Chapter 6 White Cloth

"Don't be too vocal just yet." Xu Zhi said in a deep voice, "We have just arrived here, so we should secretly find out the situation before we can make any plans."

"But what do she mean by those rules?" Yan Zhilan frowned and asked.

Although the old woman was a mortal no matter how she looked at it, her tone was too cold, which made everyone feel extremely uncomfortable from the bottom of their hearts.

Xu Zhi muttered: "The so-called rules are close to the way, there are many places where the heavens and all the worlds manifest the Dao, and they will evolve into all kinds of strange rules, if you are not careful, you will violate the rules, and the end will be very miserable."

"Of course, it remains to be seen whether what the old woman said just now is the same thing, but in any case, it's better not to offend it for the time being."

Everyone had no experience in dealing with this matter, but nodded frequently, agreeing with Xu Zhi's idea.

Although at this time, she could use the Duobao Pavilion waiter to throw stones to ask for directions, but before she reached a desperate situation, Xu Zhi naturally disdained it, of course, if it was time to do it, she would not hesitate for a moment.

Don't forget, Xu Zhi was one of the few great cultivators who could compete with Tang Yuan in his previous life, cultivating the Dao Monarch Rank on his own, and acting closer to the Demon Dao.

It's the existence of the Disaster Girl!

Several people were relatively silent, and at the same time sat in the east room to meditate on luck, and after about half an hour, there was a knock on the door, and everyone stopped.

Xu Zhi came to the door and opened the mahogany door, and the old woman stood in front of the door with kind eyes, "Dinner is ready, do you want to go to the old woman's place to have a bite, or will I bring it to you?"

Xu Zhi thought for a while and said, "Where do you dare to bother your mother-in-law to send it, let's go to your house to eat, but I don't know if it's convenient?"

The old woman smiled and said, "The boy is not there at home, only me and the two men are there, where is the trouble to talk about, but the family can be more lively, and the old woman is too late to be happy."

"But, ...... kid," Xu Zhi asked tentatively.

The old woman coughed, but still full of enthusiasm and said, "It's just a country baby, and it's not enlightened yet, I'm afraid that they will collide with a few distinguished guests."

"Unpleasant things happened before, and then this rule was set, so you just don't have to worry too much about the two guys in my family if they don't exist."

After Xu Zhi promised not to talk to the child, the old woman showed that slightly frightened smile again and led a few people outside.

The old woman's house was next to the pine and cypress tree, and it was also a slightly dilapidated thatched house.

In front of the vermilion gate, two children wrapped in pink makeup and jade were looking at Xu Zhi and his party curiously, but when Xu Zhi looked back, the two little ones ran away in an instant.

The old woman snorted, "Whoever let you out, go back to the house!"

Until the whole meal was over, Xu Zhi never saw the two little dolls again.

Although the old woman's house looked very simple, the dinner in the evening was very rich, chicken, fish, duck eggs, and even a dish of pork.

What's even more strange is that before eating, the old woman actually folded her hands and prayed silently.

Xu Zhi asked her curiously if she had any beliefs, but the old woman just smiled strangely and said, "It's just asking for peace of mind."

Under Xu Zhi's reminder, everyone was just pretending, and they didn't really let the food go down.

Even so, the meal was eaten for half an hour, and if nothing else was considered, the old woman made a very hospitable gesture and was very welcoming.

Xu Zhi kept knocking on the side, asking for information about the village, but the old woman pursed her lips and smiled whenever she talked about the key point, and did not continue.

After a meal, Xu Zhi only knew that the name of this village was Nanhe Village, and its name came from the small river where a few people met just now, named Nanhe.

There are less than 50 families in the whole village, and they all live by fishing and hunting on weekdays, and occasionally rely on fish catches and passing merchant ships to trade some daily necessities, living a primitive life almost like a male hunter and a female weaver.

The most important facilities in the village are the four large stoves that are located in the corner of the village, which have been burning all the time, and it is thanks to them that the fog around the village has been slightly dispelled.

But there were two remaining rules, but the old woman refused to explain them anyway, but just smiled and instructed Xu Zhi and others to abide by them firmly.

Seeing that no matter how much they asked, it was fruitless, Xu Zhi and the others saw that it was getting late, so they said goodbye to the old woman and walked to their temporary residence.

But when they first saw their small grass hut, they suddenly found that there was a figure running out of the yard very quickly, even Xu Zhi couldn't see its face clearly, and its vigor was not at all something that an ordinary person could achieve.

Guo Sangsang just wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by Xu Zhi, "It's almost night, don't act alone."

In this regard, Xu Zhi has the true inheritance of Tang Yuan, and without the strength to crush him, he will never act recklessly, and he will never have those dementia behaviors that make people vomit blood.

"Let's take a look in the room, did she leave anything behind?"

Xu Zhi cautiously checked the surroundings of the courtyard gate and found that there was nothing unusual except for some messy footprints.

Everyone entered the house and began to search carefully, and finally, Yan Zhilan suddenly shouted, "There is something here!"

Xu Zhi and the others walked over, but found that it was actually a white cloth, Yan Zhilan spread out the white cloth, and there were a few lines of red words written on it.

Be sure to get out, quickly, as soon as possible!

Don't eat meat, don't drink the water handed by the old woman!

The water in the well is the only thing that can be drunk.

Put out the fire extinguisher, run to the South River, and you can save yourself!

Most importantly, remember what you are now and remember who you are!

Xu Zhi and the others just wanted to carefully study what these lines meant, when they suddenly felt a chill down their backs, and when they looked up again, they found that the old woman was standing at the door at some point.

I saw the old woman staring at everyone with gloomy eyes, and said in a low and hoarse voice, "You...... What are you doing?"

Xu Zhi reacted the fastest, sat on the white cloth quietly, and said casually: "We are discussing what to use to repay your kindness to your mother-in-law."

The old lady was still staring at Xu Zhi, "Old lady Li was already crazy before she died, if you see the strange words she left, don't take it seriously so as not to scare yourself."

Xu Zhi snorted and said, "We haven't seen anything, don't worry about the old man."

"That's good!" The old woman suddenly changed her face, the corners of her mouth pulled up, revealing a kind smile, "Old woman, I see that you have a lot of eyes, and you still say that you can't repay it, isn't it out of sight."

Without waiting for Xu Zhi to reply, she said again, "It's not early, our village sleeps well at night, if you have nothing to do, you should rest early."

With that, he turned around and left the place.

After making sure that she was gone, Xu Zhi took out the white cloth, looked at the distorted words, and fell into deep thought.
