Yue Chuo was slightly interested in the man's calmness in dealing with things, but that was all. As someone who grew up in a metropolitan city, such things that attracted crowds of people to watch were no longer strange to him. The so-called matter had nothing to do with him.
I didn't think about it any further.
At this time, the surrounding area was already crowded with people, and Dongfang Yan and Phil Frye also squeezed into the crowd.
The middle-aged man did not wait for the old village chief to express his opinion, and bowed slightly. The disdain on his face made this polite gesture disrespectful. Then he turned around, pushed away everyone, and walked towards the entrance of the village.
When passing by Yue Chuo, he unexpectedly went against his usual composure and stopped and stared at Yue Chuo for a long time. When he saw Yue Chuo looking at him with an extremely calm expression, a flash of light flashed on his face.
There was a brief moment of astonishment. Then he strode away from the village.
When Yuechuo withdrew his eyes from watching the middle-aged man leave, he noticed that Dongfang Yan and Phil Fry were walking this way. Before they could reach him, Dongfang Yan nodded to Phil Fry.
Expressing understanding, he turned and walked in the direction of Dong Yi.
"The old village chief wants to see us." Dongfang Yan, who had just stood still, said in a deep voice. He paused for a moment and then added in a more serious tone, "Everyone!"
"You guys go first." Kristine seemed to feel Yue Chuo's questioning gaze on her, and nodded, "I will come after a few words with the person who is helping with the cooking."
Yue Chuo, Lucky and Dongfang Yan had just sat down in the old village chief's hut when Dong Yi and Phil Fry pushed the door open. Dong Yi's face was as calm and cold as usual, but Phil Fry's face was serious.
Prayer and helplessness.
Yue Chuo could guess without thinking that it was Phil Fry who had spoken to Dong Yi on behalf of Dongfang Yan, hoping to improve the relationship between the two. However, Dong Yi's noncommittal attitude made him unable to do anything.
Not long after, Christine also arrived under the guidance of a village girl. The village girl helped her sit on an empty stool between Dongfang Yan and Dong Yi, then left and carefully closed the door.
.
The old village chief looked frustrated and curled up in a rocking chair. Seeing that everyone had arrived, he slowly grabbed the chimney placed on the small table beside him, lit it, took a deep breath, and exhaled a pungent breath.
of thick smoke, and then handed the chimney to Yue Chuo beside him.
When Yue Chuo gets addicted to cigarettes these days, he often borrows pipes from the villagers to smoke. The old village chief also tried the pipe once, and the strong and choking smoke was really too much for him. But he had a busy day today.
The water was working and there was no chance to smoke, so I took it without hesitation.
"Let's go, the sooner the better." After Yuechuo carefully took his first puff of cigarette, the old village chief said, "I have already asked people to prepare the boat and supplies, and go north along the coast.
If something unexpected happens, you can return to Sold within two days."
"Why is this!" Yue Chuo pointed at Dongfang Yan and Phil Frye in surprise, "Is it because there are two freeloaders?"
"Who is freeloading!" Dongfang Yan glared at Yuechao angrily, and pointed at Phil Frye and said, "You said he is not bad, but I have been helping the villagers treat their illnesses since I came here."
Fairfly never expected that the two of them would point the finger at him at the same time, and his face suddenly turned green and white, feeling extremely embarrassed.
"No! No! No!" The old village chief waved his hands repeatedly and said gratefully, "Although it was the villagers who rescued you from the seaside, you have helped the village a lot in the past few days."
After a pause, he said to Dongfang again: "I wanted to ask you to help me take a look at this old problem of cold, dampness and pain later, but it seems I have no chance."
