This must be sick, all the people of the city.

The old woman remembered that before that day it was all right, and the town of Silk was still as simple and beautiful as people had passed it on, and the people in the town would smile when they met each other, and the rich would give the harvest to the poor every day.

There is always a lot of catch in the fishing nets.

And the town is always full of life...... But from that day on, everything changed.

I don't know why there were so many crows in the town that people couldn't sleep at night, and it was winter, and people thought that there was a disaster elsewhere, so they migrated in large numbers.

Except for the crows, everything is normal except that it is noisy at night, but the tranquility does not last for a few days, and gradually people always hear certain sounds in their sleep, such as soldiers running on horses on the streets, but there are no soldiers on horseback patrols in Xiushui Town at night.

The people began to react to the mayor, who in turn reacted to the priests in the city.

............

"And what was the result?"

The old woman told about what happened to Silk Town a year ago, but when she got here, she didn't say anything more, and everyone couldn't help but ask.

She stood up, her rickety body was only the height of an adult man's chest, which was very short, about one meter five or less, but it was normal for such an elderly person to shrink.

Wang Chu looked at her face, the face under the hood was wrinkled badly, and the skin was already loose.

This woman must have been a big-nosed girl when she was young, because when she was old, the bones of her nose were still there, but the flesh had completely shrunk, and if she was a little sharper, she would look like the witches in her own impression of fairy tales.

"Later...... Later, people got a strange disease, they couldn't go out, and they couldn't see people, whether it was the old man or the children, they didn't dare to show their true faces, people began to run out in large numbers, all the people who could run, but they didn't have extra strength, they were very tired every day and could only wander in the town, there were fewer and fewer things to eat, and then the stinky fish in the river could also be eaten, and the merchants who originally came to and from Xiushui Town didn't dare to come again after seeing this, they said that Xiushui Town had the plague and couldn't go anymore. The old woman continued.

"But what the businessmen have seen, why don't they ask for help from outside, and other countries, they will also come to help." The private said hurriedly.

Xiushui Town is a water town standing in the river basin, he originally belonged to a certain country, but slowly because of the geographical relationship and independence, it is considered a neutral town. Of course, Wang Chu didn't care about these intricate political relationships.

Just watched as the old woman slowly raised her head and pulled her hood slightly away with her hand.

Half of her face appeared in front of everyone, her pale face was even a little green, and her wrinkled skin made people think that this old woman would not be strange even if she was buried tomorrow, she was already terminally ill, and there was something like a red cloud-like blood clot on her neck, which looked like a corpse spot??

I just looked up for a moment, and then lowered it again.

"How did you become like this, and did this disease cause you any pain. ”

"There's nothing else but being able to make people like this, and a year ago I was just in my thirties...... And the man at the door was still a sturdy young man. ”

The old woman's words shocked everyone present that the body of a woman in her thirties had become like this.

It's only been a year, and life seems to have gone through fifty or sixty years!

"Maybe my magic can restore you to your original state. Benedictas' magic wand lit up with a faint light.

"The Holy Light, the Holy Light can't save the city, it will only bring us pain like other priests, the priests of the town have always promised to save us when they are still there, but until they die, or run away, it doesn't come true, the center of the town is the church, there are many such things under the statues, as long as you bring it, you will feel better, the Holy Light can't save us, only yourself can save us. ”

"Hurry up, stranger, don't stay here. ”

The old woman and the child slowly went back into the alleyway, and the child almost didn't say a word in the process, except for the moment when he was sick, and the rest of the time he was like a walking corpse.

"Archbishop......" Paladin Akara glanced at Benedictas.

"The city may be in trouble, they may be cursed in some way, because Silk Town is not part of any country and therefore has no support, and this kind of city can easily become a sojourn for conspirators, let's go and see near the church. ”

The group nodded and continued down the street.

On the way, Wang Chu kept thinking about the story that the old woman had just said.

"Great Teacher, what's wrong with you? Sometimes Wang Chu wonders if An Wenna is always focusing on herself, and she feels that no movement can escape her eyes.

Lias probably noticed herself, too, and asked the same question.

"Cam, what are you thinking?"

What you want is not what the other party said just now.

A young man has become an old man in just one year, and Wang Chu has seen similar magic, also a year ago......

I still remember the last battle in Hajar City, the Headless Horseman seems to have used this kind of magic that deprives others of their vitality, although the process and method are different, but the result is the same, they all deprive people of their vitality, only this time the people are not dead, and they are afraid of the Holy Light.

Could it be that this time it is them, too.

The Death Knight is here again?

The old woman said that the people in the town would hear the sound of horses running on the streets at night, Wang Chu looked at the dirty and messy streets around him, how to ride horses in such a place, and the narrow streets were full of garbage and other things, and the horses probably would not walk in such a place, let alone run.

Unless they all heard it wrong, or it was ...... That's not a normal horse at all.

There is only one main road in the city, and along it is the so-called church, in fact, the domed buildings can be seen from a long distance, and the churches in any city are built luxuriously.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and the place where the eye could see was not far away, and it was as dark as entering a closed demon cave.

Churches without the Holy Light shine.

The square was as unorganized as the streets of the previous years, and the most striking thing was that in the center of it was a statue of some kind made of sackcloth and twigs and bones.

There are hundreds of candles lit underneath, and there are many small wooden carvings in the middle.

It was not clear in the old woman's hand before, but now Wang Chu saw it, and it was engraved with intricate carvings that glittered in the dark.

"This is the altar, and sure enough, someone did it on purpose. "The archbishop understood what it was at first sight.
