Rising Xianxia World

Chapter 33 Overnight
Outside the village, there is a wall made of yellow mud, about three or four meters high.

On the fence, there is a sentry post every five meters, with a burning torch, and a young man with a bow and arrow stands on the sentry post.

When Gu Qiubai walked to the village, the young man on the sentry immediately raised his bow and arrow and aimed at Gu Qiubai: "Stop, who are you?"

"Hi, I'm just a passer-by. I want to stay here for one night. Is it convenient?" Gu Qiubai said without hesitation.

He has already discovered that the young man on the sentry post is just an ordinary person, and he can handle it with one finger.

In Haoran Country, although Taoism is prevalent and almost everyone knows it, not everyone can practice Taoism.

Qualified people are almost one in a thousand, and among these one thousand people, I am afraid that there is no one with good qualifications, and they can only wander in the Qi refining stage for the rest of their lives.

In such a small village, it is not bad to find a cultivator, let alone the foundation building stage. With Gu Qiubai's cultivation, I am afraid that he can handle the entire village with one hand.

Of course, Gu Qiubai will not be idle and use his strength. If he is not allowed to enter the village, at worst he can find a place nearby to sleep for a night.

The young man on the sentry post looked at Gu Qiubai, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Wait a minute."

The young man got off the sentry post, opened the door on the wall, walked over, and said, "Come in."

Gu Qiubai nodded, and followed behind the young man. Of course, with the previous experience of village sacrifices in the real world, Gu Qiubai was still very cautious and did not relax.

"You look like a scholar, why did you come to our remote place?"

Naturally, Gu Qiubai would not say that he was going to the Ten Thousand Demon Sect, after all, people in the Demonic Way do not have a good impression among ordinary people.

He had already prepared another speech, and said immediately: "I wanted to go to Lou County to do something, but I was delayed on the way to participate in the Qingfeng Poetry Meeting. I wanted to take a shortcut, but I miscalculated the time, and I came here by accident , I'm really ashamed."

The young man smiled honestly: "It's nothing, there are often lost travelers who come to our corner."

The two walked around the wooden houses, and it didn't take long to reach the center of the village. At this time, groups of villagers were dancing around the bonfire.

Beside the bonfire, there were five or six iron racks, on which golden and oily animal meat was grilled, while a group of strong men were drinking and chatting.

"Today is our village's once-a-month carnival. On this day, people in the village will put down what they are doing, have a carnival day, be grateful for the harvest, and pray for a smooth and safe next month." with a happy smile.

Gu Qiubai nodded, the world is full of ferocious beasts, especially in this kind of [-] mountains, the life of ordinary people is even more difficult.

In a small village like this that lives on hunting, the villagers who go out to hunt will be attacked by ferocious beasts from time to time, and they may die or be injured. It is already a very happy thing to be alive.

"You wait here first, I'll go and inform the clan elders to arrange accommodation for you."

The young man left and walked towards a slightly larger wooden house in front of him. Not long after, an old man with white beard and hair came out of the wooden house with a hunched back.

The old man raised his head, looked in Gu Qiubai's direction with his cloudy eyes, his expression changed suddenly, and he walked over quickly leaning on a cane: "I don't know that the Great Immortal has come to this place, but the old man has not been able to meet him far away, and I hope the Great Immortal will forgive me."

"It's okay, I'm taking the liberty to disturb you this time." Gu Qiubai waved his hand.

He didn't deliberately hide his cultivation, showing a little bit of strength can dispel some unruly intentions.

Gu Qiubai also found out that the clan in front of him is always a cultivator, but his cultivation is only at the third level of Qi Refining, which is pitifully low.

"Where is the Great Immortal, Gouwa doesn't know how to be polite, and I hope the Great Immortal will not blame him for being rude." The old man said fearfully.

He had just quietly investigated Gu Qiubai, but found that his realm was much higher than him, and he couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.

If a cultivator of this kind of cultivation gets angry, their village will be destroyed.

"You don't have to be like this, I just want to stay here for a night, and I will leave early tomorrow morning. Please help me arrange a place." Gu Qiubai said.

"Naturally, naturally." The old man nodded again and again, "This old man will let someone tidy up the house, but the decoration in our village is simple, I hope Daxian doesn't mind."

"It's enough to have a place to live, and other old people don't have to worry too much."

"Then please wait for a while, the old man will make arrangements." The old man bowed, "If you don't mind, you can come in and have a glass of wine."

"No, I'll just stay here."

Gu Qiubai looked at the boys and girls who were singing and dancing in front of him, with a smile in his eyes. It is also good to appreciate the exotic atmosphere at this time.

"Then..." The old man hesitated, and then looked at the young man beside him, "God boy, you are responsible for accompanying the immortal. Remember, you must not neglect it. If you have any orders from the immortal, you must do it as soon as possible."

"Well, remember!" The young man nodded.

After the old man left, Gouwa scratched his head, and said nervously: "That, that, Da, Daxian, if I said something wrong just now, you must not mind."

Gu Qiubai waved his hand: "Okay, there is no need to talk about a big fairy, my name is Gu Qiubai, you can call me Big Brother Gu or Mr. Gu."

Gouwa struggled for a long time before opening his mouth intermittently: "Gu, Gu... Great Immortal."

"..."

Gu Qiubai laughed dumbfounded, and stopped talking too much. After all, there is a gap in realm before these ordinary people.

He thought for a while, looked at the bonfire in front of him and said, "Since I'm staying here, I can't come empty-handed, so I'll give you a gift."

He waved his hand, and a marten with brown spots appeared on the ground. It was the lightning marten hunted in the jungle.

Gouwa was startled when he saw an animal appear with a wave of Gu Qiubai's hand, and then moved his eyes down to look at the mink on the ground, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Although he has only one animal, he has been hunting for five or six years, and he has killed hundreds of beasts, but in his memory, there seems to be no beast that can compare with the one in front of him.

The mink's fur is shiny, and there seems to be a trace of luster flowing between the brown spots, like lightning bolts, full of mystery.

Although Gouwa is simple and honest, he is not an ignorant person. Knowing the preciousness of this mink, he quickly shook his head and said: "No, no, how can we accept things from the Great Immortal? If the clan elders know about it, they must be blamed."

Gu Qiubai's face was serious, and he said: "I'll take it for you. If I don't pick it up, I will be angry. Go quickly and roast this mink. Its meat is very helpful to you."

The meat of the Lightning Mink contains active energy. After eating it, there may be a chance of gaining some of the Lightning Mink's abilities, which greatly increases one's own speed.

"Okay, okay, I'll go now."

Gouwa happily held the mink on the ground, skillfully cut off the outer fur, then set up a shelf, and put it on the fire to roast.

Not long after, the clan elder returned and brought Gu Qiubai to a somewhat luxurious wooden house.

In the center of the wooden house, a brazier was set up on a wooden frame to keep warm, and the whole wooden house was covered with animal skins.

On the table, there are all kinds of delicacies. It can be seen that some thought has been put into this arrangement.

Gu Qiubai did not refuse either, and the Lightning Sable he gave was enough to cover the accommodation expenses this time.

"Daxian, this is the granddaughter of the old man, Xiaoya. She will serve you tonight. If you need anything, just tell me." The old man said, standing beside a delicate girl.
