110 months of dark and windy nights

When they entered Twilight Town, they saw two ethereal cursive characters embroidered on the flag.

'Blood Raven'.

There is a sign standing next to the road, one direction, one road.

It's a street sign for this one thing.

The Blood Raven is the only inn here, the Black Shop, and they have to stay here.

They looked at the 'Blood Crow' and were speechless, in this eerie and terrifying place, without a mad matching name, as if it did not show local characteristics.

The group quietly stepped into the threshold of the 'Blood Crow', and due to the infection of the environment, they all unconsciously became plain and cautious, and a few pairs of small eyes turned around a few times. I saw the shopkeeper behind the counter, touching the abacus in his hand, and looking at them.

The three little girls and the two little offspring, looking at their thief eyebrows, knew that it was the first time they came to Twilight Town, and they also suspected that he was opening a black shop. Such a group of impolite teenagers, they have to be slaughtered today.

The shopkeeper lowered his eyes and said in a long voice: "Don't look at it, it's a small place, there are few people coming and going, and those who have lived in this store know that the accommodation is more expensive, ten taels of silver per person, and eating and drinking are counted separately." ”

"Ten taels?" Jian Xuenu exclaimed very unexpectedly.

It's more expensive than a five-star in a big city, but everyone is not a person with poor money, and they can barely accept it, but Jian Xuenu deliberately opened her mouth wide, very surprised, she thinks that at this time, she should pretend to be poor, otherwise, she will be put under Mongolian medicine and slaughtered as a fat sheep.

They looked into the store for a moment, and saw that this inn was usually an ordinary householder, old and young, and it looked like several generations were in the same house. Sit down with confidence. I ordered food and drinks from the shopkeeper and asked for a room.

Women are very chicken women and are innate. While waiting for the food to be served, several women came to the counter, and Jian Xuenu didn't know what the two of them wanted to ask? Anyway, she wanted to ask safety-related questions to avoid going astray.

Jian Xuenu leaned in and asked, "Shopkeeper, let me inquire about someone, do you know Dugan?" ”

The shopkeeper nodded kindly. "Yes," he affirmed, "there is no one here who doesn't know him, he's the only night watchman in our town." ”

"Oh......" turned out to be an official person. Their hearts had been hanging in the air, and it seemed that Duggan was a humorous night watchman, and that he should have some magic to make himself that respectful. Mixed in the cemetery. It's really hard for him.

In this dark and damp place, he kept watch this long lonely night, not only did he not remain silent, but honed his cheerful and hospitable character, which was really a good night watchman.

However, the shopkeeper immediately interrupted their thoughts, and the next words came into their ears. They were so shocked that they opened their mouths and couldn't speak for a long time.

The shopkeeper continued what he had just said. Said slowly: "However, he has passed away for many years and is buried in Black Crow Ridge. ”

They were stunned for a long time, and the shopkeeper asked them what else they had to ask? They hurriedly shook their heads, not daring to open their mouths again, afraid that the shopkeeper would say something more, and I was afraid that they would not be able to sleep tonight......

After Jian Xuenu returned to the table, she turned back, pointed to Dugan and said to the shopkeeper, "Invite him to the backyard stables tonight, and let him help us watch the horses." ”

"Good ......" The shopkeeper glanced at Dugan, his expression did not change, he should be used to him, as calm and calm as ever.

In fact, the eccentricity of this world is everywhere, only the accustomed to it is not strange.

Next, the shopkeeper reported the name of the dish when he served the dish, Jian Xuenu was a little confused, and asked curiously: "Hey, little brother, what did you just say this dish is called?" ”

The shopkeeper politely reported again, "Tender black widow delicious legs!" ”

She was silent for a few seconds, and saw that everyone was not surprised, and ate with relish, the name of the original dish, the store could take it as much as they wanted, in order to win people's favor.

However, Jian Xuenu was a little lonely, and still wanted to find out what kind of animal meat this was, so she couldn't help but ask again, "Little brother, what kind of meat do you say this is?" Whose legs? ”

The shopkeeper was slightly blessed, and patiently and politely explained: "I want to come to the guest officer is the first time to come to our twilight town, and I don't know our specialties here, the twilight forest is rich in black widow spiders, its meat is delicious, and the guest officer will know if you taste it." ”

Spider meat? It sounds a little disgusting, but after tasting it, it is really good, and the meat is indeed delicious.

"Black Widow? Little brother, do you know that they are all female? And dead man? She began to be stubborn, didn't she just want to attract attention and order his dish? She didn't believe that she was a widow.

"Of course, the spider is handing over ......" The shopkeeper glanced at a few girls, but didn't hand. In other words, "The spider is suffering. After pregnancy, the male spider will be eaten as a nutritious meal, and after giving birth to dozens of small spiders, the spider man will catch the black widow spider for food. ”

It dawned on her that she was really a widow.

The shopkeeper nodded and retreated...... After a while, the red wine was brought again, and looking at the bright color, like a fruit wine, but overflowing with a fishy aroma, she took the wine and took a long sip.

The shopkeeper diligently reported the name of the wine: "Werewolf blood wine, has the effect of strengthening courage, dispelling dampness, and shaking evil......"

'Poof......' Jian Xuenu listened to his introduction, and was so shocked that she squirted out the wine in her mouth, and she wasn't sure where it was sprayed, but she saw the whole table staring at her dumbfounded. She had to pretend not to see it, and turned back to the shopkeeper and said, "Little brother, what kind of blood wine did you just say?" ”

"The guest officer, it is the evil and strong gallant blood wine prepared with the fresh blood of the werewolf in the forest......"

She choked for a moment, raised her sleeves, and wiped the bloody smell from the corners of her mouth, a little disgusting.

In this unfamiliar place, in order not to show his cowardice and ignorance in front of outsiders, he said casually: "Little brother, the dishes on the table are a little cold, take them all down, make a new table, and don't want the wine." ”

She knew that when she sprayed just now, wolf blood was sprayed into the table full of dishes, and it would not work if she didn't change it, and everyone was staring at her hungry.

After a while, she didn't ask more nonsense when she was killed.

Xiao Er didn't leave immediately, looked at her bably, and said, "But, guest officer, the account ...... How do you calculate it? ”

Although the shopkeeper's words were very respectful, the light in his eyes was obviously sharp, and when he said this, several uncles and aunts in his family stopped what they were doing, and looked back at them.

Well, as if not giving them silver, Jian Xuenu said loudly: "Don't worry, how to calculate the account, this is for you." After Jian Xuenu finished speaking, he threw a silver coin over.

Xiao Er took the silver coin, looked through it, and saw that it was a hard currency minted by Hua's money, and the workmanship was exquisite and delicate, he checked it, put it in his pocket with great satisfaction, shouted loudly to serve the new food, and neatly put away the leftovers.

Next, for fear that he would lose his appetite, he didn't let the shopkeeper report the name of the dish again, so he just buried his head in eating.

Inadvertently, she saw Dugan's mummy sitting quietly in the corner, skinny and bone-covered, very pitiful, and her compassion began to flood again, and she kindly said to Dugan: "Dry corpse, what do you eat?" We've got you covered. ”

"Corpse worms."

Corpse bugs? I saw it when I was in the cemetery, and I crawled and crawled disgustingly.

The rattling sound pierced the word corpse worm into her heart, and she covered her mouth and retched for a while, almost vomiting the delicious food she had just eaten. I didn't ask, I talked less and used my brain more, and I asked again.

They finished their meal in silence, did not say anything, and went upstairs together.

The moon is dark and the wind is high, and there is not a ray of starlight in sight. The wind swept past the lattice, mingled with the howling of hungry wolves.

She tore off two lumps, pressed them into her ear holes, covered her head with a quilt, and fell asleep. Hua Xiaomei and Mao Yazhi coincidentally hugged the bedding roll, ran into her room, cowered next to her, and slept in the same bed.

Only Bian Cheng and Bai Chen, holding weapons, squatted under the window and took turns to keep vigil.

At this point, they remembered the benefits of the official night watchman......

However, the whole night was peaceful, they just scared themselves and made a false alarm.

The next morning, as soon as it was dawn, they packed up and set out along the path to the north hill of Twilight Town.

As soon as they reached the mouth of the valley of the two mountains, they saw Dugan squatting on a big rock like a specimen, motionless, looking at the sporadic dew on the tip of his nose, as if he had been waiting for them for a long time, and was afraid that anyone would throw it down without taking it.

However, when we set off just now, we really didn't remember it.

Dugan jumped off the boulder with a thud and staggered forward along the road.

Entering the valley, the border city took out the map again and examined it, passing through the continuous and steep heavy mountain peaks, which is the mournful swamp of a flat river.

He put away the map, boosted everyone's morale, and walked side by side with Jian Xuenu, Hua Xiaomei and Mao Yazhi followed closely behind, you say a word to me, Brother Biancheng, Brother Biancheng asked briefly about the matters to be paid attention to on the road, and Biancheng didn't say anything, just let everyone see the opportunity to act.

The more you go along the canyon, the mountain becomes more difficult and steep, the tall and majestic majestic mountain, so weird that it doesn't grow a hair, on the bare peak, a few strange and strange stones roll down from time to time, and there is also a Xiao Xiao ethereal sound, which makes people creepy.

The two chattering women finally shut up, staring at the banks of the canyon in astonishment, and from time to time they were wary of the strange rocks rolling down, if the fragrance was shattered in this disgusting place, it was really not worth it.

Only Dugan, who had no mount, was not tired of rattling forward like a child, as if he were really going back to his grandmother's house.

They walked through the canyon in fear, and as soon as they were safe, Jian Xuenu looked at the top of the valley mouth mountain and sighed: "I didn't expect that the abbot in the temple of the god of travel is really lofty, and at the top of the two mountains in the valley mouth where he entered the swamp of grievances, two lifelike statues were arranged to welcome guests from afar, which is worthy of being the most powerful temple in the Storm Continent." ”

"You're so humorous!" Dugan croaked and laughed as he bared a few white teeth, and the squeak of the skeleton made their teeth squeak, for fear that his bones would accidentally fall off the shelf.

After Dugan laughed crisply, he stretched out his slender bony hand, quickly dug a hole on the side of the road, and then got into it, burying himself, and before they could come to their senses, he threw out a sentence before entering the earth, "I'll wait for you." (To be continued......)
