Ling Jin and the others looked surprised. They didn't expect that the village chief was not a man, but an old woman.
But thinking about it, it was also because the other party was unique in some aspects that he could become the village chief.
"I met Village Chief Wu."
Ling Jin spoke on behalf of everyone, cupping his hands and saying.
Village Chief Wu has been sitting on the chair without getting up, and her legs are covered with a blanket. Generally speaking, this is only the case for people with inconvenient legs and feet who cannot walk.
"I already know what you are going through, and I happen to have the right materials on hand. Within five to ten days, I should be able to build a small boat for you that can withstand wind and waves." ??
"During this period of time, you can be guests in our village. We are very hospitable, haha."
Village Chief Wu smiled and seemed very kind.
Everyone was naturally overjoyed and said a lot of thanks before being led out by Hao Er.
"Everyone, as the village chief said, you can live here peacefully and enjoy a quiet rural life for the next few days."
Hao Er smiled.
Everyone thanked them, and then returned to the guest room under Hao Er's gaze.
There was nothing they could do, Hao Er's bright eyes seemed to have an invisible aura, which made them feel embarrassed to leave the manor in front of him.
But Su Chen was different from the others. He walked directly out of the manor. It was broad daylight, could anyone stop him?
"Little brother, do you want to go out?"
Just when Su Chen walked to the door of the manor, a figure suddenly appeared, it was Hao Wu.
"Yes, it's rare to see such beautiful scenery when you go out for a walk."
Su Chen smiled lightly.
"Then let me accompany you."
Hao Wu said, and then
Regardless of whether Su Chen wanted to or not, he followed him forcefully.
In Hao Wu's words, they are the owners of this village, so they are naturally obliged to accompany their guests to visit.
He just followed Su Chen step by step. No matter where Su Chen went, Hao Wu immediately introduced him. You could say he was very enthusiastic, or you could say he was spying on Su Chen.
Su Chen originally wanted to visit every house in the village, but as soon as he showed signs of this, he would be immediately interrupted by Hao Wu, who would prevent Su Chen from going there on the grounds that people in the village liked quietness. He would even prevent Su Chen from going with him.
Pedestrians on the road chatted with each other.
This feeling of being hidden made Su Chen even more suspicious.
However, because he didn't plan to fall out with the other party yet, Su Chen didn't pursue it too much and returned to the manor after a brief visit.
Two days later, Hao Er came to him again, this time asking them to visit a twine ball in the village. It was said that it was the totem symbol of the entire village and was of great commemorative significance.
Twine ball?
This was the first time Su Chen heard that someone used this thing as a totem. The customs on the nameless island were indeed a bit strange.
Su Chen asked about Ling Jin and the others, and Hao Er said that they had already gone to visit first.
Su Chen thought for a while, then readily agreed, and went to a house deep in the village with Hao Er.
From a distance, this house looks like it is inhabited by people. However, when you get closer, you can see that there is no furniture and no partitioned rooms. There is only a large and spacious room, in which there is a wooden box made entirely of hemp ropes.
A giant ball of twine.
This ball of hemp rope is at least more than one foot in diameter. Anyone standing in front of it looks dwarfed.
It was indeed the first time for Su Chen to see such a big ball of hemp rope. He circled it twice and couldn't help but shake his head. It was really used for everything. Some people specially wound the hemp rope into such a big ball. I don't know why.
Who did it.
But soon, a solemn look appeared on Su Chen's face, because he could clearly feel a strange aura from this huge ball of twine.
At this time, Hao Er also walked in and said with a smile: "This twine ball has existed in the village for many, many years. It is said that the ancestors of the village fished it out of the black hole in the center of the earth. Its power can guarantee
The village has good weather, so we have been enshrining it for so many years."
"Well, then this twine ball is really good."
Su Chen smiled and then asked again, "By the way, where are my companions? Aren't they here to visit?"
"Oh, they should have gone back after visiting!"
Hao Er said, "This twine ball also has a very special function. Do you want to see it?"
"Let's take a look." Su Chen smiled lightly.
A secret smile suddenly appeared at the corner of Hao Er's mouth, and he said: "Then just stand here and don't move."
With that said, Hao Er's body exited the big room where the twine balls were placed.
The next moment, a hemp rope stretched out from the hemp rope ball, followed by many, many hemp ropes, like countless tentacles, sweeping towards Su Chen.
Su Chen was well prepared and turned to the side to avoid these hemp rope tentacles.
However, these hemp rope tentacles did not give up and followed Su Chen's figure in pursuit.
Su Chen flashed to the door and found that the door had been closed from the outside.
“I’ve only been visiting for a while, what are you doing in a hurry?
?”
Hao Er's slightly sharp laughter came from outside the door, "Don't be anxious, take your time and visit like your companions... Hahaha..."
"There really is a ghost in this place."
Su Chen was mentally prepared for a long time, but he still didn't expect such a strange situation. What on earth is this twine ball?
He took out Emperor Wu's Broken Sword and slashed it down, cutting off all the hemp rope tentacles that were reaching towards him.
This trick really worked. After several cuts, the hemp rope tentacles no longer reached out to him.
However, Su Chen knew that it would not end so easily. Ling Jin and the others had already been here. If they were tricked, it meant that this twine ball was more than enough to deal with a strong person like Ling Jin.
In the brief silence, the ball of twine seemed to have turned into a living creature in Su Chen's eyes, giving people an eerie feeling.
Suddenly, an object emerged from the twine ball.
This object was human-shaped, but it was made of hemp rope, just like a hemp rope puppet. As soon as it appeared, it immediately attacked Su Chen.
This hemp rope man was very fast, but Su Chen was not afraid and faced him with a punch.
Bang!
The two sides exchanged blows, and Su Chen took several steps back, while the hemp rope man just shook his body and attacked Su Chen again.
Su Chen also made a judgment in his heart. The combat power of this hemp rope man was probably at the second level of the Return to Void Realm. He raised his fist again and punched the hemp rope man hard.
This time, the hemp rope man staggered a few steps and almost fell.
Chapter completed!
