Or maybe she did it during the day, which we don't know.

After leaving the old lady's house, we seemed to be aimlessly walking along the small path. We originally wanted to catch a turtle in a jar, but we didn't expect such a result.

”I didn't expect her to be so smart. Where should we go now?”

The five men were the most important, and the rest were insignificant people, but I suddenly wanted someone very important.

He instantly stopped and shouted, ”Actually, I think the biggest culprit is still the village chief! ”It's the village chief who lied to their Abba!”

”Hey, not only did you say such an important clue late, but you even said it so loudly. Do you think that we didn't look miserable enough?”

Xu Zizai covered my mouth with his hands and looked around vigilantly, as if someone was about to jump out.

The night was still dark, and he could still hear the occasional chirping of insects. It didn't seem like anyone would come out at all.

But even so, Xu Zizai didn't have any intention of relaxing. He only slowly let go of my mouth and whispered, ”I have this feeling that someone is following us and doing things with caution.”

I nodded slowly and followed behind them.

The Village Head's house was a little different from what we had imagined, but it had a lot of meaning to it.

The person who opened the door was still an old lady. However, this time, the old lady seemed to be much gentler and her manners were much better as well.

Xiao Hong had already subconsciously hid behind me, so I was the only one who came forward to converse with her.

”Hello, we are looking for the Village Chief.”

The old lady's gaze gently fell on us. She didn't seem aggressive at all. She even had a hint of a smile on her face.

”Looking for my wife? He's inside, I'll take you in! It's windy outside, I'll go get you some hot tea later. You people in the city probably aren't used to the weather here. ”

The old lady opened the door and let us in. She walked alone in front of us, her back looking very elegant, very different from any villagers she had ever met.

When they reached the second floor, the old lady stopped walking for a long time. ”My wife is at the very end of the hall. You can go directly over there. I'll get you some hot tea first.”

After saying that, without waiting for us to react, he turned around and walked down the stairs.

The second floor was also very strange. It was a long and narrow corridor, and if it wasn't for the dim light, it would have been quite scary.

”Tell me, is the Village Chief alright?” ”Why do you live in such a place? Feng Shui obviously has a problem. A man like me would feel a chill on his body.”

Xu Zizai's voice was not loud, but it was not soft either. The moment he opened his mouth, the voice spread out continuously along the corridor, making it even more terrifying.

”Can you shut your mouth!”

I glared at him before walking forward. This was already our final destination. If there wasn't any response from the village head, then we would really have to hold on to the river.

Xiao Hong was very considerate as she walked by my side, causing me to feel a little relieved. When we reach the end, we stopped.

It was all because of that weird voice.
