Chapter Seventy-Four: Xiao Wan's Tragic Past
I was stunned when I suddenly heard a faint voice in the darkness behind me: "Childe has seen enough?" β
My back was cold, and in an instant, my brain felt like it had been struck by lightning, and my whole body was numb.
You don't have to look back to know that it's a woman who is talking, and it's a young woman, how can there be people in this time, this place? You can figure out what the other person is with your fingers.
I took a deep breath and slowly turned around.
A dozen girls in skirts stood about ten meters behind me, all staring at me with curious eyes.
"You are ......"
I subconsciously shouted these words, and I could already guess that they were those hundred-year-old souls at the beginning.
"Who is Childe? How did it end up here! β
The woman at the head looked twenty-five or sixteen years old, although there was no blood on her face, but her handsome facial features and graceful figure could not be concealed.
"I'm looking for someone!"
Gritting my teeth, I replied dryly.
"You can't come to us, will you?" I didn't see who was talking this time.
"That's right! I think...... I want to save you! β
"Save us?" The woman in the lead smiled coldly, "Do you know who we are? Know what we've all been through? Know what we want to do right now? He was not ashamed. β
That's what really stopped me.
I shook my head: "I don't know! But I know you've been confined here, and you've been here for more than 100 years, and you definitely want to get out! β
These words seem to speak to the hearts of several people.
They looked at each other for a moment, then they all turned to look at me.
"You...... You say you can get us out? β
I nodded.
"I'm here to save you, and I can help you get where you need to go!"
"Where?" The woman's voice trembled slightly.
"Dust to dust, dust to earth, this is no longer your world, you should have set foot on the Huangquan Road a long time ago, and then enter the three reincarnations, and reincarnate as a human."
More than a dozen of them were expressionless, but I could tell the excitement in the subtle changes in their expressions.
"We really want to go out, we have been looking forward to it for more than a hundred years, but we hate it even more, we hate those who hurt us, and now our greatest desire is to seek revenge on them - we want revenge!"
As soon as I heard this, I realized that there must be a very tragic story about these dozen girls dying in such a place.
"If you want, can you tell me what happened to you? I can't promise 100% that I will be able to help you, but I will do my bestβto the best of my ability. "I think I'm being sincere.
The woman in charge stared at me for more than a minute before she said coldly: "It's been a hundred years!" We have been trapped in this cold well for more than a hundred years, and now we have only two wishes, one is to get out of here, but to take revenge, and nothing else matters. β
I nodded, and by this point I had calmed down.
"But now more than a hundred years have passed, and those who harmed you have long since died, how can you take revenge?"
As soon as I finished saying this, the air around me suddenly became very cold, and I couldn't help but shrink my neck, this scene was similar to the previous experience under Wang Manyu's villa, and I knew that the female ghosts were angry.
"Although they are dead, their children and grandchildren are still there, and the father's debts are repaid, isn't this also deserved!"
"But...... But a hundred years have passed, and who knows where to look for them? β
The woman at the head smiled coldly: "Although a hundred years have passed, I still remember the smell of several of us, some of the smells are innate, and I think their children and grandchildren should also have them." β
Another ghost in the female ghost group added: "Sister Xiaowan is born with a good nose, she can smell smells that normal people can't smell, and her memory of smells is also incomparable to ordinary people. β
My brain was spinning rapidly, and it seemed that I could only promise them first, and as for whether I could take revenge, and how to take revenge, I could only take one step at a time.
"Good! I promise to do my best to help you as long as it is a reasonable request. β
The cold around me gradually subsided, and the girl named Xiaowan hooked her hand at me: "Then you come with me!" β
They turned and walked behind them, and I followed.
Strangely, there was no light around at this time, but I could see each of them clearly.
How to put it, this is like another world, where everything is different from ours and cannot be understood by common sense.
Standing behind them, look carefully, there are a total of twelve of them, it looks like Xiaowan is the oldest, two look thirteen or fourteen years old, and the others all look like they are in their twenties, I don't know if it is caused by the environment here, or they are actually ghosts, it seems that everyone's figure is graceful, including two thirteen or fourteen years old, they are also exquisite.
After walking about a hundred meters, the scene in front of me changed again.
There is a bed, a table and chairs, and a large dresser, much like a woman's boudoir.
"You can sit down as you like!"
Xiao Wan said softly and pointed to the side.
In fact, there are only two stone benches, and the so-called casual sitting actually does not have much choice.
"We have been trapped underground for more than a hundred years, and Childe is the first to come below, which can be regarded as a blessing for our sisters!"
I couldn't answer that, and it sounded as if the twelve of them were about to eat me, so I smiled awkwardly.
"We were originally a folk music troupe in Datong, Shanxi, these are the programs in the troupe, that day for the birthday of the lord of a large family in Shandong, invited us to the house to perform the program, if you take the boat, it will be a two-day trip, our mother of the group owner sees a lot of pay, so she sent me to take the other eleven sisters to set off......"
When the day of departure, the sky was still clear, and it was time to go far away, and the twelve sisters were naturally very happy, they sat on the boat scattered, chatting and knocking melon seeds, enjoying the scenery on both sides of the strait very comfortably, and the laughter aroused the coveting of many fishermen and farmers on both sides of the strait.
is in response to that sentence: God is a child's face, and he changes when he says it.
When it was less than half a day's journey from the big family, it suddenly rained heavily, and there happened to be a small village nearby, and the river was a wharf, so Xiaowan and the others decided to go ashore to avoid the rain, anyway, there was plenty of time.
So far, Xiaowan remembers very clearly, this village is called Hewazi Village, there are not many villagers, most of them make a living from fishing, it seems that the villagers are the same as the name of this village, from the inside to the outside are full of simplicity.
The villagers boiled fish soup for Xiaowan and them, using freshly caught live crucian carp and preparing grain and wine.
Xiaowan and the others repeatedly shirked, but in the end they were persuaded to drink some wine.
After a while, Xiao Wan's mind sank a little, and then she looked at the other sisters, some of them were staggering, and some of them were already lying motionless on the table.
Xiao Wan secretly said that it was not good, and wanted to stand up, but after two attempts, her consciousness gradually disappeared.
