A family of three travels through time together, and the golden finger is turned on
Chapter 369 4 Yi Village
"Siyi Village is not far ahead. Let's go over there and make sure not to disturb the people inside." Gu Can dismounted and tied the horse to a nearby tree. Qin Kong and Xue Zhiyun also dismounted.
The three of them approached Siyi Village cautiously. The closer they got, the stranger things seemed.
"It seems like there is no one." Qin Kong said with a frown.
"Even if it's not the right time now, it's meal time and rest time, so there shouldn't be no one for the elderly and children." Xue Zhiyun replied.
Siyi Village wasn't very large, with only about twenty households. The houses were all similar in layout and looked somewhat run-down. When the three of them entered, there was no sign of people, not even the barking of chickens or dogs. It was so silent that it seemed as if there were no living creatures besides the three of them.
The courtyard gate and the house doors were all open.
Qin Kong knocked on the door with his sword and walked into a house first. Things were scattered on the ground, unfinished food was on the table, and some bowls and chopsticks had fallen to the ground.
The food on the table has gone moldy.
I was in such a hurry that I even lost my shoes.
"Did they encounter something terrible? Why are they so panicked?" He looked at several houses in succession. From all the traces at the scene, it seemed that they had suddenly seen something terrible and fled in panic.
"It's a pity that it's been too long and we can't tell where they ran to." Qin Kong said helplessly.
"Step back." After Gu Can said that, Qin Kong and Xue Zhiyun immediately stepped back.
A piece of talisman paper rose into the air, and then the entire yard was covered by a curtain of light. Time passed quickly until human figures began to appear and the scene returned to normal.
It was a simple and happy family of five. The couple, their two sons, and their daughter were having a simple meal.
Brown rice porridge, multi-grain steamed bread, pickled vegetables, and boiled sweet potatoes.
But the family was enjoying their meal. Then someone knocked on the door. Everyone was surprised. Who would go to someone else's house at dinner time?
But the man still got up and opened the door.
"No one's there?" The man opened the door and saw no one. But Gu Can and the other two, who were outside the screen, saw it. It was a long tongue knocking on the door.
The man closed the door and was about to go back, but was suddenly entangled by a red object.
"Husband (Daddy!)" The people in the yard were shocked when they saw this and wanted to run over.
Then a huge toad came and squeezed the gate of the courtyard down.
The hostess picked up her youngest daughter and ran into the house.
"Run!" they shouted as they ran, and the two older children quickly followed. The toad no longer used its tongue to roll them up, and the three children, one big and one small, ran out the back door. The toad transformed into the man he had just rolled in.
"What kind of monster is this? With such abilities, it can easily replace others and blend into the crowd." Qin Kong's face turned ugly.
"What kind of talisman is this, young boss? It's really powerful. If we trace it back like this, we will soon find the reason." Xue Zhiyun looked at Gu Can with more scrutiny.
"It's just a trifle. There are no survivors in this village. Let's go to the back mountain and see if there's anything left." Gu Can said nothing more. She had also created this past reappearance talisman by accident. The longer it took to reappear, the more spiritual energy it consumed. It still needed to be improved.
"Why don't we look for it separately?" Xue Zhiyun suggested.
"Okay, be careful in this forest." Qin Kong thought about it and agreed.
"Not appropriate." Gu Can shook his head.
"The toad demon's abilities are weird. If he comes back, how can he prove that he is still himself? Suspicion and suspicion towards each other will only waste time." Gu Can said directly.
"It's my fault for not thinking it through." Xue Zhiyun replied immediately.
"Master Xue is also worried about the people. However, at this time, we must remain calm and not give the enemy any opportunity to exploit loopholes."
"But searching aimlessly like this is not a solution. This mountain is not small." Qin Kong said.
"Indeed, it is a toad monster, and it is related to water sources. We should go to the humid place, which should be right." Xue Zhiyun thought about it and returned.
"In that case, let's go this way." Gu Can did not refute.
The three of them searched along the way, and in the distance they heard a burly man's voice. It seemed he was singing, and he sounded cheerful.
"Did you hear anything?" Gu Can asked.
"It seems like someone is singing?" Qin Kong was also a little unsure.
"I heard it too." Xue Zhiyun was quite certain.
"There are actually clues that are delivered to my door?" Gu Can muttered to himself, is this a case of being so skilled and bold?
"Since he's here, let's go meet him." Qin Kong drew his sword and walked in front of the two of them. Gu Can and Xue Zhiyun didn't object.
There was only one village nearby, Siyi. As they walked along, there wasn't even the sound of insects; it was as silent as a dead mountain. And now, suddenly, someone was singing so happily? It was strange no matter how you looked at it.
Gu Can had already used the power of the mountain god. He saw the man singing. He was a woodcutter in his thirties, dark and strong. He was actually carrying firewood and walking with great joy.
"Let's go this way." Gu Can suddenly sent a voice message to the two of them, and then walked in the opposite direction. Qin Kong and Xue Zhiyun looked at each other and followed without asking any questions.
The further they walked, the stranger it felt. Although they were heading in a different direction, the singing was getting closer and closer. Qin Kong and Xue Zhiyun roughly guessed what Gu Can was thinking.
When they reached a stream, they saw the singer, a dark and strong woodcutter. He was squatting by the stream drinking water. Gu Can looked at the two people beside him, sighed, and took the initiative to walk forward.
"Hello, big brother. How do I get to Siyi Village?"
"Ah, you, who are you and why are you asking about Siyi Village?" The man looked frightened.
"The three of us brothers and sisters came here to look for our relatives, but we got lost in this forest with so many forked paths."
"You all look like distinguished people. How could you be relatives from Siyi Village? People from Siyi Village seldom go out and haven't seen outsiders for decades. Please don't deceive me." The woodcutter said nervously.
"In that case, big brother is from Siyi Village. I am not lying. We are looking for my grandparents' home. My mother has been away from home for more than 30 years. This time, my brother has graduated from high school, so we must come to pick up my grandparents and reunite with them." Gu Can was serious and sincere.
Qin Kong and Xue Zhiyun looked at each other. This young boss was indeed a young boss. He could tell stories right away.
"Where is your maternal grandparents' home?"
"My maternal grandfather's surname is Zhang, and his name is Younian. He should be over 70 this year. I don't know if he is still alive. My eldest uncle's name is Zhang Lidong, my second uncle's name is Zhang Xiaoman, and my third uncle's name is Zhang Chongyang."
"So it's Sister Lixia's child. Sister Lixia is doing well. Look at me, and look at you guys. Sister Lixia must be doing well."
"You actually recognize my mother? She is doing fine now, but she just misses her family. Could you please lead the way for us?" Gu Can looked at the woodcutter with joy.
"Okay, okay, you guys come with me. Sister Lixia left thirty years ago. Back then, I was still little, and Sister Lixia even treated me to candy. That candy was really sweet."
"May I know your name?" Gu Can asked politely.
"Hey, just call me Uncle Xu. Haha, my name is Xu Sangen, or you can call me Uncle Sangen. The kids in the village all call me that." The woodcutter smiled a little foolishly.
"Uncle Sangen, I'm glad to meet you today. I wonder if grandpa is in good health?" Gu Can immediately called out obediently.
"Uncle Younian is still healthy. He can have a bowl of brown rice porridge and a big sweet potato for a meal. He always likes to stroll around the village when he has nothing to do."
"That's good. Where are the uncles? We just came here without any prior knowledge. We don't know if there are any other rules in this village."
"Villagers, what's the big deal? Just come. Uncle Younian will definitely be happy."
