Although Sheng An Ning has a noble status, he endured so much hardship, which made Bai Yu and the others amazed and envious.The two guards were full of energy, and they were also very vigilant, afraid of any accidents.

Bai Yu followed Sheng An Ning very carefully, she knew that she couldn't make any more mistakes, otherwise the two guards might have objections if Sheng An Ning didn't say anything.

Finally, seeing an open field, Bai Yu exclaimed, "Here we are, we have arrived, I have already seen that small village!"

Sheng Anning and the others looked in the direction she pointed, and indeed they saw a faintly visible house.

After walking for a while, I saw an old man and walked forward slowly.

Sheng An Ning hurried forward, wanting to ask.The guard saw her movement and hurried forward to block her.

"Miss Sheng, do you want to ask if this old couple is from Shili Village?" It was Wei who looked at her and asked.

Sheng Anning nodded, "Although Bai Yu is sure that this is Shili Village, it was already a year or two ago when he came here, and I'm also afraid that he may have misremembered it. So I'll be more at ease when I ask, so as not to make detours in vain."

"Miss Sheng's subordinates understand what you mean. Let me do this kind of thing. You must not have the intention of harming others, and you must not have the intention of preventing others." The guard looked at the old man in front of him and said softly.

Sheng An Ning frowned, thinking that I was worrying too much, how could such an old man hurt himself?
"It's not necessary, it seems that he is a loyal and honest person."

"Let the subordinates pass!" The guard insisted on his own ideas.They didn't dare to let Sheng Aning make a slight mistake, otherwise they wouldn't be able to make a deal.

After speaking, the guard walked over directly, overtook the old man, and stood in front of him.

The old man also stopped, looked at the guards, and did not speak.Sheng An Ning also walked over and stood by the side, seeing a vicissitudes of life face.But the surprise is that the old man didn't feel any panic when he saw them, which is very rare.

The guard looked at him and cupped his hands, "Old man, what's the name of the village in front of you?"

Sheng Anning became displeased, and said softly, "Be more polite."

The old man looked at the guards, then at the crowd, shook his head, and then pointed to his ears.

The guard wondered, "Is it Shili Village in front?"

Sheng Anning said to the guards, "The old man probably meant that he was deaf and couldn't hear what you said, right?"

The guard nodded, "It should be like this!"

Everyone was helpless, because the old man couldn't understand their words, so he couldn't tell them whether they lost their way or not.After thinking about it for a while, Sheng Anning said to everyone, "Since we've all come here, no matter whether we form a team or not, we have to go forward. If we really can't find Shili Village, then we can count as a harvest if we bring some herbs back."

Bai Yu still said firmly, "I can't remember wrongly, it is that village. Although some changes have taken place in a year or two, the mountain has not changed. I remember it clearly."

Sheng Anning looked at the old man, pointed to his ear, and said politely: "Grandpa, can't you hear me?"

The old man nodded, "I didn't speak."

Bai Yu wondered, "Could it be that not only can't hear, but also can't speak?"

Sheng An Ning glared at her, "You too, don't have such an attitude, it's not polite to say such things no matter whether the old man can hear you or not. Let's leave quickly, it's getting late."

Because of the wolves, it was delayed for at least an hour, so now we must hurry up, otherwise we may not be able to return to the town before dark.

Everyone hurried forward, and the old man slowly followed behind.Sheng Anning suddenly looked back at the old man, only to find that the old man was also staring at them.Seeing Sheng Anning's eyes, he lowered his head and continued walking.

I thought this old man was a bit strange, but Sheng Anning didn't think too much about it, perhaps he didn't see strangers very often, so he drew his attention!

Bai Yu said softly to Sheng Anning, "Miss Sheng, do you think that old man behind is a bit strange?"

"Tell me your opinion." Sheng Anning said while walking without looking back.

"I think this old man looks deaf and dumb, and he is an honest and honest person. But I think there is something wrong with his eyes. Ordinary old people will be a little flustered when they see outsiders, but this old man is too calm. waist, but the steps are not faltering at all, even a little light."

"Maybe you're overthinking it! But I also think that the old man is not an ordinary mountain farmer, but a person with a certain amount of wisdom. Of course, we can't be defensive against him just because of a look in his eyes. It's just an old man, we There's no need to be too nervous."

After Sheng Anning said that, what else could Bai Yu say, he could only nod his head and continue walking forward.

Bai Yu stopped in her tracks, "Look, it's the big banyan tree. Let me tell you that I remember correctly. The tree looked like this when I came last time."

"That's good, let's go in quickly!" Sheng An Ning nodded.

The guard came to Bai Yu's side and said softly, "It's best to find it, otherwise you won't be able to bear this responsibility."

Bai Yu snorted coldly, "Although I don't have much ability, I'm not a fool, believe it or not!"

After finishing speaking, she walked straight forward, ignoring the guard.Bai Yu knew very well in his heart that the two were simply looking down on her, because people like him had no abilities.Even if she was saved among the wolves, it was not because of pity, but because of the order of St. Anning.So Bai Yu thinks that there is no need for him to be grateful to those who look down on him.Why bother to please?

Sheng Anning looked while walking, but he didn't see anyone.Although it's getting late, it's not normal for every family to close their doors!

She stopped in her tracks, "Why are there so few people?"

The guard nodded, "There is a weird atmosphere in this village, and I think it's a bit abnormal."

"Since we're here, we must find out." Sheng Anning said, and went directly to knock on the door of a house.

There was a barking sound from inside, but no one came to open the door. After knocking for a while, they could only give up and move on.

Walking ahead, a middle-aged man was carrying a load of firewood. Seeing this, they turned around and left.

"Brother, please wait a moment." Sheng Anning called loudly, not wanting to miss any chance.

The man ran away without looking back.It was because he hurriedly chased after him, but he didn't expect that man to leave the load of firewood and flee quickly.

Sheng Anning stopped the guards, not wanting to disturb the people here.
