Chapter 110 Two identical villages?
Chapter 110 Two identical villages?
Zhou Fengchen was stunned. He couldn't understand why such a shy and simple girl would suddenly do this.
Several thoughts flashed through his mind in an instant: Aunt Hao and her husband felt they could not repay the life-saving grace, so they asked their daughter to offer herself to them?
Or perhaps Aunt Hao and her husband think they are good people and want to take him as their son-in-law, but are afraid that he might not be willing, so they want to make it a fait accompli first.
Or perhaps the girl was simply captivated by his handsome appearance, fell in love at first sight, and took the initiative to throw herself into his arms?
Thinking of this, he spat and said, "What is all this nonsense? It's too unrealistic."
While Zhou Fengchen was distracted, the little girl climbed onto the bed, hugged his waist tightly, and whispered, "Brother, love me..."
Her voice trembled, and you could tell she was very excited.
Zhou Fengchen jolted, quickly pushed her away, and lowered his voice, afraid that the neighbors, Aunt Hao and her husband, would hear, "Young lady, what you're doing is wrong..."
The little girl interrupted him, smiling, and said, "Just call me Ayu. I'm not a little girl anymore, I'm 17 years old."
"That's not what you said," Zhou Fengchen said softly. "How old you are has nothing to do with me, right? I'm leaving tomorrow."
"I don't care," Ayu squeezed in again. "Just feel sorry for me."
"Hey, no..." Zhou Fengchen was about to lecture her a bit more when the door creaked open and the light came on. Aunt Hao and her husband stood in the doorway with livid faces.
Zhou Fengchen's face turned bright red; he wished he could disappear into a crack in the wall. He was incredibly embarrassed. He quickly scrambled to his feet and explained, "Auntie, Uncle, please listen to me..."
"What else is there to say!" Sun Daqi snorted, pointing at his daughter.
Zhou Fengchen then noticed that Ayu was only wearing a red bellyband, curled up in a ball, not daring to look at her parents, her face red to her neck, and tears streaming down her face.
This is getting messed up...
Zhou Fengchen scratched his head. "It's a misunderstanding, a real misunderstanding."
"Stop talking!" Aunt Hao stormed over, grabbed her daughter, and started slapping her face repeatedly.
"I'll teach you to be so ignorant, you brat! I'll teach you to act recklessly, you stinky brat..."
Ayu didn't say anything, she just covered her face and cried.
Zhou Fengchen felt as if those slaps were landing on his own face. He was furious and blurted out in his Shaanxi dialect, "What's going on? Nothing happened, what are you doing?"
Sun Dayi pulled his wife away and dragged his daughter out the door. Then he turned to Zhou Fengchen and said, "Brother Zhou, I am grateful to you for saving my wife, but let's keep things separate. You can't just ruin my daughter like this for no reason."
Aunt Hao also said angrily, "That's right, Ayu is only seventeen years old, a pure and innocent young girl. After this happened, how is she supposed to face the world?"
"Damn it!" Zhou Fengchen said impatiently, "Then what do you guys suggest we do?"
Sun Da and Aunt Hao exchanged a glance and said, "Now that things have come to this, are you taking Ayu away, or will you settle things here in the village?"
"Huh?" Zhou Fengchen was stunned. There was such a... way of saying it?
"That's settled then, you go and rest!" Mr. and Mrs. Sun turned off the light and slammed the door shut.
Zhou Fengchen stared blankly in the direction of the door. He'd just picked up a wife? And a minor, young girl at that?
Why does this feel so fake? He suddenly wondered if this was something that Mr. and Mrs. Sun had deliberately planned. But then he thought again that the couple weren't that kind of people.
"Never mind!" He pulled the covers over himself and decided to leave quietly early the next morning before the family got up.
Silent all night.
The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Zhou Fengchen got up, carefully opened the bedroom door, and finding no one outside, tiptoed to the front door, opened it, and ran away.
He ran all the way to the overgrown weeds south of the village. Looking around, he was at a loss. If there was a nunnery fifty miles west of the city, it was very likely to be on the nearby hills. But he was searching like a headless fly. Where should he look? And how could he let Doromo and the others find him?
Last night I was so busy tricking Doromo and the others that I forgot to ask Mr. and Mrs. Sun. It seems I should ask a villager first before making any plans.
He crouched in the grass, keeping a close eye on the village, and waited for two hours.
As dawn broke, an old woman came swaying along with an umbrella; it was Granny Li.
Zhou Fengchen was overjoyed. As Granny Li approached, he darted forward and said, "Hello, Granny!"
Granny Li was startled. When she saw Zhou Fengchen clearly, she couldn't connect him with the "old immortal" from last night. She frowned and said, "Young man, what are you doing? It's quite frightening that you suddenly appeared."
Zhou Fengchen smiled and said, "I came to the mountain to offer incense and fulfill my vow. I heard there's a Shuiyue Nunnery nearby. Do you know where it is?"
Granny Li's expression suddenly changed, and she said, "What Water Moon Nunnery? That's nonsense!"
He left in a hurry after saying that.
Zhou Fengchen sensed something was wrong. Why was the old lady reacting like this? He quickly followed and asked, "Why not? I came because I heard about it. Think again, have you heard anyone mention it or seen it? Just tell me the general direction."
Granny Li shook her head: "No, no!"
Seeing that he couldn't get any answers, Zhou Fengchen turned around and asked again, "Then... where did the three young masters from the village go?"
The two had already walked for some time, surrounded by weeds, and had no idea where they were.
Granny Li suddenly looked at Zhou Fengchen with a sly smile, "Do you really want to know where they are?"
"Yes, I do." Zhou Fengchen was taken aback, thinking to himself, "Why is that a strange question?"
Granny Li pointed ahead, "Isn't that it?"
Zhou Fengchen looked in the direction she was pointing, and sure enough! There was a steep slope ahead, where Doromo and the other two were tidying up their magical artifacts. On the ground lay a monster with two horns, a flat nose, and a hairy appearance. It was completely dead, and blood was splattered everywhere.
"No way... you've been playing all night?"
Zhou Fengchen muttered something to himself, then looked behind Doromo and the others and was taken aback!
There's another village ahead, which looks similar to Sun Da's village.
No! It's not just similar, it's exactly the same, even the location of the large stone pier at the village entrance hasn't changed!
"What... what's going on? Two villages..." Zhou Fengchen subconsciously turned his head and asked Granny Li in a low voice.
Turning his head, he saw the weeds swaying in the wind, but there was no sign of Granny Li anywhere.
Zhou Fengchen's heart skipped a beat, feeling as if something was wrong. Why was the old lady running away?
He couldn't care less about Doromo and the other two anymore. He turned around and headed back to the village to see what was going on.
After walking for a short while, they looked ahead and couldn't help but gasp. Doromo and his men were dissecting a monster's corpse, seemingly very curious about it. Behind them was Sun Da's mountain village!
This……
No! No!
Zhou Fengchen turned around and ran back again, only to find Doromo and his two companions, along with the mountain village, ahead of him.
Is this a ghost wall? A ghost wall in broad daylight?
He opened his third eye and looked around, but the third eye technique, which had always worked, seemed to malfunction at this moment, and he found nothing unusual.
There was nothing strange about the village, and Doromo and his companions were perfectly normal.
Zhou Fengchen looked to both sides; on one side was a cliff, and on the other side was a small hill.
He gritted his teeth and quietly climbed up the mountain, intending to take a detour to the other side and see what was going on.
After climbing to the top of the hill, there was another grassy path on the opposite side. At the end of the grass was a cliff. He went down the hill and walked along the grassy path. After a while, he stopped and couldn't help but exclaim "Damn!"
Ahead lies the village and Doromo and his group!
What the hell is going on?
