Chapter 35: The Town of Wood

"Since you are a member of the town, then why are the two of you being hunted down by that big man and no one is coming?" On the way to the town, Yue Ling kept chatting with the two siblings.

"That's right. Eli replied. "My brother and sister have been fatherless and motherless since they were children, and they have survived since they were all supported by the people in the town. Of course, we are not the kind of people who only reach out for food, and in my spare time, I will take my sister to the mountains to collect medicine in exchange for money to support myself. Although the town was harassed by wicked people because of my sister, and there were voices in the town that wanted to drive us away, most of the townspeople agreed that we would stay, and fought against the greedy wicked. This morning, as usual, I took my sister to the nearby mountains to collect medicine, and I happened to meet the terrible big man and the crackling heart beast. You've fought with him, and you know he's not a messy lord. Even if we can get back to the town in time, it will only affect the people of the town. So, we ran in the opposite direction to the town, and luckily we were able to survive by meeting you. ”

"I see. Yue Ling, who had a similar experience, sighed a little. "You are as unfortunate as I am, and as fortunate as I am!"

"Oh, sister, have you also experienced this?" With a common topic, even Mu'er, who was a little shy, began to make love for Yue Ling.

"Well, ah, although God has forsaken us, we can't give up on ourselves!" said Moon Ling to the two children with a smile.

Xiao Sheng and the others listened quietly on the sidelines until they met the townspeople who had come to look for the two siblings who had been gone for a long time.

The leader was a middle-aged man, although he was not as old as the village chief of Fallen Heart Village, the maturity and stability on his face were no less than that of the old village chief.

"You two brothers and sisters, are you okay!" As soon as he saw Ai Li and Mu'er who had returned with Xiao Sheng, a little kindness could be seen on the grim face of the middle-aged man.

"Well, Mayor Tielin. "It seems that Eli has a good impression of the mayor. "Thanks to these good Samaritans who saved us, otherwise, the plot of those wicked people would have succeeded!"

"Really?" Mayor Tielin turned to Xiao Sheng and showed a stiff smile, "Thank you so much!"

"It seems that this mayor is not usually good at laughing......" Seeing the mayor desperately trying to mobilize the muscles of his face, Xiao Sheng couldn't cry or laugh in his heart.

"These are all your heart beasts?" Tie Lin noticed Xi Yan and Xinya next to Xiao Sheng, and couldn't believe it.

Xiao Sheng understood what he meant, and then said, "I seem to be specially favored by the heavens. Although this heart beast is rare, it is an inseparable friend in my life!"

"Heart beast, it's a friend...... "Tie Lin muttered to himself.

In a moment's work, Tie Lin turned to Xiao Sheng and said:

"Don't stand here stupidly, let's go back to town!

The crowd slowly moved in the direction of the towering tree.

After walking for a while, the originally rugged mountain road gradually became smoother, and the dense trees around it gradually became sparse. It seemed that Xiao Sheng and the others were getting closer and closer to that town.

"Finally, it's back. Mu'er's weak voice sounded over Eli's shoulder.

Sure enough, not far away, a huge wooden sign hung between two big trees at the entrance of the town, and the wooden sign was carved with the three big characters of "Wood Town". The wooden plaque looks a bit old, as there are many dead vines clinging to the wooden plaque, and the carved crevices are stuffed with ash. Behind the wooden signs, there are neat rows of wooden houses and staggered streets.

"Welcome to the Town of Wood!" Entering the town and coming to a spacious hall in the center of the town, Mayor Tielin began to entertain Xiao Sheng and his party.

"I wonder where you're from?" finished making the tea, Tie Lin put his hand on the saucer, ready to taste the tea.

"I'm from Heartfall Village. Yue Ling said first. "Speaking of which, I haven't heard of your origin, Lord Xiao Sheng!"

"Me?" Xiao Sheng's teacup shook for a moment, and the tea in his mouth almost squirted out. Do you want to tell the moon spirits that they are from 10,000 years later?

Xinya looked at Xiao Sheng at this time, it knew that Xiao Sheng would not be able to tell the truth, but it didn't seem easy to make up a reason.

"This ...... Before I went out, someone specifically told me that I didn't want to reveal my origins, so I can't tell you, I hope you can understand. Xiao Sheng smiled awkwardly and found a reason to mess around.

"Hahaha, since Xiao Shengxiaoyou, you don't want to say it, then I won't be reluctant. We'll prepare a feast later, and I'll give you a look at your faces, and after the feast, I'll take you on a tour of the town. This is also the rule that has always been used by the town of wood to welcome foreign guests. Tie Lin gave a detailed introduction to the next activities.

"Thank you so much for your hospitality!" Xiao Sheng bowed to Tie Lin and thanked him.

"Please move to the dining room. Tie Lin led the way in front, and Xiao Sheng and the others followed behind.

"That's right, Mayor Tielin. Xiao Sheng suddenly had a whim and asked, "I wonder if you have a heart beast?"

Tie Lin's even pace suddenly paused, but he immediately returned to his original state. He turned his head, his serious face seemed to be a little nervous, and said, "Of course, as the head of a town, without the power of the heart beast, how can you protect the people in the town!"

"Oh?" Xiao Sheng was a little surprised, after all, Tie Lin had made no secret of his envy for himself, and Xiao Sheng thought that the mayor of the town had such a reaction because he didn't have a heart beast. "Then why isn't it with you?"

"It's sleeping, so it's inconvenient to disturb it at this time. Tielin explained.

"Sleep?" Although Xiao Sheng felt a little strange, he didn't delve into it.

Next, Xiao Sheng and the others had a feast. On the way, in order to satisfy their hunger, they had to nibble on the unpalatable wild fruits, and when they were lucky, they could even eat the burnt game. But now, with the dream meal in front of him, Xiao Sheng really couldn't suppress the impulse in his heart.

Seeing Xiao Sheng's stunned appearance, not only did Yue Ling endure not laughing, but even the iron-like mayor of Tielin showed surprise on his face, and the smile on his face became more natural.

"This is a banquet for my guests, thank you so much for saving your life. If there's anything you don't expect, please forgive me!" said Tielin.

"Very good!" Xiao Sheng shouted without hesitation, it seemed that he had been starved these days.

However, Xiao Sheng was not the only one who was excited, even Xin Ya, who was a heart beast, was gearing up and ready to do a big job. The Heart Beast could have avoided eating, but it seems that it likes the feeling of eating.

"You're welcome!" Finally, Xiao Sheng couldn't resist the temptation of food, and marched towards them after saying hello.

Yue Ling and Xi Yan looked helplessly at Xiao Sheng and Xinya gobbling up. These two foodies!

"Big brother, what's wrong with him?" Mu'er asked weakly, looking as if she was frightened by Xiao Sheng's appearance. Also, the wolf-like appearance is indeed easy to scare children.

"It's nothing, it's just hungry. Yue Ling reluctantly patted Mu'er's head and explained.

After the meal, the wind swept away.

Tie Lin slightly closed his mouth that was open in surprise, and said, "Since everyone has eaten and drunk enough, let's go visit the town!"

"Well, let's go!" Xiao Sheng touched his round belly and said.

Xiao Sheng and his two siblings, Ai Li, under the leadership of Tie Lin, walked towards the streets of the town.
