I reacted and gave him a punch, saying, "What are you doing here? You scared me!"

He looked puzzled and said, "I don't think I know you."

I immediately got angry and raised my voice, saying, "After being brothers for so long, you blocked me for a few thousand bucks, and now you pretend not to know me?"

Liu Fei's expression suddenly became strange, and he stared at me blankly, saying, "Oh, so you know 'him'."

Looking at his appearance, I shivered all over.

I suddenly realized that the Liu Fei in front of me was no longer the Liu Fei I knew.

He glanced at me deeply, turned around, and left.

By the time I reacted, he had already disappeared around a corner.

I hurriedly caught up, but Liu Fei's figure was nowhere to be seen.

The gate of a nearby courtyard was slightly ajar, revealing a gap.

Could Liu Fei be in this courtyard?

I approached the gate slowly and peered inside through the crack.

To my surprise, inside the crack, there was a pair of muddy yellow eyeballs, rolling around.

I was so frightened that I let out a scream and took several steps back.

Creak! The door was pushed open.

It was the old man I had met when I first entered the village.

He grinned at me, revealing a row of incomplete yellow teeth.

"Don't worry, don't worry. It's almost time," he said.

After taking a few glances at me, he swallowed and cleared his throat.

"What secrets does this village hold? What do you want to do to me?" I shouted at him.

He didn't answer and slowly turned his back to me.

With a loud bang, the door closed.

I rushed forward and frantically pounded on the door, but inside it was as silent as death.

Ding Ling Ling Ding Ling Ling, the piercing sound of an alarm clock rang out.

The two sisters were about to come back, and I had to hurry and leave.
