Players please close your eyes

Chapter 291 291. You are already surrounded by me alone

Just as the old man was about to stand up, he was stopped by the child opposite.

"Hey, the chess game isn't over yet."

The child showed no respect for the old man at all. Instead, he took the chess pieces and hit the chessboard carved from stone.

The old man looked troubled.

"I'll try."

Qiao Mu immediately asked the old man to stand up and sat opposite the child.

This game is similar to Go, except that each player holds two colors of chess pieces, and the moves are staggered, making it more complicated.

In Qiao Mu's sight, red words quickly appeared, giving guidance to Qiao Mu.

[Go here, you are right to listen to me, enjoy the feeling of cheating! 】

Three times, five times and two times, Qiao Mu won.

After all, he was like driving an Alpha dog and playing Go with the old man at the gate of the community. He was a real dog, and there was no way the kid could be his opponent.

"Tsk."

The child was reluctant, but his skills were inferior to others, so he had no choice but to let Qiao Mu take the old man away.

The three of them passed through the village entrance, and Qiao Mu glanced at the residents.

[Don't provoke him. Although this guy seems to be responsible, once you provoke him, you have to watch your head when you sleep at night! 】

[She is very good at cooking. Unfortunately, due to the limitations of the ingredients, you'd better pay attention to whether the food is still moving when eating! 】

[Although he looks only eight years old, he is actually far wiser than his peers. Chat with him and you might be able to grasp the history of this village! 】

[You think he is a fool, but he thinks you are the fool. Sometimes living in a world like this, being stupid will make you happier! 】

[She has ten thousand thoughts in her heart. You will get nothing by communicating with her. Ignore her chatting. Don’t waver, brother! 】

It seems that these villagers are crouching tigers, hidden dragons.

Fortunately, there shouldn't be any descendants of the Eighteen-Road Tan Kick, the Hong Family's Iron Fist, or the Wulang Bagua Stick.

"Something's wrong."

Qianyun walked beside Qiao Mu and whispered.

"What's wrong again?"

Qiao Mu felt that there was nothing special about this village, and she didn't know what Qianyun thought was wrong.

Of course, he didn't think Qianyun was overthinking it. After all, this was Penglai, and many things that Qiao Mu thought were common sense might be weird here.

"The plants growing in the fields here and the weeds on the roadside are so peaceful."

Qian Yun muttered to himself.

"This is outside the Great Wall, a place where strange beasts breed. Plants and other animals are immortal for thousands of years. Unless there are some more powerful beings that scare them, we will be attacked just walking on the road. ”

Qiao Mu thought of the "ants" he met when he first arrived in a foreign land.

When small bugs can live tens of thousands of years and reproduce indefinitely, this place looks "normal", but in fact it is the biggest abnormality.

"It seems so."

Qiao Mu nodded.

"The biggest problem is that there are too few people here."

Qianyun followed the old man and came to a house in the center of the village.

"The village chief should be at home."

The old man said something, and Qiao Mu thanked him and asked him to go back and continue playing chess.

Qiao Mu and Qianyun looked at each other, then stepped forward and knocked on the door.

"Please come in."

A slightly cold female voice came from the door.

Qiao Mu pushed the door open and saw a woman in simple ancient clothes sitting at the table. She had knitting tools in her hands and seemed to be knitting new clothes.

What surprised him was that the village chief was probably under thirty years old, very young.

"Are you the village chief?"

Qianyun asked.

"Hello, you can call me Jianjia."

The village chief introduced himself.

"I am."

Qian Yun was just about to speak when she was stopped by Qiao Mu.

He knew with his knees that Qianyun was going to take out his identity certificate and give the chief of Suiming Village a little shock.

This approach should not be a problem under ordinary circumstances. After all, the death inquisitors have great authority and have some extraordinary abilities. They usually deal with the old, weak, sick and disabled who have lived long enough. To use Qiao Mu's words as an example, they are police comrades. Go visit a community with harmonious neighbors.

But now they are in Suiming Village. It is obvious that a small policeman walked into the gangster's lair. When he saw that the people around him were not good, Qianyun took out his ID and told everyone that you have been surrounded by me alone. , no matter whether you resist or not, you will die.

If the person on the other side doesn't show you any strength, then that would be considered an underestimation.

It is better not to reveal your identity before you understand the situation clearly.

"Our ancestors have been to Suiming Village before, and this time they came to repay their kindness."

Qiao Mu immediately started to lie and told the village chief Jianjia the same story he had told the old man.

After hearing this, the village chief Jian Jia didn't have any doubts about what Qiao Mu said.

"I believe that the people in the village did what they should do at that time. We are also very grateful that you can remember it for so many years."

Jian Jia said and looked out the window again.

"It just so happens that there will be a banquet in the village soon. Since you are here, please attend the banquet together before leaving."

"Have a table to eat, is it so good?"

Qiao Mu couldn't sit still when she heard about the feast.

"banquet?"

Qianyun expressed doubts.

"Yes, someone in the village is going to die soon. We are going to hold a banquet to send him off. This is a big event that may not happen in decades."

Jian Jia replied, with obvious joy on his expression.

"That's really a big deal!"

Qiao Mu applauded.

"You guys wait here for a while and I'll find you a place to stay."

Jianjia said, letting the two of them wait here, and left the house.

Qianyun looked around. There was nothing that looked out of place in the room, they were all ordinary furnishings.

"It smells like Tai Sui."

However, what lingers in the air is a lingering and wonderful fragrance.

"What does Tai Sui taste like?"

Qiao Mu moved his nose like a dog, but he didn't smell any special smell, and there was no bright red text in his field of vision to remind him what was different.

Maybe only Penglai people can smell this special smell, or maybe this smell has no effect on the Chosen One like Qiao Mu.

"No, what exactly is Tai Sui?"

Qiao Mu knew from the description in the Chosen Mall that Tai Sui was probably a plant-like thing that could be eaten, but he had never seen what it looked like.

"I have never seen Tai Sui, because keeping Tai Sui secretly is a serious crime, which is enough to punish a person for eternity and prevent him from reincarnation."

Qianyun replied.

"The reason why I came to Sui Mingcun is because there are traces of Tai Sui in the records of that year."

"Oh? Please elaborate?"

Qiao Mu's mission is to find Tai Sui. Now it seems that this village must contain Tai Sui's secrets. It's time to start a conversation and get more information.

But at this time, Jian Jia came back from outside, bringing with him a girl about sixteen or seventeen years old.
