Fairy Xuanji breathed a sigh of relief as she looked at the town getting closer and closer.
It was already far away from Tongxi City at this time, and it would not be easy for the He family to find this place.
When we arrived outside the town, we discovered that this place was actually a small and simple village.
Because this place is located deep in the mountains, there are no people entering or exiting on the road.
At first glance, there are no officials of the dynasty in this place, so they can rest in peace.
The smoke from cooking fires rose slightly in the village, and it could be seen that there were still people living inside.
There was only one road into the village, and as Fairy Xuanji walked in, the look on her face became cautious.
The village is remote, but no one can say whether the people there will be xenophobic.
If she were like the people in Wangyou City, it would be dangerous given her current physical condition.
Mandrill took the initiative to lead the way. When everyone was about to enter the village, they saw the sculpture that had been erected at the entrance of the village for many years.
The sculpture has been eroded by time, and it can only be vaguely seen that it is a human figure.
"Be careful." Fairy Xuanji reminded.
Her current physical condition is also extremely weak, and if she encounters an enemy, Mandrill will have to face it alone.
If Mandrill is attacked by someone, the three of them may have to answer here.
The mandrill walking in front nodded and his eyes became alert.
After walking for two minutes, they saw an old woman with a hunchback appearing on the road ahead.
The hunchbacked old woman's clothes were extremely crude, made of gray linen, and her whole body was patched. She was carrying a pile of firewood on her back, and she was hobbling.
Fairy Xuanji first stopped, her eyes full of caution, and she looked at the old woman carefully.
However, after observing for a while, she didn't find any real energy flowing in the old woman's body, so she immediately relaxed a lot.
"Cough cough cough!" Qin Xiaofei on the back suddenly coughed, and Youyou opened her eyes.
What caught his eye was the staggering old woman in front of him, which made him frown slightly, "Who is this?"
"We just entered a village." Fairy Xuanji whispered back, "She should be a villager in the village."
"Mandrill, go up and help." Qin Xiaofei thought for a while and finally spoke.
After all, I'm going to stay here for a while now, so it's better to provide some help, so that at least I won't make enemies.
The mandrill stepped forward and wanted to help the old woman lift the firewood on her back, so as to reduce the weight the old woman was bearing.
But as soon as my arm touched the firewood, it felt extremely heavy, and I couldn't lift it up even with all my strength.
This made the mandrill scratch his head in confusion and was stunned on the spot.
After it came to the Dali Dynasty, it ate a lot of good food. According to the level of human cultivation, it was at least in the middle stage of foundation building.
But now he couldn't lift a pile of firewood, which made him extremely confused.
"It's okay, I can just do it myself." The old woman smiled slightly, giving people a very kind feeling.
"Junior Qin Xiaofei, due to some reasons, I have to rest here for a few days." Qin Xiaofei said politely when he saw that the old woman had no intention of taking action.
"Senior, please don't blame me if there is any disturbance."
"It doesn't matter." The old woman was still moving forward reluctantly, "Since you want to recuperate, go to the village."
"It's just that our village is small, so please don't cause trouble."
"Senior, please rest assured that if there is any disturbance, we will leave voluntarily." Qin Xiaofei replied with cupped hands.
He was also afraid that because of himself, the whole village would be implicated.
So I have no intention of staying here for a long time.
"Let's go in first." Fairy Xuanji saw Qin Xiaofei's face getting increasingly ugly.
Qin Xiaofei nodded.
His injuries are quite serious now, and he will definitely not recover if he doesn't rest for a few days.
"Senior, let's go in first." Qin Xiaofei bowed and said goodbye.
The old woman nodded and did not answer.
The three of them moved forward again, heading all the way into the village.
When walking past the sculpture, Qin Xiaofei frowned slightly and looked back.
He noticed something strange in an instant, but it was only a momentary feeling, so he didn't pay attention to it.
I turned around and found that the old woman was still carrying firewood and nothing had changed around her.
This made him shake his head, thinking that he felt wrong.
But the stumbling old woman raised her head and looked at the backs of Qin Xiaofei and others.
After a while, he put away his eyes and continued to move forward.
"Whizzing!"
Two blasts of wind rushed over, and Tie Xuanzi and Xiao Xuanzi came behind the old woman at the same time.
"Old woman, have you seen a man and a woman coming this way with a monkey?" Xiao Xuanzi asked.
The hunchbacked old woman paused and said, "Did your parents never teach you what etiquette is?"
There was a look of displeasure on her old face, and after speaking, she stopped talking to these two people.
"Do you want to die?" Xiao Xuanzi snorted coldly, "Speak quickly and I can spare your life."
He didn't want to get entangled with an old woman here, chasing Qin Xiaofei was the top priority.
Tie Xuanzi looked at the surrounding environment from the side, and at the same time glanced at the old woman with some doubts.
It felt like this old woman was standing in front of him, but he couldn't feel it at all.
"I have lived to such an old age, and I don't care whether I die or not." The old woman reluctantly moved a step.
"But our village does not welcome people who fight or kill."
"Humph, it's a waste of time." Xiao Xuanzi ignored him and strode forward.
Tie Xuanzi was suspicious, but he didn't care.
After all, chasing Qin Xiaofei is the most important thing. If he fails again, he will not be able to face the consequences.
When Xiao Xuanzi passed by the old woman, he snorted coldly.
A slap hit the old woman's head silently.
Tie Xuanzi looked at it and did not make any move to stop him. After all, the old woman was afraid of disturbing the situation and letting Qin Xiaofei run away.
However, a stick of firewood suddenly floated away, and the two of them were knocked away with one blow.
"The murderous intention is not small, I will spare your lives this time. If you continue to be dishonest, I won't be able to spare you." The old woman said disdainfully.
After saying that, the suspended wooden stick returned behind her again.
It even made her feet sink into the soil.
Both Tie Xuanzi and Xiao Xuanzi felt an irresistible force coming from in front of them.
He directly knocked them away and retreated nearly a hundred feet before barely stopping.
Both of them vomited blood and fell to the ground.
"Master!"
Xiao Xuanzi clenched his fists and his face became extremely ugly.
He didn't expect that things would take such a turn, and that the helpless old woman would be so powerful.
"What should we do now?" His face turned cold.
Thinking of the old woman's last threatening words, he also felt a little scared.
After all, the opponent's strength left them with no desire to fight back.
"If you hadn't insisted on taking action, why would the situation be like this?" Tie Xuanzi's eyes were cold.
"Now we can only wait!"
"There is only one way in. We will wait here. I don't believe he can escape."
