Chapter 178

Qin Zi'ang shook his head, sat down and took out a teacup and teapot to make tea, while saying to Zhang Luochen: "Everything is normal. Those villagers should do whatever they should do. They talk and chat like ordinary people, without any weirdness."

Although Xue Hongling didn't know how they were exploring, she felt something was wrong when she heard what Qin Zi'ang said, and whispered: "Why do I think it's not weird, it's the biggest weirdness."

"Well, how can I explain this?"

"I can't say it well, that's it, I always feel that they look at us strangely. It's the first time I've ever had this feeling since I stayed in a black store."

Zhang Luochen nodded and said to them: "Since Hongling thinks it is strange, maybe there is something really wrong. Let's let it go and stay for a night before talking about it. If these people really hide something, there will definitely be flaws."

Of course, the few people listened to Zhang Luochen, but only Xue Hongling got Zhang Luochen's approval. Although the reason was a bit nonsensical, she was still very happy. She took advantage of the interest and asked Qin Zi'ang why he could find out the whereabouts of the villagers when he was sleeping in the house.

Since Zhang Luochen wanted Xue Hongling to follow, he naturally would not hide it. He only said one sentence at the beginning, and Qin Zi'ang took over the topic. Hu Tian and Hu were boasting about it. Seeing Xue Hongling's face full of envy, he couldn't help but feel proud.

In the deep mountains, it was getting dark, and in a blink of an eye, the light had dimmed. The fireworks were wafting in the village, and the aroma of various meals came everywhere. Although there were no delicacies in this mountain village, sometimes the home-cooked fragrance was even more mouth-watering.

Qin Zi'ang looked at the roast chicken in his hand and said boredly: "Didn't you say that you will bring us supper? You haven't come yet after so long."

When Cao Cao came, he heard footsteps coming outside. Li was carrying a food box with an old woman. Li was eagerly greeting: "Customers must be hungry, are you? My wife just made soup, everyone can try it."

Qin Zi'ang hurriedly threw away the chicken legs to welcome him? He smelled the aroma of the food through the food box? He couldn't help but say happily: "Li Zheng's ears are so wise. I just said I was a little greedy. But this food has been delivered."

Just entered the house? But I saw buns, roast chicken and small dots on the table, and the scene was quite embarrassing.

"Uh? We can't find a good dish in our mountains and wild places? It's not as expensive as everyone's food? But it's still very hot and delicious. If the guests don't dislike it, just try it." There was a bowl of wild vegetables and egg flower soup from it? A few steamed buns with mixed grains? Amazingly, there was a chicken stew.

"Oh, how can this be done?" Yang Baichuen was also a farmer. He knew that killing a chicken was a big deal for this poor man, which shows that it was a waste of time to entertain a few people here.

"Mr. Li Zheng doesn't know, we are walking every day?                                                                                                                       

They brought enough food? It was just a meal for them? But the people in this mountain village may have never tasted the small spots of Babaozhai in Lizhou Prefecture in their lives? So they did not hide their own personalities and put them in. However, they were embarrassed to give in, and finally Qin Zi'ang pushed and sent them out.

"How about it? Come and try it delicious." Qin Zi'ang went back to the house and reached out to get the chopsticks to eat, but saw Yang Baichuan shook his head silently at him.

Qin Zi'ang's heart skipped a beat and his movements slowed down. He listened carefully. The steps of his wife and his wife had already gone away. Then he lowered his voice and asked, "What's wrong? But it's not right?"

Before Yang Baichuan could answer, she suddenly heard anxious footsteps outside the house. A man rushed in anxiously and shouted, "I can't eat, I can't eat."

Several people were stunned. The one who rushed in was a boy who looked only twelve or thirteen years old, and was covered in tattered and dirty. He rushed in with anxiety like a little monkey. Seeing that the dishes on the table had not moved, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Yang Baichuan quickly grabbed the boy with a quick hand and asked, "Where did you come from? Why do you go around and say you can't eat it? Is there something strange in this meal?"

The young man was grabbed by Yang Baitun and immediately struggled hard, but he couldn't help but say angrily, "I'm here to save you, let me down!"

Zhang Luochen nodded at Yang Baitun. Yang Baitun then put the boy down. The boy tidied up his clothes angrily, but he didn't run away and sat down.

"Boy, who are you? Tell me, what's going on here?" Zhang Luochen asked, vaguely feeling that this young man might be a breakthrough in his heart.

The young man looked at the door first and found that it did not attract the attention of others. Then he lowered his voice and said to the few people: "Tell you the truth. My name is Guo Tie. It is the original owner of this room. My father and I lived here before."

Zhang Luochen looked at the boy's torn clothes and dirty face, "Then why did you end up like this?"

The young man said with an angry look on his face and said gritting his teeth: "Do you guys don't know that this mountain is called Modou Mountain. There have always been tiger demons. The villagers in this village look simple and kind, but in fact they all have ulterior motives and specially caught passers-by and sent them to feed the tiger demon."

"Pity my father and I. When I came here a few months ago, I was placed in this house. I thought I would live there from now, but I didn't expect that I would stay for only a few months. They actually found an opportunity to make my father and son faint, and tied my father and sent it to the tiger demon to feed him. When I found out, my father had already been buried in the tiger's mouth. The villagers lied to me that my father didn't want me anymore. I was afraid that they would harm me, so I pretended to believe it. Later, I found an opportunity to escape to the cave behind the village to hide, waiting for the opportunity to avenge my father."

"Oh." Zhang Luochen finally felt relieved and asked the young man: "As for this reason, there are indeed tiger demons in this mountain."

"Yes, a few guests will follow me to leave here, otherwise they will come to check later and you will not be able to run away." The young man said anxiously.

Zhang Luochen waved his hand, "No, no hurry, you don't have to run away, just sit here. I will seek justice for you later."

The young man obviously didn't believe it, but seeing that Zhang Luochen and his group were not dressed like ordinary people and had extraordinary demeanor, they did not leave. They were a little restless in the room and kept looking out.

From time to time, he looked at the food on the table again, seeing that his face was hungry and his face was dirty, and obviously he had suffered a lot.

Zhang Luochen took a secret roast chicken from his bag for him to eat, "I brought this myself, not food given by the villagers."
