Chapter 993: You are a thief
Xu Cheng walked up to the shore, still dripping wet. Looking at these little kids, he was a little surprised. These kids rarely saw strangers, or rather, they didnât think they had exposed anything. They thought that the people outside would be like them. At this moment, the woman waved at the five children.ââGet up here. Donât talk to strangers.â âAuntie, uncle went into the water to help us carry our things. Heâs all wet.â The oldest twelve-year-old boy was still very polite as he spoke to the woman on the mountainside. The woman finally looked at Xu Cheng and said to him,ââThen come up and cool your clothes.â âLetâs go, uncle. We dug up a lot of things from the fields today for you to eat.â The children wanted to share their results. Xu Cheng looked at the innocent smiles on their faces, and he also unconsciously smiled.ââAlright.â The woman saw Xu Cheng walking up, and she was obviously a little wary, but she didnât want to reject the kindness of the children, so she didnât even treat Xu Cheng well. He didnât mind. This place was probably isolated from the world, and not many outsiders had come here. They were hostile to outsiders, but the children were not. They caught pheasants, eels, and wild fish. It was very sumptuous. Originally, seeing that Xu Chengâs clothes were almost dry, he wanted to ask him to leave, but who knew that these kids would come over with some cooked food for him. When Xu Cheng saw the game, his stomach also started to growl, making the kids laugh out loud. âAuntie, give him some.â The woman had no choice, so she said to Xu Cheng,ââLetâs go down the mountain after eating. â Xu Cheng took the bowl and gnawed on the rice and game. It was very fragrant. The other children formed a circle with him, and the bigger one asked him casually,ââUncle, youâre from outside, right?â Xu Cheng nodded.âYeah, itâs quite far from here. I came here to find a village called Xu Village.â âXu Village?â âThereâs no Xu Village here, but thereâll be a Xu Zhong,âthe youngest one muttered. âThatâs the forbidden area of the village. What are you talking about?âthe older one nudged him. âXu Zhong?â Xu Cheng wondered if that was the Xu Village he was looking for. âIs it also a village?â He quickly asked. âNo.â âItâs a Cemetery,âthe younger child shook his head. Xu Cheng was a little stunned. âYou guys donât belong to the Xu Family Village?â âDo you know a guy called Xu banxian?â he asked curiously. âI donât know.â The children shook their heads. Judging from their expressions, they really werenât lying. They really did look confused. Could it be that father Lin had gotten the name wrong after so long? Perhaps there was no such person as Xu banxian at all? âUncle, if the Xu Village youâre looking for is Xu Zhong âs, youâre an outsider. Donât go, youâll be beaten to death.â The older child said. âIs it the forbidden area of the village?â Xu Cheng asked. The five children nodded their heads one after another, their faces serious. At this moment, the woman walked out of the wooden house and glared at them.ââWhat are you talking about?â The five children shook their heads vigorously. That woman then walked up to Xu Cheng and said,ââWhy do you want to know about the Xu Family Village?â âI guess thereâs some connection. My father used to be a member of the Xu family. Iâm here to find my roots.â The woman didnât take it seriously.âEveryone who comes here will say that theyâre a member of the Xu family. You can leave now. I can see that youâre still injured, so youâre not an ordinary person. However, I donât care who you are. Since youâre willing to help these kids, Iâll give you a piece of advice. Leave this place or youâll die.â This woman was not simple either. She seemed to have seen through Xu Chengâs extraordinary background. âWhy do you all seem to be a little repulsed by outsiders?â Xu Cheng didnât quite understand.âThe outside world is very beautiful. How long has it been since you guys went out to see it?â âReally?â A few children came over and asked curiously,ââThe furthest weâve run is a place thatâs dozens of miles away,â After saying that, the child stuck out his tongue, as if exposing the fact that he had snuck out mischievously. âThereâs nothing wrong with that, right?â Xu Cheng looked at the woman who was a little angry and said,ââDonât the children study?â âThere will be special teachers to teach them. Donât waste your time talking about these things. If you donât leave, you will regret it.â The woman said as she looked at the foot of the mountain. There were already some strong men who had just returned from hunting. There were about 20 young and middle-aged men. As they came over, other women came out of the houses in the village one after another. At this moment, the women finally noticed Xu Cheng, who was dressed up in a strange way. âAn outsider?â They were both shocked and their expressions changed slightly. The way Xu Cheng looked at them was as if he was an uninvited guest who had barged into their territory and was not welcomed. At the foot of the mountain, a man wearing a real tiger skin spotted Xu Cheng with his sharp eyes, and he suddenly ran up. His speed was so fast that Xu Cheng immediately thought he was a master. Also, seeing that he was not panting or tired, it meant that he was also a master of Qi manipulation! It was similar to the group of Imperial Guards. He rushed in front of Xu Cheng, and without a word, he tried to grab Xu Chengâs arm. Although Xu Cheng didnât have any genetic abilities, including that abnormal strength, he was at least a master with the basics of shadow fist. At least, he had the strength of 3S class, so it wouldnât be bad to fight him. After he dodged it, the man in tiger skin was a little surprised. âListen to me, I donât have any ill intentions. There must be some misunderstanding.â âYou found this place, and youâre capable too. You said youâre not here for Xu Zhong?â âHeâs indeed here to look for the Xu Village,âthe woman said. âXu Zhongâs tomb doesnât lack a corpse like you!â The man in the Tiger hideâs face darkened. Then, he suddenly attacked Xu Cheng in anger. The other villagers told the children to hurry into their houses. After exchanging 50 moves with the man in tiger skin, Xu Cheng saw that he was getting more and more courageous as the battle progressed, and his attacks were getting more and more ruthless. Every move was almost fatal, and Xu Cheng directly forced him back. Then, he waved his hand and said,âI really do have a connection with the Xu family. My surname is Xu. Is there some misunderstanding between you two?â âMisunderstanding?â âIâll take you down first, then weâll see if thereâs any misunderstanding,âthe man sneered. Then, he attacked again, and Xu Cheng lost his patience. Immediately, he didnât hold back and used his shadow fist. A middle-aged man walked out from the crowd and said,ââShadow fist? You thief!â As he said that, he flashed over. Xu Cheng wanted to defend himself, but the middle-aged man took care of his defense in just a few moves. Then, the middle-aged man smacked Xu Cheng in the chest, and Xu Cheng coughed out a mouthful of blood as he fell to the ground. Then, his four limbs were held down by a few people, and he couldnât move at all. âUsing Mizongquan in front of me? Youâre simply brandishing your saber in front of the Lord of Guan!â âTake him to the village chief,â the middle-aged man said scornfully. Xu Cheng was directly carried up to the top of the mountain by the three young men. An old man was sitting in front of a beautiful waterfall on the top of the mountain.
