“…”

Huai Jin frowned, and his forehead darkened with anger.

Sheng Wu actually scolded him, "You're so ugly, little brat."

Didn’t she give him the mask because she thought he was ugly? Now that he’s wearing it, why is she still humiliating him like this?

However, the young man Huai Jin, who was about the height of her waist, held his hands together with a forbearing expression. He didn't understand. Although the Sheng Wu he had seen from afar in his previous life was a bit ruthless and cold, she was not so vicious and cruel.

It’s really more annoying than before!

But unfortunately, he still needs to grow under her wings...

So, he lowered his eyebrows and looked at Sheng Wu with a desolate and innocent look in his eyes, as if he was seriously hurt by her words. He twitched his pale thin lips, and with half of his handsome face covered by a silver mask, he also silently replied with a few words.

"Master is right. I am ashamed and have offended your eyes." His attitude was humble but hurt.

Wow, what a fragrant tea smell.

Seeing this, Sheng Wu sneered slightly, and relying on the fact that she was walking at the back and no one dared to look back at her, she simply raised her hand.

"Well, this is your fault. But I am kind. If I couldn't see it, you wouldn't feel so inferior and guilty." She transmitted a voice from a private room into Huai Jin's ears.

A white silk ribbon suddenly appeared in her hand, and she covered her eyes with it. Her beautiful and delicate face looked even more cold and pure, and under the moonlight, she looked like a fairy who had fallen into the mortal world.

Hearing this, Huai Jin not only did not feel comforted, but even felt that Sheng Wu was insulting him in various ways!

He was extremely angry. How could this woman be so bad!

He simply turned his head and stopped looking at Sheng Wu.

However, Hua Lingjiu noticed Sheng Wu's actions and his eyes suddenly turned worried.

"Master, what's wrong with you?"

Her words also attracted the others, and they immediately looked at Sheng Wu with their hearts perked up.

Yu Chenming also stopped in his tracks. When he turned around, he saw Shengwu's eyes covered with a white ribbon, her nose was tall and straight, and her bright jawline was shining like the moonlight.

Dressed in a pale purple and gold-gilded robe, he looked like a high and aloof immortal, unconcerned with worldly affairs.

His heart suddenly sank.

[Ding, the male protagonist's favorability is 40! ]

"Nothing, I just think the moon is too dazzling." Sheng Wu lied with his eyes open.

Hearing this, everyone frowned and subconsciously looked up at the sky, then looked at the moon which was half covered by dark clouds.

“…”

Everyone's mouth twitched. Well, Master's heart was as deep as the sea. They shouldn't ask or think about it.

Yu Chenming led everyone to Chengye Village quietly.

The village in front of me only has about forty households. It is quite large and the houses are much more luxurious than those in other villages.

But it was already late at night, and except for the main road, almost no one in the village still had lights on.

The terrain here is relatively high, and at night there will be a layer of mist covering it, revealing the misty water vapor.

Luo Qi: "Big Brother, shall we go in directly?"

Yu Chenming observed carefully, "No rush, wait a little longer. This village always gives me an inexplicable weird feeling, it makes me very uncomfortable."

Hearing this, everyone followed orders.

"Oh well."

Hua Lingjiu, who already knew the plot, frowned, and there was a hint of hesitation in his fox eyes. Should he tell them about the horror of this place?

This is the place where the master arranged for her to train. If she doesn't go, what reason can she give?

Furthermore, in the original plot, the problem with this place wasn't revealed until ten years later, when the male protagonist, Yu Chenming, had grown up and set up a trap for Sheng Wu. Now that it's ten years earlier, those evil spirits haven't grown to such a terrifying state yet.

Hua Lingjiu was in a dilemma, especially the ending that the system told her, which was like a stone pressing on her heart. She was used to lying down and thinking that if there was a big problem, she would wake up and deal with it, but now she could no longer take things one step at a time without any care.

Hua Lingjiu took a deep breath, clenched his fingers tightly, and finally.

"I......"

She opened her mouth and was about to tell him about the strangeness of the village.

but.

“Someone’s coming!”

Yu Chenming said coldly and quickly bent down.

Upon hearing this, the rest of the people behind him immediately squatted down and hid in a bush almost as a conditioned reflex.

Hua Lingjiu was also interrupted and had to take a look at the situation for a while.

But Sheng Wu didn't move at all, she just stood straight, but her shadow was no longer visible on the ground, she was obviously invisible.

"Second Elder, this is the village." The middle-aged man's voice sounded.

Suddenly, eight people in black robes with no visible faces appeared in front of Chengye Village.

The men were tall, with strange and mysterious golden patterns on their black robes. Only the part of their faces from the bridge of their noses down were visible, and their faces could not be seen clearly.

Yu Chenming and others have the help of the big boss Sheng Wu to hide their aura, so no one can detect it.

Before being called the Second Elder, he stood at the front, raised his head slightly, and his hoarse voice seemed to be deliberately changing.

"Well, go and take a look. This time, the finished product cannot be wrong." The deep voice that was intimidating without being angry was wrapped with a hint of coldness.

"Yes!" A group of people went in quickly and strangely.

Yu Chenming watched, and although he couldn't hear what they were saying, he had a hunch that the weirdness of the village was related to these people.

He turned his head and looked at Sheng Wu, his sword-like eyebrows slightly raised, indicating, "Master, they..."

Sheng Wu glanced sideways slightly, her perfect profile looking dignified, and she said nothing.

Seeing this, Yu Chenming immediately understood that Sheng Wu didn't care about these people.

Then he turned to look at the others, his eyes solemn.

"The people who just went in were quite advanced. It might be dangerous for us to go in now, but there's also a high chance we'll find something important. What do you think?"

He did not make a decision directly, but asked everyone first.

Upon hearing this, the young men looked at each other, frowning, obviously having the same idea as Yu Chenming.

After a few seconds, they seemed to have an invisible tacit understanding.

They all nodded without hesitation.

"Enter!"

I don’t know if it was because the young men were fearless, or because, although Sheng Wu said he wouldn’t take action, the young men knew in their hearts that their master would follow them, and they were grateful that they still had one last trump card.

They chose to take the risk.
