Chapter 280: Chapter 280: The Ghost Village with No People

They followed Bai Sasa’s pace and walked through the gloomy forest for quite some time, finally spotting a cluster of pitch-dark houses.

The buildings were jet black and stood erect like coffins, especially terrifying in the darkness of the night.

At that moment, a strange wind blew, causing the bells on the watchtower to ring.

"Ding-ding~"

The eerie sound of the bell made Bai Lingyu and Xiao Shan’s hair stand on end, and instinctively, they both clung tightly to the thighs of Bai Junjun and Li Wenli.

At that time, Bai Sasa also looked back at Bai Junjun with a face full of terror and whispered.

"It’s... right here."

"Let’s take a look,"

Bai Junjun said, leading the way inside as Bai Sasa had no choice but to follow, with Li Wenli now walking at the rear of the group.

From the watchtower side, there was a broken wall, presumably the two-headed creature must have come and gone through here, as a faint path had been trampled out.

Bai Junjun, while keeping an eye out for an ambush from the creature, tried to encourage the trembling children.

The group slowly made their way into the village.

All the buildings here were made of wood, and each stood like a tube-shaped building, not too large, but very tall and slender, oddly resembling upright coffins.

Most alarming was the uncertain hiding spot of the creature; once inside, no sound was made at all.

Bai Junjun led the group further into this eerie place.

These standalone tube-shaped buildings were about two stories high, with the ground floor similar to a stilted building—none of the floors had doors, some had merely columns, others had partitions, but all were empty inside.

As for what the upper floors looked like, it was unknown, all boarded up with wood.

The upper floor of the tube-shaped buildings was also all boarded up. No doors or windows appeared to be present.

The creature seemed to vanish like a true ghost, its presence no longer detectable.

Bai Junjun, disbelieving in superstitions, silently drew her Special Ability, preparing to fight magic with magic.

However, before her Special Ability could disperse, suddenly a gentle knocking from an attic came, followed by a rapid succession of knocking sounds from all around.

With thousands in the area, when these tube-shaped buildings simultaneously emitted a "clicking" sound, it was quite frightening.

Bai Junjun and Li Wenli automatically shielded the three children behind them, forming a back-to-back formation.

Both of them with good night vision, saw that after the strange noises started, the tube-shaped buildings opened-hidden compartments, from which a faint cold light emerged.

They hadn’t expected these tube-shaped buildings to actually be arrow platforms—are there soldiers inside?

Bai Junjun and Li Wenli instinctively tightened their grip on their weapons, ready to respond to whatever might happen next.

Just then, one of the tube-shaped buildings suddenly had a wooden plank pulled aside, revealing a middle-aged man with a murderous look.

"Who goes there?"

Seeing the other side didn’t immediately use a weapon, Bai Sasa and Li Wenli breathed a sigh of relief, knowing there was room for negotiation.

"Good day, elder, we are fugitives headed south. We didn’t mean to intrude into your territory, please forgive us."

Li Wenli, as always adept at social interaction, was the first to step forward.

As a man, his sense of responsibility was unquestionable.

Bai Junjun observed all of this silently without speaking.

However, the man in the tube-shaped building laughed: "Joke! Death Valley is not a place where mere fugitives can enter. If you don’t tell the truth, don’t blame me for being ruthless with my sword."

As soon as the man’s words fell, the hidden arrows in the tube-shaped building protruded more than an inch outward.
