Chapter 75 Map of the Wolf's Lair

Li Zhen saw that the horse could no longer be saved, so he simply buried it to prevent the spread of wolf venom.

There was nothing to do that night, and the next morning, when Li Zhen was still asleep, he heard the sound of rustling outside the door.

He rubbed his sleepy eyes, and saw that Long Xiao and Ziyan next to him had already gotten up, and he turned over and jumped up from the haystack.

Walking out of the door, there were two or three old men on the street, but when they saw Li Zhen, they all hurriedly dispersed, as if they were afraid of him.

"Hey, old man, don't go?" Li Zhen wanted to explain to them, but when those old men saw Li Zhen calling out to them, they left faster.

"Strange! Why do you see me like seeing a ghost, do I look so fierce?" Li Zhen muttered to himself.

"Haha...... What kind of good person do you think you look like?" Long Xiao came out of nowhere, and when he heard Li Zhen talking to himself, he quipped.

"Early in the morning, where have you been?" Li Zhen looked at Long Xiao with a lot of wild goods in his hand, including wild pheasants, wild mushrooms, and wild vegetables.

"Look! the early bird gets worms!" the dragon shook the game in his hand!

"You're still diligent!" Li Zhen pouted.

Ziyan heard him arguing at the door, and also walked out of the house.

"You don't know what's going on here, people here are scared of outsiders. ”

"Why are you scared by outsiders?Ziyan, how do you know?" Li Zhen and Long Xiao looked at Ziyan with puzzled expressions.

"I listened to her in the morning when I went to clean up the house for the old lady in the house. It used to be a place of north-south access, but because a stranger came not long ago, everything here became what it is now, so the remaining people are very xenophobic. Ziyan told her all about what she had heard.

"Hey, we can't communicate with that old lady, you're really good!" Li Zhen didn't expect Ziyan to really communicate with people.

"That's right! Isn't it just by being warm-hearted! I tidied up the messy house for the old lady, and she told me everything. Ziyan's eyes narrowed into a slit.

"Ziyan, you are such a good-hearted girl!" Li Zhen suddenly looked at Ziyan with eyes full of admiration.

"Li Gongzi, don't praise me, you are the great heroes who save the suffering in my heart! Come, I'll go and stew this chicken for everyone, let's have a good meal, and by the way, let the old man satisfy his hunger." Ziyan took the game from Long Xiao and happily went to cook.

"How is it? You're a good girl, right?" Long Xiao touched Li Zhen's arm, and when he saw that Li Zhen's eyes were about to fall out, he couldn't help but smile and said.

"It's pretty good!" Li Zhen looked at Ziyan's back, thoughtfully, and blurted out a sentence from his mouth.

Li Zhen thought about it, Long Xiao's matchmaker-like tone was clearly making fun of himself, and his face sank: "You know a lot!" Long Xiao's eyes turned white, and he went to the kitchen to help Ziyan.

"Haha......" Long Xiao was left laughing at the door.

"Li Gongzi, why did you come in?Where is this kitchen where men should come?" Ziyan was boiling hot water, and when she saw Li Zhen coming in, she hurriedly sent him out.

"This pheasant is fierce! I'll kill it for you, and then go out." Li Zhen grabbed the pheasant, picked up the kitchen knife, and cut a hole in the chicken's neck, and blood gushed out.

"Here you go!

Ziyan was quite stunned about killing chickens, but she didn't expect Li Zhen to be so thoughtful, and indeed helped her solve this big trouble, she took the pheasant with gratitude, bowed her head and smiled, the red fluttering face was like the rising sun, and Li Zhen's heart was warm.

Li Zhen couldn't help much here, so he had to walk out of the kitchen in a huff.

"Yo! how did someone get out?" Long Xiao couldn't help but laugh when he saw that Li Zhen seemed to have lost his soul.

"Why do you say you're a bad old man, mixing with young people every day? Do you understand this?" Li Zhen said impatiently to Long Xiao.

"I don't understand! How can I understand your fancy belly!" Long Xiao shook his head, sat there drinking water, and peeked at Li Zhen's dejected expression from time to time, and the corners of his mouth always had that smile that couldn't be erased.

Li Zhen felt inexplicably irritable in his heart, he walked around the yard, doing nothing, and simply went into the house to see if the old lady needed help.

Li Zhen endured the pungent smell of this room, and he saw that the old lady was sitting on the edge of the bed in a daze.

There was only a small wooden window in this room, and the window paper was already tattered, and a few faint rays of light barely penetrated into the room, and the whole room seemed dim and crowded.

A wooden bed was lazily leaning against the corner, the bed was a mess of clothes, and a coarse quilt had been torn in several places, revealing the cotton that had already turned yellow and blackened inside. There are a lot of bottles and cans on the ground, and I don't know what the old man is doing with so many cans, but looking at them crowded together, it may be that Ziyan has just been put together in the morning. There was also a table of eight immortals in the room, which made this already not spacious room even more crowded, one leg of the table had rotted, and the whole table would shake violently at the slightest touch.

"Old man, if you have any dirty clothes or something, I can help you wash them!" Li Zhen raised his voice and said to the old man.

"......Ahh No need, what am I washing for an old woman who is about to enter the earth! Childe, if you are willing to help, you can help me fix that table! I can't see anything, I really can't do anything!" The old man was happy when he heard that Li Zhen wanted to help her wash her clothes, but after all, he was a son, how could he be embarrassed to let the family do these rough jobs! But since he wanted to repay his kindness, he simply asked him to repair the table, which was more or less decent.

"Hey, okay!" Li Zhen put aside the clutter on the table, moved the table to the yard, and prepared to change its legs, but the light in the room was too dark.

"What's wrong?" Long Xiao saw Li Zhen move a table out of the house, and he didn't know what to mean.

"Fix the table!" Li Zhen smiled smugly.

"Yo, does King Li still know this craft?" Long Xiao said.

"Don't interrupt, hurry up and help!" Li Zhen put the table in the courtyard and carefully studied the table of eight immortals.

"This table looks like it's been around for some years!" Long Xiao also looked at it carefully, feeling that this table was exuding weirdness.

"Nonsense! The legs of the table are rotten, do you say that the years can be missing?" Li Zhen only cared about repairing the table, and did not notice the peculiarity of this table.

"That's not right!" Long Xiao saw that Li Zhen was about to remove the bad leg from this table, and hurriedly stepped out to stop him.

"What are you doing? Li Zhen looked at Long Xiao very puzzled.

"Look!" Long Xiao said, pointing to the surface of the table.

"What's wrong?" Li Zhen said and looked carefully in the direction of Long Xiao's finger, and found that there seemed to be some mysterious patterns painted on this dirty desktop.

"Huh, what is this?" Li Zhen exclaimed.

Long Xiao found a rag and wiped the stains on the surface of the table, but he didn't dare to push too hard, for fear of damaging the patterns.

Finally, the pattern on the table slowly revealed its true face.

"It seems to be a map?" Long Xiao frowned, he didn't expect such a pattern to be painted on the table of such a family.

"It's a bit like it, but I think the part with the map in the middle of this table seems to have been inserted later, and it doesn't seem to be one with this table. Li Zhen observed the edge of the map, and there was a not-so-deep groove.

"Indeed!" Long Xiao also stroked around the table, hoping to find some suspicious mechanism.

"Click!" Long Xiao didn't know where he had touched, the middle part of the table was directly separated from the table.

Li Zhen and Long Xiao looked at the scene in front of them in surprise, Li Zhen picked up the separated wooden board with a map, he took it in his hand and looked back, there was actually a human wolf monster carved behind the wooden board.

"Isn't this the human wolf we met last night?" Long Xiao cried out in surprise.

"It's indeed it!" Li Zhen suddenly remembered after Long Xiao's reminder, and he carefully studied this wolf totem.

"Could it be that this map is inextricably linked to the human wolf clan?how can this old lady have such a map in her house?who left here?" Long Xiao paced back and forth in the courtyard.

"Shhhh

"Old man, sit here!" Li Zhen hurriedly walked over to the old lady and led her to a table at the door of the kitchen.

"It smells so good!" said the old woman, squeezing a smile out of her mouth.

"Purple Smoke Girl is stewing mountain chicken! After a while, you can taste it too?" Li Zhen raised his voice, almost shouting at the top of his voice.

"Drag your blessings! I, a person who is about to enter the ground, can still eat mountain chicken. Hehe......" said the old woman with a smile.

"Old man, who left that Eight Immortals Table in your house?" Li Zhen wanted to get some clues from the old man.

"Who left it behind? I can't remember exactly, it's been here for years, I can't remember. The old man's face changed sharply, as if she had said her most sensitive question, but she quickly regained her composure, and refused to answer this question very tactfully, from her sudden expression, Li Zhen could see that this old lady definitely knew the origin of this table, but why did she hide the truth of the matter?
