"Do you really not know the reason for the sky?" the woman in light-colored clothes asked.
The old village chief resumed his smiling expression. "We don't know. Maybe today is special, so it hasn't gotten light yet."
Looking at the smiling old village chief, no one believed his nonsense.
At this moment, Ye Guoliang finally saw Miss Bai Xi take action.
She walked towards the wishing tree, her gaze lingering on it, seemingly observing something.
The sudden appearance of the girl disrupted the tourists' calm and orderly activities.
The girl was exceptionally beautiful and charming, and everyone's attention was drawn to her.
Everyone was wondering why they hadn't noticed the girl earlier.
The girl was intently observing the wishing tree.
Upon seeing this, everyone lowered their heads and whispered among themselves.
What is she doing?
An elderly woman looked at Bai Xi and couldn't help but say, "Young lady, you shouldn't be running around like that. It's dangerous there. You should stay with us."
However, the girl simply thanked the kind old woman and continued to focus intently on studying the tree.
Bai Xi glanced at the wishing tree, then looked up at the night sky and calculated the direction with her fingers.
At this moment, no one noticed the strange looks from the old village chief and the villagers.
A tourist, seeing the girl circling the wishing tree for a long time, finally couldn't help but ask curiously, "Girl, what are you looking at there? Did you discover something?"
Bai Xi didn't even look up. "I'm looking for someone."
Looking for someone?
The tourists had three big question marks on their foreheads.
The tourist continued, "Girl, are you kidding me? There's no one under the wishing tree."
They almost suspected that the girl had mental problems.
In this eerie environment, everything the girl did seemed particularly strange.
Just as Bai Xi was about to use her spiritual power to forcibly break the wishing tree open.
Suddenly, the light in one of the houses in the village came on.
Everyone couldn't help but look over.
Bai Xi also looked over.
A young woman in a wheelchair was pushed out by a villager.
The woman was very thin, with delicate features and a pale complexion, as if she had never seen the sun before.
The person who pushed her was a villager named Amu who had previously received Bai Xi and the others.
When the old village chief saw the girl appear, he quickly went over and stood beside her.
The other villagers outside were surprised by the woman's sudden appearance, but quickly regained their indifferent expressions.
The woman looked at Bai Xi. "Are you looking for them?"
Bai Xi walked over and said, "Mm."
The woman sized up Bai Xi in front of her. "Do you know where they are?"
Bai Xi said, "If I'm not mistaken, they should be under the wishing tree."
The woman remained silent upon hearing this.
The tourists were like, "???"
What are they saying?
Could it be that someone is really hiding under the wishing tree?
Everyone's eyes turned to the wishing tree without prior arrangement.
The tourists noticed that the old village chief's expression turned serious after the woman appeared.
He stood behind the woman, who seemed to be the leader here.
The bespectacled man looked at her. "Who are you?"
The woman said, "I am the witch here."
Upon hearing this, the tourists looked at each other in bewilderment.
What exactly is a wizard?
Is that what they meant by the wizard?
The big man immediately came over.
He said angrily, "You're the wizard here, right? So you used witchcraft to kill those two people, didn't you!"
Upon hearing this, all the tourists turned their attention to the woman.
"Did you kill those two people?"
Why did you kill them both?
"What is your purpose in imprisoning us here?"
The tourists became agitated and angry because of a single sentence uttered by the burly man.
The woman closed her eyes. "I didn't kill them."
"If you didn't kill them, who else could have? Only you have the ability. Their deaths were so bizarre and terrifying; it's not something an ordinary person could do."
The woman opened her eyes and looked at the tourists in front of her. Because of their anger, black energy was constantly surging up from their bodies.
Normally, they wouldn't be so aggressive, but tonight...
The woman didn't argue; she let all the tourists hurl their profanities at her.
At this moment, Bai Xi suddenly spoke up, "You were threatened by them, weren't you?"
As soon as she finished speaking, all the villagers, including the woman, looked at her.
The woman looked at the beautiful girl in front of her, hesitant to speak.
Bai Xi stared into her eyes, "You dare not say it."
The woman was somewhat surprised that the other party had seen through her at a glance.
She gave a bitter smile. "No one can save us, no one can."
The tourists stared at what the two men were saying, wondering why they couldn't understand a word they were saying.
Ye Guoliang looked at the woman and said, "Your silence means that even though you didn't kill those two people, you still bear some responsibility, right?"
"Although you didn't kill them yourself, the people who threatened you lured us here so that they could wipe us out in one fell swoop, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, all the tourists gasped in surprise.
"Does this village want our lives?"
"Why?"
What exactly do they want to do?
Panic gripped the crowd. They thought of the two dead tourists and didn't want to suffer the same fate.
"No! I want to go home! I want to come back!" someone shouted again.
Rong Huan and the others looked at Bai Xi. They didn't want to die here either; they were still so young.
Bai Xi: "You won't die."
"Who do you think you are? Just because you say you won't die doesn't mean you won't die."
None of the tourists believed her.
The girl in front of them was too young; what ability could she possibly have to save them?
Bai Xi said, "They will die because their deaths are not worth regretting."
The tourists paused for a moment.
The old woman said disapprovingly, "Young lady, you can't say that. What do you mean by 'death is not a pity'? This is a perfectly healthy human life!"
Bai Xi, "Do you still remember the wishes you made?"
The tourists had another meal.
"What does this have to do with us making wishes?"
Bai Xi: "The two of them lost their lives because of making a wish."
The tourists were stunned.
"What? They died because of making wishes? But we all made wishes, so wouldn't we all die?"
The old woman said, "Young lady, there's a contradiction in what you're saying. You said they died because of making wishes, but we've all made wishes, yet you also say we won't die."
"Yes, are you deliberately creating panic?"
"And what does this have to do with making a wish?"
The tourists' brains were now like mush; from the moment this girl appeared, they couldn't understand a word she was saying.
