The Miao Xinjiang region is vast. In addition to cities, there are also mountains and mountains.
The Witch Cult is hidden in these high mountains.
However, even Jin Wansan didn't actually know the specific location of the Witch Cult. He could only tell Ye Longyuan an approximate address.
Because the Witch Cult is very mysterious, even the forces affiliated with the Witch Cult such as the Jin family and the Han family can only come into contact with the branches of the Witch Cult distributed in the city.
Then, the members of the branch are responsible for contacting the headquarters.
As for the specific location of the Witch Cult's headquarters, Ye Longyuan can only find it on his own.
Regarding this point, Ye Longyuan felt relatively indifferent, because he did not expect that the process of finding the Witch Cult would be smooth sailing.
Fortunately, Ye Longyuan moved very quickly, especially after entering the deep mountains and old forests, where there were few people and he didn't have to deliberately hide his strength.
His body was like a bolt of lightning, and he soon arrived deep in a dense forest.
Gradually, the sun sets in the west.
The sunset dyed the entire mountain forest red.
"There is..."
Suddenly, Ye Longyuan's steps slowed down because he noticed a figure flashing in the forest ahead.
This made him frown, and he immediately found a very hidden area and looked forward.
"Hurry, go back quickly!"
Ye Longyuan discovered that they were some plainly dressed, even primitive men.
They have dark skin, their steps are flying, and they hold relatively primitive weapons such as machetes and spears in their hands, as if they are chasing something.
"It's not a woman. It shouldn't be a member of the Witch Cult, but a mountain people who originally existed here!"
Ye Longyuan secretly cursed.
He learned from Jin Wansan that all members of the Witch Cult were women, so these men were definitely not members of the Witch Cult.
And in addition to the Witch Cult, there are also some indigenous people in this mountain, the so-called mountain people.
Most of them live in isolation, living in villages, with little contact with the outside world, and there are various conflicts between them.
Before entering the mountain, Jin Wansan also reminded Ye Longyuan to pay more attention to these mountain people.
I didn’t expect to meet him so quickly!
"According to what Jin Wansan said, these mountain people have some connection with the Witch Cult. Since I have met the mountain people, I might as well follow them and find traces of the Witch Cult!"
Ye Longyuan cursed secretly and sped up to follow.
Those mountain people obviously had other things, and Ye Longyuan himself was very strong and his whereabouts were very hidden, so they didn't discover Ye Longyuan's whereabouts at all.
After a while, Ye Longyuan followed them to a vast open space deep in the forest.
There are some houses made of wood, stone, and hay in this open space, but the number of houses is not many, only about a dozen. It is obviously the village where the mountain people live.
After the two men returned to the village, people in the village gathered from all directions, including an old man wearing animal skins, holding a cane, and with white beard and hair.
It seems that this old man has a very high status in the village and should be the village chief.
The two mountain men came to the village chief and were talking about something, looking very nervous.
As for the village chief and other villagers, after hearing what they said, they were also very nervous and frightened. They talked about each other for a while and seemed extremely noisy.
Ye Longyuan watched all this in the dark.
He felt that something must have happened in this village, but it was far away and he couldn't hear clearly.
"Forget it, never mind!"
Ye Longyuan looked up at the sky and found that it was already very dark, and torches were gradually lighting up in the village.
It’s definitely not possible to travel in the mountains at night, so let’s settle down in the village first!
Thinking of this, he emerged from his hiding place and walked towards the village.
The people in the village were chatting about something when they suddenly saw a person walking over from a distance, which startled them instinctively.
One by one, they clutched various weapons and looked at Ye Longyuan, showing signs of vigilance.
But after seeing Ye Longyuan clearly, the vigilance and hostility in their eyes seemed to be reduced a bit, replaced by more doubts.
"Stranger, what are you doing!"
The village chief asked loudly. He can speak the language of the outside world, and it is quite standard. It seems that he has frequent contact with people outside.
"I am a traveler who came to visit the mountains. Seeing that it is getting late and I have no place to stay, I would like to stay in your village for a night. Is it possible?"
Ye Longyuan seemed polite and courteous.
He was carrying a travel bag on his back, and he looked like an explorer who was traveling.
Those mountain people looked at me and I looked at you, and they communicated quietly for a while, mumbling without knowing what they were talking about.
After a while, the village chief spoke again: "It's not that we won't keep you, but that our village is about to suffer, and it will be in danger if you stay!"
"Danger?"
Ye Longyuan frowned slightly.
"Hey, you, a stranger, wouldn't understand if I told you. Anyway, you'd better leave as soon as possible!"
The village chief waved his hand, looking very helpless.
"I just need a place to sleep!"
Ye Longyuan had no intention of leaving at all, he smiled.
"Brother, it's not that we don't want to keep you. Compared with other villages here, our village is still very willing to contact outsiders. In the past, people who came to the mountains to play got lost, and we would also let them stay for the night..."
Just then, a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old came over.
The little girl was wearing a colorful and beautiful dress full of Miao flavor, and she also had a silver necklace around her neck, which was very shiny.
She blinked her big eyes and said in fluent Mandarin: "But our village is really in danger tonight. If the village can survive the danger safely, brother, you can stay the night..."
There were tears in the little girl's eyes, and she seemed very aggrieved.
Under the flickering of the bonfire, it looked even more endearing.
After a pause, she whispered again: "Actually, it's also because of me. If it weren't for me, everyone wouldn't be in danger..."
This sentence seemed to be spoken to himself, the voice was very low, but Ye Longyuan still heard it.
She is just a little girl, what could she do that would put the entire village in great danger?
This made Ye Longyuan feel very strange.
"Quickly, surround this village!"
While he was thinking secretly, a loud shout and a series of rustling sounds came from the distance.
Ye Longyuan looked for the sound and saw hundreds of people rushing over in the forest!
