Chapter 993: The Village Chief's Path to Seeking Immortals
If you don't speak, you just acquiesce.
The village chief kept his head down, his face hidden in the darkness.
I couldn't see his face clearly, but I could still feel that he was hostile to us right now.
I, Jin Shengshui, Ji Yansheng, and even the Niu Master Bookkeeper all raised their vigilance to prevent the village chief from suddenly breaking out and hurting people.
In fact, it stands to reason that with the strength of the village chief, one Jin Shengshui is enough.
However, for the sake of prudence, we still try to overestimate the strength of the village chief and take it seriously.
The village chief sighed, suddenly raised his head, looked at me, and said, "So, you are planning to kill me?"
I smiled and said, "What? You're not going to rebel?"
The village chief sat down on the ground and said faintly, "Resistance? What am I going to resist?"
"You are all masters of masters, and I am just a halfway monk. What am I going to do against you?"
"If you want to kill or chop, just take it lightly, and I don't bother to resist. You can't resist it."
Jin Shengshui said, "Lao Guan, did we say we were going to kill you?"
"Since we met you, we have treated each other with sincerity."
The village chief pointed to his soul and said, "Is this treating each other with sincerity? When you knew me, I was still alive, right?"
"Because of your sincerity, I have become a dead man."
"Is this called treating each other with sincerity?"
Jin Shengshui said a little unpleasantly, "Look at you, why do you still hold grudges?"
Village Chief: "Hehe......"
Jin Shengshui said: "If we ask something, you can answer it, let's both be more sincere and less routine, can I kill you?"
"Last time, I beat you to death because you refused to tell the truth."
"It stands to reason that you'll have to learn a lesson this time."
"But I never thought that you would have to play with us?"
"Lao Guan, I advise you not to play tricks with us. Say whatever you want."
The village chief looked at us for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll admit it. I did dig this passage."
I asked, "And then?"
The village chief said, "At that time, I took with me seven strong laborers from the village. After a month of digging, I finally dug up the passage."
"As you guessed, I dug this passage to see if I could find any trace of Ye Xiu."
"If Ye Xiu has left any cultivation secrets, we can study them."
"But...... When we dug through the tunnel, we realized that it wasn't like that at all."
"We're in this village, too. But that time was different from this time."
"Last time we didn't see anyone, not any people from the underworld or any from the yang."
Jin Shengshui said, "Could it be that because you are alive, you can't see the underworld and ghosts?"
The village chief shook his head and said categorically, "Impossible."
"The seven people I brought with me have been carefully selected."
"One of these seven people had a fever when he was a child and burned out his brain. He will see ghosts."
"But we asked him many times, and he said no one."
"We walked around the ruins several times, trying to find Ye Shu, but we couldn't find it."
"But when we were about to go out, we found that we couldn't get out."
"Whichever way we go, we'll come back here, and we've met a ghost hitting the wall."
The old horse said faintly beside him, "The ghosts here are very powerful at hitting the wall."
"Don't talk about you ordinary people, even if a cultivator comes, you have to get dizzy."
The village chief sighed and said, "Who says it's not."
"At that time, we really tried all kinds of methods, but we just couldn't get out."
「
Then we forced the fool to lead the way, and at last drove him crazy, and he ran away screaming."
"We searched the ruins for a long time, but we never found a fool."
"Some people say that maybe the fool found his way and ran away on his own."
"Some people say that there must be something dirty in this, and the fool has eaten it."
"Anyway, there's everything you want."
"Later, we started hallucinating."
"In a trance, we returned to our old village."
"That's where we lived before we moved. It's poor, it's poor."
"Reason tells us that this place has nothing to do with where we used to live."
"But we've seen a lot of things from the past in the ruins."
"Then I called the whole group and said it couldn't be like this. The dirty stuff here must be hurting us, and we can't fall into his trap."
"If you want to get out of here, you have to find another way, you have to be calm."
"I'm the village chief, and what I say still carries a lot of weight. And I was also the initiator of this operation."
"And when I said that, we all sat down."
"Everyone started to analyze, what should be done next."
"After the analysis, everyone said that this ghost hit the wall, and it is very likely that Ye Xiu did it."
"He wants to practice here, and he doesn't want people to disturb him, so he has set up a ghost wall here."
"I thought it was impossible, we were all one village. If he is related to him, he is embarrassed to hurt anyone."
"But the people under me have a point."
"Noshu is probably in retreat right now. He had no idea who the intruder was."
"If we want to get out alive, we'll have to find a way."
"For example...... We have to say something, we have to let Ye Xiu know that it's relatives from the same village and clan."
