Chapter 31: Once Upon a Time in Ghost Town (1)

In the dimly lit alley, the players stared at the old woman for a while, and they were amazed.

Someone exclaimed: "This NPC player is also too realistic, with a rickety figure, and the wrinkles on his face are stacked one by one, just like my eighty-year-old grandmother!" ”

The old woman was also frightened by the fight just now, and asked tremblingly, "Who are you, and why did you suddenly appear here?" ”

Ye Bai stepped forward and replied respectfully: "Hello mother-in-law, don't worry, we have no malicious intentions, just some tourists who have traveled out, and when they see that it is late, they want to come and spend the night, but they don't want to encounter such strange things, which disturbs their mother-in-law and looks strange." ”

The old woman shook her head and sighed, and said, "Hey~, where are you going, but you want to come here, our 'ghost town' has already spread, don't you know?" ”

Ye Bai replied: "We really don't know, do we still hope that my mother-in-law will tell you one or two?" ”

The old woman: "It's windy outside, and I can't stand the cold, so if you are really interested in knowing, follow me into the house." ”

The crowd didn't want to stay outside, so they followed.

It was a small room, very simple, with a square wooden table in the middle and four long benches, so that there was no place to put your hips.

The old woman sat on the table alone, Zhuge Qing and Qian Yinglun each occupied one side, Ye Bai and Huang Kai gave up the bench to Shi Lingxue and the injured Zhu Siyue, and the others crowded around, and the small stone house was crowded with no place to stay.

The old woman put the oil-paper lantern on the square table, and the flickering light illuminated the exquisite stone house, and the shadows of everyone were fused together, and she listened attentively to the old woman's slow words:

"Our town is called Stone Mining Town, which was originally very prosperous, with tens of thousands of households, and because we are the most devout believers in the 'Wood Spirit God', we are naturally protected by it, and it will naturally be smooth and prosperous!"

"Who is the Wood Spirit God?"

Shi Lingxue hurriedly asked, her sharp mind faintly feeling that this person who could be called a god might be related to the master of the Wood Domain.

The old woman replied: "Two hundred miles to the west, there is the largest tribe, the Wood Tribe, and the leader of the Wood Tribe is the Wood Spirit God, which is a real god, who can give birth to a jungle with a wave of his hand, and can make thousands of beasts surrender with a single finger.

It is rumored that the 'Mudu' is a finger of the Wood Spirit God, which is a towering ancient tree, stretching out over an area of more than 2,000 kilometers, and the millions of people of the Mu Tribe, and the beasts that surrender to the Wood Spirit God live on it! ”

"How can there be such a big tree!" Many players found it unbelievable after hearing this.

"Don't believe me." The old woman asked, "You must have seen the rows of willow trees outside the town when you came in?" ”

Everyone nodded, it was the row of willow trees that saved their lives, how could they forget.

The old woman looked proud and continued: "In the past, our village was often attacked by wild monsters, but since we believed in the Wood Spirit God, the Wood Spirit God descended from heaven and used a little magic power, and let those willow trees grow overnight, and from then on, all the wild monsters that want to invade the town will be punished by the Wood Spirit God, and they will be severely whipped by the willow wood, and our town can prosper and grow!" “

Ye Bai asked curiously: "In this case, why has it become such a depressed appearance again?" ”

After hearing this, the old woman's eyebrows lowered, her expression began to become lonely, and she replied in a hoarse voice: "Everything is because of the plague...... No! It should be said that it was because the kid ......"

As the old woman's low and hoarse voice spread, a long-sealed past gradually surfaced in front of everyone:

About 30 years ago, there was a miracle doctor who came to the stone mining town to help the world, although this miracle doctor seems to be young, but his medical skills are very good, specializing in the treatment of various incurable diseases, often medicine to the disease, and what is even more rare is that this miracle doctor goes around to treat diseases and save lives but not for money, only a small amount of consultation fees, enough for him to buy medicinal materials and maintain his life.

Because the town was so big enough that there were so many patients in need of treatment, the young doctor decided to stay in the town for a long time.

This was naturally a blessing for the town of Quarry, and the townspeople graciously left him.

At that time, there was a very beautiful girl named Talia in the quarry town, who was the dream of all the unmarried men in the town, and many people came to the door to propose marriage but were refused.

One day, Talia came to her door to fetch medicine for her mother, but she fell in love with the young, kind and skilled miracle doctor at first sight.

Talia is a bold girl who takes the initiative to express her love for the doctor, but the doctor is obsessed with her dreams and wants to spend all her time healing and saving people.

Talia refused to give up, so she stayed by his side every day, helping him grind medicine and ink, and never gave up.

After all, the miracle doctor is just a young man who has not been deeply involved in the world, and how can he not be moved when he gets along with the beautiful Talia day and night!

So, he accepted Talia and stayed for her, and a year later, the two had a crystallization of love.

But for some reason, their children were born with blue skin!

The miracle doctor thought that it might be because he tried Baicao in his early years, because the medicine was poisonous, and the toxicity of the drug was passed on to the child.

But the townspeople didn't understand this, so they thought the boy was a scourge and was cursed by the heavens, so they deliberately excluded him, and nicknamed him 'Blue Child'.

Fortunately, the divine doctor was very kind to the residents, so that they would not be allowed to do anything unfavorable to the child.

Later, as the child grew up, he showed an amazing talent for medicine, and he was not only proficient in all kinds of medical skills, but also surpassed by miracle doctors. What's even more incredible is that he doesn't need medicine, he can rely on his divine power to heal people, and even - he can save the dead with the flesh and bones of the dead!

But when the child is angry, his medicine will turn into poison again, which can poison an otherwise healthy person to death in an instant!

So, for this child, the people in the town were both respectful and afraid of him.

Fortunately, this child inherited his father's kind character, and since he was a child, he has been treating diseases and saving people everywhere, and has not hurt anyone with poison, so he gradually won the trust of the residents and slowly accepted him.

At this point in the story, everything seems to be beautiful.

Until more than ten years ago, another 'god festival' of the Mu tribe was about to begin......
