Chapter 249: The King’s Little Fool (I)



The paradise here may not be a real paradise, at least, in Long Moshun's opinion.

The people here all looked leisurely and comfortable. Men farmed and women weaved, there were lazy old people and naughty children. Even here, if there was no laughter coming out, Long Moshun had no way to connect it with the same village.

Behind their seemingly lazy pace, they are actually wary of outsiders.

Even if they tried to conceal it, the hostility in their eyes could not be hidden.

Long Moxun looked at the old man who was walking towards them slowly with a cane, his eyes slightly narrowed, and there was a flash of strange emotions in his cold eyes.

"Everyone, you are welcome to come from afar. I am the village chief. I welcome you all."

Long Moxun glanced at the old man, his eyes dark and unclear, and secretly grabbed Luo Xuening's hand, with a faint smile on his lips: "Hello, Village Chief, we accidentally broke into this place, goodbye."

When Long Mosun was young, he had heard his mother talk about some of the peculiarities of the Ling people. Among them, she had emphasized that her hometown was a paradise with colorful flowers and green willows, like a fairyland. Now it seems that this is the paradise on earth that his mother talked about, but it seems that they are not welcome here.

Long Moshun took Luo Xuening's hand and pretended to leave. He wanted to see what these people were trying to do. If they just let them leave, it would at least show that they didn't want to harm them, but were just wary of outsiders. However, the old village chief stopped them.

"Wait, everyone. It's getting late now. If you walk at night, you might run into wild beasts. If you don't mind, just stay here for one night. Tomorrow morning, I'll send someone to take you out. You can rest for a while."

What he said was out of consideration for others. If Long Moshun and others had accidentally stumbled into this place, they might have really believed his words and thought that this place that looked like a paradise on earth did not exist at all and was full of darkness and cruelty.

Long Moxun glanced at the old village chief meaningfully and said cheerfully, "Okay."

The old village chief's eyes were filled with a kind smile. He looked at them as if he were a younger generation. After a while, he stroked his gray beard and said, "No one has come to our village for a long time. It's a rare occasion for you to come. Today, I will have someone set up a banquet at the entrance of the village to entertain you. In addition, I will have someone clean up the house at the entrance of the village so that you can rest for a while."

Long Moxun nodded slowly. The old village chief was very thoughtful, so thoughtful that he had no choice but to say no.

Randomly, someone led everyone to a place to rest. This was a house, which was very clean. Just like other houses outside, it was clean and comfortable, and would not make people feel uncomfortable.

Outside the house, a group of children and women had gathered to watch the fun. It seemed that they rarely saw outsiders, and each of them showed great enthusiasm.

If it's just one or two people, that's still fine, but if the whole village shows great enthusiasm towards a few outsiders, then what is behind this enthusiasm is really worth pondering.

After being surrounded by spectators, the secret guards and Luo Xuening finally believed from the bottom of their hearts what Long Moshun said, that the people here were very dangerous.

As night fell, the welcoming banquet at the entrance of the village was finally set up, and the old village chief came in person to welcome Long Moxun and others.

Since the old village chief came in person to pick them up, there was no reason for everyone not to go.

When the dinner started, the old village chief was still smiling, and the villagers sitting outside were also smiling. The atmosphere was very harmonious and enjoyable.

They did not make the first move, and Long Mosun naturally had no intention of exposing them. He just followed suit and drank and ate. However, he accepted all the toasts but did not really drink them. In such a dangerous place, he did not dare to drink too much.

After three rounds of drinking, the old village chief's wrinkled face was slightly drunk: "I wonder what important matter has brought you to this remote place like ours?"

It was a statement, not a rhetorical question; it was obvious that the old village chief no longer intended to hide his hostility.

Long Moxun raised his eyebrows, with a hint of mockery in his eyes: "We are just passing by here."

"Where are you going?"

"I'm doing business. I passed by here just to explore the way."

Long Moxun lied seriously, and although he was a good liar, Village Chief Yu and the people in the village did not believe him.

"Really?"

The old village chief's eyes were tightly locked, and hostility had already spread unknowingly in his eyes: "Then why did you destroy our village protection mountain?"

Hucunshan is the mountain that collapsed before. It turns out that the mountain really has a different meaning for their village.

Long Moxun had already sensed the murderous intent in the old village chief's eyes, but he still said slowly: "We didn't. We found a member of your tribe to lead the way. He destroyed the cave's mechanism himself, so it has nothing to do with us."

"snort."

The old village chief was irritated by these remarks. With a "bang", he angrily dropped the cup in his hand and looked at Long Moshun with glaring eyes.

"None of your business. What you said sounds nice. If you hadn't insisted on entering the mountain, our people would never have to use blood to trigger the authorities and kill people to pay for their lives. Today, I will seek justice for our people."

As he spoke, the old village chief had already stood up. He didn't need any support at all. His previous weakness was just a pretense.

"Come here, capture them for me. If they dare to resist, kill them."

From the very beginning, they had no intention of letting this group of people leave here alive, but what they cared more about was the purpose of their coming here.

Their people have been hiding in this secret mountain village for hundreds of years, and they will never allow anyone to disrupt their peace.

After the old village chief finished speaking, the villagers who had been sitting at the table, drinking, chatting and laughing, now put down their glasses and stood up from their seats.

They had already hidden their weapons under their seats, waiting for the old village chief's order. They drew their weapons from their seats, and one by one, they looked at the prey in front of them with a fierce look.

"I originally thought that you were warm and hospitable, but now it seems that you are really scheming. Since you didn't intend to let us get out alive from the beginning, what's the point of pretending? It's just to add to the jokes."

Long Moxun looked at the group of villagers brandishing guns and sticks, and the mockery in his stern eyes deepened.

He looked down upon them coldly, not at all timid because of the crowds, but with a look of determination in his eyes.

"A joke. I think you're going to become a joke here soon."

The old village chief snorted coldly, with a fierce smile in his old eyes; "I have already put drugs in your wine. As long as you make a move, your internal energy will be mobilized and spread throughout your body. The consequence is that all your martial arts will be wasted. So, be good and surrender. You can't escape."

Long Mosun also sneered, with even more contempt in his eyes. As a prince, he had enough assets to be proud of. Just a slight glance was enough to make people feel awe.

"It's a pity that we didn't drink your wine. Your dirty tricks are useless when used on us."

The old village chief's expression changed slightly, but on his face, he just tilted the corners of his mouth upwards, revealing a scornful smile.

"It doesn't matter if you haven't drunk anything. Anyway, you can't escape today. Come on."

The villagers rushed forward and surrounded Long Moxun and his group, with fierce gleams in their eyes.

The two groups of people soon began fighting fiercely.

Luo Xue Ning was placed aside. She was the weakest here. If she made a move, she would easily be used as a rake. Therefore, Long Moshun instructed Luo Xue Ning to try not to take action so that those people would not be able to figure out Luo Xue Ning's strength.

However, no matter how good the plan was, it could not keep up with the changes. The villagers were beaten without any ability to fight back, and they couldn't help but feel a little more wary of this group of people. Naturally, they set their target on Luo Xuening.

The villagers' long swords stabbed at Luo Xuening, and Luo Xuening had no choice but to fight back. She dodged the attacks of the long swords with her petite body and fought with the villagers. After a few moves, Luo Xuening's holding back strength allowed the villagers to find a breakthrough.

They saw the important position of Luo Xuening in this group of people, and their cunning eyes turned: "Quick, catch that woman."

As soon as she finished speaking, Luo Xuening only felt that she was surrounded. The villagers, one by one, attacked her in groups, and she was among them and was soon surrounded.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Long Moxun pulled himself out and fought side by side with Luo Xuening.

The two sides were fighting fiercely, and Luo Xue Ning was inevitably injured. Long Mosun's distressed mood instantly turned into anger. When the Mysterious Ming Palm came out, those who surrounded him retreated.

The old village chief's eyes widened at this bizarre move, and he pointed his finger at Long Moxun with trembling fear in his eyes.

"You, who are you?"
