Finally, Liu Min's small hand slipped off Rey's face.

It's dawn.

The peach trees are bathed in the morning sun, and the peach blossoms are blooming delicately.

Liu Min lost his voice and closed his eyes.

In front of him is a rope hanging down from the slope of Shimizu Mountain.

Rey's liver and intestines are broken.

"Twitter...... Chirp......"

A few cheerful birdsongs came from behind Rey.

Lei Yi sat down on the ground in a gloomy manner, Liu Min's body in his arms was already cold, looking at Liu Min's beautiful face with blood, Lei Yi cried loudly.

……

Why?

Why is this happening?

Not only did everyone sacrifice, but even Liu Min left him.

Why?

It's useless to blame yourself!

It's all to blame on the person who played the game! That's why it's like this.

Let's end it! Let's end it!

Rey was already in despair.

Why isn't the game over yet?

"Rey has completed his exploration of the caves in the valley, and the current goal of the game is 2/3."

The cold voice of the system sounded in his head.

Hmph, what's the use of talking about that now.

In the end, there was still no trace of Liu Gang, Liu Min must be very disappointed, right?

"Chirp, tweet, tweet."

In the peach forest behind him, the chirping of various birds mingled.

Why is there no birdsong at night?

Is it because it's so dangerous that even the birds don't want to come to this valley at night?

So why do you want everyone to come and slay dragons at night?

Could it be because the dragon is sleeping?

Is there really an evil dragon?

Looking at the dense peach forest behind him, looking at the green grass below the peach forest, and looking at the unknown small flowers in the grass, the strange feeling of disharmony in the cave came to my heart again.

Is there a conflict somewhere?

"Liu Min." Rey hugged Liu Min tightly in his arms.

The dragon, the giant monster in the pool, the weathered corpse on the camphor tree, the spring flowers, the summer rain, the autumn moon, the hibernation, the old man, all these echoed in Rey's mind repeatedly.

What went wrong?

There were no dragons in the delicate and bright cave, only Liu Min and himself who had transformed at the full moon.

Full moon? Butterfly? System prompt?

Suddenly, like an electric flash, Rey understood everything.

That's exactly what happened!

"Liu Min, let's go with me for a ride at the end. Everyone's sacrifice is because the evil dragon is doing evil, and I want to pull this evil dragon out and avenge everyone. ”

Lei Yi held Liu Min's cold body in one hand and the rope in the other, and slowly climbed up the hillside.

……

The slopes of Shimizu Hill during the day are very beautiful.

Surrounded by rolling green peaks, two potted plants bask in the sun on the windowsill of a low house.

The red flowers were even brighter than they had been last night, and a few drops of dew were hanging from the leaves of another pot of green grass.

There was silence on the hillside, and everyone seemed to be in the house, not yet out.

The pink peach blossoms on the peach tree were gently swaying with the morning breeze, and the cold dagger was still stuck in the thick trunk of the peach tree.

Back here, Rey felt like a world away.

Coming to a place two feet away from the windowsill of the low house, Rey gently put down Liu Min.

The white curtains have not yet been opened.

Rey looked at the curtains that floated slightly in the wind, and shouted into the house, "I'm Rey the Marriage Seeker. ”

In the middle of the night, an old voice came from inside the house, "It's Rey the Brave." How's it going, have you killed the dragon? ”

"Not yet, but soon."

"Soon? What do you mean? ”

"I'm sure I can kill the dragon, but I don't know if the old gentleman will be able to keep the promise and marry his daughter to me."

"It's natural, in addition to your daughter, you can also inherit the wealth of old age."

"I have captured the evil dragon and tied it up not far from here, but I am afraid that the old man will break his promise, so I have come to inquire."

"Caught the dragon? Haha, the old man is so happy, this evil dragon has really hurt us. Rest assured, as long as I see the corpse of the evil dragon, I will marry my daughter to you immediately. ”

"Okay. Can you let me meet Miss Chunhua first, the Chunhua I chose at that time. ”

"Okay."

In the middle of the night, the white curtains slowly opened, and the innocent face of Chunhua appeared in the window.

"Hello, Rey, I'm Chunhua." Seeing Rey standing outside the window, Haruka smiled slightly.

"Ah, I'm sorry, old man, since I'm sure I can kill the dragon, can I choose my daughters?" Rey said solemnly.

"You, you, you, what did you say?" Chunhua's sweet face flushed, obviously a little angry. Doesn't this sentence mean that the other party regrets choosing to himself?

"Smack."

The curtains were drawn again.

“…… Well, Rey the Brave. Who do you want to choose? The old man's voice revealed helplessness.

"Summer Rain!" Rey uttered two words very simply.

The curtains were pulled back again.

Xia Yu's energetic face appeared in the window.

"Hello Rey, I'm glad you picked me. But Sister Chunhua is obviously angry with you. ”

"Hello Xia Yu, I suddenly changed my mind again, I want to choose Miss Qiuyue."

"You ......" The cheerful Xia Yu also flashed a trace of gloom on his face.

The curtains were drawn again.

"Lei Yi Yong, you make it very difficult for the old man to be like this, it's just that, it's important to slay the dragon, Qiuyue, you should hurry up." The old gentleman seemed to be persuading Qiu Yue.

The curtains were drawn again.

"Hmph, I'm Qiuyue." A cold beauty with a frosty face, Autumn Moon, appeared at the window.

"Sir, you can't blame me for this, it's your daughters who are so beautiful, I'm really in a dilemma." Rey scratched his blonde hair and continued, "Otherwise, I would like to invite the three young ladies of Spring Flower, Summer Rain, and Autumn Moon to the window, so that I can compare them carefully and choose carefully." Or don't bother, can you marry all three daughters to me? ”

"Bang!"

The curtains were drawn again.

"Brave Rey, you're going too far." The old man's voice came from the house.

"Yes, Rey, you're going too far, what should I do with my hibernating lady?" A loud female voice also came from the house.

Hum! Still playing this set?

"Sir, there's something I've never been able to figure out." Rey's voice began to grow serious.

"What's the matter?" The old gentleman's voice was also full of vigilance.

"At first I was just skeptical, but now I'm sure."

"Sure what?"

"Do you really have four daughters?"

……

"You, what did you say?" The old man's voice became quicker.

"Let's think back to the time we saw the four young ladies last night. Yes, the four of them took turns offering wine to everyone, but there was an obvious problem. ”

"What's the problem?"

"That's four people never at the same time!" Rey suddenly shouted loudly.

A loud sound echoed in the air of the hillside

For a long time, the old gentleman did not make any sound.

"Just like when I pretended to pick your daughter, everyone is different, and that only says a thing." Rey continued.

“…… What's the problem? After a long time, the old voice sounded again,

"All your daughters are alone!"

"Why am I doing this?"

"Because different beauties will be more attractive than one beautie, and also because there is a question of the duration of the transformation."

"Time to transform?"

"That's right! In the cave, I did something that I would regret for the rest of my life, and I actually ......" Rey's voice grew quieter and quieter, and he gradually became unable to speak.

"However, I also discovered one thing at the same time, Liu Min and I who accidentally turned into monsters in the cave only lasted for a while. So, I wonder if your daughter has the same problem? The time for transformation is limited, and if there is only one daughter, it will soon be impossible to hold on, and the truth will be exposed. ”

"The truth, what is the truth?"

"The truth is, what is your daughter?"

"What are they?"

"Hmph, it's not just that your four daughters haven't appeared at the same time, in fact, there's another person who hasn't appeared at the same time as others."

"Who's that guy?"

"It's you!!"

Loud voices echoed again in the early morning air.

"Sir, not only are your four daughters the same person, but even you. All of these characters are transformed by one person. ”

"Why am I doing this?"

"Because you want eternal life!"

"Eternal life? You say I want eternal life? ”

"That's right! You use beauty, wealth, and the secrets of so-called immortality to gather the brave, then tell them that there are evil dragons in the caves of Peach Blossom Valley and let everyone kill each other, and then you will follow behind, absorbing the souls of the recently dead to achieve your purpose of immortality. ”

"You said I let everyone kill each other, what can I do to make everyone kill each other?"

"Whoever kills the dragon will receive beauty, wealth, and eternal life, and such temptation is enough for those with evil intentions to kill." Rey said as he thought of Akmon and Han Fatzi.

"There are also people who kill for fun." Zhou Gang's figure appeared in front of Rey again.

"Even if some people are full of hope and light in their hearts and will not do bad things, but when they come to the Peach Blossom Valley at night, there are no birds, and there are many dangers, and everyone may die at any time. Second, even if you are lucky enough to escape the fight with others, escape the danger, and come to the cave, there is another thing that will make everyone cannibalize......"

"Which thing?"

"Although it is pitch black in the valley, there will be a bright moonlight rising in the cave, and those who survive the moonlight will become monsters, and there has been a legend of evil dragons for a long time, so everyone will definitely kill each other."

"Why did you become a monster?" The old voice was no longer excited.

"The first is because of the moonlight, and the second is because adventurers have touched the same thing. Anyone who touches that thing will turn into a monster on a full moon night. “

"Is it clear water?"

"Nope. At first, I thought it was Shimizu sake, but everyone's personality is different, and if someone doesn't serve a glass and doesn't drink, it won't satisfy everyone. So it has to be something that everyone is guaranteed to touch. ”

"What's that?"

"That's your body! When we were offering wine, each of us touched your daughter, either actively or passively. Rey said as he recalled the scene of the wine being served last night.

Rey shook Chunhua's hand, Han Fatzi kissed Xia Yu's hand, Qiuyue kissed Mao's face, and Liu Min, Zhou Gang, Xichen and Akmun all took Hibernation's hand.

……

"Well, even if all of this is true, but you said that I followed behind to absorb the souls of the people who just died, have you ever seen me in the Peach Blossom Valley?"

After a while, the old voice came slowly.

"Yes!" Rey said loudly.
