Chapter 13: The Miserable Girl

The petals of the rose were fragrant, and as the pastoral voice flew closer and closer, there seemed to be something stirring in the shadow of the flower.

"Yufei, why are you looking at these roses in a daze?"

Hu Yanxue walked and found that Mu Yufei was gone, and when she turned around, she saw him standing in front of the roses on the mountain rocks, his face full of dementia.

Mu Yufei woke up in shock, looking at the hand that was unconsciously stretched out, he was in a cold sweat.

What's wrong with you?

"Could it be that you look at Viva's decorations and want women's clothes too?" Hu Yanxue covered her stomach and smiled.

"Women's clothing is impossible for women's clothing, not in this life." Mu Yufei waved his hand solemnly and turned around angrily.

"Let's go, Cher, Viya is almost gone."

Hu Yanxue looked forward, and sure enough, Wei Ya had already walked around the corner, and her figure slowly disappeared into the darkness.

The two of them hurried after them, and behind them, the bright rose petals gathered for a moment, and after a moment they bloomed again.

The kingdom of Gulogs is like a bustling city under a starry night, there is no daylight here, but the light of candles and ores makes people no longer afraid of the dark.

Passers-by walked in pairs and threes, men and women walked on both sides of the street.

They were all dressed in fast-waisted tunics made of beige or white fabric, with the men mostly showing off the muscles of their upper bodies, while the women were more conservative.

The streets are lined with inns, markets, and restaurants, and every building is brightly lit.

Mu Yufei and Hu Yanxue were stunned, they walked up the stairs along the mountain, originally thinking that the platform above was only some simple huts at most, but they didn't expect it to be so lively.

Is this in a cave? If it weren't for their own experience, I'm afraid they would have thought it was some remote town.

"The Priest has decreed that we will treat you with the highest standards for the brave. Take a break, the hotels and restaurants are free. ”

Viya turned her head, still with a stiff smirk on her face, as if she were wearing a mask.

"What? Gratis? Mu Yufei's eyes turned into copper coins, shining brightly.

"Ahem." After feeling the "caressing" from Hu Yanxue, Mu Yufei quickly coughed twice and lowered the tone of his voice that had just risen an octave.

"Viva, I would like to ask where the priest is? We want to know more about the god of beauty. ”

Mu Yufei was bathed in the light of a believer, and asked Weiya with a serious face.

"The priests are holding the festival in the royal castle at the top."

Wei Ya pointed to the magnificent palace on the top of the hill and said, after she finished speaking, she saluted the two of them, and left without waiting for Mu Yufei to say anything.

"Don't go, wait!" Shepherd flew behind Viya and shouted, but she didn't respond at all and quickly disappeared into the crowd.

"Isn't it tempted to see other people's little girls beautiful?" Hu Yanxue had an aunt's smile on her face, and said rudely on Mu Yufei's shoulder.

"What nonsense... Phew, what nonsense. She's gone, and we're going to investigate it ourselves. ”

Mu Yufei looked around, these buildings in front of him were built on a huge platform on the mountain, and when he looked down the mountain, he could see hundreds of houses lit up.

The kingdom of Gulogs is built on a mountainous terrain and has eight floors from the bottom to the top.

On the ground floor are inns, bazaars, cemeteries, etc., and above are the Echo Gallery, the Temple of Iapetus, the City of Sighs, and more, with the royal city at the top of the Gulog.

"Cher, are you ready for a fierce and brutal battle?" Mu Yu Fei lowered his voice and asked very seriously.

"Of course!" Hu Yanxue raised her stone hammer, her starry eyes were mighty, ready to go.

Then she saw Mu Yufei next to her take out his...

Chopsticks???

"Wow! Vinegar-roasted Ouroboros! Hey? Is this sauce fried medusha? Mu Yufei walked all the way and watched all the way, still muttering in his mouth.

"A true warrior never needs to resort to external objects!" Hu Yanxue pursed her lips and turned her head, but there was still an unknown light in her eyes.

Each of these foods is more or less resistant to toxins and charms, and even effective in preventing petrification.

"After increasing the resistance, can't you be unscrupulous and confronted with monsters?" Mu Yufei walked with his head in his hands and looked up to the sky, as if he said to the air inadvertently.

"Boss, give me ten copies of each!" Hu Yanxue's stone hammer smashed on the ground, but the people ran towards the stall in a puff of smoke, shouting as they ran.

Mu Yufei pursed his lips and smiled, his gaze reserved and pure.

"Xue'er, I forgot to ask you before, after we separated earlier, did you encounter any strange plots?"

"The plot? I patronized the smashing monster, and I didn't look closely, you let me think about it. Hu Yanxue wiped the grease from her mouth with her sleeve and began to recall.

"By the way, there seems to be a little bit of a little one who claims to be a council chant, saying that he wants to make the village harvest every year, and gave the village chief Hua Jiuyan a seed."

Hu Yanxue patted her thigh and said to Mu Yufei.

"Cher, where did you meet this guy? Why didn't I see it? ”

"Near the Moonlight Garden, when I had just come back from the cemetery, I saw the little dot. I don't remember much about the rest, though. ”

"Hey, think about so much for what? That's it. Hu Yanxue waved her hand, indicating that she didn't have to worry about everything.

Mu Yufei shrugged his shoulders, the strong man said so, can he refute it?

As the two walked, they wanted to ask passers-by about the situation, but gradually Mu Yufei realized that something was wrong.

"Do you know about the festival?" Mu Yufei tried to keep his tone as normal as he could, and he pulled a young man in his twenties and asked.

"The light of the god of beauty, Weiss, will shine on us." The young man's eyes were hollow, and he raised his arms and shouted into the air.

After finishing speaking, the young man didn't care about Mu Yufei's reaction, and left on his own.

“...”

Mu Yufei did not believe in evil, so he ran to the vendor again and asked an old man who seemed to be more kind:

"Hello boss, I would like to ask if you know about the festival?"

"I have all the food here, it's all free! This is the reward of the great true God, Lord Weis! ”

No matter how Mu Yufei asked, the old man kept repeating this sentence.

"Hello, may I ask..."

"Mijin-sama, please bless me!"

"Hello..."

"Lord Ves! Lord Weiss! ”

“...”

After asking around, Mu Yufei was completely convinced. He sat on the ground with a thud, clutching his legs tightly and holding himself to himself.

"I think something is wrong." Mu Yufei looked at Hu Yanxue who was coming, and he slowly stood up.

"The flowers and plants here all have a pearl-like texture, and they don't look like ordinary plants at all."

"And in this dark cave, the skin color of the people is actually very normal, and they have not been affected at all."

"Do you understand what that means?" Mu Yufei looked at Hu Yanxue, who was still dazed, and tried to ask.

"I understand you're talking about the Book of Heaven."

"Hmm-hmm..."Mu Yufei was not too surprised, he was used to it.

"Brother and sister, are you from the outside?" A timid voice interrupted Mu Yufei's thoughts.

It was a long-haired girl who looked to be seven or eight years old, ragged and barefoot, and the scars of the beatings could be seen on the exposed parts of her body.

She stood in the middle of the road, but no one looked at the girl as if she didn't exist.

"Son, who hit you? Tell my sister and I'll teach him a lesson for you! ”

The moment she saw the girl, Hu Yanxue had tears in her eyes, and she walked quickly to the girl and stroked her head.

"No, no one bullied Anna, Anna is a good boy." The girl who called herself Anna lowered her head, but soon she smiled again and lifted it up, tears dripping from her eyes.

"Anna, although my brothers and sisters are all outsiders, they will protect you. Can you tell us about here? ”

Mu Yu flew forward and whispered softly, for fear of frightening the thin girl in front of her.

"I don't know where it is, I can't find a home." Anna's helpless hands fiddled with her tattered dress, her voice getting softer and softer.

"Anna, where are you, we're going home." A magnetic male voice came from the crowd, and Anna trembled violently when she heard it.

Fear and panic took over her eyes, and tears flowed down her face.

"Nope! No! No! Please! Help me! Anna grabbed the hem of Hu Yanxue's clothes tightly, staring at Mu Yufei and the two of them with big innocent eyes, begging continuously.

Looking at Anna's appearance, Hu Yanxue's heart was about to drip blood.

But before Hu Yanxue could speak, Anna suddenly shivered violently, and she cried and fled into the shadows between the houses.

"Anna! Anna! ”

Tears dripped down Hu Yanxue's cheeks, anger welled up in her heart, and she rushed towards the place where the man's voice came from with a giant hammer in hand.

But as Anna vanished, the man who was calling out to her seemed to be gone at the same time...

"Still thinking about Anna?"

In the hotel, Mu Yufei lay on the Krina-style bed, looked at the sad woman sitting with her back against the wall, and sighed.

"Cher, this should be what you look like in reality." After a moment of silence, Mu Yufei turned sideways and looked at Hu Yanxue.

At this time, Hu Yanxue had already taken off her coat, and Mu Yufei's gaze fell on her bare arm and stopped for a long time.

There, there were a few knife marks.

The scars in the game will heal quickly, but if they are in real life, there is nothing that can be done.

"yes." Hu Yanxue stretched out her hand and touched the scar on her arm, and her memory seemed to return to that day.

"Snow, snow, it's time to get up."

Hu Yanxue rubbed her sleepy-eyed little eyes and yawned widely.

Yesterday was just her seventh birthday, and the little one didn't sleep much all night, and he couldn't get up in the morning.

"Dad, I'll be right here."

Hu Yanxue lifted the patched little pink quilt, put on her favorite bunny slippers, got up and stretched.

The sunlight outside the window is just right, and it is not as technologically advanced as the rich area, and the high-rise buildings are towering.

Slums have the advantage of slums, that is, there is always a way to get sunlight.

The warm light shone on her, and Xiao Xue'er was very comfortable.

But why is there blood in front of you? Why did Mom and Dad fall to the ground?
