Chapter 74: Don't pretend, village chief

was invited into the room, and the spirit stones from before were all placed on the table, and the number was not small at all.

The old man who took the lead in kneeling down just now was the head of this village.

"Guru, please drink water."

After putting it away with the spirit stone, Jun Wuyi picked up the big bowl handed over by the village chief.

After walking for a day, he finally had a cool mouthful, which made him feel a lot more refreshed.

"Master, it's really rude, it's our villagers who are reckless."

"It's nothing, but it looks like I can't leave today, so I'll stay with you for the night."

Jun Wuyi can't take this stick in vain, it's already afternoon, and I don't know if I can find a place to stay overnight after crossing the bridge, so I don't want to continue to move forward, or live honestly.

"Of course you can, not to mention that the master is going to stay for one night, it's just a month, it's a year!" When the village chief laughed, the wrinkles on his face were almost squeezed together.

Seeing that the other party agreed so happily, and then looked at the other village names on the side with this kind of smile.

If it weren't for the fact that they had just returned a lot of spirit stones, Jun Wuyi would really have wondered if these people were trying to do anything with him.

Although he was slightly puzzled, he didn't continue to ask.

In the evening, many people in the village brought food to the village chief's family, mostly meat.

"Okay, Erzhuzi, tell them, don't take it anymore, you can't eat so much." The village chief sat in the courtyard, opposite Jun Wuyi.

There was a table in front of him, which seemed small, but nearly twenty dishes had been put down.

And what is even more surprising is that the village chief actually found someone to dig up his daughter Hong, who had been hiding for more than ten years in the afternoon.

No, something doesn't seem right.

took a bite of the chicken leg broken off by the village chief, the taste seemed to be even more wrong, and a bite made him a little unforgettable.

In a few moments, the two chickens will be in their stomachs.

"No, no, no, village chief, I really can't eat it, so let's leave it at that!" Looking at the other party's gracious and difficult appearance, Jun Wuyi is already holding on.

"Since the master can't eat, let's have some wine, the bed is ready for you, and you can sleep well in a while!"

The village chief had a smile on his face and looked extremely enthusiastic.

"Yes, get some sleep, I'll help you run errands tomorrow." Jun Wuyi stared at the other party, picked up the wine bowl in front of him, and took a sip with a smile.

"Up...... Guru, what do you say? The village chief seemed to be in disbelief of his ears.

"Village chief, do you live alone?"

Jun Wuyi did not answer, but continued to ask rhetorical questions.

"I'm ......" the village chief staggered.

"This is a big meal of fish and meat, but when I came to the village at noon, I found that many fields were dry and dry, and it stands to reason that the harvest in the village is poor today, so I should cut back on food and clothing this summer to cope with the winter, right?"

"......" The village chief didn't say anything, but his eyes were even more flustered.

"My father told me a long time ago that there are only two kinds of people in the family who have daughter red, one is to prepare for his son's future fame, and the other is to prepare for his daughter's future marriage, but from the afternoon to now, you are the only one who is busy in front of me, it seems that your daughter has an accident, right?"

"How would you know?!" The village chief stood up immediately, and when he stared at Jun Wuyi, it was as if he had seen a ghost.

"Nonsense, you bad old man, do you still use a handkerchief like that?"

Jun Wuyi said and stretched out his hand to the clothesline not far away, only to see that in addition to some of the village chief's clothes, there was also an embroidered handkerchief hanging on the hemp rope.

"I see." Seeing this, the village chief nodded.

"Okay, let's talk about something quickly, I'll eat you, if I don't say tomorrow when I cross the bridge, I won't say anything."

Jun Wuyi said as he picked up the sea bowl again, took a sip of it, and grabbed the Luohan bean in front of him and put it in his mouth.

Hearing this, the village chief slowly walked up to Jun Wuyi with a bitter face and sat down, looking like he wanted to die.

"To tell you the truth, a few days ago, a group of bandits came to our place, and they intercepted the clear spring on our mountain as soon as they came, which is the water that our village has been using to survive, but in half a month, nearly half of the land is barren."

"It's no wonder that when I came here before, I found that no one took care of the land in your place when it dried up like that, but no, isn't there a river in front of your village, even if it is muddy, it can still be used to irrigate the wasteland, right?" You are no different from fools.

"That's another thing, the river in front of our village was also muddy, but it wasn't as muddy as it is now, a pound of water and half a pound of mud, it all became like this when those bandits came."

According to the village chief, these two things are most likely the work of those bandits.

"According to you, it's all about the bandits."

"No, the river has become muddy, just because there is a monster in this river, but anyone who wants to cross the bridge, will fall into the river, life and death without a trace, we invited the old Taoist to ask, only need to sacrifice on the ......"

"I see, they say sacrifice, and then you sacrifice your own daughter, right?" Jun Wuyi interrupted him.

"Also...... No, in fact, she went on her own. ”

"Old man, it's easy to get beaten up if you chat like this."

Looking at the way the village chief panted and spoke, even Jun Wuyi's good temper was a little unbearable.

"Master, this bandit and the monster in the river are now two thorns in our village, and we can't help it, so I want to ask you for help."

"No, this place is not far from Nancheng, and it is not very far from our Lingyun Sect, there are so many people in your village, you can ask for help?" Jun Wuyi once again raised the question in his heart.

"It's easy for us to get in and hard to get out, as long as someone wants to get out, those bandits will find out that the names of the villages in our village have not walked out of this mountain in the past few months."

Hearing this, Jun Wuyi's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he asked tentatively: "Then you mean that now I can't cross the bridge, and it's impossible to go back?!" ”

"Theoretically, yes."

Jun is no different: !!

Suddenly, I felt a little uncomfortable, as if I had entered a thief ship, and I wouldn't let me go down when I got up.

"Master, you don't have to help both things, as long as you can help get rid of the bandits, once the clear spring flows on the mountain again, it will be the time for my village to be reborn!" The more the village chief spoke, the more excited he became.

"What about your daughter?"

"All you need is your piggyback, Master, to save me." The village chief immediately bent down and smiled.

"I think you've heard that we monks can't get involved in secular affairs, right?"

This rule is actually not a hard and fast rule, it's just that those monks are too lazy to participate in the mortal world, and they don't want to be contaminated with too much cause and effect, which hinders their cultivation when the time comes.

"I know it's just this ......"

Just as the village chief was about to continue, many villagers outside ran in, looking very urgent.

"Village chief, it's not good, Shan...... The bandits are coming! ”

"What?!" Seeing this, the village chief was shocked, glanced at Jun Wuyi, turned his head and ran out with them.

Jun Wuyi's eyes were full of doubts, and he also ran behind everyone in the direction of the village entrance.

Not far from the entrance of the village, a group of people rode horses, looking like some stragglers, but it was more than enough to deal with the villagers.

The leader was dressed in a red robe and a yellow straw hat, and when he saw the villagers coming out, his eyes were over, and he said loudly: "I am the man who wants to become the king of the bandits!" ”
