The mountain road was rugged, Xu Mu walked for a while, and really felt that the right leg made of wooden sticks was a little inconvenient, so he turned around and walked into the nearby jungle, and picked a big black and brown tree.

His right hand was like a knife, his nails popped out like sharp blades, and the trees in front of him were cut into various parts like tofu under his hands, and then quickly assembled into an intricately structured prosthetic.

Xu Mu put it on his lap, then wrapped it in the animal skin given by Ah Yue, stood up and walked a few steps.

"Aside from being a little vulnerable, it's not much of a problem!"

Because he was afraid of people's attention and caused unnecessary trouble, Xu Mu did not make a prosthetic hand.

After packing up his things, Xu Mu continued to walk down the mountain, but because of the delay in making the prosthetic leg, and Xu Mu didn't know the way, by the time he arrived at the village below, it was already completely dark, and the food that Ah Yue gave him had already been eaten by him.

Xu Mu thought about going to the village to ask for directions, and by the way, to see if he could change some food.

When I entered the village, I found that the village was very poor, and most of the houses were thatched houses, muddy walls, and there were traces of damage everywhere, as if they had been hit by something.

Only a few houses in the center have neat brick houses, but the courtyard walls also show signs of damage.

Bang bang!

"Is there anyone at home?"

After Xu Mu entered the village, he knocked on the door of a nearby house and shouted.

There was a slight movement in the room, but unfortunately no one responded.

Xu Mu tried a few more, all of which were in the same situation.

"A stranger came knocking on the door in the middle of the night, and if it were me, I am afraid that the door would not have been opened."

Xu Mu laughed at himself, he was going to give up, go to a random place outside the village to stay for the night, and ask for the way tomorrow before leaving, at this moment, a person who had not knocked on the door in front of him pushed open the door, and a woman in her thirties stuck her head out of it.

"Where are you from? What's the matter? ”

The woman's face was yellow, her clothes were plain, just like the appearance of an ordinary farmer, but her eyes were slightly darkened, and she obviously did not sleep well.

"I'm a foreigner, and I got lost when I went hunting in the mountains, and I want to ask for directions." Xu Mu stood in place and said with a smile.

The woman stretched out her head, looked Xu Mu up and down, and saw that Xu Mu only had one arm, and he was a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy, and her expression suddenly relaxed a lot.

She said: "Go south out of the village, about twenty or thirty miles to Sanxin Town!" ”

"Thank you, big sister!"

"Big sister? Ha ha! You're a funny kid! ”

The woman couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.

"Huh!"

Xu Mu smiled, didn't care about the other party's ridicule, turned around and walked outside the village.

The woman was stunned for a moment, hurried out of the courtyard, chased after him, and stood in front of him.

"You're not going to town now, are you?" The woman was surprised.

"That's right! Any questions? Xu Mu was puzzled.

"Didn't you tell you not to travel at night?"

The woman looked at him incredulously.

"Thank you for your concern! I'm not afraid! ”

Xu Mu smiled, and was about to bypass the other party and continue walking, although he had just arrived in this world, he still had some confidence in his strength.

The woman hurriedly reached out and grabbed his clothes.

"You're really bold! When you really encounter something unclean, it's too late to regret it! Forget it, look at you pathetic! Come and stay at my house! ”

Ignoring Xu Mu's objections, the woman pulled Xu Mu to her yard.

"This ...... All right! ”

Xu Mu wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, forget it, it's better to be stable when he first arrives, anyway, he is not in a hurry.

After being led into the courtyard by the woman, the woman quickly closed the door, as if she was afraid of something.

Xu Mu looked left and right, and found that the woman's house only had a long thatched hut and a small house, with rice straw in the yard, and a small vegetable garden, and crops such as chili peppers and garlic hanging on the walls.

It looks like an ordinary farmhouse.

It looks like an ordinary farmhouse.

At the same time, Xu Mu also heard a slight breathing sound in the house, there should still be someone.

"Have you eaten?" The woman asked, smiling.

"Nope!"

Xu Mu shook his head, just Ah Yue's bit of jerky was not enough for him to stuff his teeth.

"Go to the house, I'll serve you some food!"

"Thank you!"

"You're so polite!"

The woman smiled and entered the hut on the side, while Xu Mu entered the big house, and saw the scene in the house clearly by the light inside.

There were two small cubicles, one large and one small, the larger one was supposed to be a woman's room, and there was a large bed in it, and a boy of seven or eight years old was sleeping sweetly.

In the small room on the other side, there are a lot of sundries.

There were only two large tables in the hall, one was an offering table, on which were placed several rows, including father, mother, and husband, and it was clear that the woman was a widow.

Fortunately, Xu Mu did not make a prosthetic hand, otherwise the other party might not dare to let him enter the house because he had sound limbs.

The other was the dining table, the surface was blackened, and there were several small stools around it, and Xu Mu sat down on one of them.

Soon, the woman brought food, a large bowl of coarse bran rice, and half a bowl of pickled pickles.

"That's all, don't dislike it!"

The woman put the bowl down and said.

"It's already good! Thanks a lot! ”

Xu Mu smiled and picked up the rice bowl and ate it.

The rice is really not delicious, but Xu Mu is not a delicate person, he ate it in three or two clicks, and expressed his gratitude again.

The woman cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, cleaned up the utility room on the side, and made a place for Xu Mu to sleep.

"If you hear anything at night, don't come out to check it, you know?"

After settling down Xu Mu, the woman reminded her again, and then went back to the room to rest.

Xu Mu thought of the dilapidated courtyard walls and guessed whether the two would be related, but he didn't mean to explore.

Again, if you're a newcomer, don't ask for trouble.

Xu Mu lay on the hard wooden bed, closed his eyes to recuperate, and thought about the next road.

First of all, it is natural to go to the city, first understand the specific situation of this world, and then find a way to resume cultivation and leave here.

There is no aura in this world, no matter how strong his physique is, there will be a time when his life will end, so he must leave as soon as possible, and there are still three people who are in the refining god ding, he can't leave it alone, it's okay in a short time, and people will die after a long time.

Time passed imperceptibly in his thoughts, and soon it was late at night, and judging by his breathing, the woman was completely asleep.

Knock knock!

A dull sound of footsteps came from outside the village, and then the footsteps came closer and closer, and stopped when they reached the woman's door.

Xu Mu slowly opened his eyes and said helplessly: "It can't be such a coincidence, right?" ”

Boom!

The fragile courtyard wall was violently crushed by the unknown creature, and then the scaffolding in the vegetable garden was trampled to pieces.

The woman had obviously woken up, but she didn't make a movement, and Xu Mu sensed her pounding heart and trembling body with her sharp sense of hearing.

At the same time, there was a whining sound, as if someone was covering his mouth, Xu Mu guessed that it should be the child next to the woman.

It is impossible for the people nearby to not understand such a big movement, but it is quiet and strange.

Boom!

The door to the hall was pushed open by a critical blow, and the unknown creature stepped inside, hesitated, and walked towards the room where the woman was.

Xu Mu's eyes flickered.

Is it intentional? Or is it really a coincidence?
