Chapter 871: Meat Village
When Mu Xiaofeng came to the south gate of the camp, all the guards surrounded him, and they knelt in front of Mu Xiaofeng one after another, and then hoped that Mu Xiaofeng would not enter the territory of the hegemon.
After all, these people are the guards of the border camp of the hegemon, if Mu Xiaofeng enters the territory of the hegemon, then they will be considered derelict in their duties, and if Qiu Xinchen blames them at that time, I am afraid that they will be killed by the overlord.
When Mu Xiaofeng saw these guards begging for mercy, he also softened his heart, but if they didn't enter the territory of the hegemon, there was no way to continue to track down Zhang Ping's next road.
At this time, Mu Xiaofeng had an idea, he turned around and smiled at the guards in the camp, he told these people in the camp that they couldn't stop them from entering the territory of the overlord, since they were afraid of the overlord's punishment, it was better to go to the capital of Heguo, as long as they reported their names, someone would naturally take them in.
Mu Xiaofeng knew that the war against Kawash would be even more difficult, so he didn't want them to be consumed before the official war with Kawash.
When these guards heard Mu Xiaofeng say this, they hurriedly kowtowed and thanked them, and then they left the border one after another, camped, and fled in the direction of the capital of Heguo.
Seeing that the camp was now empty, Mu Xiaofeng, Zhang Wenyu and the Wind Tiger inquired about the situation of the surrounding refugees in this area.
But there are too many refugees around, and there are not a few children like Zhang Ping, who are three or four years old, and they have asked all the people around them, but they have not heard from Zhang Ping.
So the three of them decided to settle down in a nearby village, which ran for several days, and their bodies were also tired, so Mu Xiaofeng planned to rest for a night first and talk about it tomorrow.
Soon Mu Xiaofeng and the three of them found a nearby village, this village looked small and dilapidated, the people who should live here were very poor, and the villagers in it looked skinny.
When the three of them arrived at the village, they inquired about whether there was a post station in the village where they could rest.
But when these villagers heard Mu Xiaofeng and them ask, they cast a strange look, and then these villagers showed a smile, as if they had seen a race that they had never seen before.
These villagers told Mu Xiaofeng that they did have a post station in the middle of the village, but this post station was also very dilapidated, and if Mu Xiaofeng didn't dislike it, they could go and have a look.
When the Wind Tiger heard the villagers say this, he was about to turn around and leave, he didn't want to stay in this shabby place.
At this time, these villagers immediately stopped the Wind Tiger, and they said that although this post station was very broken, there was only this post station within a radius of dozens of miles.
Mo Xiaofeng glanced at the Wind Tiger at this time, he touched the Wind Tiger's head, and then told him that he was not picky now, and that they should hurry up and rest well, and then go to find Zhang Ping's whereabouts.
So the three of them thanked the surrounding villagers, and then walked towards the post station, they didn't walk long, and sure enough, they found a post house.
It's just that this post station is too broken, there are a lot of cracks in the wall, and even the roof is broken.
So Mu Xiaofeng and Zhang Wenyu pushed the door and walked into the post station, the lights inside the post station were very dim, and there was no way to see if there were still people in this post station.
So Mu Xiaofeng shouted in the post station with his throat in his voice: "Is there anyone? Is there anyone here, please? We needed a room to rest. ”
Mu Xiaofeng shouted for a long time and didn't hear anyone respond, and just when they wanted to turn around and leave, they suddenly found an old woman standing behind them.
Mu Xiaofeng was taken aback by this old woman, but the old woman smiled and nodded to the three of them, and then said: "Hello guest officers, my old woman just came back from buying something outside, so I didn't entertain you in time and treat you, officials forgive me." ”
Mu Xiaofeng looked at the basket in the old woman's hand at this time, there were only some simple vegetables in this basket, it seemed that they couldn't enjoy any food here tonight.
Especially the Wind Tiger, when he saw that there was not a single piece of meat in this basket, he snorted coldly, then turned his head around, and muttered to himself, "What kind of broken place is this?" Why don't we even have a little meat, why don't we change places? ”
So after the Wind Tiger finished speaking, he turned his head and wanted to walk towards the door, but the old woman reached out to stop the Wind Tiger at this time, he showed a smile to the Wind Tiger, and then said: "Don't worry, this guest officer, although there is no meat in my wife's basket, but we have it in the back kitchen, what meat the guest officer wants to eat, I will definitely let you taste our best local venison." ”
Wind Tiger's eyes lit up when he heard the old woman say this, he opened his mouth, and the saliva dripped on the ground.
"Old woman, you are serious, get my venison quickly, I will starve to death long ago."
Seeing that Wind Tiger was so rude, Mu Xiaofeng and Zhang Wenyu first smiled awkwardly at the old woman, and then let the old woman lead them to a guest room where no one was there.
The old woman asked Mu Xiaofeng to rest in the guest room, prepare some food by herself, and bring it to them immediately.
The Tiger of the Wind was walking around the house excitedly at this time, and he was very much looking forward to the venison that the old woman had made for them.
But soon, Mu Xiaofeng felt that there was something wrong with this old woman, obviously this was a dilapidated village, how could this old woman still have such a good thing as venison?
Moreover, this old woman and these villagers were not afraid when they saw the Wind Tiger, it was ordinary people who saw the Wind Tiger, and they must have been so frightened that they knelt on the ground and did not dare to move.
But this old woman was very calm, and when they saw the Wind Tiger leaving, they even dared to stop the Wind Tiger. It's as if they wanted to keep the Wind Tiger here.
But Mu Xiaofeng also knew that with his and Zhang Wenyu's strength, there would definitely be no opponents in this place, even if the old woman wanted to do something to them, he would not be afraid.
It didn't take long for the old woman to come to Mu Xiaofeng's room with a plate of fragrant meat, she put the meat on the table, and then beckoned Mu Xiaofeng and them to eat it quickly.
When the Wind Tiger saw the meat in front of him, he quickly poked his head over, and when he was about to open his mouth to swallow the plate of meat in front of him, he was held down by Zhang Wenyu.
"If you eat like this, how can we eat it?"
I saw that Zhang Wenyu had divided this plate of meat into two halves, and he handed most of them to the Wind Tiger, and he shared the remaining small portion with Mu Xiaofeng.
Mu Xiaofeng and Zhang Wenyu stuffed this meat into their mouths, they tasted the taste of this meat, although the taste of this meat was okay, but Mu Xiaofeng had never tasted such meat.
At this time, Mu Xiaofeng turned his head and glanced at the old woman beside him, only to see that the old woman kept that weird smile at them, Mu Xiaofeng didn't know what this guy was laughing at.
And the Wind Tiger was suddenly stunned at this time, he looked at Mu Xiaofeng and Zhang Wenyu seriously, and then roared loudly: "Mu Xiaofeng, Zhang Wenyu don't eat this thing, there is something wrong with this meat." ”
The two of them were taken aback when they heard the Wind Tiger say this, and they hurriedly spit out the meat in their mouths, the most regrettable thing was that the Wind Tiger reminded a little late, this Mu Xiaofeng and Zhang Wenyu had already eaten a lot of meat.
"Wind Tiger, what did you find? What's wrong with this meat? ”
The old woman hurriedly stepped forward when she heard the Wind Tiger say this, she nodded her head, and then explained: "Don't talk nonsense, this guest officer, this is our best venison, probably because our place is special, you haven't seen this kind of deer, right?" ”
"Nonsense, this is not venison at all, I have eaten this kind of meat, this is human flesh!"
After the Wind Tiger finished speaking, Mu Xiaofeng and Zhang Wenyu immediately knelt on the ground and retched, they slashed their throats with their hands, trying to spit out the meat they had just eaten in their stomachs.
But soon Zhang Wenyu and Wind Tiger felt something strange in their bodies, their bodies were soft, and they seemed to have no strength.
Then Zhang Wenyu and Wind Tiger fell to the ground motionless, and Mu Xiaofeng also guessed that this meat was drugged, but Mu Xiaofeng's own body was invulnerable, and the poison in this meat certainly had no effect on himself, but Mu Xiaofeng wanted to know what tricks this old woman was playing, in fact, he also pretended to be poisoned and fell to the ground.
At this time, the old woman saw Mu Xiaofeng and they all fell to the ground, so she walked in front of Mu Xiaofeng and the others, and continued to maintain the weird smile she had before.
I saw that the old woman first walked to the side of the Wind Tiger, she patted the Wind Tiger's body, and then muttered: "The tiger meat looks good, and I don't know what the meat made by this person and the tiger tastes like." ”
Then the old woman walked to Zhang Wenyu's side, he looked at Zhang Wenyu and felt that he was not interested, after all, Zhang Wenyu was a double-knife shadow man, his figure was still relatively thin, and this one looked like there was no meat.
When the old woman saw Mu Xiaofeng, her eyes lit up, and the old woman walked up to Mu Xiaofeng, pinched Mu Xiaofeng's arm, and then praised: "This young man is good, the meat on his body is firm, and it must be very delicious to cook with his meat." ”
I saw that the old woman took out a short knife from behind her, and he was about to stab at Mu Xiaofeng.
But Mu Xiaofeng suddenly turned around and dodged the old woman's attack, and then he stood up and grabbed the old woman's hand.
"Old woman, we have no grievances with you, why do you want to harm us?"
"What's going on? Why didn't you faint? I saw you eating meat, huh? ”
Mu Xiaofeng smiled slightly at this time, he told the old woman that his body had been tested by the Medicine King and the Poison King, so he had developed a resistance to any poison, and the old woman's little paralysis powder was not a problem for him at all.
When the old woman saw Mu Xiaofeng like this, she was so frightened that she hurriedly begged for mercy, and she said that she was forced by the situation to do so.
Mu Xiaofeng was taken aback when she heard the old woman say this, what happened in the village that would make the old woman do such a cruel thing.
At this time, the old woman sighed, and she told Mu Xiaofeng that since the overlord occupied the south of the beast kingdom, the overlord had moved many villagers to live here, because the overlord knew very well that if such a large territory did not have his own people to live, sooner or later it would not be able to hold it.
But the relocated villagers had a miserable life, they came here with nothing, the overlord did not even give them rations, they had been hungry for several days when they came to this village.
Everyone has no choice but to start living a life of cannibalism, they will kill the travelers in the village, and then divide the flesh of the travelers, and if no one in the village comes, they will have to start killing the villagers.
Mu Xiaofeng also sighed when he heard this old woman say this, then all of this was caused by Qiu Xinchen, if Qiu Xinchen hadn't started the war in the first place, this kind of thing would not have happened.
Then Mu Xiaofeng asked the old woman to hand over the antidote to the paralysis powder, and then he gave the antidote to Zhang Wenyu and Wind Tiger, and then the two people gradually woke up.
When the Wind Tiger woke up, he saw that the old woman immediately bared his teeth, and he stretched out his claws, ready to tear the old woman apart.
Mu Xiaofeng hurriedly stopped the Wind Tiger at this time, and didn't let him kill the old woman, after all, he still had something to ask the old woman.
So Mu Xiaofeng was like an old woman who inquired about Zhang Ping's whereabouts, Mu Xiaofeng was a little worried, Zhang Ping had already been eaten by the people in this village.
But the old woman shook her head after hearing this, and the old woman told Mu Xiaofeng that although the village eats people, it will never eat children, because the children themselves don't have much meat, and they can't feed a few people if they slaughter a child.
So the old woman reassured Mu Xiaofeng that the village would not hurt a child like Zhang Ping, who was only three or four years old, and they had never seen any children come to this village.
So Mu Xiaofeng also decided to let go of this old woman, after all, the other party was also a poor person, when he left the post station with Zhang Wenyu and the Wind Tiger, they found that the entrance of the post station was surrounded by villagers.
