But Chen Mo underestimated the enthusiasm of the villagers.
Because they casually saved the old village chief, the group of people received warm hospitality from the villagers of Shimen Town.
They took Chen Mo to their current residence.
There were not many survivors, only number 20, most of whom were old, weak, women and children, and only a few middle-aged men.
After some inquiries, Chen Mo also learned about the current situation in Shimen Town.
Shimen Town was shrouded in heavy fog at the beginning of the apocalypse. In addition, there are generally elderly people here, so even if they transform into zombies, they are not very effective at fighting.
As time goes by, these zombies have become weaker day by day, just like the first ones seen, with the exception of special species.
Moreover, they learned from their mouths that the village chief's son had become a special species and never took the initiative to harm the residents of the town except today.
Only active at night to hunt those deformed alien species.
Even during the day on the streets of Shimen Town, the bodies of wild beasts in the mountains and forests would always appear inexplicably.
This is also the most important reason why these people can survive safely.
…
Inside the house, the lights are brightly lit.
The enthusiasm of the folks in Shimen Town was so overwhelming that they even made arrangements for Qiongqi outside, who was holding a big piece of meat and chewing on it outside his house.
"The little girl is really well-born. Come on, come on, eat more."
"Are you hungry after coming all the way? Our ancestors in Shimen Town experienced famine, and we all have the habit of hoarding food. There is still a lot of rice in the granary."
An aunt came up with a bowl of hot rice and some meat dishes made of unknown meat.
Seeing An Mingyue's hesitation, the aunt said with a smile: "Don't worry, eat it. These meats are all brought by Xiao Heng. They are all exotic meats from the mountains. It's okay to eat them."
Luo Yan didn't notice anyone else and started gobbling up the food. It had been a long time since he had eaten such rich food.
While eating, tears fell down and he said.
"It's delicious...wuwuwu...it's so delicious, Aunt Liu, shit, I haven't had hot food for a long time. You here are 10,000 times more comfortable than I am in the safe zone!"
"Even if you let me die now, I will have no regrets."
"Haha! Brat, you are suffering out there!" A man went up to him and slapped him on the head.
"I heard you say that the safe zone is pretty good, isn't it? You are still an awesome superpower, but why can't you even get enough to eat there?"
The aunt rolled her eyes at him and said angrily: "It's not as easy as you think for a baby outside, and the competition in the safe zone is fierce."
The aunt looked at An Mingyue.
"Little girl, why don't you move your chopsticks? Do you think you dislike the food I cook?"
An Mingyue was in a daze for a moment.
Looking at the sumptuous meal on the table, she seemed to have returned to the pre-apocalypse.
"No, aunt, thank you." An Mingyue said with a smile.
Chen Mo was not around, enjoying the delicacies.
No matter how important things are, they are not as important as filling your stomach.
The village chief was smoking a cigarette and said with squinted eyes: "Xiao Luo, from what you just said, it's really a mess outside."
"This is because God can't stand the disaster... In my opinion, you and your two friends should stay here. Our Shimen Town is protected by Emperor Fengdu. It's not an exaggeration to say it is a paradise..."
Chen Mo, who was eating, suddenly stopped when he heard the words "Fengdu Emperor".
An Mingyue also pricked up her ears.
While Chen Mo was eating, he said carelessly: "Old village chief, what did you mean by the protection of Emperor Fengdu just now?"
Before the old village chief could speak, a villager on the side said with a smile.
"Ours is a famous ghost city. Legend has it that the gate to Fengdu is right here. Every year we hold a ceremony to worship Emperor Fengdu.
Didn't Xiao Luo say that now that the ancient gods have awakened in the last days, we old guys suspect that the reason why we have not been greatly affected is because Master Fengdu has appeared. "
Speaking of this, he looked a little proud.
From Luo Ren's words before, they all heard that the outside world is currently in dire straits. Ordinary people don't have enough to eat. How can they not be as comfortable as they are, and they don't have to worry about food and drink.
Even the older generation couldn't believe these things. When the Emperor Fengdu was mentioned, the villagers in Shimen Town also became excited.
"Hey! That heavy fog must have been caused by Emperor Fengdu to protect us!"
"Wouldn't it be the Ghost Festival in a few months? I have to find time to go to the mountain to worship."
A group of people became more and more enthusiastic as they talked.
"Ahem!" At this time, the old village chief on the side stopped coughing twice and said with a somewhat unhappy expression.
"Okay, Xiao Chen and the others are all young people, why are they talking so much about superstition?"
Chen Mo listened very carefully.
It seems that it is not an accident that Luo Yan was selected for the Ghost King Sword Key, because he was originally from Shimen Town.
And the villagers here have still survived to this day, so maybe this is really possible.
"Village Chief, don't tell me. I didn't believe it before, but I was about to die once and somehow managed to survive. Isn't it really because of the blessing of Emperor Fengdu?" Luo Yan ate his rice in big mouthfuls, vaguely. Qing said.
"By the way, Brother Chen, I remember that you seemed to be looking for the Fengdu Ghost City and the stone lions..."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of the villagers who were still chatting and laughing all changed, and they all shut up and fell silent.
The old man was also stunned and looked at Chen Mo with wide eyes.
"Young man, the purpose of your coming here is..."
Chen Mo didn't hide it, put down his chopsticks and said with a smile.
"Well, Luo Yan is right, I do want to come here to find the Fengdu."
"Is there any stone statue on your mountain that looks like a lion?"
The old man touched his head in embarrassment and said.
"Stone lion? I've never heard of this..."
An Mingyue, who was eating, raised her head and glanced at him.
"Where did you know this?" the old man asked.
Chen Mo did not explain, shook his head and said: "I heard it by chance. If you don't know, forget it."
The old man breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "We have never seen those stone statues, but we villagers are very familiar with the nearby hills. Young man, I think it's getting late. I'll go and arrange a place for you first. "
After saying that, he stood up with a stooped body and glanced at the surrounding villagers.
Everyone understood what the old village chief meant and left one after another, saying with a smile before leaving.
"We're not far away. If you need anything, remember to call us."
"go to bed early."
An Mingyue responded with a bright smile: "Okay, thank you, uncle and aunt!"
After a group of Shimen Town villagers left, the lively atmosphere in the house suddenly became quiet.
There was only the sound of Luo Yan devouring his food.
Chen Mo looked at An Mingyue and said calmly.
"What did you hear?"
"What?" An Mingyue pretended to be confused.
"Stop pretending, you just used your superpower." Chen Mo said.
An Mingyue stuck out her tongue, stood up, closed the door, returned to her seat, and said helplessly.
"I can't hide this from you..."
"Yes, these villagers are very nice. They are sincerely grateful for hosting us. I haven't heard any bad intentions..."
"Tell me the key points," Chen Mo said.
An Mingyue paused and stared at Chen Mo with her beautiful eyes.
Said slowly.
"But he just lied."
"He has seen the stone statue, and the location of the stone statue... I already know."
