Chapter 4: Road Encounters
The first rays of the morning sun shone on Boro through cracks in the walls. Tiny particles drift slowly in the sunlight, and birds wakes up early in the treetops among the trees to pay tribute to the souls of the dead here with their loud songs.
Boro's eyelids twitched slightly in the sunlight, and a small insect flew into his face, as if intending to wake him up in this way.
Burning bodies appeared in front of Boro in an instant, and their charred faces were clearly restored. One of the women reached out her palm to the scar on his face......
"Don't!" Boro woke up in his sleep, breathing rapidly and cold sweat oozing from his forehead.
The worm was thrown to the ground, its mission accomplished, and it crawled neatly into the dark corners of the room.
When the Gree~ Mithril dagger fell to the ground, it made a crisp sound. The ghosts in the room are also dissipated.
"It's a dream. Boro picked up the dagger on the ground and pushed the door open, and the white light that enveloped the earth instantly attacked his eyes.
When his eyes were getting used to the sunlight of the outside world, Boro went to the two tombs and bowed to them in silence.
"I will avenge your vengeance. "Although he said so. But since he was a child, let alone killing, even a weak bug he never crushed to death.
Revenge may have to be accomplished by other means.
After the final farewell ceremony, Boro found some dry food for preserved fruit on the road in the village before leaving.
The endless woods, I don't know how long I'm going to walk here, the crow friend hasn't been seen since he left last night, I really don't know what he's doing now.
Boro was thinking about some of the things that he didn't have, and he kept checking the position of the sun in the sky.
"There is no way back. Don't look back...... "Boro took some food out of his bag and swallowed it dryly.
I patted my chest vigorously so that the food could fall smoothly into my stomach.
Holding the Mithril dagger to chop through the thorns to open the way, Boro couldn't help but wonder in his heart, "Who was that woman last night?
"It's ...... to even call me a weirdo How can that be?" Boro couldn't find the right words to scold, so he could only say, "Killed so many people without even blinking an eye." Maybe blink?"
The excitement provided Boro's body with endless motivation, and time flew by under these gibberish.
The dagger slashed through the dense thorn bushes in front of him, "Could it be that even you want to bully me?"
Boro clumsily brandished the Mithril dagger, and instead of cutting off his arm, the thorn bush was cut by the thorns first, and red scars appeared on Bai Zhi's arm.
"Demon, demon, demon!" Finally, I cut through the thorn bushes that blocked me, and what appeared in front of me was finally no longer revealing gloomy trees, but endless plains.
The divine light of the sun shines on every corner as far as the eye can see. Maybe this is the real outside world.
"White God, I'm coming for you!" Boro shouted from the edge of the plain and the forest.
A team of exorcists armed with Mithril weapons threw Boro inexplicable looks.
"I'm afraid I'm not a madman. The man in charge of the crossbow shot in the group smiled contemptuously.
"Perhaps. "The captain is a tall man, and the sword behind him makes people feel a heavy feeling just by looking at it.
"Leave him alone, don't forget that we have our own mandate. ”
"He, he seems to be coming towards us. The only girl on the team pointed at Boro in surprise.
"Huh?" The captain frowned, he hated trouble the most. "Leave him alone, let's go. ”
"Hey, friends from the front!" When Boro saw that they were leaving, he had no choice but to run over shouting.
I was already planning to leave, but I didn't expect this person to be so uninteresting and catch up with him.
"Something?" The captain turned around, revealing a ruthless face.
For a moment, Boro remembered the woman's cold face last night.
"I would like to ask, in what direction is the nearest village? I have run out of water and want to go to the village well to get some water. Boro smiled innocently at the man.
"Hey, did you hear that? He said that the village~ I'm afraid it's not a primitive person who just jumped out of the mountains. The archer scoffed. The body also began to laugh forward and backward. He stretched out his hand to the forest where Boro had just walked, "There's a village in there, but it's probably already been killed by the Bloodfiend. ”
"Yan Zhu, how can you do this!" The girl couldn't stand it and scolded him. "Everyone must be alive......"
"They're all dead. Boro's calm words made Yan Zhu, who couldn't stop laughing, directly stunned.
"Both...... Are they all dead?"
Not only him, but even the girl's breathing paused for a moment.
"I didn't see the blood demons you mentioned, they were burned to death by a woman. As he spoke, Boro pulled out a Mithril dagger from his bag.
"It was its owner who burned everyone to death. ”
Without Boro's consent, the captain grabbed the dagger and put it in front of his eyes to examine it carefully.
"This dagger has no effect, and the symbol on it is supposed to be a demon, but there is no way to determine who its owner is. The captain also said that he did not tell him that "exorcists will never expose their identities to weapons, because they hunt not only demons"
"So, you saw it all with your own eyes?" The girl asked eagerly, she hadn't seen the Blood Demon since she joined the Exorcist Squad, not even the Revenant who had been resurrected by the Blood Demon Blood Curse. "Can you tell me what happened?"
The captain also began to look at Boro with admiration: "After all, it shouldn't be ordinary people who can leave alive in the blood nest." Although the man looks silly. ”
"Can you give me a sip of water first? "Boro's throat is now unusually thirsty, and he can't wait to ask for a sip of water.
The girl immediately took out the water bag from her rucksack and handed it to him, "Drink." ”
Yan Zhu's eyes were cold, and he felt that his limelight had been stolen by this man of unknown origin. "Hey, Captain. Don't we still have a mandate?Time is pressing~"
"Well, Qingxi, we should go. The captain's bland words were like a basin of cold water poured on the girl's head.
"But, however, I haven't heard his story yet. ”
"If I don't bother with it, I can go with you. After all, I don't know exactly what I'm looking for. Boro poured a large mouthful of water.
"Thank you, Qingxi. ”
The girl took the water bag, lowered her head shyly and whispered, "No, you're welcome." ”
