Wei Yuan put the mobile phone that claimed to have signal even in the mountain ditch back.

At this time, the couple who were preparing to post selfies on their WeChat Moments, as well as the girl holding a laptop, also noticed that the internet was disconnected in this place. The boy over there frowned and ran to argue with the person in charge of the village.

The middle-aged man repeatedly apologized, "I'm really sorry, everyone. The rain today was too heavy and sudden. As a result, some of the circuits were damaged. This place is too remote. Let's fix it as soon as possible in the next few days."

"Of course, our place also has some reputation in Quan City. How can we overcharge our guests? No, we can't..."

"We will definitely give a discount, one hundred percent."

The girl with the laptop did not speak.

The driver, who was an auxiliary member of the special action group, pulled Wei Yuan aside and sweat on his forehead.

"Master Wei, there's a problem. It seems that this place is not that village."

"The general location and the buildings here are the same, but the people are different."

He paused, lowered his voice, and said:

"We lost both signal and internet connection. We might have gone the wrong way."

Wei Yuan nodded slightly and looked around the village. There was obviously a problem here, but he couldn't figure out where the demonic and ghostly aura was. It seemed that it was not just simple lost souls and wild ghosts. They knew how to restrain their aura. The driver clenched his teeth and suggested that he should take the risk and go back the way they came to see if they could find a place with signal to send a message.

The driver got on the minivan and stepped on the accelerator, but soon he came back. The car was wet from the rain. Wei Yuan already knew when he came here that this place was far from the city and remote. Fortunately, there were mountains and water, and the scenery was beautiful, so they invested in a rural recuperation center.

Now the river had overflowed and flooded the road.

The water was not deep, but the driver's face turned pale. He shook his head.

Wei Yuan looked at the tires and the front part of the car, there were water marks on them. It was obvious that the driver had tried to drive through the water, but still retreated. The water marks on the car and tires were difficult to remove. Wei Yuan touched them and felt a burning sensation on his fingers, as if there was a lingering death energy.

The grudge on these water marks was strong, indicating that more than one person had died in the river.

Both of them had serious expressions. A man who was hunched over walked by and smiled:

"Is it flooding outside? Did the road get submerged?"

"It's better for you all to stay here for a few more days. It's not easy to walk on this road when it's flooded."

…………………

Since they had arrived, they had to accept it.

Since the road outside was blocked and they couldn't contact the action group, it was useless to be fearful.

Wei Yuan straightforwardly found a homestay to stay. This place was a man-made scenic spot, so there was no shortage of hotels and inns. The couple stayed in the most expensive and best hotel in the center of the village, and the driver, as an auxiliary member of the action group, naturally stayed there as well.

However, Wei Yuan didn't expect that the girl with the laptop also stayed in the homestay.

And the room happened to be next to Wei Yuan's.

The owner gave them the keys, and when they opened the door, the girl just nodded at Wei Yuan and lowered her head, slammed the door shut, and locked it. Wei Yuan shook his head, entered the room, closed the door, and thought for a moment before deciding not to put up any protective charms. He could handle opponents that could be suppressed by protective charms.

On the contrary, he hoped that some little ghosts or something would come to his door.

The owner provided food and accommodation at a reasonable price.

The dinner was relatively light.

Wei Yuan confirmed that there was no ghostly aura before eating some fruits.

He didn't touch the meat and noodles.

This was the experience he gained from borrowing books from the action group. Most of the time when encountering strange events, the fruits were still fruits, but no one knew what the true identity of the rice and dishes was.

Even if he was just being suspicious, it wouldn't hurt to be cautious.

The girl next to him, Shen Jifeng, looked at Wei Yuan and also picked up some fruits to eat.

There were actually other guests in the homestay, not just the three of them. The other guests were enjoying their meals happily. There was a generous man who asked Wei Yuan why he wasn't eating. Although this place was remote, the owner's cooking was quite good. Wei Yuan glanced at the owner who was smiling not far away and smiled:

"I'm on a diet."

After returning to his room, Wei Yuan found some food he brought and cooked two packs of instant noodles.

Because he knew that this incident was related to the strange restaurant, he brought some food with him.

Wei Yuan sat on the bed, took out his sword and placed it horizontally on his knees. He pressed a yellow talisman on the scabbard, suppressing the resentful energy within the sword. He operated the Sleeping Tiger Art as usual. Over-practicing would damage his meridians. After finishing his cultivation, Wei Yuan closed his eyes to rest. His breathing became longer and longer. When he opened his eyes, he saw a room, but the furnishings were different from the homestay. He knew that he had entered a dream again.

However, the master of this dream was very weak, and if he wanted to, he could easily wake up.

In this dream, there was a woman in a yellow dress, pulling two children, a boy and a girl. Her face was beautiful, and she kept kowtowing to Wei Yuan, tears streaming down her face, begging and praying:

"I have no choice but to disturb General. Please forgive me. I am in great danger and have nowhere else to go. My family lives in the water of Luo River. We used to live a peaceful life and never did anything wrong. But now, a calamity is coming, and only General can save us in this village."

"I hope you can lend a helping hand and save my family. We will always remember your great kindness. I will repay you with my life. I dare not deceive you."

After pleading repeatedly, the dream suddenly shattered.

Wei Yuan opened his eyes and found it strange that the woman he saw in the dream. The window was closed, but the curtain slowly opened. It was already pitch black outside, and the whole village was silent. Wei Yuan couldn't fall asleep for a while. He contemplated for a moment and faintly heard a strange sound carried by the wind.

Clatter, clatter...

It sounded like someone walking upstairs, and it also sounded like the collision of steel balls.

The sound quickly reached the corridor outside Wei Yuan's door. The footsteps were light and silent, and the voices during the conversation were even more inaudible to ordinary people. But in the eyes of Wei Yuan, who had cultivation, they were clear. Wei Yuan silently said to himself that they had arrived, and he reached out and grasped the hilt of his sword. The Sleeping Tiger Art slowly activated, enhancing his perception.

There was only one person's footsteps, but there were many voices.

Wei Yuan counted, there were five in total.

The 'guests' outside arrived at the first door, and Wei Yuan could hear the sound of them sniffing.

One voice asked, "How about this person?"

Another voice answered, "No, this person has connections and is a good person."

"How do you know that he is a good person?"

"Because this person spent a lot of money to buy jade talismans in a temple with magical powers."

The footsteps moved and turned to the opposite door. There was a sound of someone swallowing saliva, and they said:

"No, this person is not suitable. He is an official and will cause trouble."

There were sighs, and they went to find another room. The voice that tried to stop them became anxious and shouted:

"Oh no, this person is even worse. This is a notorious villain in this village. It would be asking for trouble to go find him!"

Other voices became angry and shouted, "This person is not suitable, that person is not suitable. We have been hungry for several days. If we don't have food today, we will eat you! If we don't have food today, we will eat you!"

The person in charge thought for a long time and looked at the last two rooms, saying:

"These two newcomers are neither good nor evil, without blessings or misfortunes. Let's go with them!"

Immediately, there was a sound of swallowing saliva.

They pushed open Wei Yuan's door.

But as far as the eye could see, there was no one in front of them.

The ghostly creatures were also stunned.

In this moment of confusion, a fierce and stern sword light descended from above, directly splitting their heads!
