It is also engraved with strange runes.
Against the backdrop of the sky, it appeared mysterious and eerie.
The two pillars were connected by a huge wooden plaque with flamboyant characters on it, which were not Chinese characters at all, and no one could recognize a single one.
Yan Miao quickly glanced at the words on the wooden sign, secretly memorized them, and followed the crowd into the village.
"Excuse me, ma'am, is there any place to stay in the village?"
"Well, we came here as a group. We checked on our phones and it seems there are no guesthouses in the village, so we can only stay with the villagers."
“We’re not staying for free, we can pay you. Please name your price per night.”
Seeing someone by the roadside, Qi Feng happily went up to them to discuss things.
He was adept at these tasks, and it was common for him to seek lodging with local residents when exploring remote areas.
Even if the other party doesn't agree, it doesn't matter.
Be brave enough to try everything!
When we were exploring and had nowhere to stay, we even slept in caves!
Across from him was a middle-aged woman carrying a child on her back. She seemed approachable, so he decided to go up and discuss the accommodation issue.
To everyone's surprise, the woman turned around after hearing the sound, stared at them with a sinister look for a long time, and then left without saying a word...
Before leaving, I glanced back at them.
Chiffon felt uneasy looking at it!
.........
"Sister, this village is so strange. The sky is filled with smoke, and the villagers are so odd... Could the rumors outside be true?"
"Actually, a hundred-year-old monster lives in the village!"
Let alone chiffon cake, even Yan Zhao, who was prepared in advance, was starting to have second thoughts.
If he hadn't received Xingcuoyou's help, he wouldn't have come to this godforsaken place!
He's starting to regret it now. Why did he let that female ghost lead him to find the antelope grass?
Miaomiao has a map of the mall; if they spend a little more time, they can find the places where the spiritual herbs grow.
Now look what's happened, we have to come all the way to this godforsaken place to spend the night!
The way the villagers looked at him made them feel like they could tear him apart alive!
"Whether there's a powerful demon that's been around for a hundred years or not, we'll find out once we go in."
Yan Miao also found it strange.
Not only because of the middle-aged woman's behavior, but also because it was completely different from Xingcuoyou's story.
She said that her mother told her from a young age that people outside the village especially hated the Shi people, so the Shi people were filled with fear of people outside the village and everything outside the village!
But when the woman saw the strangers, carrying a child on their backs, she not only didn't run away, but instead stared at them with a sinister look...
It is obvious—
She wasn't afraid of outsiders at all!
Moreover, they harbor great hostility towards strangers they have never met before!
"Since staying at the villagers' homes isn't an option, let's go to the village chief's house!"
Yan Miao immediately made the decision.
There has to be someone in charge of the village, so she decided to go to the village chief's house. Besides, she was also very curious about what secrets were hidden in the village.
By getting in touch with the village chief, you might even gain some unexpected benefits.
"Sis! Are you crazy?"
“Every villager I randomly pick is incredibly strange. Going to the village chief’s house is like entering a dragon’s den or a tiger’s lair. I’m not going, I’m not going!”
Yan Zhao's face was full of rejection.
But Yan Miao grabbed his ear and kept dragging him forward.
It didn't matter that they couldn't find the village chief's house. A large group of outsiders entered the village, and someone came up to ask them questions, and seemed to have some ability to take charge.
That means it's definitely the village chief!
"Miaomiao, slow down! This village is very strange. Don't be reckless!"
Yao Lin'er quickly caught up with her and told her what she had found out.
"The rumors we've heard aren't just about the monster in the village."
"What else? Sister Lin, please tell me!"
Yan Zhao looked at her expectantly, hoping that her words would persuade her sister to turn back and not go to the village chief's house.
I'll just sleep at the entrance of the village!
The weather isn't freezing cold. We'll go into the village early tomorrow morning and return Xingcuoyou's soul to her home so she can reunite with her mother!
This doesn't count as breaking a promise.
"Rumor has it that there is a hundred-year-old monster in the Stone Clan village that specializes in absorbing people's spiritual intelligence and lives by eating human flesh!"
"Human intelligence can greatly enhance his cultivation, while human flesh can sustain his bodily functions. Therefore, every so often, the great demon has to kill a few living people. He first locks them up and keeps them in captivity, then devours them after absorbing all their spiritual intelligence!"
"All the villagers in the village are his followers and are controlled by him!"
"They are not human, they are ghosts! They are walking corpses!"
Yao Lin'er talked about the information she had collected.
"In other words, there isn't a single living person in the entire village; they're all the old monster's underlings!"
"How can that old monster live by eating human flesh and blood?"
Eating human flesh to survive? That's just ridiculous!
Yan Zhao was still scared and hadn't recovered.
Hearing Yao Lin'er's words, I couldn't help but laugh. This older sister really believed it without a doubt?
"Why is there no flesh and blood to eat?!"
"Aren't those missing outsiders just fresh flesh and blood?"
Everyone froze when Yan Miao said that.
Even Mu Zi, who had initially insisted on moving forward, stopped in her tracks, her teeth chattering. "Sister, shall we go back?"
