They rested very early because they will continue their journey south tomorrow.

Early the next morning.

Lu Li and others woke up one after another.

Waiting for the fog to dissipate, they left the hut and walked out of the village.

Seeing the scarecrows surrounding the village again, knowing that these respectable scarecrows stand guarding the village day and night, the feeling of horror was reduced a lot.

On the edge of the farmland in the mist, a silhouette lay crying at the feet of a scarecrow.

It was a girl with braided braids, her eyes looking sadly into the distance.

"It's that girl!" Psius exclaimed.

"What's going on?" Catalina frowned and asked the crying young man.

The young man slowly told what happened.

That was his fiancée. When he returned to the village yesterday evening, he was told that his fiancée had died of illness. According to village custom, he turned into a scarecrow three days later to protect the village.

"Three days ago..." Pusius looked at Lu Li in shock.

"We got here yesterday evening."

Lu Li's calm whisper sounded in front of the girl's scarecrow.

"She led us into the village."

The trembling young man stopped crying and raised his bloodshot eyes.

Lu Li still looked at him calmly.

The young man said nothing and silently got up and walked towards the village.

"let's go."

Looking at the scarecrows looming in the mist again, Lu Li looked away.

After leaving the village and traveling south for a while, the surrounding mist suddenly turned into a light red color like burning clouds.

If they turned around without realizing it, they saw the village in the distance turned into a sea of ​​flames.

In the twisted sea of ​​fire, the clothes of the scarecrows trembled, as if they were dancing in the blurry and twisted heat.
