I just want to be a middleman

"Believe me, try it, I guarantee it's delicious!" Everyone has different tastes, so Qian Duoduo still advised them to try it and then decide whether they like it or not.

Si Lingwei had eaten everything before, and now she had no pressure to eat it. After eating spicy hot pot, she started to eat snail noodles.

All that could be heard was the sound of slurping noodles. Zhong Tiyi and Wang Xiao were the first to try it and found it not that difficult to accept.

All that could be heard was the sound of people slurping noodles.

"This thing is really weird. It smells stinky but tastes delicious."

"I think it's delicious, especially the chicken feet in it. So flavorful."

"I believe Duoduo is right." Si Lingwei put down her chopsticks after eating two or three bowls. She really couldn't eat anymore.

Every time we eat with Qian Duoduo, everyone eats like little piglets, feeling bloated. After the meal, we take digestion pills or use spiritual power to promote digestion.

"Okay, let's finish eating, pack up and set off." Qian Duoduo looked at the sky outside which was getting light. Even if they didn't set out, they had to pack up the house first, otherwise it would be bad if other villagers saw them.

"This house needs to be put away first to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings." Qi Chenjing understood the meaning of Qian Duoduo's words.

"Okay, let's go. Let Duoduo clean up the house first." Si Lingwei collected her tableware and put it away.

Everyone brings their own tableware for meals, which is very convenient.

Qian Duoduo tidied up the things on the table and put them into the space, and didn't worry about anything else.

After packing up the house, several people set off towards Taohua Village.

-

Taohua Village is a small village famous for its many peach blossoms. The people here are very simple and honest, and there are peach blossoms on both sides of the mountains.

It will take another month or two to see the peach blossoms in full bloom, because peach blossoms bloom in March and April, and it is not January yet.

The few of them traveled quickly and when they arrived at the entrance of Taohua Village, there was a sign with the words "Taohua Village" written on it, and there were many peach blossom patterns on it.

It is very flat here, with villagers' houses scattered together and farmland on the other side. It doesn't look like there is anything special here.

When the first ray of sunlight came in, Qian Duoduo saw the whole village shrouded in gold, and other people also noticed it.

Just looking at the layout of the village, there is no strange formation, and looking at the peach trees on the mountain, there is nothing strange either.

The main reason is that there are too many peach trees, all over the mountains, and you can't see them all even if you are dazzled.

"Should we go in and take a look?" Yun Qifei asked a very stupid question.

"What do you think?"

"What I mean is, do we all have to go in and take a look? Will we be wiped out all at once..." What he said makes a lot of sense.

Qi Chenjing thought for a moment and said, "Then let's split into two teams. One team will go in to gather information, and the other team will wait outside."

Yun Qifei: "The three of us, Duoduo, Wang Xiao, and I, will go in."

"Okay, then you go ahead, and be careful." It's enough to bring someone who can think, someone who can fight, and someone who can liven up the atmosphere.

Qian Duoduo took Yun Qifei and Wang Xiao in. Everything was normal. There were people there, and smoke was rising above some houses.

It seems that he has already gotten up early to cook. Qian Duoduo is thinking about whether to visit him. Although he is not eating at someone else's house, he would feel a little uncomfortable watching them eat.

"Shall we go now?"

"Let's go now."

Listening to the conversation between Yun Qifei and Wang Xiao, Qian Duoduo changed his mind and thought, since they were here to solve the problem, there was no need to worry about such a small matter.

The important thing is the disappearance of villagers.

They randomly picked a house, and Qian Duoduo and the other two stood at the door. Fortunately, they brought Yun Qifei with them.

"Is anyone there? Is anyone there?" Yun Qifei looked at the smoke from the kitchen rising into the air, then knocked on the door.

After waiting for a while, no one responded, "Is anyone there?" Yun Qifei started knocking on the door again.

The door opened and an old woman with white hair showed half of her face. "What can I do for you?"

"Old man, we are here to solve the problem of missing villagers. We want to know what happened and some other details." Yun Qifei made it clear the purpose of our trip.

"Then... please come in." The old woman opened the door and let Qian Duoduo and others in.

Farm tools used in farm work were placed in the yard, and there was also a stone table outside the house. Qian Duoduo and his friends did not go into the house, but chose to sit in the yard.

"You guys eat first, we'll talk after dinner." Wang Xiao looked at the young woman who was cooking in the house and the child peeking through the window.

The old woman went in and continued cooking without any pretense of agreement with Qian Duoduo and his group.

Qian Duoduo discovered that apart from the child, there was no male in the family. Could it be that all the missing people were men?

The child in the room is also a boy.

The old woman came out and asked Qian Duoduo and others to have dinner together. Yun Qifei first thanked her and then refused. Although they did not enter the house, they could see with their spiritual sense that the food was not very good.

Besides, there is not that much food, so don’t waste other people’s food.

The three of them waited in the yard for the family to finish their meal, and occasionally sounds could be heard coming from the house.

The three of them really didn't want to listen, but they couldn't hear it with their spiritual consciousness.

The child's tender voice rang out: "Grandma, what are those people outside doing?"

"Come and help us find grandpa and your father."

"Mom, are you reliable? Don't be like those people who came before."

"I don't know. Let's try again. We'll tell them what we know later. We can't do the rest."

"Ah."

"........."

The meal was quickly finished inside, and only the child was still eating slowly. The old woman raised the window so that she could see the child eating from outside.

The old woman and her daughter-in-law came out and sat down in the yard, then slowly began to talk about Taohua Village.

The first person to disappear was Li Ergou from the village. He did nothing all day and had never gotten married. His brothers had already gotten married and moved out to start new households.

Li Ergou lived with his parents. When he first disappeared, his family thought he had gone out to fool around again. After waiting for a few days and still not coming back, his parents went to find the village chief.

The village chief still recruited the villagers to look for him. After all, they had watched him grow up and didn't want to see any accidents happen.

The villagers searched both mountains over and over again, and also searched the entire village with their dogs, but still couldn't find the missing person. The village chief suggested that his family go to the town to ask.

There is no trace of him after asking around. If something really happened, he might have gone to the underworld to drink Meng Po soup.

Li Ergou was not found, and someone else went missing in the village. This time, the missing person was a family-loving man. When there was no work in the fields, he would go to the town to find work. Before leaving home in the morning, he would tell his wife that he would bring something back in the evening.

He didn't come back at night, and his wife thought he had too much work to do and had to stay overnight in town. This had happened before. When he still didn't come back the next afternoon, his wife went to the place where he often worked in town to ask him.

He said he finished his work yesterday afternoon and went back.

Now the wife thought of Li Ergou’s disappearance and became panicked, wondering if her husband was also missing.

After asking in the town, she went back to the village to find the village chief and asked him to gather people to help find her husband.

This time Murakami quickly gathered good people, but still couldn't find them.
