"Is there anything wrong with that?"
Seeing that Ni Hongye's face was becoming increasingly serious, Delia couldn't help but ask.
"With more than a hundred households, the food grown in the fields below may not be enough to eat. If there is a road leading to other villages, it can be explained. For example, some people do not rely on farming for a living, but may raise silkworms or do carpentry. But there is not even a path for people to walk around the village. This means that the village must be in a closed state at ordinary times. There is indeed a problem." Ye Wenlu frowned and said.
Wuming smiled and said, "Not bad, and there are only more than a hundred households. Don't you think this house is too well built and too new?"
"What if it's a newly built village? That would explain it. The reason why there isn't enough crops is because they still have surplus food. The houses are too new because they were newly built. There's no road leading to other villages because there hasn't been time to develop it yet." Mark suddenly thought of a possibility and immediately said excitedly.
Wuming and others looked at Mark, and Ye Wenlu said with a smile: “Why don’t you go and check out the situation?”
“Uh… didn’t we just agree that you, Old Ye, would go? Hehehe, forget it. I don’t look like a local at first glance, with blond hair and blue eyes. What if the villagers mistake me for a monster?” Mark immediately backed off.
Wuming said speechlessly: "Okay, safety first, we won't go into the village, and continue to head towards the next mountain."
"Well, safety first. In this last stage, we must be steady!" Mark nodded immediately.
Everyone continued to move forward, Wuming and Ni Hongye led the way, Mark and Delia were responsible for guarding both sides of the escort car, and Ye Wenlu was responsible for driving the escort car.
There is indeed a big difference between having a road and not having a road.
It took Wuming and his companions a whole day to walk from one mountain to the hillside of another. Finally, they stopped on a huge black rock and prepared to spend the night there.
The location of this place is quite good. You can see the surrounding terrain clearly and even look back to see the village you just visited, but the village has become a small square.
As night fell, Wuming lit a bonfire.
“Hiss, look!” Mark suddenly took a breath, patted Ye Wenlu next to him, and said in a low voice.
Everyone followed his gaze to look at the village in the distance. The whole village was emitting a faint green light, and it suddenly turned from a paradise on earth during the day into a haunted place.
"There is indeed a problem." Ye Wenlu said.
Wuming was silent for a moment, then said, "It seems that the real danger in this world comes from ghosts. I wonder if my inner strength can cause any harm to them."
"It shouldn't be possible. According to the nature of most internal forces in the universe, they are unable to cause harm to ghosts and monsters. There are some worlds where people have cultivated pure yang, extremely strong and fierce internal forces, which can burn ghosts and monsters with blood, but our internal forces obviously do not have such properties." Ye Wenlu said.
He then tapped his pipe and said with a smile, "Normally, if you want to cause damage to ghosts and monsters, you have to cultivate true qi, and the true qi must be professional. As far as I know, there are martial arts such as Dragon Evil Kung, Pure Yang Fishing Qigong, Nine Yang Magic Kung, etc. Cultivating true qi can completely defeat all kinds of ghosts and monsters."
"Can Chun Yang Diao Qigong restrain ghosts? Then I'll give it a try." Wuming laughed after hearing this.
