章 6: Chapter 6: You ate my meal, so you have to help me now
Chapter 6:
Zhu Tian couldn't help swallowing.
Not to mention here, even at home, you may not be able to eat so many delicious things.
"We promise to do our best to make a delicious meal."
Zhu Tian said, patting his chest.
Lin Chen didn't care, but handed the straw in his hand to Zhu Tian.
"Take this and burn it."
"I think this thing should be quite fire-resistant."
Zhu Tian widened his eyes and looked at the straw in front of him. He remembered the terrifying face of the scarecrow again.
No way, brother, are you really going to burn it?
This is a demon.
They were nearly killed by this thing.
"I, I dare not." Zhu Tian said tremblingly.
"What are you afraid of?"
Lin Chen said: "It's all dead."
"Are you afraid that you are not dead yet?"
He took action directly and tore the scarecrow in his hand a few more times in front of everyone.
Even if he wasn't dead this time, he was really dead.
When the people around saw this scene, they were stunned.
What kind of person is this?
He actually used a terrifying evil spirit as firewood.
Only you would dare to do this in broad daylight, right?
Even the people watching the live broadcast were left speechless. It was truly outrageous.
Zhu Tian stretched out his trembling hands and carefully took the handful of straw.
Holding the straw in his arms, Zhu Tian closed his eyes in despair, looking as if he was ready to die.
Xiaoqing carried the bag and went out to the kitchen to prepare food.
Lin Chen's gaze returned to the village chief.
He asked: "Old village chief, tell me what is the current situation in the village."
"What is harming you?"
This question made the old village chief fall into deep thought.
"what?"
"I don't know either."
"I only know that several villagers have disappeared in the past six months."
The kind where you can't find the person alive or the body if he's dead.
"Someone's missing?"
Lin Chen narrowed his eyes and asked again: "What did they do before they disappeared?"
The old village chief fell into deep thought again.
After a long while, he said, "It's just like usual. I go to work in the fields during the day and go home to sleep at night."
"So what are your opinions and guesses?" Lin Chen said.
The system's task guide has not changed yet.
That said, there is still information to be discovered.
"Everyone in the village said that they were captured by the mountain god because they angered him."
The village chief said cautiously.
"oh?"
Lin Chen immediately said: "Tell me in detail."
"Legend has it that there is a mountain god in the back mountain. He lives in seclusion in a cave and protects this village."
"But if someone disrespects him, it will anger him and bring disaster upon him."
After that, the village chief didn't dare to say anything more.
Lin Chen asked, "Where is the cave?"
There is a cave where the mountain god lives, you must go and see it.
Perhaps, what happened here and the scarecrow that appeared halfway were all related to this so-called mountain god.
"Don't!"
The village chief was horrified and said, "The cave will change its location and we can't find it at all."
"Also, don't go to the back mountain, and don't disturb the mountain god."
"No one who enters the cave can come out alive."
Seeing his serious look, Lin Chen smiled and said, "I see. We won't go. Our lives are more important."
Hearing this, the village chief breathed a sigh of relief.
But in fact, Lin Chen was just perfunctorily answering him.
Not going?
That's impossible, I have to go!
Lin Chen decided to set off tomorrow and go to the back mountain to find out what was going on.
And at this time.
The system's task prompts have also changed.
"Current mission: Enter the cave."
Lin Chen smiled slightly, there was indeed a big problem in the cave.
"People are disappearing in the village one after another, why don't you run away?" Lin Chen asked.
"escape?"
The village chief looked bitter and said, "I don't know if you encountered a thick fog on the way here."
"Every night, our village would be shrouded in thick fog. Anyone who entered the fog would lose their way and then disappear."
"It's not that we don't want to escape, but we can't escape at all."
Lin Chen remembered the thick fog he saw on the road when he first came.
I originally thought that it was just used to block their way.
Unexpectedly, this fog is the cage of Daojia Village.
"Do not worry."
Lin Chen said: "Since we are here, we promise to help you solve this problem."
The village chief looked as if he wanted to say something but hesitated.
Finally, he whispered, "I advise you to leave early."
"This matter is not something you can solve."
Lin Chen immediately smiled and said, "Is there anything I can't solve? Not yet."
The village chief was stunned.
Just at this moment, bursts of fragrance wafted in from outside.
The next second, Zhu Tian came in with food.
"The food is ready."
He said excitedly, "Let's prepare dinner."
Xiaoqing's cooking skills are really good. She made ten delicious dishes with just a bag of ingredients.
Stir-fried beef, stir-fried pork slices with mushrooms, stewed cabbage with tofu, stir-fried sweet potato leaves with garlic...
Each dish exudes an enticing aroma.
"You are a really good cook." Lin Chen praised.
Xiao Qing felt a little embarrassed and lowered her head and said, "That's all I can do."
Although she kept her head down, she couldn't help but smile.
She also knew that her health was not very good.
I originally thought that I was a complete burden in this mission.
But now, she can still cook.
At least it can help everyone.
"Old village chief, try this sweet potato leaf."
Lin Chen smiled and said, "I managed to snatch these sweet potato leaves from a group of strong fighting aunts in the supermarket."
The village chief didn't understand.
But he was indeed hungry now.
It was the first time he had seen such a sumptuous dinner.
It's just that he just took a bite.
Lin Chen immediately asked with a smile: "Village Chief, is it delicious?"
The village chief nodded and said quickly, "It's delicious."
Then I couldn't help but pick up a few more pieces with my chopsticks.
"The village chief."
"Now you've eaten our food too."
"Look, maybe you should do us a favor."
Hearing this, the village chief was stunned.
He felt cheated in his heart.
As the saying goes, one who receives favors shall be grateful, and one who eats food from others shall be grateful. Now that he has eaten Lin Chen's food, he really feels embarrassed to refuse Lin Chen's request.
This young man is really good at hiding things.
"What do you want to do?" asked the village chief.
"Give us some rooms."
Lin Chen said: "We are going to stay here for a few days. Please clean up a few rooms."
"house?"
The village chief breathed a sigh of relief, thinking it was not a big problem.
"There are indeed some empty houses in the village. No one lives there now, so we can give them to you."
"After dinner, I'll take you there."
After dinner.
The old village chief brought Lin Chen to the two houses.
"No one lives in this house now."
"You will live here from now on."
Lin Chen looked up and down at the two houses. One was only one story high, but it was not small, with an area of 67 square meters.
Walk in and take a look.
A bed, a table, and a window.
The same thing happened with the other house.
It's extremely simple.
"That's it?" Lin Chen said, "No one can live here."
