Chapter 675 The Strange Village (1)

"Wuque Village" is the name of the village.As soon as he entered the village entrance and saw the name of the village, Mo Xi felt a strange feeling in his heart.

Standing at the entrance of the village, looking up and looking inside, I only feel that the quiet village looks peaceful, but it seems to be weird.

"Girl, why do I feel that this village is a bit gloomy?" Xiu'er rubbed her arms, her original excitement was gone.

Mo Xi glanced at Xiu'er, said nothing, and walked in. The four of them walked in the village for a while, and saw a child playing by the side of the road. The white and tender child looked really ugly. people like it.

The moment she saw the child, Xiu'er's originally vigilant heart suddenly let go. She was happy and ran over. Mo Xi wanted to reach out to stop it, but it was too late.

Suddenly, Xiu'er screamed and fell to the ground, pointing at the child in front of her, she was shocked and speechless: "Girl, his face, his face..."

Mo Xi raised her head, only then did she notice that on the other half of the child's face, there was a large birthmark, which was as rough and ugly as toad skin, which made the originally lovely child a little scary.

The child seemed to be afraid because of the appearance of a stranger. He looked at He Mo and cherished them with a look of horror on his face, and his steps kept retreating, and he was about to retreat to the pond behind him.

With Mo Xi's eyes on one side, she walked quickly a few steps, arrived at the child's side, hugged the child in her arms, and fell heavily towards the ground.

"girl!"

Seeing this scene, the two servant girls were extremely worried!

Mo Xi didn't care, the loss of feeling in her legs played a very good role at this time, she couldn't feel the pain in her legs at all, she looked at the child in her arms and smiled slightly: "Son, are you alright? "

The child gave Mo Xi a timid look, crawled out of Mo Xi's embrace, and left.

Seeing the direction in which the child was leaving, Mo Xi smiled helplessly. Holding on to the stick, she tried to stand up, but found that her own ability was not enough.

Suddenly, someone stretched out a hand to help Mo Xi. Mo Xi thought it was Luyao or Xiu'er, so she didn't think much about it. elder.

Mo Xi's eyes flashed.

The old man smiled gently: "Don't worry, I have no malicious intentions. I am the grandma of the child just now, and his name is Mu Yuan. Don't blame him, he just has never seen anyone else, and because of the ugly birthmark on his face since he was a child, he is a little shy of strangers."

Hearing this, Mo Xi's heart relaxed. She glanced at the quiet village and said slowly, "This village—"

The old man smiled gently, and did not answer Mo Xi's question: "If you don't mind, then go to the old woman's house to have a drink!" As he spoke, the old man turned around and left, walking towards Mu Yuan just now, as if he was sure that Mo Xi would agree. direction.

Mo Xi and Li Xianyun looked at each other and followed behind the old man.

For some reason, Mo Xi had a feeling that as long as she followed this old man, she would definitely know something about this village, and the secret hidden behind this village would definitely surprise her!
Mo Xi didn't know, at that time, why did she still have time to care about other people's affairs.But later, she was glad that at that time, she followed the old man to her home and learned about the village!

The old man's home is very ordinary, like most peasants, there is a small yard with a few thatched houses, which is not bad, but in the old man's home, they don't see anything other than the old man and the pasture. people.

"Grandma, where are the rest of the family?" Xiu'er asked recklessly.

It was too late for Mo Xi to stop her.

The figure of the old man froze, and he continued to walk forward without saying anything.

Xiu'er also realized something belatedly, so she didn't say any more.

"You guys sit here for a while, I think you seem to have walked for a long time, you must be tired and hungry, I'll get you something to eat." Then, the old man walked out, looking at the old man's calm face , do not see anything.

In the inner room, a small head poked out, looking timidly at the scene in the main room, but did not approach.

Mo Xi looked at the child hiding behind the door, smiled kindly, and waved to the child.

However, this kind of behavior seemed to make the child feel scared, and the head that was poking out originally shrank back.

At this time, the old man also came in with his things, a few corn buns, and a pot of water, which are very simple things, but they are already the best things the old man can come up with.

"Don't dislike me, I'm an old woman, and I don't have any skills, so I can only entertain you with these things."

"Grandma, we are very grateful to have these things!" These days, all they ate were wild fruits in the woods, and they couldn't even see such buns.

Mo Xi is not a picky person. When she was locked up in the dilapidated house, she even ate licorice. It's not unacceptable to eat such buns. What's more, they are also hungry now, so it's good to eat some.

"I don't think the girl is a child of a poor family. How did she get this appearance?" The fine silk and satin, because they have been walking in the woods for a few days, have lost their original appearance, and the tattered appearance is probably not as good as it is. The patched clothes of ordinary people.

Mo Xi smiled helplessly: "To tell you the truth, grandma, we originally came to Yangzhou City to vote for relatives. Unexpectedly, the relatives failed to vote, but were robbed of their money by thieves. No, a few people walked away for a few days before we found out Such a village."

"Oh, that's the way it is. Don't worry, it's not far from Yangzhou City. If you want to go, leave tomorrow, and you'll be there in three days!"

After hearing the old man's words, Mo Xi's heart was relieved. She was sure that this was not Yangzhou City. Since it wasn't, no one would know them!

"Grandma, I didn't see anyone else walking around in the village during my walk. Why?" Mo Xi brought up the old story again.

After saying that, the old man's eyes flashed. This time, the old man did not avoid Mo Xi's question: "Oh! It's all a crime!"

Mo Xi's gaze sank, and Lu Yao and the others also pricked up their ears.

Sadness appeared on the old man's face: "Actually, there are people in every household in the village, but now, they seldom come out!"

"why?"

"It's a long story..."

With some vicissitudes of life sounded in the hut, the eyes of the old man seemed to go back to the past through the long river of time, and saw what happened in the past. Such things made the old man immersed in grief. Mu Yuan, who was hiding in the house, also came out, listening to the old man's story, clenched his fists tightly, his eyes seemed to be filled with anger...
