"Can you make a sound again?" the old woman walked towards Johnny, a kind smile on her face. It seems that he is really happy that the little earth spirit can find his voice.

When Johnny saw the old woman appear, he immediately stopped singing, stood up and replied proudly, "Yes, but I feel like an octave is missing, I'll look for it when I get home in a while, and see if it's been left somewhere." ”

When Geralt and Geralt saw the old woman appear, they no longer hid their tracks, and walked out of the shadows of the wooden house.

Seeing that the two strangers who had appeared in the morning had reappeared at this moment, the old woman immediately complained loudly, "Johnny, you can't bring them here, and you shouldn't have come, it's not in order, haven't you learned enough?"

"Grandma, please calm down and don't lose your temper again, okay? Johnny comforted him instead.

"Hello, we've met before and learned about the gray-haired woman from Johnny. I hope you can help us, we are looking for her..."Geralt and the others stood far away from the old woman, so as not to get too close and cause the old woman to be dissatisfied. And once again made a request to get news of Ciri from the old woman.

It's a pity that the old woman looked at Geralt, who was full of white hair, and didn't say anything, as if there were no two people in front of her.

At this point, Johnny interjected, "Grandma, please forgive me for being rude, but these two guys have to talk to the three ladies." ”

"No, that won't work! absolutely not!" the old woman immediately rejected the little spirit's proposal.

"Please, it's important. We are not her enemies, she is my adopted daughter, she is in an unknown danger and needs my help as a father, we have been tracking her whereabouts, and we only hope that you can help you a little. When it came to Ciri, Geralt once again lowered his attitude and asked the old woman for help.

"These two guys are not lying, they are telling the truth. Grandma, please listen to me," Johnny pleaded again for Geralt and the others, "I was the one who helped find Yana when she was lost, right? Jenny was sick with a fever, and I found the herb from the swamp, and I also took half of the credit for her recovery, right? But have I always asked for something in return? No, I haven't even complained to you about the loss of my voice." ”

Speaking of this, Xiao Di Ling pointed at Geralt and the others sincerely, "However, now that I have something to come to the door and need your help, I really can't help it. Grandma, you can help these two poor fellows too. Otherwise, they would haunt me all day long, even when I went to the bathroom. His daughter has disappeared in the swamp, and maybe the three noble ladies will be able to help her, right?"

The little earth spirit's words seemed to have finally touched the iceberg, and the old woman turned around helplessly, looking a little soft-hearted and moved. She thought for a moment, then let out a long sigh, "Okay, Johnny, since you've said so, I'll help them." ”

The old woman turned to Geralt and the others again, "Remember, I'm here to help you for Johnny's sake, well, come with me now." ”

After a lot of twists and turns, he finally got the opportunity to meet the mysterious witch, Geralt smiled and thanked the little earth spirit, and Luo Xian also bowed his head slightly.

The little earth spirit smiled happily and said goodbye to the two of them as he bounced back into the depths of the swamp.

The old woman led the two to the tallest building in the village, a house with a steeple that resembled a church.

It's night, but it's brightly lit, and it's full of oil lamps, candles, bones of various animals, dried corpses of birds and bats, and even colored ropes made of strips of cloth of various colors hang from the beams of the house, which is full of exotic and mysterious atmosphere.

Of course, as the most indispensable medicinal herb for witches, the room is also full of bottles and jars soaked in unknown liquids and internal organs, which is very consistent with the image of medieval European witches imagined by Luo Xian's mind.

So, the so-called witches are actually astronomers and biologists who have mastered mysterious energy?

Who knows the truth of the matter?

"Johnny is a good boy, knowing that I have headaches and have a hard time falling asleep at night, he often finds time to come and sing for me secretly, I am grateful to him, but I have never had a chance to repay him. It's just that the three ladies here don't like him, they call him a 'disgusting thing', and they keep trying to drive him away from the village, and confiscating his voice is actually a warning and punishment. The old woman led the way, talking about Johnny's relationship with the village and herself.

Finally, the trio stopped deep inside the house.

There is a huge woolen tapestry hanging in the air, which is more than a dozen square meters, covering almost the entire space.

The four corners of the tapestry are pulled by dense colored ropes, which are tied to the beams and columns, so that they are as stable as a solid.

The woolen tapestry does not seem to be afraid of fire, and the offering table in front of it is filled with uneven candlesticks, which are lit by candles of various sizes, so that visitors can see the contents without difficulty.

These are three life-size half-fruited women with long hair, sitting around and taking flowers from their baskets. It's just that from the skin exposed on their bodies, it can be seen that there is a red liquid everywhere, I don't know if it's juice or blood. Although the women are beautiful, the whole picture looks extremely depressing, even a little terrifying.

The top of the three women, with a painted eye, stares lonely and indifferently at the comer in front of the tapestry.

"Who are the women on the tapestry?" Geralt was a little surprised, he didn't realize that there were no witches in the room, but tapestries of several women, which surprised him a little.

"These are the three ladies who are at the helm of the Willen Marshes. The old woman looked at the tapestry in front of her with some obsession, and then gradually approached, "You will receive their teachings. ”

"Listen to my supplication, Loving Lady, who controls all things, and hear my call, for there is a lowly being who wants to ask to see you. As she spoke, the old woman bent down again, one hand in front of her lower abdomen, and the other on the tapestry.

When the old woman's words were finished, a cold air flow suddenly surged before the tapestry, blowing the candlelight in the whole room. Then there was a sudden burst of fire, and the color of the candlelight flame changed from orange-red to deep red.

Luo Xian calmly looked carefully, and found that the old woman at this moment raised her head suddenly, her eyes rolled up, revealing the white eyeballs under the pupils, and her usually kind appearance suddenly became a little hideous, clearly entering a state of possession, as if something unknown had entered the old woman's body in an instant just now.

Immediately after, several strange voices sounded from the old woman's mouth at the same time, and it seemed that a strange old woman was speaking, "Woman, you dare to disturb our rest?"

Geralt seemed to be accustomed to these tricks, and a cold smile appeared on his lips, and he said, "That's how you share a body to speak? Well, I don't care about these things. To get to the point, we're looking for a young woman with gray hair, and we know you've already met her. My question is, excuse me, right now, where is she?"

"He looks handsome and smart, which makes people feel excited~"

"Oh, he's impatient!"

"Maybe he only likes girls with gray hair, should we consider changing the color of the hair?"

Three different voices came out of the old woman's mouth in turn, and they seemed to be the three mysterious witches in everyone's mouth, who seemed to like to meet mortals in this way.

"Obviously, a few of you have seen her, please tell me the details, that's what we're asking for here. Geralt was unmoved by these words.

"The handsome kid is really straightforward. Well, maybe it's better that way. ”

"Tell me, are you bold, are you afraid of the beasts of the forest?"

"Gray-haired boy, we're not having a good time here. There are civil wars and rivers of blood everywhere, and the evil forces hidden in the depths are much greater than before. ”

The three voices were full of compassion and sadness, as if they were really the favor of the region.

"You only pay off. ”

"Valuable actions are exchanged for valuable messages. ”

"A dark force that is awakening has appeared near the village of Nizhny Valen. This force is feeding on local hatred and contempt. Destroy that beast and we will thank you, and we will tell you all the information about the gray-haired girl. ”

"The forces of darkness? You should go to a knight or a witch hunter, not a demon hunter. ”

"Anyway, that's what you want to ask for news from the girl, in exchange for the same price. ”

"The chief of Nizhny Valen will explain to you what happened. After completing the task, remember to ask him for payment and come back with the payment, and then it will be time to fulfill the agreement between us. ”

"And now, our servant will give you a dagger. ”

"Daggers? No, demon hunters don't lack a dagger. Geralt sneered.

"The dagger is our token. When the village chief sees this dagger, he will know that we sent you to help them, and he will tell the truth. ”

"Woman, move quickly, give them the dagger!" the three old voices suddenly became agitated, and began to shout at the old woman.

"White-haired boy, don't come again until you're done with this, or you'll never get the news you want. ”

"Good luck, handsome boy, hehehe..."

After saying this, the cold air in the room disappeared impressively, and the three voices disappeared in an instant.
