In the following period of time, Fade and Quin went out of Capital City and wandered around casually.
Sometimes, they would take the train to an unknown small station and stay with the locals for one or two days to walk around and enjoy the scenery. Sometimes, they would drive to certain sights and see the strange scenery there. At other times, they would find a suitable place to be immersed in nature, and then they would meditate and begin cultivation.
In the blink of an eye, half a month had passed. Fade and Quin had traveled around the mountains and swam in the south, and they were obviously much more relaxed.
Moreover, her cultivation and strength had improved considerably in the past two weeks. Now that she was at the Peak of the Yellow Level, she could be considered an expert in some small cities.
On this day, they got off the train and came to a village called "Spirit Bird Village" which was surrounded by mountains.
It was said that this village was a blessed place with great talents. Decades ago, some people saw spiritual birds flying out of the forest behind the village, which attracted people to watch.
Fade and Quin naturally did not come for this kind of unconfirmed myth. Instead, they came for the natural scenery of Spirit Bird Village.
The village was located in a mountain forest, so the path to the village was not easy to walk on. There were around 30 families living in the village, which maintained an ancient rural style. It was a good place for leisure and relaxation.
Fade took Quin into the village. He looked around and found that the environment was indeed good. Surrounded by dense forests, the mountain springs were tinkling, and there were flowers surrounding the whole village.
The villagers here drank spring water and ate the food they had planted and harvested in the mountains. They were all in high spirits, and they looked very healthy.
The village was not too secluded but the arrival of Fade and Quin still attracted the villagers' attention.
He generously stuffed a handful of bills to them. Then, he looked for a villager's house to stay there for a rest and had a meal.
The living environment in the small mountain village was not very good, but the scenery was beautiful. The two of them lived very comfortably.
The ingredients were also very simple, just some rice and vegetables, but the taste of the food was very good. It was even more delicious than the elaborate ingredients in five-star hotels in the city.
Even Quin, who usually didn't eat too much, couldn't help but eat another bowl of rice.
After dinner, the couple took a stroll in the village. They looked around and took photos. They were quite relaxed.
However, they didn't walk for long. Suddenly, they heard a shout, and then the village was like a pot of boiling water. The villagers rushed out of their houses and ran to a family at the foot of the mountain.
Among the running villagers, Fade and Quin also saw the villagers who were entertaining them. They couldn't help but ask, "Jamar, what's wrong? What happened in the village?"
Jamar said, "Acton, who lived at the foot of the mountain, encountered dirty things in the mountain. He was found and had to be carried down. Now, he can’t make it anymore."
"Dirty things?" Hearing this, Fade couldn't help but squint his eyes.
Quin also raised her eyes and looked a little surprised. She obviously didn't believe in these things.
Jamar, the villager, said with a serious face, "Fade, Quin, believe me. This is really a bit strange."
"At first, we didn't believe in the bewitched either, but just half a month ago, the crippled Old Liu was found dead after he went up to the mountain. Later, when he was carried back, his face was dark, his body was stiff, and he was out of breath."
"There was also a boy from Kobe's family who was only ten years old. A week ago, he was naughty and went to the mountain alone. As a result, after he came back that day, he felt cold all over and became stiff before he was taken to the hospital."
"With the addition of Acton, there are three people who have fallen in only half a month. It's really weird!"
