The host of the quick travel is lacking in virtue for eight generations

Chapter 362 The hero's stumbling block on the road to escape from the famine 13

They did not dare to rest at night and kept on traveling. It was not until dawn that they found a relatively secluded village to rest.

They originally thought that there was no one in the village, but when they went in, they found that there were still people inside, just a few old people.

When he heard the noise of them entering the village, he did not come out, but hid at the door and looked through the crack. It was Xiao Yun who noticed something was wrong and asked Xiao Lin to ask about the weeds here.

Xiao Yun did not say it directly, but deliberately looked towards a room that was making some noise.

Then the sensitive Gu Lanzhang also looked over there. Just like that, everyone stopped and looked over there. At that moment, the old man in the room panicked and tripped over his left foot and almost fell down.

Although he didn't fall, the door made a loud noise when he held on to it.

Before anyone else could say anything, Gu Mingli shouted, "Who are you? What are you doing sneaking around? Come out!"

Xiao Yun and Gu Lanzhang closed their eyes at the same time and resisted the urge to hold their foreheads.

I don’t know if his heart and mind were divided among his whole family, leaving him with nothing. He is really the most heartless one in the family, and his mouth always speaks faster than his brain.

You would say he is stupid, but that's not the case. He is just reckless and doesn't like to use his brain. He always rushes to the front and is easily used as a tool.

Xiao Yun looked at Gu Lanzhang and his two elder sons. These three were so cunning that they were almost like sieves. They kept asking her questions along the way. If she hadn't lived for who knows how many years and experienced so many worlds, she probably wouldn't be able to handle it. She was almost suffering from claustrophobia.

Of course, she also knew that her rescue plan was full of loopholes. Apart from other things, the drug itself was not something that an ordinary person could get.

There are folk drugs for intoxication, but there are definitely none that are so effective.

Because this plan was decided by Xiao Yun on the spur of the moment, he could only tell his two adopted daughters that the item was found in an empty house.

Fortunately, they had found some medicinal powder in a better-off family before, but it was just some mulberry leaf powder and castor powder, used for making cosmetics. She was cautious at the time and didn't tell them, so she was able to get away with it later.

However, Gu Lanzhang and his two sons were a little skeptical. How could it be such a coincidence that they could find the drug just by thinking of saving someone? If it weren't for their two daughters nodding beside them, they would have kept asking questions in a roundabout way.

After testing along the way, they confirmed that this was their wife/mother. Apart from her courage and strength, her tone of voice and subconscious movements had not changed. She still remembered everything from the past and was not possessed by a ghost.

That's right, the father and his two sons immediately thought of the possibility of being possessed by ghosts. In ancient times, farmers did not have much entertainment, and most of the time the elders in the family told stories to the children, and the stories were about mountain spirits, monsters, and lonely ghosts.

If only Xiao Yun became stronger, they might have more doubts, but Gu Mingyue and Gu Mingxing also became stronger.

In addition, Gu Mingyue was able to run so far with her mother on her back before. Although they didn't understand the potential that could be stimulated in an emergency, they didn't think it was a ghost.

This kind of situation has happened in the village before. Someone went up the mountain to hunt and encountered a ferocious beast, and then he killed the beast with his bare hands. You have to know that other people might not be able to succeed even if they had weapons.

There were also cases where a cow was frightened and was forcibly caught, cases where an animal fell into the water and suddenly learned to swim, and so on, so they also understood it this way.

However, Xiao Yun decided that he would not use space and space links easily in the days to come, and even Xiao Lin would try not to make any moves in front of them.

The old man inside the door must have confirmed that they did not look like ferocious monsters, so he opened the door tremblingly.

He carefully looked at them and said, "Are you passing through our village or are you here to live with your relatives? There are not many people in our village anymore. If you are here to live with your relatives, I'm afraid it will be a wasted trip..."

Gu Lanzhang stepped forward and said, "Thank you for your courtesy, old man. We are passing by here and want to find a place to rest. We thought there was no one in the village, but we didn't expect you to be here. So we won't disturb you and will find another place."

Hearing what he said, someone in a nearby yard opened the door and an elderly couple came out, followed by four or five more people.

The old man spoke first: "You don't have to leave. I don't think you are bad people. You seem to be literate. We old guys don't have many days left to live. We are afraid of dying in a foreign land and haven't left.

There are many empty houses in the village now. If you don’t mind, you can move in. We won’t disturb you.”

Gu Lanzhang clasped his fists and bowed again, "Father-in-law, that's not right. It's us who are disturbing you. Our family will find a room to rest and leave in the afternoon."

The others just listened quietly and didn't come up to talk or ask anything. It was obvious that they were following the old man's lead.

The old man smiled and waved his hand and said, "No need to be so polite. The courtyards to the west of the village are relatively intact and closer to the well. You can go there."

Gu Lanzhang: "Thank you for your advice, father-in-law..."

One of the old ladies couldn't help but said: "Oh, this scholar is so polite, just like the scholar I saw in town. You should go and have a rest, your little girl can't even open her eyes~"

Gu Lanzhang looked at his little daughter whose eyelids were drooping, and a look of distress flashed in his eyes. The little girl had suffered a lot along the way. She had been jogging to keep up with their pace, and she must have been exhausted.

He didn't say any more to the old people. He bowed, took two steps back and said goodbye. Then he led his family to the west of the village.

He actually wanted to walk a little further to see if there were any other deserted villages, but seeing that the children all looked extremely tired, he decided to take a rest, eat something, and leave in the afternoon.

I originally wanted to stay here for another night, but now it’s not possible. Although they are all elderly people, who knows if there are other people here? I’d better not take the risk.

They found a yard at the edge, which was surrounded by a fence and had no walls. Although they did not feel safe, they could always pay attention to the situation outside and leave in time if there was any problem.

A few people casually ate some dry food brought from the kitchen, the kind given to strong men. Although it was a bit sore to the throat, it contained body-building pills and was beneficial to eat.

Gu Lanzhang let his wife and children go to bed first, while he kept an eye on them just in case.

Their side is still relatively calm for the time being, but it is different for Yaoyao and A Yuan.
