"There's no better way now, so let's go in. I really don't believe there's a place in this world that can trap me."

Thinking this, Chen Ang rushed in without looking back.

Although Shui Linglong was a bit afraid of this place, compared to it, she was even more afraid of that insane organization, so she followed Chen Ang into the mountain range very firmly.

Just as they walked into this place, the fog around them seemed to scatter, and a road was revealed.

"This doesn't look as terrifying as the legends say, does it? Why don't we just follow this road forward?" Chen Ang was also curious in his heart and simply suggested to Shui Linglong.

Shui Linglong tentatively wanted to leave this place again, but as soon as she walked out of the mountain range, she could no longer feel Chen Ang's aura, so she quickly turned back and told Chen Ang about this.

To this, Chen Ang also understood the cause of this matter.

"I think some expert must have set a trap inside. I'm afraid if we really continue to go deeper, we will never be able to come out again."

However, if they continued to stay in this place and someone came looking for them, they would have no way to escape again.

And since the expert here could do this, they must also have extraordinary skills in setting up this barrier. Perhaps they could give them some guidance and help.

Although this was only Chen Ang's one-sided thought, as long as there was a chance, he had to try it.

Holding this thought, Chen Ang soon acted and followed the road forward.

The two had only walked for about ten minutes when the scenery around them was completely different, and the road back had split into several forks. This was clearly a kind of illusion.

Although this illusion didn't look very powerful, the fact that it could make everyone unable to leave this place proved that this thing had its unique features.

"This road looks so long, but I don't feel any danger. This place is really quite strange." Shui Linglong said.

Shui Linglong was a member of the Mermaid Race, and people in their race could feel the danger nearby, even the danger in the near future.

But at the moment, Shui Linglong couldn't feel any crisis, which proved that the end of this road was safe.

Unless this illusion could even intercept perception.

Thinking of this, Shui Linglong felt a bit worried. After all, she was the one who recommended Chen Ang to come here. If something really happened, she would definitely feel guilty.

However, looking at Chen Ang, he didn't seem to care about this matter.

The two walked down quietly like this. Without knowing it, Shui Linglong felt as if she had forgotten time, and the scenery around them gradually changed from spring to scorching summer.

"Chen Ang, do you feel that something is wrong? Why is the weather in this place different from the outside?"

To Shui Linglong's question, Chen Ang didn't make a sound but continued to move forward silently. Shui Linglong felt inexplicably stifled, but she could only continue to follow.

And as they continued to walk down like this, they finally saw rows of houses, and they didn't know how, but they had actually arrived on a small mountain.

The road in front of them led straight down the mountain, which meant that this should be the destination.

"Let's go down and see what's going on here." Chen Ang finally spoke.

Shui Linglong still had many other doubts in her heart, but it didn't seem to be the time to ask these questions.

Choosing silence again, the two continued to walk down. This time, they saw many people in the houses, and these people were also quite curious about their arrival.

"What is the reason for your entry? If it's just because of fleeing, you've come to the right place."

The other party's tone sounded quite kind. Seeing this, Chen Ang also asked his own doubts.

"Then what if it's because of curiosity that we broke in?"

Hearing this, the man also fell silent.

Then he gave them their opinion.

"If that's really the case, the end of this village is the village chief's house. You can ask him for a solution."

After saying this, they also sighed deeply.

From his words, Chen Ang could also determine that it was definitely not easy to get out.

As for what would happen if they went to the village chief's house, he could perceive that this would definitely not be a good thing.

Therefore, he didn't make such a choice but continued to ask the man: "Then besides the option of going to the village chief's house, how should fleeing be handled?"

"Fleeing is easy to handle. Look to see if there are any empty houses here, or you can build one yourself. You two young people are strong, so this shouldn't be a difficult task for you."

"But there is one point: since you have entered our place, don't mention the things from the past anymore, otherwise there may be severe punishment."

Chen Ang was also interested in what the man said, so he continued to ask.

"Could it be that someone has been punished? Regarding this matter, no one should be forbidden to ask, right?"

"You really hit the nail on the head with that question. This indeed cannot be explicitly stated in the village, but when someone is really punished, you will also know what the punishment is."

"In short, it's definitely something you wouldn't want to endure."

This person could be considered warm-hearted to be able to speak to this extent to a stranger.

Therefore, Chen Ang also remembered the other party's appearance.

"Brother, thank you very much. I wonder if you are willing to tell me your name? If there is a chance, I can invite you to eat and drink later, right?"

"Haha, that's possible. This place is not big, but after tossing and turning, there are only a few households left here."

The other party sighed deeply again. These words were quite meaningful, but it was clearly not easy to understand them all at once.

"Since that's the case, I'll go back to deal with the problem of staying first. As for you, I will visit again when I have time."

Saying this, Chen Ang took Shui Linglong and left.

Walking to a place where no one was around, she then asked: "So, there is no danger here, but there is no way out? But are we going to stay in this place for a lifetime?"

"Of course not. I promised my wife that I must go back, but this matter is not urgent. We can adjust our bodies first. Anyway, it's not urgent for this moment."

He didn't believe that those people wouldn't find this place.

If Shui Linglong was really that important to him, they would definitely break in, or he might be able to see what happens when someone violates the rules during this time.

It wouldn't be too late for them to make a decision then.

Shui Linglong was quite impressed by Chen Ang's calmness.

Thinking about it, the other party was indeed right. Since they couldn't think of a solution now, it was better to live well in the present.

Her physical condition indeed couldn't withstand any more fighting. After the forced teleportation, she was also weak to an unprecedented degree.

"Since that's the case, we still have to find a place with water. After all, I am from the Mermaid Race. Only by living in the water can my body recover faster."

Chen Ang nodded.

This place didn't look small. Since these people could live here, there must be a place where they could use water.

And the forest on the other side looked like it was often walked by people, and there were many traces of movement on the grass.

Following this road, they should also be able to gain something.

Without delay, seeing that the sky was about to darken, the two immediately entered the forest. Just as they walked into the forest, he heard the sound of gurgling water in the forest.

Shui Linglong immediately became excited.

"There is a mountain spring here, and there should be a water pool. If a wooden house can be built here, Chen Ang, can you stay in this forest?"

"That's no problem."

Although the request made by the other party was a bit strange, with his physical fitness, it was completely fine for him to live here.

And Shui Linglong made such a request, which should also be for the safety of the two of them.

Although she had turned into a normal human form now, she didn't know when she would turn into that strange form again. If seen by others, it would indeed be inevitable to be criticized.

"You go down to the water and try it first. We are not familiar with the situation here. If there is any problem in the water, it will be even harder to handle."

To this, Shui Linglong waved her hand quickly.

"No, you can rest assured about this. As a fish, I can sense the water. The water here is all high-quality mountain spring water. I will definitely be fine if I stay in it, although it may not be as comfortable as seawater."

Saying this, Shui Linglong jumped directly into the water.

The water surface splashed layers of waves, and the woman who was originally in a normal human form had now returned to the state of a mermaid.

Unlike the first time they met, this time Shui Linglong had no previous depression around her, but instead appeared a bit lively and agile.

And only now did he discover that the woman beside him was indeed quite beautiful.

This couldn't help but make him think of Shui Linglong's identity.

Although she didn't mention it directly to him, they also knew some of each other's past after they concluded the Spirit Servant contract.

Of course, what Shui Linglong knew about him was definitely less.

And because he didn't deliberately seek it, some information that she didn't want to reveal to the outside world was not forcibly transported to his mind.

However, he still clearly knew that she should belong to the role of a mermaid princess, her status was not low, and her ability was quite extraordinary.

But Shui Linglong never took the initiative to mention these things, and she didn't have any young lady's style in her actions. ===== CHAPTER 1059 =====
