Lin Ziyu took out the crystal fragment from his backpack and played with it in his hand, but he sorted out the information of this plot in his heart. Since there is Fran's crystal, will there be anyone else's?Ling?Sam?Cher?or even ...... She glanced at the boy who was walking back to the village with her.

Also have Snow's?

"I said Si Nuo, how long have you been in the village alone?" Lin Ziyue stopped in front of the grass hut, and the thought of the smell of the rotten dinner made her heart tremble, so she simply did not enter the house.

Si Nuo also stopped, his expression was no longer as cold as at the beginning, but very empty: "I don't know, maybe a month, maybe a year, or even decades, at first I still had the mind to calculate the time according to the sun and the month, but then I was not even in the mood to write a diary." After that, he turned his head and stared straight at Lin Ziyue, "Sometimes I wish there were more outsiders like you, at least I could say a few words to communicate, there are no living creatures in this vicinity, and it is the first time I know that it can be so uncomfortable for a person to live alone." ”

Lin Ziyue was furious by him, and couldn't help frowning: "Then don't you leave this village? ”

Snow shook his head: "I can't get out, you can see it, when I cut down a tree, I will be teleported back to the house, and if I go too far out of the valley, I will be teleported back, it's an endless loop." ”

Lin Ziyue recalled the contents of the diary again, so she asked him: "I didn't see the square after going around the village, can you take me to see it?"

"I'm sorry, I don't want to go there, but the square is already outside the village, so you can go around to the back of the village chief's house and follow the path for a few minutes, and climb a short stone staircase to get there. Oh, and the biggest house is the village chief's house. ”

"Okay, thanks, then I'll explore first. ”

Saying goodbye to Sinuo, Lin Ziyue sighed in her heart, the system AI of the illusory world is no different from the real person, if it weren't for the diary of Sinuo's, and the player couldn't be trapped in the same empty village and do nothing, she might not be sure whether Sinuo is a player or a system NPC, the game of the illusory world will not display the ID above the head, but it seems that you can learn identification techniques from some NPCs in the city to identify some basic information.

That's right,It seems that since I entered the game,I haven't seen the physical strength value、Mana value、Skill value.,Could it be that because the level is too low.,Novice protection state.,Haven't you opened those things yet?There's not even a chat box in the friend bar.。

Lin Ziyue wondered as she walked down the stone steps to the square, the square was full of scorched black marks, a lot of wood was slowly burning with flames, but it would not spread, and a thick layer of ash was stepped on under her feet, so soft that it was like rubbing a carpet. She took out her cane again, but she didn't split it, just carried it on her right hand, and pulled it a few times through the ashes to see if she could pick up anything else.

So she walked all the way to the middle of the square, where a pile of firewood was erected high, as if it had been used as an altar and burned something for the ceremony. Lin Ziyue suddenly remembered that Si Nuo said that he could only leave this place if he was burned to death, so the soles of his feet suddenly fluttered, these ...... It won't all be the people who have been burned by Sino, their ashes, right?

The fire was started from the altar, so how did Fran get burned to death? There is no trace of destruction and burning in the village, and if time had been completely suspended, it should have been suspended at the time of the tragedy, but if it had not been burned in the village, Fran probably did not die from the fire elsewhere, but ...... Burned to death in the square.

Lin Ziyue looked down at the red crystal fragment in her hand, and suddenly found that it was flickering with a faint light. If she hadn't looked down, she would probably have ignored it. Lin Ziyue pointed the fragments around, and when she pointed to one side of the square, the red light became stronger, so she walked over there, until she walked in front of a bush, the light became stronger and stronger, Lin Ziyue had to drill into the bushes, and not long after advancing in the woods, she who cared about the light of the fragments, tripped over the staggered tree roots, and fell to the ground.

But what was even more uncomfortable was when she looked up, two dry black holes stared at her. She took a deep breath and desperately crawled backwards backwards for several steps before she calmed down, and she couldn't help but curse that the game was so real that her heart was beating like it was about to pop out.

Lin Ziyue looked at this dry corpse, the tattered clothes on the body could vaguely distinguish that it was probably a well-sewn dress, the corpse had a very thick hemp rope around the waist to tie it to the tree, the bark was cut off a lot, and the grass around the dried corpse was also sparse, Lin Ziyue used the end of the cane to pull out the mouth of the dry corpse slightly, but the chin fell and rolled to her feet before stopping. She didn't dare to touch it with her hands, so she could only lean down and observe it carefully, and there was indeed bark and grass roots between her teeth. This girl of unknown age is probably tied up here and starved to death.

It's cruel......

The fragments in Lin Ziyue's hands were still glowing, but because of the fear in her heart, she never dared to touch the dried corpse again, so she simply searched in the surrounding grass, and when she found a piece of burnt meat, the flickering light of the fragments was even a little dazzling, and she was so puzzled that she dragged a few wide leaves to wrap this piece of meat, and it seemed to be thrown out of the female corpse, with gnawing marks on it, but why throw away this meat and gnaw the bark? It seems that the person who imprisoned the girl didn't want her to die too soon, so he brought food to feed her, was it that the two had a dispute later, and the girl gave up the only food, and then was starved to death?

A thought flashed in Lin Ziyue's heart.

This girl can't be imprisoned by Snow, right?

The plot became more complicated, Lin Ziyue put the fragment back in her pocket, and walked back to the square with the piece of meat in her hand, thinking that since Fran's fragment was found in the ashes, if the piece of meat was burned, maybe she would be able to get the next fragment. She found a place in the corner of the square where the fire was stronger, threw the meat into it, and sat down on the edge to wait.

The sun had sunk in the west at this time, Lin Ziyue felt a sense of uneasiness in her heart, she was here unconsciously, and she had actually stayed for more than two hours? When she came, this world was the sun hanging high, not noon or afternoon, and the time of the illusory world was nine hours a day, six hours during the day, and three hours at night, so that the game would speed up the staggering of day and night, and players would not miss too many special time exploration plots because of their usual schedule.

She found a pile of firewood that seemed to have no fire, sat on it, and then immediately bounced up, and the pile of wood was still hot and hot, and she seemed to feel a burnt smell in her pants. Pulling the meat that was almost burned to ashes with the sword in the staff, a layer of scorched mist actually appeared on the sword, Lin Ziyue was stunned for a moment, and then remembered that the attribute of the sword was ice, so he poked the sword into it with more peace of mind, and then a yellow crystal rolled out.

Lin Ziyue tentatively touched it, but it was not hot, but a little cold.

She checked the crystal information, and there seemed to be a roar in her head, and there was a brief blank, and her mind couldn't keep up with the plot that was happening.

Yellow Crystal - Ling (quest item)

The crystal of fruit, the sorrow of food.

Bind

Is this human flesh? Is this Ling's meat?

A burst of nausea came up, Lin Ziyue forcibly suppressed the discomfort in her heart, threw the crystal directly into her backpack, and then turned around and ran towards the village. Although the fear in her heart kept coming up, she had to ask Snowy what was going on.

But she was stopped on the stone steps, a man she had never seen was standing in the middle of the road, Lin Ziyue had no choice but to pick up the sword again, although this thing has not been used for any purpose except for pathfinding, but there is still a sense of security in her hand.

The man's cloak was wrapped in pitch black, and it was easy to subconsciously think that he was the villain. His voice rang out, hoarse as if his nails were scratching on the blackboard: "Did you fall through the crack again? ”

Lin Ziyue didn't say anything, she was afraid of triggering something that would kill her, so the fear and thinking she had experienced so far would be in vain.

"This ...... Are you going to come to me to get it?" the man stretched out his hand, and there was a purple crystal in his hand, which shimmered directly at Lin Ziyue.

"Are you going to ask me to do something?" Lin Ziyue narrowed her eyes, the sun began to set, and the darkness eroded the village little by little, casting a slender shadow between the two.

"Listen to me tell you a story. ”

When Lin Ziyue heard this, she simply put away her weapon and sat on the stone steps.

"Aren't you afraid of me......" The man seemed startled by her actions.

"I'm afraid that if it is useful, there will be no brave people in this world, I just think it is very difficult to fight with the village boys now, you see that I am defenseless and weak, if someone wants to harm me, such as you, a slap is enough. Lin Ziyue had a broken and broken expression, this weird broken place is not right everywhere, it is better to listen to what this man is going to say, anyway, she is level 1, and there is no punishment or loss when she dies, and the equipment is all bound, how good it would be if she could get rid of this ghost place as soon as possible and go to the normal novice village to upgrade, she sighed in her heart, and she was reluctant to die directly and give up the clues that had already arrived, since this plot is so complicated now,

If you do do it, you'll probably get a nice reward.

The man walked a few steps, sat down on the steps as if she did, and then coughed lightly a few times, his voice was not so hoarse, and then he slowly spoke, and his story finally explained most of the mysteries of this village to Lin Ziyue from beginning to end.

"A long time ago, a family moved into the village, and the parents and a pair of children built a simple wooden house in the village, and the outsiders of the family were inevitably rejected by the rest of the village, but the friendliness of the parents made the villagers gradually accept them, until one day on a full moon night, someone in the village died mysteriously, and he walked in the village, and suddenly the whole body was on fire, and he was burned to ashes. In the house of the man who was burned to death, the villagers found out that he had stolen the wedding ring of the foreign couple, so the villagers were immediately divided into two factions, a small number of people felt that the thief deserved the crime, and was punished by the gods, which was a sign that the god of fire appeared in the village, and most people felt that the couple were demons, with the power to control fire, and were cursed beings.

That night, the terrified radicals gathered, and then a fire broke out in the village, burning down the family's barely sheltered wooden house, and after extinguishing the fire, the charred bodies of the couple were found, while the siblings fled in the chaos. After a few days, the villagers learned from the old hunter who came to the village to buy daily necessities that the sister and brother ran all the way to the back mountain, so they were left behind by the old hunter who guarded the tomb, and since then there is a legend in the village that there are cursed demon sisters and brothers in the mountain, and the villagers think that their blood relationship is cursed, and regard the brother and sister as a symbol of ominousness. It wasn't until ten years later that the old hunter died in a forest fire, so they returned, and the siblings built a straw hut on the ashes of their parents' wooden house, and relied on the younger brother to go out hunting, and the older sister made some weaving for a living.

And the reason why the villagers allowed them to come back is simple.

They are blaming themselves. No one knows better than them the empty accusation, the empty rumor, which is only to find relief for their crimes, and they feel guilty for burning the couple, so they accept the cursed children, as a way to comfort their conscience, and thus show their noble magnanimity, and then go on to put on the cursed brother and sister the dead chicken, the sick child, and the bad harvest.

But that pair of sisters and brothers are actually not bad people, not from the beginning. Sister Fran is gentle and skillful, always has a warm smile like a spring breeze, her bamboo baskets, embroidered clothes, are the best and most delicate in the village, the younger brother is calm and intelligent, very good, is one of the best hunters in the village, although always cold, but always not stingy to share the prey to the villagers. If the villagers had let go of their ridiculous curse rhetoric, if the villagers had been a little wiser, if the villagers had stopped persecuting the siblings and allowed them to live in peace, no real tragedy would have happened.

What is really tragic is actually the ignorance and stupidity of the villagers, the sister and brother have no malice in the first place, and nothing should have happened. ”

The man paused when he said this, and Lin Ziyue looked at him with a clue in his heart.

"Are you...... Sam, huh?" she said with some confusion in her tone.

The man didn't respond, so Lin Ziyue had to continue talking, trying to trigger more clues.

"Si Nuo was extremely depressed in those days because of the death of a close friend, so when you expressed your love for Fran, the long-suppressed anger broke out at one time, slashed you with a knife, and then fled into the mountains to hide all night, and the villagers found out about the brother's hurtful things, and suddenly the malice of the curse broke out, so they found the scapegoat Fran and took her to the square......"

"Not really. The man spoke suddenly.

Lin Ziyue was interrupted and felt very puzzled, so she quietly waited for the man's next words.

"Fran died in place of Snow, and died to protect Snow. Originally, the villagers planned to burn to death, only the impulsive and hurtful Sino, who they thought was a continuation of the cursed bloodline, but did not see the gentle Fran as a threat. She...... It was he who proposed to replace his brother and go to the stake. ”

Lin Ziyue instantly felt that the amount of information exploded.

She wanted to protect both her beloved brother and the village she loved, so she chose to go to perdition instead of Snow. And they were reduced to ashes in the flames. The man's hoarse voice trembled.

"Then why are all the people in the village ......?"

"It's Snow. He saw Fran burned, and a curse erupted on him, a real curse, and his eyes were blood-red, as hideous as beasts, and they were demonic eyes, which I still can't forget, and those eyes were blood-red, like blood-stained blood...... Relying on his superb hunting skills, he set countless traps around the village, tying up all the people who had left in a hurry to the square one by one, and not a single man, old or young, was spared, and all of them were burned to ashes by him, just as he had seen the last time the villagers did to Fran. ”

Lin Ziyue stood up suddenly, and shouted: "But what Fran did wasn't to protect the village! How could Si Nuo ruin his sister's hope! That guy loves his sister more than he loves himself! After hurting Sam, he knew that he had hurt his sister, so he made another cut on his face as a punishment for himself...... How could such a stubborn and cruel guy go against his sister's wishes?!"

The man sighed deeply, and the trees around him swayed with a gust of night wind.

"Because Snow doesn't know. ”

Lin Ziyue felt that the temperature around her dropped by a few degrees in an instant.

"You say...... What?"

The man's hoarse voice grinded in her mind: "Sino, I don't know what Fran did for him, I don't know what Fran wanted when she turned to ashes. ”
