After Ulla's peach calmed down, the three of them continued on their way.

The mountain road twists and turns, as if it is going downhill.

After crossing a small stream, green shrubs replaced the steep stone walls, and even where there were no shrubs, weeds flourished.

The trees here are not very tall, and the gently undulating hills under the sparse trees are covered with green weeds.

Walking in the woods is refreshing, the sun is blocked by the leaves overhead, and there is shade below, but it is still bright.

There is obviously a small path underfoot, probably because there are few people walking, and it is already overgrown with dwarf weeds, but in some places the soil skin is occasionally exposed.

As soon as the tree-lined path turned, there were several thatched huts in front of it. The three of them were first surprised, and even more delighted, there were still people in this quiet mountain forest.

Three thatched huts are built side by side facing the east and west, with a low hill on the east and a path on the west. The grass house is in the middle of a low forest, which has been shaded by greenery.

There is a chicken coop in front of the house, a pig nest is built behind the house, there is a dog shed in the south of the house, and ducks and geese are in the north circle of the house.

There is a bamboo chair in front of the door, and the old woman's chair is made above, and when she sees a guest coming, she looks lonely.

Originally, when there were people coming from the mountains, the residents should have been more sensitive, either surprised or enthusiastic, and even if they ignored them, they should have been vigilant and far away.

And the old woman in front of her had a wooden expression, but she turned a blind eye to the three people of the Alayan Sect who came to the front and did not react at all.

Allah thought he had met a blind man, Ula Tao thought he was deaf, and Alayanzong didn't think so.

The old woman looked like she was in her fifties, her face was a little loose, but she was still kind and kind, she didn't turn her face to look at them, her eyes were staring straight at the oblique in front of her, and her eyes were still bright.

Alayanzong stepped forward to greet him and asked, "How is this aunt?"

When the old woman saw that someone was talking, she looked up and saw a handsome young man with a short sword and a burden standing in front of her, and beside her was a beautiful blonde girl with a scimitar, followed by a handsome young man with hanging arms.

"Nothing!"

replied very abruptly, and the three of them were stunned.

Ula Peach took a step forward, walked closer to the old woman, and leaned over to explain, "Auntie, we are greeting you, and we didn't ask you for anything. ”

The old woman frowned, and her tone was still stiff, "I don't want it, I don't want it." ”

Alayanzong felt that there was a misunderstanding here, so he squatted down, his deep blue eyes were level with the old woman, and said:

"Auntie, what happened to make you so upset?"

The old woman put her hands on her knees, her body was straight, and she changed the wooden tone just now, but her face was full of distrust, "You don't want to search inside the house?"

Alayanzong smiled, "Where did Auntie come from, why are we going to search your house?

The old woman looked them up and down carefully, and sneered, "Bad guys? One by one, they looked at their eyebrows and eyes, their hearts were kind, they wore swords, carried knives, and hung ropes, no matter how they pretended, they didn't look like good people!"

The three of them felt that the old woman was talking about them, and they couldn't help but feel even more strange. Ula Peach also squatted down and explained to the old woman again: "Auntie, have you been robbed by bandits?"

The old concubine straightened up and said: "Bandits? really don't look like bandits, they all look like hungry people, but there are too many people, there are always hundreds of people, and once they pass here, they will have to eat and drink."

"I didn't even have time to speak, and in an instant the chickens, ducks and geese were arrested. The dog, my black dog, barked twice before he was killed by a stick and carried it away.

"The potatoes and rice in the house were instantly gone. Not to mention these robberies, someone went to the back of the house and carried away the dozens of catties of piglets.

"What are these people who aren't bandits? Are you different from them? Oh, you're different, red-faced. ”

Understood, the three of them understood, what the old woman was talking about was a group of homeless people who passed through here, although they didn't burn or kill, but they took away everything the old woman could eat.

The old woman had a prejudice against the three of them, thinking that they were the same people as before.

Alayanzong looked helpless, hesitated for a moment, stood up, took out two gold coins from the money bag, and put them in the old woman's hand.

"Those people are indeed not bandits, just a group of desperately hungry homeless people, forced to survive, robbed Auntie's chickens, ducks, pigs and geese. This money is considered to compensate you for your losses, so accept it. ”

When the old woman saw Alayanzong like this, she said, "It seems that you are indeed not fellow travelers with them. So why compensate them?"

Alayanzong sighed: "They are all poor people, and they are forced to do this. ”

When she heard this, the old woman was a little unhappy, "Poor people? Some of them are brightly dressed, robbed with knives, fat-headed and big-eared, and they don't look like poor people at all." ”

Alayanzong felt that what he had just said was not accurate, and then added: "Even if there are rich people in it, they are all in distress, and they are all fleeing from the plague. ”

"The people who are in distress know that they are in trouble, but why don't those rich people take out the gold coins on their bodies like you?"

"Ah...... Hah!" Alayanzong smiled awkwardly, "There are always some people who are very stingy. ”

"Well, good! The little brother seems to be quite willing to excuse them, but you are a good person. If they want to be like you, I've taken all the things here, and I have no complaints. But their behavior, although they are not bandits, is cleaner than the bandits, which makes the old woman unhappy!"

Although the old woman said this, her face was much better than before, and they were also polite to the Alayan Sect, knowing that the behavior of those people before had nothing to do with them, and she just told them a complaint.

The old woman led the three of them to see the scene of the robbery.

There was only a bunch of weeds left in the kennel, and there was a nest in the weeds that had been crushed, and the black dog from before was no longer visible.

The chicken coop was littered with chicken feathers and droppings, a mess of footprints, and even the fence was rotten.

The place where ducks and geese are raised is even more muddy, with deep footprints, white goose feathers and gray duck feathers stuck to the black mud.

One corner of the pigsty behind the house had collapsed, and there were traces of rolling on the ground, and the pig was unwilling to be captured alive by the gang of homeless people.

The house was even more in disarray, with belongings thrown all over the floor, and corner cabinets searched. The jars and jars had been cleanly controlled, and they had fallen to the ground crookedly, and even two jars were broken, and there were bedding scattered under the bed.

The three of Alayanzong saw the tragic scene inside and outside the house in the old woman's complaints, which was really like a ransack.

The old woman asked the Alayan sect again, "You said that it was because of the plague that the people became like this?"

"Yes, these people are usually good people. ”

"There were indeed quite a few of those people who were coughing, their faces were swollen and red, and they were wheezing so badly that they couldn't breathe. ”

The three of them looked at each other for a moment, and knew in their hearts that some of the homeless people were indeed infected with the plague.
