C1550 Inn
"I say, Zhou, can you not be so swift and decisive when we do things? You should at least let me finish my sleep, right?" Ju Zhong shook his pajamas and said helplessly.
Zhou Yi raised his eyebrows, "You're just a cultivator, what are you sleeping for? How can you have that much sleep?"
Ju Zhong's face twitched.
He was indeed lazy. If he could be as diligent as the other cultivators, he might be able to advance another level of his cultivation.
He spent all the time others spent in meditation, all the time he spent sleeping.
When others used their training time, he would use it to sleep.
Now that he heard Zhou Yi's words, Ju Zhong felt ashamed.
He quickly changed the topic, "Where are we right now?"
Zhou Yi looked around, "I'm not sure either. It should be within Miao Jiang's range. I don't know which mountain exactly."
Ju Zhong sighed. In this Miao Jiang city, every hill had their own rules. If they broke their taboo, it would get them into some small trouble.
However, there should be a small town at the bottom of the bamboo forest. They planned to stay in the small town for the night before making any further plans.
Ju Zhong glanced at his own clothes and said embarrassedly, "It's not good for me to go to town like this."
Zhou Yi had already walked forward. After hearing his words, he stopped and said, "I think the result will be better if you can take it all off."
With that, Zhou Yi walked away.
Ju Zhong looked at the back of Zhou Yi's back, unable to finish his sentence.
However, he remembered that he still had some spare clothes for his storage ring, so he quickly took them out and changed.
However, when he finished changing and raised his head, Zhou Yi had already disappeared from his sight.
Ju Zhong: "..."
Ju Zhong was speechless. If the two of them were to get separated here, then something really must happen to them.
Since Zhou Yi's cultivation was very high, he was naturally not afraid.
But he couldn't do it, if someone really drugged him, wouldn't he lose his life?
Thinking about that, Ju Zhong suddenly got scared.
Thus, he stood in the bamboo forest and yelled out.
Before Zhou Yi could finish shouting the two words, the person had already appeared in front of him and pulled him to the side while covering his mouth.
"Shut up!" Zhou Yi communicated with him telepathically.
Ju Zhong nodded.
At the same time, he felt that it was strange. What on earth could make Zhou Yi so scared?
Soon after, his gaze fell on the outside of the bamboo forest.
He then saw a group of people slowly walking toward him from outside the bamboo forest.
The person in the lead shook a small bell in his hand and said something unknown before throwing a string of yellow paper money towards the sky.
Dong!
A unified voice came from behind that person.
Ju Zhong's eyes slowly widened. Even his pupils kept enlarging.
The scene that he had previously only seen on television had now appeared in front of him alive and well.
There seemed to be a slight tremor in his voice as he said, "A living person chasing a corpse?"
Zhou Yi nodded.
Actually, Zhou Yi wasn't afraid. There were many people who knew about this. Since they didn't have any relationship with each other, it would be better not to offend their taboo.
Thus, Ju Zhong watched helplessly as the couple passed in front of him.
There were about seven or eight people in this group. Other than the one walking at the front who was alive, almost all of them were dead.
About ten minutes later, they disappeared from the two's line of sight.
"Zhou, after seeing this group of people, I can finally confirm that we are in the southern territory." Ju Zhong patted his chest and said.
"Can we really find wizards here?" Zhou Yi was indeed not particularly knowledgeable about this.
Ju Zhong nodded, "Sure. Did you see that group of people just now? They were just fed with Venomous Insect s from the corpses. Actually, the ones that are truly effective are the Venomous Insect s in their bodies. "
Zhou Yi nodded, "So it's like that. Then we should hurry out of the bamboo forest and find an inn to stay the night. When we wake up tomorrow morning, we will think of a way to ask around."
Ju Zhong nodded.
The two of them left the bamboo forest and searched the town for traces of the inn.
It didn't look like a big place, but there was an inn in the corner.
This inn was built out of bamboo and was divided into two floors.
When the two of them entered, the front desk girl was lying on the table, dozing off.
"Beautiful lady, can I have two rooms?" Ju Zhong knocked on the table and asked in a low voice.
The girl at the front desk raised her head in a daze, "I'll give you the keys, the last two rooms are ready!"
After saying that, he threw the two keys onto the table.
She didn't care if Zhou Yi and Ju Zhong really wanted to live here, she just laid down on the table and fell asleep again.
Ju Zhong took the keys and turned his head around. He looked at Zhou Yi embarrassedly, "They don't want money here. Don't they need to register here?"
Zhou Yi shrugged, "It's my first time here so I don't know."
Afterwards, the two of them took the keys upstairs.
The bamboo building was built very firmly, so no crunching sounds could be heard as they walked on it.
When they reached the top floor, they found that all the doors were tightly shut. Only the last two rooms near the end of the corridor were open.
"Looks like it's these two rooms." Ju Zhong walked forward happily when he thought of how he could sleep.
However, Zhou Yi felt that something was wrong.
Even though it was midnight and everyone was sleeping, there was no sound coming from the room.1
It was as if he and Ju Zhong were the only two people in the house.
Then he opened his perspective to see what was going on in those rooms.
But he didn't expect that even though there was only a thin layer of bamboo door, he wouldn't be able to see the situation inside.
At the same time, Ju Zhong had already walked to the door of his room.
"Wait a minute!" Zhou Yi suddenly said.
Ju Zhong did not understand, "What's the matter?"
"Come and sleep in the same room as me." Zhou Yi glanced at Ju Zhong and said.
"Huh?"
"Ah what? "Hurry up and come in!" Zhou Yi waved his hand and Ju Zhong was dragged into the room. Then, the door closed behind him.
"Zhou, did you discover something in the hotel?"
After turning on the lights in the room, Ju Zhong started to walk around the room.
It was very strange. Just now, when they were walking outside, they clearly felt that the house was very sturdy. However, once they entered the room and stepped on the bamboo on the floor, a creaking sound could be heard.
It was as if the bamboo was on the verge of breaking due to its age of disrepair.
Zhou Yi's gaze swept the surroundings slowly. The room's decoration was still quite tidy. Other than the bed, there was a pot of flowers on the windowsill.
But what was wrong?
