Having said this, Li Zheng smiled naively at Wei Zi and Feng Danyuan: "Children are not sensible. When they see the two of them looking like the immortals in the New Year paintings, they treat them as monsters."
Feng Danyuan and Wei Zi didn't dare to talk to each other - not only did they not dare, they were also afraid that if Li Zheng's words changed, they would forget what they said before and start over again.
Fortunately, Li Zheng continued to talk.
"Then, just like Shuimo Village, people in several nearby villages disappeared. However, not all of them were gone. There were still old people and children left behind. But when this happened in the village, who would dare to stay?
Those who can walk have left. Nowadays, there are really no people in those villages except those who are too old to walk."
"You think, if such a scary thing happens, can we not be afraid? Hey, this life is already difficult, but now, it is really impossible to survive..."
Li Zheng was sighing for a long time. Seeing that Feng Danyuan and Wei Zi were silent, he couldn't help but said: "Don't you two think this is very strange?"
Feng Danyuan and Wei Zi finally confirmed, oh, it's all said and done.
"It's really strange." Wei Zi confirmed Li Zheng's words. How could this living person suddenly disappear?
"Since it's so strange, you should leave as soon as possible." Solving the case is a matter for the government, and Feng Danyuan is not interested in it. If he has to express an opinion, he only has this opinion: If a gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall, the danger will be obvious.
, why don’t you run away quickly?
"Hey, it's hard to leave my homeland..."
"Why is it hard to leave? If you disappear like the villagers in other villages, don't you have to leave your homeland? If you move trees to death, people will move to death. If you have to hang yourself here, then don't worry about whether things are strange or not."
This is the reason why Feng Danyuan doesn't like to meddle in other people's business. There are obviously better choices, but he just has a stubborn mind and can't change his mind. So what can he do?
Is he mad at them, or are they mad at him?
He is not a Bodhisattva and has no responsibility to save all sentient beings.
Li Zheng was dumbfounded.
Why didn't this hero follow the hero's routine? Where did he draw his sword to help when the road was rough?
They just didn't want to leave, so they wanted to ask him to stay and help them!
Feng Danyuan did not continue to struggle with this matter. He quickly changed the topic: "How do you make a living on weekdays?"
"Just plant some land, herd some sheep, and live a full and hungry life." Li Zheng was very disappointed with Feng Danyuan's attitude. He no longer had the passion to talk endlessly.
Feng Danyuan was also very disappointed. This was really a poor place and it was a dream to expect to make some money here.
"How far is the county seat from here?"
"It's far away. It will take us two days and one night to walk!"
"Where's the ox cart?" Feng Danyuan originally wanted to say horses, but when he thought of the poverty here, he suddenly felt that horses were unrealistic.
"There is no bullock cart. We only have one mule in the village, which is used for work, but we can't bear to let it haul people and goods. Besides, we don't go to the county town. Things in the county town are expensive and we can't afford them...
.”
Feng Danyuan no longer wanted to talk any more.
He ended the conversation with silence.
But Li Zheng was unwilling to give in, and after holding it in for a long time, he finally said: "Hero, you are so powerful, can you help us drive away the monsters?"
