Chapter Fifty-Nine: The Child in the Temple of the City God

[You continue to move forward, and at this moment, another thigh is thrown out, and it is smashing against the skull, and you decide:]

【Moving on】

【……】

……

Just throwing bones?

It seems that what is hidden behind the idol is really just trying to scare him away, otherwise it wouldn't just throw bones.

But...... Does throwing a bone really scare people away?

Chu Ge continued to walk forward.

[You continue to move forward, and then you finally see that hidden behind the idol is a dirty child, he is dressed in tatters, his hair is sloppy, his face has not been washed for some reason, it is dark, only a pair of big eyes are still clear, but his eyes seem to be a little erratic. 】

[And the moment I saw you, you saw that the child suddenly looked frightened, holding his head in his hands, curled up together, and shouted:]

["Don't hit me, don't hit me! ”】

[Seeing him in such a situation, you decide:]

[Comfort him]

[Whatever it is]

[Hit him]

[Others]

Looking at the description of the child on the screen, Chu Ge couldn't help frowning.

His eyes are erratic, and when he sees someone, he shouts not to beat himself...... Is there something wrong with the brain?

Without thinking too much, Chu Ge chose to comfort him.

[You comfort him and say that you are not a bad person and will not hit him, but he just keeps holding his head and ignores you. 】

[After a long time, maybe he was tired of shouting, or maybe you didn't hit him, he finally stopped shouting, and then his big eyes looked at you through the gap between his hands, and after seeing that you didn't move, he put down his hand. 】

[You ask him who he is and where he is from, he stares at you for a long time, and suddenly he laughs and laughs:]

"You have ears, you have ears, you are like me! ”】

[Listen to him, and then you notice that both of his ears are there, unlike those in the Earless Village, so you ask him why he said that, and he continues, but what he says seems to be a bit wrong with your question, and you hear him say. 】

"Protect your ears from being eaten."] ”】

What does it mean to protect your ears from being eaten?

Could it be that the ears of the people in the Earless Village have been eaten?

[You want to continue asking, but then a white shadow suddenly jumps in front of you, and you see the small white mink with one ear that you saw in the cave grinning at you, and it is standing in front of the child, trying to make a threatening appearance, even though its legs are still shaking. 】

But then the white mink is being held by the child, and you hear the child touching the white mink's head and saying to it:]

["Little mink, it's okay, he has ears, he's not a bad guy. ”】

[Looking at the way they snuggle up to each other, you decide:]

[Attack Them]

[Ask them]

【Temporarily unmoving】

[Others]

Looking at the text description, Chu Ge felt that he should give them a little space, so he chose not to move for the time being.

[You quietly look at the child and the white mink, and do not disturb them, and after a while, they finally notice you again, the child tilts his head to look at you, suddenly pulls out a rib from under him, and hands it to you with a smile. 】

["Here you go, play together? ”】

[You decide:]

【Take it over】

[Refusal]

[Others]

Why are there human bones in the City God Temple?

Chu Ge hesitated for a moment, but still chose to take it.

After all, judging from the current performance, this kid doesn't look like a bad person.

You take the bone, and then you touch the child's hand, and the child's hand is a little cold, and you feel a little strange, because he looks normal, he doesn't look sick, and the weather is not very cold in the current season. 】

Got cold hands?

Chu Ge raised his eyebrows slightly, remembering this, and then he continued to look down.

"Come, let, together, play."] ”】

[You hear the child say, and then you squat down and watch the child play, but you just look at him, and from time to time you should make peace, and the white mink leans next to the child, looking at you vigilantly. 】

You didn't care, but kept looking at the child. 】

"The boy seems to be playing with the house, and you see him forming a circle with bones, and then putting a bunch of stones in the circle, pointing to the stones and saying that he is a bad person without ears. 】

A circle, a bad guy without ears?

Does this refer to the Earless Village?

Then the child took out four more stones and placed them outside the circle, and he smiled and pointed at you, and he and the white mink, and you still saw it, and finally he pointed to the idol. 】

Idol?

Is the city god still there?

[The child takes out the largest piece of the pile of stones from the circle and circles around the four stones outside, but does not come closer, but keeps a fixed distance.] 】

[Then you can't understand the child's movements, he is messing with bones and stones, doing things that don't seem to make sense.] 】

[Finally, he threw the biggest stone to the side, and with a click, you see, the bones were scattered all over the ground, and then he laughed, and hid in the corner with the white mink, and ignored you again.] 】

Is the kid trying to tell himself something?

Does the largest stone refer to the tallest or strongest person in the Earless Village?

Just killing him will solve the problem of the whole village?

Chu Ge looked at the text description and fell into thought.

Perhaps, I should find a chance to touch the earless village and have a look.

Thinking about this, he decided to take a stroll around the City God Temple first to see if there was anything else he had missed.

However, after some observation, nothing was found except for some dried fruits, and the child's questioning of Chu Ge was only Aba Aba, so Chu Ge left the City God Temple.

[You left the City God Temple, and there were two roads in front of you at this time, thinking back to the memory of the time, you still remember, one on the left leads to the Earless Village, and the other on the right leads to the unknown wasteland, you decide:]

【Go left】

【Go to the right】

[Others]

Chu Ge needed to go to the Earless Village to investigate, so he decided to go to the left.

[You walked in the direction of Earless Village, all the way desolate, after turning a few corners, there were no plants to cover you, you saw Earless Village, at this time you decided:]

【Keep Walking】

【In-situ observation】

[Others]

Chu Ge chose to observe in situ.

[You hide among the plants and observe the earless village in the distance, and you see some villagers chatting and walking towards the farmland, holding farm tools in their hands, just like normal farmers. But at this moment, you see a group of people suddenly gathered in the village, they cheered and seemed to be happy, but you can't see what is happening where you are now, do you choose to change places? 】

Be!

You look around, and then find a suitable position to continue observing, at this time, you look at the crowd gathered in the village, and then you realize that they seem to have caught a person. 】
