Chapter 7 It's so hard to steal a dish
Chapter 7 It's so hard to steal a dish, and not long after fifteen, the moon is still very round and bright. There is not a single cloud in the sky. The bright moonlight shone on the earth, and it didn't seem like a good time to do bad things.
Shangyuan and Earthworm didn't say anything all the way, not because they were afraid of being discovered, but because they were too nervous. For them who do bad things for the first time, swallowing and spitting is like being a thief, let alone talking. I feel that as long as one syllable is uttered, it will be heard by people dozens of miles away.
Finally, Shangyuan couldn't hold it anymore. He swallowed, moistening his throat, which was dry from nervousness. Licked his lips, which were also dry.
The first syllable since departure was pronounced.
"Earthworm...... Earthworm, I ...... I was a little nervous. The earthworm didn't answer him, and crawled forward with his head down.
Shangyuan felt a sense of frustration in his heart. It's obviously his own business, but he wants to pull the earthworm to take the adventure together. Before the earthworm could say anything, he retreated, which really shouldn't be.
Thinking of this, he suddenly became excited, and his eyes reflected a light that he had never seen before, excitement, anticipation, and bravery...... In short, he walked forward with a determined step.
In the distance, you can hear the dogs in the village howling...... Oh...... sounds. It is said that dogs are distant relatives of wolves, so they also summon companions at night like wolves. But what's the use, it's just something bound in chains.
The dog's barking did not summon a companion, but frightened the two men approaching the village. They don't dare to act rashly, and in their subconscious, they think that the dog's barking seems to be made because of them.
They felt that as soon as they stepped into the village, they would be caught and put on display. At this point, the moon has risen in mid-sky.
The bright moonlight shone on the two men, reflecting their shadows on the long, straight road.
The people in the village rested early, and there was no one on the road at this time, only the two of them were lonely, and they looked particularly lonely on the silent road.
As the two of them slowed down, they finally stopped. Shang Yuan couldn't help it again. He said to the earthworm, "Earthworm, are we still going?"
At this time, the earthworm's heart was broken, because he didn't know the answer either. Go, if you get caught, I don't know what will happen, maybe you will be dried by earthworms. If you don't go, what will Shangyuan do, not to mention if you can't complete the task assigned by the Jade Emperor, the Misty Valley will also fall into an irretrievable situation.
Alas...... The earthworm sighed. looked at Shangyuan, who was squatting on the side of the road and drawing circles. "Go ahead, we've only heard of this human village, not been there. Maybe they're friendly. ”
Since the earthworms have said yes, it is not easy for Shangyuan to retreat no matter how much he coaxes. It's his business, after all. So they continued their march towards the human village.
Only this time they did not dare to walk on the main road again, but went to the woods by the roadside.
It turns out that the humans are really friendly, if they hadn't released the dozen or so big dogs.
It is said that Shangyuan and the earthworm touched the edge of the village at that time. Squatting outside the walls of a house at the outermost edge of the village. Be prepared to wait for them to sleep.
Because after discussion, they felt that their combat effectiveness was too low. In case of being discovered, he does not even have the ability to escape. So prepare to wait for someone to fall asleep in action.
But who knows, this family has a baby who is not very old. Neither of them saw how big it was. I just know that the baby keeps crying.
The two of them squatted outside the wall, listening to the child's mother try her best to coax the child, but it didn't work.
The kid was crying harder and harder. Until the woman said, "Don't cry, if you cry again, I'll throw you to the Misty Dale to feed the monsters." The kid didn't stop crying.
Shangyuan couldn't sit still, because he knew that there were indeed youkai in the Misty Valley, and there were many youkai. It is not clear whether they eat children or not, but Shangyuan has seen them eat small animals with his own eyes. So he hurriedly reminded him: "Hey, don't cry, there are really monsters in the Misty Valley, I'm from the Misty Valley, although I'm not a monster, I'm a fairy, hey...... Earthworm, why are you dragging me? ”
Shangyuan asked angrily because he hadn't finished speaking. He was worried that the little boy would really be thrown into the Misty Hollow.
The earthworm was almost stunned on the spot, if it wasn't for the immediate escape, the earthworm must have beaten Shangyuan first. I saw the earthworm jumping high and trying to point at the earthworm's nose and say, but after failing, he could only kick the earthworm's foot and say hatefully: "You idiot, what do you talk to people, don't forget that we are thieves and are here to steal." ”
"You still tell people that you are from the Misty Valley, do they care if you are a monster or a fairy? ”
Listening to the earthworm's words, Shang Yuan's lips turned white. He just kindly reminded him, but he didn't expect to cause such a big disaster. He asked with a trembling lip, "What about ...... What are we going to do now?"
"What to do, run, have you heard that people have started to call people? ”
Shangyuan heard it, and it not only heard it, but it heard it very clearly. The woman called her man after hearing him speak. He heard her say to his man, "There's a youkai from Misty Valley out there who is coming to eat our children." ”
Shangyuan doesn't understand, whoever wants to eat your children, obviously you want to feed your children to monsters. Why, on the other hand, he kindly reminded him to become a bad person.
He heard the man shouting in the courtyard, "The monster has entered the village, let the dog out." Then, dogs barked in all directions of the village. And it's getting closer. The sound of shouting, footsteps, and barking dogs mixed together to make it earth-shattering.
It's not that Shangyuan doesn't want to run, it's just that he can't run anymore, and his legs have shaken into a sieve. If it weren't for the gods avoiding grains, he might have urinated in his pants.
Seeing that Shangyuan didn't understand, the earthworm jumped up and slapped him in the face and shouted, "Fool, run quickly." ”
Shang Yuan already sensed that someone was approaching him. Maybe it's because there are few people who don't dare to come, and it's too late to run when there are many people.
Thinking of this, he suddenly had the strength to stand up and run.
I ran two steps and thought, "No, what am I doing?" and ran back to where I had been, jumped into the wall, and pulled out a cabbage.
After coming out, he put the earthworm in his pocket and ran wildly with the cabbage in his arms.
