226. A village shrouded in mourning clouds

The village of Kelly is a village located on the north-west side of Brettnia County on the border with Linshire, because of the mountainous and forested area, the villagers of the village do not depend on farming for their livelihood, but mostly lumberjacks and hunters, relying on logging and hunting and selling timber and fur for their livelihood.

When Li Xiang and his party arrived at the village, it was already dusk. Looking at the wooden fence clearly visible in the distance and the scattered wooden huts and huts within the wall, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"Great! It's finally here. ”

"Great, great, I finally don't have to lie on this car that is about to fall apart."

"yes, I'm almost throwing up all the way."

Looking at the village in front of them, the girls in the carriage chattered and discussed, and the fatigue and discomfort caused by the journey seemed to be swept away.

Wait until the convoy continues for a while.

"Huh?" Walking at the front of the team on horseback, Yang Qianyu frowned, reined in his mount, and raised his hand to the convoy behind him. "The convoy stopped."

With Yang Qianyu's signal, the team in the rear stopped advancing. Immediately, Li Xiang, Fu Bin, Sun Xiaoyu, Shi Jinxin and several other companions rode horses to approach Yang Qianyu. Li Xiang asked first: "Old Yang, what's wrong?" Why stop the convoy? ”

"Boss, something seems wrong." Yang Qianyu pointed to the village in front of him and replied, "Listen carefully. ”

Hearing this, Li Xiang turned his attention to the village in front of him again, and after a moment, a puzzled look appeared on his face.

I could only hear cries from the villages in the distance. And it sounds like there are a lot of people crying.

Soon. The rest of the companions who came forward also heard the cries coming from the village ahead.

"What's going on?" Sun Xiaoyu was a little surprised. "Why are so many people crying?"

"It's like a funeral." Shi Jinxin said uncertainly.

"Listening to the voice, there are many people crying. Even if there are dead people in the family, there will not be so many people crying. Yang Qianyu shook his head and said, "The whole village is almost full of crying. How many deaths does it take to make the whole village cry bitterly? ”

"Maybe a lot of people died?" Shi Jinxin said. "If a dozen or twenty people die at once, it must be able to cause the whole village to cry, right?"

"Not really." Sun Xiaoyu shook his head and said. "So many people died at once? What happened to this village? Is it the plague? ”

"Probably not." Yang Qianyu denied Sun Xiaoyu's speculation. "If there is a plague, I am afraid that the villagers of this village will have moved away long ago."

"So what the hell is going on?"

"Who knows......"

"Hey, I said what are we doing here?" Li Xiang said: "As long as you go to the village and ask around, won't you know what's going on?" ”

After listening to Li Xiang's decision, everyone immediately understood that there was indeed no doubt that their group was guessing here, so they all shut up and stopped the topic of discussion. The convoy set off and continued in the direction of the village.

A few minutes later, the convoy arrived at the gate of Kelly Village.

"Where are the carriages and horses?" On the watchtower at the gate of Kelly Village, a big man with a hunting bow saw a team of chariots and horses appear, and immediately shouted and asked.

"We're travelers who want to spend the night because it's getting late." Yang Qianyu, who answered at the head, replied loudly.

Because the shape of the inheritance god costumes of the traversers is too unique, they naturally do not maintain their dress form on weekdays. At this time, everyone was dressed as ordinary travelers, and some people also wore long swords or daggers around their waists, which were used as guards and self-defense.

After looking at everyone, the big man with the bow turned his head to greet the door. After a while, the gate of the fence opened, and several villagers greeted them, led by a white-haired old man.

"Guys, I'm so sorry." I saw that the old man had a trace of sadness on his face, and said in a low tone: "If you want to stay in the village, you can do as you please. However, we have encountered some things in Kelly Village recently, and we really can't entertain you in detail. ”

Li Xiang and the others glanced at each other. "Old man." Fu Bin stepped forward and asked kindly: "We heard a lot of people crying in the village, what happened?" ”

"Well, traveler, don't ask." The old man shook his head, obviously not intending to say.

Without asking what happened, Fu Bin shrugged helplessly at his companions. The crowd rode silently into the village.

After entering the village, everyone saw that most of the villagers had sad faces, and some villagers had a black sash embroidered with a white cross on their right arm. Those who have learned about the funeral customs of the world of Yber know that this is an ornament that the deceased's relatives need to wear before being buried, but five or six out of ten villagers encountered along the way are actually wearing them, which is obviously not ordinary.

At this moment, a cry of grief suddenly came from a hut, and everyone stopped in unison. I saw that the villagers around the hut surrounded them, and the grief on their faces became more and more obvious. Several of the villagers were also talking in whispers.

"It's miserable, it looks like Dekker is dying."

"It's a pity, such a good lad."

"Yes, Annie's child is also very pitiful, just married to Dake and is about to be widowed."

"Well, that's fine, actually. Dyck's child, such an immortal is also a sin. Or dead simply. ”

"Don't say that......"

After listening to the conversation of the whispering villagers, Li Xiang and the others quickly exchanged colors. "Dongxu, Ah Zhao." Li Xiang turned his head and greeted. "You go and take a look."

Liu Dongxu and Yang Zhao nodded in unison when they heard this, turned over and dismounted and came to the thatched hut.

The two squeezed through the onlookers and entered the hut, only to see a young man covered in bandages lying on the wooden bed in the house, judging from the blood oozing from the bandages and the young man's chest cavity, which was almost undulating, he was already on the verge of death. On the side of the wooden bed, an old man sat helplessly on a chair and sighed and shook his head, and there was a medicine mortar on the wooden table next to the chair, in which there were still residues of mashed herb pulp. A young young woman knelt on the ground and cried, and several middle-aged women kept comforting her.

Yang Zhao and Liu Dongxu appeared in the house and immediately attracted the attention of everyone in the house. "Who are you?" When the old man who was sitting saw the two of them, he stood up cautiously.

Yang and Liu ignored the old man's question, and Yang Zhao went straight to the bedside and raised his hand to reach the nose of the seriously injured young man.

"What are you going to do?!" The old man shouted and asked, and at the same time raised his hand to grab Yang Zhao's wrist. "Old man, it's better to sit down and rest." Liu Dongxu stepped forward and raised his hand to press the old man's shoulders to press the old man back to his seat, turned his head to look at Yang Zhao and asked, "How is he?" ”

Yang Zhao probed the young man's snort and replied. "Not dead yet." After speaking, he quickly glanced at the young man's body. "But it's fast - there are multiple puncture wounds all over the body, some of which are overlapping and barely stoppable from bleeding. If this continues, blood loss alone can kill him. ”

"Can it be saved?" Liu Dongxu asked again.

Yang Zhao gave him a blank look. "Nonsense."

Liu Dongxu, who was rejected by Yang Zhao, grinned, raised his hand and signaled a 'please' action.

"Let's come along." Yang Zhao rolled up his sleeves. "A two-pronged approach can do more with less."

"It's fine." Liu Dongxu nodded in agreement.

In the next second, a halo flashed on the two of them. The outfits of 'Priest of Light' and 'Claw Druid' stand out. Then the two of them each cast a spell on the seriously injured young man lying on the bed.

"Medical."

"Rejuvenation."

A bright silver halo and a dark golden band of light enveloped the seriously injured young man's whole body in an instant.
