Chapter 1870: Something Wrong With the Village (Part 2)
"Are any of you Shangguan from Luokajin Township?" Just as they were suspicious, an old voice sounded. When they looked around, they saw a white-haired old man being supported slowly walking out of the village entrance.
She is an old woman, short in stature, with muscle atrophy visible to the naked eye, and she struggles to walk. Her originally sky-blue pupils have become yellow and turbid, and she looks exhausted.
"Yes, we are the investigation team sent by Luokajin Town." Chen Shanshan looked at the old man and smiled as gently as possible: "May I ask who you are?"
But the Dolma Elf suddenly stopped Chen Shanshan who was about to step forward to support her, making Chen Shanshan stunned.
"Who are you?" Compared with Chen Shanshan's gentle attitude, Zhuoma Elf's tone was much colder.
"Oh, hello, my lord." The old lady quickly made a salute and said, "The villain is the village head of this village. The adults have worked hard all the way. Please go in with the old man and take a rest. The room has been prepared for you. And hot water, oh. And of course, food."
"You're welcome, old man." Chen Shanshan's eyes lit up immediately. Along the way, she used the blessing of the wind to keep everyone on their way, exhausting her energy a lot. What she wants most now is to take a hot bath and have a good night's sleep.
But before he could say anything, the Dolma Elf said first, "So well prepared? Did you know we were coming?"
"Yes" the old lady smiled, showing her black and yellow teeth, "After all, there was an advance notice, and there must be a place to rest for you, sir, and the sun is going to set, why don't you adults go in first?" "
Chen Shanshan was taken aback, for some reason, this old woman who seemed harmless to humans and animals, when she laughed, somehow made people feel a little creepy
"No." Yang Rui, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke. As a fallen angel whose main gene is the Green Titan, he seemed very powerful, and when he took a light step in front of Chen Shanshan, he gave off a very heavy feeling.
"The Shangguan has orders. When we arrive, camp outside and wait for them!" Yang Rui smiled and said, "We'll come to bother you after we meet up."
"This..." The old lady was obviously taken aback, then looked at the soldiers behind her, and said quickly, "How can the adults be stationed outside?"
"It doesn't matter." Yang Rui said with a smile: "We are soldiers. We are used to it. We won't go in tonight. What about the soldier who reported the situation? Tell him to come out, we have something to ask him."
"Is the officer talking about Master Jerry?" The old lady smiled and said, "He is not in the village. It is said that he went to meet the officer who came to investigate from above. Didn't he meet you?"
"That's it." Yang Rui said with a smile: "Okay, we know, we will be stationed not far from our existence, please don't approach our tent at night, otherwise the soldiers on guard may hurt you."
These words made the expressions of the old woman and the villagers behind her change obviously.
"That's alright." The old woman smiled and said, "Since the officials have decided this way, I can't help it. If you have any orders, just inform the guard at the entrance of the village."
"Hmm..." Yang Rui nodded slightly, his expression became a little cold, as if he didn't want to continue talking, the old woman village head seemed to feel it too, and hurriedly bowed and left.
In this way, the group turned around and left the village entrance, found a corner of the mountain and set up a tent.
"I said, Brother Rui, why did you stop us from entering the village?" Chen Shanshan couldn't help but voice transmission.
"It's not to stop you, it's to stop you!" Yang Rui replied with a smile: "Didn't you find that almost no one of your teammates wants to enter the village?"
"Is there?" Chen Shanshan stared, why didn't she feel at all?
Looking at Yang Rui's speechless eyes, Chen Shanshan immediately lowered her head in embarrassment, coughed lightly and said, "Why?"
"Because there is a problem"
"Does it mean that the non-commissioned officer named Senjin hasn't arrived at the village yet?" Chen Shanshan rubbed her chin: "It's indeed a bit weird, but it may be because he was delayed outside because he didn't even enter the village. Isn't that an exaggeration?"
"It's not just that problem." Yang Rui sighed, "Didn't you realize that there is a problem with the timing of the old woman's appearance?"
"Forehead?"
Seeing that Chen Shanshan was still in a daze, Yang Rui couldn't help but want to knock her on the head, but the soldiers were not far away, this action was not very good, so he patiently said: "We just arrived, within two minutes, the old woman appeared."
"Didn't she say that? She is the village head, so she should come to welcome us when we come." When he said this, he froze, obviously realizing that something was wrong!
The old lady came too fast. Although she didn't enter the village, she could see it through her excellent vision at the entrance of the village. The size of the village is not small, almost equivalent to a small town. The appearance of the support, even if someone informs, it shouldn't arrive so soon, right?
Unless he was guarding the door from the beginning, but such a weak old man, even if he knew that there were soldiers coming from above, he wouldn't be guarding the door all the time
Combined with Sergeant Senjin and their disappearance for no reason, it is obvious that something is wrong in this village!
A few minutes later, in the tent that had been set up, a group of people gathered together and began to discuss today's events.
"You have also seen the situation, there is obviously something wrong with that village." Chen Shanshan murmured pretentiously.
In the circle of the team, they obviously looked at Chen Shanshan strangely.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Chen Shanshan couldn't help asking.
"I thought you didn't see it, Captain." In the team, the bull warrior Boer shook his head and looked at Chen Shanshan innocently.
Chen Shanshan looked at the other party and was silent for two seconds.
So it turns out that this stupid big guy can see that something is wrong?
"Why didn't you see it, sir?" Yang Rui said solemnly, "The gentleness to the old man is just because of the basic etiquette of respecting the old."
"Respect the elders?" A group of demons couldn't understand it even more, especially the Zhuoma elves. She glanced at each other faintly: "The chief is indeed very young, but there is no need to respect the elders, right? No one in our place is older than the village chief." ?”
The words "err" made both Yang Rui and Chen Shanshan choke. Thinking about it carefully, it was true. After all, if counted by annual rings, most of the people present are over ninety years old.
"Come on, tell me what to do next."
——
When Chen Shanshan and the others were discussing countermeasures in the tent, no one noticed that not far from the tent, a group of figures in gray cloaks were looking into the tent faintly.
"Captain. This should be a low-level soldier under a certain god force. Do you want to arrest him and ask?"
In the queue, a handsome woman asked. The woman's strange green eyes were obviously authentic undead.
"I don't need it for the time being." The man called the captain sat on the tree trunk, dragged his chin and looked into the tent, smiling slightly.
In the dark night, her pupils are also green, but with a vibrant emerald green, she is a wood elf!
