Or maybe she did it during the day, which we don't know.
After leaving the old lady's house, we seemed to be aimlessly walking along the small path. We originally wanted to catch a turtle in a jar, but we didn't expect such a result.
"I didn't expect her to be so smart. Where should we go now?"
The five men were the most important, and the rest were insignificant people, but I suddenly wanted someone very important.
He instantly stopped and shouted, "Actually, I think the biggest culprit is still the village chief! "It's the village chief who lied to their Abba!"
"Hey, not only did you say such an important clue late, but you even said it so loudly. Do you think that we didn't look miserable enough?"
Xu Zizai covered my mouth with his hands and looked around vigilantly, as if someone was about to jump out.
The night was still dark, and he could still hear the occasional chirping of insects. It didn't seem like anyone would come out at all.
But even so, Xu Zizai didn't have any intention of relaxing. He only slowly let go of my mouth and whispered, "I have this feeling that someone is following us and doing things with caution."
I nodded slowly and followed behind them.
The Village Head's house was a little different from what we had imagined, but it had a lot of meaning to it.
The person who opened the door was still an old lady. However, this time, the old lady seemed to be much gentler and her manners were much better as well.
Xiao Hong had already subconsciously hid behind me, so I was the only one who came forward to converse with her.
"Hello, we are looking for the Village Chief."
The old lady's gaze gently fell on us. She didn't seem aggressive at all. She even had a hint of a smile on her face.
"Looking for my wife? He's inside, I'll take you in! It's windy outside, I'll go get you some hot tea later. You people in the city probably aren't used to the weather here. "
The old lady opened the door and let us in. She walked alone in front of us, her back looking very elegant, very different from any villagers she had ever met.
When they reached the second floor, the old lady stopped walking for a long time. "My wife is at the very end of the hall. You can go directly over there. I'll get you some hot tea first."
After saying that, without waiting for us to react, he turned around and walked down the stairs.
The second floor was also very strange. It was a long and narrow corridor, and if it wasn't for the dim light, it would have been quite scary.
"Tell me, is the Village Chief alright?" "Why do you live in such a place? Feng Shui obviously has a problem. A man like me would feel a chill on his body."
Xu Zizai's voice was not loud, but it was not soft either. The moment he opened his mouth, the voice spread out continuously along the corridor, making it even more terrifying.
"Can you shut your mouth!"
I glared at him before walking forward. This was already our final destination. If there wasn't any response from the village head, then we would really have to hold on to the river.
Xiao Hong was very considerate as she walked by my side, causing me to feel a little relieved. When we reach the end, we stopped.
It was all because of that weird voice.
That faintly discernible sound pierced into your ears. There was no way to not feel awkward. My entire body started to stiffen as I stared at the door in front of me without moving.
Xiao Hong's breathing became a lot lighter.
Only the egret looked at me confusedly, as if it didn't understand why we suddenly stopped. Just when it was about to speak, Xu Zizai covered its mouth with his hand.
However, no egret spoke, but someone still broke the silence.
The old lady was holding a tray with a pot of tea in her hand and several cups that overlapped each other as she walked over slowly. If it wasn't for the clear traces on her face, one would think that the person who appeared was a beautiful lady.
Her footsteps were light, as if she hadn't made a sound when she came over.
"What is it? My wife is inside. If you don't go in, are you waiting for me? "
The old lady's voice was gentle and gentle like a spring breeze, making us feel even more awkward. At this moment, a man's voice sounded from within the room.
Instantly, the few of us looked at the old lady.
Unexpectedly, as if she didn't hear him, the old lady knocked on the door indifferently with one hand and shouted softly, "Liu Qiang! There's someone looking for you outside! You see the guests first! It's been a long time since someone came to your place. If you don't open the door now, wouldn't that be rude? "
Just as the old lady finished speaking, the sound of something falling on the floor came from inside. It was a long while before the door was opened.
The so-called village chief only revealed his true face now. Looking at the familiar mark on his face, I knew he didn't recognize the wrong person.
"Zhi Xia, who did you bring?"
Although the village chief was old, he still looked very energetic. He was full of energy when he spoke, but unfortunately, the part on the back of his head seemed to be short of breath.
The old lady's face turned cold the moment the Village Head came out. It was a real reaction from a stranger, and her tone was neither cold nor hot.
"These kids are looking for you. I think they're all good kids, but you're not opening the door. What are you trying to do?"
The village chief paused for a moment before leading us in enthusiastically. After entering, we quickly discovered a problem. Previously, we clearly heard a woman's voice, but right now, it's completely empty.
Could it be that the Village Chief could make such a sound himself? This is almost impossible.
The old lady poured each of us a cup of tea. The tea smelled very good, drifting in the air and making people calm down.
"If anything happens to you all, feel free to say it. It has been a long time since I've seen an outsider. As soon as I see you all, I feel happy."
The old lady held the teacup in one hand but did not seem like she was going to drink it. Her wrinkled eyes, however, were like autumn water, giving off a feeling of gentleness.
The Village Chief looked at the old lady with an expression of infatuation, as if he had seen the most beautiful time of his life.
However, there were too many evil things in that pair of eyes. It didn't give people a feeling of deep love, but rather a desecration that made people feel extremely disgusted.
"I want to ask you about Ah Fang and Ah Min, do you mind?"
When I said those words, the Village Head's expression immediately turned cold.
