Chapter 267: A Barren Village That Does Not Accept Outsiders
Under the guidance of Lin Xiaorong, the two of us marched forward in the rain.
In the darkness, if Lin Xiaorong hadn't been there, the two of us might have rolled off the cliff long ago.
Fortunately, God was kind to me, and after walking a short distance, the downpour finally began to lighten up.
I don’t know how long we walked, but when I saw the wide road again, I almost shed tears.
I finally came out of the damn mountain forest over there, and I could finally see signs of human activity all around.
Even those plastic bags scattered everywhere look extra cute now.
"Ask your spiritual servant how far away the village she mentioned is!"
Although the road has been seen, it is already late at night and the place is already very deserted. How can there be any vehicles passing by at this time?
Being hungry and cold, the little Taoist priest could hardly wait to reach the village ahead. Even if there was nothing delicious in this village, there should be a pack of instant noodles.
"It's not far from here. It's about two or three miles. Just go over the small slope in that direction."
After communicating with Lin Xiaorong, I quickly said to the little Taoist priest.
"What are you waiting for!"
After hearing what I said, the little Taoist priest immediately became energetic, and I smiled and followed him directly.
Although both of us were almost exhausted now, when we thought about the fact that there would be food ahead, we didn’t know where the strength came from, and it only took more than ten minutes to reach the village.
outside.
"Let me tell you, if the two of us look like this now, if we go over and knock on the door, will we be regarded as savages?"
Seeing that we were about to enter the village, I suddenly started to feel a little uneasy.
It's late at night now, and the two of us are in this shape again. If we see those simple villagers, we will definitely scare them...
"No matter what, we two have no choice but to take a bath and change clothes, but do you have it?"
The little Taoist priest swallowed his saliva and rolled his eyes at me.
After saying that, he strode directly towards a farmhouse.
I smiled bitterly and could only follow him.
"Bang-bang-bang-"
What makes me feel strange is that the little Taoist priest knocked on the door for a long time, but there was no reply from the yard. Could it be that no one is at home?
"What's going on? Isn't this too much sleep?"
The little Taoist priest was a little confused and looked into the room through the crack in the door.
"Isn't it because no one is home?"
"It's impossible, I just saw the lights in the room turn on!"
The little Taoist priest continued to bang on the door while talking.
"Hello fellow countryman, we are strangers out for adventure. We got lost in the woods. We walked for several days before we finally got out. Can you please make it easier for us to stay here for one night?"
The little Taoist priest knocked on the door and shouted several times into the house.
But the strange thing is that although the lights in the room are on, there is still no sound.
Even the little Taoist priest is a little depressed, this person has gone too far...
"Forget it, let's find another one!"
Although it felt strange, I didn't think much about it.
After all, in this day and age, the world is declining and people are not as old as they used to be. Especially in such a deserted village, there are people who are reluctant to interact with strangers at night.
"Okay, okay! What a damn unlucky thing. I finally walked out and met such a tough guy..."
The little Taoist priest muttered as he chose a new farmer's house that seemed to have a relatively new house.
"Who is it?"
After knocking on the door a few times, the lights in the yard suddenly turned on, and then a man's voice came from the house. The little Taoist finally regained his energy.
"I'm sorry, fellow, we are new to exploring. We got lost in the nearby mountains and forests. We walked for several days before we finally got out. Could you please get us some food?"
"Are you foreigners?"
"That's right, we are here for travel and adventure!"
The little Taoist priest said quickly.
"I'm really sorry. We don't accept outsiders here. You'd better leave quickly and don't stay in this village for a long time!"
As soon as the little Taoist priest finished speaking, the man in the room suddenly said.
"What the hell!"
Now even the little Taoist priest is getting angry. This is too much.
Who hasn't been in trouble yet? Even if they can't accommodate us for the night, please give us something to eat.
"I'm really sorry, fellow, do you think this is okay? Can we spend money to buy some food? We have been trapped in the mountains and forests for many days, and we haven't eaten anything seriously in several days!"
Seeing that the little Taoist priest was about to lose his temper, I quickly made an excuse.
"You'd better leave quickly. We don't welcome outsiders here at night, and I don't have any extra food here!"
"Why am I like you? Aren't you just a mouthful? Are you the same? Don't you ever have any troubles?"
The little Taoist priest's bad temper immediately came to the fore, and these people really went too far.
But as soon as he finished saying this, all the lights in the yard went out, and now I was completely depressed.
"What the hell is this place? You guys are so fucking inhumane!"
Although it is said that people are willing to help at times like this, it is a sign of love, and if they are not willing to help, it is their duty, but their approach really left me speechless.
Somewhat disbelieving, I changed houses again, but what made me feel depressed was that no matter what I said, I never saw a single person.
The people in this village seem to have an inexplicable fear of outsiders. No matter how nice the two of us say, they always refuse to show their faces.
"What the hell is this place?"
A gust of night wind blew, and the two of us were really cold and hungry.
The little Taoist priest cursed angrily.
"No, have you noticed that there seems to be such a yellow talisman on the door of every house?"
Although I also felt very depressed, I soon discovered a strange place.
"Yellow Talisman? What Yellow Talisman? Why didn't I see it just now?"
After hearing what I said, the little Taoist stood up and walked to the door of a nearby farmhouse and observed it carefully.
"What's the use of this crap? It's just an ordinary ghost painting charm..."
The little Taoist priest also comes from a famous family. Although he is not very proficient in Talisman Taoism, he can still tell whether it is useful or not.
"There is indeed something wrong with the drawing of this talisman, but this is a genuine soul-soothing talisman..."
After taking the talisman from the little Taoist priest's hand, I frowned tightly...
