Chapter 163 Entering the village to understand the situation
"Stop being so nagging, let's get to work."
Lan Annuo took the three of them into the space, and walked forward along the path alone with a vine whip.
After passing through a dense forest, the entire sight suddenly became brighter.
Surrounded by mountains, the mountains are surrounded by colorful flowers, red, pink, and green, blending together to create a beautiful scene.
Before Lan Annuo even got close to the village entrance, he could hear the sound of children laughing. At the same time, he could also hear dogs barking and cats meowing. One or two bees could be vaguely seen gathering nectar on the surrounding flowers.
There is a harmonious atmosphere, and there is no hint that there is a large-scale disappearance of people here.
Lan Annuo was an unfamiliar face and was spotted immediately as soon as he stepped into the village entrance.
Some of the older children screamed loudly for the adults, while the rest of the younger children gathered together curiously and looked at Lan Annuo.
Lan Annuo glanced around and found nothing unusual for the time being.
Soon there were adults running out of the village in a hurry.
Looking at the dark crowd opposite, Lan Annuo remained calm and collected. This was when the crowd parted and an old woman came out.
The old woman looked at Lan Annuo first, and then asked respectfully: "I wonder what your lord is doing here?"
Lan Annuo showed his belt and said: "Understand the situation."
The old woman squinted her eyes and carefully looked at the appearance of the waistband, and then understood Lan Annuo's identity after being informed by the young man on the side.
He said respectfully: "It turns out to be Lord Immortal. Please don't be surprised if you miss me from afar."
Lan Annuo noticed that after she revealed her identity, the surrounding villagers looked at her with a bit of fear in their eyes.
Lan Annuo didn't pay attention and said directly: "No need to say more polite words, let's talk about the situation of this matter."
The old woman was supported by her grandson. After hearing Lan Annuo's straightforward words, she said: "Master Immortal is late, this matter has been resolved."
Lan Annuo frowned and asked: "Has it been solved?"
The young man next to him cupped his fists, saluted Lian Annuo, and replied, "Yes, this matter was resolved by the county magistrate and Mr. Xianchang as early as last year."
Lan Annuo looked around and said, "But I didn't see a large number of young adults here?"
"Master Xianchang doesn't know something. The terrain here is special. Flowers are in bloom all year round, which attracts many bees to collect honey. The county magistrate specially introduced a lot of bees to make honey for this purpose. The honey produced in our county is smaller than that in nearby cities.
Because of its reputation, most of the labor force in our village has been recruited to work in the bee farm."
Aotian was eating dried fruit in the space and said: "Really or not, now that everything has been solved, why is the sect still hanging on to this task? Is it possible that our trip was in vain?"
The expression on Lan Annuo's face became a little majestic, and many surrounding villagers subconsciously lowered their heads to avoid her sight.
Lan Annuo: "The sect's mission is like this. I hope you can let me go in to check the situation and tell you the location of the bee farm."
"Yes, yes, please come in, Master Immortal."
The young man led the way and led Lan Annuo into the village.
The village is not big and the population is not large. It is daytime and most of the villagers are working in the fields. When they see Lan Annuo coming, they look at her curiously.
Lan Annuo asked casually: "Your place is not big, but the population is quite large!"
"It's all thanks to the county magistrate. Now every household has a surplus, and the children can naturally be raised, so there will be more people."
"How big is the bee farm? Why does it seem like most of the people in your village are old people, children and women?"
"Mr. Xianchang, that bee farm is quite large, covering several hills, so there will naturally be more people in need.
Not only our village, but also many nearby villages have transferred a lot of people!"
"Tell me about the previous cases of missing persons!"
"Before the introduction of a large number of bees, our county was extremely poor. Basically, our family's food depended on the harvest from the ground. But as you have seen, Mr. Xianchang, not only is there little land in our village, but also the crops grown in the ground are
There wasn't much food coming out, and basically every household had to live with their belts tightened. Such a life was really hard.
There is no way, the uncles and uncles in the village can only go out to do odd jobs to make money, but odd jobs can be encountered every day. In order to survive, the uncles and uncles can only go to further places to find work, that is, this
Something will happen if you go.
But fortunately, the county magistrate asked the immortal chief for help and rescued the remaining people."
"How many people died in your village?"
The young man said sadly: "Seven or eight uncles died."
"Do you know the specific reason?"
"None of the surviving uncles are willing to mention this matter again, and the county magistrate, in order to appease us and for the reputation of our county, prohibits private discussion of this matter, so we don't know what happened, but anyway
Not a good thing."
Lian Annuo stared at him and asked, "Are you really not clear at all?"
The man lowered his head and said nothing. Lan Annuo clicked his tongue softly, and the man's body trembled.
He looked around and whispered: "I heard that it is a monster that comes from nowhere and specializes in sucking the blood and energy of men. Many people have suffered."
"What monster?"
The man seemed to have thought of some horrific scene, and said in horror: "I don't know, I just know that there are six legs, each leg is stronger than a man, and a pair of huge wings. A single flap can set off a hurricane. A pair of
Its eyes are as big as the sun in the sky, and just one look at it can make people jump into its mouth in a daze and let it eat."
Aotian and Lubai in the space were confused after hearing this, wondering what kind of Warcraft it was. Why did they feel like they had never heard of it before?
Lan Annuo: "Do you know who the county magistrate hired to solve the problem?"
"I heard that he is an immortal with golden elixir cultivation."
Llan'ano: "Tell me the location of the bee farm."
After obtaining the location of the bee farm, Lan Annuo tore open a rush talisman and disappeared in full view of everyone, causing an uproar.
Following the shocked mouths of the children, they grew older.
After the young man over there saw Lan Annuo leave, he wiped the sweat from his temples and returned home.
In the dark little room, the old woman was carrying honey and feeding the bees in front of her. When she saw her grandson coming back, she asked, "He's gone."
"Yes."
"What did you ask?"
The man explained everything about the conversation just now.
"What do you think of this immortal leader's strength?"
"It looks like it's only in the foundation building stage."
"We must not take it lightly. If we ruin your arrangements, neither of us will get anything good to eat."
"clear."
A piece of yellow and white talisman paper was stuck on an inconspicuous place at the corner, and Lan Annuo listened to all this quietly in the distance.
