Mysterious country

(Starting from today, the update time is determined to be 12 noon, or one chapter around 2 p.m., and one chapter at 6 p.m., or 8 o'clock. If there are three updates next month, I will notify the time. Two chapters together Put it out, the clicks are really bad.)

Because Xia Qi was not sure how to get those three honor points, he had no choice but to go down and take a look first. After all, he had traveled a full day just to get those three honor points.

So even if he knew it would be dangerous to go down, he still had to go down to find out.

There are four thatched cottages in total, and the chimney of each thatched cottage is filled with smoke. Coupled with the aroma of rice, Xia Qi has to suspect that someone is cooking inside.

Xia Qi returned to normal and approached the thatched cottage closest to him step by step.

There was a faint sound coming from the thatched house, and it sounded like someone was chopping bones with a machete.

"Ka... Ka..."

Xia Qi is now very sensitive to any abnormal noise, so he listened with furrowed brows for a while, but soon the chopping sound disappeared, and was replaced by a woman's voice:

"Go and see if your father is back."

"Mom, why don't you go?"

"We have a guest at home. Didn't you see that I'm busy? Go quickly!"

The voices of a woman and a child came from the thatched house. Hearing the woman inside calling the child to come out, Xia Qi subconsciously took two steps back and hid on the other side of the thatched house.

At the same time, a child with a bald head was seen jumping out of the thatched house.

This child's clothes were very ragged and his face looked very dirty. He was a typical dirty child.

After seeing the child come out of the thatched hut, he ran towards the hillside he just came down from. Xia Qi didn't know why, but his body shivered inexplicably.

He no longer paid attention to the child. After all, there were four thatched houses here. While the child's father had not come back and the woman in the house had not come out, he should explore this place as soon as possible.

Xia Qi tiptoed to the thatched cottage next door. Xia Qi carried his body on his back and slowly moved to the window while paying attention to his surroundings.

There was some dim light coming from the window, which showed that there must be someone in the room. However, Xia Qi listened with bated breath for a while, but did not hear the slightest sound. This also made him turn his head in doubt, and quickly He glanced inside.

Then he saw a man standing motionless by the door of the thatched house, apparently peeping at the situation outside.

Judging from his appearance, he must be the same person sent by Hades to carry out the incident.

"No wonder the woman said that there was a guest at home. It turns out that someone has already arrived first, but judging from his sneaky appearance, he probably hasn't obtained the three honor points yet."

Xia Qi thought this in his heart, but he did not alert the enemy, because in his opinion, in this random event, everyone except himself was a potential enemy.

For example, the man sneaking around in the house is a competitor with the same purpose as him.

Xia Qi gradually moved away from the room, but as soon as he left, he saw the man standing by the door peeping outside. Suddenly he turned around with something in mind, but he didn't see anyone there.

"What was that feeling of being spied on just now?"

The man muttered suspiciously, and then cautiously came to the window, but still found nothing.

As for Xia Qi, he had already arrived at another thatched cottage at this time. As soon as he approached, he heard a string of old people's coughs coming from inside.

"Ahem..."

From the sound, the person inside seemed to be seriously ill. Xia Qi stood there and hesitated for a moment, and finally walked over cautiously, revealing one eye and looking into the thatched house just like before.

The thatched cottage was pitch dark without any lights, but he could still clearly see the scene inside. It was a very simple room with only a bed made of stacked rocks or broken wood.

There was a thin old lady lying on it. At this moment, she was curled up and coughing violently.

Xia Qi didn't dare to stay longer, so he came to the window of the last thatched hut. It was still quiet in the thatched hut. Just when Xia Qi wanted to quickly turn his head to the window, suddenly, a series of crawling sounds suddenly came from inside. Passed out.

It sounded like something was crawling slowly in the house.

Xia Qi's scalp was somewhat numb, because who would be a good person crawling on the ground with nothing to do? He covered his mouth and listened breathlessly for a while, then he heard the crawling sound coming from inside getting louder and louder. It seemed that the one was crawling. Something was crawling towards the window where he was.

"Fuck, have I been discovered?"

Xia Tian Qi didn't dare to stay and wanted to leave quickly, but before he could take action, he felt a cold wind blowing by his side.

He was shaken by the cold wind. He subconsciously looked to his side and saw a child standing not far away.

The child was squatting on the ground, his face covered in mud, and he was staring at him without blinking with his head raised.

"Oops!"

Xia Qi didn't expect that the child would come back so quickly, and he didn't expect that his scene of a mantis stalking a cicada and an oriole following behind would be ruined. Even though he was a little annoyed, he still held it back in the end and pretended to smile at the child. The child waved:

"Come on, kids, come over to uncle. There is candy here."

The child looked at Xia Qi blankly and shook his head as if he didn't know what Xia Qi was whispering.

"Fuck, this **** kid."

Xia Tian Qi cursed in his heart, but the smile on his face still remained harmless, and he said:

"Don't you know sugar? It's sweet and tastes much better than shit."

Xia Qi was talking when he heard the child suddenly shouting with a loud voice:

"Mom, there is someone hiding here, and he wants to give me the same thing."

"You damn brat, **** your grandma!"

Hearing the child suddenly shouting, Xia Qi suddenly had tens of thousands of grass-mud horses running wildly in his heart. He wished he could transform into a ghost soldier right now and perform a craniotomy on that damn brat.

However, it was already too late, because after hearing his cry, the child's mother immediately ran out of the thatched hut and came to the child.

The woman's clothes were also very ragged, and her hair was stuck together. Although her face was cleaner than that of the child, it was still stained with mud, as if she had just climbed out of a grave.

"Who are you?"

Although the woman was called over by the child, after seeing Xia Qi, her face did not show much malice.

Xia Qi saw that the woman had no intention of breaking up with him, so he also smiled and said:

"Don't get me wrong, I'm with the guy in the house, we're friends."

Xia Qi didn't know what to say, so he had to use the bastard in the room as a back-up to get rid of this pair of things that might be a mother and son of ghosts.
