Chapter 1237

The brothers stopped and each found a place to sit down and rest. Although they were not like old Tian, they were tired.

“Old Tian, how far is it from here to the village? ” Sheng Fenghua sat beside old Tian and asked.

“We just walked one-third of the way, and there are still two-thirds of the way, ” old Tian recalled and said. The mountain road was not easy to walk. It would take two to three hours to get to the village.

“Is this the only way to the village? ”

“Yes, this is the only way. ”

“Then how did you send the grain? Did you pick it up? ”

“Yes, I found a few people to pick up the grain here. Then the villagers would come to pick it up. The People in charge of picking up the grain would go back directly, and I would follow them to collect the money. ”

“Didn’t they say that the village is self-sufficient? Why would they go out to buy grain? ”

“I’m not sure about that either. They buy grain at most once a year. Most of it is grown by themselves. Anyway, the people in the village rarely go to the town. ”

“Oh right, I heard that people who have been to that village will get sick when they come out. Is that true? ”

“Sick? WHO said that? I’m not sick. I’ve been there a few times. I’m fine every time I come out. ”

“really? So that means that the rumor is false. ”

“It must be false. I’m fine. ”

Sheng Fenghua chatted with old Tian without saying a word. About ten minutes later, she stood up and said, “let’s go. Let’s continue on our way. ”

Everyone stood up and followed old Tian again, heading toward the village. However, they hadn’t even taken a few steps. Sheng Fenghua and Qin Feng heard their comrades’voices through their earphones.

“reporting, captain. There’s a sentry ahead. ”

“How far are you from the village now? ”

“about a kilometer. ”

“Be careful. Find out the number and location of the sentry. ”

“UNDERSTOOD! ”

After a few simple exchanges, the group moved forward again. Sheng Fenghua caught up with old Tian in front and asked, “old Tian, when you came here before, were there people standing guard outside the village? ”

“Standing Guard? ” Old Tian was stunned. After a while, he said, “No. When I came here, I followed the people in the village. I didn’t find anyone standing guard. ”

Sheng Fenghua saw that old Tian didn’t know, so she didn’t ask any more questions. Instead, she made old Tian speed up and go toward the village.

Because the comrades who were scouting the way said that they had found a sentry, Sheng Fenghua and the others didn’t even turn on their flashlights. They just walked in the dark. Fortunately, there was a moon in the sky, so they could see the way clearly. It wasn’t completely dark.

However, it wasn’t very convenient to walk like this. Therefore, even if old Tian deliberately sped up, he didn’t walk fast.

Seeing that old Tian’s speed wasn’t good, Sheng Fenghua gave Qin Feng a few hand signals and decided to leave old Tian alone. They left first.

Qin Feng thought for a moment and said to old Tian, “old Tian, tell us the route and we’ll go alone. If you have the guts, you can go back on your own. If you don’t dare to go back, you can wait for us here. What do you think? ”

Hearing Qin Feng’s words, old Tian thought for a moment and then agreed. He said, “alright, I won’t go. You guys go by yourselves. Follow this road and you’ll reach it. ”

“thank you! ” Qin Feng thanked old Tian and led his brothers along the mountain road, flying ahead.

Old Tian stayed where he was and watched the group disappear. A strange smile appeared on his face as he turned around and walked in another direction.
