In the dilapidated village.

In the small square, four people sat around a small stone table.

The little girl held a chicken leg in one hand and ate it with oil dripping from her mouth, completely disregarding the girl's image.

The old man did not eat, but just looked at the little girl dotingly.

"Little girl, eat slowly, sister has more here."

Nan Xi was also looking at the little girl, with a touch of pity on her pretty face.

"I'm not a little girl, I'm a boy!"

Xiao Zhuer stared at Nan Xi while gnawing on the chicken leg. His eyes were big and spiritual, and he was a little thin, with two small braids on his head, looking like a little girl.

"......"

"So you are a boy, I thought you were a little girl."

Nan Xi smiled.

"Old Chen, you should eat too, we have more here!"

Shen Lang looked at the old man and said.

From the conversation just now, we know that the old man's name is Chen Fu. He used to be the village head, managing 10 households. He can be regarded as a grassroots official. He has some experience in governing the village, which makes Shen Lang more determined to keep him.

And Xiao Zhu'er is just a nickname. His real name is Chen Ping'an. He looks a bit like a little girl, but he is actually a real boy.

"I am not hungry now. I will eat later. I will eat later."

Old man Chen looked at the roast chicken on the table, swallowed his saliva, and did not move in the end.

"Okay, then wait until you are hungry before eating!"

Shen Lang nodded, but did not force it on this matter, but continued: "Old Chen, you might as well consider my proposal just now. This is the village chief of our Luoyue Village. He is beautiful and kind, and he will never treat you unfairly."

Hearing Shen Lang praise himself, Nan Xi pursed her lips, her pretty face flushed, and she was a little proud.

"Yes, Old Chen, don't think that our Luoyue Village is a little run-down now, but this is only temporary, you should stay."

"Besides, you are in this desolate mountain and wilderness with a child, and you don't have enough food to eat. At least you can have a stable place to live if you stay, right?"

Nan Xi also echoed.

"This... Then I will obey your order. I will pay my respects to the village chief."

Old Chen hesitated for a few seconds, then agreed, stood up and saluted Nan Xi.

"Ding!"

Accompanied by a system prompt, the number of villagers in Luoyue Village also reached 3, and Nan Xi added 20 points of reputation.

Done!

Shen Lang and Nan Xi smiled at each other.

"By the way, village chief, I have some fellow villagers who are also homeless now. I wonder if they can join our Luoyue Village?"

Old Chen asked tentatively.

"Yes, of course!"

The two of them were delighted when they heard this. Shen Lang hurriedly asked, "I wonder how many of Mr. Chen's fellow villagers there are, and where are they now?"

"There are still fifty or sixty of them, all of whom fled with me, in a cave thirty miles away. The kid has been hungry for several days, and there is no food there, so I took the kid out on an adventure."

Old man Chen said slowly.

"Old Chen, are they still there now?"

Nan Xi asked.

"They should still be there."

Old man Chen nodded, "There are many wild beasts outside, they dare not come out, and I really have no choice but to venture out."

"It's good that they are still there!"

"Then, Mr. Chen, take me there later, and I will pick them all up!"

Shen Lang was very excited.

If fifty or sixty refugees can be recruited, the first condition for upgrading the village will be met.

"I'll go, I'll go, I know the way too!"

Before Mr. Chen could speak, Xiao Ping'an on the side hurriedly said, very excited after eating and drinking.

"Why are you joining in the fun? Let the wild beasts outside eat you."

Old Chen patted his grandson's head and scolded him.

"It's okay, Old Chen. Little Ping'an will be fine as long as I'm here!"

As he said that, Shen Lang directly summoned the ferocious velociraptor, which scared Old Chen on the spot, but Little Ping'an was not afraid at all, but was very curious.

When he learned that this was Shen Lang's mount, Old Chen couldn't help but sigh, and then agreed to let Little Ping'an follow Shen Lang to pick up people.

After all, he was a little older and couldn't stand the running around.

"Xixi, I'll go pick those people up, and you can buy more food when you return to Tianluo City."

Shen Lang held Little Ping'an in front of him and told Nan Xi.

"Yes, I'll go right away."

Nan Xi nodded quickly.

Then, Shen Lang no longer hesitated. With a whistle, the velociraptor rushed away at a very fast speed...

...

Under Xiao Ping'an's command, Shen Lang found the cave that Chen Lao mentioned in less than 20 minutes.

And inThere were more than 50 refugees in the cave, including men, women, old and young, all of whom were pale and thin, and had obviously been hungry for a long time.

It was no wonder that they did not dare to go out. Shen Lang had just taken a walk. Although there were not many wild monsters here, they were all of high levels. He could not even see the levels. These refugees were naturally no match for them. It was good that they were not swallowed up in one bite.

Shen Lang and Xiao Ping'an entered the cave and explained their purpose to everyone. With Xiao Ping'an there, everyone was not suspicious and agreed to go back to Luoyue Village with Shen Lang.

For them, whoever could give them a meal and let them do anything would do it.

"Sir, we are too hungry and can't walk that far."

A refugee said to Shen Lang.

Half of the more than 50 people here are women, children, the elderly and the young. They have been hungry for a long time. Not to mention more than 30 miles, they can't even walk 10 miles. They are too hungry.

"Wait a moment."

Hearing this, Shen Lang did not say much and left the cave quickly.

In less than ten minutes, Shen Lang brought back a huge earth dragon, which shocked everyone.

Although the level of these earth dragons could not be seen, it was estimated that they were more than level 100, which was not a problem for Shen Lang now.

The earth dragon was dismembered in no time, and then cut into small pieces. Then the refugees found some firewood around the cave and directly made a fire to roast the dragon meat.

An hour later, everyone had a full meal and followed Shen Lang to Luoyue Village with satisfaction.

It took much longer to return, after all, there were many wild monsters blocking the road, and the villagers walked slowly. It was not until after 8 o'clock in the evening that Shen Lang led a large group back to Luoyue Village.

Nan Xi was sitting in the yard practicing, while Old Man Chen was fiddling with something in a house. Hearing the noise outside, he hurried out.

"Honey, I brought back some wood and stone. The iron ore has not been dug yet!"

Nan Xi stood up and pointed to the piles of square stones and wood next to the fence.

"Well, take it one step at a time. Don't rush!"

Shen Lang nodded.

Nan Xi brought back more than 100 units of wood and stone, which was enough to build a basic building.
