Chapter 978: Forbidden to Speak
When the Dragon Team arrived, Village Chief Wei tried his old tricks again, but this group was too vigilant and did not drink his tea. Just as a girl was about to drink the tea, the leader accidentally knocked over the tea bowl with his elbow while scratching his head.
As for the way out of the Great Array, every ti he went out to report, the Demon Cultivator would directly send him instructions through sound transmission, and he would go to the entrance of the stone cave to pick up a Jade Token. As long as he carried that Jade Token, he could go out.
But only one person could go out each ti. His entire family was inside the Array, so even if he went out, he had to return, and upon returning, the Jade Token had to be handed back at the entrance of the stone cave and not kept.
When he and his son delivered people to the cave for the Demon Cultivator’s use, they would shout at the entrance of the stone cave, and then the barrier at the entrance would open, allowing him to take the people inside.
When they ca out and wanted to enter again, there would be another layer of barrier at the cave entrance, making it difficult to enter again.
In other words, he had two thods to enter and exit the Great Array: one was to walk out with the token given by the Demon Cultivator, and the other was to have the Demon Cultivator open the Array Gate to let him walk into the cave!
It took ngyu more than half an hour to retrieve these mories, and digging deeper, it was about his experiences over the years.
As expected, this village chief was not very capable but was genuinely devoted to working for the village, therefore gaining high respect there.
However, when he was young, he made a big mistake—he fell in love with a girl, and got her pregnant, but his mother forced him to marry his current wife. At the ti, he didn’t want to agree, but his mother threatened to kill herself, so he complied.
The girl, carrying his child, jumped off a cliff, leaving him guilty for half his life.
It’s just these mories that made ngyu frustrated: Village Chief Wei’s thod of entering and exiting the Great Array was completely useless to them.
Their intention to find a place to send out a ssage was almost impossible to achieve.
ngyu sighed and released Village Chief Wei.
At that mont, Village Chief Wei woke up, and seeing ngyu, he unexpectedly bowed politely to ngyu, saying, "Hello, auntie."
ngyu almost spat a mouthful of blood. You—a man over forty—are calling , a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl, auntie?
Are you sure you’re not out of your mind?
No, he’s indeed gone mad.
Despite ngyu’s care, after the Soul Search, sothing went wrong with Village Chief Wei’s spiritual body.
However, he didn’t completely turn into a fool; he retained the intelligence of about a five or six-year-old child.
ngyu was quite frustrated, "Do not call auntie."
"Then what do I call you?" Village Chief Wei’s innocent and ignorant gaze at ngyu made her feel guilty.
"Call —" What should she have him call her? She suddenly felt uncomfortable with any title.
"Oh, I understand now. My mom said a woman’s age is a secret. If I call you auntie, is that too old? I should call you sister, right?
Good day, sister. What is this place? Is this your ho? Who am I? Why am I here?" Village Chief Wei’s eyes were filled with confusion.
Even though she knew he had a ntal breakdown, ngyu still felt exasperated.
However, his intelligence wasn’t that of a five or six-year-old; it was at least that of a teenager, and no, his intelligence wasn’t the issue; it was just that his mory reverted to that of a five or six-year-old.
She sternly said to Village Chief Wei, "You’re not allowed to call auntie, and you’re not allowed to call sister. You—you’re forbidden to speak!"
Village Chief Wei quickly covered his mouth. His eyes revealed a mix of fear and curiosity, which was sohow a bit endearing.
