Several aunties were very surprised when they saw the sudden appearance of the girl. Their village was located in a remote area. Except for some hunters who occasionally came here to hunt in the mountains, few outsiders came here.
I didn't expect to see a girl with a strange face today who is more beautiful than the fairy in the painting.
An old lady said bluntly: "Hey! This girl is so handsome. Why did she come to our Haw Par Village alone?"
"My father and I went hunting in the mountains and accidentally got separated, and we ended up here unknowingly."
Zhuzhu met two hunters hunting on the outskirts of the dense forest at the foot of the mountain, so she knew that hunters should often come here to hunt, so she casually made up a lie using this as an excuse.
"What a sin, you brought such a beautiful girl into the mountains. Aren't you afraid of something happening?"
The ladies in the group had no doubts about Zhuzhu's words, and they all felt sorry for her.
"By the way, I'm just asking for your advice," one of the ladies patted her thigh, "You just said you wanted to beg for a bowl of water, right?"
Zhuzhu nodded: "Sorry, ma'am, I'm really thirsty after walking for a long time."
"Then you wait, my house is closest to here, I will pour it for you."
The aunt dropped her work and ran towards the village in a hurry.
Seeing this scene, Zhu Zhu's eyes softened as he had practiced to the point of killing people without blinking an eye.
I have to say, the people in this village are really nice.
Other ladies asked Zhuzhu to sit down and rest.
"Girl, it's almost getting dark. It's not safe for you to be here alone. Why don't you go to my house and rest for the night?"
The aunt who first praised Zhuzhu for her good looks said enthusiastically that this girl was so good-looking that she could eat two more bowls of rice just by looking at her.
Zhuzhu shook her head: "My father is still in the mountains, I have to find him."
"What?" The aunt grabbed Zhuzhu, "It's too dangerous to go into the mountains so late. Maybe your father can't find you and have already come out. Girl, listen to the aunt, it's not safe to go into the mountains at night. Otherwise, wait until dawn tomorrow. Looking for it."
"Is it because there is a green-eyed tiger in the mountains?"
Zhuzhu thought the danger these ladies were talking about was the blue-eyed yellow-striped tiger and the group of first-order black panthers.
"Is there a tiger in the mountains?"
The aunt was stunned for a moment, but she quickly came back to her senses and said, "The danger I'm talking about is not the tiger."
"what is that?"
"Yes..." The expressions of the ladies became frightened, "It's that kind of dirty thing."
"Ghost?"
"Shh-don't mention those two words."
An aunt was scared and worried, "Girl, just listen to my advice and don't go into the mountains at night."
Zhuzhu was thoughtful. No wonder her spiritual sense detected that there were very few young people in this village. They must have moved away because they were afraid of the dirty things in their mouths. Only some older people were left who were unwilling to leave their homes.
Could it be that there are evil cultivators here causing trouble, or is it for other reasons?
Maybe the thin spiritual energy here has something to do with the dirty things in the mouths of these ladies.
"Aunts, have you seen that dirty thing?"
"No..." The ladies shook their heads repeatedly, and became even more panicked when talking about this. "That thing only wanders around the mountains and at the foot of the mountains at night, and almost all the people who have seen it are dead."
"No, no, you forgot about the Chen family's Erniu. He also saw it and was lucky enough to save a small life."
While he was talking, the lady who went home to pour water ran over with a teapot in her arms:
"Girl, come on, come on, drink some water."
"Thank you, aunt."
Zhuzhu took the coarse porcelain bowl handed over by the aunt and drank from it before continuing to ask: "Where is Erniu's family?"
"It's right next to a crooked willow tree at the east end of the village. Girl, why do you ask?"
"I want to know what that dirty thing looks like. I'm afraid my dad is in danger."
It was true that she was homesick and eager to return home, but since she was destined to come here and met these simple and kind-hearted villagers, Zhuzhu thought of helping them deal with that harmful thing.
She declined the invitations from those ladies to stay overnight and walked to Chen Erniu's house.
The ladies looked at Zhuzhu's retreating figure and could only sigh helplessly: "This girl's ideas are too good, we can't persuade her."
"Don't let anything happen to such a handsome girl."
Zhuzhu actually heard the voices of regret and sympathy from the aunts clearly. She did not explain to the aunts that she had the ability to protect herself.
I'm afraid they won't believe it even if I explain it.
What she is more curious about now is what the dirty things in those aunties' mouths look like.
Chen Erniu is a boy of 17 or 18 years old and one of the few young people in the village.
At this moment, he was chopping firewood in the yard. When he heard a knock on the door from outside the yard, he put down the ax in his hand strangely.
Since he rescued his life from the mountains, although the villagers did not dislike him for coming into contact with dirty things, they still involuntarily cut off contact with their family.
There is no way, everyone is afraid of becoming like this, and even more afraid of losing their lives.
Chen Erniu understands, so he rarely goes out except when necessary.
"Er Niu, cough cough cough...why did I hear someone knocking on the courtyard door?"
A feeble old voice came from the room, and Erniu hurriedly replied: "Mom, let me go and take a look."
"It's better...I...I'll open the door. Come in quickly and don't scare others."
A skinny woman walked out of the room. She should have been in her thirties, but her face looked worn and haggard. She looked like an old woman in her fifties or sixties.
Erniu touched the bumps on the left half of his face, which were like many reddish-brown earthworms lying on the scars on his face, lowered his head and walked into the house with low self-esteem.
Erniu Niang tremblingly stepped forward and opened the courtyard door. When she saw Zhuzhu at the door, she couldn't help but be stunned, and then asked in a puzzled tone: "Girl, who are you looking for?"
In fact, Zhuzhu's spiritual consciousness has already seen Chen Erniu in the yard, and even seen the scars on his face. From this, he determined that the scars on his face were caused by a kind of magic poison, and he was even more certain that there was an evil cultivator here. There was a hidden practice of sorcery nearby, but she still wanted to ask Chen Erniu to find out.
"Is this Erniu's house?"
"Yes... yes, are you looking for my Erniu?" Erniu's wife nodded hurriedly and asked Zhuzhu casually and curiously.
"Yeah, I have some things I want to ask him. I wonder if he is free?"
Zhuzhu's tone was as polite as possible, so as not to scare this woman who was actually terminally ill.
Er Niu Niu was flattered and said: "Why don't you ask for advice? Come in quickly and I will call you Er Niu."
Just as Er Niu Niu was about to turn around and call Er Niu, she suddenly remembered the scar on Er Niu's face. She was afraid of scaring the guests, so she turned back with a confused look on her face: "My Er Niu's face was injured, which is a bit scary. Don't... don't be afraid. , he is not a bad person. "
Zhuzhu shook her head: "Auntie may not know that I am a doctor and have seen all kinds of people. Maybe I can help him treat the injuries on his face."
Of course, she can also cure this woman's illness.
But there was no rush in this matter. She dealt with the evil cultivator who was causing trouble first, and then it was not too late to heal the mother and son.
"real?"
Er Niu Niu was so surprised that she turned around and called Er Niu: "Er Niu, come out quickly. There is a guest here."
Erniu had actually heard the conversation between his mother and Zhuzhu in the house, and even saw Zhuzhu through the broken window at home.
For a young man as big as Er Niu, it was impossible not to be amazed when seeing such a beautiful woman.
But Erniu was self-aware, not to mention that his appearance was ruined by the dirt in the mountains, and he was even more different from the woman.
Although he had no such thoughts about the woman, Erniu still didn't want to go out.
He was not afraid of the eyes of the villagers, but he was afraid that such a beautiful woman would be frightened by him, and he was afraid of seeing ridicule or sympathy in her eyes.
Seeing that Er Niu didn't want to come out, Er Niu's mother got angry and was about to stand up to pull him out. Zhu Zhu stepped forward to stop her: "Auntie, don't be angry. Er Niu is probably afraid of scaring me. It's okay."
She understood Er Niu's thoughts. In her previous life, she had skin allergies for a period of time and many small red spots appeared on her face. In order to prevent the seniors she had a slight crush on from seeing her face, she not only wore a mask and hat to school every day on hot days, but also She even cut her bangs straight, which was the first time in eighteen years of her previous life that she cared about her appearance.
Looking back now, it's a bit funny.
