The footage on the phone continued to play, showing the wandering villagers actively evading Lin Shuai Nan.
Upon seeing this, Shan Han Yi’s eyes nearly popped out of his head.
“How is this possible? These walking dead should be going around people, how could they… What is so unusual about this kid?”
The two men below also shook their heads with bitter smiles.
“We don’t know!”
“Young Master, we were also stunned at the time. This kid is too strange. Because the distance was too far, we couldn’t hear what they were saying!” the subordinate said helplessly.
Hearing this, Shan Han Yi seemed to realize his gaffe and quickly put away his phone.
“Hmph, I must find out what’s going on. You all keep a close eye on this mentally disturbed fellow!”
With that, Shan Han Yi returned to his tent with his phone.
Clearly, he intended to continue researching what was happening here.
However, as dawn broke, Shan Han Yi emerged with dark circles under his eyes, still utterly bewildered, muttering, “Damn it, what is going on with this kid? Why are those monsters avoiding him?”
Shan Han Yi was an obsessive. He couldn’t help but want to go and ask Lin Shuai Nan directly what was happening.
But he eventually suppressed this thought.
Given Shan Han Yi’s relationship with Ling Feng, they would never be able to get along.
“Damn it, I thought the Hall Master had already killed Ling Feng, but I didn’t expect this bastard to bring Ji Yun Yue and a few others along, and he’s even become the leader of this group. If they resolve this matter first, it will be trouble!”
Shan Han Yi thought with immense resentment, his eyes growing increasingly venomous and sinister.
After a while, he snapped back from his previous thoughts and said sinisterly, “No, I must do something…”
At the front of the dilapidated temple in the village!
Many villagers had gathered here early in the morning.
However, they were now normal villagers.
Last night, these villagers, who were like walking dead, returned to their homes after the rooster crowed and went to sleep, as if nothing had happened!
Then, as soon as it was light, villagers started getting up and about.
But without exception, everyone had a look of exhaustion on their faces, appearing extremely listless!
This was completely understandable. No matter who it was, wandering around the village all night would cause immense physical exertion, and the body couldn’t withstand it!
Moreover, this situation had likely been ongoing for a long time.
Some of these people could barely stand and were being supported by others.
“Who are you people? Why are you in our mountain god temple?”
Leading them was an old man with white hair, clearly a highly respected figure among the villagers. He also looked exhausted, leaning on a cane, and like everyone else around him, he eyed Ling Feng and his group with extreme caution.
“That’s right! Who are you people? Is the mountain god temple a place you can enter?”
“Get out quickly!”
“Get out, get out, you outsiders are the ones who brought these strange things to our village!”
The surrounding villagers erupted, accusing Ling Feng and his group, and some even threw rotten eggs towards them.
Ling Feng could completely ignore these people.
But Lin Shuai Nan was getting annoyed. He had been sleeping soundly, only to be woken up by these people, and then have rotten eggs thrown at him. Lin Shuai Nan’s morning temper flared up.
Bang!
Taking a step forward, Lin Shuai Nan, holding his red-tasseled spear, precisely caught a rotten egg with his other hand!
“Stop!”
A stern, cold shout rang out, causing all the villagers to freeze.
Splat!
Lin Shuai Nan, perhaps to show off, exerted force with his hand, and the rotten egg shattered.
But then a foul odor clung to his hand, refusing to dissipate!
This disgusted Lin Shuai Nan immensely. His attempt to look cool instantly failed, and he kept flinging the stinky thing on his hand, then turned to Ling Feng and asked, “Big Brother, do you have any paper?”
Ling Feng completely ignored him!
It was Guan Ya who kindly pulled out a roll of toilet paper and offered it to Lin Shuai Nan, “Brother Shuai Nan, wipe your hands…”
And while Lin Shuai Nan was wiping his hands.
Ling Feng spoke solemnly, “It seems you don’t remember what happened last night!”
“What happened? What happened last night?”
Just as Ling Feng had predicted, these people were indeed amnesiac, completely forgetting what had happened the previous night.
However, this did not stop Ling Feng from reminding them.
He pointed to the ground near the feet of the white-haired elder.
“Don’t you notice that your cane is severely worn, and your shoes are also broken? This kind of situation must have happened quite often recently, right?”
Everyone looked at the white-haired elder.
Seeing that everything was as Ling Feng had said, they couldn’t help but look at their own feet with some apprehension.
Their shoes were severely worn, and many pairs were broken. This had happened to everyone.
But they couldn’t remember how it had happened.
“Hmph, what does this have to do with you outsiders? Speak! Where exactly did you come from, and why are you occupying our mountain god temple? Do you know that this is where we pray for blessings, the most sacred and inviolable place in our village!”
The white-haired elder angrily slammed his cane.
The surrounding villagers also put on fierce expressions, clearly intending to hold Ling Feng and his group accountable.
“Pray for blessings? Is it related to the strange occurrences in your village?”
Ling Feng retorted!
Upon hearing this, everyone seemed to snap awake, their gazes towards Ling Feng becoming strangely flustered.
The white-haired elder pointed at Ling Feng and asked, “You, who exactly are you? Are the deaths in our village related to you?”
As the white-haired elder finished speaking, the sound of hurried footsteps suddenly came from the back of the crowd.
“Village Chief, Village Chief! Someone else has died, the dog, Gou Sheng, from Third Aunt’s house, died in his own well, and also Gou Dan, Gou Tui’er, Xiao Gou Zi… they’re all dead!”
This cry caused everyone to turn around!
Lin Shuai Nan couldn’t help but mutter, “Well, we’ve stumbled into a dog kennel!”
Ling Feng raised his hand and slapped the back of Lin Shuai Nan’s head, “Less nonsense!”
“The bodies, the bodies of those dead people have been brought over!” the mysterious girl suddenly exclaimed, pointing to the rear of the crowd.
