Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Li Yidao stared at Zhang Goudan without saying a word, a hint of a smile playing on his lips.
He had only said he could save him, but there were conditions for the exchange.
Whether he would truly save him depended on Zhang Goudan’s sincerity.
Seeing Li Yidao’s silence, Zhang Goudan gritted his teeth once again.
Subconsciously, he looked in the direction of the village entrance.
In the end, the hope of survival overcame everything else.
He struggled to sit up.
“Fine! I’ll tell you everything I know,” Zhang Goudan said, taking a deep breath before continuing, “But you have to promise that as soon as I finish telling you what you want to know, you will save me. “Otherwise, I won’t spare you even in death!”
Li Yidao smiled slightly.
“As long as you don’t hide anything and tell me everything, I promise to save you.”
“But… if you try to deceive me with lies…” Li Yidao’s voice trailed off, and a hint of cruelty appeared in his eyes. “Well, I might not let you die so quickly.” These words made Zhang Goudan shiver involuntarily.
“Alright! I’ll tell you everything I know,” Zhang Goudan said, taking a deep breath, preparing to speak.
However, at that moment, a sudden gust of cold wind blew through.Please visit fr𝐞𝐞wn.𝒸o𝔪 website to read fastest update
Li Yidao felt a bone-chilling cold sensation and instinctively turned to look at the mourning hall’s location.
To his surprise, Zhang Ermao’s ghostly figure appeared to come to life, completely different from the previous blank expression.
The scarecrow behind him had an even more bizarre expression. Li Yidao could sense, or perhaps see, the scarecrow tilting its head as if confirming the fact that he could see it.
Countless strands of threads wrapped around Zhang Ermao’s ghostly form began extending, with the extra threads drifting in the direction of the village entrance.
Li Yidao had a foreboding feeling in his heart.
He no longer paid attention to what was happening inside the mourning hall but turned to Zhang Goudan.
“Quickly, tell me what you know! If you do, I’ll help you extend your life,” Li Yidao demanded.
However, Zhang Goudan, perhaps due to the earlier chilling wind, was now completely overtaken by fear.
His will to survive had seemingly vanished, and he had entered a state of shock.
Seeing this, Li Yidao’s heart sank. The breakthrough he had just achieved appeared to be in vain.
“Smack!” Li Yidao suddenly slapped Zhang Goudan across the face.
The temporary pain seemed to jolt Zhang Goudan back to his senses, but the fear still lingered.
“Tell me what you know, and I can save you now. Otherwise, you can wait for death on your own!”
Li Yidao made one final effort.
Watching the old man’s back, Li Yidao became even more puzzled.
What was going on in this village?
Why were there so many strange people?
First, they wanted him to leave, and now they were giving him a job.
Not only that, as Li Yidao turned around again, he found that Zhang Ermao’s ghostly figure in the mourning hall had disappeared!
The ghostly scarecrow figure that had trapped him was also gone!
Now, the only things remaining in the entire Zhang family courtyard were Zhang Goudan’s body and the already placed coffin containing Zhang Ermao’s body.
The only other presence was the scarecrow lying on the ground.
Li Yidao silently absorbed the eerie atmosphere in the courtyard as he contemplated the information Zhang Goudan had shared.
Their organization truly seemed mysterious!
Worshipping different “deities”?
And gaining corresponding powers by worshipping these “deities”?
Li Yidao couldn’t believe it!
In this world, there were no such things as deities!
So, there must be something he couldn’t fathom within all this…
After about half an hour, a group of people entered the Zhang family courtyard in silence.
Their ages ranged from fifty to seventy.
Several elderly individuals, including the one who had spoken to Li Yidao earlier, stood in the same spot near the entrance.
They gazed into the courtyard, their expressions devoid of joy or sorrow, impossible to read.
Moreover, they all made it clear that they were staying outside the gate!
Not only that, the people who entered skillfully walked into one of the rooms, lifted a coffin, placed Zhang Goudan’s body into it with remarkable proficiency, and then closed the coffin.
Every step, from handling the corpse to closing the coffin, was executed flawlessly, as if they had done it countless times before.
Li Yidao watched all of this unfold in silence without saying a word.
The more he observed their actions, the more unsettled he felt.
What kind of place was this village?
Why were all the villagers so peculiar?
Not only did they show no concern for Zhang Goudan’s death, but everything they did was performed with incredible efficiency, as if it were routine.
The more Li Yidao saw, the more bewildered he became.
One thing was certain. This village had issues.
Not only that, but these issues were significant!
