Bai Ye turned over and got out of bed, kicked the sleeping dog and walked out.
The other side.
Most of the other selected people stayed at home to enjoy the peace and quiet.
After all, they are likely to be beaten as soon as they go out.
Of course, some of the selected candidates don’t have to worry about this. They can’t stay at home and choose to go out for a walk.
The most active ones are Ian from the beautiful country and Alan from the romantic country.
Ian was in a house, explaining the Bible to a family.
Both the old and the young love to listen to it, but the young people have already gone out to do farm work.
After speaking at this place for about half an hour, he moved to another place to continue speaking.
The villagers' attitude towards him became more and more friendly, but when Ian asked about things related to the mountain god, their expressions changed faster than Ian could turn the pages of a book.
Ian was so scared that he almost took out his Bible and smashed it down.
Fortunately, he restrained himself.
Leon and Ivankov also thought of getting information from the villagers.
However, their progress was not smooth.
Leon wanted to repeat his old trick and tie up a villager for torture, but he didn't find a suitable opportunity.
He wandered about the village like an idler.
Occasionally, he would meet some old people chatting and enjoying the cool breeze under the trees, but they would simply ignore Leon.
After failing to communicate with the villagers, Ivankov chose another approach.
He came to the outside of a house and found a dark place to hide.
Shadow slipped in quietly and hid in the shadows to eavesdrop.
inside the house.
Two old women were chatting. At first they were talking about some family matters, and then they talked about the sacrifice.
Soon, the topic turned to Ivankov.
"Xiao Yuan has grown up and become sensible. I hope there won't be any trouble this time."
"well……"
"Don't you think we've gone too far with this kid? His sister Xiaoyan hasn't had it easy these past few years."
"This isn't something you and I, two old men, can handle. The village chief is always right. The last time we prayed for blessings, it was probably because that kid offended the mountain god."
"Poor kid."
Shadow listened for a while, then slipped out through the crack in the door.
…
at the same time.
Bai Ye came to the village chief's house and kicked the door open.
The village chief's wife came out cursing, and her face changed when she saw Bai Ye.
She looked at Bai Ye suspiciously.
"Xiao Yuan? Did your sister ask you to come here?"
Bai Ye shook his head.
The next second, the door slammed shut...
Bai Ye was disheveled in the wind for a while, then with a dark face, he kicked the door open again.
This time, it was the village chief who came out.
The village chief looked at Bai Ye with complicated eyes, but the next moment his eyes changed.
The village chief looked at Bai Ye lovingly and enthusiastically pulled him in. "Xiao Yuan, come here, there are delicious foods at the village chief's house."
Bai Ye was pulled into the door by him, and the dog followed cautiously behind him.
After entering the house, he saw the old woman and a little boy who was only as tall as his thigh.
Bai Ye looked around and could only say that it was worthy of being the village chief's house. The conditions were really good. The house was fully furnished, and there were even some strange things.
A long wooden table, a wooden washstand, a row of small baskets, a barn as tall as a person, and fine cloth on the bed...
Bai Ye was a little confused. According to his observation, the people in the village were very poor and wore patched coarse linen shirts. Where did the cloth, which was obviously made of a different material, come from in the village chief's house?
Um, there are a few red bellybands in the corner...
Bai Ye withdrew his gaze and the village chief walked over with a roasted sweet potato.
"Xiao Yuan, come and try some freshly baked sweet potatoes."
At this time, the village chief's wife was unhappy and frowned.
"Old man, what are you doing?"
The little boy beside him also howled at the right time and pretended to wipe away his tears.
"Grandpa, isn't this baked for me?"
The old man and the child were arguing with each other. The village chief slapped the eldest son Haoda Sun on the forehead and then frowned at his wife.
"Xiao Yuan's parents died young. As the village chief, what's wrong with me taking care of him? He's ignorant."
After saying that, he pushed his wife and grandson out.
Only the village chief and Bai Ye were left in the house, along with a big yellow dog that was shamelessly biting the red bellyband.
The village chief now looks at Bai Ye as if he is looking at his own grandson.
He wanted to give Bai Ye all the best things, and searched the house for good things.
Bai Ye was hungry, so he sat on a chair and ate roasted sweet potatoes in big mouthfuls.
After he finished eating the sweet potato in his hand, the village chief also dug out a bunch of things.
He took out a big cloth bag and stuffed various things into it. Soon a big bag was full of things.
Bai Ye walked forward and patted the cloth bag.
"For me?"
"Yes, take them all. The village chief has plenty at home." The village chief said with a cheerful smile.
Bai Ye nodded, thinking about the previous question and asked it.
"Village Chief, does the mountain god really exist?"
After he finished speaking, the atmosphere changed noticeably, and the village chief's expression became blank.
"Is there? I don't know..."
The village chief talked to himself for a while, but couldn't make sense for a long time. Bai Ye simply changed the subject and asked him where the exquisite fabrics in his room came from.
The village chief was confused again.
"Where did it come from? I bought it. I don't know where I bought it..."
white night:"……"
Damn, are we restricted by the rules again?
Seeing that the village chief seemed stuck and didn't speak, Bai Ye gave up temporarily.
However, he was also certain that there was indeed something wrong with the village chief. This old guy was indeed dishonest...
