They did not want to involve themselves in this irrelevant fight. This was Nelsonville, where the old man’s surname
was Nelson. Anthony donated 1 million dollars under the old man’s name to the charity to build the road, the
schools, and even the cemetery. As long as one was buried with a memorial, they would have names when they
were in the ghost town, xo.com fast updateand they would have a rather pleasant life there.
The Crawford family did not care about the commotion among the old man’s relatives; they could fight among
themselves however they liked. They handed the urn to the village head, and he promised to do his best. After all,
he just received a million-dollar donation; he was overwhelmed, as was the entire village. Everyone treated the
donation as their own money, and they promised to take good care of the urn! Aiden’s relatives were the only ones
dissatisfied; they felt that he was dumb to give out all his money! And they knew that they could not get it back
from the entire village. They were devastated by the fact that everyone was getting richer except them.
Lilly took out a bunch of ritual papers, and she mumbled and drew a circle on the ground. She then wrote some
words and threw the ritual papers out. They were burning; she sent billions of dollars to the old man and Brenda in
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtthe underworld. Everything was settled, and no one had any regrets. Polly danced and said, “He, he! The end!” Lilly
was shocked. Huh, this isn’t the ending! Blake opened the car door and said, “Let’s go, Lilly!” Everyone was gone
before Aiden’s relatives could pester them to get some benefits. None of them could catch up to the Crawford
family.

Josh asked in the car, “Where should we go next?” Bettany answered sternly, “Back home, it’s time to go back to
school.” Hannah groaned, “Oh no!” She did not bring any homework, and she had to finish all of them in a short
time if they went back now. Out of sight, out of mind! I don’t want to go back! Lilly said with empathy, “Hannah, you
should complete your homework as early as possible! Hannah refused and Josh said, “If we go back now, you only
have to complete three days worth of homework.” Hannah snorted, “As long as I don’t go back, I don’t need to do
homework!”
The adults made up their minds that they had to go back; after all, the children had to have some self-discipline.
Hannah was unhappy with their decision. Melody stared outside the window and got lost in her thoughts. The old
man was from the village inside the Poncook Summit, and they could see mountains outside the window now. Lilly
got closer to her and asked, “Aunty, are you thinking about Mr. Shaw?” She hurriedly replied, “No. I was thinking
that there are a lot of villages around here.” Lilly also looked outside, and indeed, there were a lot of villages. Some
looked tiny from afar, and one could barely see them.
“Who are they?” Lilly pointed at the hillside opposite them. There were some worn-out tile houses at the bottom of
the mountain, and there was a road leading up to the hill. There were a few young men running down the hill. Blake
glanced in that direction, and he said, “Let’s go now.” He pressed on the accelerator. Ivan suddenly said, “That’s my
dad.” Melody asked, “Mr. MacNeil, what are you doing?” Bettany wondered, “Why are you running away?” Hannah
said, “Let’s go over there to have a look!” I still can’t run away after all… What is this? Fate?
They pulled over on the hillside, and they had to walk for the rest of the road. Anthony accompanied Bettany, Hugh,
and Margaret in the car. Melody was with them too, because she felt that the village from afar seemed a little bit
scary. Everyone went up to the mountain; the weather was nice, and they felt that they were closer to the sky now.
“Where are they now?” Lilly was curious; she just saw them running. Blake looked around, and he looked at the
abandoned village. Josh glanced around and asked, “Is there no one living around here?”

The village was abandoned, and some of the house doors were broken. At the base of the mountain, the houses still
looked fine; the doors were closed, so they just thought that the villagers went out to work. When they were
halfway up the mountain, they realized that there was a spacious ground and that there were more houses in the
inner part. They could not see them from the bottom of the mountain. However, these houses were in ruins; the
doors were totally broken, and there were grasses and vines growing on the houses.
Lilly checked around, and she even bent down to peek at different houses. She said, “There’re a lot of people
here!” Josh’s face turned pale once he interpreted Lilly’s words. Hannah whispered, “Why does this place look like
the Ghost Ville that is famous online?” Josh’s legs were trembling, and he muttered, “Please stop talking!” Grace
snorted, “You’re such a coward!” Yet you wanted to tag along! They continued to walk up into the village, and Blake
glowered. “Didn’t we see them running just now? Why can’t we see any of them now?” The bad aura was very
strong around here; Blake could see things that normal people could not when he had the black rope with him.
They were walking on a narrow road in between two houses, and suddenly an extremely slim man appeared before
them, sitting on the door frame in front of his house and staring at them.
