What rotten luck...

Qin Manjiang really wanted to swear.

Thick fog filled the space behind him, and all that remained ahead was a toilet.

Having heard the account in the Sick Village Records, he knew very well that this village did have a mechanism that pulled people back whenever they reached the "edge of the map." But he had clearly only switched places with Shen Hai, so how had he been moved to the Public Toilet?

The place with the hazy light was, sure enough, the Public Toilet.

Qin Manjiang conceded.
