the beginning of the end

After Yin Yi walked away, the village chief Xia Xuansheng was helped to walk in front of Mu Qiangguo and Shen Xi, and said gratefully: "Qiangguo, you two have saved the whole village, uncle doesn't know what to do. Thank you, Xia Hong's baby is injured now, and I don't know when it will get better, Xia Hong is a good baby, I am sorry for him—"

"I'm old, I'm old, I can't help you anymore."

"Now that people's hearts have changed, it's even more chilling than those mutated animals."

"In this world, I don't know how long I can live with this old bone."

Just as Mu Qiangguo was about to speak, Shen Xi pulled him, but Mu Qiangguo took back what he had said.

The village head's shrewd eyes immediately focused on Shen Xi.

Shen Xi said indifferently: "Village chief, I think it's time to gather people from the village to hold a meeting. No matter if they are from the village or people from outside, they must attend to discuss the safety of the village. Now people from outside There are more and more people, and everyone doesn't know their details, whether they are good people or bad people, so they must send someone to watch outside the village, no matter the road or the path that can enter the village, two strong men will be left to guard every day in the future. If there is any danger, it is better to come in and inform the people in the village in advance, so that everyone can be prepared when the time comes."

"Okay, okay, okay. I'll do it now, I'll do it now." The village head Xia Xuanyuan felt that this proposal was really a top priority. Leave a sentence, turn around and call people.

Xia Xuansheng's prestige was still very high, and he quickly settled the matter. People in and out of the village gathered together and stood together.Mu Qiangguo and Shen Xi also stayed as representatives of the Mu family.

Xia Xuansheng stood on the top and told what Shen Xi said, and the crowd exploded immediately.

"Village Chief, it's so dangerous outside, what if mutant animals come?" A cowardly and cowardly person objected in a weak voice, and as soon as he said it, many people actually echoed him.

"If you sit at home and no one is watching it, it will be dangerous and everyone will not know it. Isn't that even more dangerous." Another voice sounded, and the sensible people present nodded.

The two factions immediately started arguing. Xia Xuansheng looked at the turmoil below, and shouted majestically, "Stop arguing."

The crowd fell silent immediately.

Xia Xuansheng then shouted: "If you don't want to participate, please move out of Bazi Village."

This threat played a decisive role. All of a sudden, the crowd was completely quiet, and those who disagreed did not dare to speak out against it. After all, compared with the outside, the inside of the village is indeed much safer.

In the end, this matter was decided as such. As for who would go to the village outside the village to take turns to guard first, the village head and a representative named Ma Wei sent by the village head and outsiders would arrange it.

The safety issue in the village was temporarily resolved, so Shen Xi dragged Mu Qiangguo home.

"I don't know how long the village will be peaceful this time?" Mu Qiangguo couldn't help but sigh.

Shen Xi held his hand and squeezed it, comforting him: "It will be fine, at least the current situation is much better than when we were in the city."

Mu Qiangguo nodded, thought for a while, and then said: "Everyone in the village now knows that we are supernatural beings, and they will definitely come to ask for help in the future."

Of course Shen Xi knew, he understood from the attitude of the village chief to Mu Qiangguo just now, after all, their family will continue to live in Bazi Village, and they will certainly contribute to issues related to the safety of the village, as for the others-.

Shen Xi pondered for a moment, then said very calmly: "If you want to help, you can help."

In the past, the folks in the village relied too much on and believed in the ability of Xia Hong, a supernatural being, and now they are in a state of chaos and timidity. If it continues, the village will be occupied by outsiders in a short time .

Both of them knew in their hearts that the safety of the village was only superficial, and it would not last long at all. The most deadly crisis was that the food and water problems could not be solved. The way of planting farms was completely impossible now. The sun was too hot, the weather was too hot, and the fields were dry. People are short of water to drink, how can there be extra water to irrigate the land.

If the weather continues to be so hot, people who are short of food will have only one way to choose, and that is to hunt mutant animals for food.

Mu Qiangguo and Shen Xi walked and chatted all the way, talking about things in the village about the future, and they hadn't stepped through the door when they got home.

"Brother Shen, Brother Mu, you are back." Shen Zhi surrounded them as soon as he saw them. all out.

Faced with the curious eyes of several people, Mu Qiangguo had no choice but to tell the story of what happened outside just now.Shen Zhi listened to a few dry words with gusto, and in the end he didn't forget to complain that he didn't see the situation with his own eyes. If he was there, he would definitely be able to—.

"You're the one who talks a lot." Mo Cheng rolled his eyes and interrupted him, and Shen Zhi was too honest to talk endlessly.

The old lady Mu didn't say anything after listening, and went back to the kitchen silently to continue cooking. Mu Jianguo hugged his sleeping daughter Yaya and didn't say a word. He didn't have much sense of belonging to the village at first. In order to protect the village, no one stood up to speak out and help when there was a crisis. Although he also sympathized with the villagers' actions, if it was him at the time, he would not be able to say what choice he would make when his life was threatened. .

Sometimes human nature is so selfish and timid, even if we help, we are afraid to help.

As for Mu Xibao, he didn't know what his father was talking about. He squatted on the ground and played obediently. The pet kitten squatting on his shoulder didn't know if he understood it, but he kept screaming "meow, meow" .

After a while, Mo Cheng asked cautiously: "Brother Mu, have those two supernatural beings really left the village?"

"I haven't left outside the village." When Mu Qiangguo was about to get home, he had already checked with his spiritual sense. Although Yin Yi's car had exited the village, it did not leave.

In addition, Mu Qiangguo and Shen Xi accidentally discovered a strange thing. The superhuman named Gangzi was alive and kicking, without any injuries on his body.

Shen Xi analyzed it and guessed it might be related to Yin Yi's ability.

"It doesn't matter whether he leaves or not, as long as he keeps himself safe, we don't care about him now." Shen Xi suddenly said indifferently.

"Yeah." Mo Cheng nodded and didn't ask any more questions. He believed in the two people's decision on how to deal with this matter.
