Chapter 275: Tracking
Either the people in the shadows find them, or they do, and then go back during the day.
I don't know if it will be harmful to people if they are stunned, so the three of them watched the man return to the room and closed the door before leaving.
At midnight, the sun had already come out, and someone in the town opened the door, first cautiously poked his head out to look out, and saw that there was nothing abnormal, then he breathed a sigh of relief and began to work and rest normally.
The people of the whole town slowly came out, but few people greeted others, and they all hurriedly finished their own things and immediately went back to their rooms and closed the door.
Today than yesterday, I can feel more clearly that the people here are obviously afraid of something.
As soon as the woman opened the door, she saw three men standing outside her door who had made her son cry yesterday, three pairs of eyes looking at her without blinking.
She: "......"
It may be that the woman has not moved, and a small head has popped up behind her, and I saw that they timidly hid their heads behind the woman's legs, but they really did not cry.
"We don't mean anything, we just ask you something." Hua Man hurriedly said.
The woman sighed and touched Huzi's head: "Forget it, come in." ”
Seeing that they finally let go, Hua Man also breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Thank you." ”
"It's all coarse tea, don't dislike it, the master will come soon." The woman wiped her hands and served them three cups of tea.
Hua Man waved his hand: "Don't dislike it, don't dislike it." ”
But in a moment, a person came in the room, because it was an ordinary person, time was engraved on his face, about forty years old, but his sideburns were already a little white.
He sighed and sat down on the throne: "I am the mayor of this town, just ask me if you have anything." ”
Seeing that the other party finally didn't hide it, Hua Man hurriedly said: "It's your town......" thought about the wording, and said, "Has anything wrong happened recently?" ”
The mayor's hand squeezed the teacup: "Something unusual? He was a little confused, "No." ”
Hua Man didn't believe it: "Then why are the people here so repulsive to outsiders?" ”
The mayor smiled, and there were two deep folds on his face: "We have always been very xenophobic here, and it has become a rule, don't be surprised by the three of you." ”
It is true that there are some places that are xenophobic, and there seems to be nothing wrong with saying that.
"Last night." Hua Man pondered and asked, "Someone is out of town, does the mayor know?" ”
Thinking that no one had told him that a few more people had disappeared this morning, the mayor shook his head: "I don't know. ”
Hua Man explained: "Just next door to the mayor, a man went out at midnight and came back in the early morning. ”
"I guess I'm sleepwalking." "There are a lot of people in the town who have this bad habit. ”
The mayor's explanation is reasonable, if there is no death here, Hua Man will really believe it.
"It's all this time, isn't the mayor willing to tell us the truth?" Hanami leaned back and leaned back in his chair.
His patience is not very good, and his patience to say so much is already the limit of the limit.
The mayor looked nervous and said, "What are you talking about?" I don't understand. ”
"Tsk." Hua Manting said impatiently, "If it weren't for us, the person who went out last night might not be able to come back, you are the mayor of the town, don't you even care about the lives of other people?" ”
The mayor's hand holding the teacup was very hard, and his mouth opened, but he didn't say anything.
Hua Man didn't seem to care too much about the mayor's words: "You are free, if you don't agree, we will leave immediately." But ......," Hua Man added slowly, "you have to bear hundreds of lives in your town." ”
The mayor hesitated even more, the corners of his mouth pursed, and his fingers unconsciously rubbed the teacup.
After a while, the mayor sighed and said, "Actually, I won't tell you about this matter, it's for your good." ”
Hua Man raised his eyebrows: "What do you say?" ”
"That's right." The mayor squinted his eyes, as if recalling, "Actually, our town is cursed, it will be ominous for generations, and it will suffer all kinds of disasters. ”
"After doing this a few times, we didn't dare to look for monks again for fear that others would be implicated."
"And what's the curse you said?" Hanami asked.
The mayor sighed, "It's a matter of counting generations, since I was born, the last mayor of the town, my father, told me that the people of this town are burdened with a curse, which cannot be removed or eliminated, but can only be carried." ”
"I don't know the specific situation, I didn't know the details several generations ago, probably thousands of years ago, a couple came to the town, the woman had a big belly, it looked like she was going to give birth at any time, and there was no midwife in the town, so I didn't take them in for fear that the child would be born suddenly."
"Later, I heard that after the couple left, it seemed that some misfortune had happened, two adults and a child were not saved, and since then, people in the town have been disappearing and can't find the reason, and the ancestors thought that it was because they didn't take in the couple, so they were cursed by the good god, and then they found a lot of monks to no avail, but those monks never returned, and the people in the town gradually believed that it was a curse."
"Since then, for fear that other people will be affected, the people in the town have shown that they don't like outsiders, and this place is deserted, there are no villages nearby, and fewer and fewer people come."
"The people in the town keep disappearing? Didn't anyone come back? Hua Man asked.
The mayor said: "I can't say all the time, but I have heard it frequently, except for the one you said you said last night that you came back, there is no second person." That's why he explained to them what was going on in the town.
Maybe they really have a solution?
"Just ......," Hua Man frowned, "no one found out?" When they're gone? ”
According to his observations, it seems that there are very few single-family families here, and there are several people living together, so if the people in the same house are gone, someone should find out, right?
"Nope." The mayor shook his head, "It's quite inexplicable that they all disappeared, and everyone who disappeared will not be found until the next morning." ”
"If this continues, won't there be no one in your town?"
The mayor smiled bitterly: "The number of people has been decreasing, there used to be hundreds of people, and now there are so many left." ”
"The mayor." Hua Man thought for a moment and said, "Can we stay at your house first?" ”
It seems that there is only one breakthrough for the missing person.
Now that they have all said it, the mayor of the town did not let them sleep on the streets again: "Of course you can." ”
The mayor's house is quite large, so there is no problem living the three of them.
Huzi saw that they were not so scared anymore, and when he gave them fruits, he timidly added: "Brother and sister." ”
"Come, come to my brother." Hua Man raised his hand to beckon him.
Huzi took a step back, looked at his father and nodded at him, and ran over on his little short legs: "Brother." ”
"Tell my brother." Hua Man patted him on the head and said, "Why are you crying when you see us today?" ”
Hanamitsu doesn't think he's ugly enough to scare a crying child.
Huzi whispered: "I have seen people coming to the town......"
Mayor looked up, "When, why didn't you tell me?" ”
Huzi shrunk his neck: "About ten days ago." ”
"Did they tell you anything?" Hanamitsu patted him on the shoulder soothingly.
"Nope." Huzi whispered, "Just said that the people here are really not as good as there, and I didn't hear the others clearly." ”
"Then why didn't you tell me?" Mayor Mare's brow.
Huzi lowered his head: "Their expressions are very scary, I can't find them after speaking, and nothing happened after that, so I didn't say anything." ”
The mayor sighed and looked at them, "I wonder if this matter will help the three of you?" ”
Hua Man shook his head, he didn't know either.
They now knew too few clues to be completely coherent, and the curse that the mayor said, he didn't believe a word at all.
The curse of fart, if there is such a thing as a curse, then who would dare to harm people, not to mention, the people in Qingfeng Town did not harm anyone, but they were afraid that the woman would suddenly give birth and they would not be able to find the person who delivered the baby, so they didn't take it in.
If this can be cursed, then there will be few people left on the continent.
Originally, they wanted to follow the people who disappeared at night, but they thought that they knew that Qian Lixue was investigating, and for the next few nights, there was nothing abnormal in Qingfeng Town.
Hua Man listened to the irritation, things have not made any progress at all, and the mayor is quite happy, because there are no more people in the town!
Although it is not known what the reason is, the fact that no one has disappeared in the town now shows that the three young people who live in this town are useful.
"What should I do?" Hua Yue didn't have a clue, and turned to ask the other two, "If we don't do it over there, we can't stay here forever." ”
Even if they didn't talk about the Continental Championship that was just around the corner, they couldn't stay in Qingfeng Town forever.
"Ugh." Hua Man sighed, "If it's okay overseas, I can ask other people, even if it doesn't work, it's okay to take turns guarding it." ”
It's stupid, but it's effective.
It depends on which of them is more patient, they can keep guarding, but whether the other party can keep not making a move, is obviously unlikely.
"Tomorrow during daylight, let's take a walk around Qingfeng Town." Qianli Snow Road.
The few people Huzi met should have something to do with this matter, otherwise they would come to a remote place like Qingfeng Town, say a few inexplicable words and leave, unless these people are sick.
Hua Man and the two also thought of it: "Then let's leave tomorrow morning." ”
Only during the day, the people in Breeze Town are safe.
