Throughout this time, Yang Jian stayed in his hometown with Jiang Yan for about seven or eight days. Due to the supernatural events, the village was not lively but rather desolate and quiet, as part of the villagers had died in their nightmares, another portion had been taken away, and the remaining had to deal with funerals.
Although some of the younger villagers returned in the midst of it all, they were lured back by the five million that Yang Jian had offered.
To avoid any trouble and entanglements, he and Jiang Yan decided to leave in the car on the morning of the eighth day.
However, his mother Zhang Fen didn't want to leave her hometown so soon and wished to stay a while longer. Yang Jian didn't insist, realizing that the village was safe now and a few more days wouldn't be problematic. If anything did arise, he could immediately rush back from the city, which was less than thirty miles away.
As for his cousin Xiao Yuan.
