Zhong Shenxiu didn't dare to let this old man touch him, in case the old man cast some poisonous spells, wouldn't it be miserable.

But Zhong Shenxiu couldn't show too obvious resistance, so Zhong Shenxiu pretended to scratch his back as if he was scratching, and skillfully avoided the old man's grasp.

Seeing the old man's hand stop in the air awkwardly, Zhong Shenxiu smiled: "I don't know if I was contaminated with something unclean in the peach blossom forest just now, and my body is very itchy." ”

The old man's eyes flashed, and he said with concern: "The guest thinks that he has been poisoned by the peach blossom miasma, so quickly swallow this antidote pill to relieve this misfortune." ”

As he spoke, the old man took out an oily pill from his arms, stretched it out in front of Zhong Shenxiu's eyes, and motioned Zhong Shenxiu to eat the elixir quickly.

Zhong Shenxiu smiled on the surface, and his mother sold criticism in his heart.

If I eat your antidote pill, then I will be truly poisoned.

The same cannot be said of it, though.

Therefore, Zhong Shenxiu waved his hand again and again: "My husband is too polite, there is no need to do this, it's just a little itchy, and there are no other abnormalities, I think it should be caused by some pollen, and the forbearance will pass, and there is no need to waste the elixir of the old man." ”

The old man saw that Zhong Shenxiu's will to refuse was very resolute, so he had to give up.

Withdrawing the pill that I didn't know if it was poisoning or antidote, the old man took Zhong Shenxiu to his home.

As he walked, he asked Zhong Shenxiu: "Dare to ask the guests, what year is it outside, how many generations has my Great Qin passed on, is the First Emperor still alive?"

Zhong Shenxiu knew that the old man's memory was stuck in the troubled times at the end of Qin, and he was not surprised by his question.

It's just that Zhong Shenxiu must make a surprised appearance, otherwise it won't be exposed.

Therefore, Zhong Shenxiu said in surprise: "Now that the Sima family of the Great Jin Dynasty is the emperor, the first emperor has long since died, and the Great Qin has also been dead for hundreds of years, doesn't the old man know?"

The old man sighed melancholy and said: "The guests don't know, since the ancestors avoided chaos here at the end of the Qin Dynasty, my people from Peach Blossom Village have never been here for hundreds of years, and no outsiders have ever been here, so they don't know anything about the situation outside, but it makes the guests laugh." ”

Zhong Shenxiu made a look of envy: "It's a blessing for my husband to wait, I think the life in your land is much better than outside." ”

When the old man heard this, he turned his head to look at Zhong Shenxiu and said with a smile: "Is this really how the guests look?"

Zhong Shenxiu nodded: "Since this is the case, although the outside world is not yet in troubled times, but we and other people are also living a difficult life, not only are the harsh taxes and miscellaneous taxes as fierce as tigers, but also some families do not regard us as people, especially in some places in the north, they are plundered by those Hulu, like livestock, and call us Han people two-legged sheep, you can imagine how sad this day is, the day is not safe, life is better than death." ”

The old man said in surprise: "In this way, isn't it better to be in the chaotic era at the end of Qin where our ancestors are?"

Zhong Shenxiu was silent for a while, nodded and said, "That's right." ”

The old man secretly rejoiced in his heart, so very good, so very good.

While the two were talking, they came to the old man's house.

This old man thinks that he has a lot of status in the village, and he can't say that he is still the village head, so his family repair is not small.

The two-hall house, about six or seven houses, with a wooden structure and green tiles, is absolutely unique in the entire Peach Blossom Village.

The old man with the dove staff let Zhong Shenxiu into the house, and while talking to Zhong Shenxiu, he instructed his wife to serve food and wine.

During this time, some other people in the village also came to the old man's house.

It's just that what makes Zhong Shenxiu's heart chill is that although both adults and children look enthusiastic and happy, their eyes are not smart, their eyes barely turn, exuding a sluggish death intent.

Looking at the group of dead ghosts in front of him, Zhong Shenxiu touched the peachwood sword behind him, and then he had a little warmth and confidence.

Afraid of hair!

It's a big deal to flip the table, the power of this seven-star mahogany sword should be able to keep you safe.

Zhong Shenxiu followed something that he didn't know if it was a ghost or a dead man, and thought about how to escape.

In a short time, a seemingly sumptuous banquet was placed.

There is wine, meat, various dishes, fruits, etc., which looks quite good.

When the old man saw that the banquet was ready, he asked everyone to sit down at the table and coughed lightly.

Everyone looked at the old man, only to see the old man holding a glass and saying: "Our Peach Blossom Village has not been connected with the outside world for hundreds of years, and it is the honor and opportunity of our Peach Blossom Village to visit our Peach Blossom Village today, so let us all raise a glass and toast this distinguished guest together." ”

As he spoke, the old man raised his glass, and the rest of the others raised their glasses as well.

Then everyone's eyes turned to Zhong Shenxiu.

Zhong Shenxiu's heart sank.

This old man is trying to force Lao Tzu to drink this wine.

It seems that this wine is definitely not a good thing, and it is mostly a poisonous wine that can control others.

Lao Tzu must not drink, but he has not yet found a way to get out, and it is not the time to turn his face, so he must reveal it with clever words.

Zhong Shenxiu thought for a while, and said apologetically: "Thank you for your kindness, it stands to reason that you will serve good wine, and there is no reason not to drink it in the lower body, but in the lower body suffering from liver disease, the apricot forest holy hand in the city Qu Lang told you to never drink again, otherwise if you get sick again, it will be the medicine stone is hopeless, therefore, please forgive me." ”

With that, Zhong Shenxiu got up and bowed down to apologize.

As soon as Zhong Shenxiu's voice fell, there was silence in the field, and the needle drop could be heard.

After a long time, the old man with the dove cane smiled: "Since the guests are sick, then don't force the guests, then invite the guests to sit down and eat some food." ”

Zhong Shenxiu had to sit down again, he had already rejected the old man twice, Zhong Shenxiu felt that if he refused again, he would tear his face, and the old man would use some tough means.

Although he had a peachwood sword on his body, Zhong Shenxiu did not have the slightest cultivation, so he was not sure whether he could really hold on to it, so he would stabilize the old man first and escape from the peach blossom spring.

Fortunately, Zhong Shenxiu's robe has not been taken off, there is some gap between this robe and linen clothes, as long as you cover your mouth to eat, and leak on the pocket below, no one should be able to find it.

So, Zhong Shenxiu sandwiched a piece of beef in everyone's eyes, put it to his mouth, and then covered it with his other hand, opening his mouth as if he was swallowing, but it actually fell into the pocket below.

Zhong Shenxiu praised while chewing: "This beef is delicious, I haven't eaten such delicious beef for a long time." ”

When the old man saw that Zhong Shenxiu had finally eaten, a touch of joy crossed his eyes.
