In her previous life, during the escape from the apocalypse, she was abandoned by her companions and jointly betrayed by her boyfriend and best friend, resulting in a gruesome death. Fortunately, s...
There were many tables and chairs placed under the lights, and the whole venue was filled with people.
When Jing Yao and the others walked in, they discovered that there was a big problem with this banquet.
Putting aside the placement of the tables and chairs, have you ever seen a banquet decorated in white?!
Not to mention that the tables and chairs formed an arc, with a platform built in the opposite direction.
It was covered with a piece of cloth, which looked like the curtain of a shadow play.
Tao Shu was standing under the light at the entrance, but because of the backlight, his expression could not be seen clearly.
"I don't know why, but I always feel creepy."
"Me too."
"I thought I was the only one."
"Brother Wang, is Jixiang okay?"
The people walking behind Wang Hui saw that Jixiang had kept his eyes closed since he came out.
"What's wrong with it?"
"It has kept its eyes closed since it left the house."
Wang Hui glanced at Jing Yao who was walking in front.
"It's okay, don't worry about it."
"Now that everyone is here, our Taoyuan Village is really lively today."
Tao Shu came up to him with a smile.
"Thank you for your concern, Village Chief Tao."
Xiaoqi walked forward and pulled Tao Shu's sleeve.
"Look at me, hurry up, everyone, please take your seats."
Tao Shu quickly directed the villagers to lead Jing Yao and the others to their seats.
Jing Yao and the others' positions were also carefully chosen, right in the middle of the platform.
Tao Shu and other villagers sat on both sides.
Jing Yao and the others always felt that there was something wrong with the seating arrangement, and especially after they sat down, the strange feeling in their hearts became even stronger.
"Wow, I didn't expect the villagers to prepare such a rich variety of things."
Some team members sighed as they looked at the food on the table.
On the table in front of them was a plate of roast chicken, two cold dishes, four hot dishes, and even a jar of vintage wine.
There are four people at the table. It’s not very rich but it’s enough to eat.
Wang Hui looked at the roast chicken on the table, broke off a chicken leg and handed it to Jixiang.
But unexpectedly, Jixiang struggled violently after seeing the chicken leg.
Wang Hui could only throw the chicken leg back into the plate and comfort Jixiang for a while before he calmed down.
"Brother Wang, have you forgotten that Captain Jing said not to eat the food here? We are not eating it anymore, and you are giving it to Jixiang. Aren't you afraid that Captain Jing will scold you?"
The person next to him pulled Wang Hui's arm.
"I was wrong."
Tao Shu on the other side stood up, opened the seal of the wine jar, poured out a dish of wine, and then pointed at everyone.
"We've had a number of distinguished guests arrive in Taoyuan Village these past few days, so we've specially prepared a banquet to entertain them. Please don't mind our modest appearance!"
"I'll toast to you all with this drink!"
Tao Shu said this and drank the wine in his hand.
The people on Jingyao's side did not move.
The team members looked at their captain, and the captains looked at Jing Yao.
Jing Yao picked up the wine jar in front of her, opened it and poured the wine into the wine bowl in front of her.
No one knows what this wine is made of, but it is red in color and has a faint fragrance.
Jingyao picked up the wine bowl.
"Thank you, Village Chief Tao and the villagers, for your hospitality."
After saying that, he picked up the wine bowl and drank it all.
"Captain Jing!"
"Xiaoyao!"
Kang Ming and Meng Mingyuan shouted in a low voice. Cai Wenming and Li Jie didn't expect Jing Yao to actually drink it.
Jing Yao gestured to them, indicating that they don't need to worry.
She even turned the bowl upside down after drinking to indicate that not a drop was left.
"This girl is truly a heroine!"
Tao Shu praised Jing Yao generously.
Jingyao sat back in her chair.
"Captain Jing, did you really drink it?"
"No, you forgot I have space?"
When she picked up the wine bowl and brought it to her mouth, she had already sent the wine into the space.
At this time, Gongxi was clearing out the things that Jingyao poured in with a melancholy look on his face.
I don't know what the host was doing, bringing in such a smelly thing.
In order to prevent Tao Shu and the villagers from noticing anything, everyone opened the jars of wine in front of them.
Pretending to drink.
In fact, the wine was poured onto the cotton cloth prepared in advance.
Even the food on the table was stuffed into their mouths one chopstick at a time.
In fact, it didn't enter my mouth, and what I chewed and swallowed was just air.
The food was also put into bags prepared in advance.
One by one, they were performing like a non-physical show, chewing and praising the food for being delicious.
Just as we started eating, the table in the middle suddenly lit up.
The sound of drums and music slowly began, and the shadow play began.
Everyone's attention was drawn to the shadow play on the stage.
The moment this voice sounded, Wang Hui felt Jixiang shudder.
Even Meng Mingyuan, who was carrying Ruyi on his back, felt the movement coming from the backpack.
It seemed that Ruyi was trembling.
But before he could even think of taking a look, his attention was focused on the shadow play.
The shadow play on the stage tells a story.
A long time ago, there was a country on Earth that had been wandering for thousands of years.
They traveled all over the earth but could not find a home that suited them.
Until one day, they saw a strange phenomenon in the sky not far away, followed by something falling from the sky.
They walked in that direction until they found a village.
There, they saw something falling from the sky.
That's a person.
However, the man was seriously injured, and the people who found him were unable to give him effective treatment due to limited conditions.
The man thanked these people for accompanying him on his last journey and gave them some things as gifts before he died.
