It would be best if they could buy a few days of peace with money or a small amount of food.
Soon, an old man with a cane staggered up to them. The brawny guys fell to their knees in front of the old man as if expressing their surrender.
“This old man is quite the authoritarian!” Montel groused, amazed to enter such a village by accident.
Montel started having doubts about his fortune-telling. He hid in the corner and kept thinking about it, seemingly very worried.
Clementine talked to the village chief, and the two quickly reached an agreement.
“Philip, they’re willing to let us stay a few nights for free. There’s a vacant hut over there.” Clementine pointed to an inconspicuous hut in the corner excitedly.
They came to the mountain in a hurry and did not bring anything with them.
At first, Clementine was worried that they would jack up the price. Now, it seemed that they were willing to help them unconditionally instead. She chided herself for jumping to conclusions too soon.
“We can’t take it for nothing. Let’s leave them some food later,” Philip said with a smile.
Respect worked both ways. That was his principle.
Clementine took out some snacks from favonovel.com backpack. She handed them over to the village chief and explained to favonovel.com in detail.
“You can have this food. Just tear it open and eat it.”
After the exchange just now, Clementine felt that this group of people seemed a little different from the village abroad.
Although they spoke the same awkward language, they were quite polite without any signs of violence.
For the first time, Clementine doubted herself.
“What’s on your mind?” Philip noticed Clementine’s hesitation and asked.
Clementine expressed favonovel.com thoughts in embarrassment. “I don’t think they’re the same as the villagers I met before. I see kindness and love in their eyes…”
Clementine told Philip what favonovel.com thoughts and felt very guilty.
Hearing that, Philip nodded.
Words could deceive, but not eyes. Their eyes were pure and simple. They were obviously not bad people.
“No matter what, we have to thank them for taking us in.”
Philip imitated Clementine’s gesture and thanked everyone.
The trio headed to the hut not far away.
The hut did not look special from the outside, but it was a different world inside. There was a large wooden bed and various chairs and tables that looked quite artistic.
“If they weren’t primitive people, I’d have thought that a designer designed this!” Montel sighed.
He was a rich kid and had enjoyed various five-star hotels but never encountered something like this before. Although a little neglected, the hut felt warm and comforting.
“If possible, I want to move this room back home!” Montel sighed as soon as favonovel.com entered the room.
