Chapter 170: Do You Want the Village to Go Back to Before?
"You're wrong."
Mu Xi said with a cold face, "It's not that this village is bad, it's that the people who do evil are too hateful."
I think you managed to grow up because this village wasn't like this a long time ago, right? ”
Otherwise, where would she still be like now, the girl would have died out a long time ago.
Ying Niangzi's eyes lit up, as if she had returned to her childhood, when she was so innocent and carefree.
She muttered: "Yes, my mother's family is also from this village, and although my father and mother have not been the best to me since I was a child, I can still get by."
Since about five or six years ago, the men in my mother-in-law's family and my mother's family have changed, and they have become so scary. ”
"Do you want this village to go back to the way it was?"
Mu Xi's eyes were faint, and he reminded again: "Tell me everything you know, and I will try to help you." ”
"I don't know much, except that one time he was coming back from outside, and he called a meeting of the men of the village.
Since then, our village has changed, women are like ants, in fact, they don't tell women many things.
However, the widow at the entrance of the village, Granny Bai, is an outsider, but she is not close to the other women in our village.
Last time they wanted to take my granddaughter, I begged her, but it didn't work. ”
Ying Niangzi shook her head sadly, "Let me think, let me think, oh yes, they will take girls to the back mountain every time."
Where they enclosed a forbidden land, the men of the village took turns guarding it, and there must be some secret inside. ”
"That ......"
Jun Tong opened his mouth, but was suddenly pulled by Mu Xi's sleeve, he quickly shut up, her fingertips moved, and the enchantment was lifted.
"Does Grandma know how to get to the ancestral hall? My brother and I accidentally got lost, and I bother you to help show us the way. ”
Her tone changed suddenly, and Jun Tong and Ying Niangzi hurriedly realized that someone was coming, and sure enough, ......
In the next second, a slightly trembling figure appeared in front of them, it was an old man, and he slowly walked towards this side with his hands behind his back.
Ying Niangzi was frightened, lowered her head, and at this time, a crisp voice suddenly sounded in her ears.
"Don't be afraid, he doesn't know what we're talking about, you just have to do what doesn't happen and leave the rest to us."
Ying Niangzi's eyes were shocked, but when she looked carefully, she found that Mu Xi's mouth didn't move at all.
But she heard her voice in her ears, indicating that this girl was really capable, she quickly restrained the surprise in her eyes, and looked at the old man casually.
"Li Zheng, these two distinguished guests seem to be lost."
She lowered her eyes timidly, not daring to look at Lizheng's eyes as usual.
Li Zheng glanced at Ying Niangzi deeply, his eyes fell on Mu Xi and Jun Tong, and there were a few wisps of complicated emotions in his eyes.
"Childe, I'll take you to the ancestral hall."
His voice was like a hoarse branch, and his voice was really unpleasant, and it made people's scalp tingle when they heard it.
"Thank you very much."
Jun Zhi nodded to Li Zheng without changing his face, and the two waved goodbye to Ying Niangzi, and Li Zheng led them back.
At this time, it was getting late, and it was dark outside, but fortunately, there was still moonlight sprinkled on the ground, reflecting the shadows of the three people.
It was quiet along the way, the atmosphere was inexplicably a little infiltrating, and Mu Xi's expression was very calm, not like a simple little girl.
When Li Zheng quietly observed Mu Xi for the seventh time, she raised an innocent smile.
"Brother, the moonlight in the countryside at night doesn't seem to be any different from ours?"
"Because we're all under the same sky."
Jun Tong's tacit interface, "Daddy often says that you are bolder than men, if you come out so late as an ordinary girl, I'm afraid you will be scared and cry." ”
"I'm not afraid."
Mu Xi looked innocent, "Besides, I haven't seen anything in the army, I've seen all the dead bodies, what are you afraid of!" ”
Her tone was casual, and the steps in front of her were a little slower, but she quickly regained her composure, as if the mind she had just wandered did not exist.
When they finally arrived at the ancestral hall, Li was sending them to the door, "The things in the house have just been changed."
The two distinguished guests rested first, the countryside is simple, and I hope the two of them will not dislike it. ”
"I don't dislike it."
Mu Xi's friendly smile, that smile was a little dazzling, Li Zheng didn't look up at her, and slowly left the ancestral hall after explaining.
The footsteps were ghost-like, a little scary.
"Something is wrong with him."
Jun Tong came to the conclusion that even if he doesn't have the ability of Mu Xi, his ability to see people is indeed not bad.
"But he's not behind the scenes."
Mu Xi thought, if the person behind the scenes was like this, it would be absolutely impossible to make such a big move.
can only say that there are other people behind the scenes, and she and Jun Tong can't act rashly, once they startle the snake, they will let the tiger return to the mountain.
"Then we'll see what they're going to do!"
Jun Tong narrowed his eyes, the two returned to the house, and Zhang Yue, who had been staying in the corner, finally calmed down.
"Little General, if there is anything that can help, you can send me!"
"You stay here."
Mu Xi explained: "There may be a sorcerer in the village who is not low, although he is not as powerful as me, but as soon as you appear, you may be wiped out directly!" ”
Zhang Yue: ......
He was silent, and now his mind was full of doubts, and he wanted to know the truth more than they did.
But when he touched Jun Tong's warning sight, he could only obediently continue to squat in the corner.
Mu Xi drew a circle in the room, "You can rest next to this collapse tonight, I made an enchantment."
Although they have scruples, I'm afraid that they will jump off the wall in a hurry, and I can still protect you together. ”
"But they'll be suspicious."
Although Jun Tong wanted to do this, firstly, considering her reputation, and secondly, he was worried that those people would be suspicious, so he finally said:
"Xiaoxi, you believe me, I'll go sleep next door."
"Okay."
Mu Xi followed him to the next door, waving an enchantment casually, "If someone breaks in, I'll know."
Rest early, good night! ”
"Well, good!"
Jun Tong's heart is sweet, although she is only out of concern for her friends, Jun Tong is still very satisfied.
After returning to the house, Mu Xi did not sleep, but sat on the bed with his eyes closed and meditated.
Rather than sleeping, meditation will make her recover faster and her spirit will be better.
To Mu Xi's surprise, no one disturbed her all night, and when she finished washing and left the room, Jun Tong also finished washing.
The two of them looked at each other, their eyes were shocked, it seemed..., these people are not stupid.
"Childe, girl, how was your rest last night?"
It was still the widow who showed them the way yesterday, and she was carrying a tray with steamed buns and vegetables on the plate.
"Li Zheng asked me to entertain you well, this is breakfast, you eat slowly, you can call me if you need anything."
"Thank you, Grandma."
Mu Xi raised a grateful smile, and his eyes fell on her wrist and paused.
As if sensing Mu Xi's gaze, she rolled up her sleeves to cover her somewhat reddened wrists.
