After walking out of the nest of zongzi, Jiang Yuechu felt his scalp tingling when looking at the large corpse-raising ground in front of him.

However, in order to find Mingyue Village as quickly as possible, the three of them did not waste any time. Following Ouyang Jun's guidance with the compass, they quickly passed through the corpse-raising ground.

After walking out of the corpse-raising ground, Jiang Yuechu was about to take out the map to compare the surrounding situation. However, at this moment, Ouyang Jun pointed to a place not far away with his sharp eyes.

"Look over there, that should be Mingyue Village."

Following Ouyang Jun's line of sight, they saw the place not far from them.

Although there was some smoke and clouds there, they could still vaguely see the outline of the village.

Thinking that they were now within the scope of Mingyue Village, and there was only one such village nearby, Jiang Yuechu nodded affirmatively.

"That should be it. Let's go and take a look first."

As they were talking, the three of them were already walking towards the village.

From their perspective, the village not far away was shrouded in smoke, looking vague and unreal, as if it were in a fairyland and very mysterious.

In addition, Mingyue Village was the place pointed out by the mysterious man and his second uncle, so Jiang Yuechu felt that this place was more and more strange.

When they arrived at the entrance of the village and were about to go in, suddenly, a number of villagers came out from that side.

The villagers seemed to have seen the three of them, and just as they were about to step into the village, the villagers suddenly stopped them outside the village, blocking their way into the village.

Seeing the villagers in front of him looking unfriendly and as if they did not welcome them in, Jiang Yuechu felt that these people were somewhat xenophobic.

But in order to find out these things, the three of them looked at each other and immediately began to think of ways to stay here.

"Fellow villagers, we are just passing by here. We have finished all the dry food we brought with us. We want to go in and ask for a drink of water and a meal. We will leave after we have a rest. Can you please give us a favor?"

Faced with Jiang Yuechu's words, the villagers remained unmoved, as if they were determined not to let them in.

This method didn't work, and A Yan next to him took a step forward at this time, and his voice sounded very weak.

"I hope you guys can really help me. I was injured when I passed by just now. I can only rest for a day or two. I promise that I will leave here as soon as I am fully recovered."

Jiang Yuchu didn't expect that A Yan could pretend to be sick so conspicuously. Even when she looked over, she almost thought that A Yan was really unwell.

The leading villager looked at the three of them and seemed a little skeptical, but finally agreed and let them in.

"Okay, since you're just stopping here to rest for a while, we'll let you in, but you also have to remember what you just said. Once you've rested enough, leave immediately. We don't welcome outsiders here!"

Someone relaxed, and the other villagers didn't seem to have any other objections. Jiang Yuechu knew that they could stay here for the time being.

Following the villagers into the village, the three of them temporarily stayed in a farmhouse.

Although A Yan was just pretending to be sick, he was indeed a little weak, so after they settled down, they planned to have a good rest first, and then quietly come out to find out the news when it was late at night and everyone was asleep.

Jiang Yuechu always felt that although these villagers were xenophobic, their expressions were very strange, as if they were hiding some secrets, which was why they appeared very hostile.

Jiang Yuchu told them both what she was thinking, but she didn't expect that Ouyang Jun had the same idea as her.

"I came here to look for treasure. These villagers are xenophobic. I think something is wrong here. Let's go out and take a look at night. Maybe we can find some useful information."

Ah Yan, who was standing by, certainly had no objection. After the three of them discussed it with each other, they went to rest.

It was already noon when they rested. They were woken up by the family before they had slept for long. After having dinner together at their home, they returned to their room to rest.

After all, they cannot arouse the suspicion of these villagers, so they try not to go out if possible, which can also reduce the villagers' vigilance towards them.

Anyway, there are strange things everywhere in this village, so she can't take it lightly.

After dinner, they continued to rest, and when they woke up, it was already evening.

Because the village is very remote and dilapidated, the villagers don't seem to have any other entertainment activities. After having dinner together in the evening, they all go to rest.

Naturally, the three of them returned to their room after dinner and waited quietly for the night to fall.

When it was completely dark and all the villagers returned to their rooms to rest, the three of them quietly left the farmer's house and searched for clues everywhere in the village.

The village did look very dilapidated. If they really looked for clues in the village, they would not find anything useful. So they unanimously decided to go to the back of the village to see what the situation was.

Just when they were about to leave the village, the village chief's voice came from a room next to them.

And the light was still on. This was the only room with light on in the whole village, which immediately attracted Jiang Yuechu's attention. She quickly pulled Ouyang Jun and A Yan beside her and pointed to the room with the light on.

"Someone seems to be whispering in the room. Could it be related to the secret of this village?"

As soon as Jiang Yuechu finished speaking, Ouyang Jun thought about it and made a decisive decision: "Let's go and listen to what they have to say."

After all, every villager in these villages behaved in a strange way, so the three of them unanimously decided that someone must be discussing something unspeakable in the room, so they hid at the windows one by one, trying to listen to what they were saying.

"These people suddenly appeared in our village. It seems that the secret of our village can no longer be kept." As soon as the village chief in the room said this, their expressions suddenly froze.

I didn't expect that there were so many secrets in this village.
