Ma Danna and little Luo Sang secretly glanced at each other, their eyes full of cunning.
Although they couldn't tell whether the unexpected intruders were good or bad, human or demon, they knew when they heard Feng Yi pretending to be stupid that he must have discovered something and was deliberately teasing the other party.
"I'm sorry to disturb your rest."
The old man did not refuse and took the lead in walking in. Later, he said to the two people at the end of the line: "You guys should reinstall the door. In such a cold weather, if you freeze for a night, you may die."
The two young men nodded in agreement, looked around for tools, and jingled to install the door.
The old man and others were sitting on one side, facing Feng Yi and the others.
"It's freezing cold here, where are you going?"
The old man asked after looking at the three of them carefully.
"Hey, now that we have been experiencing wars for many years, life is difficult, so our family went to the south to work."
Feng Yi sighed and said: "It's not the New Year. I wanted to come back and visit the grave of my ancestors, so I rushed back.
We encountered wind and snow on the way, and there happened to be a ruined temple here, so we took a rest for the night and set off again after dawn."
"oh?"
The old man's eyes moved and he asked: "Where is your home? Of course, if it's inconvenient, you don't need to tell me."
"What's so inconvenient about this? It's not a strange place."
Feng Yi smiled: "Shixia Town is just ahead, not far away."
Not only the old man, but also the expressions of everyone else with him changed. The two young guys who nailed the door even froze.
"What, what's the problem?"
Feng Yi asked with a deliberately confused look.
"No...ahem, um, what's your last name, little brother? How long have you been away from home?"
The old man coughed lightly and said, "My surname is Hu, and my name is only one character."
"Hello, Uncle Hu, my name is Feng Yi."
"Well, Feng Yi, is there anyone else in your family?"
Hu Xian asked.
"Either he died in the war, or he died early, and there is no one left in his family."
Feng Yi said sadly: "If we hadn't lost our relatives at home, we wouldn't have gone to the south. After all, it's safer there.
It has been three years since I came out now, and I thought it had been too long since I went home, so I came back to take a look."
"So that's it. Then I advise you and your family of three not to go back."
Hu Xian said slowly.
Feng Yi showed a stunned expression: "Why? Did something happen to the town?"
Hu Xian paused while stroking his beard and said with a forced smile: "I heard that some troops went to Shixia Town, it seems they were for something, and many people died for it...
Now I don’t know whether I have found the thing or not. Maybe those evil people haven’t left yet. If you go, wouldn’t it be like a sheep entering a tiger’s mouth?”
Feng Yi frowned: "How could this be? Since I was a child, I have never heard of anything so precious in this town."
"Maybe it appeared after you left, or maybe the army heard some rumors. Anyway, it's no longer safe there."
Hu Xian glanced at Ma Danna and said, "Look at how beautiful your wife is, there's no guarantee that those evil people won't have any evil intentions.
Since there are no relatives at home, it’s better not to go.”
Ma Danna blushed when she heard the other party's words. She hesitated for a moment and was too embarrassed to explain, but then she secretly guessed that the old man and his family should know about the tiger demon causing trouble in Shixia Town, so they advised them not to go back. She felt good about it.
of.
But at the beginning he kept saying that there were no monsters in this world...
Is it possible that he wants to hide something, or that they are monsters in the first place?
Thinking of this, she took a closer look at everyone's appearance. Hey, their eyes were slender and their chins were pointed. They were all somewhat similar. They really looked like some kind of animal.
The strange thing is, why is there no strange smell?
Feng Yi was silent for a moment after hearing this, then frowned and said: "If this is true, then it is indeed impossible to go back. Fortunately, I met you, otherwise it would be a blessing or a misfortune...
But Mr. Hu, why are you moving your family in this icy and snowy environment, and you seem to be in such a hurry? Could it be that something happened to your place?"
Hu Xian sighed: "Feng Yi, you are right. The town we live in is not far from Shixia Town. We can barely be called neighboring towns.
Our family is harmless and honest. We run a small business and live a relatively prosperous life.
However, my son has a reckless temperament and accidentally provokes the bullies in the town. They are notorious in the fish and meat village. They usually want to seize our family's property, but they have never found an opportunity.
This time I had a pretext and decided to kill our whole family. Fortunately, I reacted quickly and escaped with my whole family, so I survived."
When Hu Xian spoke, a young man lowered his head in shame. Apparently he was Hu Xian's son.
"So that's it."
Feng nodded: "We are destined to meet each other. Uncle Hu, since we both have families and can't go back, we can go together.
The north is too dangerous now, why don't you come with us to the south, and we can look after each other on the way."
Hearing this, Hu Xian was stunned for a moment, and the people around him also had different expressions. After a while, Hu Xiancai said: "This matter is of great importance. It is related to the future rise and fall of our Hu family, so we have to consider it carefully."
"As it should be."
Feng Yi didn't force it.
After chatting some more, the night was getting darker and everyone was a little tired, so they went to sleep with the fire in the middle as a boundary.
Before going to bed, Feng Yi gave Ma Danna and Luo Sang a reassuring look. The two women felt relieved and closed their eyes.
Madonna was originally very cautious and maintained a clear sense of reason. This is also the vigilance that practitioners must have.
But not long after, a faint strange fragrance came, and Ma Danna felt her eyelids were heavy, and then she lost consciousness.
After a while, the Hu family boy who had been sleeping slowly sat up, checked the condition of the three of them and said softly: "They are all asleep."
"Elder, how should we deal with the three of them? Do we need to..."
"They are all ordinary people and they have no ill intentions towards us. Please don't cause trouble."
Hu Xian said calmly.
"Elder, if we go further south, we will have to exit the customs. Do we really have to leave here and go to the customs?"
A charming female voice asked.
"What can we do if we don't leave? That smelly Taoist priest deliberately framed us in order to provoke a fight. Fortunately, the descendant of the Zhuge family is kind-hearted and let us go, but the price is that we can no longer live there..."
Hu Xian's son spoke.
"It's not all you. You fooled the other party and almost killed us!"
"Okay, the other party is deliberately trying to trick us. Even if Hu Miao is not there, others will be tricked. Just say a few words."
Another man in his thirties said: "But what I didn't expect was that there was such a terrifying thing there... Fortunately, we ran fast."
He deliberately lowered his voice for the next few words, obviously feeling guilty.
"In troubled times, it is becoming increasingly difficult to find a place to stay..."
Before Hu Xian finished speaking, he was suddenly stunned because Feng Yi, who was supposed to be sleeping, suddenly sat up...
