Han Yi roughly understood, although the boss was not to blame for this incident at all, it made him feel very self-blaming, and felt that these people went to Zhiyun Village to have something to do with him.

However, Han Yi also understood why he was here, it should be that the police couldn't solve it, so he sent a so-called "superpower" like himself to investigate the whole story.

"Boss, has anything strange happened to this Cloud Village before", the cutter took the hot noodles and asked curiously.

Hearing the cutter's question, the boss couldn't help but start to think of the topic that several young people from Zhiyun Village had talked about when they were eating in his restaurant before.

"I've heard that something strange happened in their village recently, and it seems to be related to a well."

The cutter, who had wanted to continue moving the chopsticks, suddenly stopped, and his curiosity was instantly aroused.

"I heard that the well used to be the lifeblood of the village, but now the living conditions are different, and there is running water. The well was deserted, but something strange seemed to have happened recently, and there was a period of black smoke in the well every day, which frightened them at first, but they couldn't find out why, and finally they got used to it, and they didn't take it seriously after that. โ€

Hearing this, Han Yi's heart moved, after all, this incident happened before the change in Zhiyun Village, and it might really have something to do with the unprovoked disappearance of personnel.

"That's all I can tell you, don't let your curiosity kill you, that place is no joke right now."

The boss saw that the cutter on the side was about to move, and couldn't help but persuade him again.

"Hah! Boss, don't worry, we definitely won't go, we love our lives! โ€

The cutter said happily, looking at ease.

"Then boss, how should I get to Zhiyun Village?"

Looking at the cutter who promised not to go, the boss just breathed a sigh of relief, then his eyes widened, and then he looked at the cutter angrily and said:

"Didn't you say you promised not to go?"

The cutter smiled: "Boss, let's ask...... Just ask, I'm definitely not going."

"No..... I won't tell you, you're joking with your own lives, I absolutely don't agree", the boss said righteously, apparently believing that both men were dead people who wanted to go on an expedition.

Seeing the resolute boss, the cutter's eyes widened, he glanced at Han Yi, as if asking him if he wanted to use violence, although he also knew that the boss was for their good, but if they didn't do the main quest, they would die faster.

"Boss, let's tell you the truth, we were specially sent to investigate Zhiyun Village, you have seen my strength, this is our task, and I hope the boss will make it convenient."

The boss was stunned for a moment, and then immediately shook his head: "Don't think I'm easy to deceive when I'm old, you are good, you may only be a mortal body, and you won't be able to come back if you go." โ€

Looking at the resolute boss cutter, he wanted to do it on the spot, but was pressed back by Han Yi, and then Han Yi stood up, clenched his fists, and slammed into the ground, with a loud bang, except for the cutter, everyone else present froze in place.

I saw an inch of fist marks appear on the ground, and the ground around the fist marks was shattered like spider webs, which looked very shocking.

"Boss, no problem, right?"

The boss nodded sloppily, obviously not recovering from the moment just now.

"Boss, we rushed there naturally because we were confident that we could come back safely, and we wouldn't risk our lives, so don't worry."

The boss glanced at the fist prints on the ground again, then turned his gaze to Han Yi and nodded with a tangled expression:

"Hey~ Okay, I hope you can come back safely."

"This cloud village is at the foot of the mountain, you just need to walk along the desert road for about 5 kilometers, and then cross a high slope, walk through a small forest to arrive, you will naturally know there, they have stepped out of a trail in front of the woods, it is easy to recognize"

"Actually, you don't ask me, as long as you walk along the desert road, you can find Zhiyun Village."

The cutter smiled slightly: "Thank you, boss~ I have to trouble you for one night tonight."

The boss shook his head helplessly: "Accommodation is a trivial matter, anyway, there are spare rooms."

Then the two of them hastily ate some again, and after filling their stomachs, they followed the boss upstairs, arranged a room for each and went to sleep.

Night

"Tick Tick ~ Tick Tick ~ Tick"

The sound of water dripping on the ground woke Han Yi from his sleep, and he thought it was just the boss who might have forgotten to turn off the water source.

However, this voice seemed to be getting louder and louder, which couldn't help but make him wary, and then he began to listen intently.

"Tick Tick ~ Tick Tick ~ Tick"

The sound is loud, but the flow of water does not change, because the change in the flow of water affects the frequency of the drip, which can still be heard.

Suddenly, a footstep appeared at the top of the stairs, and this footstep was constantly approaching the room where Han Yi was.

This made Han Yi feel that something was wrong, and he immediately flashed behind the door, ready to attack at any time.

"Squeak~"

There was a crisp sound from the wooden door, and a dark figure slowly poked its head in, as if observing the situation inside.

"Hey!"

After seeing clearly who this person was, Han Yi, who was hiding behind the door, said angrily.

"Ahh

The cutter couldn't help but let out an exclamation, he just wanted to see if Han Yi had slept or not, but he didn't expect to put his head in just now.

There was a voice behind his head, which almost startled him, if he hadn't reacted to Han Yi, he would have swung it with a backhand stab.

"What are you doing here at night!"

The cutter turned on the incandescent light in the room, and then sat down on Han Yi's bed: "Didn't you hear the sound of dripping?" โ€

Han Yi frowned: "What is the reason?" โ€

"I just went down to look and looked everywhere, and when I was in the room, I felt that this sound was coming from downstairs, but when I got downstairs, I felt that this sound was coming from upstairs.

I walked back and forth twice before I finally felt that something was wrong, and the sound seemed to be everywhere. โ€

"Then I wanted to come to you, and I was almost taken aback by you bastard," said the cutter's eyes, full of resentment.

"Can the two of us hear that? It stands to reason that the boss should have been woken up by the sound of water droplets, didn't they hear it? โ€

The cutter shook his head: "I don't know, maybe they're not as sensitive as us, and when they wake up, they just think there's a water leak, maybe they don't care."

Han Yi nodded: "Maybe it's really just a leak, maybe any pipe in the hotel was bitten by rats, ask the boss tomorrow, go back to sleep." โ€

The cutter yawned, he was busy with the last task, and he hadn't rested until now, and besides, his physical strength attribute itself was the weakest point, hearing Han Yi say this, he finally nodded and returned to the room.

After the cutter left, Han Yi also turned off the light in the room, and then lay back on the bed, listening to the sound of water droplets with a very stable frequency, he inexplicably had a bad premonition.

But he just hoped it was a delusion, and then closed his eyes again, this time not daring to fall into a deep sleep again, he had to be a little vigilant.

But soon he sensed that something was wrong, and he was still awakened by the droplets, this time not the sound, but the real droplets falling on his face.
