Chapter 145 Attendance by guest

However, since he was here as a guest …

Then the guest will follow the host.

Everyone sat in a circle.

The food was arranged in a circle.

Shen Qi looked down. They were indeed some of the mountain's ingredients, and outside, there were indeed a few fresh herbs and fungi that were rarely seen.

"Everyone, after you." The Village Chief raised his hand and grabbed his chopsticks as he started to eat. "There aren't that many rules in the mountains. Everyone can do whatever you want."

Although she said so casually, no one dared to take the chopsticks.

Everyone could feel that something was wrong with the village now.

The village chief did not mind, but after taking a bite, he then looked at He Yi Ning with a smile that was not a smile.

Even though He Yi Ning had maintained his silence from the beginning to the end, the village chief could tell that he was the leader of this group with just a glance from the noble and elegant aura of a king on his body.

A faint smile surfaced on He Yi Ning's lips as he pinched the chopsticks and tasted the food in front of him.

Seeing He Yi Ning move his chopsticks, the village chief smiled in satisfaction.

He Yi Ning moved his chopsticks, and the others started to eat.

"I heard that this road is being maintained by you?" As the assistant minister of the Ministry of Commerce, Shen Wu was naturally well-informed and an important person who was active in the atmosphere. That was why he took the initiative to start a conversation.

"Yeah." The Village Chief nodded his head, "There are only a few of our villages in this mountain range. We are not responsible for their protection, who is?"

"Shouldn't there be departments responsible for managing these?" Shen Wu continued to ask.

"There used to be, but now there isn't." The village chief lit a new cigar for himself and blew out smoke as he said, "It's not that easy for people to enter the mountains. Besides, the roads here were often bad, and they had to be repaired every few days. Those people also found it annoying. We'll hand them over to us, the villagers, since we're going out anyways, aren't we? Think of it as providing benefits for the People in the village. "

"So that's how it is. How come we didn't see any old people or children along the way? " Shen Wu continued to pretend to be careless and asked: "They have all been sent outside?"

As soon as Shen Wu finished speaking, a few unfriendly gazes instantly shot over.

The Village Chief lit up the cigar in his hand and leisurely said, "We are only here to earn a living. We naturally do not have any family members by our side."

When the Village Chief said this, he was unwilling to continue.

Shen Wu immediately changed the topic, "Hearing the village chief's accent, it sounds a little bit similar to the southeast coast."

The village chief looked at Shen Wu quickly: "Mr. Shen has good hearing. My hometown is over there, I wonder what Mr. Shen does? It's raining so heavily, yet you're still walking into the mountains? Ordinary people wouldn't choose this time to come! "

Shen Wu immediately said with a smile: "Oh me, I came here to vacation with my brother-in-law. They had just gotten married and were looking for a quiet place to spend the rest of their lives. I heard that the scenery here was pretty good, so I followed them. My brother-in-law opened a small factory and started a small business. I helped him. These are all ordinary people. "

The Village Chief looked at the others and asked, "What about you?"

The bodyguards immediately lied as usual, "We are the company's annual sales champion, the boss will bring us on a tour once he comes."

The assistant Xiaochun was always clean and white, with a smiling face. His words were always persuasive, "I'm the boss' secretary, so I naturally came along with you."

"Then what is this mister's surname?" The village chief looked at He Yi Ning.

"No need for your noble surname." The first thing He Yi Ning said after he entered the room.

The moment he opened his mouth, his deep and magnetic voice made the Village Chief's eyes quiver.

This man's voice was way too pleasant to hear.

"I heard that there's a He Family in H Province …" The village chief looked at He Yi Ning meaningfully.

"It is indeed the main clan." He Yi Ning was also an expert liar, he opened his mouth without blinking, "My great-grandfather is a sibling of mine, the current He Family's great-grandfather."

He Yi Ning perfectly explained why his temperament was so extraordinary.

Even if it was a branch of the He Family s, to the outside world, it was already an awesome existence.

Even if he was a branch, he was still surnamed He.

"So it's Mr. Hoh. I'm truly sorry for the disrespect." The Village Chief gave him a deep look and said, "When night comes, there will be some activity. Since you do not want to live in the house that I provide for all of you, please do not go out at night regardless of what you hear. Otherwise, I can't guarantee everyone's safety. "

This was already a blatant warning.

Shen Qi did not say anything. He Yi Ning and Shen Wu nodded at the same time and said, "As the saying goes, do as the Romans do."

"That's good." When the village chief heard their reply, he nodded his head in satisfaction.

After the meal, they did not stay for long and quickly got up to bid their farewells.

As he watched He Yi Ning's figure disappear into the rain, the middle-aged aunt spoke to the village head anxiously, "This man's conditions are so good. If we could have stayed, then our strength …"

The village chief stopped her from continuing.

"Impossible." The Village Chief flatly denied her suggestion, "Although he only said four words tonight, I can see that this man is not to be trifled with. His condition was indeed very good. It could be said to be the most perfect male body I have ever seen. However, this man gave me a terrifying intuition. Even though he has restrained his aura, the fact that he is unconsciously emitting such nobility still proves that he has a high position in the He Family. "

"But Village Head, if we don't replenish our supply of fresh goods, we will be outclassed by the other branches!" The middle-aged woman said anxiously, "This guy is too righteous! As long as we can control him, we'll definitely be at the top! "

The Village Chief pondered for a moment and said, "We should wait first. We have to hurry up and fix the road outside, otherwise the guests won't be able to come in. "

"I know." The middle-aged woman nodded.

After leaving the Village Chief's house, He Yi Ning and the others immediately returned to the car with tacit understanding, the first thing they did was to vomit the food in their stomachs.

Shen Qi looked at them suspiciously: "Why are you guys …"

As soon as Shen Qi finished speaking, she felt everything in front of him flash!

"Xiao Qi!" He Yi Ning hugged Shen Qi and said to Xiaochun: "Give Xiao Qi an injection."

Xiaochun immediately found a medicine box and skillfully took out a syringe, and directly injected it into Shen Qi's arm.

Only after a long while did Shen Qi regain her senses.

She felt a stab of fear!

What was going on?

"The village chief put a certain dose of hallucinogen in our food. Didn't you see that when we eat, we only eat meat and not vegetables? " Shen Wu explained.

Shen Qi was stunned, "I didn't notice …"

"That village chief, he only eats meat and no food." He Yi Ning explained: "There's a problem with the dishes."

Shen Qi opened her mouth wide, and instantly became speechless!

Why didn't they remind themselves!

He had to see himself make a fool of himself!

Shen Wu forced a smile and said: "Who asked you to be so honest? Eat whatever they give you! "Even though you know there's a problem with this village, you still don't want to talk."

Shen Qi was slightly embarrassed: "That mushroom is really delicious."

"Mushrooms are the easiest to tamper with." He Yi Ning said leisurely: "Especially for those fungi that we don't recognize, let alone those that you don't casually eat."

Shen Qi asked doubtfully, "How did you discover that there was something wrong with this fungus?"

He Yi Ning pointed to the Xiaochun and said: "You still don't know the background of the Xiaochun, right?"

Shen Qi nodded.

Xiao Xia had once been the champion for free fighting and the champion for free fighting. As for the Xiaochun, she really didn't know.

"The specialty of Xiaochun University is Traditional Chinese Medicine. After a graduate student changed to an MBA, they then went on to study western medicine." He Yi Ning continued, "The Xiaochun's family is a Chinese medicine family. He studied Chinese medicine because he wanted to mix with me, and he studied western medicine to cope with all kinds of unexpected situations. "

Shen Qi opened her mouth wide once again.

Why were all the assistants around He Yi Ning so awesome?

What the heck was he doing?

No wonder He Yi Ning always brought Xiaochun wherever he went.

This was clearly a mobile medicine warehouse.

After they had vomited all the food in their stomachs, they suddenly felt a little hungry.

However, for the sake of a better disguise, they did not start a meal together. Instead, one of them was eating a bubbling surface with relish.

Shen Qi could not help but smile. She suddenly remembered that when she was in university, her classmates would also do the same thing.

One person held a bubbling surface barrel and gathered together to chase the drama.

How he missed college.

After eating, everyone went back to their own rooms to rest.

At ten o'clock in the evening, strange sounds rang out in the village.

Shen Qi laid in He Yi Ning's embrace and listened intently, she felt goosebumps all over her body, and said softly: "Can you hear the voices outside, is someone crying?"

He Yi Ning covered Shen Qi's ears: "Go to sleep."

Shen Qi pulled He Yi Ning's hand down, "But there really is someone crying."

He Yi Ning's phoenix eyes sank. "Perhaps."

"Then we …" Shen Qi was just about to say that they should go and save them.

"Do you know what the village chief and the villagers do?" However, He Yi Ning interrupted Shen Qi and brought up another topic.

Shen Qi was startled: "Isn't it just the villagers?"

"Have you ever seen a villager who didn't farm at all, didn't hunt, and didn't do any labor?" He Yi Ning continued to ask Shen Qi, "There are no elderly people or children in a village, and there is no husband and wife here. Have you ever seen a village like this?"

Shen Qi looked at He Yi Ning in shock, and the hairs on her back stood on end: "Then what do you mean? Who are they? Not a villager? "

"Of course not." He Yi Ning caressed the top of Shen Qi's head with his chin: "Even if you want to, I don't. Although they lived in the village, they were not labourers. That village chief was their leader. This village was one of their strongholds. Therefore, we cannot act rashly. Do you understand? "

Shen Qi felt goosebumps all over her body: "Then what exactly do they do?"
