The Immortal God of War
Chapter 41: Weird Village
After getting off the carriage, he found that there was no abandoned residential area. Liu Chi took out the map and compared it with the terrain repeatedly before he determined his current approximate location.
Thinking that the coachman had been gone for a long time, Liu Chi immediately complained, "I got tricked!"
"Husband!" "Master~!"
Yang Xi and Lilith called out to Liu Chi at the same time. They smiled at each other, then stopped and motioned for the other to speak first.
Liu Chi saw the two silent people and smiled, "Let's go over there a little bit. It looks like we may get there before night."
Liu Chi walked in front first, and the two girls quickly followed. Yang Xi took Liu Chi's arm, while Lilith followed beside him.
After leaving the city, the coachman's original journey would take nearly five hours. It was already past four in the afternoon. After the three of them walked for an hour, they finally saw a group of villages in front of them. At first glance, they had a bit of an illusion that the villages in the other world actually had some of the flavor of the villages in the original world.
It took the trio some time to finally enter the village. Just as the client had described, the place was deserted for some reason, the doors of the houses were not locked, and the interiors of the houses were neat and tidy as if they had just been cleaned.
"Let's start looking. We'll just find a random house to rest in at night." Liu Chi announced the start of the mission. For safety reasons, the three did not separate for the sake of efficiency. Instead, they took out the weapons they had prepared in advance in case of any danger that might arise at any time.
Not long after the three of them started moving, it got dark, so they had no choice but to come to a house they had just chosen. This room could be locked from the inside, and the windows were not big. The most fundamental thing was that there were two beds, one big and one small, in the room.
He took out the flint and candle from the space ring, and soon the dim room became bright. After locking the door outside the room, Liu Chi returned to the room and locked the door again, then pulled the windows and curtains. This way it would be relatively safer. Otherwise, if he rested openly in the middle of the night, even if it was safe, he would not sleep well.
In the room, Liu Chi took out some dry food and shared it with the two of them. After he finished eating, he lay down on the small bed, leaving the big bed for Yang Xi and Lilith.
After the three of them finished their conversation in a low voice, they extinguished the candles and the room became dark. Soon Liu Chi fell asleep. I followed him into the spiritual sea world and saw him in the small hut as if he was waiting for me on purpose. When he saw me coming, he didn't say a word.
I knew he must be very upset at this moment, the kind that clearly has a lot to say, but it's too confusing and he doesn't know where to start. Seeing his difficulty, I said, "Do you have any clues about the system task?"
"No, I don't even dare to talk to Yang Xi now. The system task is on the verge of failure. Any words from her could end the task directly."
"If the mission fails, will there be any punishment?"
"I will die. If I keep wasting time like this, death will gradually approach me until it catches up with me."
My understanding of what Liu Chi meant was not that the system would let him die, but that the most critical point now was that Liu Chi had to grow up quickly. In a world where strength was everything, after losing his shelter, he had to either survive by strength or accept the slow arrival of death.
Therefore, the system that appeared now has undoubtedly become Liu Chi's life-saving straw, but it is not so easy to grab this straw.
"I understand." I said, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Look forward to the future. How do you feel about Yang Xi?"
Liu Chi glanced at me, then looked away. "I don't feel anything. If it weren't for the system task, I wouldn't pay attention to her."
After listening, I carefully recalled the details of these days and said to Liu Chi, "Yang Xi is not bad. Since nothing can be changed, why don't you change your attitude towards her and try to like her? I feel that since we all thought that the mission had to be completed, we all reduced the importance of Yang Xi in our hearts, and then the mission was in crisis."
After listening to what I said, Liu Chi was a little skeptical, but still agreed with my opinion. He looked at me a few times and then disappeared from my sight. I quickly followed him out of the spiritual sea.
Liu Chi got up in the dark, and the noise disturbed Lilith on the big bed.
"Master, what's wrong?"
"Is that Lilith? How about you come over and sleep on the small bed? Xi'er and I will sleep on it."
The air suddenly became quiet, and after a while Lilith's voice was heard: "Okay, Master."
After Liu Chi slept on the big bed, he realized that Yang Xi was not asleep at all. Seeing that Yang Xi did not take the initiative to hug him through the clothes, Liu Chi directly hugged Yang Xi into his arms and gently touched Yang Xi's forehead.
"Hehe!" Yang Xi couldn't help but laugh twice, then hugged Liu Chi tightly. As Yang Xi exerted force, I felt Yang Xi kissing me.
I tactfully entered the spiritual sea and continued studying until the outside world reached morning, then I went out.
Fortunately, the danger did not occur when I was away. After the three of us got up, washed up and had breakfast, we began searching house by house. Most of the houses we searched looked like they had been turned over. Although they looked tidy on the surface, the inside was already in a mess.
As expected, they worked hard until night and had harvested almost the entire village, but still had no harvest. It was getting dark, and if they stayed another night, the risk would obviously increase greatly. Liu Chi suggested leaving here and going farther away to rest, and the two girls agreed.
After walking a long way away from the village, Liu Chi took out the light stones for lighting. Although the light stones were expensive, the lighting effect was incomparable to that of candles.
The group walked quickly on the grass. Unlike the woods in the east, this area was mainly grass with few forests.
However, things were not always as smooth as expected. On the road at night, a sudden strong wind blew and a group of bats flew over their heads in a dark mass, which made people feel ashamed. After a while, the bats flew back in front of their eyes. Liu Chi felt something was wrong and immediately took out his weapons and handed them to everyone.
The bats flew together and turned into a person. Looking along the light, it turned out to be a handsome man.
“Hehehe~” The man’s voice sounded very old, “I haven’t seen such exquisite food in a long time.”
The man stared at Lilith and said, "I want to savor the royal bloodline carefully, hehehe~"
It was Lilith who realized the danger. Her whole body was instantly wrapped in light blue mist. She jumped towards the man and punched him right in the face. Under the broken skin was a dry face full of wrinkles, which looked like a devil, and I couldn't help but be shocked.
The man stepped aside, tore off his entire face, and looked at Lilith with an excited and weird smile.
"As for shamelessness, just use the people over there to make up for it, hehehe~"
Liu Chi felt frightened by the man's lizard-like eyes.
