Chapter 310 Liu Xuewei Hasn’t Given Up Yet
"Should we continue investigating? Where should we start?" Mo Yu looked at everyone.
"How can we investigate? The villagers won't cooperate with us, and they won't tell us the truth. Even if we want to investigate, we have no idea where to start!"
Wen Luoya looked at Mo Yu and raised his eyebrows. Mo Yu sighed, and suddenly, everyone was at a loss.
"How about we look for the couple's remains first?" Si Nansheng muttered as he stuffed a snack into his mouth.
Suddenly, everyone looked at her, and she couldn't help but lean back.
"Did I... say something wrong?" Si Nansheng looked at them innocently.
"That's true, but does anyone know where their bodies are?" Meng Feifei asked straightforwardly.
Once again, there was a deafening silence.
Si Nansheng, the only one who knew about it, did not say anything. She knew very well that if she dared to say that she knew it now, people would definitely come after her to find out how she knew it.
"It would be better if we just look for them. With so many of us, how could we not find two bodies?" One person spoke, and the rest naturally agreed.
Then, a group of people started discussing where to start looking.
After discussing for a long time, the result was to divide into four groups and search in different directions.
In order to prevent Liu Xuewei and the others from feeling isolated, Hua Lianyi, Meng Feifei and the others went over to tell them that Liu Xuewei and the others were willing to cooperate, and even specifically picked a direction.
After Hua Lianyi told Si Nansheng and the others about the direction Liu Xuewei and the others had chosen, Si Nansheng raised his eyebrows.
Isn’t that the direction where Si Nansheng found Hai Yan?
This Liu Xuewei hasn’t given up yet!
When they went out, many villagers hid in the yard and house to watch.
The village chief and a few strong men stood on the roadside watching Ye Yanqing and the others.
"My dear gods, where are you going? Is there anything we can help you with?" The village chief asked after bowing respectfully.
"No, Village Chief, there's a strange fog in the village, so we plan to go around and see if the problem is somewhere else."
Mo Yu waved to the village chief, and the others nodded, but no one showed any expression.
"Is the problem around the village?"
"Aren't you all immortals? Why haven't you found the results yet?"
"If this continues, we won't dare go out!"
The villagers were questioning him one after another, and Mo Yu didn't know whose questions to answer.
"Hey, stop arguing and let the Immortal answer slowly. Immortal, have you found the person you lost two days ago?" After stopping the villagers, the village chief looked at Mo Yu again.
"Found it." Mo Yu turned to look at Si Nansheng, who was standing there obediently.
"Found it? Why can your people find it, but ours can't?" When the villagers heard that Si Nansheng had been found, they all started to get anxious.
"Although my junior sister was found, she was also seriously injured. If my senior brother hadn't arrived in time, my junior sister might have died."
Mo Yu told them the answer they had agreed upon before. They looked at Si Nansheng's pale face and didn't dare to ask anything else.
The immortals were seriously injured, and the children of ordinary families would definitely not be able to come back.
"Everyone, we have to hurry and check it out. Goodbye." Mo Yu said to the village chief and others and left.
A group of people left in four directions, and the village chief and villagers behind them looked at them.
"Village Chief, what should we do? Seeing them like this, are they going to find out something?"
"If they find out our secret, will they..."
“You guys follow them, and if they find anything, come back and tell us immediately so we can find a way to deal with it.
If they discover our secret, we will kill them all.” As the village chief said this, murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Several young men followed Si Nansheng and the others stealthily, but they didn't see a shadow flash by in the dark.
Although the young men moved very carefully, they were still noticed by Ye Yanqing and the others the moment they caught up.
However, they seemed to know nothing and continued with their own affairs.
They checked but found nothing. During the break, Si Nansheng set up a soundproof barrier, and Shao Yu slowly emerged from Si Nansheng's shadow.
"Miss, the village chief said that if you discover the village's secret, he will kill you all."
Shao Yu looked at Si Nansheng and spoke softly. Si Nansheng sat on the ground with his chin supported.
"It seems that this village has some serious problems. Junior sister, what do you think?" Ye Yanqing asked Si Nansheng.
"Before, Hai Rui told me that he used the thick fog to take some people away from the village, but there were no children among them.
I remember you said that some children seemed to be missing from the village, right?"
Si Nansheng thought for a while and felt that something was not right. There was no need for Hai Rui to lie to her about his consciousness which was about to disappear. What about the missing children in the village?
"Do you think the disappearance of those children is related to the people in the village?" Mo Lu's voice suddenly sounded.
"It can't be that they lost the child themselves and then blamed it all on the thick fog, right?" Mo Yu found it funny.
But his words were met with silence from his senior and junior brothers and sisters.
"No way?" Mo Yu turned and looked at them, his face full of disbelief.
Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs. These people won't abandon their own children, right?
"Brothers, have you ever considered that while consuming mermaid flesh and blood can grant you immortality, it comes at a price?"
Si Nansheng sat up straight and spoke in a serious tone.
"Is it because the child they gave birth to looks like a monster? So, they abandoned the child? That's impossible?" Wen Luoya shook his head, somewhat unconvinced.
"If it is really possible? Adults may grow features like fish scales, then will newborn babies have other features? For example... webbed feet or a fish tail?" Si Nansheng asked cautiously.
"I did hear Elder Dan say that when he was out looking for spiritual herbs, he saw people who accidentally ate mermaid flesh and blood. Their children had webbed hands and feet, just like mermaids' hands."
Nan Qingfeng suddenly remembered what Elder Dan had said before, and everyone fell silent. It seemed as if they knew why those so-called missing children disappeared.
"Almost everyone in the village has consumed mermaid flesh and blood, so naturally few of their offspring are normal. No wonder there are so few children in this village."
Mo Lu frowned. They had been wandering around the village for a long time these past few days, and had only seen a few children. Moreover, those children were timid when they saw them.
At the time they didn't think much of it, just thinking they were afraid of seeing strangers.
Now it seems that they are not afraid of strangers, but they are afraid that they will see something they shouldn’t see!
"These people are really ridiculous. They cause people's families to be destroyed and yet they still act so compassionate." Nan Qingfeng said angrily, clenching his fists.
