Max-Level Metaphysician: A Debt Repayment Journey-Chapter 905: Remember the Little Girl

Jiangli did not respond to Xia Xin.

Instead, Qing Yue said, "They seem to be ordinary girls, but the reason they appear in the mountains is unclear."

Xia Xin was taken aback, "Really?"

Qing Yue took a sip of tea and remained silent.

Xia Xin scratched his head.

He knew Qing Yue was more skillful than him.

If Qing Yue said there was no problem, then he might have overthought.

Yet Jiangli remained silent throughout.

Are those two girls normal?

Judging by the reaction of the village chief and his wife upon hearing their names, those two girls seemed abnormal.

Moreover, when Xiu Shu and Meng Huiqi passed by them, Jiangli caught a faint scent of blood.

Like a cup of thick blood plasma covered with a heavy cloth, only able to detect a trace of blood scent.

Normal girls?

She doesn’t seem to be.

Once night fell, everyone became extremely cautious.

Many ate the meal tastelessly.

Only Jiangli seemed very happy while eating.

When the village chief’s wife came to deliver the dishes, she appeared absent-minded, almost spilling the food on Jiangli.

Jiangli hadn’t reacted yet.

Fu Shiyan, next to him, reached out to support her plate.

The village chief’s wife shivered, then returned to her senses, "Sorry, I’m so sorry..."

Fu Shiyan took the plate, placing it on the table.

Jiangli looked at the village chief’s wife’s pale face and asked, "What’s wrong? Since those two girls came in, your face hasn’t looked good. Is there something wrong with them?"

Upon hearing this, everyone suddenly turned their eyes towards her.

The village chief’s wife quickly waved her hand, "No, no, I didn’t say that..."

Jiangli raised an eyebrow, "But the way you’re acting, it seems you’ve already spoken."

The village chief’s wife nervously twisted her apron and turned to leave but paused.

She looked at Jiangli and suddenly said, "Don’t go out tonight, stay well in your room, and don’t eat anything sent by others, just be safe..." free𝑤ebnovel.com

Jiangli’s mind stirred, "Why do you say that?"

The village chief’s wife licked her dry lips, "Anyway, just remember it, young lady..."

After saying this, she turned to leave again.

Jiangli spoke up just then, "Who is Xiu Shu?"

The village chief’s wife paused in her steps, staggered like she was about to fall.

In the next second, without looking at Jiangli, she hurried away.

Her hurried footsteps made her seem like she was being chased by ghosts.

Qing Yue furrowed his brows, "Seems like this Xiu Shu is not that simple."

Jiangli said nothing, stared in the direction the village chief’s wife left, then lowered his head to continue drinking the sweet soup in his bowl.

Fu Shiyan barely glanced at Jiangli, darkening his gaze subtly.

Xia Xin and Yan Guofeng became alert after hearing Qing Yue’s words.

Yan Guofeng had been silent all day, but now he couldn’t hold back, "That... Abbot..."

He looked at Jiangli, hesitatingly, "Abbot, is this Xiu Shu unrelated to my brother’s matters? Shouldn’t we investigate what happened during my brother’s journey?"

Jiangli glanced at him without answering, merely handed him a talisman, "Don’t go out tonight, no matter what happens outside, don’t open the door or come out."

Yan Guofeng’s eyelids twitched violently, a bad feeling like a chill rose from his feet, quickly engulfing him.

Gripping the talisman, his hands trembled.

Jiangli said nothing more, finished the sweet soup, then stood up and pulled Fu Shiyan, "President Fu, stick with me tonight and don’t wander around."
