There were brisk footsteps outside the door, and several men walked in carrying large bamboo baskets covered with a layer of white cloth.
The fat man instinctively felt disgusted when he saw the white cloth. There were large yellow stains on the white cloth. He strongly suspected that this was the cloth that had covered the fake grandpa's body.
Lifting the white cloth, there were bowls of white rice inside, still steaming from the top. It had obviously just been taken out of the pot, and the aroma of the rice was like magic, making everyone unable to take their eyes away.
The senior old woman took out a bowl and held it directly to Li Bai, with expectation written on her face, "Miss Li, you are hungry, you eat first."
The villagers also chimed in and stared at Li Bai. It seemed that the scene was almost coming to an end.
Jiang Cheng smiled and took out a bowl of white rice from the bamboo basket, and took out a pair of chopsticks. He chuckled and said, "It's a pity. Miss Li had a stomachache last night. I'm afraid she won't be able to bear it now. It's a pity that such a good thing is good." White rice."
Li Bai also pretended to have a regretful expression when he heard this, and put the rice on the table, "I'm sorry, thank you for everyone's kindness, but my stomach feels uncomfortable and I can't eat."
"Since it's not convenient for Miss Li to eat now, let's eat first. Why, you foreigners won't give you face, right?" A man with scars on his face said in a bad tone, "This is the best food in our village. , Don’t be ignorant of praise.”
Jiang Cheng's situation was now awkward, because now he was the only one with a bowl of white rice in his hand, and everyone was staring at him.
Jiang Cheng calmly turned around and handed the rice bowl to Shao Tong with a smile, "Brother Shao, I'm allergic to rice. You can take care of it."
Naturally, Jiang Cheng knew that he was trying to ward off disaster, and when he tried to repeat his old trick and push the white rice out again, he was shocked to realize that the others were already 2 meters away from him.
Even Shao Tong's shameless face was a bit unbearable at this moment. These people really have no lower limit at all.
Fortunately, as the last bowl of rice was served, the villagers seemed to have lost interest in him. They all sat down and used chopsticks to pick up the rice, each one of them looking like a starving man.
The weirdest thing is that they only eat, and there isn't even a salted fish on the table.
At Jiang Cheng's signal, everyone sat down one after another. Although everyone had a bowl of rice in front of them, no one had any intention of using their chopsticks.
Jiang Cheng excused himself to go back to the room to get something and walked away with his back to everyone. However, after taking a few steps, his phone fell to the ground. He bent down and took this opportunity to look at the villagers through his crotch.
It has been a long-standing saying that you can see ghosts through your crotch when you bend over, but what surprised Jiang Cheng was that except for the strange food and appearance of each of these villagers, everything else was normal.
He looked at Xiuling in particular, and the result was the same.
"They are all human beings." Jiang Cheng stood up in confusion, "How is that possible?"
After he returned to the room, he took a few photos with his mobile phone while no one was paying attention, but there was no problem with the photos displayed.
"Is it possible that the method is fine, but the problem is the people?"
Looking at Li Bai who was being stared at by the villagers, Jiang Cheng thought for a moment and felt that it was very possible. Maybe he couldn't see it, but Li Bai could.
Before going out, Jiang Cheng sent a message to Li Bai and asked her to find a chance to confirm. This was very important.
After Jiang Cheng returned, he sat down next to Li Bai and naturally cut into the conversation between the villagers and Li Bai to help Li Bai share the pressure, while Li Bai excused himself to go back to the room to get some clothes.
In the same position, when Li Bai bent down again, everything was different. The scene in front of him made Li Bai's whole body feel cold.
What kind of scene is this? Every villager sitting at the dinner table has no head!
No, no, it's not that they don't have heads, but they don't have real heads. What's on their bloody necks is a ball of straw. To be precise, they use straw to make a spherical head, with crooked inlays on it. With perfect facial features, the scene couldn’t be more bizarre!
"Daotou Village!"
Such words flashed through Li Bai's mind like a thunderbolt, and she finally understood the origin of the village's name.
Sure enough, it is Daotou Village!
But after all, Li Bai was a person who had seen big scenes, and his mental quality was far superior to others. He adjusted his mood in a few breaths, returned to the room, took out his clothes, and sat back at the dinner table.
Of course, she also sent everyone what she saw on her mobile phone.
For some reason, Jiang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief after confirming the identities of these village ghosts.
Li Bai was still chatting and laughing, politely answering every question raised by the old woman, but Jiang Cheng noticed that her smile was somewhat stiff at the moment.
This time Jiang Cheng interrupted several times, and the villagers ignored him. They looked at Li Bai with more and more wild eyes.
The most important thing now is to find out what happened in this village and why it happened.
Only by finding the source can we prescribe the right medicine.
"Grandma, why is our village called a martial arts village?" Li Bai asked sweetly, holding the old woman's hand.
The old woman was stunned for a moment, and then she was surprised by the sudden voice. She actually shed tears and immediately explained: "My dear granddaughter, you don't know something. Don't think our village is just a small fishing village. Let me tell you, our village He has a great background, there was once a martial arts champion in the village!"
"Wu Zhuangyuan?" Li Bai pretended to be curious, and then said with a smile: "That should be called Zhuangyuan Village."
Hearing this, the old woman sighed, and her eyes became dark, "That's true of you, but it's a pity that our Dafeng Dynasty has declined in martial arts, and those civil servants don't like our martial champion, so they won't let him use it. The name Zhuangyuan Village, hey, but don’t mention it, our Wu Zhuangyuan is worthy of his reputation. He has made great military exploits for our Dafeng Dynasty. He is decisive in killing and invincible. He is called the God of War. However, he was even more favored by the Holy Emperor and was given the title of a mighty general who suppressed the army. He was really proud of his ancestors!"
The old woman's face was full of pride when she talked about this, and the other villagers also praised the military god. However, Jiang Cheng and others felt shocked in their hearts. He did not expect, and no one expected, that this little-known little The fishing village is actually the hometown of General Guo.
In this way, there is an explanation for Zhennan Hou sending elite troops to encircle and suppress the village.
He wants to eliminate the roots.
"By the way, our village also built a shrine to this great general!" The old woman was very excited when talking about this. "The shrine is very grand. It's a pity that you, my dear granddaughter, are a foreigner. According to the rules, you can't go in to see it. ."
Having said this, the old woman paused for a few seconds, then smiled again, staring at Li Bai with her cloudy eyes, "Hey, it doesn't matter, I'll have a chance soon."
