This rain lasted for three days.They stayed in that cave for a full three days.During these three days, Asha'ruya also asked Mo Fan some questions. Unfortunately, Mo Fan didn't seem very cooperative.For example, when she wanted to know what Mo Fan's cultivation method was, Mo Fan had no intention of telling her at all.If I just answer whatever she asks me, wouldn't that be incredibly embarrassing?"The rain has stopped, we can set off now," said Ali, the attendant, as he returned from outside the cave."What, you're still going to Huacun?" the short man asked, looking at the group."Mm." Mo Fan nodded.Azharia nodded in agreement."I know you two are exceptionally strong, but I've heard from others that there's a Fiend Abyss near Hua Village. If we accidentally step into it, hundreds of lives would be lost!" the short man said."Either you get your money back, or you lead the way. You have no choice," Mo Fan said with a smile.Upon hearing about the refund, the short man immediately shook his head in refusal.Refund?There's no way I'll get my money back in this lifetime!So, in the end, he had no choice but to continue on the road.The journey to Huacun was unusually peaceful, though we encountered groups of spirits, but we managed to get through them safely using the gray garlic.However, upon arriving at Huacun, the group was once again bewildered by the deserted village!Upon entering the village, the village paths were in a mess, with destroyed wooden houses, scattered haystacks, and brown bloodstains.It's clear this place has been attacked, but it's different from the previous village. At least the village still exists."Oh, I'm dying of thirst! I hope this well isn't dirty." The short man saw a well in the center of the village and immediately ran over.Looking down, the short man saw a dark, deep well. Just as he was thinking about how to pump the water up, suddenly a face emerged from the well and almost touched his own.Both faces were startled. The short man fell back down, and a heavy "plop" came from the well!Everyone turned around and, seeing the short man's appearance, knew that someone was in the well.The young man, soaking wet, was greatly relieved to see that the person who had fallen into the well was alive."Are you Hong Jun?" The burly man recognized the young man and quickly moved closer."You are… oh, you're the seedling from the next village!" Hong Jun recognized the strong man."What happened in the village? Why is there no one here? Do you know where everyone from Yangyang Village has gone?" asked the burly man, Fang Youmiao."I don't know where the people from your village went, but I have to go down and say hello to everyone first. If we don't come out for some fresh air, everyone will be suffocating," Hong Jun said.After the creature that emerged from the well came up, people from their village began to emerge from the small well one by one.Even at the very end, Mo Fan finally saw Zhang Xiaohou.However, the monkey pretended not to recognize him.Even if I saw a fleeting emotion in his eyes, it was only for a moment.And speaking of which, the monkey seems to be suffering from forgetfulness.This is a rather troublesome matter. Upon returning to the ancient capital, the first thing he needs to deal with is Mu He's situation. Having already come all this way, he still doesn't want to see such a large number of civilians die or be injured, even if he has the ability to prevent it."You know him??" Su Xiaoluo was overjoyed and hurriedly asked Mo Fan."Yes, I know him. I came here to see him." Mo Fan nodded, not exposing the monkey's true colors.That's great."."After learning about Zhang Xiaohou's situation from Mo Fan, Su Xiaoluo was happy for him. At least this way, the monkey wouldn't live a muddled life.The morning light was still obscured by the clouds, making it dim and indistinct when it fell on the village.The rain has stopped, but the clouds haven't dispersed, lingering above this salty land all day long."Fu Da… oh no, Zhang Xiaohou, I thought you were going to be a blockhead for the rest of your life. Someone's come to pick you up!" Su Xiaoluo said with a bright smile."I'm not leaving," Zhang Xiaohou said hurriedly to Su Xiaoluo, as if afraid of losing something."That won't do. Your friend said you're a sorcerer, and he'll take you back for treatment. Maybe your amnesia will be cured?" Su Xiaoluo said.The monkey knew that the Vatican's people were also hiding among them, and he was afraid of causing trouble for Mo Fan.After all, Mo Fan controlled the sacred spring of Bo City.The Vatican has never given up on the idea of the Holy Spring."Forget about leaving, we've made up our minds. While it's still light, let's move to the ancient capital as soon as possible," the boy who had fallen into the well suddenly said, walking over.Mo Fan glanced at the other person and said, "Come to think of it, this is a real Vatican official."But after thinking it over, he didn't take action. Making a move now would be disastrous for him. As for the feud between the two villages, Mo Fan couldn't get involved, after all, they had both provided him with considerable help.Mo Fan actually wanted them to leave this place together, but unfortunately, the people here said that they were the safest place to start their mission.They didn't believe Mo Fan at all, and Mo Fan didn't force them.He wanted to save people, but that doesn't mean he was begging others to let him save them.He's not that shameful.The villagers were divided in their opinions. Some stubborn people were determined not to go anywhere, preferring to hide in the well and endure the hardship rather than go outside the village.In their view, leaving the village might mean dying even faster.The village chief, Xie Sangde, meant migration, so he could only organize those who were willing to leave the village.However, the number of people who were actually willing to leave the village was not as large as one might imagine; the vast majority of people chose to stay."The village is in such a state, are you still staying here to wait to die?" Su Xiaolu shouted angrily at the stubborn old folks in the village."Yes, let's go together. Staying in the village will only get us killed by the undead. We've already lost our protection," said another, younger boy."We've made up our minds." A middle-aged man plopped down next to the well."It's at least two or three days' journey from here to the ancient capital. If we have to stay outside for two nights, that's suicide," an older woman said."Zhang Xiaohou's friends will escort us to the ancient capital. We'll be safe once we reach the outer city wall," Su Xiaoluo continued to persuade her."A few young kids, how could they possibly handle what's going on outside? Anyway, we're not leaving!""."After some argument, some were willing to leave, while others were unwilling to leave.Mo Fan had nothing to say, and Asharuya had her own things to do, so they parted ways there.What exactly she was up to, whether she was going to see Salang, Mo Fan didn't know, and didn't care to know. To put it bluntly, Asha'ruya had connections in both the legitimate and underworld circles.But these are other people's business. She herself is not a bad person, and there's nothing I should be meddling in.
