Chapter 170 Disaster with Ginseng

An aunt was collecting clothes in the yard. After seeing her, a few of us walked outside the wall of his house and asked.

When the great master saw a few strangers, he looked nervous at first, and then spoke timidly.

"Who are you? What are you doing with the village chief?"

Seeing that the aunt was a little nervous, Lao Wu smiled and said.

"Old sister, we are idle people traveling around. We passed by this village. Seeing that it was getting dark and there was no place to stay, we wanted to ask the village chief to come to his house for convenience."

When the aunt saw Lao Wu, the man looked very kind, and she heard him say that we were idlers traveling around. She seemed to understand our identities, so she hurriedly came over and started talking.

"Oh, that's it. Let me tell you about the village chief's house. If you walk along this road to the front, do you see the big locust tree? Turn left after the big locust tree, and there is the third house.

It’s the village chief’s home.”

After hearing the directions from the great god, the three of us thanked each other again and walked towards the village chief’s house. On the way to the village chief’s house, I looked around the village. The silence of this village was a bit eerie, although

There is smoke everywhere, but it doesn't feel very popular.

"Master, isn't it a little abnormal that this village is so quiet?"

Chang Xiao nodded after hearing what I said.

"Just now at the aunt's house, I found that there was a dog shed in their courtyard, but there were no dogs. From this, it can be seen that all the dogs in the village have probably disappeared."

After hearing what Chang Xiao said, Lao Wu raised his finger and pointed at a mountain not far ahead and said.

"You two, take a look at what's different about the mountain in front of you!"

Following the direction of the old house, luckily it wasn't completely dark, so you could probably see the mountain.

"The fog on this mountain is very unusual!"

I spoke first, and Chang Xiao nodded in agreement after hearing what I said.

"It seems that the problem is on that mountain. Is this where the village chief's home is?"

The three of us walked as we talked, and arrived at the courtyard that the aunt mentioned just now. The courtyard road in front of us is relatively clean, and the house should be the best in the village.

"Sure enough, no matter which village it is in, the village chief's house is the best."

Seeing the house in front of me, I couldn't help but speak. Lao Wu and Chang Xiao nodded in agreement after hearing what I said.

"Is the village chief at home?"

After Lao Wu opened his mouth and shouted twice, he heard someone in the room respond twice.

"Who's here? It's almost dark. What are you doing here?"

Then I saw a middle-aged man wearing some clothes walking out of the house. He walked to the door and saw three strangers. The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment and then asked.

"who are you?"

"A few of us are idlers traveling around. When we don't get here to your village, it's already dark and we don't have a place to stay. I wonder if the village chief won't be able to take us in."

It was Lao Wu who came forward to deal with the village chief. The village chief looked the three of us up and down and saw that we didn't look like bad people, so he let the three of us into the yard.

"Are you just wandering idlers?"

The village chief asked suspiciously, the three of us nodded together, and the village chief continued.

"We don't have any guest houses or anything like that in this village. Now that you're here, you can stay here today. The conditions are relatively simple, so don't dislike it."

After hearing what the village chief said, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart. Farmers are the most simple people. If I were in the city, I would probably be looked down upon and called crazy.

We followed the village chief into their house. The decoration inside the house was very simple, but also very clean and tidy. A middle-aged woman was busy on the stove. It was obvious that they were also cooking.

"Hey, a friend is coming!"

The middle-aged woman stood up and spoke. After hearing what the woman said, the village chief spoke.

"These are masters. The food will be cooked soon."

Hearing the village chief call the three of us masters, the three of us looked at each other without saying anything, and then the middle-aged woman spoke.

"It's already cooked. Come in and clean up before you can eat."

After a while, a table of simple farm food was served on the table. The village chief greeted the three of us warmly. At this time, Lao Wu asked again.

"Village chief, how do you say we are masters?"

The village chief said after hearing Lao Wu's question.

"You can make a rough guess just by looking at the costumes of the three of you. In addition, the recent events in our village have probably spread a lot. The only person who dares to enter our village at this time and when it is dark is the master."

After hearing the village chief's explanation, Old Wu smiled and spoke.

"The village chief is really serious. The master can't talk about it. The three of us have indeed heard that there are some strange things happening in your village recently. We want to come and take a look. If we can help, we will definitely help."

After the village chief heard what Lao Wu said, he was very excited and spoke.

"It's really great. You know, just because of this incident, everyone in our village is terrified. Even people from neighboring villages don't dare to deal with us."

"It's inconvenient for the village chief to explain it to us in detail."

Old Wu spoke again, and the village chief sighed after hearing Old Wu ask this.

"Well, there were signs of this happening. It's just that we were confused for a moment and didn't take it seriously. Now that it has become like this, we can't regret it."

Then the village chief told us the whole story.

It turned out that a few months ago, Lao Li from the village went up the mountain to pick some wild products. When he walked to the back mountain, he saw a ginseng plant. That ginseng was a rare find in a hundred years.

After seeing the ginseng, Lao Li ran forward and wanted to dig up the ginseng so that he could sell it for some money. When he came to the side of the ginseng, he discovered that there was actually a ginseng growing next to it.

Many small ginseng plants.

This time, Lao Li was so happy that it was very difficult to get so many small ginseng plants. If they all grew up, it would be a big unexpected income.

Just when he was trying to dig up the large ginseng tree in the prison, he suddenly discovered that there seemed to be something connected to the bottom of the large ginseng tree.

As Lao Li dug deeper and deeper, he discovered that this large ginseng tree was really quite big. There seemed to be a thin red line next to the body that the large ginseng tree grew out of.

"Is this ginseng already owned? Is it tied with a red thread to mark it?"
