More than 2,000 miles north from the wild city, there is a strange rocky valley covering an area of 2,000 hectares, which is called the Strange Stone Valley.

Surrounded by mountains, the valley is very little vegetated, with only bare stones of various shapes visible from a distance, which is where its name comes from.

Although the food resources in the Strange Stone Valley are relatively poor, there are many mineral resources in it, so there is also this small village called Stone Village in the Strange Stone Valley.

On weekdays, because the land in the vicinity is very poor, the young people in the village will mine some ore from the strange stone valley and sell it in the nearest Taili City, and then buy food and supplies.

Although the stone village is relatively poor, it is very calm, and there are almost no robbers and bandits who come to rob, which also makes the residents in the stone village very comfortable and happy.

Today, a group of people, young and old, are gathering at the entrance of Ishimura Village, and at this moment, this group of people are looking at Taniguchi with expectant expressions on their faces, as if they are waiting for something.

In fact, what they were waiting for was the young people who had gone out with the ore three days ago, so that as was customary, now was the day when they returned with the items they had purchased from Taili City.

"Mom, how long will it take for your father to come back, and I don't know if he brought me sugar gourd this time. An eight or nine-year-old girl in the crowd seemed to be waiting impatiently to see Taniguchi, and the little girl kept bothering her mother beside her.

In the face of the little girl's incessant inquiry, the middle-aged woman not only did not get angry, but also hugged the little girl with a kind face, kissed her forehead, and smiled: "Daddy Xiaoxue will be back soon, so we will wait quietly for Daddy." ”

Although the little girl looked a little rebellious, she seemed unusually obedient under the words of the middle-aged woman, "Mother Xue'er knows." Between the words, Xiaoxue buried her little head in the arms of the middle-aged woman, and stopped making a fuss.

A long time has passed, but those young people have not returned, so that they should have returned as before, which makes these people standing at the entrance of the village have some more worries in their hearts.

"Is there something delayed on the road again?" said Nan Nan, an elderly woman in the crowd.

"It should be. A middle-aged woman agreed with the old woman.

"It must have been delayed, it must have been!" said an old man who looked to be half a hundred years old.

······

For a while, the crowd had already recognized that it was the delay in the journey that prevented these young people from coming back.

"Drive, drive, drive!"

Stomp, stomp!

Just as the villagers were standing at the entrance of the village, waiting anxiously, the sound of horses' hooves and the shouts of horsemen came from the valley.

"What's going on!"

"What the hell is going on!

"Who's coming?"

Listening to the sound of these hurried horses' hooves, the villagers standing at the entrance of the village looked a little anxious.

In the midst of anxious waiting, figures on horseback finally appeared at the mouth of the valley.

The moment they saw these figures on horseback, the residents at the entrance of the village panicked.

"It's a lonely goose and horse thief, everyone hide!"

Although the villagers of Shicun have not seen much of the world, they have heard of the notoriety of these lone goose and horse thieves who dominate within a radius of 100 miles.

According to the statistics of the Lone Goose Horse Thieves, there are more than 2,000 people, and three of the leaders are all masters who have reached the quartz realm, and the rest of the horse thieves are also very powerful.

If it was only strong, the villagers of Shicun would not be so afraid, and the real reason for their fear was because of the notoriety of the lonely goose and horse thief.

According to rumors, all the villages or small towns plundered by the lone goose horse thieves were killed by all the men and drained of their blood, and the good-looking women were killed and drained of their blood.

"Take the women, kill all the men!" a stout man who looked like a leader among the lone goose horse thieves ordered his subordinates around him.

"Woooooo

"Whoa!"

A cry full of madness and brutality came from the mouth of a lonely goose horse thief, causing some of the cowardly fleeing villagers to fall to the ground and unable to escape a single step.

"Kill, kill, kill! Leave no one behind!"

In an instant, a famous horse thief chased the fleeing villagers, and in an instant, flesh and blood flew everywhere, and the lives were fleeting.

"Don't waste a drop of blood!

The leader of the lonely goose horse thief, seeing that his men were only concerned about killing for a while, and did not carry out the task he had set for them, immediately turned pale.

Feeling the anger of his leader, a famous horse thief immediately did not dare to kill recklessly, but took out containers one by one and began to store bright red blood.

The slowdown in the speed of the lone goose and horse thief also gave the villagers a chance to escape.

"Xiaoxue, you hide in it, no matter what happens, don't make a sound!"

At the corner of a boulder, the middle-aged woman from before put her daughter Xiaoxue into the gap between the boulder and the ground.

Because the gap between the boulder and the ground was almost the same as the width of Xiaoxue's body, only Xiaoxue could enter, and the middle-aged woman ran in the other direction without saying a few words to Xiaoxue after placing it.

Not because the middle-aged woman didn't want to spend a little time with her daughter for the last time, but because at this moment the group of horse thieves chased after them again, and the middle-aged woman wanted to divert the attention of these horse thieves.

Under the rocks, Xiaoxue curled up, remembering her mother's words, covering her mouth to prevent herself from crying.

The screams still echoed through the stone village, and it was not until the setting sun that it faded away, and by now the light snow under the rocks had fallen asleep.

At this moment, there is no horse thief in the stone village, and there is only a corpse with blood drained from the body, and the skin looks extremely pale.

······

The sunset on the horizon slowly fell, and a slightly blood-colored crescent moon rose in mid-air, and the slightly blood-colored moonlight shone on the stone village, making the already dead stone village full of a gloomy feeling.

Under the rocks, the sound of hee hee suo slowly sounded, and Xiao Xue's little head slowly poked out of it.

As far as the eye could see, the corpse of a villager who was usually very kind to him appeared in his eyes.

Although eight-year-old Xiaoxue has always lived in the peaceful stone village, she already knows what life and death are.

Suddenly, a choked cry came out of Xiao Xue's mouth, "Grandpa Wang, Uncle Zhang, Aunt Hua·······"

As Xiaoxue walked past the corpses one by one, she choked up and shouted out from Xiaoxue's mouth.

I don't know how long it took, Xiaoxue's choking suddenly stopped, and Xiaoxue's eyes were staring at a middle-aged woman in disheveled clothes in a daze.

Although the blood in the middle-aged woman's body was drained at this moment, causing her face to change slightly, Xiaoxue recognized her as her mother at a glance.

The body is uncontrollable step by step, and now that the middle-aged woman is gone, Xiaoxue was originally crying, and her eyes were red, and for some reason she couldn't leave a single tear.

After arriving at the middle-aged woman's side, Xiaoxue looked at the middle-aged woman blankly and said nothing.

The sound of horses' hooves came from the mouth of the valley again, but Xiaoxue still looked at her mother as if she hadn't heard it.

Finally, as the sound of horses' hooves approached, two figures appeared at the mouth of the valley.

The two of them were dressed in completely different ways from the horse thieves, both figures were wearing a black night suit, one of them had an empty left sleeve on his left arm dancing in the wind, and the other figure was wearing a black dress and even half of his face was covered with only a pair of peach blossom eyes, but it was still difficult to stop his charming and bewitching aura.

These two people were Yue Mochen and Huo Lingxue who came out of the wild city.

"It's bloody, it looks like there's just been a massacre here. The tip of Yue Mochen's nose sniffed lightly at the bloody breath that filled the air, and couldn't help but look at the stone village in the valley.

Completely different from Yue Mochen's reaction, Huo Lingxue looked a little anxious and rode quickly towards Shicun, as if he wanted to determine something.

"Looks like it's going to be another bad night tonight!"

Looking at the crescent moon in the sky that was slightly glowing with blood, Yue Mochen's heart felt a sense of impending a storm.

"This is Uncle Xiao, this is Grandma Wang, this is Grandpa Niu!······"

The corpses of people who were very kind to themselves when they lived in the stone village with their master appeared in Huo Lingxue's eyes as they walked into the hour.

In an instant, Huo Lingxue felt empty in her heart, and a sense of loneliness instantly swept into the depths of her heart.

"Huo Lingxue, there is a little girl here, see if you recognize it!"

Just as Huo Lingxue was stunned, Yue Mochen's voice instantly woke him up.

Without any stop, Huo Lingxue quickly walked towards Yue Mochen's location.

When she got closer, Huo Lingxue saw Xiao Xue, who was silently staring at the corpse of a middle-aged woman.

"Little sister, can you tell my sister what happened?" Looking at the appearance of the middle-aged woman, Huo Lingxue recognized her in an instant, and vaguely guessed Xiaoxue's identity.

At that time, when she left Shicun, the woman's girl was only more than two years old, and now she has been away for nearly six years, which means that this little girl is also nearly eight years old.

"You are Aunt Xi's daughter Xixue!" Huo Lingxue stroked Xiaoxue's little head and asked gently.

Xiao Xue didn't react to Huo Lingxue's move, but Yue Mochen was a little surprised, after all, it was the first time he had seen Huo Lingxue look so gentle.

It seems that before she became a killer, she was also an innocent girl, and now that she is only seventeen years old, she has changed so much, it seems that she has also experienced a period of unbearable things in the future. Yue Mochen sighed secretly in his heart.

Xiaoxue still ignored Huo Lingxue, still silently staring at her mother.

At this moment, Huo Lingxue has already felt the feeling from Xiao Xue's body when she made herself a killer, Huo Lingxue is now sure that if she lets Xiao Xue go, as long as she doesn't die, she will become her next miserable self in the future.

"Xiaoxue, can you tell your sister who killed your mother and them, and my sister will give you revenge. ”

Huo Lingxue still gently stroked Xiao Xue's little head, but Xiao Xue still looked at her mother silently as if she hadn't heard.

"Huo Lingxue, come and take a look, what kind of clothes are left by this force. ”

Yue Mochen's call in the distance interrupted Huo Lingxue's actions to appease Xiaoxue, and in a few breaths, she came to Yue Mochen's location.

And Yue Mochen was holding a gray cloak engraved with a wild goose in his hand at the moment, and was carefully looking at it.

"This is the sign of a lonely goose!" Huo Lingxue confirmed the identity of its owner with just one glance.

"Then the bloody case in Shicun should be inseparable from Lone Goose. Yue Mochen looked at the sky when the crescent moon was glowing with a slight blood, and said, "What are you going to do?"

"Shicun is where my master and I have lived for more than ten years, and the residents in Shicun are very good to me, I want to help them take revenge!" Huo Lingxue's tone was very firm, without any sense of pretentiousness.

"I'll talk about revenge later, you go and find out the books left by your master first. Yue Mochen glanced at the very dilapidated houses in Shicun.

Huo Lingxue didn't say much, and her body disappeared in front of Yue Mochen's eyes with a flicker.

When she reappeared, she had an extra yellowed book in her hand.

"Looks like there's something I want to know, give it to me!"

Yue Mochen had already stretched out his hand towards Huo Lingxue, but who knew that Huo Lingxue suddenly put the book behind him.

"What do you mean by this!" Yue Mochen's face suddenly turned cold.

"I know it may be very shameful for me to do this, but I still have to do it, I can give you this book, but you have to go with me to find the lonely goose to take revenge, with my own strength there is no hope of revenge. ”

"You're going back on your word, aren't you afraid that I'll kill you directly? Yue Mochen suddenly looked at Huo Lingxue with a playful expression.
