"Looking for the village chief" Aunt Li's mind couldn't turn for a while.

Chu Hongchen was also inconvenient to elaborate, after all, Aunt Li was only a peasant woman, and the less she knew about some things, the better, so she just said: "Oh, things are now, so I have some questions I want to ask the village chief." ”

"This can be, but the village chief has been unable to move in the past few years, and he rarely speaks, if he can ask anything, the son can only rely on his own ability."

"Don't worry, Aunt Li, you just have to take me there." Chu Hongchen seemed to be full of confidence.

Aunt Li looked at him with a solemn expression, and after that, she had to nod, she was not at ease to leave the tiger boy alone at home, so she simply hugged him, and the three of them went together.

There was no one on the road, and now every household is afraid to go out, and they are stuffy in the house day and night, except for coming out in the early morning to pick up some vegetables. Aunt Li is an old man in the village, she is very familiar with the village chief's house, and she is very familiar with Chu Hongchen's house, seeing the houses falling backwards and gradually moving away from sight, Chu Hongchen thought that she was about to walk out of the village, Aunt Li in front of her stopped, pointed to a small wooden house only a dozen steps away from here and said: "Look, son, that is our village chief's house." ”

With her fingertips, Chu Hongchen looked away, and really saw a small wooden house, but now the sun is poisoning, and the place of Wu Mo is full of sand, and it is even hotter, and there is no shadow of winter at all. But the village chief's house is so dark that it seems like night falling, if it weren't for the sharp eyes, he really wouldn't have found it.

Maybe the sun can't find it.

Thinking like this, I only heard Aunt Li say with a smile: "Childe, I brought the place, the village chief doesn't like people to disturb, I won't go in, now the evil things are running around, our mother and son have no ability, and the son will not be able to protect us for a while and a half when he goes inside, so we better retire first." After that, he gave him a smile back, holding the tiger boy with his hands empty, and he could only bless his body as a courtesy.

Chu Hongchen felt justified, so he let Aunt Li leave. He approached the cabin alone.

One step, two steps, three steps counted, exactly ten steps. He had come to the door, and looked at the fallen leaves at the door, the village chief must have not cleaned the surroundings of his house for a long time.

I am not in a hurry to go in, and it is very beneficial for me to see what is mysterious outside the house. So Chu Hongchen walked around the wooden house and found that the windows embedded in the house were tightly closed, and the four windows were all exceptions.

Chu Hongchen couldn't help but wonder, could it be that the village chief still couldn't see the light

He wrinkled his good-looking eyebrows, a pair of crescent moon eyes narrowed, and he made a secret signal with Yan Jian in his heart, telling it not to act rashly until he was ready, and he would tell him in his heart when he noticed it. Killing Yan moved lightly, if it wasn't wrapped in a strip of white cloth, I am afraid that it would already be radiant at this moment.

Taking a deep breath, Chu Hongchen seemed to be a little heavy, after all, such an eerie place is not something that everyone wants to go into.

I was about to knock on the door, but I didn't expect an old voice to float out from inside, "Rare guest, there are still people who will come to me, and they have been standing for a long time, why don't they come in?"

The voice is vigorous and powerful, but the hoarse voice still exposes the age, but when he hears Chu Hongchen's ears, he has a cold feeling, which is uncomfortable like a ghost.

What should be faced must be faced.

"Crunch~~~", Chu Hongchen still pushed the door in, and suddenly, a ray of sunlight took the opportunity to shoot in and shine into the house, and the originally dark room suddenly had a straight line of light, which was particularly conspicuous.

At the end of the light are a pair of cloudy and terrible eyes

Frightened, Chu Hongchen was startled, and hurriedly took a step back, he shrunk his neck and didn't dare to look at those eyes.

"What are you doing, close the door quickly" The voice sounded again, as if it came from a mouth under his eyes, but this time there was more anger and rebuke, and he seemed to be afraid of seeing the light.

Being scolded like this, Chu Hongchen swallowed his saliva, he was not afraid of ghosts, but if such a gloomy atmosphere was artificial, it would be easier for people to be timid, and it was very difficult to move in such a dark environment, and it was easy to make people scared.

He moved his body, but he reached out and pushed it lightly, and the door was slowly pushed away, "bang" until it was shut, so that the only light was gone, and the surrounding area was pitch black, which was really unpleasant.

"Are you the village chief of Taoyuan Village" Chu Hongchen shook his fists before asking out loud.

There was silence, and the voice was gone.

Chu Hongchen frowned, and thought about going inside to see what the hell this village chief was doing with such an evil sect.

Just as he was about to take a step, a gloomy voice sounded in his neck, "If you move around, I don't care if you lose arms and legs." ”

Chu Hongchen's eyes widened suddenly, the cells in his whole body were frozen as if he had fallen into a 10,000-year-old ice cellar, he could feel a slight breath on his neck, and suddenly goosebumps stood up from head to toe, he really didn't dare to move, and the foot he had just stepped out of was stopped in mid-air.

The most important thing is that he doesn't know how to face it, turn around, or not look back, thinking about the cloudy eyes he saw just now, he hesitated

But if he doesn't look back, will he stay here for the rest of his life?

Relying on instinct and courage that came out of nowhere, Chu Hongchen still stiffened his body and turned around little by little, and when his body turned at an angle, he fixed his eyes

I saw that the eyes were illuminated by a faint orange-yellow firelight, which was even more terrifying

Chu Hongchen's pupils suddenly dilated, and he gasped, "Wow ghost"

A big man, whose voice can scream so much, is also drunk

Immediately after, Chu Hongchen immediately kicked forward fiercely, and then quickly retreated to protect his body, just thinking about pulling out the Killing Yan Sword to protect his body.

But he heard a "ouch" from the ground, followed by a heavy sound of landing, and the firelight sprinkled on the ground, Chu Hongchen looked over, and it turned out to be an old rusty candlestick.

With the ground rolling down in a circle, it stopped.

Chu Hongchen found that he was also afraid of ghosts, yes, he had followed Bei Chongjing to do things for so many years, but after all, he couldn't learn Bei Chongjing's courage and ruthlessness, as long as he was a normal person like him, under the influence of the surrounding environment, he was naturally afraid.

The faint light of the fire on the candlestick had not yet been extinguished, and a small sound sounded nearby, and Chu Hongchen suddenly remembered that he seemed to have kicked something

What kind of village chief is in this house, I shouldn't have kicked the village chief of Nalaoshzi

Thinking of this, he ran over regardless of the three-seven-twenty-one, picked up the candlestick and shone it on the ground, the orange-yellow light helped the vision of the eyes, and a black shadow came into view, although he couldn't see the face clearly, but judging from the figure, it should be a person.

"You, Who Are You?"

Chu Hongchen frowned and asked loudly, but the sound stopped, and then, the black shadow seemed to stretch out a pair of hands, which should be hands, and then groped for his waist, "I, I'm the village chief, I should ask you, just break into my house, you still kick me, what are you doing, hey, hey, my waist." ”

The latter's desolate scream made Chu Hongchen pouted in embarrassment, damn it, this is really the village chief

had no choice but to give up, Chu Hongchen squatted down, put the candlestick aside, and reached out to help the village chief.

At this moment, I finally saw his appearance clearly, those terrible eyes were really his, muddy, the whites of the eyes and pupils were a little indistinguishable, the hair was like being blown by the wind, like a broom, and it was greasy, and a withered yellow face was covered with terrifying scars, and the clothes were also full of patches, which were even more unbearable than what Aunt Li was wearing.

Chu Hongchen raised his eyebrows and said, "Be careful, where is the chair, I'll help you over." ”

It was pitch black all around, Chu Hongchen had to ask the village chief, only to see the village chief wave his hand, sigh and close his eyes and speak: "Forget it, forget it, I'll go by myself." Take up the menorah and let me come. ”

After that, he brushed Chu Hongchen's hand, covered his waist and carried his back, limped to another dark corner, Chu Hongchen dared to delay, immediately picked up the candlestick and followed his pace, seeing that there were indeed two chairs, and a tea table, he took the opportunity to look around, and the general situation was understood, the wooden house was no different from the housing of those inns, at least it was much more luxurious than Aunt Li's house, and the furniture was everything, but it looked old and old, perhaps because it was roughly not cleaned, and there was too much dust to make it impossible to see the details.

The village chief sat on the chair, and at this moment his face showed some relief, as if he was not so painful after sitting down.

Chu Hongchen also immediately sat on the side and waited for him to speak.

"Who are you?" asked the village chief, who is you, slowly raising his thin finger and pointing at him, closing his eyes.

"I, uh, I'm from out of town, passing through here, and I'm here to ask for something to eat to fill my stomach."

As soon as the words fell, I saw the village chief laughing, as if he was ridiculing Chu Hongchen's words, which made Chu Hongchen very embarrassed

"Hahaha, Taoyuan Village is a barren place, and it is in the Wu Desert, no one comes all year round, there are only these small villages within a radius of 100 miles, no one dares to set foot in ordinary times, you come here to beg for food, then what, by the way, come to travel hahaha, don't laugh at me."

The village chief pointed out the loophole in his words, Chu Hongchen suddenly smiled helplessly, it seems that this village chief has some ability, no, it should be that the matter of Taoyuan Village has made the villagers no longer expect people to come.

"Well, there are some important things that have to set foot here, and I came here to be instructed by the villagers, and I hope the village chief will answer some questions. I don't know if it's easy to do."
