curse

The breeze blew gently, the warm sunlight covered the earth, and the grass spit out tender buds in the sun.

But it was supposed to be late spring and early summer, but the shoots of these little grasses were covered with frost. A short girl, with silver hair lazily draped around her waist, a small nose, and delicate lips exuding a charming luster, like flower petals, like pearls. A pair of clear and translucent eyes, but revealing perseverance.

She held a huge battle axe in her hand, about 1.7 meters tall, but more than a dozen centimeters taller than herself. Although the weapon was huge, it was obviously easy to see her light steps.

"Ahh A miserable scream came from mid-air, alerting the surrounding creatures, and a figure was falling from mid-air at a rapid pace.

Bang bang bang, that's the sound of branches being broken continuously. Then with a bang, Ye Anran fell heavily on the cold grass.

"Ah~ It hurts, my head is dizzy, it hurts, but fortunately, the surrounding trees are luxuriant, if not, there is no buffer point, and I only rely on my body to resist and fall into a serious injury."

Ye Anran slowly stood up and pounded his back while muttering. Suddenly, a chill hit, and his body reacted instinctively, squatting down quickly, only to hear two swishing sounds, and two ice blades passed over his head at great speed.

Two knocks actually penetrated the big tree that the six people could only hold together. "My muscle memory is faster than my own thinking. What the is this!! though"

The monster was huge, like an oval ball of flesh, and his skin was festering. But it doesn't smell like it's because there's a thin layer of frost on it.

His back was covered with fleshy lumps that looked like a human face. Each face has a different expression, frightened, painful, struggling. Six short arms, exceptionally disproportionate to the body.

Ye Anran glanced at the torso of the tree that had just been pierced, the hole in it had been filled with ice, and a thin layer of ice had formed on the surface of the tree.

Just when Ye Anran wanted to escape, he only heard "Save me, save me!" The faces on the back of the meat ball could actually speak, and they cried and struggled, as if they wanted to break away from the monster. Each struggle pulled the flesh of the monster's back together. Extraordinarily weird and infiltrating!

Then there was a scream, and the monster struggled to run into the distance. Ye Anran moved, and his feet, which were about to lose consciousness due to the cold, jumped up several meters high.

Along the towering trees, all the way up to the top of the tree, Ye Anran was stunned by the scenery in front of him.

It was a very large forest, but it was strange, and the trees at the very edge of the forest were unusually tall and thick, fifty or sixty meters high, looking out into the middle of the forest. The density and height of the trees decreased from the outside to the inside, and finally returned to normal.

Ye Anran patted the thick branches endowed with toughness under his feet, jumped up hard, and hung down heavily, with the help of the toughness and rebound of the branches, Ye Anran actually jumped to a height of dozens of meters, observing the scenery in front of him more carefully.

The outermost layer of trees was so green that nothing unusual could be seen, and a few kilometers inward, the trees slowly began to turn pale, and the entire grass was covered with ice, and in the interior, the appearance of the trees gradually became a little distorted, and a purple-red mist shrouded it. There seems to be a mountain in the mist.

But no matter how stout the trees can withstand this kind of destruction, after repeated attempts, when Ye Anran fell for the tenth time, the branches finally couldn't bear it, and only heard a snap, and the trunk snapped.

Ye Anran only felt that his feet were empty, and he fell down, and at this moment, a pair of Qianqian thin hands grabbed Ye Anran's wrist and slowly lifted it up.

"Be careful. "I'm sorry. At this time, Zhu Yue gently covered the scars on her face with a layer of veil. But it can't hide the beauty between the eyebrows.

"This forest is very strange, there is a village next to it, we can settle there, and Sylph seems to be overconsumed, and there is no power to condense the entity, are you listening? ”

"I've never seen you so quiet. "Hey, what's wrong with you?" Ye Anran's cheeks were slightly red, sweating profusely, and he was still panting, "There seems to be something wrong with me."

Ye Anran didn't even seem to have the strength to speak, his steps staggered and fell backwards, Zhu Yue saw this, and hurriedly hugged Ye Anran, who was paralyzed, and gently touched his forehead. "Good fever?"

"Girl, listen to my advice, his disease is incurable, and there is no way to save it. Countless people in our village have died from this strange disease. ”

"The mode and route of transmission of this disease is unknown, and after infection, the body will continue to have a fever and fall into a coma. Soon after, it will transform into a monster that eats human flesh and blood. So child, I advise you to give up. ”

"Is there really no way to do it?" "Well, in that case, I'll tell you a story." A true story that happened to the old man. ”

When Ye Anran had a high fever, he was in a daze, and he heard this, and the next day, Ye Anran felt a little better, although he was weak, but at least he could move. He sat up slowly, his eyes looking around, Ye Anran was very scared.

I was afraid that what I heard was true, and I was afraid that Zhu Yue was worried that she would be infected and abandon herself at will.

He didn't want to die yet, at least not yet. There is only one door in a mud house of about 60 square meters. There is sunlight in the cracks of the doors, and there is a set of tables and stools in the middle of the room.

Regardless of whether what I heard at the time was true or not, my current physical condition is very bad. By the way, he also has a six-flavor rehmannia pill that cures all diseases, and his worries may be superfluous, this six-flavor rehmannia pill is a living dead human flesh and bones. A mere plague should be fine.

Thinking of this, Ye Anran hurriedly took it out of the ring and took it. Obviously, the high fever continued one after another, and even Ye Anran couldn't maintain normal reasoning and thinking.

It's hot, I'm so thirsty, I want to drink water. Water, Ye Anran, who turned over the bed, struggled to get the kettle on the table, but his eyes were dark and he fainted again.

Listening to it peacefully, his heart is like water, and there are no waves in the ancient well. Reaching heaven and earth without desire or desire is what you must do when cultivating the water spirit root.

Stay calm whenever and wherever you go, no matter how desperate or angry you are.

Don't be like me, in order to kill others for a while. Don't be reckless, move your little head more, many things can be easily solved. "Pain, pain, don't poke me in the head. I remembered."

"Ye Anran, Ye Anran" opened his confused eyes again, looking at the woman in front of him and seemed to be a little familiar, "Master?" "Take a closer look at me." ”

Ahem, cough, "Zhu Yue?" "Great, you're awake." "It's not too good, can you help me get a bowl of water to drink?"

"I still have a high fever and my head is foggy. It seems that this poison is not so easy to solve. ”

"The water is here, drink it slowly, do you feel better?" "This is an abandoned house, there should be no one around, right?"

"How do you know?" "Don't talk about that yet, help me freeze the whole room." Zhu Yue didn't say anything and nodded, and with a light shout of "seal", the entire earthen house was frozen.

The temperature around him plummeted, which also made Ye Anran calm down a lot. "Much better, my head doesn't hurt so much"

"If you use the outside temperature to forcibly restore your original body temperature, your body will not last long between the internal heat and the external cold. ”

"I know, but what's going on? It's better to be brief. Thank you."

"This is the village of Karn, and one night in the warm wind forest, purple light flashed brightly. The light emitted enveloped the village of Karn outside the forest."

Later, this unknown plague broke out, and for a while, flowers, trees, birds, and beasts were infected with this plague, and a few days before the plague infection, these animals would have a high fever.

After three days, they will become stupid due to the persistent high fever, which burns out their brains, but their body values will return to normal and even become stronger.

I thought that things would be settled, but four days later, these infected people all mutated, and they became flesh-eating monsters, seeking and preying on all living things.

Because of the sudden birth of the vision, the major academies thought that an artifact must be born, and they sent disciples to investigate, but no matter whether it was an elder or a disciple who was not skilled in learning, no one came out alive.

However, the immortals who came to explore the treasure still had some conscience, and expelled all these alienated villagers from the village and drove them into the Warm Wind Forest.

Then, one night, there was a loud noise outside the village, which woke everyone up, and the outermost trees grew wildly twisted and grown. The outermost trees surrounded the cozy forest, without leaking a single gap, and no one has set foot in the territory since.

"The route of transmission is unknown, is it?" "No, the plague does not seem to be contagious, and certain groups of people are exposed to the purple light of the wind forest and become ill. ”

"No, people get this evil disease after coming into contact with each other. Ye Anran smiled bitterly, "Really?"

"Really, if it were contagious, it would be impossible for this village to live. "Thank you"

"What's the matter, it's not like you. "Thank you for being with me, you should be very tired, you can go and rest first." "I'm so much higher than you, how can I feel tired because of trivial things. ”

"Some trivial things in life naturally won't make you feel tired, but you use most of your spiritual power to nourish my body, and now there is not much spiritual power left. Sorry to tire you up. Now you better go back and rest. ”

"But" "Thank you for not lying to me, but this strange poison came too suddenly, since you don't know the way of transmission, it's better to have less contact with me." Please, I don't want people to get hurt because of me. ”

With a creak, the frozen wooden door was slowly opened, and a group of villagers had been waiting for a long time a hundred meters outside the house.

"He must leave the village in seven days!" "Yes, yes, these strangers have no idea how terrible the plague is. "Yes, yes, yes, if you want me to say I should get rid of them now"

"Enough" Zhu Yue shouted angrily, and when her spiritual power exploded, the biting chill stimulated everyone's tense nerves. "When he has a high fever, I will take him away. After speaking, Zhu Yue took out two gold coins from his pocket and threw them out. The money will be used as compensation for you.

Ye Anran, who was leaning on the corner of the wall, although his limbs were weak and unable to move, this could not affect his logical reasoning. "Rehmannia Pill has the effect of the flesh and bones of the living dead, and I have seen its curative effect is indeed amazing, but this time it has not even done it to reduce my fever simply. ”

"Then it only means that what happened to me may not be a strange disease. Like the indelible scar on Zhu Yue's face, it was something akin to a curse. ”

"If so, just find the source of the curse, then I will be saved. Even if I'm wrong, it seems like I have nothing left to lose. Now I just hope that Zhu Yue will never associate this incident with the scar on his face. Even if you guess, don't do something stupid because of it. ”

Under a small tree outside the house, Zhu Yue gently touched the three scratches on her face with her hand, there was no sadness or joy on her face, but her eyes looked firmly at the warm wind forest in the distance.
