Chapter 68
Mingli looked at the town so peacefully, and there was an indescribable weirdness in her heart, but she didn't notice anything unusual.
He stepped into a nearby inn, intending to see if he could find out some news about Xie Liqing.
"Guest, do you want something?"
Seeing that there were customers in the store, Xiao Er hurriedly greeted him, and asked with a warm smile on his face.
Oh, it's been a long time, and if there is no more guest, this inn will fall to ashes.
"An upper room. Mingli said casually.
"Okay!"
When Xiao Er heard the order, he immediately smiled and arranged a good house for Mingli.
There aren't many people in this inn now, and any one that opens is a good house, and this guest is really earning.
Mingli stood at the window, raised his eyes and looked out of the window, the green shade was flourishing, many people ordered a bowl of noodles and sat down to eat and chat, and they were happy.
It stands to reason that this should not be the state that is rumored to be the state of Lethe Town, which is very dangerous.
was thinking for a moment, Xiao Er's voice came from the door, and Mingli let him in.
"Guest officer, this is a small dish added to you by the small shop, it tastes good, and I ask the guest officer to enjoy it slowly. ”
Xiao Er came in with some wine and food, put one by one on the table, and praised it.
His eyes were fixed on Ming Li, as if he was expecting him to use his chopsticks to taste it.
Ming Li glanced at the wine and food, smelling the aroma and mouth-watering, in such an ordinary small inn, it is indeed a very good delicacy.
But he didn't have an appetite at this time, not to mention that under the uncertainty of this situation, he didn't dare to eat the things here casually.
"Xiao Er, is this Lethe Town?" asked Mingli directly.
"Yes, we're here in Lethe, and it's lively. ”
Hearing the guest's question, Xiao Er immediately replied happily, and his voice seemed to have raised a tone.
He'd grown up here since he was a kid, and he felt that there was nothing quite like it being here, and this guest was definitely here.
"If you are interested, you can also participate in our events. ”
They have events in the town every day, and he himself attends them regularly.
Ming Li was not interested in the activities they were talking about, and since he was sure that this was Lechuan Town, he should be able to find Xie Liqing soon.
"Do you know where the grass is?"
Thinking of the words left by Xie Liqing, Ming Li opened his mouth and asked Xiao Er.
Hearing Ming Li's question, the smile on Xiao Er's face seemed to freeze for a moment, but he quickly kept smiling and said, "Stop the grass, I haven't heard of this little one, we shouldn't have such a thing here, right?"
After Xiao Er finished speaking, he stood quietly aside to see if Mingli had any other instructions.
"It's all right. ”
Mingli nodded at him, now Mingli was puzzled again, since Xie Liqing said that he came here to look for the Stop Grass, it should not be wrong.
But since Xiao Er said that he didn't know, he didn't want to ask more.
"Okay, if you have something to do, call Xiao Er again. After saying that, Xiao Er withdrew with a smile, and helped Mingli close the door by the way.
Mingli thought about it, since there was no clue here, then he went outside to look for it.
As it approached noon, the town was just as lively.
Mingli passed by a few stalls, and they all enthusiastically sold him something.
"This little brother, what do you think of my hairpin, buy a handful, take it back and give it to the lady, it's okay. ”
An old lady strongly recommended the hairpins on her stall to Mingli, the hairpins were placed together in a colorful way, and they looked beautiful and eye-catching under the sunlight.
Mingli stopped, looked at the extremely enthusiastic old lady, and asked again, "Auntie, do you know where the grass is?"
"Oh, where do I know this? Come, look at my hairpin!"
The old lady said with a smile, wanting to stuff a hairpin in her hand into Mingli's hand.
Mingli didn't hear the answer she wanted, nodded apologetically to the old lady, and left the stall.
"Eh, don't go, let's take a look. The old lady shouted behind her, begging Mingli to stay.
Not long after leaving, it seems that I met a monk who also came to Lethe Town.
"What's the matter with you, don't you have long eyes when you walk?"
There was a quarrel not far away, and the man patted his clothes angrily, and looked angrily at the person who hit him.
The anger in his heart became more and more intense, and the man raised his hand and slapped the man in the face heavily.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. ”
The man didn't dodge, he took the slap stiffly, and said apologies in his mouth, but he still had a smile on his face, and he didn't seem to be angry.
This made the man even more angry, and snorted at him, his face trembling, but he was probably afraid that this was Lechuan Town, so he didn't dare to dwell too much.
"It's really unlucky, saying that this town is full of treasures, and I haven't even seen a ghost. ”
The man cursed, passed the man, and hurried away in one direction.
Mingli could finally feel where this weirdness was, the man was beaten and scolded, and the smile on his face was still the same, the same smile as Xiao Er in the inn and those vendors on the street.
Moreover, as a monk, the man could not avoid the collision of the man with him in time, so it is very likely that the man was not a human at all.
Mingli thought so, that is, the enthusiastic townspeople he felt all the way were not human at all.
Someone approached him at this time, looking at Ming Li with a warm smile on his face, as if to welcome him to this peaceful world.
Mingli twisted her hand slightly, and handed the wind blade in her hand into the man's body.
The smile on the man's face suddenly froze, but his eyes were still full of smiles, as if he was forgiving Mingli for his cruel behavior, and slowly fell to the ground.
Mingli was thinking about whether she was wrong and wanted to go forward to find out about the man's situation.
A gloomy wind blew, and the warm sun seemed to fall in an instant, replaced by a dark and dark curtain, and the town that was still lively and harmonious instantly turned into a hellish appearance, and the people who fell to the ground were long gone.
Sure enough, this is what Lethe Town should look like, and it should have been a deceptive illusion before.
