"It wasn't until the moment I was pierced by the sharp blade that I realized that I had shrunk and become cowardly. The man holding the sharp blade looked at the two of us coldly, with no expression on his face.

It was like looking at a piece of trash that was about to be discarded. Even if our blood flowed along the sharp blade and into his tiger's mouth, the man just quickly pulled out the sharp blade and shook off the blood stains on his palms.

After killing both of us, the man turned around and left, heading to another door. In the entire village, except for a group of outsiders like them who were walking back and forth, there was no one left alive.

The village that night was like a purgatory on earth, and I dare not recall the scene at that time.

I fell to the ground and seemed to have forgotten the pain in my body. I just stared at the figures of those people with wide eyes. When I saw those people grabbing an old man in the village and interrogating one of my former subordinates,

I knew it. This group of people came for the treasure in Dome Mountain.

I laughed out loud when I watched those people asking for directions and walking towards the entrance. After they entered the mountain, I closed my eyes completely.

After turning into souls, for some unknown reason, our whole village turned into souls, and there was no legendary black and white impermanence coming to capture our souls.

What is even more surprising to us is that our souls are changing day by day. Whether in terms of strength or body shape, we are becoming more agile and faster than before.

But since that day, I have never seen my son again, and all the young people in the village have never come back.

We once searched outside the village, but could not get out of the edge of the mountain. We could only wander in the forest and the village. In this way, nearly a thousand years passed. We, the people in the village, began to adapt to the body of the soul state invisibly.

Until one day, a group of strangers dressed strangely came. Like you, they wandered around the village, and then drank the bud fruit wine we presented, and they all passed out.

According to the rejuvenation spell I learned before, I was the first to exchange souls with one of the men. I extracted the man's soul and then burned it with phosphorus fire.

I, on the other hand, overrode the guest and took his body for my own use. After confirming that this method of reviving the soul into the body was available, I replaced the only dozen or so bodies according to the bone size of the people in the village.

Just like that, another few decades have passed. You are just the fourth group of people who came to search for the treasure of Dome Mountain."

After the city lord said this, he also let out a sigh of relief, and his painful expression softened.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute." I was a little confused when I heard it, and I quickly stretched out my palm and made a stop gesture. "Mr. City Lord, I probably understand what you said. But there are some parts of it that you don't understand.

It's vague.

First, why did you laugh when you saw those who killed people in your village entering Dome Mountain?"

The city lord curled his lips: "Because they can't come out alive again."

I paused for a moment and continued to ask: "Second, are there anyone in your village who can use onmyoji?"

"No." The city lord looked at it for a few times in confusion before replying hesitantly.

I slapped my palm and grinned: "Then the question is, who did you learn the technique of resurrecting the soul into the body that you mentioned?"

The city lord froze, as if he didn't expect me to ask such a question. He then fell silent, looked at me and shook his head slightly.

I took a deep breath and said, "Okay, let's put the question another way. What you said at the end was that we are the fourth group, which means that before us, there were three groups of people who came here to hunt for treasures. But you only mentioned two groups.

Where are there other groups of people?”

After hearing my question, the city lord still pursed his lips and said nothing. I looked at him directly, but the other party remained unmoved.

"Ah, okay, okay," I scratched my hair: "Then tell me, did the person who taught you the reanimation technique go into the mountains?"

It was only then that the city lord finally gave me some reaction and nodded lightly.

After hearing this, I immediately raised the corner of my mouth: "He didn't come out either? He"

Unexpectedly, I had just asked this question, and before I could finish the sentence, there was a rapid knock on the door.

The city lord and I looked at the door at the same time. A villager pushed the door open and came in. Then he gasped and pointed to the door and said: "City, city lord, someone has come ashore outside!"

"Really? How many people are there?" The expression on the city lord's face changed instantly, and he asked in surprise.

I smiled and rubbed the tip of my nose: Sure enough, there were soldiers following us. Since they were soldiers, there must be many of them.

"There are more than twenty people, all wearing green clothes and carrying many strange things on their backs. They are dressed similar to him." The villager said and pointed at me sharply.

I curled up my lips: "That's right, they are the ones I'm talking about. Now that they are here, can you tell us the entrance to the mountain and let us leave?"

"Don't worry, I'll take a look first."

After saying these words, the city lord followed the villagers who reported the report and walked out. I didn't dare to stop, so I followed closely behind the two of them.

Outside the house, it was already evening, the sun was setting in the west, and the sunset was shining brightly on the ground.

As soon as we left the house, the city lord raised his arm and ordered the surrounding villagers: "Please come out and send them away."

I happily looked at the villagers on both sides, opened all the doors, and then Brother Xiao and the others, who had already woken up, walked out of their respective houses with pale faces.

"Brother Xiao! Sister Xun'er, Master Qi!" I waved my arms excitedly and greeted them. As soon as Brother Xiao saw me, he forced a smile and pretended to walk towards me.

However, he was stopped by the villagers on the side.

"Hey," I was about to speak, but the city lord on the side said in a low voice: "Follow me to the edge of the forest. Once you are sure that someone has come in, I will let you leave. When you come back to join your brothers, someone will tell you.

Where is the entrance?"

After saying this, I made a few gestures with Brother Xiao and others, telling them to wait for me here and that I would come later.

So, the city lord and I hurried to the entrance of the village without any delay.

Standing at the entrance of the village, through the gaps in the grass, the city owner and I could faintly see dozens of soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms, standing neatly by the river, ready to go.

"It's them, it's them. Look, I just said there are a lot of people." I spoke excitedly, pointing at the soldiers and saying.

The city lord curled his lips and smiled: "Ah, although you are as accurate as him in predicting things, you are not as stable as others."
