The Village
Three months later.
Fang Yuan, Tantai Guihu and their men first travelled by car, then rented donkeys and equipment before venturing deep into the mountains.
"Old Tan, I hope you know your way."
Fang Yuan was rather happy with Tantai Guihu.
Although Tantai Guihu was knowledgeable and well-versed in the arts of exorcism, he was hopeless at navigation. After being led down the wrong paths several times, even Fang Yuan had become annoyed.
As for why Fang Yuan addressed Tantai Guihu as Old Tan, it was because he did not want to acknowledge their 'generational gap'.
"It's definitely here. It can't be wrong!"
Tantai Guihu was assertive.
"Of all the spots I have identified, it has come down to this one last place."
As he spoke, he noticed how dishevelled everyone looked and could not help but feel a pang of guilt.
