“Brother Dao? What’s wrong?” Seeing Li Yidao remain silent for a while, Zhang Goudan attempted to speak, his eyes filled with surprise and confusion.
Why would Brother Dao have such a strong reaction?
Li Yidao had now regained his composure.
He noticed that the ghostly image of Miner Ermao in front of him was entangled by countless thin threads.
Not only that, there was also the ghostly image of a scarecrow behind him.
This scarecrow’s appearance was identical to the one at the village entrance.
As for the scarecrow’s gaze… It seemed to be observing him as well?
Li Yidao’s expression returned to a calm state.
He now knew there was a problem with this situation, but the specifics of the problem were unclear.
He would have to proceed step by step to find out.
Li Yidao intentionally shifted his gaze away from the ghostly image of Miner Ermao in front of him, attempting to hide the fact that he could see the situation with these entities.
If possible, he wanted to lower their guard, whether it was the scarecrow entities or the organization behind them.
It was best to keep them underestimating him until he had gathered more information.
He had experimented with using the Blade of Death earlier, but unfortunately, the ability had no effect on the ghostly images he was currently observing.
Only the scarecrows in the corners could be affected by the Blade of Death, with a lifespan consumption of one year.
This indirectly confirmed that these scarecrows were not the main reason for the crisis he was facing.
So, Li Yidao was not in a hurry.
He did not respond to Zhang Goudan and instead slowly approached Miner Ermao’s body.
As a bone-chilling cold pierced deep into his bones, Li Yidao couldn’t help but shiver.
Indeed, it was very cold. Moreover, Miner Ermao’s body was exceptionally well-preserved, adorned in funeral attire, with impeccable grooming, which was either done by Zhang Goudan himself or by someone he had hired.
Everything seemed to be in order, at least for now.
“Tomorrow, for the burial, do you have pallbearers?” Li Yidao observed for a while, then turned to Zhang Goudan.Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update
Zhang Goudan quickly replied, “Yes, several uncles from the village specifically rushed back, and the grave’s location has been chosen.”
“We originally planned to bury him yesterday, but… with this… that’s why…”
Zhang Goudan hesitated in his speech, but Li Yidao understood what he was trying to convey.
It was likely because of the strange dream he had described earlier that Zhang Goudan sought Li Yidao’s help, leading to the current situation.
Li Yidao didn’t say anything, just nodded.
That wouldn’t be confidence but foolishness.
Yet, he maintained the appearance of being asleep.
At least he needed to give the other party a chance to make a move.
Only when the other party felt that everything was under control would they reveal their true intentions.
Tonight… was destined to be a stormy night.
In Cherry Blossom Country, in the room where the elder had communicated with the Cherry Blossom Grim Reaper earlier, two individuals dressed in special attire now stood before the elder.
Well, not exactly.
They were standing before the elder’s lifeless body.
As they looked into the elder’s lifeless eyes, both of their expressions were particularly solemn.
After a while, one of them spoke with a hint of regret, “I never expected Brother Dao to have such capabilities. He even managed to bring down this old man.”
The other person chimed in, “Indeed. You and I wouldn’t have been able to withstand this curse without any preparations.”
“What’s surprising is that he mentioned to me before his actions that this curse would cost a substitute’s life, but I never thought that both of them would die.” Surprisingly, the speaker was a woman.
“Next, we’ll await news from Furuhashi. If he fails as well…” A man spoke, and his gaze turned serious as he spoke.
The woman took over, “If Furuhashi also fails… then we’ll have to go there ourselves. But if Geqiao’s enigmatic Scarecrow Technique also fails, our chances of success when we go there…”
At this moment, a hint of helplessness flashed in the woman’s eyes.
The meaning was already conveyed quite clearly.
If the person she referred to as Furuhashi also failed at this point, their journey would likely fail.
The possibility of success was exceedingly slim.
However…
They still had to go.
They could die in the mission.
But they absolutely couldn’t refuse to carry out their task.
This was the rule of their organization.
If they refused… what awaited them would be something more terrifying than death.
This was something they couldn’t endure or bear.
After all, in this world, there were many occasions when death wasn’t the frightening part.
There were many things scarier than death.
This was why some people would rather face death than continue to face life.
Each self-termination required immense courage.
If it weren’t for encountering something more terrifying than death, who would willingly end their own life?
