Chapter 137
"Is this the legendary mocking bird?"
The appearance of the robin is very recognizable. Le Yushan gently stroked the ring in her pocket, but saw the little bird chirping on her shoulder a few times before circling away, as if it had never been there before.
And her thoughts had already turned around when the robin rested on her shoulders, and it seemed that there was an inexplicable attraction that attracted her to follow the bird.
A dull feather was thrown on Le Yushan's body, she gently picked it up and stuffed it into her pocket.
"Let's go."
After arriving at the venue, everyone realized that the team was not complete.The woman who found Zhugan's body didn't come because she said she had an upset stomach, and Brother Long didn't come either. In fact, Xia Qianlan didn't hit too hard, it just looked scary and hurt his tongue.But Brother Long probably didn't want to be with such a scary woman anymore, so he didn't come.
Another is that the man who aggressively questioned the woman during the day was also dying, and was placed inside the church, unable to attend.
And Ji Yaoyao came, but Li Antai didn't come.
Xia Qianlang didn't expect that Li Antai would be absent from such an important plot, seeing this, he took advantage of the count and asked quietly: "Yaoyao, where's An Tai?"
"He said that the pain in his head really can't come."
Ji Yaoyao shook her head and said distressedly.
Tonight's plot will definitely be a very important point, but relatively speaking, it will definitely be very dangerous. Xia Qianlang does not believe that Li Antai will be the kind of person who is so greedy for life and afraid of death that he dare not even come to this plot point. There must be something else, but it's also unlikely to be a real headache, which was fine before.
"Very well, the deacon, the bell ringer, and the undertaker did not come. It seems that this is a funeral that is destined to be imperfect."
The godfather sneered.
He did not say who these three people were, but in fact it can be calculated from the missing number.
The deacon is a skylark, the bell ringer is a cow, and if Xia Qianlan understands correctly, the undertaker should be a beetle helping to sew the shroud.An idea gradually emerged in my mind. If people were to be buried first and then sacrificed tonight, then the identities of many people could actually be revealed...
The others probably also thought of this question, and their expressions changed slightly.
"Due to the large number of absentees tonight, the funeral has been postponed. The coffin bearer is no longer there. Please come and take her place spontaneously."
Carrier?The dead woman is Tobi!
【Who will carry the coffin?It's me, Yuan said, if I don't walk at night, I will come to carry the coffin. 】
Xia Qianlan suddenly recalled the nursery rhyme, in which Yuan said the precondition was "if you don't walk at night", and Yunque's sentence was "as long as you don't go at night, I will be a deacon".
Could it be that Li Antai's identity is a skylark?
As soon as the words fell, the godfather's cold words reached her ears: "Who will take the torch?"
[Who will take the torch?It's me, said the cardinal, and I'll bring it right away.I will carry the torch. 】
When Xia Qianlan raised her hand, all eyes fell on her. Because there were no beetles to sew the shroud, so now she could send the funeral directly with the torch, and she became the first A person who reveals his identity.
Ignoring those gloating or worried eyes, Xia Qianlan took the torch from the godfather.
The barrel of the torch is icy cold, just touching it seemed like a force was absorbing her temperature, allowing her body temperature to continuously pass to the torch barrel.Under the attack of the night wind, Xia Qianlan couldn't help but shiver.
The coffin was unsteadily lifted up by several men, and there was a couple supporting the coffin, and a couple who seemed to be NPCs. They were a bit older, and their indifferent expressions were incompatible with the current atmosphere.
Although the funeral procession was not complete, they still set off in a mighty way.
It was very cold to hold the torch in his hand. Although Xia Qianlan was not a person with poor physique, he was still shivering under the attack of the night wind, especially the torch tube seemed to be sucking her temperature all the time, as if there was something The living things are ordinary, depriving her of the source of life little by little.
Just when she doubted whether she could carry the torch to the destination intact, the woman's warm hand suddenly grabbed her arm, and in the darkness, Le Yushan quickly and quietly approached her, hugging her comfortingly. hugged her shoulder.
The temperature of the two of them was close to each other, Xia Qianlan felt her nervousness, and her body was trembling slightly, or the wind tonight was too cold, it was too cold to bear.
The funeral procession is not allowed to speak casually on the road, of course Le Yushan did not dare to break the rules easily, but she still gave her a reassuring smile.
Even though the woman's flowery face was a little different from the usual horror under the light of the fire, the next moment, when Xia Qianlan blinked, Le Yushan returned to normal.
Xia Qianlan's heart shrank suddenly, but she felt that hand grasping her even tighter. The temperature on her body was a little dry and hot due to the deliberate contact of her skin in the dark, which relieved the pain caused by the cold feeling just now. discomfort.
"Buried—"
The desolate wind swept through a few wisps of dry grass, and they were buried in the soil along with the wooden coffin sealed with nails. The wet soil was still slightly fishy. Following the emotionless sound of the person in charge, the two couples finally After completing his mission, he put down the heavy coffin.
The flame in Xia Qianlan's hand was blown out by the wind at the same time, and the world seemed to be buried silently in the soil at the moment Yuan was buried.The sound of breathing was completely swallowed by the wind, and the coolness slowly penetrated into the bone marrow.
Le Yushan touched the ring, and the lifelike robin on it was actually slightly hot.
The feather in her pocket was also scorching hot, as if it could burn the whole person up.After realizing something was wrong, Le Yushan always felt flustered in her heart, raised her eyes in the dark and looked around, only felt that the air pressure was low, but she didn't feel anything strange.
Suddenly thought of something, she raised her head and looked towards the sky.
Le Yushan's eyebrows twitched suddenly.
The sky at this time is different from the clear sky when we first came here. The stars are hidden in the clouds, and the moon is nowhere to be seen. Instead, thick dark clouds are rolling in the sky, and they are about to weave into a dense net to envelop people. Come in.
She didn't dare to make it too obvious, because no one else seemed to notice such an abnormality.
Le Yushan could only quietly push Ji Yaoyao who was walking in front of her, and hooked Nan Ye over, making a gesture of pointing upwards. Both of them were very smart and understood immediately.
As for Xia Qianlan, she had sensed it long before she noticed it, and was already looking for a place to hide from the rain.
The four women gradually slowed down, as if they were exhausted from walking for too long.Passing through the dense forest, the luxuriant bushes blocked the changes of the sky, and the surrounding bushes were like ghost claws in the dark. Even though they were panicking, they slowed down again.
"Boom--"
The moment the thunder came, Xia Qianlan, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately opened the umbrella, which she spent a lot of money in the mall to exchange for. The next moment, the heavy rain poured down, sweeping the whole world in an instant, but Did not touch the four of them at all.
And amidst the screams of panic, a bloody storm kicked off completely.
**
Most of the people who went to the funeral that day contracted the disease the next day. They first suffered from headaches and brain fever, and then dizziness and vomiting. , Then I remembered that the game has a team mechanism.
They were divided into husband and wife. As long as there is no conflict, at least they can take care of each other. Xia Qianlang heard from Li Antai that he saw at least three people go to the small clinic at noon, but it is not known whether they have received treatment. .
In order to get news, Ji Yaoyao took the initiative to ask Ying to go there pretending to be sick, and when she came back her face was heavy.
"The doctor was arguing with me for a long time and didn't talk about the main points. Finally, he faltered and told me that maybe giving birth to the child would solve the problem. The cycle of this disease is that it will rapidly worsen and then die after one day."
But the children in their stomachs are still young, how can they be born?
The doctor refused to say any more when he said this, and turned around to leave, but he didn't drive away the anxious Ji Yaoyao.Of course, what Ji Yaoyao is worried about is not that she is sick, but that those who are not sick will definitely become the targets of hatred, and it will be so easy for those people to think a little bit wrongly.
Ji Yaoyao has not dared to drink the water delivered to her door, and the system mall has also closed the option to exchange food. She is very afraid that those people will drug the water.
"By the way, I also saw that many people went to the woman yesterday, including Brother Long. It seems that her belly is swollen now, and everyone wants to know how she made her belly bigger. "
As for how to ask, it may not be very gentle.
"They want to rely on this to get out? But in the end, didn't they want to find out the real murderer who killed the mockingbird?" Nan Ye frowned, "So putting the cart before the horse?"
"It's like this now, of course it's about whether I can survive before I lose my fighting power." Le Yushan sneered, "If there is no accident, if you ask the result over there, the lunatic will come to the door soon. I said that the NPCs in this dungeon are not strong in combat..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by the sound of hurried footsteps, Xia Qianlan stood in front of him vigilantly, but when he opened the door, he saw one of the two dwarves.
At that time, she asked them to inform her, because it was not a dangerous thing, and there would be a good harvest, and the two readily agreed.At this time, the female dwarf raised her head eagerly:
"The godfather brought the old witch here. Someone revealed that there is a witch among you. The execution ground has been set up over there, and we are going to torture you!"
