"Awesome! Awesome, Ye-ge!!"

Jing Yan was excitedly gesticulating near the Bone Shell, almost incoherent.

The others were in similar states.

If it weren't still raining outside, they would have lifted Fang Yue high up in the air by now.

"We succeeded! We succeeded!"

"We defended Guyue Village! We defended Guyue Village!"

"Captain Ye! Captain Ye! Captain Ye!"

The crowd cheered in unison, and as they shouted, they began to wipe away tears, crying, laughing, and excited all at once.

Looking back at the ravaged Guyue Village, and then at the few dozen villagers who remained.

They might say they defended Guyue Village, but everyone knew in their hearts what they had actually lost.

Hua Wuye, Lord Han, Doctor Hong...

Countless familiar friends from childhood had been killed by the strange occurrences that night!

It seemed they had defended everything, yet it seemed they had defended nothing at all.

Only the tears flowing from their eyes were real.

Lin Ling wiped away her tears, watching Fang Yue from afar, her emotions surging, unable to calm down for a long time.

A true man should have such a day, standing out like a hero, shielding everything like a shield!

At that moment, Fang Yue's image transformed into a symbol in Lin Ling's and everyone else's hearts, sacred and glorious!

But the next moment, everyone suddenly cried out in alarm.

Because they saw Fang Yue, who had been standing still, suddenly fall straight down to the ground.

The night rain continued, and a few people instinctively wanted to rush out and bring Fang Yue back.

Fortunately, Lin Ling was calm enough at this time. She exerted the authority of the captain, had people report their individual Dan Poison situations, and then, combining that with their actual physical condition, she arranged for Jing Yan, Tian Dan Zhi Yuan Wu, and two members of the guard team to go to Fang Yue and bring him back to shelter from the rain.

All of their medicine was gathered and handed over to these four people.

This was the first time Tian Dan Zhi Yuan Wu had been entrusted with such an important mission, and had been given such high expectations by so many people.

Feeling excited, she patted her chest, guaranteed to bring Fang Yue back safely, and the four of them rushed out into the night rain.

They popped pills and ran wildly.

When she reached Fang Yue's side, Tian Dan Zhi Yuan Wu cautiously checked his breathing.

After confirming that Fang Yue had merely fainted, she immediately cooperated with Jing Yan and the other two to carry him back.

One person carried each leg, popping pills with their free hand, and quickly ran back.

Tian Dan Zhi Yuan Wu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone cheered immediately, surrounding Fang Yue.

"What are you celebrating?"

Just as everyone was rejoicing, a voice suddenly rang out from the side.

Tian Dan Zhi Yuan Wu was stunned for a moment. She looked back, and her expression changed drastically, almost fainting from fright.

"G-g-ghost!!!"

She scrambled back into the crowd, her face pale with fear.

Everyone looked over there in confusion, and their pupils contracted simultaneously.

"Lord Han?!"

That's right, what stood before them was Lord Han's... head.

Only a head, no body.

The lone head blinked its eyes as if it were alive.

"It's me, I'm still alive."

Was it really Lord Han?!

Everyone trembled with excitement at first, but soon, Lin Ling calmed down. She used the Strange Detection Talisman and asked questions that only Lord Han would know, making Lord Han not know whether to laugh or cry.

"It's really me. Old Chen couldn't kill me. But I can't beat him either."

Lord Han sighed in frustration, "Deeply infected by [Nightfrost Erosion], I fell to the Half-Rain level. My current strength is ultimately lacking. Now that I've become like this, I'm merely alive. But I wasn't going to live long anyway, so this is fine too."

After confirming that it was indeed Lord Han, everyone cheered.

This was the best news of the night, besides Fang Yue's victory over Old Chen.

Although it was just a head, with Lord Han in charge, everyone had a backbone again, and they began to discuss how they were going to survive.

"Of course we're going to rebuild Guyue Village! We were born in Guyue Village, we'll die in Guyue Village. So many corpses haven't even gone cold yet, why would we want to leave?"

Someone offered a suggestion.

But more people shared Lin Ling's thoughts.

"Guyue Village is ruined. Lord Han is severely injured, Captain Ye's life is uncertain, and there aren't even enough of us left to form a guard team for daily patrols."

"That's right. Although we all love Guyue Village, the fact is that we no longer have the ability to survive on our own. Only by asking the Qing Si Sect to send people to help can we rebuild the village. Until then, we can't defend the broken Guyue Village with our own strength."

These people were making a lot of sense, and everyone knew it, but emotionally, it was hard to accept.

Lord Han was about to say something, but then he saw the silent Lin Ling suddenly stand up.

"We are people of Guyue Village, Guyue Village is our home, and that will never change! And we're not abandoning Guyue Village, we're just going to a safe place to rest for now. Once the Qing Si Sect sends people to rebuild Guyue Village, we'll return."

After a pause, Lin Ling looked around at everyone, staring into each of their eyes, and said, "I, Lin Ling, swear here! You are the ones I brought out of the village, and when Guyue Village is rebuilt one day, I will definitely bring you back!"

Lin Ling's words finally gave the others some comfort.

The people who had been making the most noise gradually quieted down.

"Then where should we go to settle down temporarily? Should we go rely on distant relatives?"

Speaking of distant relatives, some people began to chatter.

Most of them had distant relatives in other large villages, but they were scattered all over the country, and no consensus was reached.

After all, distant relatives were, in the end, only distant relatives of one or two people.

The others were the same as coming to a strange big village, without a sense of belonging or identity, and they resisted in their hearts.

"Let's go to Qing Si County," Lin Ling suddenly said.

"Qing Si County? But that's very far from us..."

"Yeah, who knows how many dangers we'll encounter along the way."

Even so, most people shut their mouths when they heard they were going to Qing Si County, and there were fewer objections.

For these villagers who hadn't left the village many times.

The county seat was, more or less, something to yearn for.

Lord Han gave Tian Dan Zhi Yuan Wu a look.

Tian Dan Zhi Yuan Wu immediately pouted, reluctantly rotating Lord Han's head ninety degrees, a complete tool person.

She had previously logged off to call Fang Yue, but no one answered, and then she hurriedly logged back on, but she didn't see Fang Yue wake up in the game.

She was really worried that something might have happened to Fang Yue, because Wei Ba had told her before that the person in the neighboring boys' school who had an accident while playing the game really had an accident while playing the game!

So this game really could cause problems in reality!

"Fang Yue will be okay, right..."
