"Old village chief, save my daughter! Now we believe the curse that the phantom old man said, and it is true that we were wrong, and if I had listened to you just now, my daughter would not have become what she is now. Please, save my daughter! Woohoo......"

As soon as the old village chief came to the villagers who had fled, a young woman who looked embarrassed, like crazy, rushed to him and cried out, holding in her arms a little girl whose body had almost all turned to stone.

And one of the woman's arms turned to stone.

"What the hell is going on? What's wrong with Xiao Qing'er? Your hand...... Tell me everything that just happened, and I can find a way to help you. ”

The old village chief was also taken aback when he saw the little girl in this woman's arms, except for her face, her whole body had almost become carved in stone, and she was dying, and hurriedly asked with concern.

"I don't know why this happened, after the twelve of us left here just now, we were a little worried about the curse at first, and we walked very slowly and carefully. However, after walking for an hour, almost ten miles, he found that nothing terrible had happened, and he never took it seriously.

After that, we decided to rest where we were, caught another hare nearby, and made a fire, intending to roast some meat to eat, and when we were full, we went to the town to rest again. I didn't expect ...... Woohoo......"

The woman said with a blank face, reminiscing as she spoke, and just as she spoke, she began to cry again.

"Hey! Just know to cry! Does crying work? I didn't agree to leave Yanjia Village before, you have to ask me to send you back to your parents' house, otherwise you won't let me see my daughter again for the rest of my life. It's good that our daughter has become like this. Even you and I are about to turn into stone people! ”

Just as the woman was crying and couldn't go on, a man beside her who had half of his face turned to stone sighed, and said in an extremely dissatisfied tone, obviously it was her husband.

"At the beginning, my family didn't agree with me marrying you, thinking you were poor, but I would rather cut off relations with my family before I followed you to this poor and dying Yanjia Village. However, in the past few years, have you let me live a good life? I'll tell you the truth, I'm fed up with this kind of poverty!

"My family is also a rich and noble family in the city, and I am also a daughter-in-law, when I asked you to plug the door upside down, be a door-to-door son-in-law, and live a good life together in my family, but you just love face, you have to take me to the broken village where birds don't, and now you are cursed! It's all your fault! If my daughter had three longs and two shorts, I wouldn't let you go!" ”

The woman listened to her husband's words, stopped crying immediately, and pointed to his nose and said fiercely.

"I ...... A dignified seven-foot man, with hands and feet, is fully capable of supporting his wife and children, why should I go to your house upside down and look at your father's old face all day long? Have you forgotten how your father humiliated my poor family in front of so many people at that time?

"He actually laughed at the birthmark in my palm like a toad, saying that if I marry you, I will be a toad and want to eat swan meat! It is said that the husband can be killed but not humiliated, don't you think your father has done too much? Let me tell you the truth, if it weren't for my daughter's sake, I wouldn't have starved to death and wouldn't have come to your house to eat soft rice! Hum! Woman's view! ”

The man waved his hands and complained somewhat hysterically. It's just that after half of his face turned to stone, this angry face looked much more hideous.

The other villagers were curious when they heard the man say that his father-in-law laughed at him for having a toad birthmark on his palm, and a few villagers couldn't help but laugh.

But Ye Rong and Yuan Xun, who came later, listened to it, but they looked at each other in surprise!

Because neither of them expected that after living in Yanjia Village for almost twenty years, they didn't even find that there was a person who belonged to the same kingdom as the two of them.

However, they soon reacted again, presumably this man didn't know his background at all, otherwise he would never have drunk and talked nonsense, after all, people like them, once they come to the mortal world to live, they must not reveal their identities.

Otherwise, he will be executed as a monster by mortals.

And when Yan Wuhuo inadvertently saw Ye Rong and Yuan Xun looking at each other with extremely surprised expressions, he suddenly remembered that Ye Rong and Yuan Xun were not frogs wearing golden crowns!

After that, it naturally occurred to me that this man was probably not a mortal anymore, but he had been fostered in Yanjia Village since he was a child, so he didn't know it.

"Who told you to get drunk and go around dreaming of the birthmark on your palm and turn into a frog with a golden crown! This has reached my father's ears, can it not laugh at you for making a fool of yourself? How can there be such a frog in this world? Besides...... "The woman was about to say something, but was interrupted by the old village chief.

"Alright, you two don't have to say a word, it's useless to argue about this now, it's better to find a way to save your daughter. Tell me what happened next, why did the twelve of you go out and only the five of you and this kid come back? And what about the other six? And all of you have a part of your body turned to stone, huh? ”

The old village chief decisively stopped their endless quarrel and asked suspiciously.

"Let's talk about it, when we were roasting hare meat, we found that the rabbit was roasting in the process, and there was a less obvious text on the body, as if it was a stone 'stone' word, and everyone didn't care about it at the time, and when it was cooked, we ate it separately, but I didn't expect that each of us had different places on our bodies, as long as we were close to the fire, that word would also be displayed!"

Just as the old village chief stared at the quarrelsome couple, waiting for them to answer, another middle-aged man behind them, whose leg had turned to stone, limped over and said.

"The word 'stone' for stone? Show up close to the fire? And what about later? The old village chief repeated, his eyes lit up, as if he had thought of something, and then asked.

"After that, we continued on our way. As we walked, we all felt that our bodies gradually became very uncomfortable. It seems that the whole body is weak and hot, and we are not surprised that the whole body feels hot, after all, we have just finished eating the barbecue and are in a hurry, and it is normal to have a fever and sweat.

"However, we soon realized that something was wrong. That is, there is a part of everyone that actually gets chills again! So, the five of us stopped and looked at our bodies to see what was going on. I was shocked when I saw it, and it was strangely frozen!

Especially the little Qing'er she was holding in her arms, she talked a lot and was very lively at first, but then she never spoke again. When we found out that her body was almost frozen, we knew we were in unimaginable trouble. Remembering the curse that Yan Wuhuo had said before, we hesitated, not knowing whether to move on or not.

So, we shouted to the other six people who were at the front, and wanted to discuss with them what to do next. However, in the distance, we found that the six of them had stopped at some point, and were just standing there motionless.

Out of curiosity, we chased after him. When we came to the six of them, we were all terrified! Because all six of them have turned into stone men! I tried to touch one of the stone figures lightly, but he suddenly fell down, and when he landed on the ground, he completely shattered!

He also raised a lot of dust, and when the dust settled, I saw that in addition to a pile of stones and powder, there was a bloody heart beating slowly. When I saw the heart, a blood-red spider crawled out of it, which scared a few of us to turn around and run back. We hardly dared to rest all the way, and we ran back with all our might. ”

The middle-aged man said with palpitations.

"It seems that there is something wrong with the hare, by the way, why did you all eat the hare, and everyone has a different part of the petrification? The six of them were petrified all over, can you tell me more about how you ate the hare? ”

The old village chief listened to the middle-aged man's words and asked thoughtfully.

"Well, I want to think about it...... At first, when the hare was first caught, it was still alive, but it was bleeding constantly. Considering that it is difficult for children to digest barbecue, they simply kept the hare blood, and gave part of it to the child Xiaoqing'er to drink, and the rest of the six of them divided it one by one.

"After that, when the meat was cooked, it was mainly eaten by the five of us, and as for the six of them, I don't know why they said that they didn't like to eat the cooked meat, they strangely ate the entrails of the hare's belly, which had been thrown aside. If you can't look at the five of us as disgusting, let them eat somewhere else. Later, they went first, and then they became stone men. ”

The middle-aged man pondered for a moment and said slowly.

When mentioning that the six people shared the internal organs, their expressions were very strange, obviously not understanding their tastes.

"I see, the five of you didn't drink the blood of the hare, so you survived, and the reason why the five of you are petrified in different parts, if I'm not mistaken, the part you petrified is exactly the part of the body of the hare you eat, right?"

The old village chief suddenly realized.

"yes, why didn't I think of that! I was the oldest of the five, so they gave me the best hind leg to eat. No wonder my leg is petrified. Luckily, I didn't dare to drink raw blood, or else I would ......."

The middle-aged man also suddenly understood the reason, and said with great fear.

"Ahh I knew that I wouldn't let my daughter drink rabbit blood! I ate a front leg at the time, no wonder one of my hands was petrified. And you ate half of the rabbit's head, so now half of your face is petrified! ”

The woman holding Xiao Qing'er in her arms said regretfully, and glanced at the face of her husband next to her as she spoke.

Hearing the middle-aged man and the woman say this, everyone looked at the other two of the five people who came back, and found that among the two people, a particularly fat young man had most of his upper body petrified, and it was obvious that he had eaten the body of a hare.

The other thin young man, with half of his face and one hand petrified, was evident that he had eaten the other half of the hare's face and front legs.
