On the second day, Yue'er looked very energetic and took the initiative to run up to the nine-tailed fox and hugged him.

"I didn't expect that you usually speak very harshly, but you do things so well!"

Yue'er's sudden move shocked everyone.

No one expected that a person who seemed very lethargic the day before would be so powerful now.

"Tch, if you really want to thank me, why don't you go to the kitchen and help me?"

Even though he was hugged by Yue'er, the nine-tailed fox still took a puff of cigarette and said.

To be honest, the nine-tailed fox was unwilling at first, but who knew that Xue Ling, who was far away, asked him to do it.

But Yue'er didn't know that, so she happily agreed to the nine-tailed fox's condition.

"Okay, seeing as you did so well this time, I will reluctantly agree to it."

From the beginning to now, everyone feels that it is inexplicable. There is no beginning or end at all.

"Senior, can you tell me what is going on?"

Du Yu finally asked. Du Yu might be the only one present who has some leadership skills.

At this time, Yue'er had already let go of the nine-tailed fox, allowing the nine-tailed fox to take a breath.

The nine-tailed fox relaxed and answered the question. After all, it was not a big problem.

"Isn't it just what she said about the village yesterday? I'm going to hand over something, that's all."

After the nine-tailed fox finished speaking, he shrugged nonchalantly, but in fact, he also hid the most important point, but this point was also ordered not to be revealed by Xue Ling.

After everyone finished breakfast, the nine-tailed fox summoned Du Yu to his side alone.

"Senior, what's wrong? Is something wrong?"

Du Yu originally planned to practice other swordsmanship and consolidate his previous swordsmanship, and then see if he could develop a new swordsmanship.

"I would like to ask you to take them to the next village to understand the situation. Of course, you can just take anyone with you."

The nine-tailed fox took a bite of the grapes on the side and said with some commands.

Du Yu didn't feel anything bad about this, but became serious. If the nine-tailed fox asked him to speak alone, it would definitely be because of something.

"Okay, but can I ask the reason? It will be easier for me to take care of people then."

In fact, Du Yu had secretly decided to have Xingyu, after all, he was calm and would not act impulsively.

The nine-tailed fox glanced at Du Yu, as if he had read all Du Yu's thoughts, and then looked away.

"Just that Xingyu."

After hearing what the nine-tailed fox said, Du Yu looked at the nine-tailed fox in surprise.

But then Du Yu lowered his head again, feeling that it didn't matter.

"Okay, I'll go down and clean up first."

After Du Yu finished cleaning up, he went to find Xingyu. It happened that Xingyu did not go far away to practice, but was only near the residence.

After Xingyu saw Du Yu running towards him, he put away the sword in his hand, and then saw Du Yu.

"What's wrong? Are you looking for me?"

Seeing Du Yu coming, Xingyu had already expected that Du Yu would definitely come to him for something important.

Du Yu hadn't communicated much with Xingyu yet, so he didn't know how to speak for a while. After hesitating for a while, he decided.

"That's right, senior said he wanted us to go to that village to investigate. I don't know what he was thinking, so are you willing to go with me?"

After hearing this, Xingyu glanced at Du Yu and said nothing. Du Yu was not easy to talk either. After a long period of dullness, Xingyu finally broke the stiff atmosphere.

"Since he said so, let's go."

Because this was a secret operation, the two went out quietly. When they followed the map given by the nine-tailed fox, they started chatting.

"By the way, you said that this senior asked us to suddenly investigate what happened to this village. Didn't he also say that he donated something to this village in the morning?"

Du Yu felt that what he was most curious about was this. He had clearly donated things to the village, but still asked them to investigate.

In fact, Xingyu doesn't care about these, even these are not the most important thing to him.

It can be said that after knowing the cause and effect, Xingyu no longer paid attention to the things around him.

"Not sure."

Because Xingyu's answer was too cold, Du Yu could no longer continue the conversation and gave up.

Fortunately, this village was not very far from their residence, so they arrived quickly.

To be honest, Du Yu thought that this village was far away, but he didn't expect to arrive soon. He also thought that there were no people nearby.

But when the two of them saw the village, they always had a sense of foreboding, because the entire village seemed to be surrounded by a deathly aura.

The whole village looked dilapidated, with few roofs even having good roofs, and there were flies and bugs everywhere.

Those who don’t know may not even believe that there are people here.

"Can this place really accommodate people? Don't the local officials just care about it?"

Du Yu took a few steps back and looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief.

On the contrary, Xingyu looked at all this indifferently, as if he had seen all this countless times.

"Didn't I say that? The local officials here are corrupt and incompetent."

After Xingyu finished speaking, he walked inside, and Du Yu followed behind.

Although there are still people in this village, everyone does not look like a human being. They are all hungry and skinny, with some dust on their faces.

"No, didn't you say you just donated something to them? How did it become like this?"

Du Yu was very surprised by what he saw. Logically speaking, he should not be so pitiful after donating things.

Xingyu glanced at Du Yu, then turned his head and looked at the people on the roadside.

"Who knows, what if those things never got to them."

This sentence made Du Yu think a lot, because he felt that if the nine-tailed fox wanted to donate, it would definitely be donated on the spot, and it would not be possible for the government to come.

The two walked and walked around, feeling that everything was the same. The house was dilapidated and almost uninhabitable, and most people just sat outside and hugged themselves.

Some of them were in slightly better condition, but they just had a worn-out quilt, but the whole quilt was already dirty.

It seems that this place is worse than Du Yu imagined. He originally thought it was just a slightly poor village, but he didn't expect that it was no longer poor. It was completely unbearable.

"That's all for gathering intelligence today, go back."

After checking, Xingyu was about to turn around and leave, but Du Yu took one last look at the villagers here, and then followed him. *
