Noticing Zhai Anmo's stay, Yun Qing walked up to him and said via voice transmission.
Zhai Anmo shook his head slightly, but did not answer Yun Qing's question.
At this time, an old man with a cane walked out from the crowd. His back was slightly bent, but his eyes were clear and calm. Seeing him coming, the surrounding villagers made way for him.
Walking to the forefront of the crowd, the old man supported his crutches with both hands, and his eyes first stayed on Zhai Anmo for a while before continuing to look at Yun Qing and the others. Finally, he turned his eyes on Yun Qing, who was obviously the leader, "Several little ones You came all the way from afar, but you never greeted me, so please don’t blame me. This old man is the head of Jingyuan Village, surnamed Wang.”
"Why did the village chief say that? It was our presumptuousness to visit rashly. Your village is very grateful for your lodging. Why do you need to welcome us from a distance?" Yun Qing replied with a smile, "My name is Yun Qing, these are My younger brother and younger sister, we are martial arts disciples from the same sect who have come out to practice."
Yun Qing's words were not loud, but enough to be heard by the surrounding villagers who were paying attention to him. When Yun Qing said about martial arts disciples, his half-believing eyes suddenly turned into enlightenment.
"Everyone go back, it's getting late, pack up and close the door and rest." At this time, the village chief waved his crutches and greeted.
Hearing what the village chief said, everyone stopped watching the fun and scattered in all directions, leaving only a few scattered people.
At first, the burly man named Immortal Zhai Anmo walked up to the village head hesitantly, "Second Grandpa, can these knights live in your house? I have two vacant rooms in my house, so it's okay..."
While speaking, his eyes drifted to Zhai Anmo from time to time, and his purpose could not be more obvious. Seeing him like this, the disciples of Chongyuan Sword Sect couldn't help but frowned, looking at him with vigilance in their eyes.
"In that case, I'll go to your house to rest later." Before the others spoke, Zhai Anmo said first, and then smiled at the big man, "Thank you."
"No, you're welcome." The big man stammered, looking a little embarrassed.
"I'll go too." Seeing Zhai Anmo responding, Yun Yuan said quickly.
"Me, I'll go too."
"And I."
Several disciples said at the same time.
Apparently he didn't expect so many people to want to go to his house, cold sweat broke out on the big man's forehead.
"Okay, just Yun Yuan and Junior Brother Yun Mo go here..." Yun Qing looked at the big man.
"Wang Dahu." The big man responded quickly.
"Junior Brother Yunyuan Yunmo is going to Brother Wang Dahu's house, and the others follow the village chief's arrangement with me." Yun Qing said.
Although the others were a little displeased, the elder brother spoke. Although they still had some ideas, they did not express any further opinions. The big man looked at Yun Qing gratefully, "The two knights, I will pick you up at the village chief's house after dinner." You guys."
"Okay." Zhai Anmo nodded.
"The house is shabby, please don't laugh at me." The village head opened the door and welcomed several people in.
The village chief's house is located in the very center of the village. Although it is not considered a high-rise residence, it is still considered grand. It is divided into a front courtyard and a backyard. The main house is the only two-story building in the village.
"Grandpa, you're back!" As soon as they entered the door, they saw a little girl with two braids stumbling out to greet her. She was about two or three years old, and her milk voice was crisp and sweet.
The village chief's face, which was still wearing a polite smile just now, suddenly had a bunch of wrinkles, "My dear girl, be careful not to fall, and run slowly."
The little girl ran out panting, and then realized that a stranger had come to the house, and her expression became a little timid.
The village chief stepped forward and patted her on the head, motioning for the woman who chased her to take her back, and then introduced to several people: "Just now, that is my little granddaughter, she is two and a half years old now, and she is a bit naughty, if there is any conflict, please let me know." Forgive me."
"No, your granddaughter is very cute." Yun Qing said.
During the conversation, several people had already arrived in the main room of the residence. At this time, in addition to the main seat, there were more than a dozen neatly arranged chairs in the main room.
The village head greeted: "Everyone, please sit down freely. Recently, the affairs of the village have been busy, and there have been many gatherings, so the house is a bit messy."
With Yun Qing as the representative and Yun Yuan talking, Zhai Anmo didn't need to say much at all, and sat on the sidelines listening to x9879's report.
x9879: "Host, the host and hostess are less than 10 kilometers away from here. According to their speed, they can enter the village in about five to ten minutes."
"Okay." Zhai Anmo responded to indicate that he heard it.
"The development at this time is the same as in the plot. There are children missing for two consecutive months. The village has lost eight children, all of whom are under the age of five." x9879 seemed to be used to Zhai Anmo's indifference, "Among the next missing children There is the little granddaughter of the village chief, the host, I personally suggest that you should stay at the village chief's house."
Zhai Anmo didn't answer x9879's suggestion. He raised his head and asked the village chief, "Village chief, the old banyan tree at the entrance of your village looks very lush."
"That old banyan tree." The village head seems to have suddenly entered a distant memory, "I remember it was so big when I was a child. At that time, I heard that the older generation said that it was at least a thousand years old. They said that if it cultivated , maybe he has become a fairy now."
"When I was a child, I always liked to climb up trees to play. I almost fell down several times, but I was always supported by branches." Speaking of this memory, the village chief still had a smile on his face.
"Junior Brother Yunmo, is there something wrong with that tree?" Yun Qing responded quickly, and immediately asked via voice transmission.
"Brother must have found out, that tree is dying." Zhai Anmo said.
"I didn't find spiritual power or demon power on it, it looks like an ordinary old tree."
"No." Zhai Anmo denied Yun Qing's judgment, "It's a spiritual tree, at least it used to be."
As a natural spirit, Zhai Anmo couldn't be more sensitive to the source of spiritual energy. He discovered the abnormality of the tree when he entered the village, but because the spiritual energy was too weak, he was not sure whether the tree was an evil spirit or a tree spirit. , so I didn't say much, now it seems that the tree spirit should have once protected one side.
It is obviously not its own reason that it has come to this point now.
After dinner at the village chief's house, Wang Dahu rushed over to pick him up.
The sky was not yet completely dark, and his footsteps were obviously restless, and the movement of entering the door was urgent and fast, as if he was in a hurry.
Zhai Anmo got up and followed Wang Dahu out, and Yun Yuan also got up and followed quickly.
After walking tens of meters, Yun Yuan was the first to break the footsteps in the alley, "Brother Big Tiger, it's not dark yet, why are you in such a hurry?"
"It's nothing, I just want to go home early." Wang Dahu slowed down a bit, and his tone seemed a little guilty.
"Don't worry, the village chief has told us about it, and we've learned a little bit about it, and we'll try our best to help you." Yun Yuan walked two steps faster and patted him on the shoulder.
"Ah? You all know?" Wang Dahu raised his voice by two degrees in an instant, then looked around, then lowered his voice, his eyes were full of surprise, "Why did the village chief tell you this?"
Seeing Wang Dahu's reaction, Yun Yuan knew he was right, and continued: "Actually, we don't know very well. The village chief just said that strange things have always happened in the village recently."
"Yes." Wang Dahu's expression darkened, "I don't know if the lost children are still alive."
"The child is lost? What's going on?" Yun Yuan and Zhai Anmo looked at each other and continued to ask.
"It's a long story." He looked at the sky, and a look of panic flashed in his eyes, "It's getting late, let's go home first."
Wang Dahu's home is about 5 minutes' walk from the village head. It is in the yard next to the big banyan tree at the head of the village. When he opened the door, he saw a leaf of the banyan tree drooping inside his courtyard wall, casting a small shade of the tree. A well was opened in the shade, and the well was covered with a wooden plank, on which a layer of dead leaves fell.
Seeing that Zhai Anmo's eyes fell on the well, Wang Dahu explained: "This tree never shed its leaves before, and the water outlet here is good, so I drilled the well here. Ever since strange things happened in the village, it started to shed its leaves. These days are especially powerful, and I thought that I would have time to chop off this branch during the day."
"Baby's father is back." At this time, a woman in a blue shirt came out from the kitchen. She was not particularly good-looking, but her smile looked very comfortable. Seeing Zhai Anmo and the two of them, she smiled and said: "You two It must be a guest from afar, please come in."
"Hi, sister-in-law." Yun Yuan shouted with a smile, "My name is Yun Yuan, this is my senior brother Yun Mo, sorry to bother you tonight."
The woman covered her mouth and smiled even brighter, "Little brother is so sweet, you are polite." After that, she glanced at Zhai Anmo, smiled and nodded at him, and finally looked at Wang Dahu, "Dahu, you take the two of you Go and rest, I have prepared the water for washing and bathing. I will go and see if the doors and windows are closed."
After placing the two of them in two guest rooms in the backyard, Wang Dahu left.
When Zhai Anmo opened the window of this room, he could see the banyan leaves in the yard. As soon as he opened the window, he heard a knock on the door.
As soon as Zhai Anmo opened the latch with his hand, Yun Yuan slipped in and locked the door again, "Brother, this family is weird."
"Why did you say that?" Zhai Anmo asked.
"Did you notice what the woman called Wang Dahu just now? She called him Daddy." Yun Yuan said mysteriously, "But I just observed that there is no child in their family."
"Maybe the child just went out." Zhai Anmo raised his eyebrows.
Seeing that he didn't believe it, Yun Yuan was a little anxious, and continued: "I just took a peek at the layout of their house. Although there are some children's clothes in the house, they are all brand new and have never been worn. I also saw incense sticks and paper money."
"What do you think?" Zhai Anmo asked directly.
Yun Yuan replied, "I think their child may be one of the missing children."
Zhai Anmo smiled and was about to speak when there was a sudden commotion outside.
"Wow wow wow!"
Dogs raised by other families at the entrance of the village barked loudly.
After a while, a torch was lit, "Come here! Someone has entered the village."
For a while, the voices of people and dogs intersected, and the village that had just heard the needle drop became lively again.
x9879: "Host, the hero and heroine have entered the village."
Zhai Anmo shook his head slightly, but did not answer Yun Qing's question.
At this time, an old man with a cane walked out from the crowd. His back was slightly bent, but his eyes were clear and calm. Seeing him coming, the surrounding villagers made way for him.
