By the time Lu Gusong found the house with the red lantern hanging at the door, it was already dark. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info After confirming that this was the only house with a red lantern, Lu Gusong stepped forward and patted the door knocker.

After a while, someone opened the door for Lu Gusong. The door was opened by an old gentleman, who was not tall and thin, with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and the appearance of a scholar. This gentleman's hair is much grayer, but there are not many wrinkles on his face, and he is also very energetic, and he is estimated to be not as old as Mr. Chen.

"Who are you looking for?" the old man looked at Lu Gusong suspiciously and asked.

"Hello, old man, does the village chief of this village live here?" Lu Gusong bowed and asked.

"I am, are you?" the old man pushed his glasses and looked at Lu Gusong carefully.

"Oh, you are the village chief, I heard Aunt Mei say that she wanted to stay here with you, so I came here. Lu Gusong said respectfully.

"Aunt Mei, oh, you mean Professor Zhou. The village chief thought about it and suddenly realized.

Professor Zhou ...... You mean Uncle Fa, that's right, are they there?" Lu Gusong was a little speechless, and he didn't know what identity Zhou Dafa borrowed from, so he could only take advantage of the situation.

"I'm here, oh, the young man came at the right time, we're cooking dinner, you haven't had dinner yet, you just have a meal together." The village chief immediately welcomed Lu Gusong into the door enthusiastically.

"This ...... Then bother. It is estimated that he will have to live in this village chief's house in the next few days, and Lu Gusong will not be hypocritical.

"Don't bother, don't bother, we haven't had young people in this village for a long time, I'm afraid that we can't get used to it in the countryside. Lu Gusong found that after getting acquainted with each other a little, this village chief turned out to be a hospitable person, thinking back to the indifferent faces of those people in the village before, no wonder Zhou Dafa chose to stay here.

The village chief took Lu Gusong to the restaurant, and at this time, Zhou Dafa, Sun Bowen, and Mei Lan were already in the restaurant. After greeting the others, the village chief went to the kitchen to prepare dinner, and the rest of the demon hunters gathered around the dining room.

Watching the village chief close the door and leave, Sun Bowen stood up without saying a word, slowly paced to the door of the restaurant, and leaned on the door with his hands on his chest.

"Okay, now it's up to us, so let's talk about what we found today. Zhou Dafa's polite smiling face before was gone, but he said to everyone seriously. Dongfang Long is not there, so everyone is naturally centered on Zhou Dafa.

Mei Lan spoke first: "I have walked around the village, there are a total of one hundred and forty-two families in this village, but the families are either old people or children, and the people here seem to be very ...... They were all very cold, and I tried to communicate with other people except the village chief's house, but they ignored me, and it seemed that the residents of this village were very xenophobic. ”

"Well, I also found out about this, and I communicated with the village chief in the afternoon. The young people in this village all went out a few years ago, leaving the elderly and children at home waiting for them to return, but they do not come back several times a year, and some have not even returned for several years. In the early years, these fellows were relatively enthusiastic, but in the past few years, they have spent days waiting for their relatives every day and being disappointed every day, and it has gradually become like this. Zhou Dafa nodded at Mei Lan, and then looked at Lu Gusong, "Xiao Song, have you found anything?"

Listening to Zhou Dafa calling himself, Lu Gusong was stunned, Zhou Dafa has been hiding from himself for half a month, and now he is really a little unaccustomed to hearing him call himself like this. But even if he still called himself "Komatsu", his tone no longer had the original enthusiasm, and it sounded very strange.

"What's the matter, Komatsu?" Mei Lan was still very affectionate to Lu Gusong, and when she saw that Lu Gusong was wandering, she hurriedly asked with concern.

"Ah, no...... It's nothing, I'm similar to Aunt Mei's discovery, and nothing else. Lu Gusong thought about it, but still didn't say anything about the dark shadow he encountered in the afternoon.

Zhou Dafa glanced at Lu Gusong and then withdrew his eyes, and said lightly: "Xiao Song only came over in the afternoon, and it is normal that he didn't find anything." Did you get anything out of the blog post?"

"Animals. Sun Bowen, who was leaning against the door, closed his eyes, suddenly opened a slit, and replied coldly.

"What?" Zhou Dafa frowned.

"There are only people in this place, but there is not even a single animal, which is too abnormal. Sun Bowen's tone was not emotional, it seemed that except for the captain, he looked cold to everyone. Somehow, hearing this cold tone, Lu Gusong couldn't help but think of Saya he met not long ago. However, listening to Sun Bowen mention it, Lu Gusong also felt that something was wrong, when he first came, he just felt that this village was too deserted, and now in retrospect, it seems that he didn't even see a dog or a chicken after walking around this afternoon, nor did he hear any animal sounds. It's not normal for this to happen in big cities, let alone in rural areas. Seeing that Zhou Dafa and Mei Lan also frowned, they should have noticed the strangeness of this matter.

At this time, Sun Bowen coughed lightly: "Someone is coming." Then he opened the door and sat down at the table. After a while, the village chief pushed the door and walked in, holding a large tray in his hand: "Oh, I'm sorry, I've kept you waiting for a long time, a few country dishes, so I have to let you settle for a while." ”

Seeing the village chief come in, Zhou Dafa's face was full of smiles again: "If you are there, you will have to bother more these days." ”

Zhou Dafa and the village chief were polite to each other there, but Lu Gusong poked his head out and looked at the dishes on the table, and found that the dishes were still very rich, and there were actually two meat dishes.

Lu Gusong was silent on the surface, but a pimple was raised in his heart. At this time, Sun Bowen on the side opened his mouth and asked Lu Gusong's heart: "Village chief, is this plate of chicken your own chicken?"

"Oh, how can the old man have the energy to raise chickens, these are all bought from the butchers in the town. My wife liked to raise livestock when she was alive, but after she died ten years ago, my family had to buy meat from outside. The village chief smiled and said calmly, and there seemed to be no problem with the answer.

"Bowen, why are you so rude. Zhou Dafa scolded lightly, and then said apologetically to the village chief, "Don't mind the village chief, they, the children in the city, are more interested in things in the countryside." The village chief hurriedly waved his hand and said that it was okay, and then everyone had a meal in the greetings between the two. Everyone had a smile on their face, but they didn't know if there was something hidden behind that smile.
