"I've drunk it, but I don't have water, I'm too thirsty......" His voice became extremely hoarse, and after a while, the cough became quieter, and then he covered his lips and took a deep breath, "We can keep a certain distance to exchange clues, but not too close, otherwise it will be more dangerous for monsters to appear." ”

"I know!" The face of the person under the tree was complicated, "Are you okay?" Why climb that high? ”

"I don't have the strength to run," Shi Youqing's voice was very low, "It will be safer up there, and you can rest, if a monster comes, I'll just say that." ”

After ......a short silence, Feng Bin looked up at him again, "What is the truth about Chenggu Town that you are talking about?" ”

Hearing this, the young man in the tree turned his eyes slightly, and looked straight at the boy in his arms.

Feng Bin also followed his line of sight to look at Jiang Xiaodou in his arms, when he met Yu Yifan, he knew that Jiang Xiaodou had a problem, but he was not so afraid, even if it was a ghost, to him, it was just a child, not to mention that the other party had been cooperating with him on tasks.

Feng Bin: "Jiang Haofan, their father and son are dead, I already know." ”

"Well, his mom is dead too."

“…… What? Feng Bin's eyes widened slightly, "You, did you meet the monster that Li Mei became......

"No," Shi Youqing shook his head, "their family died before those monsters appeared. ”

Otherwise, the female corpse he saw and Jiang Xiaodou's father and son could not all be normal human appearances.

“……”

"Jiang Xiaodou," the young man's always gentle voice became cold, "Until now, don't you take out that half of the genealogy?" ”

"Uh......h Woo woo woo ......" The boy hugged Feng Bin tightly and began to sob.

"Give me the genealogy."

"Woo...... Woowoo woo ......"

"I'll find where you died and take you back to your mother."

The crying stopped abruptly.

The boy looked up, looked at the beautiful young man shrouded in light and shadow in the tree, and asked word by word, "Are you sure you want to find that truth?" ”

"I've found it, I just need that genealogy to verify it."

The boy smiled, then jumped out of Feng Bin's arms, took out half of the family tree hidden in his coat, and handed it to Feng Bin.

After Feng Bin took it, Jiang Xiaodou suddenly disappeared.

Shi Youqing slid down the trunk of the tree and explained to Feng Bin: "Jiang Xiaodou should have switched places with me, now he has become a single person, if he appears again, any of us can team up with him, but don't make a trip of three." ”

Feng Bin responded and gave him the half of the genealogy: "You come and see." After that, take the axe and look around, ready for the monster to appear at any time.

Flipping through the genealogy that was only half left, Shi Youqing felt an unprecedented resentment.

I didn't feel it at all when I opened it in the study before......

The half page about the psychic patriarch happened to be the part he didn't have time to see.

After a while, Shi Youqing closed the family tree.

"What the hell are you talking about?" Feng Bin asked him.

"According to the genealogy, if there is a major event in the clan, you can make a wish to the patriarch who becomes a god after death in the form of blood sacrifices, but only for major events related to the whole clan."

"......" Feng Bin's face changed.

"The blood sacrifice here doesn't say exactly how to sacrifice, but if the patriarch left behind after his death, either everyone didn't believe it, or some people made a wish by sacrificing animal blood or even a little human blood, but it didn't work, so no one took it seriously."

“…… Until a successful example emerges. ”

"In the city, a murderer happens to choose to throw his body in a small country town, how will he choose the place to throw the body? Most of them will bury corpses in barren mountains and old forests, right? What if the body was buried in the tomb of that patriarch? ”

The day after the murder was reported, the pigs in the pig farm in Chenggu Town contracted swine fever and were also in the newspapers, and they were about to face the situation of losing all their money...... In this case, whether you believe in ghosts or gods, there will always be people in the town who will go to worship and pray with the idea of trying it out......"

"It just so happened that because the corpses thrown by the murderers became sacrifices, the wishes of the townspeople were granted."

"Not only did the pig farm not go bankrupt at a loss, but it also made more money than before...... I think they started to believe in their god at that time, so they must have been desperately thinking about why they succeeded this time. Until the body in the town was found by the police...... What do you think those people will get inspired? ”

"But murder is a crime, and even if the truth about the blood sacrifice is discovered, probably no one will risk a crime to do such a thing, unless the whole town has the same wish......"

"Do you remember the flood?"

“……”

"A lot of people died in the floods...... What do the people of Chenggu Town, who believe in God's omnipotence and have lost their families, do? ”

"Each of them has a desire to come back from their dead family members."

"Who is the sacrifice in this case?"

"Is it Li Mei, who has a high probability of having a sound social relationship outside, or is it a child who is destined to live short and is easy to deceive?"

Feng Bin's fists were already shaking.

"Obviously, the sacrifice has been successful, and as you can see, all the townsfolk who left have returned."

"...... These brutes! ”

Shi Youqing stroked the genealogy in his hand: "Now to find out the place where Jiang Xiaodou died, like all lost children, his obsession before death must be to return to his mother, and Li Mei's body is on the bank of the river over there." ”

Feng Bin clenched his axe and said angrily: "...... Since he was sacrificed by those beasts, the corpse should be near the patriarch's grave, and there is a grave mountain at the foot of the opposite mountain, so we can go and see it! ”

"Hmm."

The two said to go, and after crossing the mountain, Feng Bin found that he was walking slower and slower, remembering what the other party said before, and said, "Let's go find some water nearby, first?" After saying that, he became entangled again, "The water outside may not be clean, in case there are those monsters inside...... Can you endure it any longer? ”

Shi Youqing hummed: "Let's go see the cemetery first." ”

Not long after, when they reached the foot of the mountain, Yu Yifan's figure was gone.

Just in case, Feng Bin took off his coat and twisted it into a rope, and let Shi Youqing grab the other end: "At most, it's so far away, you hurry up, I'll come over as soon as I pull someone if there's something." ”

"Okay."

Shi Youqing grabbed the "thick rope" in his hand and inspected the row of tombstones in front of him.

In addition to the name of the person and the time of death, the tombstone is also engraved with the names of relatives such as parents and children, so it is easy to rule out.

By the time the day dawned completely, they had already finished reading the tombstones of the grave mountain.

There is no tombstone of the patriarch of a hundred years ago.

Shi Youqing didn't stand still when he checked the last row, twisted his foot, and Feng Bin carried the person without thinking: "Go back to the town first, you have to drink water." ”

"Oh," the young man hung his head weakly, "and if you meet anyone else, ask them if they have any clues...... But don't get too close. ”

"Don't worry."

When I returned to the town, the number of monsters was noticeably higher.

Feng Bin quickly recited the words that were like a life-saving talisman, and after rushing into the complex, he immediately found a room with a locked door, and rushed in with an axe to forcibly break down the iron lock.

"You can't enter a house that is open." Feng Bin explained while putting the person on the ground, found a flat pole to stand behind the door, he didn't put too much thought into the door, and then picked up Shi Youqing and rushed into an unlocked kitchen inside, and locked the door after entering.

Seeing the other party panting and holding his thermos cup to receive water, Shi Youqing blinked slowly: "Thank you." ”

The water had already been connected, and the other party took the cup to his mouth: "No, you also saved me." ”

After drinking the water, Shi Youqing leaned against the wall, closed his eyes slightly and began to rest.

Feng Bin checked the kitchen and said, "There are sweet potatoes here, do you want to eat some first?" ”

No response.

He turned to look.

Shi Youqing was already asleep.

Feng Bin went to work near the stove, picked up the sweet potatoes piled up on the ground, cleaned a few, and finally used a ready-made axe to chop wood to make a fire......

When Shi Youqing woke up, he first smelled a slightly sweet sweet potato fragrance.

When he looked over, Feng Bin had already put the boiled sweet potatoes into the cold water, noticed that he was awake, and strode over and handed him one: "Pad your stomach first, save your strength, I will bring it if you can't finish eating, if you can't get out in a short time, you can't starve to death here." ”

Shi Youqing said thank you and took it.

When I took a bite, it was very soft and glutinous, and it was not dry at all because of the boiling.

He was full after eating one, but he was still a little dizzy, and continued to sit on the ground to recuperate.

Feng Bin had a big appetite, and after eating a few, he sat down opposite him, but his eyes were always vigilantly staring out the window in case the monster suddenly appeared.

"You're dreaming again." Feng Bin, who was staring at the window, suddenly whispered.

“？”

"When I was cooking sweet potatoes, I heard you calling Mommy."

"Oh," he said suddenly, "before I entered the dungeon, my mother was missing. ”

"You're in the safe ...... before Said in that house. Feng Bin looked at him, "Are you scared?" ”

Shi Youqing tilted his head, and his eyes fell back on the dusty ground: "Maybe." ”

How is it possible not to be afraid? Feng Bin felt that he had asked a very stupid question, and said, "You have found so many clues, and you are just short of the final location...... I will definitely be able to get out this time. ”

Shi Youqing still had that expression: "Maybe." ”

“……”

The air froze, and suddenly the young man laughed: "Actually, I dream quite a lot. ”

Feng Bin looked at him puzzled.

"Since the last time I was hospitalized, I've often dreamed of dreams like this copy, and there are many people like you......"

“…… Is it a prophetic dream? ”

smiled and didn't answer, Shi Youqing held his chin and continued: "But it's not all such nightmares, there are also some good dreams, like fairy tales." ”

Feng Bin looked like he was willing to hear about it.

"My mother liked the story of Liang Zhu very much, she said that there is a Liang Zhu theme park in the neighboring city, and there are many beautiful butterflies in the spring, and she said that she would take me there next spring...... I had a dream that night, and I dreamed that the world was full of butterflies of all colors, and it was beautiful. ”

Feng Bin was slightly stunned.

"When I woke up, I decided that I must go to see those butterflies next spring," the young man clasped his hands on his knees, his amber pupils as quiet as a pool of lake water, "with my mother." ”
