Only me in the world is normal

Chapter 267 How dare you be so arrogant without help?

"There seems to be a problem with the car."

The driver said that he had restarted the car several times, but failed to start the car. He got out of the car to check it, got in and announced, "The car broke down."

"Then what should we do?" A group of people looked at him.

"I'll go to the village and make a call to see if the company can send another car over," the driver said.

"Is it fixed?" someone asked.

The driver waved his hand and got out of the car, without saying anything, Xia Yanzhen stood up and followed.

"Huh?" The driver looked at him in surprise.

"I want to make a call too." Xia Yanzhen said with a smile.

"Oh, yes, yes." The driver showed a dazed expression, "Come with me, I often run here, and I'm fairly familiar with the people in the village."

Xia Yanzhen nodded and followed the driver into Xing'an Village.

As soon as I stepped into the Xing'an Village, there was information:
[The first ring task has been completed. 】

[The second ring task is started: Don't leave Xing'an Village, spend three days in Xing'an Village. 】

[Second Mission Success Reward: Randomly unlock an ability, or take an item from the imprint (team) space (optional), or unlock some enhanced physical fitness. 】

[Failure penalty: If you fail the promotion task, you will return after randomly erasing three abilities. Insufficient abilities cannot be replaced, and those who are insufficient will be obliterated. 】

[During the second ring mission, depending on the situation, the third ring mission will be triggered in advance. 】

[Please select the first ring task reward...]

"The rewards are still the same. I don't know how many rings there are in this promotion task." Xia Yanzhen secretly said in his heart.

He didn't have much to choose as a reward, so naturally he took out a piece of equipment.

Originally planned to take out the Burning Blood Sword, but Xia Yanzhen saw that there was no Burning Blood Sword in the imprint space, only the Wrath of the Sun.

The Wrath of the Great Sun is naturally considered a piece of equipment, and the Burning Blood Sword and Weeping Blood Spear are included in it, and are not separated independently.

As long as Xia Yanzhen took out the Wrath of the Great Sun, he would have weapons such as the Burning Blood Sword and Weeping Blood Spear.

Without any hesitation, Xia Yanzhen made the choice to take out the Wrath of the Great Sun and put the Buddhist beads on his wrist.

The driver who was walking in front didn't notice that there was an extra string of Buddhist beads on the wrist of the person behind him. He led Xia Yanzhen forward, walking unhurriedly.

Xia Yanzhen looked around.

This Xing'an Village is bigger than expected, but when you look over it, you can still see it is surrounded by mountains. Only the road you entered just now is connected to the outside world, and you will pass a bridge on the way.

The standard scenario where an island will be formed if something goes wrong.

The main road of the village is a cement floor, which looks quite clean, with buildings of three, four, and four or five floors on both sides.

It's a bit different from a small bungalow, but it's not bad from the outside.

It is the kind of tall and spacious rural self-built house. The interior decoration depends on personal financial resources, and some of them will be well decorated.

Some are on the first and second floors, and the commonly used places such as bedrooms are decorated.

The upper three, four, and five floors are all blanks.

There were very few pedestrians on the road, and there was a small supermarket on the side of the road. The driver said to Xia Yanzhen: "You are here, I will call first."

"Okay." Xia Yanzhen was not in a hurry about making a phone call, he was just looking for an excuse, and it would be good to just fool around when the time comes.

The driver walked into the small supermarket, Xia Yanzhen saw the boss behind the glass counter leading the driver further inside.

After a while, the driver came out with a helpless expression on his face: "It's bad luck. There was a problem with the telephone line in the village a few days ago, and it hasn't been fixed yet."

"Where's the signal?" Xia Yanzhen asked.

"No, I don't know what's going on." The driver took out his phone and looked at it, but there was still no signal.

"It doesn't matter to me, anyway, I don't usually contact my family very much." Xia Yanzhen said, "But what about those people?"

"We can only stay in the village for one night." The driver said, "We had been received at the holiday manor at night, and we had agreed. If we didn't arrive, they would definitely come to find us."

Xia Yanzhen nodded.

The driver quickly walked out of the village and returned to the car, after a while.

A group of people got out of the car and took out their luggage from under the car.

There will inevitably be dissatisfaction and complaints on the face.

The squad leader Cao Fang and the tour guide continued to reassure everyone, and the tour guide even offered a full refund and a free group tour.

After all, I finally calmed down my emotions.

A group of people dragged their suitcases into Xing'an Village, leaving only the fatigue of the journey for the time being.

Everyone stood on the side of the road chatting, and the driver, tour guide and squad leader went to the village head to discuss it.

The driver and tour guide said that they knew the village chief and had a little friendship, so they could ask him for help.

Xing'an Village is not small, but there is definitely no hotel.

There are two small supermarkets, one vegetable market, and several small noodle restaurants.

There is a clinic in the village. If you have a headache and fever, you can go see it.

Dozens of people want to stay for one night, and they have to find the village head to see if they can arrange it.

Xia Yanzhen followed the three of them and said he wanted to help, but the three rushed back and asked him to "protect" the group of Yingying and Yanyan.

Xing'an Village is quite deserted.

Except for the door of the small supermarket, the doors and windows of the houses on both sides of the road are closed.

Xia Yanzhen didn't go back for "protection", but wandered around the village.

The basic "shape" of a village road is similar to a tree.

The road into the village is the backbone.

In addition to the houses on both sides, there are roads that branch out continuously, which are much smaller, changing from the four-lane main road to a barely two-lane road, which is still a concrete floor.

There are houses on both sides of the trail, and then there will be four or five, seven or eight or even more houses at the end.

A little further inside is the foot of the mountain.

There are a few sporadic houses on the lower part of the mountain, which are much "older".

Most of them are uninhabited.

There are also several rivers passing through Xing'an Village and converging at one place in the village to form a pool of water.

It's summer vacation now, and the weather is not too hot.

The current was abundant, and the pebble beaches on the river bank were flooded.

The pool looks deeper.

"Young man, where did you come from? I've never seen it before. You're not from the village." Xia Yanzhen was still wandering around, when the door of a house on the side of the road opened.

An old man who looked about 70 or [-] years old came out and asked with a smile.

"Yes, I'm not from this village." Xia Yanzhen said.

"Coming to travel?"

"Well, the car broke down, there is no other way but to stay in the village for one night." Xia Yanzhen said.

"That's it, why don't you stay at my house at night. My grandson's room is newly renovated. He hasn't come back. It's empty and no one has lived in it." The old man said with a smile.

It's just that his expression is quite cold, and his smile is also very cold.

It doesn't look like hospitality by any means.

Even if it's not a village in the mission world where promotion missions are carried out.

It also looks a bit weird.

"Okay." Xia Yanzhen agreed without hesitation.

It was the old man's turn to be stunned for a moment, then laughed again: "That's a good relationship."

"Does the old man live alone?" Xia Yanzhen asked.

"Well, the children and grandchildren are not around, and the rooms are all prepared for them, and they can't go home several times a year." The old man sighed.

"Where's your wife?" Xia Yanzhen started the routine.

"Been sick and died for a few years," said the old man.

"My condolences." Xia Yanzhen said without emotion.

The old man shook his head: "It's been a long time coming. At our age, maybe one day we won't wake up, and our legs will disappear with a kick."

"Can I go in and have a drink?" Xia Yan really couldn't empathize.

The old man nodded and welcomed Xia Yanzhen into the room.

Inside is a smooth concrete floor, empty, some rather old furniture, and white paint on the walls.

The lighting in the room is not good, it is a bit dim.

But in summer, it's cool.

At night, open the front and rear doors, and the night breeze will be cool.

The old man brought Xia Yanzhen to the back kitchen and poured him a glass of water.

Xia Yanzhen took it and drank it down: "Old man, can I go and see the bedroom?"

"Okay." The old man agreed, and walked to the stairs first.

"There is no handrail on this staircase, isn't it dangerous?" Xia Yanzhen asked.

The stairs leading to the second floor in the house are also smooth concrete without handrails, which is not very friendly to the elderly.

"I'm used to it." The old man chuckled, supported the wall on one side, and walked up slowly, "I usually live downstairs."

On the second floor, the old man pointed to a south-facing room and said, "How about staying here at night?"

Xia Yanzhen looked over and saw that this was a specially decorated room, the kind where you need to take off your shoes to get in.

The wooden floor is slightly higher than the concrete floor, and there is a big bed inside, and the TV is opposite the bed.

There were some sundries on the bedside table, and the bedding on the bed was still bright red, which was very annoying.

"I'm not used to living where other people have lived." Xia Yanzhen shook his head, expressing that it was not very good. .

"How can it be? It's been renovated and I haven't lived in it."

"Aren't those things yours?" Xia Yanzhen pointed to the sundries on the bedside table.

Those are water glasses and other personal items.

"...I want to watch TV here." The old man replied dryly.

"There's a TV downstairs too."

"The TV downstairs is too small. I am old, and my eyes are comfortable watching a big TV." The old man said, gradually revealing a fierce look, "Young man, I kindly invite you to stay for one night, but you still push back, can't you justify it?"

"Oh, are you angry?" Xia Yanzhen said.

"Of course, a brat like you who doesn't know how to respect elders needs to be educated." The old man showed a twisted smile, "Don't worry, there is no one at home, and the neighbors are not around. You can yell louder so that no one will hear you of."

"No one?" Xia Yanzhen further confirmed.

"Even if there is someone, don't expect someone to save you." The old man smiled, showing two rows of very neat teeth.

"How dare you be so arrogant without someone helping you?"

Xia Yanzhen kicked it out.

The old man stretched out his hand to stop him, and even grabbed Xia Yanzhen's shoe.

"Oh?" Xia Yanzhen raised his eyebrows, "It seems that you are not an ordinary person." As he spoke, he exerted strength with his left foot.

The old man rolled backwards like a cannonball and flew out, crashing into the wooden door of the room behind him, and crashing into the room.

At the beginning of this kick, Xia Yanzhen didn't use any strength at all.

It is the power to kick ordinary people over, but I didn't expect this old man to guard against it.

Far stronger than appearance.

　One day later, I still feel uncomfortable, and the pain has shifted to the left side.

　　The position near the heart is a bit panicky, don't wait, go to the hospital to check it out tonight, there is only one update today, please forgive me.
