"You stay here and don't make a sound..."

The old man was so nervous that his face was covered with sweat, and an ugly smile appeared on his old face that was full of traces of weather and frost.

The old man slowly let go of his grandson's mouth and slowly approached the wall, trying to observe the situation outside through the gaps in the wall.

The old man pressed his face against the wall, looking nervous and breathing heavily, and mustered up the courage to look outside.

"--Eh!?"

I happened to meet Xia Nan who was also leaning against the wall, looking inside with wide eyes.

The two faces were separated by a wall and they stared at each other for a few seconds before the old man suddenly let out a strange scream! The howl that sounded like a ghost startled Xia Nan, but then she realized what was going on.

He is an ordinary person, and he seems to be a villager in this village, otherwise he would not be hiding here.

Thinking of this, Xia Nan took back the exposed bone spurs. Just now, he almost killed someone through the wall. But thanks to him, he was careful and didn't attack directly with too much murderous intent. Otherwise, he would not get the next information.

Can't get it.

"Sanlang, run!!"

It is said that the old man inside the wall pushed his grandson forward with tears in his eyes, but he rushed towards the wall in an attempt to block the dark wall with his body to prevent the terrible enemies outside from rushing in and killing his grandson.

"grandfather!"

The grandson made a cry.

"——Go! Leave me alone!"

Instead, the old man scolded and urged.

Here the grandfather and grandson gave a touching and affectionate performance, but over there Xia Nan smashed the wall with her body and stepped into the secret passage inside the wall with a "Boom!" Don't blame him for being rude, it's really this person's fault

The sound was so sharp and harsh that if Xia Nan hadn't suppressed his murderous intention and just punched out, the people inside the wall would have been killed on the spot.

"Eh? It's an old man and a child?"

Xia Nan easily smashed the solid wall with her body. At the same time, she glanced coldly at the kid standing next to her with a shocked expression on his face.

Xia Nan was slightly startled, obviously not expecting that the people hiding inside would be a child and an old man. At that moment, he subconsciously put away the murderous intent on his body, but his eyes were always fixed on the two of them. And in the next second, Xia Nan grabbed him

He grabbed the kid's collar and lifted him up with one hand.

"It's interesting. The whole village is dead but you two are still alive. It just so happens that I still have many questions to ask you."

When the old man saw that his precious grandson had been arrested, he became anxious.

"I will fight with you!!" The old man yelled and rushed over. When he rushed over, he forgot to pick up a stone from the ground.

Aiming at Xia Nan's head, the old man slapped him with a brick!

………………

A few minutes later, Kolan Village was in ruins.

"So, you two are not local villagers? But you escaped from Tian Country two years ago?"

Looking at the grandfather and grandson who were tied together by him, Xia Nan pulled up a chair and sat down immediately, putting on a scrutinizing expression and asked.

Xia Nan did not harm the somewhat funny grandfather and grandson. Although the courage of the old man to rush over and give him a brick was indeed commendable. However, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Xia Nan still decisively subdued the two of them.

They were tied up and questioned.

Through questioning, I learned that the old man’s name is Tamura Ken, and the child next to him is the grandson of his family’s fourth generation. His ancestors have been genuine farmers in the Country of Fields for generations, and have survived in the Country of Fields for nearly a hundred years. According to common sense,

, for people like this who have lived on the same land for generations, it is impossible for them to go all the way to the Land of Fire to survive without any reason.

The old man Tamura explained to Xia Nan that they did not want to come but something happened in Tian Country, and their family had to leave their hometown because they had no choice.

And we have to start talking about this matter about two years ago...

The country of Tian was originally a small, fertile and peaceful country. Although the country was not big, it was rich in crops. In a peaceful period without war, it was possible to have enough food and clothing. In this chaotic ninja era, it would be good to have food to eat every day, especially

This is especially true for people of the older generation like Tamura Ken.

In fact, if it hadn't been for what happened later, Tamura Ken probably would never have left Tian Country in this life, or even the village where their ancestors had lived for generations.

But there is nothing we can do. If we don’t leave, it won’t work. If we don’t leave, everything will be lost.

I remember it was in the summer. On his way back from going to the fields with a hoe, Tamura suddenly heard someone in the village saying that a man from a certain family was missing. This was already the second case of disappearance in the village at that time, but

It caused quite a stir.

That day, the whole village went looking for them. At that time, Tamura Ken’s eldest son and younger son also went with them. But they didn’t know what happened. Those who went out that day didn’t come back from morning to late at night. When they arrived in the village,

By the time other people realize something is wrong, it's too late.

All the more than 20 young adults who went out disappeared inexplicably, and no one could come back. At that time, there were rumors in the village that the villagers' foolishness angered the mountain god, so they were taken away by the mountain god and became slaves. But Tamura Ken did not

Believe this, he has lived here for generations and has never heard of such a thing.

So one day Tamura Ken planned to go out to look for his son. He didn’t know why that day, but he was obsessed with bringing his grandson with him. The grandson and grandson went up the mountain to look for him together, but they found nothing after searching for a whole day.

, the grandfather and grandson returned to the village helplessly.

But how could I have imagined that when I returned to the village...

The village is gone.

"The village is gone?"

Xia Nan frowned and continued: "Do you mean that the village was destroyed, or that the village and its land disappeared together?"

"Destroyed, destroyed by a talking monster!"

Tamura Ken went on to say that when he took his grandson back that night, he heard a burst of chaotic shouting in front of him, and then the ground began to shake non-stop. At first Tamura Ken thought it was an earthquake, so he came quickly

He followed his grandson and hid in an open space aside, away from the mountain wall.

And it was at this time that Tamura Ken saw the direction of the village, and suddenly a huge purple tail lifted up from the ground. A flick of the tail could bring up a roaring hurricane, and there was a faint "sacrifice" in the roaring wind.

"Not enough to eat" came the words, and the dull tone contained strong dissatisfaction and murderous intent.

The monster didn't stay for long, but it was the longest 20 minutes in Tamura's life. When the monster left, the place where it had wreaked havoc had been razed to the ground, and the hundreds of villagers inside were gone.

If anyone survives, they will probably be eaten alive by the monster just now.

"I can't forget it now. When the monster was devouring humans, the screams made by my fellow villagers were so loud that they had no human voice. Those who were lucky enough to be swept to death by its tail could still be considered whole corpses.

, the worst thing is those who were eaten alive... I really can’t even think about it. Their screams are lingering in my ears day and night, torturing my heart."

"But I have no regrets or fear. I can't help them or save them. It's great luck that I can escape with my grandson. How can I still have the strength to take care of those people?"

Ken Tamura wiped away his tears and hugged his grandson tightly.
