Chapter 17: Evil Deeds, Town

"On that day, the girl had just returned to the courtyard, and the lady, who had not appeared for a long time, brought the girl a bowl of soup, saying that it was to calm her nerves. However, the girl drank this bowl of soup and began to have nightmares that night. Hong began to reminisce about the events of that day.

When Ayu heard this, her eyes were stunned for a moment, and her face immediately turned pale: "Ah Hong, this is impossible, although my mother is not close to me, it will not harm me, I am her child after all." ”

Hearing this, Ayu remembered the past and shook her head desperately.

Luo Qingwu looked at Ayu's face, and began to have some doubts in her heart.

"It's not that the slave is alarmist, the lady has not been out of the yard for many years, and she doesn't care about the girl. On that day, while the old man and the son were not at home, they brought a bowl of soup to the girl, and after the girl drank it, she began to have nightmares that night. Ah Hong analyzed carefully.

"You mean, my mother caused my nightmares, so why did my mother do this? Am I not her child? Ayu was still comforting herself.

"This matter is not clear to the slave and maid. But that day, the only thing that was different was this. Otherwise, we will tell Childe about this, Childe is so smart, he should be able to guess. Ah Hong looked at Ah Yu's appearance and opened her mouth to propose.

"No, this matter is inconclusive, how can you wronged your mother like this, no." Ayu rejected Ah Hong's idea.

"Ayu, you ask A-Hong to tell me what unusual things happened during that time." Luo Qingwu spoke at the right time.

Ayu nodded slightly: "Ah Hong, do you remember what unusual things happened at home or in the town during that time?" ”

"Something unusual? Oh, I remember, during that time, there were fewer beggars on the streets, does this count? Hong's eyes lit up.

"Is there one?" Ayu was a little puzzled.

"Yes, usually girls go to the street to buy some food and give it to the little beggars, but during that time, beggars were rarely seen. The girl also said at that time whether the little beggars had gone elsewhere to spend the winter. Ah Hong analyzed.

"I remember, during that time, the streets were indeed deserted, and the little girl I used to go to buy flowers was gone." Ayu also recalled.

When Luo Qingwu heard this, he began to communicate with the overlord in the sea of knowledge.

"Batian, you said they wouldn't be arresting people to practice, right?" Luo Qingwu asked, her knowledge of this world is still limited, and she doesn't understand many things.

"It should be someone who is using human blood to refine evil skills." When Batian said this, his always shyly face became serious.

"Evil deeds?" Luo Qingwu was a little surprised.

"Exactly, there are two kinds of exercises in this world, one is to rely on oneself and keep cultivating to become stronger, and this time will take a long time, and there will be people who use another way. Relying on external objects to become stronger, for example, absorbing the essence of the living human body to speed up the growth. Although this method can quickly become stronger, it is against the way of heaven, so it cannot be ascensed. Batian explained.

"That means there's a cult in this place?" Luo Qingwu didn't expect that before one thing was clarified, a new problem would arise again.

"This should have happened a thousand years ago, when the entrance was not completely closed, it was possible for the people on the interface to escape here, and it was normal for there to be a cult." Batian guessed.

"Okay, I got it." Luo Qingwu pondered for a while and spoke.

In the end, the soldiers will block, and the water will cover the earth.

"Ayu, I want to go to the town to have a look, but I can't be too far away from you, and I still need you to accompany me on a trip." Luo Qingwu thought, let's go to the town to have a look, and I should be able to find out what clues.

"Okay" Ayu nodded, and then said to Ahong: "Ahong, after eating, I want to go to the town to see the jewelry, can you go and talk to the coachman first?" ”

"Okay, girl" Although Ah Hong, who was strange to Ah Yu, who had never liked jewelry, wanted to go to the town to buy jewelry, she still obediently went to call the coachman to set the carriage.

"Immortal, do you see something wrong?" Ayu waited for Ah Hong to leave, and then asked Luo Qingwu.

"Well, I'm not sure yet, I'm going to go to town." Luo Qingwu nodded, not planning to say more.

"Okay, then I'll eat quickly, immortal, do you want to eat?" Ayu asked uncertainly.

"No" Luo Qingwu felt this place, not only did she not need to consume too much physical strength, but she also felt energetic.

After Ayu finished eating, she took Luo Qingwu and Ah Hong out.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Ayu's mother standing there, as if she had been waiting for her for a long time.

"Mother" Ayu stepped forward to salute, Luo Qingwu looked at Ayu's mother, and only felt that her temperament was a little weird.

His hair was gray, his face was devoid of flesh, and he was covered with a thin layer of hungry blue-yellow skin. The body is thin and curved, not at all like Ayu's mother. The only difference was that her eyes were sparkling.

"Don't look up what you shouldn't, or you'll be responsible for the consequences." Although she was talking to Ayu, she was looking at Luo Qingwu's position.

Luo Qingwu received that gaze, and only felt a little infiltrating, it didn't look like looking at a living person at all.

"Mother, what are you talking about?" Ayu lowered her head in fear.

"The words have come to this, if you want to go to death, I will not stop you." After she said this, she immediately left.

As she passed by Luo Qingwu, she paused: "This is not the place for you to stay, get out early." ”

With that, she trembled and left the place.

When Luo Qingwu heard this, she was sure that Ayu's mother could see her.

"Batian, you say, is this really an illusion? I always felt that this was a real world, and what was happening now was also something real. Luo Qingwu had some doubts, if it was an illusion, then she would only be a passerby, and she would not change anything.

However, Ayu can see her, and Ayu's mother can also see her, all of this is too strange.

"If you can change it, it means that this is not an illusion, if you can't, it is an illusion. Don't think about it so much now, go to the town first and learn more about it. Batian interrupted Luo Qingwu's thoughts, not wanting her to continue thinking.

"It's okay" Luo Qingwu asked Ayu to take her and get into the carriage.

When he arrived in the town, Luo Qingwu finally saw an acquaintance.

Before she could speak, the man came towards her.

"Ah Luo, you are also here, I finally met someone I know, woo" Chaohe walked over with a dirty face, with a look of joy on his face, and it could be seen that he had suffered a lot.
