Successor Goddess of Death (Series 2)
23. Village Chief
" Who ?"Ask her in a low voice.
"I don't know either. " Reply Xing Feng and Xing Luo.
"Let me open the door. " Say her.
"But you're a woman, let me open the door. " Said Xing Feng and Xing Luo in unison.
They looked at each other sharply.
"Let me open up, you just healed Xing Luo." Said Xing Feng.
"No, brother, you're so tired from fighting that I can even run 100 times around the village. " Said Xing Luo stubbornly.
"That's it, let me open. " His speech was irritated, he walked in disregarding the cries of the two men from behind him.
He opened the door and saw an old man in pretty good clothes when the citizens of other people knocked on the door.
"Ah, can I help you ? Let's go in first. " Take it kindly.
"Thank you young hero. " Said the grandfather.
He invited the grandfather to walk in and meet Xing Luo and Xing Feng.
"Village head. " Xing Feng said in surprise, he was a little surprised but easily hid it.
"Miss hero and Young Master Xing have helped a lot for Rain Village. We can't give too many gifts because our Village donors, lately started to leave. " The village chief said sadly.
The village chief gave up two bags of silver, Xing Feng intended to refuse, but he immediately accepted.
And signaled Xing Feng to accept her immediately.
"Village chief, can I be a rain village donor ?" Ask her.
"What ?! Miss really wants to be a Rain village donor ? But the tax advantage here is too bad. " The village chief said pessimistically.
"Just calm down, I can turn this village into a very prosperous village. This is to start with, call people to make a fencing that is more sturdy. Fix everyone's houses here. " He gave up a bag of gold.
"Miss, this is too much. " The village chief said in surprise.
"Do your best, I'll be back soon. " Say her.
"Thank you, miss. " Said the village chief wanting to kneel down.
But he had already restrained the young man's thin body first.
"Consider the food that is given to the younger generation. Do you understand ?" Ask her.
"Yes, I understand, miss. Are you leaving now, hero lady ?" Ask the village chief.
"Right, I will leave now along with Xing Feng and Xing Luo." he said as he nodded.
"Miss take it easy, I'll give you my best. " Said the Village Chief with happy tears.
"Yes I believe in you so don't waste my trust in you. Because if I'm already disappointed, then I'll find it hard to trust that person again. " His speech was full of insinuations to the two people next to him.
"Miss, I will definitely not waste your trust. You just calm down. " The village chief said.
"Hm, I get it. I'm leaving right now and I'm most likely coming back next week. Remember well my message, make high defense, then give nutritious food to young people in 10 years. Train them physically well. " His speech while riding a horse was followed by Xing Feng.
Xing Luo looked a little confused as Xing Feng's horse was too small to ride on two people.
"You're coming with me. " Say her.
He told Xing Luo to climb onto Xiao Hei's back. Xiao Hei was a large horse that could be climbed by two people even 3 people with children.
"Well, how about we both ride that horse. You ride this horse. " Said Xing Feng hurriedly.
"No need, Xiao Hei did not want to be climbed by a stranger. " Say her coldly.
"Select one of you, I'll give you 3 seconds or I'll die you two. " Say it in the same tone.
The two men seemed to have a small fight before Xing Feng finally resigned himself and chose to budge and let Xing Luo sit behind him.
Xing Luo's smile became extremely wide, the man climbed onto Xiao Hei's back.
"Let me take the horse. " Said Xing Luo, she nodded.
His position right now was like being in Xing Luo's embrace, this made Xing Feng become angry but could only remain silent and swallow his vexation.
After being in Xing Luo's arms like this, she realized that her feelings for this young man behind her had already completely disappeared.
She smiled thinly behind her veil and felt grateful. Because, that way he won't be the same as he was.
The long journey through, until the end of the day has begun to darken.
"Day is getting dark, it's still dangerous. Many bandits on the road ahead, we better spend the night there. " Said Xing Feng worriedly.
"Yes, we'll spend the night here. I starve. " His speech, he jumped down without waiting for Xing Luo to go down first.
His feet touched the ground precisely and he took out the corn.
"We're going to burn corn. " Say while sitting under a tree.
"i'll find firewood. " The brothers said compactly before staring at each other intently.
He sighed and asked inwardly what happened to these two brothers in front of him.
"No more need, I've prepared it. " His mouthful mediates before taking out a stack of firewood.
"For fire, let me live. " Said Xing Feng with a triumphant smile.
Xing Luo wanted to refute but couldn't, because among them only Xing Feng had the fire element.
He uses gloves, because in his hands constantly let out the cold. It would put the fire out quickly and he didn't want that to happen.
They burned each other's corn silently, although sometimes the two men stole a glance at Xue Fenghuang.
Xue Fenghuang who knew that was just silent and put on a face not caring. He pretended as if he was not aware that he was stared silently by the two people in front of him.
