The brothers stopped and each found a place to sit down and rest. Although they were not as exhausted as Old Tian, they were still tired.
"Old Tian, how far are we from the village?" Sheng Fenghua sat beside Old Tian and asked.
"We've only walked a third of the way. There's still two-thirds of the way to go," Old Tian said as he recalled. The mountain road was not easy to walk. It would take another two to three hours to reach the village.
"Is this the only way to the village?"
"Yes, it's the only way."
"Then how did you deliver the food? Did you pick it up?"
"Yes, I found a few people to carry the food here. Then, the people from the village will come to pick it up. The people in charge of carrying the food went straight back, and I followed them to collect the money. "
"Isn't the village supposed to be self-sufficient? Why would they still go out to buy food? "
"I'm not sure. They only buy food once a year. They probably grow most of it themselves since the people from the village rarely go to the town anyway. "
"Right, I heard that people who go to the village get sick after coming out. Is that true?"
"Sick? Who said that? I'm not sick. I've been there a few times, and I'm fine every time I come out. "
"Is that so? That means the rumor is false. "
"Of course it's false. I'm fine."
Sheng Fenghua chatted with Old Tian for about ten minutes before she stood up and said, "Let's go. Let's continue on our way."
Everyone stood up and followed behind Old Tian, heading towards the direction of the village. However, they had only taken a few steps. Sheng Fenghua and Qin Feng heard the voices of their comrades in their earpieces.
"Reporting, Captain. There's a sentry up ahead."
"How far are you from the village now?"
"About a kilometer."
"Be careful. Find out the number and location of the enemy sentry."
"Understood!"
After a brief exchange, the group moved forward again. Sheng Fenghua caught up with Old Tian and asked, "Old Tian, was there anyone standing guard outside the village when you came last time?"
"Standing guard?" Old Tian was taken aback. After a while, he said, "No, I followed the villagers in and didn't see anyone standing guard."
Sheng Fenghua saw that Old Tian didn't know and didn't ask further. Instead, she quickened her pace toward the village.
Since the scout had said that there was a sentry, Sheng Fenghua and the rest didn't even turn on their flashlights and moved forward in the dark. Fortunately, there was a moon in the sky, so they could see the road clearly. It wasn't completely dark.
However, it wasn't convenient to walk like this. Therefore, even though Old Tian had purposely quickened his pace, he was not walking fast.
Seeing that Old Tian was not fast enough, Sheng Fenghua gestured to Qin Feng and decided to leave Old Tian alone. They would leave first.
Qin Feng thought about it and said to Old Tian, "Old Tian, tell us the route and we'll go there ourselves. If you're brave enough, you can go back by yourself. Tian's Sheng. If you are, you, Tian's Sheng, Tian 'Tian' Tian '.
Hearing Qin Feng's words, Old Tian thought about it and agreed. "Fine, I won't go. You guys go by yourselves. Just follow this road and you'll reach it. "
"Thank you!" Qin Feng thanked Old Tian and led his men along the mountain path.
Old Tian stayed where he was and watched the group disappear. A strange smile appeared on his face as he turned and walked in the other direction.
