Chapter 8 Inquire about the news

In this way, the village chief arranged for the yellow badger at the entrance of the village a very simple hut, which is said to have been a donkey tent in the past, and then the donkey died. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

Only then did the yellow badger discover that the village chief really had a bit of a dark belly, and on the surface he looked kind and enthusiastic, and promised to arrange a place for himself to live, but in fact he was very slammer--he saw with his own eyes that there were several bright empty houses next to the village chief's house, and the old man never mentioned it.

Fortunately, Brother Badger doesn't care about this detail, the caves are used to sleeping, and the thatched hut is naturally nothing.

What's more, he doesn't want to live next door to the village chief, he can't look up and see him down, in front of that dragon's head cane, Brother Badger always has a feeling of discomfort...... And the village chief's family also has a nervous big black dog, prosperous.

As soon as the village chief left, the yellow badger immediately looked around, then quietly closed the door and took out the scales of the snake queen.

It's time to report back to the Snake Queen.

It was still a black mist that gathered into a graceful shadow, and the yellow badger respectfully held the scales, his face was sad, and told the snake queen everything he had heard.

"Your Majesty, the little one found the breath of the eldest young master in Baixi Village...... Some villagers said that a demon was indeed captured by an immortal cultivator a few days ago...... By the way, the villagers have been warned that there may be other demon clans coming to inquire about the news in the near future. So the little one didn't dare to ask more for the time being......"

The shadow of the black mist didn't speak, but his chest rose and fell violently. Even through the scales, the yellow badger can feel the oppression of that head, as if a volcano is about to erupt.

"Check!" After a while, the shadow finally spoke in a hoarse voice, "Keep checking! I want to know what the person who caught the scales is!"

The yellow badger opened his mouth, he wanted to say that he didn't dare to ask more at all, once his identity was revealed...... Even the eldest young master can catch a master, how can he resist?

"I don't care what method you use, you must ask the villagers of Baixi Village what happened and the whereabouts of Scales! And quickly!" the Snake Queen's voice was cold and piercing.

The yellow badger closed his mouth in amusement...... Bargain with the Snake Queen in anger? He's not that stupid.

Get...... I can only bite the bullet.

After a few more conversations, the shadow turned into a black mist and dissipated, and the yellow badger sighed and pushed the door out.

The yellow badger walked around the village and found that most of the people were busy with their own business, sewing clothes, collecting shoe soles, washing cotton jackets, and drying buds...... Other women polish their wooden shafts back and forth on the stones to prepare for the next "running business".

For some reason, most people have a faint worry on their faces.

The yellow badger's ears moved, and his keen hearing as a demon allowed him to capture what people were talking about......

It turned out that according to the usual rules, the merchant team should have returned a few days ago, but this time it was delayed, which inevitably made the old and weak women and children in the village worried.

Moreover, as a village surrounded by mountains, the people of Baixi Village have always been mainly hunting, supplemented by farming. Now that winter has arrived, the crops have not been harvested, and the young and strong men who can hunt have gone to run the merchants, so the source of food in the village has become a big problem.

Originally, if the caravan returned on time, this embarrassment could be alleviated in time, but this time, the caravan did not return for a long time, and the food in the village was already in short supply.

The yellow badger shrugged, but he didn't care at all, as a demon, what does it matter to him whether humans live or die?

What he cared about was how to open his mouth to inquire about the whereabouts of the eldest young master.

I wanted to ask Xiao Zheng Taigu Xingshi, but the kid didn't know where to go, so the yellow badger had to wander around aimlessly...... In the end, the little girl who was sucking her fingers and playing with mud at the entrance of the village was locked.

Children, it's definitely easier to deceive!

After all, she is a little girl in a mountain village, and she is not a pink carving. The little girl was wearing a dirty red cotton jacket, with mud dots on her trouser legs, and two little pigtails, and she was holding her fingers in her mouth and sucking them, as if they were the most delicious lollipops.

The yellow badger slowly approached, and the little girl immediately glared at him alertly.

"Hehe, little girl...... Huang Badger squatted down with a smile on his face, "Let me ask you something? That, I heard that a monster in the village was caught a few days ago?"

The little girl froze for a moment, and forgot to suck her fingers in her mouth.

"Youkai, you know what? It's the kind that eats people. The yellow badger continued to follow the temptation, "I haven't seen a monster yet, I'm very interested, can you tell me the story of the monster being caught?"

The yellow badger thinks that it is harmless to humans and animals from its voice to its expression, and it is definitely the standard image of a kind and kind big brother next door, who knows, the little girl seems to be frightened, and her little ass suddenly sits on the ground, and she cries with a "wow"!

"Woooooooooo......oo The village chief's grandfather said that the strangers who inquired about Niuniu about this matter were monsters and would eat Niuniu's ......" The little girl cried and retreated.

"Uh......" the yellow badger's face twitched.

"Wow...... Your expression is so scary. The little girl cried louder, got up and ran to the village, "Don't eat Niu Niu ......"

"I ...... You ......" The yellow badger watched the little girl run away with black lines on his face.

There was a burst of scolding in my heart, and I knew that the village chief was not a good thing, and even such a young child was brainwashed, so he was not afraid of scaring the child?

After being speechless for a long time, the yellow badger looked left and right, and suddenly his eyes lit up. I saw that on the other side of the village entrance, the old man he had seen when he came was still squatting there, leisurely eating melon seeds and basking in the sun.

The old man seemed to have some ears behind his ears, and his eyes were probably not very good, so he didn't notice the scene between the yellow badger and the little girl just now.

Children are easy to be afraid, and it's easier to be fooled, right? The yellow badger's eyes rolled around twice, and then he leaned over with a smile on his face.

"Old man, what about the sun?" the yellow badger had nothing to say.

The old man snorted twice, noncommittal.

"That ......," the yellow badger scratched his head and sneered, "Have you heard that the old man has heard that a monster was captured two days ago......? You're well-informed, can you tell me about it?"

The old man glanced at him, silently picked up the crutch on the ground, and stood up with his body propped up.

Click!

Walking towards the village without looking back, on crutches.

"Hey?" Huang Badger was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly followed two steps, "Don't go, you, tell me?"

Click...... The old man didn't speak, but walked faster.

"Hey, hey......" The yellow badger was so anxious that he stomped his feet and fished on the ground with both hands, "Melon seeds, melon seeds are still here, don't you knock over?" said and was about to catch up.

Swish!

Now the old man even threw away his crutches and hurried away with his head shut...... At this moment, the old man's back is no longer rickety, his waist is straight, and his two legs are catching up with Hot Wheels...... At that speed, the yellow badger estimated that he wouldn't be able to catch up with it without demon power!

"Hey, whoever, this is all!" the yellow badger angrily threw the melon seeds on the ground, what about the most basic trust between people?
