The next day, Zhou Ying informed Gu Chengrui of what she saw, and the two began to pay attention to every move around them.

Especially Zhou Ying, who had been staring at her surroundings because she knew they would not have a good time if anything happened to the Third Prince. They had to do their best to ensure the safety of the Third Prince.

For the next three days, everything went smoothly. However, the black-red color between the Third Prince’s eyebrows became thicker and thicker, and Zhou Ying knew this was the darkness before dawn.

One night, they decided to camp on the outskirts of a village. After the soldiers stopped, a portion of them immediately began setting up camp while their captains went to a well in the village to fetch water.

After Zhou Ying settled down, she saw a mountain nearby and wanted to know if she could find wild food to eat.

She couldn’t take it anymore if all she had to eat daily were dumpling soup and black steamed buns.

She immediately discovered something wrong when she spread out her spiritual senses to ‘look’ at the village.

Firstly, there were too few people. There were only a dozen families, but this wasn’t what triggered her suspicion.

What alerted her was that these people’s houses were very run-down, which meant they were not rich.

However, there were rice and black noodles at their homes, and they all looked very strong.

This was especially true for the laborers. Not only were they strong, but they all walked with a similar footwork pattern. They were not ordinary farmers.

After that, she carefully searched the village and soon found an old man hiding in a house that was almost in ruins, staring at the captain as he fetched water.

His expression was a mix of excitement, nervousness, and seriousness. It was evident that he was up to no good.

Zhou Ying probed her senses into the well. The water was clear, and she did not find anything unusual.

But when she raised her head to look at the captains, she didn’t expect to see their brows covered in a black cloud.

Could it be…

She found Gu Chengrui and told him about this. “I suspect that there’s something wrong with the water. It might have been drugged. What should we do now?”

“Don’t fret. I’ll think of a way.” Gu Chengrui turned around to look for the Third Prince and obtained his permission to enter the village to buy some vegetables.

He brought ten soldiers and walked into the village.

As soon as he entered the village, he quickly understood why Zhou Ying, who had no experience in investigating, could find the problem.

These people were too abnormal. How could they look this muscular in a year of such disaster? He could also faintly sense the killing intent coming off their bodies.

These killers were probably disguised as laborers.

He looked for a woman and asked, “Miss, do you have any extra vegetables at home? Can we want to buy some?”

“No, no, you guys, hurry up and leave.” The woman glanced at him and ran away in a panic.

At the same time, when the people on the street saw this, they immediately turned around and went home. Only a few men stayed around, busy cutting firewood or repairing roofs in the village.

The woodcutter was cutting his wood earnestly, but the roof repairman didn’t look like he was even doing a good job. He didn’t even look like a person who was used to this kind of work.

After confirming his guesses, Gu Chengrui turned around and said, “Fine, since they don’t welcome us, let’s hold on to our rations for a few more days.”

After saying that, he led the group of soldiers back to the military camp and told the Third Prince about the abnormality in the village.’Tm afraid they are bandits from the mountains, so we must be careful.

“Just in case, I’m afraid the well water we drew can’t be drunk. I have to go and check it out.”

The Third Prince turned his head to look at the village, then at carriages filled with sweet potato seeds. He nodded and said, “There’s nothing wrong with being careful. Go ahead.”

“Yes.” Gu Chengrui replied and turned to go to the kitchen. When he saw them pouring water into the pot, he immediately stopped them. “Wait, wait a minute..”
