Chapter 307: The Woman
After turning around back and forth, Li Yuan even searched the places in the house where people could hide, but he didn't find half a figure.
"Let's go to the next one, or not." He shrugged helplessly, this man has seen everything, it is useless to continue to wait here, it is better to find a living person and ask the specific situation.
So, they went out and arrived at another one-story thatched hut, gently pushed the door in, and Li Yuancai called out, "Hello, is there anyone?" Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a man lying upright on the bed in the diagonally opposite room.
The room was dimly lit, smelling musty, and cold.
When Li Yuan and Wu Zhi arrived at the house, they only saw a man who looked like a hunter lying on the bed, like a dried corpse.
"Wouldn't it be, an old widower too?" Li Yuan tugged at the corners of his mouth. What is this, widowers' village......
"No, there are traces of someone else living here, at least a woman." Wu Zhi found a box of low-quality rouge gouache on a dilapidated bedside table.
"What's going on? Sure enough, just like in the TV series, is love not as good as family affection? Li Yuan scratched his head and said, at that time, the woman was crying to death, but she never left her father's side......
"Don't give me a poor mouth!" Wu Zhi couldn't help but pinch it in his ear, "It should be under the centralized management of the city lord of the Dark Demon City, probably." Ordinary people must be panicked when they encounter this kind of situation, and they are afraid that they will suffer from it or something...... Who knows if this thing will be contagious, but now we look at it and it shouldn't. ”
"You say, did the Dark Lord walk with the necromancer?" Li Yuan's eyes narrowed.
"It's not good yet. If this incident was behind him and the necromancer, would it be better if he destroyed the corpse? Wu Zhi asked rhetorically.
"No, isn't he afraid of red names?"
"With his power, dealing with such a group of people at his mercy, he does not necessarily need to bear the price of a red name to destroy evidence. Have you forgotten? It is not an experience to use some force of nature or accident to cause death. ”
"Then ......" Li Yuan pondered for a moment: "Oh no! ”
He rushed out of the door, quickly passed through the small path in the village, and looked around, the whole village was lifeless, without any life.
Li Yuan's face gradually turned pale, "Damn Black Demon City Lord, is it ......?"
"Wait a minute!" Wu Zhi suddenly stretched out his hand to stop Li Yuan.
"What's wrong?" Li Yuan asked.
Wu Zhi didn't reply, she just pricked up her ears to listen, and after a while, she spoke: "Did you hear anything?" ”
"Huh?" Li Yuan was stunned. Immediately, I calmed down and listened carefully, and sure enough, faintly, there was a strange sound that appeared from time to time, like a song......
Hey, that's weird, isn't it...... Deserted village, inexplicable singing...... Is this really a horror movie scene...... Li Yuan couldn't help but slander.
"Go see?" Wu Zhi asked.
"Well, it's all here, so let's go and have a look." Li Yuan said. Although I know that Wu Zhi will be a little scared of these weird things, but since there are clues in front of her, you can't turn a blind eye, right?
If the person who came was Miyuki Sakamoto, she was afraid that she would die of joy...... Li Yuan walked ahead, at this time, he, who was a man, naturally couldn't retreat.
Walking in the direction from which the sound came, the singing gradually became clearer, and at the same time, there were some gongs and drums, like the sound of people who had died in the past, and when they were doing things.
No, people here are also particular about funerals or something? Li Yuan was a little curious, shouldn't it have been turned into an energy factor, and it would have been dissipated in the air for a hundred years? Is there such a thing as a dead life and an afterlife?
They continued onward, walked through the path, turned the corner to a slightly wider road, and continued along the road until it came to the end.
Before their eyes was a huge sinking pit, like a square, where a tent stage had been set up and covered with strips of white cloth.
On the stage, a man dressed in a Taoist costume held a peachwood sword, babbling there, unable to understand what was being said. The peachwood sword in his hand made it haunting, as if he was fighting something, and it made you come and go, and it was very pleasant.
It's just that from the perspective of a discerning person, this old Taoist priest makes it all showy, and it is useless. Li Yuan dared to guarantee that if they really fought, he would definitely be able to let this old Taoist priest lie there within three rounds, even if he didn't take advantage of his attributes.
It's just that the people in the tent below have respectful faces, kneeling on the ground with their hands appropriate, and muttering in their mouths, as if they were those old women in the countryside who prayed for peace with the Bodhisattva in the TV series.
"The people here really believe this." Li Yuan muttered.
"Such a large law field should have been made by the Lord of the Dark Demon City." Wu Zhi glanced around.
"Well, it looks like that guy didn't want to kill someone?" Li Yuan was stunned: "So he didn't get involved with the necromancer?" ”
"Still not sure. I guess if a large number of people die mysteriously on his territory, I don't think the 'governing body' or the General Directorate of Law Enforcement on the Central Capital side will turn a blind eye, after all, the Lord of the Dark Demon City is still appointed and must be responsible for a certain agency. ”
"Uh-huh."
"Let's take a look at the side, I'm afraid we won't be able to ask anything when we go down."
"Okay." Li Yuan answered, and immediately got up with Wu Zhi and turned along the huge pit.
Until the back, there is a small jungle.
Li Yuan and Wu Zhi were a little curious and went into the jungle for a walk. I didn't go far when I heard a faint sobbing.
They forgot to glance at each other, and crept their way to that place, and in a moment a woman crouched in the woods not far from them, with her back to them, and her body trembled.
Not?! I've seen this plot! That woman must be a zombie...... Li Yuan remembered a drama she had watched before, if she stepped forward and reached out to touch her at this time, she would suddenly turn her head and pounce on you with her hideous fangs......
At that time, he was still startled, and he was having nightmares when he slept at night......
In a trance, he accidentally stepped on the broken leaf on the side, and there was a clicking sound.
The woman turned her head sharply at the sound.
Here it comes! Li Yuan's heart rose to his throat, and he subconsciously pressed his hand on the handle of the knife.
But the woman only looked back, and suddenly snorted, cried, and then twisted her rather thick waist and ran away.
"Huh? She's not a zombie? Li Yuan was stunned.
"What are you thinking?" Wu Zhi couldn't cry or laugh, and slapped him heavily on the shoulder: "Chase it!" ”
"Oooh!" Only then did Li Yuan react and chased after the woman with Wu Zhi.
In terms of personality, that woman was probably an ordinary resident, so naturally she couldn't outrun Li Yuan and Wu Zhi, so she cried desperately and ran as hard as she could, stumbling and almost falling down.
"Well, we're not bad guys." Li Yuansheng was afraid that she would accidentally fall and hurt herself, so he hurriedly shouted. As soon as the words came out, he felt a little strange, as if no bad person would say that he was a bad person......
At this time, the woman was desperately running a little faster, and Li Yuan was even more embarrassed.
"What the hell am I ......" he tugged at the corners of his mouth, and with a thought, he urged the hermit cloak and chased after him.
The woman ran too fast, and when she accidentally tripped over the root of a tree that protruded from the ground under her feet, she threw herself forward with an "ah" sound.
It's just that at the moment when she was about to fall, a strong force pulled her up.
She looked up at Li Yuan in a daze, and then suddenly cried out "wow", crying and beating Li Yuan: "I don't want to go back!" I don't want to go back! I'm going back to see my husband! ”
"Calm down! Ma'am, I didn't ask you to go back. Li Yuan grabbed her hand, and the woman twisted her body desperately and struggled, still muttering: "Don't touch me, I won't go back!" Uh-huh, I'm not going back! ”
"Calm down! Calm down! We won't take you back. Li Yuan was comforted for a while. At this time, Wu Zhi also rushed to the scene, looking at Li Yuan's embarrassment with a smile, Li Yuan was angry, and gestured to her with his eyes.
"Don't worry, eldest sister, we are not in the same group as those people, we didn't come here to send you back, you calm down first, okay?" Wu Zhi whispered in the woman's ear.
Maybe it's Wu Zhi's way of speaking, or maybe it's her tone, which is really convincing. Hearing her say this, the woman finally quieted down, with tears still in the corners of her eyes, and asked, "Didn't you really come to take me back?" ”
"Of course, we're not in league with them." Wu Zhi spread his hands: "If necessary, we can also escort you back to find your old man, uh...... Husband. ”
"Really?" The woman looked surprised.
Hey, I said woman, what do you mean, you don't believe what I say, do you? I look so much like a bad guy, I shouldn't have pulled you just now...... The corners of Li Yuan's mouth twitched.
The woman twisted her ankle, and with Wu Zhi's support, she moved little by little.
"Are you alright?" Wu Zhi asked with concern.
"It's okay, thank you." The woman smiled at her, completely ignoring Li Yuan.
"Be careful." Wu Zhi saw that her toes almost broke again, so she hurriedly pulled her.
"Thank you, thank you." The woman thanked her again and again.
Under several attacks, the woman completely fell, so Wu Zhi talked to her while walking: "Eldest sister, you love your husband so much, your husband must be very good to you." ”
"Oh no!" The woman flicked her hand shyly: "He's just a big guy, he doesn't have much ability, and he has to say that he wants me to live a good life." Is! I don't understand a woman's mind at all! ”
Speaking of this, the woman was both happy and disgusted: "To tell you the truth, where would I think about that!" I just want him not to fight so hard, and the two of them will live this life in peace and stability. ”
"But, but she ......" Speaking of emotion, the woman was embarrassed, and tears remained: "The danger of going into the mountains to hunt is dangerous, and I advised him not to go, but he did not listen, and sometimes lied to me...... Woo! Say yourself, say you've found something serious in the bazaar......"
"I'm so happy for him!" The woman hid her face and wept, and slowly squatted down as if she had lost her strength: "But I didn't expect him to lie to me in order not to worry me." Just a few days after he told me, when he came back, he actually, this happened! Woo! ~”
