Chapter 3725 Whispering

For practitioners like Chu Yang and Gongsun Qingyou, it is no longer necessary to eat and rest like ordinary people.

However, this time, the two of them still planned to experience the life of ordinary people. When Chu Yang woke up early the next morning, he found that someone had delivered food outside the place where they lived.

Chu Yang picked up the food and saw that it was full of things that ordinary people would eat. There was nothing special about it. Chu Yang used his spiritual sense to sense it and did not find any problems inside the food, so he simply tasted it twice and put it aside.

"I just don't know when the villagers of Jiuling Village will show their true colors?"

Gongsun Qingyou smiled coldly.

"I guess it won't be long before those villagers will attack you and me. Don't be too surprised when that happens."

Chu Yang's eyes passed through the faint mist in the air, and he didn't know where to look.

"At the moment, you and I may not be able to obtain the required information from the village chief, so we can only target those villagers who are hostile to you and me. If they really attack you and me, then you and I will have a reason to investigate."

"Things may not be as simple as you think, so it's better not to relax your vigilance too much."

Chu Yang did not answer Gongsun Qingyou directly, but changed the subject.

"Let's go, the owner of this house is here, and we should go meet him."

Chu Yang and Gongsun Qingyou walked outside the house and saw the village chief standing outside the gate.

The village chief changed into a different outfit from yesterday, and his white hair was neatly combed. He looked much more solemn than yesterday.

Chu Yang felt a faint fighting spirit from the village chief. Perhaps he felt that he was wrong, so Chu Yang looked at the village chief carefully again, and found that the breath he had felt before suddenly disappeared again.

"How did you two rest last night?"

"Not bad. The accommodation prepared by the village chief for the two of us is not lacking in any way."

"I wonder what the village chief is going to do for us today? Are you going to take us around Jiuling Village, or take us to meet the villagers of Jiuling Village?"

The village chief smiled kindly, "You two don't have to be so anxious. When the time comes, I will naturally take you to meet the villagers of Jiuling Village. Today I came to find you two mainly to take you to a place."

Chu Yang took a step forward and approached the village chief.

"Where does the village chief plan to take us two?"

"The back mountain."

Hearing the word back mountain, Chu Yang and Gongsun Qingyou showed a complicated expression on their faces at the same time.

When the two were in Taixuanmen before, they had gone deep into their back mountain. Unexpectedly, when they came to Jiuling Village, there was also a back mountain here. They didn't know which one was more dangerous, the back mountain here or the back mountain of Taixuanmen.

After a brief thought, Chu Yang asked casually, "What is the purpose of the village chief taking us to the back mountain? The village chief is old and weak. Would it be too strenuous for him to take us to the back mountain this time? Otherwise, let's ask a young man to take us there."

Chu Yang's words undoubtedly revealed that he wanted to meet the villagers of Jiuling Village, but the village chief obviously did not intend to let Chu Yang fulfill his wish.

"That's not necessary. Although I am old now, I don't need to bother young people to help me with such a small matter as going to the back mountain.

Besides, this is not the first time I have been to the back mountain. I am undoubtedly the person who is most familiar with the back mountain in the entire Jiuling Village. If I take you two there, there will not be too much danger."

"So you take us to the back mountain. What do you want us to do?"

Gongsun Qingyou was still asking the village chief's purpose.

The village chief's turbid eyes fell on Gongsun Qingyou.

"Since you are so curious, I will tell you the purpose of this trip in advance."

"Speaking of which, this trip to the back mountain is related to whether you can stay in our Jiuling Village for a long time. If you miss this opportunity, you will have to leave here anyway."

"What is the connection?"

The village chief sighed softly.

"Some things can only be understood by seeing them with your own eyes. No matter how much you say, it is not as real as seeing it with your own eyes. When you reach the destination of the back mountain, you will naturally know it."

Chu Yang narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at the village chief with narrow eyes.

"Then I will trouble the village chief to take us to the back mountain. If you need any help, just ask. We will never complain."

The village chief showed a strange smile on his face.

"Don't worry, there will be no accidents on this trip with me."

The voice stopped abruptly.

The village chief seemed to suddenly feel something, turned around slowly, and his eyes fell on the direction behind him.

Chu Yang looked in the direction of the village chief, but found nothing. However, Chu Yang vaguely felt that a shadow seemed to have passed through his sight. The other party's movements might be too fast, and Chu Yang did not dare to confirm it.

At this time, Chu Yang suddenly received the divine thought from Gongsun Qingyou.

"You also felt it."

"I thought there was something wrong with my perception, but now it seems that neither of us is wrong. This is indeed more weird than we imagined."

"As expected, the back mountain that this old guy took us to is probably not a good place. You and I better be careful."

"I really want to see what tricks this person can come up with."

“…”

The journey to the back mountain was not far, at least much shorter than the journey from the first time they arrived at Jiuling Village to the ancestral hall yesterday.

On this road, Chu Yang and Gongsun Qingyou occasionally saw curious villagers watching, but when they saw the direction the three were heading, these villagers had some meaningful and complex expressions on their faces.

Even the whispers of these villagers could be clearly heard by Chu Yang and Gongsun Qingyou.

"These outsiders are so ignorant that they dare to go to the back mountain. Now we are going to see something interesting."

"I said that the village chief would never let these outsiders go. Let's see what kind of trouble they can cause after they reach the back mountain."

"It has been many years since the village chief organized militia to go deep into the back mountain. I don't know what will happen this time. The village chief must not let anything happen."

"Just wait. The village chief will come out alive at the earliest by dark, but the two strangers are uncertain."

"If you want to blame someone, blame these two guys for not knowing how to live or die. They came to our Jiuling Village. Do they really think that our Jiuling Village is a place where anyone can come?"

"Shh! Stop talking. The two outsiders have already looked over. I always feel that they may have heard our conversation."
