Chapter 150: Friendly Cruelty and Truth
Looking at the old man who was sent back by the passing villagers, Lesia reluctantly walked back home.
She had already walked a distance just now, but she didn't expect to be cut off by the villagers, and they were too enthusiastic.
Since you can't see the forbidden place, go to the forest at night to have a look, my brother's shotgun should still be there, and get ready to go to the forest tonight.
Lesia instinctively felt that she couldn't go on like this, she must have something to do.
When she returned home, she took advantage of Dermot's lack of attention and Natalia not coming back, and secretly went to the back warehouse to rummage.
Instinctively and skillfully stealth to open the door, relying on dim natural light to find a target. Find a dusty single-barreled shotgun set in a place full of sticks.
It was wrapped in a cloth bag outside, and no one had used it for a long time, and it was pressed inside by the sticks that were usually used to replace the yard fence.
Lesia carefully opened it so that the dust could not get on her, and checked the mechanical condition of the gun, which was still usable.
To be on the safe side, she opened it and took a box of grease to maintain it, without forgetting to bring the gardener's gloves.
How could I be so skilled?
She tried it and wrapped it again without any problems, feeling like she was born to use it.
Pulling the stick apart, a box of bullets was found in the gap below, each of which was wrapped in a separate powder pack, which could be used without moisture.
'Hopefully tonight will have a result.' ’
After picking a dagger and picking up the gun and bullets, she secretly hid in the grass and flowers at the edge of the yard, and then she went back to the house through the window, pretending to be still reading.
At dinner, she looked at Natalia opposite, she was the one who was in charge of the house, and Dermot was just taking care of the daily chores.
"Natalia, it's been a long time since we've been outside, when are we going out?"
Natalia stopped the fork in her hand, her expression changed quickly a few times, and her steel-like pupils reappeared and dispersed, and she said calmly.
"When you're done with the portrait of the saint, let's go together as a family."
She smiled and continued to eat. Lesia, who was on the other side, breathed a sigh of relief, for fear of being taught another lesson.
"Where to go, Natalia. I want to go back to the city where I studied. ”
"Is that so? Yes, you just have to be obedient and cooperate with Murray. ”
"I will, then we'll say so."
Lesia observed quietly, and noticed that something was very wrong, and no one said the specific name of the place.
I was also sorry for the Demot family before, and I didn't have any impression of it, and it seems that I really forgot some memories.
After she finished eating, she returned to her room, where a few books were still on the desk in the mirror, and the cold lenses prevented the approaching hand.
After a few taps and looking at herself in the reflection, Laceia thought of something.
Pick up the small mirror you had brought with you on the table and place it on top of the book, where the new book was almost unopened.
"Six Hundred Years of Ma Xi", "Quaternary Archaeological Events"...
She put her hand down, and it was still empty, but it was a big bonus to be able to see the author's name and the title of the book on it.
She hasn't heard of Juan and Jones, and is Marcy a country? Quaternary, somewhat familiar.
Nes am Publishing, Stuttgart Verlag... Fourth edition of 1351...
After reading the familiar and unfamiliar words above, she seemed to have been to these places, why did her head be heavy when she thought about it.
She didn't like the sensation emanating from these necklaces, but she couldn't take them off yet.
After reading everything she could see, she sat back on the bed, thinking about the information she had received and that she had to go to the forest to confirm the situation.
The Forbidden Land also has to find a way. North, he went to the Forbidden Lands, maybe you can find him.
Even fears must be overcome, and we must not continue here without explanation.
"What are you thinking, Lessia?"
Natalia walked in and sat on the edge of the bed, hugging her with her legs bent and burying her face to her knees, and brushing her red hair with her hands.
"I'm a little scared."
"Don't worry, I'll be with you, go take a shower and sleep, don't think too much."
"Okay."
In the middle of the night, Lesia opened her eyes and got up quietly.
Quickly put on a shirt and baggy pants, buttoned up a thin black long-sleeved jacket, and put on the previous lace-up booties. The hair is also tied up at the back of the head.
After confirming that there was no smell on his body, he gently fell from the window to the grass like a feather without making any sound.
Grab the shotgun gear hidden in the grass and climb out of the fence and into the night.
In the other room, Natalia opened her eyes, revealing dark and cold eyes, lifted the quilt and stood up, heading towards Lesia's room.
Relying on instinctive instinct, Lesia avoided the obvious traces and saw the woodland where the old man was.
Hidden into the darkness, she sped up as she walked forward, a feeling that she remembered vaguely as she had done it before.
The surrounding wind and grass are clear, and there are a few traps in some hidden places.
She avoided it like a hunter, leaving no trace, and finally came to the outside of a wooden fence.
Inside is a wooden house in the woods with lights out. It doesn't look big, but it's no problem to stay two or three people.
Does the old man live here? There was another person.
Hiding her fear, Laceia filled her shotgun with gunpowder, loaded it with bullets and went to the door of the wooden house to knock on the wooden door.
After a long time, the wooden door opened, and the man who came carrying an oil lamp saw only the muzzle of a bright gun, and he raised his hand to signal that there was no dangerous movement.
At this time, I saw Lesia hiding behind the shadow of the plank, and it should be said that she took the initiative to come out.
The light blue eyes are fierce and oppressive, like the old hunters of the forest.
"You can take whatever I have here, calm down."
The middle-aged man was dressed in the clothes of an ordinary farmer, and his temperament was calm and dignified, and he maintained a somewhat nervous expression to speak.
"Don't look at that axe, I pulled the trigger faster, I just wanted to ask you a few questions."
A cold voice sounded, and Lesia restrained the excitement in her heart, and she wanted to vent these familiarities at the moment.
"Tell me, look like you're a new villager from Yansir Village."
"It doesn't matter who I am, is that old man here? You're not from this village either, are you? ”
"I'm not, I just know I'm going to watch from here in the forest, and the old man is the one who used to guard here."
"Have you ever been out of here? Where are you from? ”
"I've tried to leave, I've been unconscious for a while, and when I wake up, I'll be in the cabin, and I'll forget the memories of my departure."
"How did you figure it out, and you didn't say where you came from?"
"I left a hint for myself, I don't know where I'm from, I'm thinking about my way back, I vaguely remember my name is Perek, Lele...
The middle-aged man also fell into memories and held his forehead, thought for a while, and his head hurt badly when he thought of this.
"Have you ever been to the outside world?"
"No, according to my judgment, there is no outside world at all, except here."
"How is it possible, I came back from studying outside, impossible." Lesia opened her mouth with some excitement, and the violent fluctuations undermined her vigilance as a hunter.
"Don't move, next time it's gunshots."
Perek reluctantly continued to raise her hand, the other party's performance was completely inconsistent with her appearance, this newcomer may be her own help.
"I've tried to leave many times, otherwise you think I've always wanted to stay here, there are some unknown sides of the people in the village, you should have found out before you came here to find me."
He continued to speak, and the other party was visibly shaken, but the vigilance was still there.
"Don't you think it's strange that they're acting grotesquely? I didn't dare to live with them, so that sooner or later I would become one of them and lose myself. ”
"For example, a family where only mothers and girls can get pregnant, strong monsters that appear out of nowhere, people with thorny skin and pimples, and the instinct to reproduce at any time can break a giant tree with one punch......
Perek talks about what he feels is wrong, actions that are incompatible with his subconscious.
Lesia also thought about what she always felt was wrong, that the village chief Little shouldn't be like that, as if she was deliberately seducing herself.
Every time she wanted to know more, the villagers showed up appropriately, and Natalia was blocking herself.
Betty seduces herself all the time, Awosica spreads the radiance of motherhood, and Old German's hunting ......
Lesia felt the necklaces around her neck, hands and feet become extremely heavy, why didn't she come here sooner.
The two red-haired figures I saw in the dream were my relatives, they were more like me.
No, it seems that Dermot is also important, and Natalia is also somewhat familiar.
"Do you know the Forbidden Lands?" She asked the most critical question.
"You know, it's the place where the evil is sealed, it seems that you are the sacrificial saintess, and when the ritual is ready, it is the time to sacrifice you."
Perek noticed reflections on Lesia's neck and wrists, which he could tell from some of his own inquiries.
"It's weird there, you can't get close to it at all, you saw the loud noise a few days ago, maybe the key to our memory is there."
"Do you know Marcy, Quaternary? Juan, Jones, do you know each other? ”
Lesia continued to throw questions, and Perec pondered as he listened, he felt familiar but couldn't remember.
"My family seems to be related to Marcy, I can't remember it, and so does the Quaternary." He patted his head to relieve the pain.
"Home..., back to Marcy..., my home is in Marcy...
The old man awoke, too, and came here on instinct to mutter, tears welling up in his eyes, and then he fainted.
Perek took him and placed him against the wall, and the muzzle of Lesia's gun moved to the sky.
"You see, there's nothing wrong here, it's not the place to be."
Lesia held her forehead, her head aching as if it were torn, and the necklace around her neck glowed.
"If you want to go to the forbidden place, I can cooperate with you, after all, if you don't bother, I am not willing to become a muddy nightmare."
She ignored Perek, who continued, and thought back to the keywords.
Marcy, Marcy...
The books seemed to have been bought from Marcy, and she thought back to a picture of a few books being taken.
When she tried to expand her memory again, her whole body became heavy, and if she hadn't clutched the wooden door, she would have collapsed.
The sound of her palms clutching wood sounded, and for a moment Lessia stood up again, where a handprint had been left directly.
"I think I've been to Marcy and bought books by Juan and Jones."
"What's your name? Maybe I knew you. ”
"My name is Lesia." After she finished speaking, she suddenly realized, could this be her name?
"I don't know if I'm calling this or not, so you can call it first."
Lesia shook her head, a little helpless, it seemed that there was no way to get it back.
"It's really the New Year's sacrificial saintess, you have to find a way to go to the forbidden place."
"I understand, I'm looking for an opportunity. Do you want to come along? ”
Perek was a little surprised that the other party actually invited him directly.
"Aren't you afraid of accidents?"
"There's no choice, if I don't make it, it's up to you. After all, we all want to find ourselves. ”
"Okay."
Lesia digested the information, suppressed her chaotic thoughts, and talked to Perek about something. Especially looking for that North, what should he know too?
"Be careful, that North is terrible."
"I'll keep an eye out, and I hope you can find enough intelligence and security."
With that, Lesia disappeared into the darkness, and Perek looked outside, closed the door, and put the old man back on the bed.
At the edge of the forest was a white mist, and Lesia stood in front of it, poking a few times with her branches. The branch slowly faded and ceased to exist.
She broke one off the tree, and found that it was still the case, and after a while the branch grew back.
Sighing, he went back with some mixed feelings, and continued to hide back in the darkness without leaving a trace.
With the faint light of the moon, she was about to leave the forest, and the pain in her head intensified, and her face became extremely bad.
When I turned the trunk of the tree, I saw Natalia standing behind her, her cold dark eyes, her hair loose and her nightdress raised together.
"Ahh
Lesia was startled, her tense nerves snapped, she fell pale and fell to the ground.
"What a disobedient child."
Natalia grabbed her and carried it directly on her shoulder, picked up the shotgun underneath and walked home.
"Why are you hiding it from me?"
Lesia was holding on tiredly, her hands behind her shoulders, and she wanted to know the answer.
"Don't leave the house secretly this time, the child who did something wrong should be punished, I was too tolerant of you before."
"Are you really my sister?"
She passed out as she finished speaking, and Natalia blinked, her expression a little distorted, and there was a hint of softness in her steely eyes.
"Of course."
But the unconscious Lesia didn't hear it.
Thank you for your forest, support
