After leaving the cursed capital, Fei Yue and his party began to go all the way north, the European and African Federation is already mountainous terrain, and there is a rare plain in the capital, and most of the other areas are covered by trees, coupled with the high-pressure rule and exploitation of the upper echelons of the European and African Federation, resulting in frequent bandits in various places, but there is some relief after the demon occupation, but Fei Yue firmly believes that this can only mean that things are worse than before.

At about noon, the plain had come to an end, and in front of them was a long mountain range, and before entering the mountains, the group also saw a village, which was not far from the capital, but the village had not developed at all, just a simple and ordinary village.

The group walked into the village, and the villagers were a little wary of strangers, in the eyes of Fei Yue and his party, it was likely to be caused by the demon's behavior, of course, it is not excluded that the village itself is not very welcoming to strangers, after all, there are many bandits now, and no one knows whether these strangers who suddenly arrived are the spies or spies of the bandits, so that almost everything in the village is not open to Fei Yue and his party.

"Welcome, stranger!" said an old man behind the three of them as Fei Yue and his party were about to leave the village, although there was not so much vigilance in his tone, but there was also a little fear, this old man should be the head of this village.

"Old man, we're just passing through here, you don't have to worry too much!" Fei Yue turned to the village chief and smiled, "But I wonder why this place is only about a day's walk from the capital, why has it remained the way it is now?"

"Little girl, you don't know anything!" The village chief introduced Fei Yue and his party into his house, and lit dry firewood, it was now the time for lunch, and the old man was going to entertain Fei Yue and his party to have lunch here before leaving.

With Earl's help to light the fire and start preparing the vegetables, the old man continued what he had just said, "This village is called Shadowless Village, and the mountains behind the village are called Shadowless Mountains, and from here, there is no place for human habitation, and all the people who enter this mountain range have never appeared again in the end, and the Shadowless Mountain Range is so named, as long as the people who enter, they will disappear without a trace!"

At this time, Hotaru stepped forward to help the old man cut vegetables, and took out some food such as cured meat and bread by the way, and helped the old man to return to Feiyue and sit down, so that the old man could chat with Feiyue with peace of mind, after all, the old man was old, and he was talking while moving the knife, and it was difficult to say whether he would cut his fingers, which was not what the group wanted.

And it's not just Hotaru, Feiyue and Earl have found out, that is, the barrenness of this village, although some vegetables and grains are planted around, but I'm afraid it's only enough to fill their stomachs, leaning on the mountain, but they can't go into the mountains to hunt, so that they can only rely on these foods to survive in winter, and now that the group has arrived, when they see their own line of bright and luxurious clothes, I'm afraid they can also take out the best food they can come up with.

Hotaru and the old man rushed to cook, so they also moved some thoughts, although it can't help much, but at least everyone doesn't have to starve this winter, at the same time, Hotaru also left some seeds under the instruction of Feiyue, these seeds are deliberately processed by Feiyue, and may not guarantee a good yield, but there should be no big problem in recent years.

"Then old man, do you know what is in this shadowless mountain range? We have a friend who disappeared after entering this mountain range on a mission, just like the people you mentioned, and we also followed the footsteps of our friends!" Fei Yue said to the old man, her tone was as soft and soothing as before, like a fresh breeze, coupled with her beautiful appearance, the old man soon stopped being afraid of Fei Yue, but his fear of Earl who looked at him like food from the side deepened.

"Listen to my old fellow, don't go in again, there are too many people who have disappeared in it, but none of them have been able to come back, according to the teachings of the ancestors, there is a god living there, and this god is different from all the gods we know, does not eat the fireworks of the world, any sacrifice has no effect, and especially likes to play tricks on people, it is said that those who go in are not killed, but thrown into some kind of labyrinth abyss by that god, and when they are hungry, they will give some food, but they will never get out, until they die of old age-" The old man slowly told Fei Yue the story he had heard, it was still the story passed on to him by his elders when he was a child, and now seeing that Fei Yue and his party were so young, he also tried to persuade Fei Yue and his party not to approach that dangerous place.

"If no one comes out, then who is talking to the old man about these things?" Fei Yue smiled faintly, "Old man, don't worry, we are not ordinary people, we will not be caught by that god, on the contrary, we have to catch that god, so that there will be travelers to come to this village, and you don't have to be so poor and hard anymore!"

As soon as he heard Fei Yue say this, the old man's face immediately sank, "Little girl, you are still young, there are some things you may not have seen clearly, I have also gone out in the past, standing on the peak that many people can't climb, but in the end, I still come back here, this village that has no quarrel with the world, this village that no one cares about, this is a good place, a good place to make people's hearts peaceful, as long as there is a hare, you can be happy for a while, this is money and power can't be exchanged!" As he spoke, the smell of fireflies wafted into the room, and the old man pursed his lips, "Ahhhhhh

Then, the old man staggered up from the chair, he walked to the door, and called a few names that Feiyue didn't know, Feiyue knew that this should be the name of the children in the village, because Feiyue had been called like this in the past, but some people, like the old man, he could still give up and return to this world without fighting for the rest of his life, and he could only go all the way forward, and he could no longer retreat, even if he wanted to retreat, he couldn't retreat.

With children, there will be excitement, and the residents of the village will follow after the children arrive, and Hotaru may have thought of this step, so he made a lot of dishes, although he couldn't get fresh meat, but Fei Yue is the queen of a country after all, even the jerky is very delicious, not to mention Hotaru's special cooking.

Whatever was supposed to be a family's lunch suddenly became a whole village dinner, with chairs brought from their homes and placed cauldrons in a small square in the center of the village, where everyone gathered in a circle, chatting and laughing, and eating the delicious meal while the children played.

It was a wonderful and unforgettable time, even Earl, who had little contact with humans, played with the children for a while, and when Feiyue and his party left, the villagers also enthusiastically saw off Feiyue and his party, and took the last opportunity to warn Feiyue and his party, so that they should be careful to avoid possible traps, and it is best not to enter the mountains, and when they found that Feiyue and his party were indeed heading towards the mountains, everyone also bowed their heads and sighed.

Perhaps for a long time in the future, Feiyue and her party will be a topic of conversation for them, once there was a beautiful woman like a goddess who came here, and did not mind her own vigilance and indifference, and brought a sumptuous meal for herself, and in the end, where did they go? Naturally, they returned to the embrace of the goddess, because they were the messengers sent by the goddess, and if they did not return to the arms of the goddess, where could they go?

Fei Yue and his entourage, who left the village, were silent, and the simple villagers made the three of them have some subtle feelings, among which the most touching is probably Earl, from the appearance of Earl who wants to speak and stops, I am afraid that there are even greater doubts, and it is a doubt that makes Earl difficult to decide.

"Mother, these villagers are different from the humans I've seen in the past!" Earl finally decided to voice his doubts, "I've never seen a human with such a pure soul, so pure that any emotion can be seen without soul perspective. ”

"Have you forgotten what I told you before?" replied with a smile, "Humans have always been like this, it's just that sometimes they forget something that needs to be remembered, and something that needs to be forgotten!"

"Yes, yes, or is it that most of Earl's contacts are with the military, the nobility, and very little with the common people?" Hotaru said after Fei Yue, "Do you think that everyone cares about the same things?

"Is it wrong to just stare at food? I've been imprisoned for hundreds of thousands of years, and no one has ever sent me food during that time, so if it were you, I'm afraid even the dense forest would be eaten by you, right?" Earl's face immediately turned gloomy when he heard Hotaru's taunt, but he didn't seem to intend to continue arguing with Hotaru, but turned his gaze to Fei Yue, who was thinking about it, "Mother, you have been here since the birth of this world, are we the same as these humans in the past?"

"It's the same!" Fei Yue replied without thinking, "the world was still in chaos when I arrived, it was Enlil who first saw me, and Enlil's people, I just picked up a clear spring, and the whole tribe cheered, even if everything was not born at that time, and I still had to face the danger of giants!"

"A clear spring, what's the difference between that and this meal!" Earl laughed. It's funny, it's the funniest story I've ever heard, but it's also the most touching story I've ever heard, from the time I was born, I was asked to chase everything, and the whipping never stopped, until I was locked up at the bottom of the lake, chained to my wings, and I was able to calm down and meditate, and I think I should be thankful for fate, it was fate that made me meet you, otherwise I might have returned to my parents, to Élish's throne, and to continue the blind life I used to have, just like the men in the capital, without a mind or a soul, but acting on simple commands, to love, to hate, to plunder, to chase――”
