Chapter 17: Outside the Gates of the Grey World

At this time, Hulai's hands have completely turned into white bones, and if you turn up his sleeves, you can find that his arms are also turning into white bones little by little.

All the flesh and blood disappeared out of thin air!

Don Quixote stared at the abnormalities on Hulai's body seriously, and swallowed his saliva involuntarily, at this time, Hulai's entire cheeks had begun to slowly fade off flesh and blood.

As for the black skeleton emperor, he used the two deep holes on his skull to look at Hu Lai's appearance intently: "The young emperor who is worthy of this emperor can eat so much mental power... Hope I didn't feel wrong... He's the one Bendi is waiting for..."

Hulai's brain was blank at this point, and as he ate more and more food, there was less and less flesh on his body.

After a while, he fell to the table with a "poof".

The Emperor's body made a series of bones resounding, and slowly walked towards the pale skeleton that Hu Lai had turned into at this time.

In the middle of Hulai's skull, there is an extremely strange mark, which is round and somewhat like the sun, which looks intricate.

Pale, blood, and ink, interlaced to form this extremely complex mark.

After seeing this mark, the emperor immediately danced with his hands: "Sure enough, it is the young emperor of this emperor! Sure enough, it is him! It has been more than 4,000 years! He has been waiting for more than 4,000 years! It is him!"

There was also a hint of excitement in Don Quixote's eyes, which swept away the seriousness on his face.

The black skeleton stopped all sorts of strange movements, and he raised a swarthy, shiny bony hand and lightly touched the mark in the middle of Hulai's forehead.

A breath as black as ink suddenly drilled out from the emperor's bone fingers.

"Let Bendi come and see your wish......"

The sky was covered with dark clouds, and the rain was pouring down, hitting the leaves and making a crackling sound.

In the dim and somewhat gray shijie, footsteps sounded softly from the forest.

It was an extremely feminine-looking, emaciated woman, with brown hair and turquoise eyes, who looked extremely charming.

At this time, her hair was all wet, and beside her, there was a little girl wearing a long robe, this little girl looked only five or six years old, and the wide black robe made her whole person only show one face.

The little girl raised her little hand and pulled the soft woman who had been wet with the rain: "Mother... I don't want to wear this big robe......"

The soft-looking woman lowered her head and touched the girl's golden hair with a somewhat pale and slender hand: "Well, mother knows what you are thinking, but if you get sick in the rain, mother will also feel distressed." ”

"But... But Brother Hulai said that his mother's health was not good, and he had to pay attention to it. The little girl hurriedly spoke, her voice crisp and extremely nice.

The soft woman showed a wry smile, her tall body was outlined by the rain at this time, and when she saw the little girl constantly asking, she shrugged her shoulders: "Then will I carry you on my back?"

"Okay, yes, so that my mother can wear a big robe with me, and I won't have to get in the rain. The little girl's voice suddenly became cheerful.

The feminine woman gently squatted down and carried the little girl on her back. Such an action made her can't help but let out two low coughing sounds: "Ahem..."

Seeing that her mother's cheeks were pale, the little girl hurriedly propped up her big robe to cover the dense rain that kept falling in the sky: "Mother, Brother Hulai Weishenme is going to go behind, why doesn't he come with us?"

The soft woman's footsteps paused obviously, but she immediately covered up her expression: "Your brother Hulai has something to take, so you have to walk slowly." ”

"I see!"

In the distance, the sound of low conversation, through the rain, came into the ears of the handsome young man hidden behind the big tree, and only the sound of snapping remained.

He looked to be about eleven or twelve years old, with short jet-black hair, and his dark eyes were slightly hollow and swept behind him from time to time.

On the palm of one of the hands he touched the tree was a dagger that looked extremely wide.

"Bang, bang, bang!"

Footsteps stepped in the rain, and the sound of splashing sounded in the distance.

The boy held his breath lightly and leaned down, but his hand holding the dagger trembled slightly.

"Young master, we've been chasing for a day, from Blue Town to Jonestown, they are likely to have entered Jonestown, which is not under the jurisdiction of our family. A voice of exhortation suddenly sounded in the rain.

"Hmph, that sick woman doesn't have such fast foot strength at all, and she still has two oil bottles by her side, how can she walk so fast?"

The voice of the person who had been admonished before obviously paused, and after a while, the voice made a voice that was flattering: "The young master's mind is delicate, and he can guess it at once, and he really deserves to be the most noble young master in Blue Town." ”

"Mother and daughter... I really want to taste what it's like......"

At this moment, the young man hiding behind the tree had already seen the figures of the two people clearly, but the rain kept falling, wetting his eyes and making the two figures in front of him a little blurred.

After hearing Zuihou's conversation, the young man's trembling hands suddenly stopped trembling.

A look of anger crossed his face.

When the two figures approached the tree he was on, he crept out from behind the tree and approached the two figures little by little.

As for the dagger in his hand, it was washed by the rain, emitting an extremely cold cold light.

At this moment, a voice of surprise suddenly sounded from in front of the young man: "Look! Young Master Ben said that their foot strength is not enough, and it is not enough to escape to Jonestown!"

"It's true! I've seen the mother and daughter, but what about the other oil bottle?"

"Whatever, are you interested in boys?" said a strange laugh.

The young man's eyes were mixed with anger and fear, and he wanted to run up and kill the hateful noble young master with the dagger in his hand, but he had never killed anyone, and he didn't dare to do it.

"Wait!" The noble young master's voice suddenly sounded, and with this voice, the two figures in front of him suddenly stopped.

"What's the matter, young master?" the entourage beside the noble young master hurriedly asked.

The noble young master turned his head and said, "I feel that someone is following us..."

The entourage next to him hurriedly turned his head and searched carefully.

"Knock! knock!" the sound of a knock on the city gate sounded slowly.

With an extremely pale hand, the soft woman kept clapping the gates of the town with her hands.

A shouting voice suddenly sounded from the wall above the city gate: "Get out! The gates of Jonestown are closed!

The soft woman quickly raised her head, she looked at the top of the city wall with her turquoise eyes, although she couldn't see the other party, but she still begged: "Please! Help me open the city gate! I need help!"

"Hey, every day there are people like you say, don't they just want to live in the town? I've seen a lot of people like this, so if you get acquainted, hurry up and get out, and let the nobles know that maybe they'll lose their lives!"

The soft woman did not give up, and she continued to plead: "Brother Guard, I have two children, even if you don't let me in, let them in, okay?" Please, I believe you must be a kind person. ”

"Get out of the way! It's all said to get out of here! The gates of Jonestown don't just open when you say they're open! If you make another noise like this, our machine gunners will shoot you!" The voice of warning sounded coldly, making the soft woman's originally pale and emaciated face even more emaciated.

Her pupils lost their luster and she looked a little desperate.

The little girl behind her also had tears in her eyes, mixed with rain, which made people a little confused: "Uncle Guard, please let my mother and Brother Hulai and me go in!"

The crisp voice was extremely pleasant, and the guards on the city wall seemed to be a little unbearable: "The gates of Jonestown are closed on time every day, and they need to be checked before they can let people in." If you must enter Jonestown, wait until tomorrow the people in charge of the identification line will come. ”

Tomorrow?

The pupils of the soft woman shrank slightly, she turned her head to look into the distance, the scene in the rain was not too clear, but the figures of the two people could still be easily found.

She bit her pale lower lip, gently put the little girl behind her on the ground, then touched the little girl's head, and said softly: "Wait here for Mother and Brother Hulai to come back, do you know?"

The little girl also seemed to see two figures in the distance, and she took two steps back in great fear, and fell into the puddle with a pop.

However, she hurriedly wiped her eyes with the sleeve of her black robe and hummed heavily: "Hmm!"

The crisp voice fell, and the thin and feminine woman suddenly began to run frantically behind her, and at this moment she was in a very worried mood, and the young man named Hulai, her son, told her to go back and get something, but she never followed.

Now the two men who forced them to leave the town of Blue, where they lived, had already arrived here.

Worry turned into liliang, and her pace couldn't help but speed up.

The sound of unconcealed footsteps suddenly sounded, making the two noble young masters and their entourage who had been looking back for someone quickly turn their heads.

The aristocratic young master's eyes lit up slightly, and every move of the soft woman was a kind of temptation for him: "Look! Look! She has sent her to the door!"

"Haha, you go and catch that little one, I'll deal with this!" the noble young master hurriedly ordered.

The entourage next to him smiled flatteringly and ran towards the little girl standing under the city gate.

At this time, the young man hiding behind the big tree, his eyes were already full of tears, and he began to regret that if he hadn't hesitated just now and attacked immediately, he would probably be able to kill the noble young master, so that even if the entourage beside him was captured, or killed himself, then there would be no regrets.
