So no matter what, they must prevent all this from happening at the root.
However, there didn't seem to be anything strange happening around along the way, so it could be said to be quite calm.
They even spoke in lower voices.
After all, there are people around here and there, and it would be very bad if someone heard it.
However, after walking for such a long time, they seemed not to have reached their destination yet, which made Qi Tiezui feel a little strange.
He couldn't help but move closer to Zhang Qihai and spoke.
"Is this Valley of the Dead so far? We have been walking for such a long time, why haven't we arrived yet?"
The main reason was that his health was not very good to begin with, and the journey was so long that the game was indeed too tiring.
If something really happens and his body can't keep up, how can it not be considered a heavy blow to him?
So at this moment he couldn't help but raise his hands and gently pat his legs and arms.
At the moment, their walking speed was already quite slow and they were almost at the back.
But of course it was impossible for him to be behind that group of disguised killers.
They always deliberately slowed down their pace and walked at the back, just to be able to see everything clearly in front of them, and to be able to see clearly what happened in front of them from behind. They were unwilling to miss even the slightest detail.
Hearing this, Zhang Qihai also felt something was wrong.
Although he didn't know how far away the Valley of the Dead was from where they had started, they had indeed walked a very long distance now.
"I don't know either. Let's just walk first."
After all, the fat man is now some distance away from them, and it is not easy for them to just walk up to the fat man and ask him about all this.
Since Zhang Qihai had said this, he couldn't say anything else. He could only grit his teeth and continue moving forward.
However, Zhang Qihai was also observing the surrounding environment while walking.
Originally, they passed through the busy streets, and then came to the deep mountains and forests.
But they didn't expect that after they climbed over the mountain, they saw an inn not far away.
This inn seemed very shabby, and Zhang Qihai found it very strange. Who would open such an inn in such a place with no traffic?
Just as he was thinking about this, Qi Tiezui couldn't help but speak.
"This place is really too desolate, what kind of person is so desperate as to open an inn here?"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Qihai immediately nodded.
"Yeah, let's just wait and see what happens."
Unexpectedly, the leader took them to this inn.
"It's getting late today, let's stay here first and continue our journey tomorrow."
Someone suddenly came to the side of the chieftain and spoke.
At the beginning, the big toast was also very conflicted. She stood there seeming to be hesitating.
After a while, he finally spoke.
"But what if there's a delay?"
Upon hearing this, the person next to him immediately shook his head.
"But if we set out on our journey in the dark, we may run into trouble along the way. Let's wait until daybreak before setting off again."
Big Toast thought about it carefully for a while. It would not be a good thing if he really encountered any trouble on the road. Finally, he nodded and agreed.
"Okay, you're right. Let's rest here for the night."
After all, she also knew how terrible this Valley of the Dead was.
So no matter what, you must think twice before making any decision.
Otherwise, the situation may become even worse.
Then she turned around again and spoke to the people behind her.
"Everyone, follow me to the inn. We will rest tonight and then set off tomorrow."
I didn't expect that the chieftain would actually make such a decision.
Zhang Qihai and Qi Tiezui looked at each other with a hint of surprise in their eyes.
But after a moment, they seemed to immediately hide the emotions in their eyes.
No matter what, it can't be seen too obviously by others.
Otherwise, I am afraid that others will suspect me.
Naturally, no one would disobey the orders of the chieftain, so they followed her to the inn and settled down.
After waiting for them to arrive at the door, the chief chieftain gave a wink to his men beside him.
The man immediately stepped forward, raised his hand and knocked gently on the door.
"Excuse me, is there anyone inside?"
After an unknown amount of time, someone finally opened the door.
Looks like an old man.
He looked outside with some trepidation, as he had not expected that there would be so many people there.
"You... who are you? What do you want to do?"
He also seemed very alert.
Then the chief chief stepped forward and spoke.
"We are passing by here and would like to stay here for one night. Is that possible?"
The old man seemed very hesitant.
It was not until the chieftain asked his men to give him a bag of money that he nodded and agreed.
Chapter 450: One Night Stay
"Okay, everyone, please come in."
Then everyone entered the inn together.
When they come here, they will find that the environment here is really very bad. There are almost spider webs everywhere and all kinds of dust. It looks like no one has lived here for a long time.
As soon as I entered the door, I smelled a very strong and strange smell.
Qi Tiezui raised his hand, gently fanned the smell from his nostrils, frowned and spoke.
"Oh my god, this smells really bad."
Hearing this, Zhang Qihai couldn't help but frown.
The smells here are really weird.
He also felt that something was very wrong, but he couldn't tell what was wrong right now.
Then, when the old man saw that there was a coffin behind him, his face turned pale with fright, and he spoke with a trembling voice.
"Oh my God, why is there a coffin here!"
He could hardly believe his eyes.
Seeing this scene, the chief chief stepped forward and spoke.
"Give me money."
The men behind him immediately gave their money to the old man again.
"He has to live here with us, too."
The old man originally wanted to say something else, but after seeing the money in the purse, he could only shut his mouth.
Although the eunuch's face turned blue with fear, he had to endure it for the sake of the money.
Then he spoke very timidly.
"There really aren't many people in my comments. My son is gone. My wife and I are the only ones living in this big empty house, so some of the rooms upstairs are very messy. Let me clean them up before you move in."
In this case, no one will say anything more.
It is very rare for them to have a place to live now. If I am picky, they can only live in the wilderness.
Although there was a lot of dust on the tables and benches in the hall, they had nothing to complain about.
Everyone sat down in the hall and began to rest. Fortunately, there was some tea to quench their thirst.
The old man’s wife seemed a little surprised when she saw so many people coming. She looked like she had just woken up.
She looked at so many people in front of her and didn't know what to do for a moment.
So he hurried upstairs.
When she saw her husband tidying up the rooms that had not been occupied for a long time, she asked out of curiosity.
"What are these people downstairs? What are their origins? Why are they suddenly in our house?"
Upon hearing this, the old man turned around and spoke to her.
"They are just passers-by who want to stay here for one night, and they gave us a lot of money. We should keep it so that we can save it for our son to marry him when he comes back."
Upon hearing this, the old woman's face naturally became even uglier.
She subconsciously took a step closer to her husband and asked.
"Oh my God, but our place is so remote, how could someone come here for no apparent reason and want to settle down? Is there something we don't know about?"
It felt very strange at first. After all, the place they were in was in the middle of a desolate mountain area, and it was impossible for there to be only a few people here on a normal day.
And just now she clearly saw a coffin placed in the hall. It was a coffin.
The old man was naturally helpless when he heard this.
"Although we have had this inn for many years, since some incidents happened around here, it has become a desolate mountain wilderness with few people staying here. We can't make any money either. Now that we have this rare opportunity, we can't just drive them out, right?"
After hearing this, the old woman didn't know what to say.
