Perhaps the fastest updated novel is located on the border of Qingzhou, a village that is not so wealthy, although Qingzhou, as a fertile land, has always been considered a remote area.
It's just that I don't know why, as soon as Zhao Jiuge entered this village, he always felt that something was not quite right, and he couldn't say what was wrong.
The whole village is built on the mountain, the entrance of the village is an open space, most of those open land is the farmland of each family, not far away can also be a small stream, there is a windmill on the stream, specially used to irrigate the farmland, each family also has some livestock at the door, giving people a sense of peace.
Zhao Jiuge originally planned to ask the family for directions, learn about the situation in the vicinity, and find a place to stay overnight by the way, after a few days of traveling, Zhao Jiuge has not had a serious rest for a long time.
It was only when he entered the village that Zhao Jiuge found that the doors of some homes were closed, and even if the doors were open, there were only some women at home, and then there were half-grown children playing in groups in the village.
Suddenly, a young man in a black brocade robe came to the village, and the women in the village were a little stunned, whether they were temperamental or dressed Zhao Jiuge, they were not like ordinary people, these rural women stared at Zhao Jiuge with blazing eyes, and there were some bold women who had become married, and even threw their eyebrows directly at Zhao Jiuge, which made Zhao Jiuge's horns twitch, and his heart was embarrassed, thinking about the little girls in this remote place were too bold.
This made Zhao Jiuge, who originally wanted to inquire about some news, walk away in fright, where would he dare to enter the wolf pack and throw himself into the net, but he walked all over the village, Zhao Jiuge was not a young man, and the women in those villages, whether old or young Jiuge were like animals, even followed behind Zhao Jiuge, and some of them boldly laughed at Zhao Jiuge from time to time.
Zhao Jiuge frowned slightly, and finally felt that something was not right, that is, there was no young man in this village, all of them were women, could it be a widow's village?
The world is so big, there are no surprises, Zhao Jiuge didn't expect to encounter this kind of thing, if it weren't for the fact that the children who were playing were only a few years old, Zhao Jiuge even suspected that there had never been a man in this village.
Just when Zhao Jiuge was a little puzzled, several figures walked towards Zhao Jiuge, people, the crowded group of women around them made way for the people who came, one old and one young, a boy about ten years old, supporting an old man.
Although the boy is not very old, his dark eyes reveal a sense of intelligence, and he is dressed simply and plainly, although the boy is supporting the old man next to him at this moment, his eyes are only staring at Zhao Jiuge, that kind of look is curious, just like the eyes of other women in the village when they look at Zhao Jiuge.
The old man next to him, with silver white hair, an old complexion, and wrinkled skin, although he was a little old, but he still showed a faint aftermath between his gestures, and he knew that he was the village chief in this village without asking.
Yu had a steward come out, Zhao Jiuge couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, otherwise he would face these women alone, the psychological pressure would be too great, although the old man in front of him is not young, but he is also a man.
After the gray-haired old man approached, Jiu Ge, who had a wary look in his eyes, said to the stranger, "Young man, who are you and what are you doing here?" β
Zhao Jiuge was stunned, obviously an old man didn't welcome him, so after reining in his mood, he said slowly, "I'm just a passerby, but is there something wrong with the village, why is there no man." β
After asking this sentence, Zhao Jiuge stared at this old man with dead eyes, wanting to look strange from his expression, why the whole village was not a man.
"It's none of your business, it's okay for you to leave quickly, outsiders are not welcome in our village. β
To Zhao Jiuge's surprise, the old man didn't have the idea of being polite to him at all, and directly chased away the guest, Zhao Jiuge was stunned all of a sudden, and he couldn't speak for a long time.
Zhao Jiuge was originally a thin-skinned person, and everyone said it so clearly, so he glanced around at the crowd and quietly prepared to leave, curiosity killed the cat, Zhao Jiuge was already a very curious person, and the Zhou women wanted to speak and stopped, and the suspicion in Zhao Jiuge's heart became even heavier.
However, at the moment, Zhao Jiuge's expression did not show anything, but turned around and left indifferently, ready to find an opportunity to find a good understanding of where the young men in this village have gone.
The whole village was gathered here at this moment with hundreds of people, all women, but ranging in age from young to old, down to teens, up to fifty or sixty years old.
The backs of them were Jiu Ge leaving, perhaps because they were afraid of the prestige of the village elder, these women all wanted Jiu Ge to say something, but their lips moved, and the words they wanted to say in their hearts were not said.
After turning around, Zhao Jiuge suddenly released his spiritual power, and concentrated on the whole village, but was surprised to find that there was no spiritual power fluctuation in the entire village, and before, including the old man, they were indeed ordinary people, which made Zhao Jiuge even more incomprehensible, no matter how Zhao Jiuge broke his head, he couldn't think of any reason why the men in a village could not be seen, and the village's own people did not reveal it, thinking about the indifference of the old man in that village, and the fiery eyes of other women, that completely different attitude made Zhao Jiuge a little confusedγ
Zhao Jiuge was preoccupied, slowly walked out of the village, and did not forget to look back at the village when he left the village, and found that those people were still gathered together and had not dispersed for a long time, but Zhao Jiuge no longer cared about what they were talking about, but walked towards the nearby mountain, preparing to find a place to settle down first.
"Old village chief, why don't you let that person stay as a guest, isn't it too rude to drive them away directly. β
When Zhao Jiuge's figure walked away, the boy, who was only about ten years old, raised his neck and asked the pale-headed old man beside him.
As soon as the boy's words came out, many women around him also echoed him, and there had been no guests in the village for a long time, not to mention that he was such a handsome young man, which naturally caused all the women to shout non-stop.
"Bang. β
The noisy voice of the crowd, the old man with pale hair, slapped the crutch in his hand on the ground with a loud noise.
Then the village chief said in a cold voice angrily, "Don't you have a little eyesight, this young man is not an ordinary person, although he tries his best to cover up something, but that momentum alone is not an ordinary person, so I don't want to cause some trouble in vain, after all, you don't want your father and man to not come back, right? β
As soon as the words of the old village chief came out, the women around them suddenly fell silent, their expressions became a little sad, and they were no longer as hot as before, but there was a girl with a diametrically opposite expression, as soon as she heard that the young man was not an ordinary person, the girl suddenly secretly broke away from the crowd and ran out of the village from the path.
