The result was just as Xu Qiudong expected, no Gu man appeared.

It seems that those poison people are afraid of the sun, especially when the sun is at its strongest.

Xu Qiudong dusted himself off, put on a cold face, suppressed his inner displeasure, and turned away.

She has to be steady now.

So she had to hurry on her way and find a place to stay before the sun went down.

Along the way, Xu Qiudong's life was not much more comfortable than the original owner. When he was hungry, he set up some small traps and caught small animals.

At this time, compared to other people, Xu Qiudong lives a relatively comfortable life. At least he has enough food and drink, and he has meat for every meal.

That day, it was almost dark and Xu Qiudong still hadn't found a place to rest for the night.

As she walked along, it was already dark. Xu Qiudong vaguely saw a village not far away.

There are still candlelights in the village, which means there must be people there.

Xu Qiudong walked over.

There were a few young and strong young men standing at the village gate. They were all surprised when they saw Xu Qiudong.

A beautiful woman? Late at night? A wedding dress?

A beautiful woman in a wedding dress appears late at night, which looks weird no matter how you look at it.

It can’t be a ghost.

Thinking of this, those people looked at Xu Qiudong warily.

"Who are you?"

One of the brave men approached Xu Qiudong with a candle in his hand, holding an axe tightly in his other hand.

"I walked here from a nearby town."

It was obvious that those men were the gatekeepers of the village, working tirelessly to protect their common home.

The man holding the candle and approaching Xu Qiudong lowered his head and saw the shadow on the ground. He then felt relieved and nodded to the people behind him.

The men also hurried over and asked questions in unison.

"May I have your name?"

"How did you get here?"

"Are you married?"

“…”

Although they were all boring questions, Xu Qiudong still answered them one by one.

In just a few seconds, her remaining patience was exhausted.

"Xu Qiudong, he ran over here. The groom died on the wedding day."

"ah?"

As soon as Xu Qiudong said this, the eyes of those men dimmed instantly.

It turned out that the groom was the one who survived and died.

This is what they think of Xu Qiudong now.

In their opinion, if the groom dies on the wedding day, it is more serious than if he dies after the wedding.

They would say that Xu Qiudong had a bad luck and killed the groom.

This alone is enough to discourage so many men.

Xu Qiudong seemed oblivious to their sudden change of expression and continued to ask, "Is there any room available? I'd like to stay here for one night."

The men looked at Xu Qiudong with hidden evil in their eyes. "There are no vacant houses in our village."

No matter how beautiful a woman is, if she doesn't want his life, she is not as important to them as food.

So, they rejected Xu Qiudong without thinking.

Xu Qiudong couldn't force them, so he could only nod and leave.

Looks like I need to find a new place to live.

Just as Xu Qiudong turned around and took a few steps, a voice suddenly called her.

"etc."

Xu Qiudong turned around and saw a man holding a whisk. He glanced at Xu Qiudong and asked the other men, "What is this donor doing here?"

As soon as this man appeared, the other men immediately became respectful. They bowed and said, "Master, this woman wants to stay here for one night."
