During the day, the village regains its first bright greenery.

This time, instead of going back to where they were, they walked out easily along the path ahead. The two of them looked around as they walked.

At the turn of spring and summer, most of the open land in the village was reclaimed, and they walked carefully on the ridges of the rice fields, and only after walking through this large paddy field did they see the sparse thatched houses, and the land in front of each thatched house was also planted with various vegetables.

People are still scarce, and I don't know if it's going out to work, or something else.

Tao Zi and the others walked to the relatively large and luxurious house in the middle. The old man I saw yesterday greeted the door.

Tao Zi pulled Feng Xu forward to salute, the old man nodded, looked at Feng Xu and said, "The young man is recovering quickly, but it's only been one night, and his complexion is so good." ”

Feng Xu thanked him: "Thank you to the old man for taking my brother in." ”

Tao Zi raised his eyebrows, he didn't expect this demon lord to be so polite, Feng Xu glanced at her as if he was aware of it, and quickly turned his head again.

The old man brought the two into the house, made two cups of tea, and then said, "The hut is rough, and there is no good tea, so the two of them laughed." ”

Tao Zi hurriedly said: "Where is it, you are polite." The two of us can have a place to stay, I am already grateful, where dare I ask for more. ”

Feng Xu agreed: "Exactly." ”

The old man nodded: "There are only a dozen families in our village, and we haven't had guests for a long time." Come on, come on, drink tea. ”

Tao Zi picked up the teacup, but only played with it in her hand, and she continued: "We have traveled all the way, and the crops in that field are growing quite well, and I think it will be a bumper harvest year. ”

The old man smiled and said, "That's nature, the young people of our village are all good at tending to the fields, if it weren't for the ......" After saying that, he seemed to suddenly notice the gaffe, so he kept silent.

Tao Zi and Feng Xu glanced at each other, and Feng Xu said, "Can the old man introduce the village?" ”

The old man pondered for a long time before saying, "It's not impossible. Our village is called Hidden Village, and there are not many people in the village, but they live comfortably by tending to the fields. In addition, it is not a foreign affair, and it is even more simple and natural. ”

Tao Zi thought about it, and finally couldn't help asking: "I heard that there was a war here many years ago......?"

"Nonsense!" Before Tao Zi could finish speaking, the old man hurriedly shouted: "Where is there any war, our village has never had Langzhong." ”

Tao Zi regretted his recklessness for a while, and then heard the old man say: "It's not early, I also want to go to the field, you better go back early." ”

Feng Xu and the others had no choice but to leave.

Tao Zi proposed: "Let's go find the Da Zhuang family." ”

"Good. ”

The two didn't know where Da Zhuang's house was, so they had to look for it one by one, but they didn't think about it, almost every house was empty, and many of them were covered with dust. After looking for five or six places, they came across a family where someone was at home.

It was a big man who rushed to the entrance of the village with Da Zhuang yesterday, and when he saw the two of them coming, he hurriedly welcomed the two into the house and said loudly: "This Da Zhuang is really, why do you still let you wear such dirty clothes, you sit down, and wait for me to find two suitable clothes for you." ”

Tao Zi hurriedly got up and said: "Don't bother, Da Zhuang even took care of us, and gave us clothes a long time ago, but we were worried that they would get dirty and damaged, so we were a little reluctant to wear them......"

Then the man sat down and said, "That's the case, it's very polite, and a few clothes are not worth it." ”

Feng Xu asked: "We walked along the way, and found that most of the families were empty, is this going down to the field to work? But my two brothers, coming from the field, did not see anyone in the field. ”

The big man said: "I have gone to war, and I haven't come back yet, and now in the village, but it's just the few people you saw yesterday, and Da Zhuangniang." ”

Tao Zi and Feng Xu were shocked in their hearts, no wonder the ten rooms were empty, but thinking that there were only five or six people left in this village today, the two of them still felt a chill rising up, it was too unusual here.

Tao Zi pondered: "This war is really harmful, this is because it has been many years, is it that no one else has come except for me?"

The big man said: "I want to come to our village where there are any good people, but there were people from outside who wanted to rush in, so we mobilized the strength of the whole village to drive these outsiders away, and this is why there was a war." ”

Tao Zi didn't expect things to be like this, this war was caused by outsiders.

Feng Xu asked, "Why did the people outside come in at the expense of provoking a war?" ”

The big man said angrily: "Naturally, it is because there are treasures in our village. ”

Tao Zi and the others were surprised, things seemed to be getting more and more complicated, and the big man seemed to be aware of his gaffe, and continued: "I see that the two of you don't look like bad people, especially you, little brother, the breath on your body makes me feel a little familiar, and I think our patriarch also felt it, so I took you two in." ”

Tao Zi pointed at himself and asked, "Me?"

The big man said, "It's you." There seems to be a familiar aura about you that I miss so much......"

Tao Zi felt creepy in his heart, he couldn't have been contaminated with something. She didn't want to show her panic, so she blurted out, "Brother, have you ever fought with those outsiders?"

The big man said lightly: "Naturally, I have fought, but I took the first step and returned to the village." Sooner or later, though, they'll come back. ”

Feng Xu looked at Dahan, patted Tao Zi's hand again, and then said to Dahan: "The two of us want to hunt around here, I don't know where to go." ”

The big man said with some melancholy: "It turns out that my best brother is also a hunter, but unfortunately he died outside. Since then, there have been no more hunters in our village. ”

He continued: "If you two want to hunt, there are many hares and roe deer in the back mountain, so you might as well try it." ”

The three of them chatted for a long time, and when they saw that it was not early, Feng Xu offered to leave.

Back at his thatched house, Tao Zi asked, "What do you think of your predecessors?"

Feng Xu hesitated: "There are weirdness everywhere here, these people look simple and loyal, but there is no place on the body that ordinary people should look like." ”

Tao Zi didn't know. That big man didn't even know his age, and last night's self-talk looked like he was crazy, and the village chief was even more silent about the war; the big man he saw today was even more weird, Tao Zi noticed that the corners of his eyebrows were stained with mud yesterday, and now that the night has passed, the two of them haven't washed, hasn't this big man washed either?

Her tired voice said: "Also, that person said that I actually have his familiar breath, senior, you say, will I ......"

Feng Xu said calmly: "It's okay, even if it is contaminated, we and other cultivators have a way to get rid of it." Don't worry nonsense, tomorrow we will go to the back mountain to have a look, if there are some living creatures, we will catch them and eat them directly. ”

Tao Zi gave a grateful "um". Xindao, it seems that these days, this Demon Lord is indeed hungry.

That night, the two of them were unwilling to get out of the area around the hut, but they still found nothing.

When the sun was high, the two people who woke up were already roaring in their stomachs and dizzy. And the pot of vegetables is still the same as the day before yesterday, and the heat has not even dissipated.

Tao Zi had goosebumps all over his body, but he took a deep breath and tried to lift his strength before taking the long bone and following Feng Xu to the back mountain.
