The wounds on the girl's body have been simply bandaged, and her face looks very pale, but her eyes are still bright, which is completely different from the other people around her.
"Although fellow Daoist help us fight off these beasts, there is no guarantee that new monsters will not attack again. Brother Green Ox, lead everyone to repair the village gate and collect the corpses outside. Aunt Yu, together with Aunt Luo, use the meat of those giant birds to make meals for everyone. We haven't eaten meat for a long time, and the rest will be pickled." The girl turned her head and said.
"Okay." The dark-skinned man who asked the question before responded neatly.
"Ying Luo, don't worry, leave it to us." Two women in their thirties and forties wiped their faces and said quickly.
Shen Luo Seeing that this woman was obviously seriously injured, the smile on her face did not diminish. It was obviously not a forced smile, but a sincere smile from the heart. It looked quite bright and moving, and it made people feel refreshed.
Under her influence, the villagers stopped crying quickly and dispersed one after another to help clean up the messy village.
"Fellow Daoist, please come with me." Ying Luo then turned around and said crisply to Shen Luo.
Shen Luo nodded slightly, followed the girl, and walked slowly through the crowd.
"You are really a god on Fangcun Mountain. Why did you come now? Why did you wait until my husband and son were dead before you came?" When they came to the front, a haggard-looking middle-aged woman leaning against the door suddenly spoke and asked in a questioning tone.
Shen Luo stopped walking and subconsciously wanted to speak out to clarify, but saw Ying Luo wink secretly at him and swallowed the words on his lips.
"Of course fellow Daoist came here from Fangcun, otherwise how could he save us in such a critical moment?" Ying Luo looked at the middle-aged woman and said.
"He is really the god of Fangcun Mountain..." When everyone heard this, someone immediately shouted loudly.
"It's great, it's really a fairy on Fangcun Mountain..."
"There's hope now!"
Others also became happy.
Shen Luo frowned slightly, feeling a little strange in his heart. Is he a Fangcun Mountain monk? What difference does it make to these people?
At this time, he suddenly noticed a cold gaze, and quickly looked inside the village gate, and saw the white-haired old woman who had risked her life to protect the children standing inside, staring at him with an indifferent expression, as if she didn't have the same joyful expression as others.
Beside him were a dozen eight or nine-year-old children, all of whom timidly poked their heads and looked at Shen Luo.
The old woman's eyes were sunken and her eyes were dark, which made Shen Luo feel uncomfortable all over.
Ying Ruo also noticed Shen Luo's gaze, and also looked towards the village gate. Then Shen Luo saw the old woman's gaze lingering on Ying Luo for a moment, as if they exchanged some glances, and left with the children without saying a word.
Shen Luo then followed Ying Luo through the village gate and entered the village, suddenly feeling desolate.
The houses in the village are dense and scattered. Most of the houses near the village gate have collapsed. The broken earth walls piled together are covered with black moss. Traces of white paper pasted on the windows can be seen on the broken window edges.
A gust of wind blew by, kicking up dust all over the ground, and the few fluffy grasses left on the roof flew up into the air.
Shen Luo waved his hand, shooing away the smoke and dust floating in front of him, and followed Ying Luo towards the village.
Ying Luo remained silent, and Shen Luo found it difficult to speak. He glanced around and looked at the entire village.
Along the way, there were few trees and green plants on the roadside. Most of the trees we saw were dead elm and willow trees. The bark had been peeled off, leaving only the bare trunks and twisted branches standing aside.
After the "bustling" at the entrance of the village just now, the village fell into silence again, with only the low sound of wind and intermittent sobs coming from nowhere. The atmosphere was very depressing.
The two of them walked around a collapsed house and were about to continue walking forward when Shen Luo suddenly frowned and looked behind them, only to see a thin, short figure hiding aside in a hurry.
"Chen Guanbao." Ying Luo also noticed someone was following him and called out.
Then, a little boy wearing a shabby green cloth shirt walked over with a somewhat reserved expression.
Shen Luo was somewhat impressed by the handsome boy in front of him. He seemed to be standing next to the old woman before.
"Sister Ying." The handsome boy hid his hands behind his back, walked up to Ying Luo, and called out in a low voice.
"Chen Guanbao, what are you doing here?" Ying Luo asked softly.
Hearing this, the handsome boy raised his head and looked at Shen Luo. He paused slightly, as if to encourage himself, and then said to Shen Luo, "Brother Fairy, can you teach me to learn spells? I also want to fight monsters and defend the village like Sister Ying!"
Shen Luo was a little moved when he heard this, and looked at Chen Guanbao's face again.
He found that the boy looked thin, but his eyes were firm, and there was a light in his eyes that many adults in the village did not have.
It's just this question that Shen Luo can't answer. He has no intention of staying here.
Ying Luo seemed to notice Shen Luo's hesitation, raised his hand and rubbed the boy's head, smiling:
"Sister knows that Chen Guanbao is very brave, but you are too young to learn spells now. You can wait until Chen Guanbao grows up."
"Sister Ying, I'm not young anymore. When the monsters came earlier, I still protected Tian Niu and the others." Chen Guanbao puffed up his chest and said loudly.
"Okay, okay, Chen Guanbao has grown up. But my sister and the fairy brother still have something to say. You go back first. Granny Ma won't be able to find you in a while. It's time to curse." Ying Luo said with a smile.
Chen Guanbao After hearing what she said, he immediately shrank his neck and turned around to go back.
But soon, he turned around again, took out a wrinkled wild fruit from behind, and handed it over.
Shen Luo was a little surprised when he saw this.
Because the direction the wild fruit was handed to was not Ying Luo, but him.
"Is it for me?" Shen Luo asked.
"Thank you, the immortal brother, for saving Sister Ying and saving us." Chen Guanbao nodded heavily.
Shen Luo took the wild fruit, and Chen Guanbao turned around and ran away quickly.
Looking at that little figure, he felt his heart warm for some reason, and there was a smile on his face.
Ying Luo saw it in his eyes, his eyebrows moved slightly, then he glanced at Shen Luo, then turned around and continued walking forward.
Shen Luo stuffed the wild fruit into his arms and followed.
She led Shen Luo for another distance and finally entered a bamboo house.
"Who is Daoist Fellow Daoist? Why did you suddenly appear in our Longevity Village?" As soon as he entered the house, Ying Luo closed the door and suddenly asked Shen Luo with a solemn expression.
"Didn't you tell the villagers that I am an immortal cultivator from Fangcun Mountain?" Shen Luo raised his eyebrows slightly and said with some displeasure.
"Fellow Daoist has been kind to me. I shouldn't be so rude. It's just that the current situation is special, so please don't hide it." Ying Luo said with a hint of apology as a complex look flashed in his eyes.
