On the hills, there are countless wild flowers blooming, although the hills are not high, but the path is tortuous, and Romon suddenly remembered: "Miss Avisie, it seems that we have come full circle, and the other side of the hills, isn't it our territorial forest home?"

"yes, I thought you already knew. Avisy looked at it amusedly.

The "edge forest" where Romon is located, the west is the thorn forest, and the north is this hill, the height is only about 200 meters, over the mountain, is this small village, but if you walk along the road on the plain, you have to walk all day.

"......" Romon was speechless and had to continue down.

The druid's horse was naturally running flat and steady, and the two slowed down and let the horse slowly go down.

Passing through the hills and jungles, both of them were bright-eyed, between the cols, there was a flat land, about 2,000 acres, and a clear stream divided the plain in two.

The farmland was reclaimed, and it was early summer, and the oats and vegetables in the field were very fruitful, and there was a good harvest.

Strangely, when I got closer, I realized that even under the sun, this small mountain village was covered by a kind of fog.

From the path down, the first thing you see is a big tree at the intersection, not far from the scope of this village, those plants and trees, are half-dead, but here is very energetic, especially this big tree, the branches are luxuriant, about seven or eight meters high, it is really rare.

The path, which was close to the entrance to the village, was narrow and potholed, so Romon and Avisy got off their horses and led them along.

"Romon, is this the vanished village?" said Avissie, walking in the direction of the village.

Romon nodded: "From this road, there is indeed only one village in Baron Galle's territory, and this should be the village that disappeared in the story." Now that the village is here, there must be some problems. ”

"Okay, then let's go into the village and have a look, and if there are people, just inquire about the situation in the mountains. Avisy glanced at Romon with a smirk.

For a long time, Luo Meng always couldn't tell Avecy's age, saying that she was five or six years older than Luo Meng, it was also appropriate, but her skin was like snow, and her youth was beneficial, so even if she was one or two years younger than Luo Meng, she said that in the past, now this glimpse of a smile is not a smile, and the style of a charming woman is immediately unmistakable.

Originally, I thought that since I was watching the abundant farmland from a distance, it should be relatively normal, but when they got closer, both of them frowned.

"This village gives me a very uncomfortable feeling, don't you think?" said Avisy as he approached the location of the big tree at the head of the village.

"It seems that there is a kind of death energy that is very strong!" Romon said with a frown, as soon as he approached this village, Romon also had a very uncomfortable feeling, although this village looked no different from the villages and towns they had visited before, but looking at the entrance of the village, it was like a demon's open mouth, as if it was ready to devour the people who fell into it.

What's even more strange is that I was on the hills, and I saw people inside, and the farmland was well cultivated, but when I got closer, the village seemed very quiet, as if it was really a dead village.

Walking on the silent village road, looking at the quiet houses on both sides, a gust of wind blew, and both of them felt a little chill on their bodies.

"Otherwise, let's find a guy and take a look and see if there's really no one inside. Romon and Avisy walked around the village, but they didn't see a single figure, so they proposed.

Avisy nodded: "Good!"

So the two men gently pushed open one of the half-hidden wooden doors and walked in.

"Is there anyone? Excuse me, is there anyone here?" said Avisi's crisp voice, echoing through the courtyard.

No one responded, as if there was no one living here.

The two waited for a while, and when they saw that no one responded, they looked around. This is a very ordinary farmer's house, in the small courtyard, there are a few fruit trees, the fruit on the tree has reached the time of harvest, the red and bright is very lovely, and the yard is very clean, it is obvious that someone is cleaning it.

Seeing this, Avisy had a thoughtful look on her face.

At this time, Romon was already one step ahead of her, pushing the door and entering the house. Avisy then followed.

"Still no one. Romon had just come out of the back room and said to Avisi.

"This village is really weird. Ivy said as she walked to the corner of the room.

There was a table and a few chairs in the outhouse, and there was a strip of bacon hanging on the wall in the corner, and Avisy walked to the side of the bacon, sniffed it gently, and then walked to the table again, picked up the cup on the table, looked at it, and his face became very strange.

"Romong, there were people here just now. Avisy said with a solemn face: "Look, the ground on this table is very clean, there are no fallen leaves in the yard, this glass of water is still warm, and there are still people here just now." ”

"Who?!" Just as Romon was about to respond to Avissy's words, a shadow suddenly flickered in the courtyard, and Romon and Avisy glanced at each other. "Go out and have a look. ”

By the time the two of them came out of the house, there was no one in the courtyard for a long time, and the door that had been half-hidden just now had been wide open.

"Strange, if it's the owner of this household, why is his whereabouts so weird?" Romon looked at the door, feeling strange.

"Wait, listen!" Romon was about to walk outside, when he was suddenly grabbed by Avissie, turned his face to look at her, and saw that the girl was listening intently.

Luo Meng was curious, and listened carefully, the wind, the whirring wind, there was a faint sound of ghosts crying wolves.

"This place, as expected, is quirky. After hearing this, both of them looked solemn.

And at this time, there was a sudden click outside, as if something had been touched and fell to the ground.

As Romon and Avecy walked out, they saw a middle-aged woman walking around the corner in front of them.

"Follow along. As he spoke, Romon went back to the courtyard and led his horse and followed, followed by Avissy.

The speed of the two men was not too fast, and it was a waste of some time to go back and lead the horse, so that by the time they reached the corner, the woman was no longer visible.

The two had to knock on the doors of a few more houses, but there was still no reaction inside, and the doors of more people were locked from the inside, so the two had to look at the door and sigh.

After all, looking at the situation just now, it is not that there are no people in this village, but these people seem to be avoiding them and do not want to communicate with them.

"Let's go, let's go outside and have a look!" Romon was only a third-level druid, and there was no way to investigate on a large scale, so he had to say.

But at this moment, there was a frolicking sound outside, and the two looked over and immediately smiled.

"That's because these children went to play in the wilderness, and now they're back, and the adults can hide, but the children don't know. Romon said proudly, and greeted him, and saw that under the big tree at the head of the village they had just passed, several children were catching some small animals and coming back from outside.

"Where's your parents?" asked Romon as he led the horse to them, smiling.

Seeing the stranger, the children immediately stopped frolicking and looked at each other, and then, an older boy, looked at Romon and asked, "Are you an adult from the town?"

Romon listened to this, and his heart moved, and he still kept a smile on his face: "Who told you this?"

"Ah, grandpa won't let us talk to strangers...... "Suddenly remembered something, the children were about to disperse in a hurry, but Romon was impatient, and said scoldingly: "Stop!"

At this drink, a group of children were suddenly frightened and stayed there one by one.

Romon got up proudly and was about to ask, when in the distance, an old man came over.

"Two adults, I don't know what happened to come to our village?" the old man barely smiled.

"Oh, I'm being sent by Baron Galle to investigate the plant!" Romon is a smart man, so he looked arrogant and condescendingly: "What, you want to disobey the lord and refuse my investigation?"

"No, no, my lords, how dare we...... It's just that recently the village encountered a group of robbers and was robbed of a lot of things, so everyone was scared, and when they saw outsiders, they hid, of course, they didn't mean to avoid the two adults!" The old man waved his hand again and again, squeezing out a smile: "Since it is an adult sent by the two lords, we naturally welcome it, and I will ask them to rise up to greet them." ”

As he spoke, the old man shouted a few times, and after a while, in a place in the distance, a group of villagers appeared hesitantly, including men and women, old and young, and Luo Meng noticed that there were about forty young adults, all of whom looked at them vigilantly.

From the druid's senses, Romon sensed fear and hostility.

"Who are you?" Luo Meng was not afraid at this time, his spiritual eyes swept over, there were basically no warriors who could pose a threat to him here, and among the forty men, there were dots, and about five or six of them had the strength of the first and second grades, which was not enough to fear.

"I am Sandas, the chief of the village here, two adults, please come to my house to entertain you. ”

"No!" Romon waved his hand, there was food on his horses, not to mention the space, "We just wanted to ask, your village is the closest to the valley, have you noticed anything strange in the recent period?"

The old man said, "No, except for the last time I met a group of robbers, nothing strange has happened recently!"

"Oh, then go!" Romon waved him away.

At first, Romon thought that he was oppressed by the lord, but when he heard that it was someone from the town, he was scared like this, and there were villages on the earth that were afraid of officials, so he was not so strange.

But now, she no longer thinks so, because on the way, Miss Avisy told him that when she left Jumu Town, she had quietly asked the people of the town, and it turned out that the owner of the inn in the town had been from this village, and then she thought about all the strange behavior of the innkeeper and all the suspicious things about this village, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this village must have something to do with the problem of plants.

Thinking of this, the two made eye contact in the sun, and a green light appeared on both of them, which was very thin, but very obvious.

"Nature Detection!"

As soon as this situation appeared, the people in the village suddenly twitched, and the old man immediately stopped the twitching, and looked at it from a distance, showing worry.

"Negative energy seeps out from the earth, but it's really thickest here in the valley!" Romon said.

"Although the smell of death is the strongest, the native plants are the least affected, and it seems that there is a conscious avoidance of some ......," Miss Avisy said a little deeper.

In fact, as early as when he was inspecting other places, Luo Meng had already used the power of the druids, and then found that a faint breath of negative energy seeped out from the earth, stretching for hundreds of miles.

However, the negative energy breath is originally a part of nature, so the source of this breath cannot be found, and the two of them will continue to find it according to the decay of the plant.

Finally, in this small village adjacent to the valley, they found an even stronger breath of death. What's even more weird is that although the breath of death here is the strongest, the growth of plants here doesn't seem to have been affected.

This kind of result is something that neither Romon nor Avisy will believe.

"There's a problem with this village, but it's true that the source isn't here, let's follow it first!" Romon frowned and said.

"Okay, let's go!" Seeing that Komura had gained nothing, the two men decided to follow the breath of death and continue to go deeper to see if they could find any new clues.

"Do you have a way forward?" Romon asked, seeing that Avisy was looking at the map.

Avisy shook his head: "There is no mark on the map, however, there is no record on the map, it does not mean that there is no road in reality, when you checked just now, which direction is the death aura stronger?"

"This way. Romon pointed to the depths of the village, that is, to the other side of the valley. "I saw that the deeper I went, the stronger the aura of death became. ”

"That's right, the source of the breath of death should be over there, since we all suspect that this breath of death is the source of the decay and death of plants, then let's go into the mountains and take a look. ”

Avisy put away the map, which was of no use to them for the time being, because the extent of the territory map was up to this village, and as they went, the valley was no longer recorded on the map.

Neither of them was going to rest in the village, this time leading the horse to the village, the people were no longer closed as they had just now, and some people had already begun to come out to move, but looking at the eyes of the two, it was obvious that they were afraid and had a hint of hostility.

The way they looked at Romon and the others was very similar to what the innkeeper in the town looked at them, and Romon remembered what Avecy had just analyzed for himself, and felt more and more reasonable.

This time, they didn't take the initiative to ask for anything, and the villagers didn't seem to want to have any contact with them, and occasionally a few people gathered together to talk, and their vigilant eyes were always watching.

Not to mention the druids, even ordinary people can feel this unwelcoming atmosphere!
