The spear that suddenly fell from above startled me.

These spears were only about ten centimeters apart, like a giant net that enveloped them from below.

As the middle-aged man said, the spears were not falling very fast, but the red-reflecting tips of the spears looked terrifying.

Just when I thought the red light outside was just to let the four people on horseback appear, I suddenly noticed that countless pieces of paper money were falling from the sky at the end of the street, followed by the sounds of suona horns and gongs and drums.

I heard a commotion and frowned, because the music sounded like funeral music.

Is there a funeral procession in Fengmen Village in the middle of the night?

I was about to peek out to see what was going on when the spear above my head fell down. I had no choice but to crawl into the coffin next to me and close the lid.

"when!"

A moment later, the coffin lid made a metallic clanging sound.

I tried to push the coffin lid again, but it wouldn't budge. I don't know if the coffin was locked or if the spears outside were jamming the coffin lid's slide rails.

I left Dingzi Street and came here to learn more about this place. But in Fengmen Village, everything requires money. Without money, I couldn't get any information or buy anything at a bargain price, so I simply lay down in the coffin and fell fast asleep.

I don't know how long I slept. When I pushed open the coffin lid, the outer door was already open, and the middle-aged man who led me here was nowhere to be seen.

When I returned to the bustling city center, I finally understood why that banyan tree had grown so robustly. At the top of the banyan tree, there was a huge full-spectrum plant light, with sunlight-like rays pouring down from the sky. Combined with the lanterns under the tree, it looked even more eerie.

Illuminated by the lights, I discovered that the space was exceptionally large, and there were no carvings on the surrounding walls, clearly indicating that it had been expanded.

My sense of direction is pretty good. After returning to the neighborhood, I followed the route I came from and prepared to go back to T-junction to find Jiang Man and the others.

As a result, I hadn't walked far back when I saw Jiang Man and her group walking towards me from a distance, and with them was the young man who had lent me the money last night.

Upon seeing me, the monkey rushed up to me with incredible speed: "Young Master Duan! What are you doing here! We've been looking for you all over, we thought you were still half asleep!"

I looked at the young man who had lied to me, and my anger flared up instantly. I pointed at him and yelled, "Never mind that, grab him!"

Because I was wearing a mask, the young man hadn't recognized me before. But when he heard my voice, he turned around and ran back like a startled rabbit.

Jiang Man reacted swiftly, grabbing the young man's clothes by the shoulder with one hand as he turned around, tripping him and knocking him to the ground. Xue Dong then pressed the young man's back with his knee, pinning his hands behind his back.

"Ouch! It hurts!"

After Xue Dong pinned the young man down, he immediately cried out in pain: "According to the rules of Fengmen Village, it is strictly forbidden to harm others. What you are doing is going to get you into trouble!"

Seeing the other man struggle, Xue Dong grabbed his joint with one hand, causing the young man to let out a cry of pain. At the same time, he threatened, "Kid, do you really think we don't know anything? Fengmen Village strictly forbids killing in private, but it doesn't say you can't hurt people. If you dare to move again, I'll break your arms and legs!"

Seeing Xue Dong subdue the young man, Manjing asked, bewildered, "Wasn't this guy helping us? Why did we suddenly attack him?"

Jiang Man then asked me, "Is there something wrong with this person? Was he sent by the rival?"

"No! He's a fraud!"

I shook my head and asked Jiang Man, "How did you two end up together?"

"He came to us and said that the first people to come to Fengmen Village were all penniless, but he could lend me 100 million yuan. However, after deducting handling fees and other expenses, I could only receive 70 million yuan!"

Just as I guessed, this young man was a professional conman who frequented the newbie zone, scamming newcomers.

He only cheated me out of 2.5 million before, but now that he's caught Jiang Man, this fat sheep, he's going to cheat her out of more than 10 million.

I kicked the young man, explained the rules for withdrawing money in Fengmen Village to Jiang Man, and pointed at the young man, saying, "This guy is a professional swindler. Last night, he swindled me out of more than two million yuan, and I also lost 1.5 million yuan in handling fees!"

"You bastard, we trusted you so much, and you actually betrayed us?"

After hearing my story, the monkey grabbed the young man by the collar and demanded, "Give us back the money you swindled!"

"It's all gone, I really have nothing left! After I got the money yesterday, I went to the casino hoping to win it back, but I lost it all!"

The young man, seemingly unfazed, stared at us and said, "The old folks of Fengmen Village all know I'm a gambling addict. Years ago, I came here to sell a batch of family heirlooms, but I became addicted to gambling and lost everything. Now I live by cheating and swindling, gambling away any money I have. Anyway, I can't leave Fengmen Village for the rest of my life. If you really want to kill me, it might be a relief for me. Go ahead!"

"Hey, trying to play the rogue with me, Brother Sparrow? When I was a thug, you were still cramping in your dad's calves!"

Lin Que was furious with the young man. She stepped forward, grabbed one of his fingers, and forcefully pressed it in the opposite direction: "Are you going to pay back our money or not?"

The young man, his face covered in sweat from the pain, was still yelling, "I have no money, just kill me!"

"You're still pretending to be stupid!"

The monkey went up and slapped the young man: "Didn't you say that everything in Fengmen Village costs money? How will you survive without money?"

“Fengmen Village does need money, but food and drinks are free. The restaurants on the main street are divided into six levels. As long as you spend one million yuan a month, you can eat for free at the lowest level restaurant!”

The young man's face twitched in pain: "I live at number Ding 13. If you don't believe me, you can search my body and my place to see if I have any money! There are no laws or fraud here in Fengmen Village. If you lose, you lose. If you really want to kill me, you'll all pay with your lives! Come on!"

Seeing the young man's pained expression, I waved my hand and said, "Forget it, let him go!"

The monkey looked at me unwillingly: "Young Master Duan, he cheated you out of more than two million, are we just going to let him go like this?"

"We have important business to attend to. There's no need to waste time on such a scoundrel. Consider the money we were swindled out as tuition; it's gone, it's gone!"

I waved my hand and said, "I'm lucky enough that I met you guys and didn't get swindled out of more money by you guys!"
