Chapter 384.

Changchang County, Wuyan Town.

“Father, I’m back.”

Zhang Dahu dashed into the small courtyard and quickly closed the door to his room.

He looked up at the Evil Warding Talisman affixed to the doorframe and couldn’t help but let out a long breath.

“How is the situation outside?”

A dark-skinned old man with a saddened look greeted him, “Did you find anyone?”

“Found them!”

Zhang Dahu touched the sweat seeping out from his forehead and said, “Wang Wu’s family, Sun Cheng’s family, and Li Zhen’s family are all willing to leave with us in a group, and will meet up at the Chidao at dawning time tomorrow, and will not wait until it’s too late!”

“Alas.”

Zhang Lao Han sighed heavily, “I hope it goes well.”

Wrongly, Zhang Laohan really didn’t want to leave the town where he was born and raised.

But the current situation in the town had deteriorated to the point where it was difficult to survive, and if he didn’t leave, sooner or later he would have to get killed.

“I also don’t know if the county town side will send a de-sinning envoy over.”

He was still holding on to his last glimmer of hope.

“Don’t think about it.”

Zhang Dahu said in a jarring voice, “Li Zhen told me that the county town side is also haunted by evil spirits, and they are so preoccupied with themselves that they can’t possibly send out a war cultivator to clear out the evil spirits, so we’d better run.”

Zhang Laohan’s sadness intensified at his words, “That’s the only way.”

Zhang Dahu was about to comfort him with a few words when his face suddenly changed abruptly, “It’s foggy, quickly go inside!”

Father and son hurriedly returned to the room and opened the cover of the secret passage and drilled in.

In the secret room below, there was also their wife and son.

Although there was still some time before darkness, this border town was shrouded by the mist that had quietly struck.

The doors of the town’s homes were closed and the chickens and dogs were silent, plunging the town into a dead silence, and the occasional cry of a baby rang out, then disappeared, as if it had been muffled by someone.

When night falls, Wuyan Township is even more silent and cold, whistling wind swept through the town of the road, rolled up a few fallen leaves.

I don’t know where the ghostly low sobbing came from, like telling a sad story.

Weekdays at this time the most lively taverns and teahouses, now all closed for business, no light shining, the streets dark, as if hibernating a head of people want to eat the ferocious beast.

Only under the porch of each house, hanging a piece of evil charm, still flickering with a faint glow.

But also like a candle in the wind, at any time there is the possibility of annihilation!

Suddenly a gust of evil wind blew by, and quite a few of the Evil-Preventing Talismans steeply burned automatically and quickly turned into ashes.

After a few more moments, a mournful and short scream suddenly rang out from inside the town.

However, no one ran out to check the situation, and the surviving townspeople huddled in their own chambers, waiting bitterly for the long night to pass with their eyes wide open.

This also included Zhang Dahu’s family.

It was a particularly long and torturous night, and by dawn, everyone was drowsy.

Zhang Dahu’s eyelids kept fighting until a rough slap slapped him heavily on the back of his head, and he abruptly came to his senses, “Who?”

“Me!”

Next to him, Zhang Laohan said without a trace of humor, “Hurry up, don’t miss the hour of rendezvous!”

Zhang Dahu had a jolt and instantly became lucid, “Go!”

The family’s food, belongings and some daily necessities, have long been loaded in the storage bag, can not be stuffed with clothes and other things packed into luggage, a family of six people hurriedly out of the house.

Zhang Dahu was carrying a huge traveling bag, holding his young son in his arms, and holding his daughter-in-law in his left hand.

“Father, Mother, you guys follow.”

Zhang Laohu said in a deep voice, “Don’t worry, even if the two of us die, we won’t drag you down.”

These were not negative or mocking words, but a firm choice!

Zhang Dahu’s heart was filled with sorrow and bitterness, “To die, we’ll die together.”

“Don’t be silly!”

Zhang Laohan slapped him again, “If you die, our old Zhang family will be extinct!”

The family ran as fast as they could through the long, depressed and cold streets, seeing very few pedestrians along the way.

However, at the entrance of the town, a large group of townspeople with their wives and children had already gathered by the side of the chi road.

Many of them were holding weapons or talismans, looking around vigilantly.

Seeing these people, Zhang Dahu immediately felt a great sense of relief in his heart and hurriedly went forward to greet, “Li Zhen, Sun Cheng ……”

These are all friends that he has known since childhood, and they have a very good relationship on weekdays.

And now Wuyan Town is haunted by evil spirits, every day people are missing and murdered, we feel that we can’t live on, so we agreed to leave together in a team today.

Wuyan Town is more than two hundred miles away from the county town, although there is a chi road connected, but everyone knows that this road is not good.

It would be too easy for something to happen if they didn’t stick together.

“Where is Wang Wu?”

Zhang Dahu did not see his best friend in the crowd, and his heart sank.

Sun Cheng replied with a pale face, “When I came over, I saw that the door of Wang Wu’s house was open, and all of the evil warding talismans were gone.”

Zhang Dahu was speechless.

This meant that Wang Wuyi’s family was in dire straits, and it was highly likely that something bad had happened to them.

Sun Cheng lowered his head, “I, I didn’t dare to go in and look.”

He was ashamed, but no one would blame him, because in his place, I’m afraid he would have made the same choice.

“The hour is up!”

At this time, the mist that had enveloped the town had completely dispersed, and the sun shone through the gaps in the clouds on the chute, bringing people a long-lost warmth.

A group of townspeople anxiously set off on their journey to escape, drawing out a long line on the Chi Road.

No one knew what was waiting for them, but there was still a chance of survival if they left, but they would surely die if they stayed!

Along the road out of more than ten miles, will be the town far behind, there has never been an accident, which makes everyone’s depressing mood became a lot more relaxed.

The atmosphere of the team was also much better.

However, Zhang Dahu’s heart was always shrouded in a layer of shadow, feeling that such smoothness would not last forever.

As a cultivator at the third level of Qi Practicing, he would be much faster if he could leave this group of people behind and travel alone.

But his mother and wife were both mortals, none of which he could leave behind.

Hopefully, his feelings were wrong!

“Look!”

Just as Zhang Dahu was consoling himself, a shriek suddenly came from the side: “What’s that?”

Zhang Dahu looked in the direction of the other party’s finger, only to see that a large dark cloud had suddenly appeared in the west and was rapidly drifting towards their location.

He fixed his eyes on it and realized that the large dark clouds were actually made up of a head of black crows!

These black crows were large in size and had bloodshot, blood-red eyes, and they let out mournful cries as they flew over the crowd in a split second and swooped down.

To make matters worse, gusts of gray mist rose from the surrounding fields and swept towards the Chi Road.

Zhang Dahu’s heart sank downward violently, and he couldn’t help but clench his fists!
