Chapter 410: Green Fruit

I walked straight to the two corpses and put my hand into the hooked nose's body, but after searching for a long time, I didn't find his ghost. It's the same with small eyes. As soon as I pulled my hand out, their bodies were gone, this time literally dead.

What had just happened was no less than seeing a corpse crossing the street in the human world, and I turned to look at Luda, "What the hell is going on, are you going to continue to hide it?" ”

Luda was no longer as calm as she used to be, and she seemed anxious, "I really don't know what happened to them!" I'm just acting on the king's orders! ”

Neither the tone of her voice nor the expression on her face looked like she was lying, "Then you will tell us the king's orders, and how they came to be like this." Otherwise, I really can't believe you. ”

Before Luda could answer me, there was another "squeak, squeak" sound on the stairs, and we immediately tensed up again, but this time it was the old lady who was the shopkeeper.

"What's the matter, so noisy?" Her old voice echoed through the dimly lit hallway.

"Oh, it's okay, catch the mouse!" Yujie reacted quickly.

The old lady was silent for a while, muttered, "How can there be rats?" and went downstairs.

After the old lady left, I called everyone into my room and let Luda finish speaking.

"As I said before, these two are warriors of Kun Anguo. But then the king found out that they were in frequent contact with strange people, so he asked me to investigate secretly. This time, they left Kun'an directly, and I followed them all the way here with my men, and watched them walk into a forest to the north. ”

"Because the forest was so dense that we couldn't see the two men after us, until we heard their screams and knew they were in danger, but when we arrived, the two of them were lying motionless on the ground. The face is like ashes. ”

Luda lowered her head, her hands clenched, her voice trembling slightly, and we all held our breath as she told her what had happened.

"I wanted to see the injuries of the two of them, but suddenly a group of people rushed out from behind the trees, and I was almost attacked, but fortunately a soldier blocked the fatal blow for me, otherwise I would have died.

It was a very strong group, and all the men I brought with me were killed, and my back was wounded in the battle. Of course, those guys also suffered heavy casualties and fled for their lives.

Wait until the end of the qiē. I found out that the two of them were actually dead, but I thought it was strange to see that their bodies had not disappeared, so I managed to steal a carriage. I wanted to take them back to Kun'an Kingdom and hand them over to the king, but I didn't expect to meet you halfway.

As for your suspicion that I gave you the wrong information when I was Kang Jiawei, and that you were attacked, I also feel guilty, but I explained, and you don't intend to believe me at all, so I don't want to say more in the end. ”

Although things are very weird, I still breathe a sigh of relief, after listening to Luda's words, I feel that this gap between us can finally be solved, and my previous attitude towards her was not very friendly, and I was a little reluctant, "Luda, I hope you don't blame us for being unreasonable before, I really don't know whether to trust you or not." ”

Yujie was also a little embarrassed and said to Luda, "How good it would be if you said this earlier, we wouldn't have been so unpleasant." ”

Luda let out a sigh of relief, too, and smiled faintly at us.

"Can you take us to see the place you mentioned?"

"I've made it so clear to you, do you want to go? I survived. ”

I told Luda that I was more concerned about the evil spirits that could not die than about the dangers. Naranno was also busy saying that he would accompany us and reassure Luda.

"Okay, then wait for the day to pass, the light there is too dark, and if it is night, it will be even more dangerous." We accept Luda's suggestion.

The day didn't make us wait long, and the next day it came at noon, and when we went downstairs, we didn't see the old lady of the shopkeeper, nor did we see any other customers, only the ghost people on the street were still as expressionless as yesterday.

Luda unloaded the carriage and rode us straight to what she called the Mystic Forest.

We walked north for a while and then left the main road and entered the woods by the roadside. At the beginning the trees were still relatively sparse, and the further forward we went, the denser they became, and our mounts were able to walk slowly at first, but in the end we couldn't get through guò at all, so we had no choice but to go on foot.

"Did you find anything strange here?" Yujie asked suddenly.

"There are too many trees, and they are still gloomy," the big head looked around nervously and answered Yujie's question.

But Yujie's strangeness doesn't just mean the changes in the trees, "I mean the sound, there's not even the movement of the animals here, don't you think it's strange?" ”

I stopped and listened, and sure enough, there was no sound.

There was a smell of death in the woods, thicker thickens in the depths, and a white mist shrouded in us, and we were on the lookout for danger that might arise at any moment.

I noticed that there were a lot of low shrubs growing on the woodland, and there were some green fruits on them, almost under every tree.

"Luda, did you see these wild fruits the last time you came?" I asked her, pointing to one of them.

"Well, there's more to come."

The big head looked at the green fruit and was very curious, and he was about to put one in his mouth, but Naranno quickly stopped him, "In the demon world, not everything can be eaten, and this forest is so strange, so be careful." ”

Although the big head muttered for a while, he still threw the green fruit away. Clamp just long skills.

Naranno asked Luda how far she had been from where she had found out where the two had been.

"It's close, so be careful."

Then I suddenly heard a rustling sound, obviously something stepping on the fallen leaves, "Shhhhhhh "I told everyone to stop and quickly stand back to back in a circle.

The sound was coming from deeper into the woods, and it was getting louder and closer!

"Huh? Why are you here? ”

It turned out to be the old lady of the innkeeper, who carried a large basket on her back and a small hoe in her hand, and today her back seemed to be more tightly tightened, and it was almost at a right angle to the ground.

It turned out to be her, we were all relieved, we didn't see this old lady when we went out today, it seems that she came here.

Qingxue saw that the old man was struggling with the basket on his back, so she wanted to step forward to help, but was dragged back by Yujie and reminded her in a low voice: "If this is really the dangerous place that Luda said, what is she doing here as an old lady." ”

I was about to walk over to ask the old lady, but she raised her hand and shouted, "Don't move, don't move!" ”

Seeing her look like I was about to step on a bomb, I froze in place for some reason, "What's wrong?" ”

"You almost stepped on my baby!" The old lady's tone was slightly reproachful, and then she looked at the others behind me, "What are you doing here?" ”

I casually perfunctory to her, "The scenery here is nice and quiet, let's have fun." What about you? ”

She let out a hoarse laugh as she opened her black hole, then pointed to the basket behind her, "I'm here to pick herbs." ”

She took off the basket and beat her waist, let us see the contents of the basket, and when I saw it, it was actually half a basket of green fruits, which turned out to be herbs.

The old lady told us that this green fruit was actually a very rare herb, and that the whole town made a living from growing it. Because this forest is both shady and humid, it is perfect for this herb to grow.

The herb harvesters were coming in the past two days, so the old lady was hurrying to pick the ripe fruits, and she went out early this morning.

In that case, it seems that the old lady and the people from the town have been coming here a lot lately, will they see the situation of those two people? So I asked her if anything strange had happened in this forest lately.

"I'm afraid the strangest thing is that you actually came here to see the scenery." She looked back at me meaningfully, and then laughed again, not to mention how weird it was.
