Xu Ning understood why Big Dipper was panicking.
The fishing village that appeared in front of the two people and the dog was dilapidated.
However, there were bamboo racks everywhere, and tattered fishing nets, old clothes, and pants were hung to dry.
Most of the houses had wooden walls and thatched floors. The houses in the east and west were placed randomly without any planning.
If this dog broke into the fishing village and ran around in all directions, the two of them would not be able to stop it.
What was even more hateful was that if this dog was raised by someone in the village, or if it was locked up in someone's house and hidden away, then he and Big Dipper probably wouldn't be able to reason with it in this village.
However, Xu Ning and Big Dipper's worries didn't come true.
The dog had not run more than ten steps into the fishing village when its front legs suddenly gave way and it fell to the ground.
The inertia caused the dog to slide forward a few meters after falling to the ground.
Even so, the dog's mouth was still tightly holding the black rice nest.
Big Dipper was overjoyed. Ignoring Guan Buguan, he charged forward and forcefully snatched the rice coop away.
Xu Ning was afraid that she would be attacked by the dog, so he quickly followed her.
The dog lying on the ground could no longer see the rise and fall of its chest and abdomen.
The dog's mouth was foaming, and its tongue hung weakly on the ground, stained with soil.
Frowning, Xu Ning turned around and saw the delighted Big Dipper pinching a corner of his coat, preparing to wipe the white foam off his rice nest.
Xu Ning sighed and pointed at the clear water canal by the roadside.
"Let's rinse it in the water. Don't be in a hurry to eat it. Let's make a fire tonight and cook it before eating!”
The commotion between the two of them on the street finally alerted the people in the fishing village.
Several men and women came out from the surrounding doors, all of them staring warily at Xu Ning and Big Dipper.
Many people even looked at the dog lying on the ground.
Xu Ning sneered and took a step forward.
He lifted the leg that the dog had bitten through his pants and stepped on the dog that was gradually cooling down.
"This dog almost bit off my leg and my sister's hand on the barren beach for food.”
"We chased it all the way here. It looks like this dog wants to go back to its master's house.”
"Who is the master who raised him? I don't want much for the medical fees. I'll give you back your dog and leave with the money.”
Xu Ning's child-like appearance made these few words that should have been somewhat imposing lose their deterrence.
However, he still received a response from the villagers.
"Who would raise such a dirty dog?”
"I think you two brats deliberately brought a dog here to extort us.”
"20,000 Moriah, you really dare to ask for so much.”
Some people even went back to their rooms and closed the door without saying anything.
Xu Ning muttered," As expected!”
He turned around and prepared to call Big Dipper over to drag the dog.
However, at this moment, an old man in plain clothes stood in front of Xu Ning with his hands behind his back.
"Are you two from the Barren Beach?”The old man asked kindly.
Xu Ning shook his head." We don't have a home. Liulan is nothing.”
The old man glanced at Big Dipper, who had just finished washing his bread, then looked down at the dog that was either exhausted or starved to death.
He sighed deeply." They're all pitiful fellows.”
The old man said to Xu Ning kindly,"There's another room north of my house. It's been empty for many years." Although it's still early autumn, winter will always come. Do you want to make do with living here for a while?”
Xu Ning was naturally willing, but he still turned to Big Dipper.
Seeing Big Dipper's delight, he politely bowed to the old man.""Thank you, grandpa.”
Old Ru nodded and slowly walked north along the dirt road with her hands behind her back.
Xu Ning and Big Dipper each dragged a dog leg and the dead dog behind them.
"I'm still a little dizzy. Why do I suddenly have meat and a place to live? Is this all your good luck?”
Big Dipper was still a little drunk as he asked Xu Ning with a grin.
Xu Ning gave her a big smile." You'll have more good luck in the future!”
However, Lolita was so immersed in her joy that she did not hear the words that leaked out from the cracks in the door on both sides of the street.
Xu Ning heard every word.
"Village Chief, that old fart, is being kind again. He's taking in those people of unknown origins.”
"After his son died, he hasn't been normal.”
"I'm just afraid that those children will bring us something dirty.”
Xu Ning had a rough idea of the morals of his "neighbors".
The most important thing now was to settle down.
He had already obtained the God's Eye. Although it looked a little useless, if he used it well, he would be much stronger than ordinary people.
He had to find a way to develop the function as soon as possible. First, he had to have some power to protect himself.
The old village chief's house was indeed very small. There was only a bed, a table, and two long benches in it. There was no room for anything else.
However, Xu Ning and Big Dipper were very satisfied.
The two of them quickly cleaned up the cobwebs and dust in the room, then they impatiently gathered around the table to share the half pot of fish soup that the old village chief had brought.
The fish soup was hot. The old village chief took advantage of the time when they were cleaning to make a fire to warm it up.
Xu Ning was afraid that Big Dipper's throat would get stuck from the food, so he scooped a bowl of fish soup for her.
He sat to the side and picked out the fish bones for her with his chopsticks. After Big Dipper was full, he started eating the minced meat in his bowl with wine.
The village chief stood at the side and smiled as he watched the two of them eat and drink. His gaze occasionally swept past Xu Ning's wine gourd, and he would reveal a thoughtful expression.
Xu Ning sipped his wine one mouthful after another.
It was not the habit of drinking whenever there was meat in his previous life.
It was because Xu Ning thought that since he had drunk the wine in the wine gourd and activated the God's Eye, then the only way for him to level up was probably to drink wine other than fighting monsters.
After all, he was sure that the Seven Gods of Tivat stood in great numbers, and he wouldn't be able to find a statue of the God of Wine for the time being.
Since drinking wine was considered a tribute, he could also drink the wine seal whose function was temporarily unknown.
Then drink with all your might!
"The decoration on your gourd is very strange. It looks like the God's Eye, but it's not the God's Eye.”
The village chief said slowly," But it looks very valuable. It's best not to let others notice it.”
"Wealth can move people's hearts. If someone thinks of it as the God's Eye, then don't move people's hearts. Perhaps some people are willing to go crazy over it.”
"The two of you are so old. You must take care of yourself.”
Xu Ning brought over an empty bowl and filled it with wine.
He respectfully handed it to the village chief and said,"I'll remember yours. Today, we siblings have been taken care of by you. This bowl of wine is my repayment to you. It's very good for your body.”
The village chief took it with a smile and placed it on the table again.
"I accept your kindness. But ever since…I quit drinking, I haven't touched even half a drop. You can keep it for yourself!”
Xu Ning couldn't persuade the village chief to drink, and he secretly sighed in his heart.
Big Dipper looked at the wine on the table and licked his lips. He slowly moved over and placed his mouth on the table, sipping it with a beaming smile.
Xu Ning glanced at her and ignored her. Anyway, drinking it would only benefit her, so let her be.
The village chief didn't put away the pots and bowls. Instead, he brought some daily necessities over. Then, he slowly walked back to his house with his hands behind his back.
Xu Ning leaned against the door railing, drinking wine and looking at the dark night outside.
Suddenly, the mature voice sounded in her ears again.
Xu Ning was delighted." He's here!"
