Chapter 406: Humans in Captivity

The next morning, there was a knock on the door of Levi's room early in the morning, and the girl named Amihu came and knocked on the door.

Even they have prepared breakfast, wild vegetables with gruel, which can be said to be the standard version of the recipe for the vast majority of ordinary people in this era.

"Guest, let's go meet the village chief early today, maybe you won't see each other later." Chai Shilang also said.

Li Weihe glanced at each other slightly, as if nothing had happened, as if he were a real traveler.

They didn't say anything about what they had seen or analyzed last night, especially since they weren't quite sure what was going on here.

Soon after, Chai Shilang took Li Wei and them to the village chief's house.

On the surface, the village was so peaceful that he could even see a lot of children playing with bugs on the ground and urinating.

Adults sit on the sidelines chatting like retirees, and some even bring their children to play in the snow together, as if they are in a paradise.

Even in Kyoto, ordinary farmers either go to work in the fields at this point in time, or they are ready to take advantage of the time to find a place to work, and there is no such complacency here.

Along the way, all the people who saw Levi were very surprised, especially when they saw Levi's clothes that were incompatible with this place, they could immediately recognize that Levi was not from here, but came in from outside.

He hadn't even taken a few steps before he saw a large crowd of people who began to gather around and look at him, as if he had seen the rarest thing, and both adults and children were extremely curious.

"Shirou, is this someone from outside?" An adult asked.

"Yes, yes, this is a guest from outside, and I'm going to take him to the village chief's house." Shiba Shirou responded with a smile.

Levi smiled and nodded to the surrounding villagers, not annoyed.

Sure enough, there were no particularly old people in the village, both men and women, and as seen yesterday, it was estimated that all those over 30 years old had been sent away.

In this way, I came to the door of the so-called village chief's house like stars and moons, and there were already people waiting here, probably because I heard that Li Wei, a foreigner, had come here, and even the village chief's family came out directly to wait for Li Wei.

However, what was completely different from what Li Wei thought was that the village chief's family were all standard human beings, not demons, he looked like an amiable old man, and when he saw Li Wei, he immediately said, "Your Excellency is really someone from outside?" Where is it? ”

"God is coming." Levi didn't tell the truth.

"Shendu...... Erlang, hurry up and prepare the banquet and entertain the guests. The village chief hurriedly said to a middle-aged man beside him.

After speaking, he hurriedly invited Li Wei to sit in the courtyard.

This is completely different from what he imagined, last night he and the dog thought, this village chief may most likely be a demon, and then this whole village is his captive pasture. But today, it seems that this village chief is completely an ordinary person.

Levi sat down suspiciously, and it didn't take long to hear the heart-rending cry of a chicken, followed by the smell of blood, and even soon, Levi saw the turbid wine on the table.

"Guest, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, there's nothing in the small place, I can only set up a wine and chicken killing banquet for Your Excellency today." The village chief also made a nondescript salute to Levi, probably arching his hand and bowing slightly.

"Village chief, you still feed the chickens?" Levi thought it was a novelty.

After all, outside, even the Fujiwara family didn't raise chickens, and he hadn't seen a place to raise chickens and ducks after staying in the Overworld for so long, and if there were chickens, they were just raised by some aristocratic families as a tool to report the dawn.

It can be said that the five houses that can be seen everywhere in Shenzhou are rare goods here.

"Yes, we have a lot of chickens here, but aren't there any chickens outside?" The village chief was even puzzled by Levi's question.

Levi shook his head.

"That's really unusual." The village chief was stunned, sighed for a while, and hurriedly asked, "How is Izumo Country?" What has become of God now? Or did Susa's descendants become emperors? What about Ampere's family? ”

The village chief's verification seemed urgent, but the question he asked made Levi's mind fly directly to four hundred years ago.

"The Izumo Kingdom has long since died, and now the Kamito has been occupied by the current head of the Fujiwara family, and the country is named Inazuma. Even after Izumo Province, there was a country called 'Sakura'. Levi went straight back.

"Alas, is Izumo Province really dead?" The old village chief was left with an endless sigh for a moment.

At this time, Levi began to wonder what the situation was, and why the village chief, Hahata, thought of it completely differently.

At this time, the smell of chicken soup even came from the inner courtyard.

"Izumo Province has been dead for almost four hundred years." Levi said directly.

"Well, what about the current emperor? Are you still a descendant of Susa-sama? And what about Ampere now? The village chief continued to ask.

Li Wei explained to the old man in front of him one by one, saying that the Ampei clan has now changed his surname to the Tuyumen clan, and that the current emperor claims to be a descendant of Amaterasu, and there is another thing that Li Wei did not say, they also think that they are descendants of Xu Fu.

But looking at the village chief like this, he definitely doesn't know Xu Fu.

The village chief sighed again, and kept muttering about Susanoo.

"Dare to ask the village chief's origin?" Levi also asked tentatively.

"I'm tired of the guest's confusion just now, but the people of our village are actually the people of the Soga clan who fled here during the Izumo Kingdom, and in order to escape the rule of the Great Snake, we turned our backs on the emperor and the other families and fled here alone, and then slowly became the current village." The village chief sighed.

"Sowo?" Levi suddenly thought of this family in his mind.

The Soga clan, the most famous factor of the Soga family, this family is not a small family, and it can even be said that before the rise of the Fujiwara family, the Soga clan was the largest family in the entire Reedbara, and the rise of the Fujiwara family was by stepping on the Soga family.

During the Izumo Province period, the Soga family was similar to the Prime Minister's family.

And this village chief claimed to be a clansman from the Su I clan who fled to this side, which also had to make Li Wei feel surprised.

"But these are old things, and now we are just a small people in this mountain, we can't take it seriously, we can't take it seriously." The village chief waved his hand again and again, and it could be seen that he was very emotional for a while after hearing Li Wei's information.

Levi touched the dog beside him, and the dog kept analyzing the current information.

Really, it's weird...... Even this seems to have completely overturned the judgment they made yesterday.

"Village Chief, I heard yesterday that there is a mountain god in the village, and every person over the age of thirty has to go with the mountain god to defend against foreign enemies?" Levi asked directly.

"Alas, guest, in fact, there is a deeper secret in this." The village chief looked lamented, "Actually, this is the price of our lineage betraying the emperor, how can there be any mountain god, but our lineage has been cursed, and if we are more than thirty years old, we will be haunted by evil spirits, so in order to avoid affecting others, we made up such a lie to the people in the village." ”

Levi: "??? ”

"Cursed?"

"Yes." The village chief sighed, "We are actually sinners in this world, and we will all be punished like this, so when we reach the age of thirty, we will find a place where no one is there to understand ourselves and avoid harming our families." ”

At this time, there was a knock on the courtyard door, and a voice came: "Father, the chicken soup is here." ”

"Come, come, bring it to the guests." The village chief hurriedly said.

Not long after, a large bowl of chicken soup was served, and the village chief hurriedly presented it to Li Wei and said, "Guest, come and taste it, this is also our thanks." ”

After saying that, he himself poured a small bowl for himself and divided a little bit.

Levi lowered his head and thought at this time, he no longer knew which was true and which was false. According to what the village chief said, it would make sense that he had entered the village and found no demons or fortifications.

But in this case, there will be more doubts.

Seeing the appearance of the village chief drinking the soup, at least he should not have drugged it.

"Thank you to the village elder, but I'll rest for a while, and I'm ready to leave for Ezo Country." Levi also spoke slowly.

"Alas, don't say it, let's eat first." The village chief picked up the wine glass and toasted Li Wei, and drank it with half a bowl of chicken soup.

At this time, the turbid wine at the beginning was no longer enough, and the village chief hurriedly said, "Ono, come and serve wine to the guests." ”

It wasn't long before Levi saw a girl in her early fifteens come over with a jug of wine, fill him with a glass, and then slowly retreat.

"This is the youngest daughter in the contemptible family, Su I Ono, it's a pity that she is twenty-eight years old and has no intention of falling in love with someone." The village chief said to Levi as if he was careless.

Li Wei didn't hear it, so he toasted a glass of wine to the village chief, and then gave some of the chicken to the dog.

The dog gnawed happily, and Li Wei also talked happily with the village chief, staggering cups, like old friends who had not seen each other for many years.

The old village chief also seemed to know everything, and began to talk about the texts handed down from the Izumo Province period, and they were the Soga clan who fled after discovering that the Yaki Orochi had begun to occupy the emperor.

At that time, the Great Snake had not even completely occupied the Izumo Kingdom, and the Sword Saint had not yet been born, so they found out that the situation was not right and fled to this deep mountain and old forest.

Li Wei also explained the later history to the village chief in detail, including the Heian period, to the Taira regime, to the Genji shogunate and the current Inazuma country, and gave the village chief a detailed answer one by one.

The village chief said happily, and for the time being, he planned to stay with Levi for a few days.

Levi didn't shirk and agreed.

In this way, he spent a few days temporarily at the village chief's house, these days the village chief is a good wine and meat hospitality, and the girl named Suga Ono will appear next to Li Wei from time to time, either serving food or pouring wine, and the village chief sighs from time to time that his young daughter in the family has not yet found someone to marry.

Levi just responded as usual, and didn't respond to anything.

On the third day of Levi's arrival, this night, after pretending to be asleep, the dog soon came to Levi's side: "Boss, have we been staying here like this all the time?" ”

Although it has had a good life these days, it has bones and meat every day, and its food is full, but I don't know why I always feel goosebumps, but I always feel that there is a problem when I stay here.

"And the village chief, he seems to have taken a fancy to you, the boss, and wants you to get into trouble, I can feel that their daughter is deliberately approaching you every day these days." The dog continued.

"I understand, this is a very ordinary ploy and I don't need you to warn me." Levi frowned, he began to explore the entire village chief's house through a stand-in in the past two days, and found that there was no problem at all.

There were no dungeons, no bones, and not even traces of demons, just like a normal village chief's house, which even made Levi doubt his previous guesses.

Could it be that this village is really just a village established by the fleeing Su I clan, and after the outbreak of weirdness, it was only because of luck that it was lucky to escape the weirdness in the past twenty years?

As for what ideal township, it may be just a coincidence that the name is renamed?

"Boss, or we ......" The dog made a throat-slitting motion, it always felt that something was not quite right here, but it couldn't think of it, so it decided to strike first.

"No, tomorrow I said I want to leave here, see how people react here, if there is no problem, we will leave directly." Levi made a decision, and he didn't find any problems these days, and as for killing people like dogs considering, Levi didn't think about doing it for the time being.

Of course, there is another means of illusion control, but the illusion that Levi got is similar to him pulling others into a place that he has set up himself, and he can't do it more refined, similar to the level of torturing others without letting people find out.

"Before I leave tomorrow, I'll try to use illusions." Levi said.

In fact, it is also because the village chief has at least treated him well these days, and he is greeted with good wine and meat every day, and he does not treat Levi as an outsider at all, although there is a lot of caution in it, but this is also the reaction that normal people should have, and there is nothing out of the ordinary.

The dog doesn't have too many ideas, it can be a mount at most and then a dog-headed military master.

But tonight, it didn't seem to be very calm.

At night, the door of the room where Levi slept opened, and a figure walked in softly, and saw Levi who seemed to be asleep on the bed, her movements seemed to be more slight, and she slowly came to the bedside, and seemed to begin to loosen her clothes.

The dog didn't dare to say anything, didn't dare to ask anything, could only cover his eyes and pretend to be asleep, or wait for Levi's order, and it immediately turned into a kobold and began to hack all the people here to death.

However, Levi didn't make any moves, and the sound of the soothing rope continued to come, only to see that the slender figure in the darkness was only a light coat, and then gently pulled the quilt and lay down together.

However, she wondered why the people around her were still wrapped in thick clothes even when they were asleep.

When she was about to untie the clothes of the person on the bed, she saw a hollow figure under the thick clothes, like an invisible person.

When she was about to scream, the stand-in covered her mouth, and then two "Yu" words appeared in her pupils.

Illusion activated.
