"Heh, Li Huowang, be careful, this kid is lying to you." Li Huowang looked up and saw Red, who had no face or eyes, sitting on Peng Longteng's head, revealing a row of white teeth.

Li Huowang's lips twitched slightly, but he didn't say anything when he looked around at the crowd.

His composure was still not enough, and he couldn't remain calm in the face of these hallucinations.

As for what the person said, it went in one ear and out the other for Li Huowang. When it came to Red, he didn't even believe the punctuation.

Li Huowang's gaze shifted from Red to Bai Sai beside him, and he was very interested in a detail in the latter's words.

"Chief Bai, you said they came to trouble you because your son found a stone. Can you tell me what kind of stone it was?"

After recalling for a while, Bai Sai frowned and gestured with his hands to show the size of the orange-colored stone. "It was about this big, warm to the touch. He found it in the field and brought it back to warm his grandmother's knees."

"Is the stone still there? Can I take a look?"

"We were all taken away in shackles, so how could that thing still be there? The guy with the wooden mask took it away a long time ago," Bai Sai said with a sigh.

"A fist-sized stone that emits heat on its own?" If that stone was some kind of treasure, then this was a case of disguising as the Supervisory Office and stealing treasures.

But something didn't add up. If Li Huowang were the one stealing the treasure, he would either do it secretly or openly, and then kill everyone to cover his tracks.

But shackling everyone and marching them towards the capital didn't make sense. The other side must have had its own purpose.

Li Huowang stopped and asked Bai Sai, "Chief Bai, how tall was the person with the wooden mask you mentioned?"

It seemed like this person had created the illusion of Bai Wuchang that Li Huowang had seen before.

"Well, he was about as tall as you, with a young voice. On the way, if someone didn't listen, this guy could make them see some terrifying things in their heads."

Many people in the crowd looked fearful when they heard Bai Sai's words. It seemed like they had been tormented by the masked man's ability.

Li Huowang silently nodded. It seemed like the giant Bai Wuchang he had seen before was fake and was created by that person.

It didn't seem like a simple illusion, and Li Huowang should have been able to see through it. But there was too little information to understand what was going on."Hey, sir, since we've escaped, let's not worry about it and hurry up. If that person holds a grudge and comes back, it will be a big problem." Bai Sai was very worried, obviously thinking about the whole Niu Xin Village.

Li Huowang actually wanted to ask more, but hearing what the other person said, he didn't say anything anymore.

Anyway, these people were all Bai Lingmiao's family, and they definitely had to be saved.

Without the wooden shackles, it was obvious that people walked much more lightly. Everyone's face showed a look of surviving a disaster.

Walking like this, they walked until noon. The old people and children in the crowd couldn't hold on any longer and had to stop and rest.

"Mom, I'm hungry." A child pulled at his mother's clothes with his hand.

Not only the children were hungry, but the adults were also hungry, but they didn't say anything.

Although Li Huowang had some dry food on his horse, it was probably not enough to share with so many people.

Seeing their empty hands, it was natural that there was nothing to eat. Li Huowang thought for a moment and said, "We should be able to reach a village tomorrow. We can buy some food there. As for today..."

At this point, Li Huowang patted the slender neck of his horse with his hand. "Let's kill the horse first."

One horse had so much meat, enough for many people to eat.

Bai Sai heard this and immediately shook his head repeatedly. "Sir, how can you say that? We can find other ways to fill our stomachs. Feng, you go with San Fang and Si Fang to the woods to find some food! Hurry up!"

"Hey!" A sturdy young man led some people and walked towards the woods.

Li Huowang was about to help, but was quickly stopped by others. "Sir, you sit and rest. Let the younger generation handle this kind of thing. Feng, you fan sir with a big leaf since he's sweating!"

Forced by them, Li Huowang had to sit down and enjoy the fan from a chubby girl.

Li Huowang originally thought they were going to find some wild fruits and vegetables in the woods, but after an hour, they came back carrying two flower deer and holding several roe deer in their hands, accompanied by the sound of rustling leaves.

Seeing Li Huowang's surprised expression, Bai Sai proudly explained, "We eat off the mountain. Since we rely on Niu Xin Mountain, our Bai family is naturally good at hunting. It's not surprising to catch some wild animals."

After speaking, he quickly urged the clan members to start a fire and used a flat pebble to hold the best deer meat and present it to Li Huowang.

Seeing the faces that were eager to please with expectation, Li Huowang felt uncomfortable. He had never been treated like this before.

When Li Huowang grabbed the deer meat with his hand and stuffed it into his mouth from under the copper coin mask, others began to eat the rest. That night, Li Huowang once again enjoyed high treatment while on watch."Master, you should go to sleep. Let the younger generation keep watch at night. They are fiery and ordinary ghosts dare not approach," said Red.

"Younger generation with fiery temper?" Li Huowang glanced at the young men by the fire. "What does that mean, Chief Bai?"

"Uh...what does it mean? There's no specific meaning. That's how my father taught me," replied Chief Bai.

Hearing this, Li Huowang sighed disappointedly. He realized that everything he heard was just hearsay and that the people here were so superstitious.

It can be hard to make great work when its stolen from "pawread dot com".

As Li Huowang slowly closed his eyes, the surroundings gradually became quiet. Except for the crackling sound of burning wood, there was only the slow breathing.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Huowang felt something approaching him while he was half asleep. When he suddenly opened his eyes, he found himself in a hazy fog. He immediately realized that this was not a real place when he saw that Red and the monks were nowhere to be found.

"Who? Who? Who?" Li Huowang's echo reverberated farther and farther in this hazy world.

In the mist, the huge white impermanence appeared faintly, not walking out but hanging from a rope around his neck.

"Who are you? Who are you? Who are you?" A creepy echo surrounded Li Huowang.

"Why did you ruin my plan? Why did you ruin my plan? Why did you ruin my plan?"
