Chapter Seventy-Eight: In Danger?
Because the male host suddenly asked, Mu Chen nodded in surprise, "Yes, we will leave early tomorrow morning." ”
"Do you need a guide?" asked the man with a smile on his face.
Wizard ?......
Just as Mu Chen and them were discussing, the hostess also enthusiastically explained: "Yes, yes, my family often goes hunting in the forest, and they are very familiar with it. ”
"Mu Chen, I think it's okay. Li Dong nodded and agreed to ask the man to be the guide.
"Okay, then I'll bother you. Mu Chen raised the wine and toasted the host.
"Haha, no trouble, no trouble," the man quickly dried up the wine in his hand, and said with a light in his eyes: "It's just that we have to talk about the price." ”
"You don't have to worry about that, the money will not be less than yours. Li Dongyi naturally knew that the purpose of the male owner was to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune, so he took out a wad of cash directly from his bag. "Are you looking at enough?"
Mu Chen stared at Li Dongyi's bag and quipped: "Brother, you won't just bring money along the way, will you?
"you!" Li Dongyi put the bag aside and handed the money to the man.
"Enough, enough!" the man quickly took the money, put it in his hand, and carefully put it into the inner bag of his clothes.
"My surname is Wang, you can call me Lao Wang!"
In the early morning of the second day, a group of villagers gathered outside the door of the ancient village king Orion's house.
"Village chief, you can't let Lao Wang enter the forest again!"
"Yes, village chief, if Lao Wang continues like this, our village will definitely be destroyed!"
"I heard that a few outsiders came to his house last night, and they must be going into the forest, and we must organize them. ”
The villagers surrounded an old man on crutches.
"Okay," the village chief standing in the crowd said in a deep voice: "Villagers, Lao Wang and his wife are from the ancient village after all, we should still persuade them with good words, as for those outsiders, directly drive them out of the ancient village." ”
"yes, get them out!"
The agitated villagers waved their fists and began to slam the door.
And Mu Chen and his partners in the house had already been woken up by the sound outside, but when they wanted to open the door, they were stopped by Lao Wang.
"Stay inside, I'll go out and deal with them. Lao Wang drove Mu Chen and them to the back room, turned around and opened the door.
Lao Wang stretched his waist and asked, "Village Chief, do you have anything to do with me?"
"Hehe," the village chief walked out of the crowd on crutches, "Xiao Wang, I heard that you are going to the forest again today, and you have brought a few outsiders?"
As he spoke, the village chief walked up to Lao Wang and looked into the door on his left side. Lao Wang raised his foot and stepped to the right, blocking the village chief's sight, and looked at the villagers in front of him with disdain: "Yo Yo Yo, I don't know who is lying at my door listening to the wall!"
As soon as Lao Wang finished speaking, he saw some villagers quietly bow their heads, and there was embarrassment in their eyes. The crowd, which had calmed down, was noisy again.
"Knock, knock, knock!" the village chief threw his cane three times before the crowd quieted down.
"Xiao Wang, we didn't do it right to eavesdrop on this, but you really can't go into the forest again, it will kill our village, and the god of the forest will punish us!"
"Hmph," Lao Wang snorted lightly, pointed to the villagers in front of him, and said, "What is the god of the forest, how can I make money if I don't go hunting? How can I support my family?"
Lao Wang's words once again caused a commotion among the villagers, who shouted to drive out the outsiders in the house. But Lao Wang leaned lightly against the door, picked up a shotgun from the inside of the door and wiped it down.
The village chief silently retreated into the crowd, and no one dared to step forward with Lao Wang's posture, and the two parties were in such a stalemate.
Although Mu Chen, who was in the house, could hear the sound outside, he could hear the clouds and fog, what "god of the forest"?
"Mu Chen, why don't we slip away from the window, I don't know how long the stalemate will be outside, if it gets dark, it will be troublesome. Break off suggested.
"Don't, you wait a little longer, since I have received your money, I will definitely bring you in safely. Sister-in-law Wang, who was standing at the door, hurriedly stopped Mu Chen and the others.
"Sister-in-law, that money should be our dinner money last night, we really have to leave early. Li Dong said well.
"No, there is danger in the forest, and only my man has been able to enter it all these years. ”
Dangerous?
After listening to Sister-in-law Wang, Mu Chen sat down. It seems that the villagers outside tried their best to prevent them from entering, probably because there was some danger in the forest.
Mu Chen and the others are not familiar with the forest, so they should be careful. Since Lao Wang is familiar with the forest, it is not a big deal to wait a little longer.
But at this time, Sima Yang stood up: "Hey! Sister-in-law, you don't have to worry. ”
After Sima Yang finished speaking, he took out the soul chain, wrapped it around his hand, and got up to leave.
Sister-in-law Wang wanted to stop Sima Yang, but when she saw the chain in his hand that was like a ghost fire with green light, she was so frightened that she retreated to the door.
"Sima Yang. Wuyu stopped him, "Wait a little longer." ”
"What are you waiting for, are you all greedy for life and afraid of death?" Sima Yang looked at Mu Chen, who was sitting on the bench, and gave up, Li Dongyi said impatiently, his eyes swept over everyone, and when the word "death" was used, his eyes fell on Mu Chen.
"What do you mean by that?" Breaking away from enduring Sima Yang all the way, he immediately stood up when he heard him say this, "You are sick with yin and yang!"
Breaking away from seeing Sima Yang for a long time, because after the discussion between the Hidden Dao Sect and Mu Chen, they both had doubts about Sima Yang, and they were paying attention to Sima Yang's actions all the way.
Although nothing went wrong, he still noticed that Sima Yang always looked at Mu Chen secretly, sometimes staring at Mu Chen's Void Rope, sometimes staring at Xiao Yuanba, and when he looked at Mu Chen, there was always a coldness in his eyes.
"If you want to go, you can go, anyway, the map is here with us, you can go shopping casually, and the master will not stop you. ”
"Ah Li. Mu Chen grabbed the break and shook his head slightly, telling him not to talk about the matter first.
Li Dongyi, who was accustomed to dealing with interpersonal relationships, also stood up and stood between Jiesheli and Sima Yang: "What are you making trouble! Since you have decided to go in together, you can wait here, and leave if you don't want to wait. ”
As soon as Li Dong finished speaking, he broke away from Sima Yang and the two of them were stunned, and it didn't end well for a while. Mu Chen and Wu Yu hurriedly pulled the two back to sit down.
"Hmph, he just thought the map was with you. Breaking away from the whisper to Mu Chen.
"Shhhhh Mu Chen reminded.
Just then, the door opened. Lao Wang walked in with a shotgun on his shoulder. The villagers outside the house have dispersed.
"Let's go!"
"What about the village chief and the villagers?" asked the old Wang's daughter-in-law, looking at the door.
"I sent you away, didn't I drive them away a few times? Lao Wang said disdainfully.
Lao Wang and his daughter-in-law said a few words, and after saying goodbye, they set off with Mu Chen and the others.
Lao Wang walked at the front of the group, Mu Chen and Duan Sheli followed behind Lao Wang to pay attention to the surrounding situation, Li Dongyi and Wuyu walked in the middle, and Sima Yang walked alone at the end without saying a word.
The unhappiness in Lao Wang's house seems to have continued all the way, and Wuyu originally wanted to persuade Sima Yang, but was forced to retreat by Sima Yang with silence.
Xiao Yuanba showed his head out of Mu Chen's pocket and looked at the surrounding scenery with wide eyes.
The group set out from the village and walked towards the mountains. It was getting late, Lao Wang took Mu Chen and others over the two mountains, because there was still some distance from the primeval forest, everyone decided to find a flat land at the foot of the mountain, and set up two tents.
There were only two tents stuffed into Mu Chen's void rope, just six people, three people in each tent.
By the time the tent was set up, the sun had set, and the night and a half-moon dominated the sky.
Mu Chen's group was really hungry after walking all the way, and after Lao Wang collected the wood and burned the fire, Mu Chen poured out a stack of food from the void rope.
Chicken wings, chicken legs, beef, live fish, and a skinned sheep.
"You, are you magic?" Lao Wang was stunned when he saw the food fall out of the red rope on Mu Chen's wrist.
"Hehe, Brother Muchen, if I don't mix with you, with your rope, what else will I hunt!"
"It's not magic, it's just a store of things. Mu Chen said with a light smile.
Mu Chen and Lao Wang were in charge of cooking, and they gave up their hands on the two of them, and the others set up tents.
The aroma of the food spreads from the fire, and the fat, oily roasted whole lamb is roasted to a golden brown, and the oil drips down, giving off a burst of aroma.
After the tent was set up, Mu Chen's roasted whole sheep was also ready, and a few stir-fried dishes from Lao Wang's side were also out of the pot. Everyone sat around the campfire.
"Wow!" Xiao Yuanba jumped out of Mu Chen's pocket with an exclamation, sat on Mu Chen's lap with his ass, and excitedly pointed to the roast whole sheep in front of him and asked Mu Chen to tear a piece for it, and his saliva was so hungry that it dripped onto Mu Chen's legs.
Mu Chen shook his head helplessly, and used a knife to cut a piece of meat bigger than Xiao Yuanba's size and handed it to him.
Lao Wang, who was walking over with a plate of vegetables, saw the unknown creature eating mutton on Mu Chen's lap, and was so frightened that he almost knocked over the dish, but fortunately, the dismemberment on the side reacted quickly and helped him.
"This, what is this?" asked Lao Wang in fear as he looked at the thing on Mu Chen's lap.
"Haha, this is Mu Chen's pet, don't look at it ugly, but it's usually very well-behaved. Before Mu Chen could answer, he interjected.
"Oh, I see. Lao Wang nodded as if he didn't understand, and sighed: "The things in your city are really strange. ”
Mu Chen gently patted Xiao Yuanba's body and told him to eat slowly.
Dinner officially began, and everyone who had been walking all day was tired and hungry, and everyone began to gobble it up. This appearance does not lose to Xiao Yuanba at all.
Not to mention, the dishes made by Lao Wang are really delicious, although they are in this barren mountains and mountains, they are also full of color, flavor and flavor. In less than a few moments, a few dishes were wiped out.
Duan Sheli touched his round belly and said with a smile: "Brother Wang, your craftsmanship is better than that of your sister-in-law!"
Everyone nodded their heads, it was indeed delicious.
Hearing everyone praise themselves like this, Lao Wang scratched his head a little embarrassedly, and said modestly: "It's just the cooking method in the mountains, thanks to the food brought by the little brother Muchen, and the iron pot, that pot is amazing, haha! Without these, we would have to eat hard dry food tonight." ”
The food on the table was basically wiped out, and Xiao Yuanba was also full, and he got into Mu Chen's pocket and fell asleep.
