The two of them looked around. This primitive village that few people had set foot in still retained its unique appearance.

"Little kids, what are you playing?”Master Eight asked with a smile.

"Hahaha!"

"Haha!"

The group of children watched as Master Eight ran away laughing. Master Eight's face fell as he turned around and asked,"Lord Zhang, do you think I'm that unlikable to children?”

Zhang Hao also revealed a smile. Only then did he realize that a little girl had stayed behind.

" They don't understand what you're saying," the little girl said timidly as she looked at Master Myna's clothes.

Master Eight turned his head to look. The little girl was dressed in pure black cloth. Her skin was relatively dark, and her big eyes were very lively. There was a strange cuteness to them.

Master Eight finally came back to his senses. Most of the children had never left Whitewave Stronghold, so of course, they did not know Chinese.

"Little girl, what's your name?”Master Eight squatted down and looked at the little girl.

The little girl wasn't afraid of Lord Myna and said slowly,""My name is Krook, and my grandmother is Ke Tuo Yi!”As she spoke, the little girl's face was filled with pride.

Zhang Hao looked at her carefully. The little girl looked a little similar to Ke Tuo Yi.

"Then can you bring our brothers around?”Zhang Hao said slowly to Kroc.

The little girl did not refuse and brought the two of them around.

Soon, the young girl's childish explanation sounded in the stockade, accompanied by laughter from time to time.

Master Eight looked at the innocent little girl in front of him and the curious gazes of the villagers. He turned to look at Zhang Hao.

" Lord Zhang, I believe it now. These people might be problematic, but they aren't bad people. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so honest," Lord Myna sighed.

Master Eight had studied fortune-telling for half his life. He wasn't very good, but he was definitely not wrong when it came to judging people.

This village was somewhat xenophobic, but overall, it should be simple and kind.

Zhang Hao nodded as well. He looked at his surroundings, but he had a different feeling.

"Big brother, big brother, come here quickly. Don't go up here!”Kroc pointed at the mountain behind the village.

Seeing the little girl's terrified expression, Lord Myna's interest was piqued.

"Why can't we go up here?" he asked.”

Kroc looked at Master Eight mysteriously and said in a low voice,""My grandmother said that there are mandrills and man-eating ghosts on this mountain. You must not go up, or you will be eaten!”

Zhang Hao's expression froze as he looked at the ancient tree and the lush forest in front of him.

" There are indeed no signs of development here, but there should be people who have been here before," Zhang Hao explained to Master Eight.

Time passed quickly. Kroc invited the two to his house to play. Zhang Hao thought about it for a while and agreed.

"Big brother, hurry up. My house is just ahead!”Kroc ran forward excitedly, turning around to call out to the two.

Zhang Hao focused his gaze and saw that the bamboo building in front of him was not much different from the other bamboo buildings.

The entire village was built on the mountain, and it was built from top to bottom. This bamboo house was located halfway up the mountain.

"Grandma, I'm back!" As soon as they arrived at the bamboo house, Kroc shouted at the bamboo house.

" Ah, coming, coming." Ke Tuo Yi's voice came from inside. Soon, the old man walked out.

Seeing the two people behind Krook, Ke Tuo Yi was obviously stunned, but he also smiled.

"Little Luo has brought two guests. Please come in!”

Zhang Hao looked at the black mask hanging at the door and strode in. Master Eight paused for a moment. Seeing that Zhang Hao did not hesitate at all, he also walked in.

The bamboo building was divided into two floors. The second floor was where people lived, and the lower floor was where some poultry lived.

When the two of them sat down around the stove, Ke Tuoyi sat beside them and stared at them with his deep eyes.

"Where did you two come from? What are you doing in our White Wave Stronghold?" Ke Tuoyi took a puff of his pipe and stared at the two of them as he asked.

Master Eight was about to say something when Zhang Hao stopped him.

"We came from Changsha and searched for antiques everywhere. I wonder if there are any good things in White Wave Village?”Zhang Hao said with a smile on his face.

However, Ke Tuoyi shook his head." Young man, we don't have any antiques here. You've come to the wrong place. However, you're still a guest from afar. If you're interested, why don't you stay in the stockade for a few more days?”

As he spoke, Ke Tuo Yi pulled out a tea pot from the stove and poured a bowl in front of each of them.

"Try it. The village is not like the outside world. There's nothing good about it.”Ke Tuoyi said as he slowly took a sip.

The golden tea was suffused with the rich aroma of charcoal. Master Eight was a little hesitant, and so was Zhang Hao.

Ke Tuo Yi laughed when he saw Zhang Hao's expression. He pointed at Zhang Hao's chest and said,""Don't worry, child. The thing on your body is very fierce. My little insects are very afraid!”

Zhang Hao was stunned. He picked up the tea bowl and took a sip. The fragrance hit his face and there was a sweetness in his throat.

"Good tea, Old Village, since you can see it, let's get it straight. One of my brothers received a jade ring. The person who sold it to him is dead, but we found out that the item was leaked from you.”Zhang Hao said coldly.
