Chapter 849 - Fishing Village? Ghost Town? (2/2)
“Wake up! We’re almost there!”
Bai Xiaofei, who unknowingly fell asleep, was mercilessly shaken awake by Tan Xin. Coming up to the deck and watching the sun slowly setting in the west, he also started to have expectations.
This sunset is different from usual…
In the middle of an open plains, a wide and long river ran across, reflecting the afterglow of the setting sun. Occasionally, one or two big fish leaped out, and the splash they created was like dancing flames.
Peace, this was the only thing Bai Xiaofei was feeling.
“I heard it’s more beautiful to see the sunset from below! Let’s hurry!”
With that, Tan Xin directly stowed the ship, causing the two to start falling.
“Don’t rush to take control. Feel the wind around you.”
Tan Xin’s voice echoed in Bai Xiaofei’s mind. Smiling, he flew to Tan Xin’s side and held her hand.
“You think too much. I was just scared that you forgot to fly again,” he whispered in her ear.
Tan Xin laughed in amusement. Humph, who told you I cared!
As the two ended their flight with a smooth landing, the fishing village mentioned earlier also appeared in sight. However, the atmosphere seemed wrong…
“Are you sure this is the place? According to what you said, there should be a lot of people…” Bai Xiaofei scanned the deserted area, unable to feel the supposedly lively atmosphere at all. How would he experience life and appreciate customs like this?
“How can I be wrong?! Maybe they’ve all gone to rest! Let’s go in!” Tan Xin struggled, but no matter how one looked at it, it was not the time of day to rest yet…
Indeed, Tan Xin’s struggle was proved to be in vain. The two walked around the entire village without seeing a single person. Every house was covered in dust and looked like it had not been used in at least several months.
“Do you feel something strange?” Bai Xiaofei frowned.
“A little, but I can’t quite put my finger on it.” Tan Xin’s reaction was similar to Bai Xiaofei’s. After all, she did not specialize in the sixth sense either.
“Resentment, the resentment here is too strong.” Realizing something, Bai Xiaofei took out a black bead. Suddenly, thin black threads appeared in the air and slowly flowed into the bead.
“This is…?” Tan Xin shuddered as she looked at the bead, from which she felt tremendous pressure.
“This little thing can absorb the grievances around it. It seems that the people here did leave, but were killed by cruel means,” Bai Xiaofei explained as his brows met.
Someone slaughtered an entire village without leaving a body or a trace of blood. They were obviously extremely careful.
“Looks like we got ‘lucky’ again, running across another interesting matter!” With a sneer, Bai Xiaofei looked around.
There had to be clues left behind!
