At night, it was pitch black in the stockade. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Jiangbei put down Zhu Yao, turned around and placed Zhu Yao on a stone, and carefully rubbed her calves. Lying on Jiangbei's back in one position for a long time, Zhu Yao's legs were numb.

The leader entered the stockade, and after a while, someone came out with torches to greet Jiang Bei and Zhu Yao. The leader was the one who went to the valley to invite Jiangbei on that day.

Jiangbei helped Zhu Yao get up and greeted him.

When he saw Zhu Yao, this person's eyes flashed, and unknown emotions flashed in his eyes. Then he laughed, and heartily took Jiangbei and Zhu Yao into the village.

"I didn't expect Brother Jiang to come so quickly, I thought Brother Jiang would come in a few days. After all, I've heard that the Central Plains is not peaceful now. ”

Jiang Bei glanced at him and said coldly: "Didn't you say that you asked me to come over as soon as possible?" If things are not in a hurry on your side, I still have something to do in the Central Plains, so I will deal with it first and then come over. After speaking, he made a gesture to pull Zhu Yao away.

Zhu Yao also made a gesture of leaving, the man was in a hurry, and hurriedly grabbed Jiang Bei, and said in a loud voice: "Joke, joke, Brother Jiang, don't blame, of course I am in a hurry here, otherwise I would not have been able to invite you over in person." ”

Jiangbei stopped, but he was not in a hurry to ask him about the specific matter, but it was the old god who was there and told him about the conditions.

"It's not out of the question that I'm going to help, but you know my wife's situation. I also know the ability of your stockade, so if you leave her here, I will help you. ”

As soon as Jiang Bei said this, Zhu Yao and the man were stunned. Zhu Yao didn't know, it turned out that Jiangbei had already found out? But the man was stunned for a while, gritted his teeth, and agreed.

In this way, Jiang Bei and Zhu Yao lived in the village.

Since she agreed to Jiangbei's request, a woman came over the next day and took Zhu Yao to a room at the highest place. The house is said to be a shrine maiden from their village. The shrine maiden is a magical existence that can communicate with heaven and earth, and she cannot get married for the rest of her life, nor can she be emotional, and she has no desires.

Zhu Yao was forcibly instilled with some things about the witch before entering the house, and then was pushed into the house by the woman.

Outside it was bright daylight, and the sun was shining. But the room was pitch black, and I couldn't see my fingers. The wind blowing from nowhere blew on Zhu Yao's face, and for a moment, Zhu Yao seemed to be in the cold winter.

There was a slight click, and a light lit up in the room.

A woman wrapped in a black cloth looked at Zhu Yao faintly behind the light with a pair of eyes that only appeared. A woman's eyes are cloudy, and when she looks at people, her eyes don't seem to move, and she just looks at you fixedly.

Zhu Yao was startled by this strange scene, turned around and fled.

Until she rushed back to the room where she and Jiangbei were temporarily staying in a panic, Zhu Yao's heart was still pounding.

"Miss Zhu, our witch said you don't need to go to her, you just need to bring this with you." When the sound fell, the people also entered the house. It was the woman who had just sent Zhu Yao to the witch. At this time, she was holding a sachet-like thing in her hand and solemnly put it in Zhu Yao's hand.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend your gods, it's just that I'm not really comfortable with that environment." Zhu Yao took the sachet a little embarrassed and said apologetically.

The woman didn't look angry, but chuckled and said, "Miss Zhu doesn't need to feel sorry, I had the same reaction as Miss Zhu when I went to the witch for the first time." ”

After she said this, Zhu Yao's original embarrassment disappeared a little. Then, the two continued to talk a few more words, and the woman took her leave and left.

What the shrine maiden gave her was something that looked like a sachet on the outside and emitted a scent. It's just that this fragrance is a bit weird, and Zhu Yao's mind gradually became drowsy when she smelled it.

In the white mist, Zhu Yao walked alone.

"Anyone?" Zhu Yao shouted, but there was no response, and there was a deathly silence all around. Zhu Yao froze and turned to think. Isn't she on a mission? How did you get here? And she was obviously waiting for Jiangbei in the house, where is this place? It's weirdly tight.

Yes, it was the sachet that the woman gave her. She smelled the sachet and entered.

"Is that you? Are you here? ”

The white fog dissipated in front of him, and there was a familiar click, the dim light lit up, and the figure of the witch appeared not far from Zhu Yao.

For a while, Zhu Yao was a little confused, not knowing whether she was in a dream or in the witch's room now. She pinched her leg and didn't feel it, so it was in a dream.

The witch quietly watched Zhu Yao's movements without making a sound, and finally when Zhu Yao relaxed and unfolded a smile, she suddenly said, "You are in the state of a soul body now, of course you won't feel pain." ”

Zhu Yao was shocked, her soul was out of her body? Why didn't she feel anything? No, no, this situation is so weird! Suddenly, Zhu Yao's eyes looked at the witch fixedly, and said affirmatively: "It's you!" ”

"It's me!" The shrine maiden nodded, and readily acknowledged.

"You shouldn't exist in this world, but there is cause and effect between you and Jiangbei, that's why you came here. Now, since Jiangbei has spoken, I will naturally try my best to help you. You remember, that's why I'll help you, it's all because of Jiangbei. The witch's face was hidden behind the black cloth, and Zhu Yao couldn't see the look on her face, but from her eyes, Zhu Yao caught a strange look.

Zhu Yao didn't understand why she deliberately emphasized Jiangbei, in fact, of course Zhu Yao knew. If it were Jiangbei, he might not even know about the existence of the village, let alone come to this village. However, then again, it seems that it is precisely because she has to complete the task that she will enter this world. If it weren't for this task, the original owner might be enjoying it on a rich lady right now. Of course, there will be no such thing as the latter series.

"Okay, that's it for today, Jiangbei is back." The shrine maiden waved her hand and the lights went out. Zhu Yao's eyes fell into a white fog again.

"Zhu Yao, wake up." Jiang Bei's voice was far away as if it was coming from the sky, her eyelids seemed to weigh a thousand pounds, Zhu Yao opened her eyes with great effort, and Jiang Bei's worried look fell into her eyes.

"Awake? Why did you sleep for so long, beware of not being able to sleep at night. The worried look in Jiang Bei's eyes faded, and a gentle look hung on his face again.

Zhu Yao grabbed Jiang Bei's hand and gently rubbed his cheek on it twice. Feeling the familiar temperature, Zhu Yao's restless heart gradually settled down.
