The old lady didn't let us out because she knew what the town was like in the night, and it stands to reason that she also picked the fruit. Isn't it supposed to be the same as these townspeople?

Think about it carefully, what else did the old lady tell us at the beginning? Close the windows and don't go out.

That's right!

"Let's go, follow me upstairs!"

"Aren't we going to the woods, going upstairs?" The big head asked, puzzled, and the others didn't understand what I was trying to do.

"Just follow me!" I urged them.

I went back to my room and looked out the window, there was no one in the empty street, and Ling Xiao's eyes widened in surprise.

Then I pushed the window open. Sure enough, we saw the townsfolk wandering the streets again. And it's not just my room, it's the windows in other people's rooms.

Because it was also dark when I was attacked by those two bodies, I once looked out the window and the streets were empty. In other words, the windows of this inn have some kind of illusion attached to them, and when you close the windows in the dark, you will only see the empty streets, and once you open the windows, the illusion will be broken. Grip the fork technique.

The old lady must know this, why is she afraid of being found out about the abnormality of the townspeople, could it be that this qiē is her ghost?

We searched the inn and saw no sign of the old lady, was it because we had discovered her illusion and fled?

Actually, if you think about it from the perspective of an old lady. She runs an inn, and of course she doesn't want guests to open the window and see the sleepwalking townspeople outside. That would definitely be scared away immediately, and her business would not be able to continue.

The fact that she was so enthusiastic when she first met us showed that she cared a lot about the inn's business, so it was probably the illusion that helped her retain guests.

"Looks like we're trying to figure out what's going on in this town. Still have to ask the little boy. After Yujie finished speaking, she left the hotel, and after a while, she came in with the little boy.

Judging by the tear stains on the boy's face. He must have been crying again when we left.

"We will definitely help you, don't be afraid." Yujie comforted him and said, "Can you tell Sister Sù first, is there anyone in the town who hasn't touched green fruits like you?" ”

The little boy pursed his lips and thought, "Yes, but not much." ”

"Then why don't they stop everyone?"

"Some of them think it doesn't matter, they just need to make money. Some are timid, and they dare not come out when it is dark. The people in our town are not bad, they just want to make money. I told them that they were poisonous fruits that would harm them, but no one listened. ”

Yujie asked the boy how long the fruit had been grown. He told us that we had been planting for two years, but that we had only started harvesting in the last six months.

So the townsfolk have worked hard for two years for these herbs, and this is finally a good harvest, so I'll let them give up? I'm afraid it's unlikely.

"Why don't we burn all those fruits with a fire!" As soon as the big head was in a hurry, he blurted out such a magic trick.

"You think this is Kang Jiawei!" Yujie glared at him.

Naranno also shook his head, "Anyway, this fruit is also the stuff of the townspeople, we can't just burn it, and even if it is burned, they will continue to grow it, this method will not work." ”

The big head suddenly stopped talking like a deflated ball, and Ling Xiao felt that he should try to persuade these townspeople to realize the danger.

Qianmo shook her head, "I'm afraid this idea won't work, I don't think they will listen to us." We are all outsiders, and if we dictate the fruits of their labor like this, they will definitely kick us out. ”

There were several ways to gossip, but none of them worked. I glanced at the townsfolk who were sleepwalking outside, and checked with the little boy again and again to see if anyone had died in the town in the past six months because of growing fruit, and he said no.

At this time, I already had a plan in mind.

"We're not saviors, these townspeople, we can't save them, even if we give them all our money, they will spend it again in the future, so I want to take this child and his sister away."

The others were silent for a while, knowing that doing so was like seeing death and not saving them, but we really didn't have that much power, and what we could do now was to rescue the two siblings.

"Will you come with us? Will your sister agree? Qingxue asked him worriedly.

The little boy nodded, and said that as long as he could save his sister, he would persuade her.

After deciding on it, we didn't delay for a moment and started to act, the little boy went to the house to pack his luggage and bring the necessary things, Ling Xiao and Na Lanno and I were responsible for preparing the carriage, and a few girls went to bring the unconscious sister over.

With her siblings in a carriage, we left this strange town overnight, and we felt like we were fleeing.

"Hehe, fourth brother, why are we so like stealing children?" The big head was heartless enough, and he said to the little boy in the carriage: "Young man, are you afraid that we will sell you?" ”

Yujie hurriedly glared at the big head, "Everyone has already left their hometowns, and you are still in the mood to say such things!" ”

The big head didn't dare to squeak anymore, and after walking for a while, the day came, and we were long away from the town.

"Sister, are you awake?" The boy said excitedly.

Luda quickly pulled up to the side of the road, opened the door, and we all got off our mounts and walked over.

"Why are we here, who are you?"

Luda tells her not to be afraid, and the little boy explains how we saved them overnight, and as expected, his sister gets angry.

"Why are you so foolish! We left home, what about those herbs, without herbs, how can we have money to treat your legs? ”

After saying that, my sister was about to get out of the car, Qianmo stopped her with a smile, and took out her small sachet again, "Little sister, don't worry, let's see if these are enough for your two sisters and brothers to use in the future?" ”

My sister didn't want to listen to Qianmo's words, but she still opened the small sachet suspiciously, and it could be seen from her expression what this sachet meant, she covered her mouth and asked in surprise: "How can you have such a precious thing?" ”

Qianmo and Qingxue looked at each other and smiled, and replied, "Because these are just my tears." ”

The elder sister was holding the sachet and hugging her younger brother, almost crying, "Why are you helping us?" ”

I told her that if we could, we would have liked to help all the townspeople, but unfortunately we couldn't do it.

"But even if we had money, we didn't know where to go, we never left the town, and my brother's leg needed healing."

Luda reassures her not to worry too much, "You know Kun Anguo, right? That's where I came from, the products are abundant, the climate and environment are much better than in the north, and I know a miracle doctor who should be able to cure your brother, why don't you go back with me?" ”

Indeed, for this sister and brother, such an arrangement could not be better.

The girl was very grateful when she heard this, "Of course it would be nice if you could!" In fact, I also know that since I came into contact with the green fruit, my physical condition has not been as good as before, and in addition to being able to sell the fruit to make money, I can't take good care of my younger brother. We are willing to go with you, but this great favor is really unrequited. ”

After the girl finished speaking, she pulled her brother to kneel down and kowtow to us, and we quickly helped them up, and I said that I still had a few questions for her.

"Can you sue me, who taught you to grow this herb?"

"It's the owner of the inn where you stay, the old woman."

I looked at the others, and it seemed that this matter really had something to do with the old lady, so her disappearance was unusual.

I then asked her, "Who are those who come to collect herbs?" ”

"It's a man from the capital, I heard that he seems to be a big herb merchant, so he is also well paid."

The herbalist must know what kind of side effects this fruit will bring to the grower, and when I get to the capital, I must find a way to meet him for a while!
