The bell outside interrupted Wang Xiaohu's thoughts, and he couldn't help but stare and listen,

After a while, his face couldn't help but look a little difficult, because in the midst of the bell, he felt a force acting on his soul, although it was faint, but it was there.

"Ah! Don't! I don't want to die! Help!" Suddenly there was a shout outside,

Wang Xiaohu was suddenly startled in his heart, and through the gap in the firewood and grass pile, he saw a young girl, shouting with a desperate face, as if she had been dragged out of the yard by something, holding hands and walking towards the outside of the village.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaohu couldn't help but tighten the firewood knife in his hand and stayed motionless in the haystack.

In the face of unknown dangers, Wang Xiaohu, who basically lost all his strength, hid in the haystack with torment in his heart, his face was ugly, and he seemed to be a little distorted to watch the girl being dragged out of the village.

After a long time, there seemed to be a call in my ears,

Wang Xiaohu's face couldn't help but be a little distorted, gritted his teeth, and said fiercely:

"Hmph, wait! Sooner or later, you monsters will be exterminated!"

The night passed quickly,

The sun rises in the east, the sun shines on the earth, and the sound of all kinds of birds and insects appears in the small village.

Wang Xiaohu quietly left the village when the sky was just dawning, and did not walk to the village until the sky was bright.

Wang Xiaohu returned to the village and found that there were already some early villagers, so he walked to a young man who was feeding cattle with a smile on his face.

When he came closer, Wang Xiaohu asked with a smile, "This big brother! Is this Maverick Village?"

The young man who was feeding the cattle heard the sound and said impatiently:

"What Xiaoniu Village, this is Liujia Village, you are wrong!"

When Wang Xiaohu heard this, his face was full of surprise, and then he said with some anxiety on his face:

"Ah, this big brother, don't lie to me, I heard people say that this is the Little Cow Village!

I'm here to find my distant cousin, his name is Wang Da Niu, have you heard of it?"

Looking at Wang Xiaohu's somewhat anxious look, the young man couldn't help but slow down and said:

"This son, this is really Liujia Village, and the whole village is surnamed Liu, and there is no such person as Wang Daniu!"

When Wang Xiaohu heard the young man's affirmation, he couldn't help but say a little sadly:

"Alas, this time it's hard for me, how can I go back!"

When the young man listened to Wang Xiaohu's words, he couldn't help but have doubts on his face,

Seeing this, Wang Xiaohu continued to explain:

"Alas, I was the son of a wealthy businessman from another place, because my father was sick in bed, and I wanted to see my brother who I hadn't seen for many years before he died, so I asked me to take some people to Xiaoniu Village to find my cousin!"

Speaking of this, he sighed and said:

"It's a pity that I met a group of robbers on the road, who not only snatched everything I carried, but also killed us.

Fortunately, with the help of the nursing home, I was lucky enough to get my life back, but in a panic, I ran away and got lost!

I came here after going around and around, and I thought this was Maverick Village! Who knows?"

After speaking, he shook his head with a lonely face,

The young man listened to Wang Xiaohu's explanation, looked at the clothes on Wang Xiaohu's body, and immediately believed most of it in his heart, so he said with some comfort:

"This son, don't worry, twenty miles away is Montenegro County, you go there and inquire, you will know where the little cow village you are going to is!"

When Wang Xiaohu heard this, he could only nod helplessly and said:

"Well, that's all there is to it!"

After speaking, he looked at the young man in front of him with some embarrassment, and then said with a respectful expression:

"Hehe, I don't know the name of this big brother!"

When the young man heard Wang Xiaohu's respectful question, his face was a little happy, and then he waved his hand and said indifferently:

"Hehe, they are all from the countryside, how can there be any high surnames! Just call me a baby!"

Seeing this, Wang Xiaohu was anxious

busy says:

"Brother Dawa, you see that I haven't eaten for a day or two, can you sell me something to eat!"

After speaking, he took out a piece of broken silver from his arms and put it in front of the eldest baby.

The eldest baby looked at the silver in front of her, nodded with glowing eyes and said:

"Haha, Childe is too polite, what kind of silver do you give!"

But his eyes were straight on the silver,

Seeing this, Wang Xiaohu showed a smile on the corner of his mouth, stuffed the silver into the other party's hand, and said at the same time:

"Alas, how can you not give money, then you won't be eating white food!

And I eat a lot! Wait a minute, don't think I'm eating too much!"

Soon, the big baby with the silver put down the work in his hand and brought Wang Xiaohu to his yard.

Then, shouting into the kitchen:

"Eiko! There's a guest at home, cook more!"

"Hey, okay!" A woman's voice came from inside the kitchen.

Then, the two sat on the bamboo bench in the courtyard and chatted casually, telling some interesting things about themselves.

Suddenly, there was a cry in the distance, crying heartbreakingly, which made people feel sympathy for it.

So, Wang Xiaohu asked with some confusion: "Brother Dawa, what's wrong, why are you crying like this!"

When the eldest baby heard the crying outside and Wang Xiaohu's question, she sighed with a heavy heart:

"Alas, it's not this mandrill that makes a fuss! Yesterday, the youngest daughter of the Lao Kui family was taken away by the mandrill, and the mother-in-law of the Lao Kui family was crying!"

When Wang Xiaohu heard this, he suddenly realized: "I see, no wonder I cried so sadly, it turned out that my daughter was gone!"

Then he asked with a puzzled expression, "Doesn't the county take care of this kind of thing?"

When the eldest baby heard this, she shook her head and said helplessly:

"The county won't take care of a poor village like our Liujia Village, and besides, they can't manage it even if they want to!

No one wants to risk their lives against god-like mandrills!

However, this mandrill is still kind, it only comes once every three months, and it can barely survive this day!"

Speaking of this, the eldest baby lowered her voice and said to Wang Xiaohu:

"I heard that some time ago, in Luogu Village next door, overnight, half of the people in the whole village were missing, and the rest of the people were running and scattering! Now there's only one deserted village left!"

When Wang Xiaohu heard this, his expression was a little dignified, and he suddenly felt that there was something strange here, and he began to be a little accustomed to mandrills eating people.

So he didn't talk about mandrills, but continued to talk about the customs here.

Soon, Dawa's daughter-in-law prepared a meal and beckoned Wang Xiaohu and Dawa to start eating.

After eating, Wang Xiaohu followed the big baby to drive the ox cart to the entrance of the village, the big baby pointed to the ox cart, smiled and said:

"Childe, I'm going to the county to buy some things with my ox cart later, you can just sit in my ox cart, and when you get to the county, you can find someone to inquire about where the little cow village is!"

Seeing this, Wang Xiaohu said with a grateful face: "Haha, thank you so much, Brother Dawa, when you get to the county, I will definitely treat you to a big meal!"

When the eldest baby heard the food, her eyes lit up, and she nodded and said, "Hehe, since Childe said so, then I'm welcome!"

Soon, a few young people came to the entrance of the village, chatted with the eldest baby for a few words, and sat on the ox cart, all of whom looked at Wang Xiaohu with a little different color.

Seeing this, Wang Xiaohu just smiled kindly and didn't speak.

Soon, the personnel arrived,

The eldest baby sat on the ox cart, raised the whip in her hand, and hit the cow's ass with a "snap", while shaking the reins in her hand, and shouting, "Drive!"

Then there was a "squeak" and the ox cart began to move slowly.

At this time, a few people on the ox cart began to come alive.

"Brother Dawa, did someone knock on the door of your house yesterday!" Yes

The man asked aloud.

When the eldest baby heard this, she looked stunned, and said with some surprise:

"Is there a knock on your door?"

The others looked at each other and said, "Well, there was a knock on our door too!"

Wang Xiaohu, who was sitting next to him and listening to them quietly, had a calm face, but there were some doubts in his heart, he obviously only knocked on a few doors yesterday,

At this time, I heard the eldest baby say a little solemnly:

"I guess the old Kui family may have been captured by the mandrill after opening the door!"

When someone heard this, he was surprised and said:

"No, Lao Kui is not confused, he dares to open the door at night, he wants to find death!"

"Yes! Everyone knows that if you can't open the door at night, you will be caught by mandrills when you open the door! Lao Kui is not such a selfless person!"

……

Several people were talking about it, and the eldest baby finally sighed and said, "Maybe, this is fate!"
