Tongxi Village.

Spring is full of vitality. Like many villages, Tongxi Village is full of cultivated land and field gardens at a glance. Villagers in twos and threes are working in the fields, and there are paths between the fields, planting flowers and plants. pear tree.

The spring in the south is hotter than in the north. It is only late March, and the sun at noon is already comparable to that in summer.

The elderly farmer wiped his sweat, rested his straw hat on his hips, and looked into the distance to see a carriage slowly approaching their village.

Tongxi Village used to lead a peaceful and stable life like other unknown villages. A few months ago, they welcomed a group of passers-by and asked if they could stay overnight.

Those people were well-dressed, generous and polite, and the kind and hospitable villagers stayed with them, and those people left early the next morning.

Unexpectedly, not long after they left, strange things in Tongxi Village happened one after another.

At first, they heard wolves howling in the middle of the night. There had been no wolves in their village for a long time, and the location was not very remote. No matter what, there should be no wolves. But a few days later, someone was bitten to death by wolves early in the morning.

The man died at the door of the house with his eyes wide open. He seemed to have seen some terrible scene. There were signs of being bitten on his body, and there were messy scratch marks on the door. It could be seen that the man was struggling desperately before he died. He wanted to enter the door, but finally fell at the door.

The villagers were very frightened and arranged many traps and anti-wolf devices. Fortunately, it worked, and they really caught one or two wolves that were left alone.

Just as the villagers were relaxing, it didn't take long for the young men in the village to start missing. At the beginning, two or three of the missing men were punks who didn't have a good reputation in the village. , but a few days later, some villagers found their mummies in the mountains and rivers near the village or in other places.

Before they could react, the children in the village also started to get lost. This is a terrible situation. The successive accidents brought a huge sense of fear, which deeply depressed the hearts of the villagers in Tongxi Village. Rumors that the village seemed to be cursed intensified.

Some people were so scared that they ran away overnight. Gradually, all the young and able-bodied people in the village moved away, leaving only the old, weak, sick and disabled with nowhere to go.Grandparents have lived here for generations, where can they go without money?Is it to eat and sleep in the open or to weather the wind and rain?

Tongxi Village has been labeled as unknown, and which relative is willing to take them in?

Poverty and indifference are more terrifying than death that does not know when it will come.

In the end, more than half of the hundreds of villagers left, and there were more than [-] households left. The old village chief stayed with the village to live and die, and set the rules for the rest of the people. Do not go out in the dark, if you must go out, you must go with three people.

But even so, there are always passers-by who have lost their traces and news for no apparent reason, including the disciples of the small sect on the rivers and lakes, so Cangshan once again sent disciples to investigate and assist, and they should have arrived long ago. However, it was delayed for half a month because of the accident in Yangzhou City.

The old man squinted at the carriage passing by, and couldn't help thinking that the disaster in Tongxi Village seemed to have started with the arrival of that carriage.

Such thoughts flashed through his mind and his expression changed greatly. Then he saw the carriage parked in front of the field ridge, and the young man in brocade clothes on the carriage smiled at him. His eyes looked like a deadly ghost, he dropped the hoe, turned around and ran away.

Xu Pei lifted the curtain and didn't say a word, he didn't know what he was thinking while watching the old man running away.

"Master?" the guard outside called him.

"Let's go to the entrance of the village." Xu Pei put down the curtain and said.

"Brother Ah Pei, why did that old man run away?" The girl beside Xu Pei also asked after seeing the scene just now.

Xu Pei sighed: "Miss, I told you that you shouldn't come."

The girl known as the young lady pursed her lips and said dissatisfiedly, "You just want to get rid of me! I won't go back, but my father agreed and told you to take good care of me."

"But all I brought with me on this trip were men, so it's inconvenient for you to be a woman."

The girl took his arm and said with a sweet smile, "So you have to take better care of me."

The guards outside the car turned their heads and pretended not to hear the conversation in the car. It is good for the eldest lady to be accompanied by Mr. Xu, and not to torture them servants.

The villagers ignored them when they saw outsiders coming, and erected defensive devices at the entrance of the village. There were also young men with long guns looking at them indifferently, and some guards who wanted to talk to him were pointed at by him with long guns. Pushing back, it is obvious that if you force your way, you will be fighting with your life.

"It's in the wild, prepare to live."

......

When Ruan Xianbei and the others arrived, they saw Xu Pei and his party camping in the wild.

"Here we are." Shen Xuan said.

After the carriage stopped, they also saw the frightened villagers and the indifferent guards.

Some people are camping not far from the entrance of the village, and the tents have already been set up.

"That group of people is...Xu Pei?" Ruan Xianbei said, "Why is he here?"

"Who is Xu Pei?" Cheng Suisui asked.

Ruan Xianbei pursed his lips: "Well, a disciple of Lingxiao Villa, adopted son of the owner."

A few people got off the horses, and the coachman pulled the carriage aside. They saw Xu Pei and his party, so Xu Pei naturally saw them too, especially a monk, it was hard not to pay attention.

"Junior Brother Shen." Xu Pei had a smile on his face, and his complexion looked much better than when we met at the Martial Arts Association. He looked at Ruan Xianbei again, "This junior sister is here too."

"Senior brother Xu is also here." Shen Xuan replied flatly, "Senior brother Xu looks much better than last time."

"Yes, after hearing about Tongxi Village, foster father learned that Cangshan sent disciples down the mountain, so he asked me to come and see if I could help." Xu Pei smiled, "I didn't expect such a coincidence, They are all acquaintances. Although I may not be able to help you much, but I am leading experts in the Profound Sky Realm, so please don’t hesitate if you need it.”

He pointed to the guards, and Ruan Xianbei looked over. He had heard the phrase 'You are welcome to help if you need it' a lot these days.

While speaking, the girl in the pink skirt also ran over.

"Brother Ah Pei, who are they?" The girl with a petite figure and a sweet voice raised her chin and asked Xu Pei coquettishly.

Xu Pei introduced: "These are disciples of Cangshan, this is the Junior Brother Shen Xuan I mentioned, and this is Junior Master Tongchun from Mahayana Temple."

"Oh, what about these two girls?" the girl asked again.

Xu Pei smiled apologetically and said, "Sorry, I don't know the names of the two girls."

When Ruan Xianbei saw Xu Pei, he felt uncomfortable all over. Afraid that he would make a mistake, he stood half a step behind the others, so as not to make any unexpected moves.

Cheng Suisui held her hand, and Shen Xuan also paid a little attention to her.

The girl glanced at them, with a smile on her lips but a hint of disdain.

Ruan Xianbei didn't speak, Cheng Suisui took a small step forward and stretched out his hand, "It's normal that senior brother Xu doesn't know us, my name is Cheng Suisui, this is Ruan Xianbei."

"My name is Mu Ruojiao." The girl smiled but didn't intend to reach out her hand. She looked at Shen Xuan, then at Ruan Xianbei who had been silent all this time, and pulled Xu Pei to leave.

"Brother Ah Pei, go and help me set up the tent. There seem to be bugs in it. I'm afraid."

"I'll go first." Xu Pei smiled apologetically again, and followed the girl back.

"Brother Ah Pei, is that Shen Xuan? I still think you are the prettiest."

"Don't talk nonsense, what's the use of looking good."

Cheng Suisui looked at his outstretched hand and was speechless.

When they were far away, they also chose a place to sit down and rest. Cheng Suisui sat down and looked at her hands over and over again. She asked Ruan Xianbei, "Is this Mu Ruojiao hostile to us?"

"Even you feel it?" Ruan Xianbei looked at her in surprise, "Mu Ruojiao is hostile to the opposite sex who appears around Xu Pei, did you almost hang on to Xu Pei if you didn't see her? "

"Isn't that right? We don't know Xu Pei well, can she handle so many women in the world?" Cheng Suisui opened the box and took out some food for everyone, took a bite out of one of them, and said: " this is not bad!"

Ruan Xianbei took it over and saw that it was a butterfly cake. Thinking that the last time she ate a butterfly cake was at Miss Wen's house, Cui Lin really had a heart.

The sweet taste spread on the tip of her tongue. She took a sip of water slowly after eating a piece, and said, "People enjoy it, so we shouldn't worry about it."

Cheng Suisui was indignant: "Damn it, she also said that Senior Brother is not as good as Xu Pei, how can that sickly appearance compare to Senior Senior Brother?"

Ruan Xianbei laughed when he said this, "That's true, if Tong Chun grows up and returns to vulgarity, he can also beat Xu Pei eight hundred times."

Ruan Xianbei looked across, was it a coincidence that Xu Pei and them appeared here at the same time?Do they have other things, or is it really just coming to help as he said?

Ruan Xianbei recalled the location of Lingxiao Villa, after thinking about it, he realized that he had no memory of it!

Very well, she doesn't know the key things.

Ruan Yan wanted to negotiate at the entrance of the village, but the villagers also ignored him. When Tong Chun saw him coming back, he said, "Why don't you try it, little monk?"

"The benefactor." Tong Chun went to the village entrance to talk to the guarding villagers again, "The little monk seems to be troubled when he sees the benefactor. I wonder if there is anything I can do to help the benefactor?"

Tong Chun spoke very slowly, and there seemed to be a trace of distress on the man's face, but then he immediately returned to indifference, pointing a spear at him.

He gritted his teeth and squeezed out a few words from his throat: "Hurry up."

Tong Chun took a step back and bowed: "Thank you, benefactor."

He returned back with a solemn expression, sat down and said to the others, "There is a problem here."
