On the streets of Shimen Village, the three of Chu Nan ran so fast that Mu Pengfei and the others had no time to catch up, so they turned into the alley and disappeared.

At this moment, the cock crowed, and Miao Qi wondered: "When I searched just now, I didn't see any livestock. Why is there a cock crow at this time?"

As soon as these words came out, the other people felt chills all over their bodies. All these phenomena showed that the strangeness of Shimen Village was extraordinary.

"Brother, what should we do now? Are we going to catch that Chu Xiong?" Miao Qi asked Mu Pengfei.

Mu Pengfei stood quietly, looking at the sky in the distance, a crescent moon had already appeared there, dawn was coming, they didn't have much time.

"Junior Brother Hu, Junior Brother Wang, how do I treat you on weekdays?" Mu Pengfei asked suddenly.

Hu and Wang looked at each other, but Junior Brother Hu cupped his fists and said:

"Since entering the village, I have been taken care of by Brother Mu."

"That's good. Now, two of you, choose one of you to put on this bamboo hat as a reward for me." Mu Pengfei said expressionlessly.

As soon as Mu Pengfei finished speaking, Hu and Wang's faces turned pale, and beads of sweat soon wet their skirts.

Miao Qi stood aside and didn't say a word, but he had unknowingly blocked the escape route of the two of Hu Wang.

"Brother, we can catch Chu Xiong and the others!" Junior Brother Wang screamed, he didn't want to die.

"It's too late, it's almost dawn." Mu Pengfei said with a sigh.

When Junior Brother Wang heard the words, his face became even more terrified. He stayed there for a while, then he turned around and grabbed Junior Brother Hu's clothes, knelt down and begged:

"Senior Brother Hu, I have an [-]-year-old mother and a young child who needs to be raised. Please, can you wear this bamboo hat?"

Junior Brother Hu was also very scared, but when he saw Junior Brother Wang begging him like this, he was in a mess and didn't know what to do.

"Giggle!"

The cock crowed again.

"Whoever wears it, hurry up, don't force me to do it myself, it will look ugly then!" Mu Pengfei urged.

Junior Brother Wang kept pleading to Junior Brother Hu, but Junior Brother Hu finally softened his heart, he didn't want to kill his fellow disciples, he sighed and said, "Okay, I'll wear it, Junior Brother Wang, help me get the bamboo hat."

Seeing that Junior Brother Hu agreed, Junior Brother Wang had tears in his eyes, but the corners of his mouth raised unnaturally, and he was very happy. He quickly picked up the bamboo hat and was about to put it on for Junior Brother Hu.

"Wait, I have something to ask." Just as the bamboo hat was about to be put on, Junior Brother Hu suddenly said.

Junior Brother Wang held the bamboo hat in his hand, wishing he could put it directly on Junior Brother Hu's head, but he knew that he couldn't be impatient at this time, so he said one by one:
"Senior Brother Hu, if you have anything to say, just say it, I will definitely agree!"

"I'm never married, but I still have an old mother in my family. After I die, I don't ask you to take care of my old mother. You just need to bring her some silver taels that I haven't used up in Jiuji Mountain."

After Junior Brother Hu finished speaking, he thought of his old mother who was still waiting for him to return from his studies, but now that he was about to die in a foreign land, the tears that he had persisted for a long time finally shed at this moment.

"Okay! I'll definitely bring it for you, and I'll add some money at that time!" Junior Brother Wang put the bamboo hat on Junior Brother Hu's head after he finished speaking.

The three of Mu Pengfei stared at Junior Brother Hu. After a long time, they didn't see any change in Junior Brother Hu. Mu Pengfei asked:
"Junior Brother Hu, what's wrong?"

Junior Brother Hu touched his body, he didn't turn into a scarecrow, and he didn't feel any discomfort, so he happily replied:

"It's okay, I didn't become a scarecrow!"

"Senior brother, it seems that we were deceived by that Chu Xiong!" Miao Qi said angrily.

Mu Pengfei frowned. Could it be that he was really deceived?Now that it's almost dawn, what should I do if I can't complete the task?
"Junior Brother Wang?" At this moment, Junior Brother Hu realized that there seemed to be something wrong with Junior Brother Wang.

Mu Pengfei and Miao Qi also looked at Junior Brother Wang. Junior Brother Wang was standing at this moment, motionless. After Junior Brother Hu asked, he didn't respond at all.

It was too dark at night, so Junior Brother Hu couldn't help but leaned forward and looked carefully at Junior Brother Wang.

"Ah! Junior Brother Wang has turned into a scarecrow!"

Junior Brother Hu shouted loudly, and Mu Pengfei and Miao Qi also walked closer, only to see that Junior Brother Wang really turned into a scarecrow.

Under Junior Brother Wang's clothes, his body has turned into straw, his face has also turned into straw, only the eyeballs are still moving, other parts have turned into straw, and he can no longer speak.

Slowly, blood flowed out from the gaps in the straw, staining the straw red. Now he is a bleeding scarecrow!

"When did he get recruited? It was obviously the bamboo hat that Junior Brother Hu was wearing!" Miao Qi said in amazement.

Mu Pengfei couldn't figure it out, but Junior Brother Hu had mixed feelings in his heart. He had already planned to sacrifice, but now it wasn't him who died. He didn't know whether he should be happy or not.

"Junior Brother Wang, don't worry, if you leave, I will help you take care of your mother and children at home."

Seeing that Junior Brother Wang's eyes could still move, Junior Brother Hu promised him that he hoped that Junior Brother Wang could hear and go on the road with peace of mind.

"Heh." Miao Qi laughed untimely.

"Senior Brother Miao, Junior Brother Wang is like this, why are you laughing?" Junior Brother Hu said angrily.

Miao Qi sighed and told him:
"You are such an idiot, you believe everything others say, this junior brother Wang, he is originally from a wealthy family in the county, he has many fathers and children, he does not need his nursing mother, and he is not yet married, there are no young children at all. , he was just lying to you!"

"Ah?!" Junior Brother Hu looked at the scarecrow in front of him, and couldn't believe it. Junior Brother Wang was crying just now, but he was lying to him!
…………

The residence of the three of Chu Nan.

"Brother, why are you so sure we won't die?" Zheng Yuee asked softly, she slowly extended her hand along the edge of the bed towards Chu Nan, and finally held Chu Nan's hand.

It was very unnatural for Chu Nan to be secretly held by a woman. She didn't want to hurt Zheng Yue'e's face in front of Yan Lin, so she quietly pulled her hand out.

"Because Mu Pengfei doesn't want to die either, so we won't die." Chu Nan said lightly.

"Mu Pengfei doesn't want to die, so we won't die?" Yan Lin's head hurts, she can't figure it out, what kind of logic is this?

And Zheng Yue'e was stunned for a moment, and seemed to understand something in a moment, and once again marveled at Chu Xiong's wisdom and grasp of human nature.

After Zheng Yue'e understood what Chu Nan meant, she no longer worried about the task, but moved her body to Chu Nan's side again. Now she likes to tease this shy big man.

Seeing that the two of them were so calm, Yan Lin felt relieved unconsciously. She felt that following Uncle Chu really gave her a sense of security.

On the other side, Mu Pengfei ordered Hu junior brother to bring the scarecrow and bamboo hat, and rush to the residence, ready to hand over the task to the village chief.

After they left, several eyeballs appeared on the wall, proudly boasting:

"With my thousand-eyed god, my master is invincible!"
