"Old man, can we stay here for one night?"
The old man's beard and hair had turned gray. He raised his hand and touched his beard, then nodded slightly.
"You guys can sleep over there."
He raised his hand and pointed in a direction.
There are indeed a few simple houses over there.
Although it doesn't look like it can shelter them from the wind and rain, it is enough for them to stay for one night.
When Zhang Qihai saw that the old man agreed, he was naturally very happy and put his hands together to express his gratitude.
"Thank you so much, sorry to bother you."
But the old man just raised his hand and waved it gently, then turned around and took the child back to the room.
Zhang Qihai could tell at a glance that there seemed to be a hint of fear in the child's eyes.
Although I don’t know what happened to them before, I think it must not be a good thing.
Chapter 519 Entering Together
He originally wanted to ask, but after thinking about it carefully, he finally held back the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
That's it.
They have just met each other, so it would be a bit inappropriate to ask directly.
"Thank you."
He spoke once more, and then came in front of everyone.
Everyone has been waiting outside for a long time, and they don't know what the situation is inside.
So at this moment, when they saw Zhang Qihai coming out, they were naturally very worried.
Everyone stepped forward and asked.
"How is it? Is there anyone inside?"
"Yeah, can we go in now? It's not good to stay outside all the time."
Seeing everyone so anxious, Zhang Qihai began to explain.
"We can go in. An old man asked us to stay in the house closer to the exit."
After hearing this, everyone's faces finally lit up a little, and they knew that there is always a way out.
So at this moment they all smiled and spoke.
"Great, great!"
"So what are we waiting for? Let's go in quickly!"
At this moment they really didn't want to waste any more time.
In any case, they wanted to go in and rest quickly.
They have just encountered so many things outside, and now they hope to have a good place to rest.
After waiting for them all to go in, I realized that the house here was very simple.
And some of the tableware inside looked like it hadn't been used for a long time.
Not only that, but even the bed seemed to be covered in cobwebs.
After seeing this scene, everyone couldn't help but sigh softly. They didn't expect this place to be so dirty.
This was indeed beyond their imagination.
If there are people here, why is it so dirty?
This caused them to have some doubts in their minds, and they didn't know what was going on.
Several people shook their heads and opened their mouths, but in the end no word came out.
At this moment, Qi Tiezui couldn't help but say something.
"Why are there so many spider webs here?"
He really didn't quite understand.
If there were people living here, there wouldn't be so many spider webs.
Zhang Qihai on the side shrugged helplessly. He didn't know what was going on.
"It's good enough that we have a place to live now, so we should not be picky."
The fat man on the side could only say these words.
Mainly because they had encountered too many setbacks before.
If it were before, he would definitely look down on such a place.
But now he knew he had no other choice.
The people around couldn't help but nodded and spoke.
"Yes, it is already very difficult for us to find a place to live now."
"I also think that we really can't be picky right now."
But Qi Tiezui immediately shook his head. It was obvious that everyone had misunderstood what he meant.
That's not what he meant at all.
The reason why he said such words was simply because he felt it was very strange and wanted to find out the reason.
He shook his head and began to explain again.
“I just think there are a lot of doubts here.”
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qihai finally seemed to have thought of something and nodded immediately.
"Yes, when I first came into contact with them, I also felt that something was wrong with them."
Upon hearing this, some doubts appeared in everyone's eyes, so they all looked in the direction of Zhang Qihai, hoping that Zhang Qihai could still explain things to them properly at this moment.
"What's wrong?"
"Have we entered a den of wolves?"
There was a hint of worry on everyone's face.
At first they didn't think anything was wrong, but as soon as Zhang Qihai said this, they finally realized that something was wrong.
If this is true, then it means that this place is very dangerous.
Seeing that they thought so, Zhang Qihai shook his head slightly.
"Not a few. You think too much."
Everyone looked at each other, but no one knew what Zhang Qihai meant.
Qi Tiezui was very interested in this, so he immediately asked.
"Then tell me what's wrong?"
After Zhang Qihai thought carefully for a moment, he immediately started talking.
"Before this, I thought someone must have lived here for a long time, but when I saw them, I felt that this was not the case at all."
Naturally, everyone still doesn't understand this.
They all frowned, wondering what this meant.
Zhang Qihai continued to ask.
"Can you imagine what kind of place this is?"
They thought about it carefully before answering.
"Wild mountains and wild hills."
"Yes!"
Zhang Qihai nodded immediately and raised his hand to pat his thigh.
"If there are people who really want to live here for a long time, if they don't have some skills, they would have been attacked by others or bullied by these birds of prey and wild beasts countless times."
After thinking about it carefully, everyone felt that this was indeed the truth.
They nodded immediately and started talking.
"Yes, yes. This place is quite remote. Even if someone bullies them, there is no one who can help them unless they are strong themselves."
"I think that's true too. If it were me, even if I had some skills, I wouldn't want to live in a place like this."
“I also think this place is too dangerous.”
Everyone expressed their opinions, which were almost the same.
None of them wanted to live in such a desolate mountain area.
It's not just because this place is really too scary.
And there is another particularly important reason.
There are many birds of prey and wild beasts here.
If they live here, they will encounter some troubles and dangers.
Maybe there are some people with bad intentions.
No matter what, they would never put themselves in such danger.
If so, what do these represent?
Zhang Qihai then continued to speak.
"But when I looked at their eyes just now, they were clearly filled with fear, as if they were very afraid of us. And I only saw two people just now, one was an old man and the other was a child."
