The Jinyiwei who is rampant in another world

Chapter 323 It's a mystery!

() "Master! Excuse me, is this Huangyanshu Village?" Xiao Chen came to an old man with dull eyes and asked softly.

Looking at the old man's body that could be blown away by a gust of wind, Xiao Chen swallowed. He was worried that the old man would die inexplicably in front of him in the next moment. Be careful and scare the old man to death.

But after Xiao Chen asked, he found that the old man didn't respond, he didn't even blink his eyelids. Of course, Xiao Chen could be sure that he was alive, even though his breathing and heartbeat were so low that he couldn't hear it. But Xiao Chen can still be sure that the object in front of him that resembles a corpse is still a living person.

Seeing the old man who was completely unresponsive, Xiao Chen bit the bullet and shouted a few words louder, but the result was still the same, the old man still ignored Xiao Chen like a stone statue, Xiao Chen scratched When I scratched my head and wondered whether to go to the other old man's side to try, the old man on the other side spoke first.

..

"Stop barking, that damn old ghost is deaf, no matter how hard he barks, he won't be able to hear it." The old man reminded Xiao Chen with a voice like a broken bellows with his dry lips slightly parted.

Xiao Chen was taken aback, scratched his head with a wry smile, and said in secret: "It turns out he is a deaf man, no wonder I didn't respond to how I shouted." Just when Xiao Chen was about to open his mouth to ask the old man, the old man next to Xiao Chen suddenly seemed like a corpse spoke up.

"Stinky boy, you are the deaf one! I just fell asleep just now, you are a dumb person, stop talking, it will scare people to death." The old man trembled his mouth slightly without even raising his eyelids. There was a sound that was not loud or small, although the sound was very low, but it was not to the point where it was completely inaudible.

"Hmph, old ghost is deaf, did you hear what they were asking you just now?" The old man on the other side glanced at the old man next to Xiao Chen with a look of disdain.

"Of course, do you really think I'm deaf? Although I'm asleep, I can still hear clearly. They are a group of noble lords. They came to find his daughter's lost pet." The old man looked confident. Full of answers.Xiao Chen was speechless looking at the old man.

Obviously the old man didn't hear anything, but his brain supplement skills are quite good. Out of respect, Xiao Chen didn't wear a hat to talk to the old man. A man, a woman and a little girl really looked like a family. The appearance of the three, plus the clothes Xiao Chen and the others wore.Although it is not aristocratic attire, it is much better than the two old men wearing coarse cloth.

Just when Xiao Chen was about to explain, the old man on the other side immediately retorted: "Old man, you are talking nonsense, they are clearly a team of mercenaries who came out to find wealth, and they went to find treasures in the ancient ruins .”

Depend on!It's been a long time.You are also making up your own mind!Xiao Chen looked at the old man on the other side with a speechless face.

"I think you're talking nonsense, brat. No one would take a child on an adventure!" "Old man, that's clearly a dwarf!" "Boy, I've seen dwarves that don't look like this at all! They have brown beards that are harder than iron, and this is clearly a little human girl!" "Old ghost..." "Brat!!!!"

Looking at the scene that was already a little out of control, Xiao Chen stood aside a little bit at a loss, looking at his posture, maybe the old man will steal his hands after a while.If this is really a fight.How can Xiao Chen stop this?

Crashed? !Just when Xiao Chen and Cui Lier were worried that things would get out of hand, the two old men suddenly stopped talking.The two turned into two stone statues and stared at the distance again. Xiao Chen swallowed his saliva and stretched out his fingers to test their breath. It was weak, very weak, even weaker than when Xiao Chen saw them before. , if Xiao Chen's senses were not particularly sensitive, in the eyes of ordinary people, these two people would have died.

Cui Lier swallowed and looked at the two who were suddenly motionless, pulling Xiao Chen's wrist and said: "Xiao Chen, they can't be, are they dead? Why are they not moving all of a sudden?"

"They're not dead, my father and grandfather are often like this, you don't have to worry." After Cui Lier's voice fell, a middle-aged voice laughed from behind Xiao Chen and the others.

Xiao Chen, Cui Lier and the others turned their heads to look behind them, only to see a man with bronze skin and a big belly like a beer belly standing behind them holding a pile of hay with a smile on his face.

Xiao Chen scratched his head and smiled, "Uncle, is this Huangyanshu Village?"

The middle-aged man smiled and nodded, "Of course, we are the only village within a hundred miles here, and there will be no second one. Have you seen the tree not far away? That is Huangyanshu Village The origin of the name, it looks like a tree from a distance, but when you look closer, you will find that it is actually a weathered Huangyan. The loess has been eroded by wind and sand all year round, and there are no trees for a long time. It doesn’t look like a A village, right? In fact, there used to be quite a lot of people here, but... as you can see, the land here will not yield any crops at all, so they have all gone."

Xiao Chen looked around at the loess environment and nodded with a wry smile.Indeed, this place is not suitable for growing crops at all. The crops in Peishui Continent generally need water very much. Obviously, it is impossible to meet this condition here.

Xiao Chen took out the task list from his arms and handed it to the middle-aged man with a smile: "Excuse me, is this task issued by you in the mercenary mission?"

The middle-aged man took the task sheet in a daze, looked at it, frowned, then shook his head with a helpless wry smile and said, "This is not what I posted on the mercenary mission, but I know who it is." Posted. Sorry to make you all go to waste."

Upon hearing this, Lai Lai immediately stepped forward and asked nervously, "Why? Is it true that the dwarf undead is happening in this village?"

The middle-aged man threw the hay into the livestock pen and clapped his hands with a smile, "Guys, if you don't dislike my rough tea here, you can come in and have a sit."

The middle-aged man led Xiao Chen into the house, then took out a few stools from the side for Xiao Chen and the others, and then brought a few bowls of tea to Xiao Chen and the others with a wry smile on his face, "Farmers, drink tea!" They all use bowls, and there are no cups, so please make do with it.”

Lai Lai took the tea and sat down, "Uncle, what did you mean when you said that we came here for nothing?"

The news of this dwarf is very important to Lai Lai. If it is false news, then they will have to start looking for clues all over again. It was quite a blow to Lai Lai.

The middle-aged man shook his head and smiled: "I'm not saying that the dwarf undead story is fake, it's just that the person who issued the task died not long ago. The person who issued the task is my mother. Because of old age, I said you came here in vain, because my mother has no money at all, even if you complete the mission, you will not get any commission. I have already applied to the mercenary mission office to cancel that mission Well, in fact, in my opinion, no one will take this task at all. The reward is only [-] dian. If you take a task with an unknown degree of danger, if you don’t have other plans, no one will take it. From the treasure of the dwarves?"

Xiao Chen frowned and exchanged a glance with Cui Lier, then asked the middle-aged man suspiciously: "The dwarf's treasure? What is it?"

The middle-aged man shook his head with a smile and said, "Stop pretending, is there anyone in this world who accepts a mission of unknown danger for Baidian's mission? I don't believe there will be such a person. In fact, the dwarf's The treasures and so on are all a big lie told by my mother before she died, there is no dwarf treasure at all."

Lai Lai put down the teacup and said puzzledly: "Your mother, why are you making such a lie?"

The middle-aged man snorted and said with a wry smile: "Because of my sister, this happened 30 years ago. At that time, my sister was only six years old, and I was already 12 years old. I went to work in the fields with my father and grandfather, and My mother took my younger sister to spin at home. My mother let my younger sister play in the yard alone. When we came back, we found that my younger sister was gone, and the unconscious mother was lying on the ground. After waking up, my mother said that my younger sister I was taken away by a dwarf undead, and then my mother became obsessed. This mission has been hanging in the mission office for 30 years, but it has never attracted much attention. For the sake of a mere hundred years, of course it is impossible Someone would do this kind of thing, and finally my mother came up with a way to spread false news about this dwarf treasure to attract those mercenaries."

Lailai pursed her lips in disappointment and said, "Did your mother also spread the rumor about the dwarf undead?"

The middle-aged man scratched his head and smiled wryly: "I don't know. On the day my sister disappeared, only my mother was present. I can't say if there were any dwarf ghosts. My father also said that he had seen dwarves." Undead, but looking at my father, how reliable this is is a question."

Xiao Chen snorted and frowned. Whether the news of the dwarf undead is true or not is completely a mystery now. Ask for proof, and the person concerned is dead.How to continue here, Xiao Chen also has no idea, maybe this clue will be disconnected here. (To be continued.)
