Chapter 243: I'm Not an Immortal

The door was still made of wood, and with a gentle push I creaked, and the room was pitch black, and I called twice, but no one answered. This reminds me of the horror movies I watched in the past, and I couldn't help but feel a chill, I hurriedly retreated and beckoned Pomegranate to come over, it's good to have someone who is strong and courageous!

After the pomegranate came, I opened the eye of the sky and went to the house again to check to make sure that there was no one, and then turned around and went to another house to check. The architectural style here is very similar to the old courtyard houses, and I am now looking at one of the four houses, and the whole layout is in the shape of a "mouth", the only difference is that there is no courtyard.

As I went to knock on another door, I heard a small noise coming from inside the room, as if something was moving, followed by another inhalation. Seeing that no one came to open the door, I pushed it twice, and the door was locked from the inside, and I called out, "Is there anyone?"

There was still no movement, so I had to turn away, and as soon as I took two steps, I heard a voice from inside the house, although it was so small that ordinary people could not hear it. It was a woman's voice: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." ”

I walked quickly to the door and knocked again: "Please open the door, we are not bad people." There was silence in the room, and after a while a woman's voice came out, "Who are you?" and she seemed to be scared.

Again, I made sure that we weren't bad people, and asked her to open the door, so that the woman could slowly open the door. As soon as Pomegranate and I entered the house, we saw a woman sitting on a chair with a little boy in her arms, the woman holding her seven or eight-year-old child in her arms, and the child's eyes showed an angry look.

Seeing that the woman didn't speak, I had to introduce myself first, and then introduce Pomegranate, of course, I didn't tell her that we were from another planet. The woman told us that she noticed us when we first came, and she had been observing us through the crack in the door, but she didn't know what we were doing, so she didn't dare to open the door, and the family I knocked on the door just now was no longer inhabited, and their whole family was missing, for half a month.

I asked the woman what was going on, so that she didn't have to be nervous, and said slowly, maybe we could help, maybe it would be easier for us to find someone, and besides, I still had my sense to use. When the woman saw that we were very talkative, she probably saw that our faces were not good-looking, and that there was a thick snow on our bodies, and she knew that we had walked a long way, so she said that she wanted to get us something to eat. The woman asked us to sit down and wait, and went to the firewood room to cook our meal.

Soon, the smell of rice came to my nose, and I couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva when I smelled this smell, and I was really hungry all the way! But they actually have rice, which is quite strange, it seems that the way of life of the people here is not much different from that of the ancients.

Soon, the woman brought two bowls of rice, and the woman told us that the only thing we could take out at home was half a catty of rice, and there was no food, so let's settle for a while. The little boy looked at the steaming white rice in our hands, swallowed a mouthful of saliva, just now I heard the woman say that the family can take out this half a catty of rice, I quickly stopped the pomegranate, looking at the appearance of the mother and son, it seems that they have not eaten a full meal for a long time, and they are obviously a little malnourished.

I took the pomegranate rice, put it on the table, and said to the mother and son, "Eat, I have dry food with me." ”

The woman glanced at me gratefully: "The two heroes are really good people, you are empty-handed, how can you have dry food, let's eat it quickly, I'll find a way to borrow some." "Although the woman said so, I know that I am afraid that it is not so easy to borrow, if you borrow it, you will not be hungry like this, besides, if the villagers have more, it is impossible not to take it, it seems that there is a famine here. I casually took out some of the dry food from the space ring, the dried wolf meat, and a bag of rice, and I said to the woman, "Hide this food." ”

I made a casual move, but the frightened pair of mother and son were on the spot, the little boy's mouth was sticking to the rice grains, the chopsticks stayed in the air, staring at me blankly, for a long time, I saw that they did not react, out of politeness, so I called: "Sister-in-law?"

At this time, the woman reacted, hurriedly pulled up the little boy and knelt down, kept kowtowing, and said: "Xie Lu Xie Immortal rescue, Xie Lu Xie Immortal rescue!"

It dawned on me that they might not have seen such a thing as a space ring here, and it was so exciting to see me suddenly make a bag of rice and a dozen catties of wolf meat. I didn't think so much at the time, seeing the current situation of this mother and son, I thought that as long as a person with a conscience would lend a hand, but I didn't expect my actions to be misunderstood as a fairy!

I shook my head and said to the woman: "Sister-in-law, we are not immortals, this ring on my hand is not an ordinary ring, it is the king of rings, also called the space ring, as long as I want, I can fit the whole house into it." Before we came out, we brought enough food, sister-in-law, please rest assured, we have a lot of food here. ”

I don't know if the woman understands, but the little boy is very curious to run over and touch my space ring, I haven't seen a child for a long time, so I took off the space ring and let him play with it, the child's mother reprimanded: "Xiaohu, return it to your uncle, it's really ignorant!"

I smiled and said to the woman: "It's okay, there's nothing to do, let him play, sister-in-law eat quickly, wait for the next meal to be cold." ”

The woman smiled and said to us: "Xie Lu Xie two heroes, let's put these grains here first, the two of you don't have a place to live yet, right?" If you don't dislike it, you might as well stay in the cold house for the time being, and I'll cook for you." After saying that, the woman carried the rice to the firewood room, but her little physique could not be lifted, so I helped her carry the rice into the firewood room.

I asked the woman, "Sister-in-law, is ......it convenient?" We ......"

The woman smiled slightly, and said very happily: "There is nothing inconvenient, there is still a vacant room, I will clean it up later, you two will live in that house, Xiaohu will sleep with me." ”

I clenched my fists and smiled, "In that case, thank you sister-in-law!" The woman smiled and went to cook. This is a very simple house, there are two rooms, the firewood room is outside, it is said to be a firewood house, but in fact it is a small shed, built with thatch. It occurred to me that there were still many things I hadn't asked her about, and I thought I'd wait until dinner to ask.
