"Madame, you're new to the city, so I don't know. It was originally a mass grave, because a large number of corpses were exposed to the wild, which attracted a large number of crows who lived on carrion, so it was named 'Crow Ridge'. ”

In Abel's mind, in such a desolate and terrifying environment, the woman in front of him, who seemed to be pampered, should be timid.

"It's okay," said Thea eagerly, "I'll be careful to avoid it." ”

Abel tried his best to dispel Thea's thoughts, and continued to persuade him: "But since the natural disaster spread in the Eastern Kingdom, I don't know why, many of the dead corpses in Raven Ridge have also been resurrected as brainless ghouls. The Twilight Forest is just as dark day and night, so these ghouls are just wandering around all the time. A delicate lady like you, if you run into them, you'll be in big trouble. ”

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Xia's face became a little ugly.

"Ghoul ......?" Xia said hesitantly. She remembered the time she had woken up in Deathtown. There she knew that not all resuscitators could retain their will.

The original awakening through the plague is only a small part, and only a very small part of this part of the lucky people will remember the events of their lives to a greater or lesser extent, and retain their personality and thoughts before their lives. The vast majority of people, even when they wake up, become unconscious walking corpses, wandering and hunting in dark corners and corners by instinct. Eventually, they die due to wear and tear of their energy or body, or they are hunted against each other.

Thea shuddered. She thought of something more serious.

"There's a plague here too? How did those dead bodies come back to life? Does anyone know about these things? She asked in a loud voice.

Xu Shixia's sudden change of attitude caught Abel a little off guard. He explained with some flustery.

"The corpses...... No one knows how they were infected by the plague, but most of them were concentrated in the Raven Ridge Cemetery. It was originally in the middle of nowhere, and the only people who had to pass through it were those who went to the Wild West, but because the Brotherhood of Defia over there was so much panic, there were no more people going to the Wild West, and the people who passed through it became more and more scarce - even the townspeople of the town of Night Late would not come here easily. ”

"Abel...... So why do you live here alone and don't go to Nighttown? It should be a lot safer there. Thea realized her gaffe and asked him in a soft voice.

"Me?" Abel's eyes flickered, avoiding Thea's gaze. "I'm old and I don't have any relatives to live with. So I volunteered to come here to guard the cemetery. If anything unusual happens to the ghouls. I can tell the Night's Watch troops to take action. Something like that...... Somebody has to do it. He smiled unnaturally.

After listening to Abel's explanation, Xia couldn't help but glance at him. "Abel, you're amazing."

"No...... It's nothing? Abel turned his face away in embarrassment. So, ma'am, be patient, Mr. Simon......"

A high-pitched and loud dragon roar faintly came along the wind. Distracted Shia.

"Abel, did you hear anything?" She asked, somewhat uncertain. "Here...... Seems to have some strange sounds? ”

"What? I didn't hear anything. Abel looked at her puzzled and said with a smile: "It's very windy here, and there are often strange bird calls. You may have misheard. ”

Thea smiled awkwardly and stopped talking.

The voice just now, I don't know why she just felt that she heard it correctly, it was definitely a dragon chanting, and she couldn't say why, she felt that the voice contained anger and despair, the voice of the vanquished.

Xia's heart jumped, and she inexplicably thought of the form of the black dragon of Simon that day. She thought distractedly. Don't? It won't be Simon......

Although he didn't have that kind of emotion towards Simon, Sia didn't want anything to happen to him.

She asked Abel with some trepidation: "Abel, did Simon say what he was going to do?" ”

"No ......, but rest assured, ma'am, Mr. Simon will be fine." Abel replied absentmindedly.

Thea frowned. "He used to ...... Do you often come here like this? ”

Abel said with a thoughtful smile. "If Madame is worried about Mr. Simon. I can accompany you to the door and wait to see. ”

Sia thought for a moment and nodded.

Walking out of the cabin, Abel pointed to the east. "Mr. Simon is going in that direction."

Thea smiled, but turned her gaze around.

This is a downwind outlet with Crow Ridge on its back, remote and deserted, only the hoarse cries of crows from time to time on Crow Ridge, and the stench of corpses on the ridge in the breeze. It's disgusting. It was dark, but you could see a small river not far away.

Thea's eyes lit up, and her footsteps involuntarily moved in the direction of the river. "Abel, is that the Spiegel River?"

"Well, yes." Abel followed her nervously and puzzled.

"And across the street is the Elwyn Forest?" There was a hint of anticipation in Thea's voice.

"Yes." Abel's brow furrowed slightly, just as he wanted to say something. Out of the corner of his eye, he glimpsed a little red in the distance, from far and near. "Ma'am, Mr. Simon is back!" He exclaimed with joy, his face tense from worry finally relaxed.

The Hell's Horse is galloping.

Seeing Sia and Abel standing outside as if waiting for him, Simon whipped his mount a few more times before it suddenly stopped in front of Thea. Because the speed was too fast, the war-horse man stood up and neighed in dissatisfaction.

"Xia, are you waiting for me?" Simon jumped off his horse, a smile on the corner of his eyebrow.

Xia hesitated and didn't answer, but her eyes fell on a crescent-shaped scar on Simon's right face, the scar was a finger long, and it was slightly oozing blood, it was a new wound.

"You're hurt?" The pastor's habit made her subconsciously reach out and want to heal. But before her hand touched Simon's face, she realized that her behavior was inappropriate and hurriedly withdrew her hand, but Simon grabbed her.

Simon's eyebrows curled, squeezing her hand. "You're worried about me?"

Thea was embarrassed and silent, secretly trying to withdraw her hand.

Her strength is obviously not strong enough for Simon, and it seems that Simon does not take her resistance to heart. Simon just smiled brightly and wrapped her hand firmly in the palm of his hand, pulling it to his lips and kissing it. "Xia, I'm so happy!"

Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Abel's back-turned figure, annoyed by her inappropriate behavior. She glared at Simon fiercely, biting her lip and whispering two words from her teeth: "Let go!" Simon slowly let go of his hand, but the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, showing that he was in a good mood. He then clenched his hand into a fist and coughed lightly to his lips.

As soon as Thea broke free of her hand, she turned her back and took a few steps out.

"Mr. Simon, you're back. When can we start? Abel, who was on the side, immediately seized the opportunity and interjected impatiently.

Simon looked at Thea's back, his eyebrows were soft, and he replied absentmindedly, "I'm busy, and you're in a hurry." Let's get started. Is something ready? ”

Thea heard him and stopped.

And Abel was so excited that his words trembled a little. "Good...... Okay, Mr. Simon, I'll ...... right away Prepare now. ”

Simon nodded casually, and Abel immediately hurried away as if he had been pardoned. He was already a little old, and he was so hurried that he almost fell.

Simon looked at Abel's back, the corners of his mouth raised. Xia felt that the expression was more like a sneer of disdain. She hesitated as she walked towards Simon.

"What are you going to do?" She pursed her lips and asked softly. "You don't want to take advantage of this venerable old man, do you?"

"Me? Exploit? Simon looked at a serious-looking Sia with a funny face. What does he have to use for me? And, respectable? Thea, what did you hear him say? ”

"Isn't it worthy of my respect for an old man of his age who doesn't stay in a safe town and takes on the responsibility of guarding the cemetery for everyone's safety?" Shia said angrily.

"Ha, Abel...... That's what I told you? Simon couldn't help but cover his forehead with his hand to hide the sarcastic smile in his eyes. Also, how can he tell the truth to you who he doesn't know. ”

"I don't know what you're going to do, Simon." Seeing his reaction, Xia said with some annoyance, "But this place is so close to Stormwind, you'd better not do anything......"

"Shh Simon held up an index finger to seal Thea's mouth, his flamboyant complexion cold. "Anyway, I won't avoid you later, so I might as well tell you something first, so that you don't misunderstand me. First of all, I want to correct one thing with you - and that is Abel, not as he said to you, but ...... Driven out of the town en masse by the townsfolk of Nighttown! ”

"What!" Thea's eyes widened in disbelief. "I don't believe why the townspeople want to evict him, he's just an ordinary old man and there's no threat."

Simon looked at the stunned Thea happily and continued. "Pharmacist, Abel is a pharmacist. And the reason for his expulsion is also very simple, he violated the ban of the alliance and researched and used the plague of natural disasters. ”

Shia gasped.

Looking at Xia's stunned expression, Simon said in a good mood. "Abel is not as old as he looks, he is actually in his forties, and the reason why he looks so old now is entirely because of his wife, Elisa."

"However, Abel said that he had no relatives." Thea argued in disbelief: "Then his wife ......"

Simon smiled. "So, why don't I tell you a story, how about passing the time?"

ps：

Yesterday's broken note: Last night, a book was happily taken to ag random by a friend. **The author went to ag for the first time, all kinds of turtles and all kinds of lying on the floor do not explain, and finally !! I finally saw my handsome and domineering tile king who held the audience!!! (Please let the nymphomaniac author scream for five minutes......) Then I went back to the new chapter and found out that I forgot to set it when it was released!!

Nymphomaniac is really unforgivable...... Silently full of cows.
