Chapter 168 Barren Mountain



When Uncle Zhao saw this, he turned around and looked at Lao Hei and Lao Wu in astonishment, and the two behind him also looked back at Uncle Zhao with shocked eyes.

Seeing this, Uncle Zhao's already furrowed brows furrowed even more. He opened his mouth and said, "It should be right. When I came here last time, the compass was spinning non-stop. The place we are looking for should be ahead. But to get there, we have to pass through this strange village. We can't avoid it. Sigh~ I see that this village appeared so suddenly. It looks like it's probably a very troublesome ghost village."

After saying this, Uncle Zhao put away the compass and asked, "So? Are we going or not?"

"Uncle Zhao, are you sure this village is a ghost village? Why are ghosts out so early in broad daylight? Don't scare me!"

After hearing Uncle Zhao's words, the fat man looked at the village in front of him with a bit of fear.

Uncle Zhao was speaking to Lao Hei just now. After hearing Uncle Zhao's words, Lao Hei hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded firmly and said, "Let's go, of course we're going. We've come all this way and caught the person. Are we going to turn back just because of a ghost village?"

Old Wu also looked unwilling to give up. He said, "Who cares if it's some kind of ghost village? I've been to so many places, it's not like I haven't seen ghosts before. What kind of demons and monsters haven't I, Old Wu, seen? Let's go!"

After hearing what the two of them were saying, the fat man wanted to say something, but before he could open his mouth, Old Hei took the lead and walked forward. As he walked, he said, "What are you afraid of? You've been following me for so long, what haven't you seen? Come on, as long as we're careful and cross this village, we'll be fine."

Actually, none of the people in the team were no longer novices. They had all encountered some special situations before, so they were all a little scared when they saw this ghost village. However, they each had something to protect themselves, so they wouldn't back down at this moment.

Under Lao Hei's leadership, no one in the team backed down. Everyone carefully set off towards the village, including Yue Jiu Nian, Yue Jiu Zai, and Jiang Yan, who no longer cared about life or death.

Before entering the village, Lao Hei instructed, "Everyone be careful. Don't talk to the villagers or look at them. Just follow me. I know the way. As long as we get through this ghost village, we'll definitely reach our destination."

Yue Jiu smiled slightly after hearing Lao Hei's words. She turned to Jiang Yan behind her and said, "Hey, Jiang Yan, are you afraid of ghosts?"

After spending a few days with these people, Jiang Yan had already guessed what they did, so he was a little scared when he heard what they had just said. However, when he thought that he was going to die soon, he was not so scared. He gave a bitter smile and said, "Hey, what does it matter if I'm scared or not? You all know that I probably won't live much longer."

As he spoke, he peeked ahead curiously, and then after a while, he belatedly said, "Huh? How do you know my name? I don't think I've ever told you my name."

Yue Jiu Nian and Yue Jiu Zai were still disguised, so Jiang Yan did not recognize them. He had simply chatted with them when he met them in the group and had not mentioned his name. So he was quite surprised to hear that Yue Jiu Nian knew his name.

When Yue Jiu Nian heard Jiang Yan's words, she smiled mysteriously at him without saying anything. Yue Jiu Zai then said with a smile, "Hehe~ Well, that's a secret. You'll find out when the time comes."

Jiang Yan felt suspicious after hearing their words. He wondered if he had introduced himself before and told them his name, but he had forgotten about it, which was why he couldn't remember.

But after thinking for a long time, he still couldn't remember telling Yue Jiu Nian his name. He said, "That's not right. We haven't talked much. I don't think I've ever told you my name. Could it be that I've been too stressed lately and have lost my memory?"

"Hehe~ Actually, you haven't lost your memory. You really told us your name yourself~"

Yue Jiuzai was originally thinking about whether to reveal their true identities to Jiang Yan now, but after seeing Jiang Yan's current appearance, she decided to continue teasing him.

"Really? No, I don't think so. Why can't I remember?"

Jiang Yan grabbed her messy hair and thought for a long time, but still couldn't remember.
