Chen Yongtai's attitude towards her was a little strange, obviously listening to the woman's words were very familiar.

After he finished speaking, Hua Gu's already tense face seemed to darken a little, and she snorted coldly and called the man who led us to arrange a room for a few of us.

Originally, it was for one person to live in a brick house near the mountain at the back of the village. But Chen Yongtai insisted that I sleep in the same room with Chen Chong on the grounds that I was afraid of the dark......

I carried my travel bag on my back, followed Chen Chong into the corner room under Chen Ming's mocking gaze, and ran wildly over 10,000 grass and mud horses in my heart.

Lao Tzu is not afraid of the dark, it's just an excuse given to me by Chen Yongtai's old man!!

However, you can't find a reliable good reason for Mao!

Chen Chong generously put down the big bag he was carrying on his shoulders, turned around and babbled at me, probably meaning that I was being targeted and it was safer to be with him.

"Why? What the hell are you coming from?"

Since I had brought it up, I took the opportunity to ask him, but the big man shook his head in confusion, then pointed to his chest, and then shrugged his shoulders.

"I'm sorry, I don't understand ......"

Chen Chong looked depressed and seemed to be very resentful.

Big brother, I'm also resentful......

The two of us talked like this for a while, and I guessed one by one, and finally figured out that this guy was "born".

"It's like...... Talent?" I asked, lip syncing, after all, the topic is more sensitive. However, Chen Chong shook his head and said no, and then pointed out with his hand, I thought about it for a while, and said tentatively, "It has something to do with Uncle Yongtai?"

This time he nodded excitedly, and I finally got it right at once.

But he couldn't say anything more about it, so I had to give up, and I packed up my backpack and wanted to arrange an unobtrusive talisman array, but Chen Chong said that it would be discovered, and as long as he was there, he wouldn't let any Gu worms in.

I gladly accepted his protection.

Although it sounds a bit inconsistent.
