"Mr. Guo, have you noticed anything strange about the village over the past few days?"
"Strange? Nothing out of the ordinary … Before today, everything has been fine in the village. There was no howling from the Inhuman … Over the past two days, we have investigated with the village chief. There were originally 103 people left in the village, and most of them were the elderly who stayed behind. The families that moved back these few days, including the children, added up to 25 people. None of them have been on the website, and everything is normal. We can confirm this … "Lin Sanjiu said.
"No, that's not what we mean. That Inhuman isn't from your village. According to the preliminary investigation, he's a resident from the other side of town. What we want to ask is, have you noticed, or at least feel, anything about the village that makes you feel that something is not right? "
Guo Pengbin listened to the woman but he still did not understand what she was referring to.
After the battle at the village entrance, he had accepted the debridement and suturing from the Phecda medical team. Compared to Li Rongqin who had to be rushed to the hospital for surgery due to a fractured right hand, his injury was nothing.
Now Yu Qi was in the car with the 2 children while he and the rest cooperated with the Phecda members.
The appearance of Doctor Wang Ruoxiang almost proved that this team did not come because of their call for help. They were already here, and they just happened to be in trouble. If they were even half a minute late, a tragedy would have happened. To him, it was the tragedy of the world collapsing.
Not only Doctor Wang, there were other members who looked different from the other Phecda members. They had the logo of the Special Mobile Force on their uniforms.
This large group of Phecda members were searching the area. They were using their equipment and also their intuition to search.
"Something is not right, it could be some kind of mental condition." Wang Ruoxiang explained, "Like a sudden daze or hallucination?"
The other members who were also being investigated were confused. "No." "I can't sleep well here, I have nightmares, does that count?"
Guo Pengbin was confused. He was reminded of something and said, "Hallucination … I think I did have one."
Captain Lou Xiaoning, who was sitting in a wheelchair, quickly asked, "What's the matter?"
"Just a while ago, I was harvesting rice in the field …" Guo Pengbin recalled and said. He couldn't be sure, "It seemed like I suddenly saw a large area of double vision. It didn't feel right … But maybe I was too tired, and I was about to have a heatstroke, so I felt dizzy …"
The other villagers muttered, "That should be the case. What else could it be?"
However, Wang Ruoxiang and Lou Xiaoning looked at each other and took it seriously.
"Mr. Guo, where is the field you mentioned? Can you take us there? "Wang Ruoxiang asked.
Guo Pengbin's leg did not break. Although he was tired and frightened, he could still walk. Naturally, he nodded and agreed. Soon, he followed the few Special Mobile Force members back to the farm. Uncle Quan and the other villagers who were working there had already left. They were waiting for the Phecda members to make arrangements for them to move.
When he walked through the village, he saw the Phecda members helping the elderly into the 3-wheeled electric scooters.
"Mr. Guo, River Tail Village is temporarily uninhabitable." Wang Ruoxiang said as she revealed some information. "We suspect there is something wrong with this place and we need to investigate it. Therefore, you will need to move temporarily. We will move you to the rendezvous point."
"Okay …" Guo Pengbin knew he could not refuse and he knew this was the most appropriate arrangement but … something was stuck in his throat. He could not help but ask, "Is it safe to move to the rendezvous point?"
Wang Ruoxiang didn't stop walking, but she stopped talking. She didn't say anything easily, as if she didn't want to tell lies to coax people.
After a while, she finally said, "There is no place that is absolutely safe now. If we do not defeat our enemies, there will be no such thing as absolute safety."
Even though this was expected, Guo Pengbin was still disappointed. There was no Shangri-La in this world.
Shangri-La was hard to come by but they only wished for a place that they could call home …
Soon, the group passed through the village to the other side of the farm. Guo Pengbin led them to the few acres of farm. The sweet smell of mung bean soup still lingered in the air. There were more members in the group. They were the search team from the village. There were also a few Zoogs dressed like big cats accompanying them.
One of them was a quiet young woman, it was Deng Ximei.
Guo Pengbin did not know that the Phecda team came to River Tail Village mainly because of Deng Ximei's senses.
Due to the new information brought by Zhou Haorui and Yang Xinxin, they believed that the Alliance of Life Will was related to the foreign world. Deng Ximei also sensed the strange movement of the power of the foreign world … and the closest connection between the Phecda World and the foreign world was none other than Eastern State City. Could there be an overlapping area or a passage connecting the two worlds at Eastern State?
But Eastern State was huge and one week was very short — the Alliance of Life Will might invade another human city in a week's time.
Therefore, the Zoogs sent out a large number of Zoogs to search around Eastern State. In one day, they found several suspicious spots. They were all small villages far away from the city and Deng Ximei chose River Tail Village first.
"We're here, it's just up ahead." By then, Guo Pengbin led the group to the ridge and pointed not far away.
In front of them was an open paddy field. The hand harvester was still parked there, and rows of paddy were neatly cut on the ground. There didn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary, except that the sky was a little gloomy. It could rain at any time in this season.
After Guo Pengbin gave his orders, he was escorted back by two members of Phecda with a stomach full of questions and worries.
On the other side, Lucky slammed his legs against the ridge and said excitedly, "This is it, I can feel it. There's a channel here!"
Wang Ruoxiang and Lou Xiaoning only had a vague feeling but they could not tell whether it was a psychological effect or not. Crow believers like Zhou Haorui and Chen Jiahwa did not have much experience with the foreign world's channel, so they did not say anything.
"I'll go take a look over there …"
Deng Ximei's serene face seemed to move. She walked down the ridge of the field, stepping on the straw that had not yet been harvested, and walked inside.
