Chapter 20: The Secret Realm of the Valley (2)
As soon as they saw someone coming, the young men on the sentry immediately became vigilant, and invariably pointed their bows and arrows at the two of them, as if they would shoot them mercilessly if they took one more step forward.
Seeing everyone so cautious, Fang Ling couldn't help but feel a little bad in his heart, if this was really an isolated place, away from the earth's war for three hundred years, how could it be a peaceful and peaceful scene.
However, the situation at this time was completely different from what he thought, and the vigilance and vigilance on the faces of these people were by no means pretentious, which seemed to mean that there was not a peaceful world under the valley.
Xi Ling'er didn't have any fear of the young man's actions, but shouted loudly: "I'm Xi Ling'er, I want to see Grandpa Ge!"
As soon as these words fell, the young men were taken aback, and one of them hurriedly shouted downward, and after a while, the thick wooden door of the village opened, and out of it came a group of young men dressed in animal skins or linen clothes, each wearing a war knife and carrying a bow and arrow. It's just that many of the scabbards of these knives have some rust, which should have been handed down from the elders.
The leader is an old man in Mai in his fifties, his hair is a little gray, but his eyes are clear and bright, although there are a lot of wrinkles on his face, his spirit is very vibrant, it seems that this person is Grandpa Ge in Xi Ling'er's mouth.
As soon as he saw Xi Ling'er, the old man surnamed Ge was immediately overjoyed, and walked over excitedly and said: "Little princess, you are finally back, you haven't seen anyone for half a month, and everyone is worried about death." ”
Hearing the words of the little princess, Fang Ling's heart became more clear, this is likely to be the descendant of the Xi Kingdom, but looking at the people in this cottage waiting for battle, this matter of borrowing troops is not as easy as he imagined.
Xi Ling'er grinned and said, "I got lost outside, and Brother Fang sent me back." ”
Grandpa Ge glanced at Fang Ling at this time, but frowned slightly, and then said to Xi Ling'er: "Little princess, don't stay outside, let's go in first." ”
Xi Ling'er nodded heavily, Fang Ling walked in with everyone, this village is not big, and there are not many wooden houses, there are only about twenty or thirty households, and the number of people is only about a hundred.
It seemed that hearing that Xi Ling'er was sent back by an outsider, many people came out of the house, all looking at Fang Ling carefully, whispering something, because the distance was too far, Fang Ling didn't hear what these people were saying clearly, but what made him a little concerned was that there was some pity and sympathy in the eyes of these people.
It stands to reason that there are outsiders who have entered these three hundred years of isolated land, and there is a lot of curiosity in their eyes, but these are obviously sympathetic expressions, Fang Ling only feels that things seem to be getting more and more strange.
Fang Ling couldn't help but think about it, he and Xi Ling'er had already come to the largest wooden house in the village, where various wooden tables and stools were placed, the shape was very quaint, and some exquisite patterns were carved, and on the walls, there were weapons such as bows, arrows, swords, etc.
As soon as Ge Lao walked in, he instructed a sturdy young man outside: "Ge Yi, go and call Dr. Li over, by the way, ask him to bring a bag of green silk pills by the way." ”
