Start from the old nine gates

Chapter 93 Zhelong Village 1
In a blink of an eye, it is already three days later
Zhelongzhai,
A village named after Zhelong Mountain is located in the deep mountains and dense forests. Except for the people living around, few people know that there is a village here.

chamber,
"No, I don't agree, you absolutely can't take those two outsiders to Worm Valley."

An old man with white hair and beard stared straight, his beard was blown up, and he objected loudly.

"I don't agree either."

"Maybe they came here to dig treasures. This was left to us by our ancestors in the village. How can outsiders be allowed in."

"Patriarch, why don't we just arrest them and ask them where their things are."

Several elders in the clan objected one after another.

"Ha ha."

A middle-aged man with a scar on his face seemed to hear something funny, and a sneer suddenly sounded in the room.

"why are you laughing."

"Why, Xiaolei, do you think what we said is wrong?"

The three pairs looked at Fang Lei in unison, and invisible pressure rushed towards him, as if to force him to change his mind.

"I just think what everyone said is wrong, what's wrong."

Fang Lei stood up abruptly, 1.8 meters tall, with a muscular figure, and a sarcastic expression on his face.

"What are you thinking? Do you really think that the other two will come alone and have nothing to rely on?"

Thinking of that day, the moment he saw Gong Ruomei, the inexplicable chill appeared, and a trace of fear rose in his eyes.

"Do you know what fifty catties of salt and twenty tons of grain mean to us?"

"Your family is not short of food, but it does not mean that other families are not short of food. You must know that an elderly family just starved to death at home a few days ago."

"I don't need to say more about the importance of this."

As the best hunter in the village, his hands were stained with the blood of wild beasts. His calm, unwavering gaze, as if looking at the prey, made He Lao, who was shouting against him, feel a chill in his heart.

As Fang Lei said, he scanned the other two people except He Lao, and finally looked at the patriarch sitting on the main seat, waiting to make a decision.

"Anyway, I just don't agree."

"All right."

"You guys are all in charge of the village, so it's not appropriate to make such a noise."

The aura developed by the patriarch over the past ten years, once he opened his mouth, he suppressed the people in front of him, and the room fell silent instantly.

Grain is very important; salt is very important.

Unlike after the victory of the revolution, roads connected many villages.

At this time, grain and salt are extremely precious things.

At least people will no longer starve to death in the villages.

For a village like theirs, which relies on mountains to eat mountains and water to drink water, sometimes it is good, and food can be eaten for several days; if it is not good, there may be no food for several days.

There are too many uncertainties. If a large amount of spare food can be obtained, this unfavorable factor will be minimized.

"I've already thought about this matter." Knocking on the bong in his hand, the patriarch sitting on the main seat looked around at the four people in front of him, and said slowly: "In exchange for food and salt, the way to enter the insect valley ,acceptable."

"Patriarch, it is absolutely impossible at this time."

Before the words fell, Mr. He jumped out and objected loudly.

"Old He, I know what you mean." The patriarch took a deep breath of cigarettes, exhaled lightly, and said, "However, so what if we let them in."

"After all, we're just sending them in, not necessarily guaranteeing they'll come out."

Insect Valley, a forbidden place in the clan, is an extremely dangerous place.

In the past few generations, I don't know how many people tried to go in to find the treasure, but almost no one who went in was able to come out.

"Patriarch, what do you mean"

The elders sitting on one side seemed to understand the patriarch's thoughts, and Mr. He stopped talking.

"Since that's the case, the matter has been decided."

Seeing that none of the following people were speaking against it, the patriarch directly made the final decision.

"Master, do you think they will really agree?"

A beautiful figure walked into the yard, came to a young man, and asked in a puzzled tone.

"Will do."

Chen Yuan said plainly that on the first day they came, they had already spread the news of the transaction.

Since ancient times, interests have moved people's hearts.

Even if they wanted to refuse, the villagers in those villages would not agree.

It was because Chen Yuan gave too much.

This is a conspiracy, but if the patriarch of Zhelongzhai still wants to stabilize his position, he will never refuse it.

"coming"

A voice interrupted Gong Ruomei who was about to speak.

Within a few minutes, a figure appeared in front of the door, it was the patriarch of Zhelongzhai.

"Mr. Chen."

Chen Yuan nodded and said, "I don't know what the patriarch thinks about my proposal."

"Mr. Chen, after a discussion in the clan, we have agreed to your proposal." Speaking of this, the patriarch pointed out, "However, before going in, you still have to read what you said."

"It's natural, patriarch, don't worry, since it's a deal, you have to keep your word and keep your word." Chen Yuan said with a pun: "And I also prepared a small gift for the patriarch, I hope the patriarch will not reject."

"Little palace."

Hearing this, Gong Ruomei took out a note and handed it to the other party.

"This is where the things are written. Patriarch, you can send someone to check it now. But I also hope to go to the Worm Valley tomorrow."

The patriarch didn't understand what the other party meant, "Mr. Chen, don't worry, I will arrange the departure immediately after confirmation."

He took the note from the other party's hand, and then gave it to a confidant behind him.

Let it go and check it out.

After a while, the other party ran back and whispered something in the patriarch's ear.

Immediately, the patriarch's face burst into a smile, obviously very satisfied with those gifts.

"Mr. Chen, I've been bothering you for a long time, and I won't bother you to rest anymore." The patriarch stood up, said something, then turned and left.

next day
"Mr. Chen, you can go to Worm Valley through the cave in front."

Fang Lei pointed to the front of the river and said.

"The rest of the journey is up to you to go on your own." Saying that, without giving Chen Yuan the slightest chance to speak, he jumped off the bamboo raft and swam to the shore.

Looking at it, Fang Lei didn't turn to leave until he confirmed that the two of them had entered.

"Master, there's something wrong with that person, does he know what's here?"

Gong Ruomei resolutely withdrew from the other party and left, sensing something abnormal.

"Perhaps." Looking away, Chen Yuan said lightly, "However, that doesn't have any effect."

Anyone in Chen Yuan who has seen the Yunnan Insect Valley knows what is in it. The only thing that can arouse Chen Yuan's interest is the so-called immortality.

This is a world with extraordinary power, and Chen Yuan can't predict what kind of changes will happen.

Still, the unknown is the attraction.
