e warned.

”Lunar December Eighteenth…
could it be a village? ” Bai Lingmiao muttered to herself.

Her words were also Li Huowang ’s thoughts.
The only information he could get from Master Jingxin about Lunar December Eighteenth was that it was red.

As Li Huowang and the others approached, the women washing clothes were the first to notice them.
They picked up their clothes and whispered to each other as they walked towards the village.

As this large group of people with black veils and bamboo hats approached, they obviously attracted the attention of the villagers.
Groups of young adults holding some farm tools gathered at the entrance of the village, with a guarded look in their eyes.

”Outsiders! What are you doing in our Wu family village? Are you passing by or visiting relatives? ” shouted an old man with a goat beard from afar.

Li Huowang ’s gaze swept over the faces of all the villagers, but he didn ’t see anything unusual.
From the surface, this seemed to be just like a normal village.

”Could Lunar December Eighteenth be here? ” Li Huowang wondered.

When he heard the village chief ’s second sentence, Li Huowang led his group over and opened the map in front of them, bowing and presenting it to the village chief.

”Excuse me, is the location on this map your village? ”

”What? You ’re asking for directions? ” The old man took the map and began to whisper to the people next to him.

Li Huowang stared at their faces intently, observing any expression they made.

After a long discussion, the village chief handed the map back with both hands.
”Outsider, you ’ve got the wrong place.
The location on this map is two or three dozen miles away from here. ”

”Wrong place? We haven ’t arrived yet? ” Li Huowang quickly calculated the distance from An Ci An to here in his mind.
Master Jingxin said it was two hundred miles, and he wasn ’t a machine, so a little error seemed normal. ”Hehehe, my apologies, I was reckless and ended up at the wrong place. ” Li Huowang politely bowed to the people in front of him.

”But, sir, the sun is setting soon.
Can we stay here for the night? We ’ve been on the road for half a month and we ’re quite tired. ”

”Well… ” The village chief looked at Li Huowang and his companions with obvious suspicion.

”Sir, please be kind and let us stay for the night. ” Li Huowang smiled and leaned in, his long robe brushing against the village chief ’s hand.

Feeling a slight weight in his palm, the village chief ’s expression changed and he pinched his fingers.

”Alright, our west wing is empty, you can stay there.
But remember, just for one night. ”

As the two carriages rolled towards the village on the moss-covered stone road, Gouwa leaned in and whispered, ”Senior Li, didn ’t we go to the wrong place? ”

Li Huowang glanced sideways and caught sight of the villagers peeking out from behind the door.

”Maybe we didn ’t go to the wrong place.
Maybe this is where we ’re supposed to be. ”

After being out for so long, the most important thing he had learned was that he could only believe a person ’s words to a certain extent.

Since the evil spirit on the 18th of the twelfth lunar month could take on any form, a complex village like this would undoubtedly be a very convenient hiding place.

He didn ’t know if it ate people or not, but if it did, this village would be a very convenient feeding ground.

His eyes began to search for any red objects in the village, but even after entering the houses, he couldn ’t find any red.

Standing under the village archway, the village chief clasped his hands and looked at the outsiders in front of him.

”Let me make this clear, Wujiacun has many rules that have been passed down from the previous generation.
We cannot change them.
If you want to stay here, you must follow the rules.
If you can ’t, then leave now. ”

”Rules? ”
