Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Old Lady of Ponyville

I'm a little worried about the next trip to Ponyville, because it's impossible for a nine-year-old to protect me during the day, which means that I have to enter Ponyville alone, and there must be some mortal danger in that Ponyville, can I do it alone?

Why don't you go out tomorrow? But am I willing to do this? I asked myself if I was unwilling, after all, I had come this far, and if I didn't go in and see how I was willing. So I decided to work with Gawain and the others to find out the outskirts of Ponyville before deciding whether or not to enter Ponyville.

The next day, the six of us set off towards Ponyville together, and at the entrance of the temple, I saw the little cicada, so I took advantage of the fact that everyone didn't notice it, and just pulled out the tail ring from its mouth and threw it into the backpack.

The Ponyville is truly deserted, and is almost overrun by vegetation except for a barely walkable path. And it is also white fog during the day, and the visibility is about 10 meters. A few of us walked cautiously, and I was really worried that I would get lost if I continued like this.

Fortunately, after walking for a while, the white fog around me has faded little by little, and you should be able to see the outline of a village in the distance. It seems that Ponyville is just around the corner.

As we get closer, the outline of Ponyville becomes clearer, with black tiles and white walls similar to the architectural style of Wuyuan, but these houses are not beautiful when viewed from a distance, eerie, and exude a chill.

We stood on the periphery and watched, and Gawain took out a DSLR camera and shot at Ponyville. I'm a little nervous, is it really okay to take pictures like this? Just thinking about it, suddenly Xiao Yutong among the two girls suddenly exclaimed, "Someone!" ”

We followed her finger and looked, and sure enough, there was an old lady walking slowly under a large locust tree. She seemed to be very old, her hair was white, she walked tremblingly, and it took a lot of energy to move almost every step.

This should be a person, right? I was a little surprised, thinking that this must be a person, if it is a ghost, how can it be possible to act in the daytime, you must know that you can't do this at the age of nine, so this should be a person. But how can there be any living people in Ponyville? Didn't you say they were all dead?

Everyone was skeptical, and seemed to be hesitant to go over and have a look. But it's the interior of Ponyville, so what if it's dangerous? What to do? We discussed it for a while, and finally decided to go in, after all, we were all here to take risks, and it seemed impossible to walk away in fear without even encountering the slightest danger.

So we walked straight over, and it didn't seem to be any different, the interior of this pony village was not as desolate as we imagined, and it was not even different from the usual village, if there was a difference, the village was very quiet, very quiet, even the toddler old lady, she didn't even make a sound when she walked.

We slowly approached the old lady, and to be honest I was a little scared to look at her back, she was dressed in blue cotton and linen, like a person in the seventies and eighties. And her hair is almost gone, and you can see her scalp, which has a lot of age spots on it, and it is very oozing to look at.

And she kept walking, but she didn't even get a little distance, she seemed to be standing still. It's so weird, and against the silent black-and-white backdrop of Ponyville, I can't help but retreat, I think it's better to leave, this old lady and this Ponyville are very abnormal.

I told Gawain and them, but they were like evil spirits, saying that since they were here, they should go a little deeper, and if there was anything wrong, they would leave immediately.

The rest of the team agreed, and I had no choice but to keep close to the old lady. The closer I got closer, the deeper the uneasiness became, and I could clearly feel Gawain's body tense.

Finally we walked up to the old lady, but instead of going in front of her, we stood behind her and politely said hello and called grandma.

But the old lady went on walking her own way as if she hadn't heard, and I swallowed and looked at Gawain to see what they were going to do. They were also a little undecided, and finally Gawain gritted his teeth and walked directly in front of the old lady, and he called out to grandma, and the old lady still didn't move, and we walked in front of her together, and I saw her face at this moment.

It's a face full of wrinkles, no different from an ordinary old lady, but I always feel panicked when I look at it. She hadn't paid attention to us all along, but when she saw me, her dull expression changed, and she suddenly grabbed my hand and said in great surprise, "You're here, you're here, you're here!" ”

Her hand was cold, and it was uncomfortable to hold me, and I wanted to shake it off, but her words made me feel strange, as if she knew me, but I didn't know her at all, so I carefully asked her why I came.

She still said I was coming, and then she pulled me away, as if to pull me somewhere. I was a little scared, and looked at Gawain and the others, but these goods took out their cameras and pointed them at us, motioning for me to follow.

Actually, I'd love to get rid of it, but I think this old lady probably knows me, or my mother, after all, I have a nine-point resemblance to her, maybe my father just arranged for her to pick me up, so she stayed in Ponyville.

Thinking of this, I let her pull and walk, I found that this old lady's pace was not slow, but a little staggering, like a child who had just learned to walk, I was really worried that she would suddenly fall to the ground and ask me to lose money or something, no, what the hell am I thinking, not all old people are so bad, okay? No, shouldn't I be thinking about my parents right now?

The old lady took me along, and I took this opportunity to look around, and I felt that this village was not the dead village I imagined, but that there must have been a lot of people living here, because I saw that many of the houses were open and spotless, and the chimneys of many people's homes were still steaming, and they were obviously cooking.

Is this really the horrible Ponyville in the town's mouth? It's obviously just a forgotten village. But I walked for a while and felt that it was wrong, because this village is quite large, and there are traces of people in every house, but I didn't see a single person, yes, there were no old people, children, and adults. It's so abnormal.

I swallowed and looked back at Gawain, only to find that they were all gone. All my hairs stood on end, and they were still with me just now, but now they are gone.

I panicked so much that I hurriedly shouted a few words of Gao Wen, but no one responded at all. And my voice was lingering in Ponyville, and the echo sounded very eerie and uncomfortable. But I immediately realized that something was wrong, it didn't look like an echo at all, it was more like someone pinching his nose and deliberately learning me to speak.

"Gawain~Gawain~Gawain~"

It was still a man's voice, like a eunuch. I was trembling with fear, I patted the old lady in front of me and told her to let go, but she ignored me and took my hand and continued walking. I resisted, trying to break free of her hand, but her hand was too strong, not like an old lady's hand at all, just like a big man, I was pinched by her very painful, I didn't dare to resist anymore, and continued to move forward.

My whole body trembled terribly, to be honest, in addition to being afraid that I regretted it, even those powerful Taoist priests didn't dare to come in here, I am a weak woman who doesn't know anything, isn't it just to give people their heads when they come in?

I was terrified, and the old lady stopped at the door of a house, and she pulled me in. I grabbed the door panel and didn't go in, I thought I might die as soon as I got in.

At this time, the old lady didn't force it, she even let go of my hand and looked at me very kindly and smiled, "Don't be afraid, this is your home." ”

I was stunned, this is my home? I looked at the old lady strangely, and then looked at the house carefully, my head suddenly seemed to crack a crack, some memory fragment was overlapping with this house, I seem to have this house in my memory, and I vaguely felt that this house was mine!

My head hurts, I've never been to Ponyville, and it's the first time I've heard of Ponyville, but why do I have this house in my head, I feel like I'm going to explode. I looked at the old lady, and she smiled more kindly, "Come in, come in and you'll remember everything." ”

I was a little hesitant, but I had a slight affection for this old lady, and I felt that I could trust her. So I grabbed her hand and tried to go inside.

"Goo-goo..."

Suddenly the little cicada in my backpack screamed, I was stunned for a moment, what was it suddenly called? And its voice became more and more irritable, and I suddenly felt a feeling of nausea and couldn't help but retch. I rubbed some tears in my eyes because of this retching, but the sight in front of me scared me and screamed and hurriedly took a few steps back.

I saw a paper figure, a paper figure very similar to the old lady, it was all blue and red, and it was glaring at me, and I looked at the environment I was in, and I was standing in a very high place, and there was a stone pit below, and I looked down, and there was a rotting smell in my face, and when I saw the scene below, I immediately vomited out, and there were rotting dead people below.
