The Big Devil vs. the Dark Villain

Nan Zhiyi said fiercely. This time Ling Siye did not indulge him. He walked quickly in front of them, picking some herbs from time to time and putting them in his pocket.

It is not a good thing to wear a mask all the time. It makes it inconvenient to eat and sleep.

Although Nan Zhiyi didn't understand what he was digging, she didn't urge him, but stayed by his side quietly.

"Don't you think this mountain is too quiet? You can hardly hear even the sounds of animals."

Ling Siye paused in digging herbs, then pretended nothing had happened and continued with his actions, but he was obviously a little absent-minded.

"Indeed, once we entered the mountain, I didn't hear any birds singing or cicadas chirping."

"According to our progress, we estimate that it will take us two more days to complete this undeveloped mountain. I hope nothing goes wrong."

Nan Zhiyi said with some worry and melancholy.

"So many people have come to this mountain, and nothing has ever happened. Don't think too much about it."

Ling Siye quickly dug up some herbs, stood up, approached him, and lied to him.

"Thanks for your good words, let's go! I think they are getting impatient waiting."

As he spoke, Nan Zhiyi used a wooden stick to push aside the weeds and branches and cleared a path ahead, walking with big strides.

Ling Siye fell behind by a few steps, standing in the dim light, with his head slightly lowered, hiding his expression.

Ling Siye (very angry): Idiot, look at what you have done, making Ayi worried.

Ling Siqi (looking aggrieved): Don’t blame me. There’s something weird about this place. There are many things hidden in the dark.

I was so tired after traveling all the way to make sure I didn't disturb you, how could I have the energy to do those little tricks!

Ling Siye: I don’t care. I will accompany him tonight as a punishment for you.

Ling Siqi: Brother, you've gone too far. We agreed that you would accompany me during the day and I would accompany you at night. You're not keeping your word and are breaking the contract on purpose.

Ling Siye: Stop talking nonsense. Believe it or not, if I eat him, he will become one with me and you will never see him again.

Ling Siqi: No!

Ling Siqi: Okay, then just one night. I will accompany him during the day tomorrow.

"Si Ye, hurry up and catch up. Don't fall behind. It's easy to be ambushed by wild beasts at night."

Nan Zhiyi noticed that he didn't keep up, so she stopped and waited for him to arrive before walking side by side with him.

"Boss Nan, you guys are finally back! We were almost starving to death."

Zhou Lei held a bowl weakly and drank millet porridge in small sips.

I didn't dare touch the other pot of boiled meat.

Nan Zhiyi put down the dry firewood, sat next to the fire and served two bowls of porridge to cool.

Ling Siye and Shen Ying squatted by the water, one processing herbs and the other washing mushrooms and red fruits.

"After processing it, I fished out most of the food inside and threw the herbs and mushrooms in to cook."

"Will it taste weird?" Xu Xiaoxiao stirred the herbs with a spoon, her face ashen.

She hated taking medicine the most, but now she had to eat food made from herbs and even drink soup.

Whenever I thought of her, I felt sick all over and lost my appetite.

Li Xiaowen looked at the herbs, and his expression visibly turned worse. He became gloomy again and stared at Nan Zhiyi with resentment.

The voice in my heart kept clamoring, and I wanted to tear something into pieces madly in order to calm down.

Damn it, damn it, who found the herbs? I can’t move at night again.

Ling Siye blocked her sight calmly and glared back at her with cold eyes, concealing murderous intent.

Ling Siqi: Brother, I want to kill her, she is just provoking me. Nothing can covet our people in front of us and get away with it.

Ling Siye: It's not possible now. The event was organized by Ayi. If someone dies, he will be implicated. You can injure her severely at night.

Ling Siqi: Okay, then what can I do to devour her other half?

Ling Siye: Of course, as long as you don’t die, you can play however you want.

"Oh, what a coincidence, you're here too."

"Why are you going to Xiaohe Village too?"

Cen Zijin, who was wearing a khaki mountaineering suit, sat down next to Nan Zhiyi in a familiar manner.

Behind him was a tall man wearing black mountaineering gear, with a righteous look on his face and a sharp aura lingering around him.

From his behavior, you can tell that he is a soldier, but I don't know whether he has retired or not.

"Hasn't Xiaohe Village been abandoned for a long time?"

"Where are you going and what are you doing?"

Shen Ying and Li Xiaowen asked at the same time, one with curiosity, the other with a sinister look and ill intentions.

"What have you heard about the murder case in Xiaohe Village the day before yesterday? We went to take a look out of curiosity."

Cen Zijin served two bowls of porridge in a familiar manner, picked up some vegetables, handed them to the man in black, and then began to eat slowly and elegantly.

Nan Zhiyi looked at him with slightly dark eyes. As soon as Cen Zijin arrived, he looked at Ling Siye who was in a trance.

Ling Siye felt his burning gaze and lowered his head guiltily, picking up his rice without even picking up any dishes.

Ling Siqi: What a disgusting smell, what a disgusting guy! I have to hide away, you're on your own!

Nan Zhiyi glared at Cen Zijin fiercely, and picked out the green vegetables and mushrooms from the pot and put them into Ling Siye's bowl.

Just eat, just eat. It won’t kill you.

When others heard about the Xiaohe Village case, they all looked at Li Xiaowen unconsciously.

Since the incident, Li Xiaowen has become a different person. The originally gentle and quiet person has become gloomy and lifeless, and seems difficult to get along with.

Li Xiaowen frowned unhappily, ignored their gazes, and stared at the man in black thoughtfully.

All of a sudden, the atmosphere became eerily quiet, and the only sounds left were the crackling of firewood and the gurgling of soup.

Everyone was busy eating.

"Shen Ying, aren't you at work? Why are you here?"

Shen Ying, who was hiding behind Zhou Lei pretending to be a coward, raised her head reluctantly and gave a flattering smile when she heard the words of the man in black.

"Uncle, what a coincidence, I meet you here. This is our boss Nan Zhiyi, we are working."

The man followed his gaze and looked towards Nan Zhiyi.

Seeing that the other person was somewhat similar to Cen Zijin, but more fierce and evil, he thought of something and frowned slightly.

"Boss Nan, nice to meet you. My name is Shen Tao, and I'm Shen Ying's uncle. Thank you for taking care of my niece during this period of time."

"No, we just have a normal employment relationship. You're welcome."

Nan Zhiyi raised the corners of her eyes slightly, revealing an evil and charming expression that seemed like a smile, and glared at the other person provocatively.

Shen Tao felt a little puzzled by his provocation, but he didn't think much about it.

I had no idea what kind of troubles being taken out on me would bring me later.

A petty-minded person can be unreasonable when he gets jealous.
