Chapter 249 The ghost village and the merchant family

"Don't listen to this old lady's nonsense! Our family has been running on this road for decades, but we have never met any haunted village!" A gentle and gentle middle-aged man at the next table couldn't help laughing when he heard the old lady's words.

"The old woman didn't talk nonsense! Many people know this!" The old woman was quite angry when she saw the middle-aged man disbelief. "About a year ago, there were several villages nearby, which were destroyed overnight, and all the people inside died. Now, in a turbulent situation, it was not surprising that such a thing happened. What's strange is that one day, many people saw people from one of the villages appear in a nearby town and greet them, as if nothing was happening. Then when someone passed by the neighborhood, they could still see the village from afar. Some even said that they were invited by people in that village. Of course, the people who entered had never come back."

"Ah--" A young woman at the same table with the middle-aged man couldn't help but hold her shoulders with both hands. Obviously, she was scared.

"Okay, it's just a ghost story. Is it so scary?" Another slightly younger man comforted the table. He just listened to the old lady's words as a story.

Shi Miya couldn't help but look at the people at the table.

At this table, there were five people, three men and two women, all wearing expensive clothes.

There was no energy fluctuation on the young men and women, and the other three were only of ordinary level strength.

Seeing that they didn't believe it, the old lady had to shut up her mouth in a boring manner, packed the table and left.

"Shiminye, let's take a detour." As soon as the old lady left, Chihiro whispered in Shiminye's ear.

Her face was not very good, as if she had heard something that scared her, not because of fear, but because of fear.

"Oh, the girl is still a little timid," Shi Minye didn't care, but when he was about to agree to Chihiro's request, the middle-aged man at the next table stood up and sat at their table. "Since you two are going to the Beast King City, why don't you go with us?

Shi Miya didn't say anything, but just stared at the man's face.

He wasn't so stupid that he would easily agree to the invitation from strangers.

"Uncle, why are you going to invite a bastard to go with us? Don't be too unlucky!" As time passed, the young man immediately scolded him in anger when he heard the middle-aged man's words.

"But, young master, it doesn't matter if you have one more person to go along. Besides, we don't have enough staff now. You know that if something goes wrong, it's not easy for us to make a deal." The middle-aged man tried to convince the young man.

"Tsk! That's more reliable than taking a bastard on the road!" said the young man in an unquestionable tone.

"We agree, and my companions don't really want to go that path." Shi Ziye glanced at Qianxun, who was a little lost, and responded tepidly. His words completely dispelled the middle-aged people's idea of ​​wanting them to walk with them.

"There will be a period of time later!" The middle-aged man sighed, then put down a few copper plates on the table and left with the others.

As soon as the five people left, someone at the other table whispered to Shi Miye: "It's a wise decision that you didn't agree to his invitation, little bastard."

It was a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, and he didn't look good. At this time, he held up his chopsticks and stared at him with a wicked smile.

Shi Miyashi didn't mind what others called him, but he was interested in this person's words.

"That family is a well-known business family nearby. The business line from the city opposite the mountain has been around for dozens or hundreds of years. The older generation's head has passed away for a long time. Now it is the young man who hates the mouth. The woman with a somewhat beautiful woman next to her is his fiancée, and the middle-aged man who talks to you is the captain of his caravan guard." At this point, the man stuffed a bite of food into his mouth and swallowed it, and then continued, "Don't look at them as a big family, it is said that they are doing shameful business now. If you have to say who is more upright in their family, it is probably the only captain of this guard."

Although Shi Miye was very curious about what shameful things were, the other party seemed to be unaware of them.

"Now, they are about to continue their journey, but I guess they will be retribution sooner or later. After all, the rumors in the ghost village are not groundless." The man said, pointing not far away.

Following the direction of his finger, Shi Miya could indeed see many horses carrying things.

However, in Shimiya's opinion, these had nothing to do with him. Anyway, he and Chihiro had decided to take a little road to the Beast King City.

Because the road to the next city was quite far, the two of them simply took a night to leave.

There was nothing wrong that night.

However, the next morning, when Miya and Chihiro were about to set off, there was a commotion like crying and robbing the earth from afar.
