Chapter 209 The old man who should not return

After hearing what Zuo Tiantian said, Xiao Muyu and Shen Qingqiu were all thinking, and soon Xiao Muyu frowned and said: "Did you hear what the man said before, there is not enough food in the village, so the children can't support themselves, if Patriarchal, no matter how many girls are born, they will not all stay at home.

Right now we haven't got the key information at all, and everything is in the fog. Let's solve the current matter first, and we will analyze it carefully when new clues come out. "

What Xiao Muyu said is right, what they know right now is fragmented and can't be connected at all, and more importantly, there are too many guesses, so it's better to be single and focus on doing things.

It is definitely not enough for five people to eat two buns. Shen Qingqiu looked at the village surrounded by mountains on three sides, and said in a low voice: "I'll go to the mountains to see if there is anything to eat, you guys eat first."

"Go out, will there be living corpses there?" Xiao Muyu was a little worried.

"It's okay, people in the village have gone out, it should be safe during the day, but you have to hurry up. I will only go for a while, I won't stay, don't worry." Shen Qingqiu comforted.

It is definitely not enough to eat just relying on work points, and this is not just lunch, dinner also needs to be resolved.What's more, I don't know how long the copy will last, and I always feel that life will be very difficult.

"Then don't go too deep, come back quickly if you can't find it." Xiao Muyu thought, and reminded again: "If you are really in danger, don't forcefully use the card to get out. The prodigal son can reset the cooldown, it's fine."

"Okay, I know." After Shen Qingqiu finished speaking, he turned around and walked out of the village.If it was really just hunting Xiao Muyu, he would definitely not let Shen Qingqiu go out.

Information in the village could not be obtained at all, and the villagers kept silent about the affairs of the village. Except for a few people, most of them ran here in a hurry as if they had seen a ghost.

And outside the village, there might be some clues, but since they have to work, they can't all go, so it is most appropriate for Shen Qingqiu to go.

Seeing Shen Qingqiu going out, the villagers didn't say anything, but there were already people in other teams watching Shen Qingqiu leave, and they were a little ready to move.

Shen Qingqiu had a good sense of direction, she remembered that they walked out of the living corpse forest yesterday, and walked more than 500 meters to the left after leaving the village.

Shen Qingqiu walked there for a certain distance, and he could vaguely see a piece of bare soil exposed in the emerald green. The soil soaked by the rain was reddish, which looked a little weird, but most of it was covered, So you can't see the whole picture.

Going forward, there is a wooden sign lying in the grass on the side of the road. Because it was too dark last night, no one noticed it.

Shen Qingqiu helped him up and took a look, it said, "No return at sunset, no going!"

The handwriting is a bit scribbled, but the strokes are eye-catching, and they are written with great force, which is enough to see the strong warning psychology of the writer.

The words on it are written in ink, and the color is not long after the time has passed, and the black is still bright.

Shen Qingqiu didn't continue to go there, turned around and walked along the road around the village to the mountain behind the village. The fields in the village were there, and there was a sign, "No stealing vegetables!"

Shen Qingqiu wanted to laugh a little, feeling that this was a deliberate reminder to these players.

Shen Qingqiu ignored it, since the system is set to trade for food, it must not be stolen, but self-reliance is always right.

And just when Shen Qingqiu was about to go up a small road to see if there were any animals to hunt, she saw something in the woods above a vegetable field. When she looked closely, it seemed to be a small house, with a little grayish white. wall.

With a thought, Shen Qingqiu turned around and walked along the ridge to the woods. After getting closer, she realized that it was not a house, but a small tower about 1.8 meters in shape. There are six floors, but the door of this tower is not at the bottom but at the top.

A small temple-like house was built next to this pagoda, with an arch left above it, and there were actually a lot of incense ash and sticks left after burning, which seemed to be used for sacrifices.

Is this the Earth Temple?Shen Qingqiu turned around to look again, there were two characters written on the pagoda, Yi Pagoda, and a line of small characters written vertically on the left side, Wuhui Village took it for burial.

Shen Qingqiu suddenly felt a little chilly, her nose twitched, a rotten smell came from the tower, she bravely approached, looked in through the small door, the rotten smell became more and more obvious as she approached, and When he saw clearly what was inside, Shen Qingqiu's pupils shrank suddenly.

But at this moment, she felt a hand suddenly resting on her right shoulder, which made Shen Qingqiu's hairs stand on end, and when she turned around, she twisted that hand, and fell on her back, and the thing was savagely crushed. fell to the ground.

Shen Qingqiu broke out in a cold sweat, his right leg was about to stomp hard, but when he saw the object clearly, he quickly turned his foot and stepped heavily on the other side's head.

"What are you going to do?" Shen Qingqiu said coldly.

On the ground was an eight or nine-year-old girl, because she was thrown to the ground by Shen Qingqiu and her head was almost stepped on, her face was pale with fright, her eyes were red from the pain, and she wailed: "Wuwu, it hurts, it hurts so much."

Hearing this, Shen Qingqiu let go of her, took two steps back and stared vigilantly at the girl who appeared behind her at some point.

The girl was sobbing, seeing Shen Qingqiu's stern expression, she said with some fear: "My father asked me to bring home the tools in the field, I saw my sister looking at this, so I wanted to tell you, it's not auspicious place, Don't look there. As a result... I didn't want to do anything, woohoo."

Shen Qingqiu glanced around suspiciously, and there were indeed two bamboo baskets and a hoe pole not far away.

She stretched out her hand to pull the girl up, and her face softened: "You came out suddenly and there was no sound. I thought I encountered a ghost, so I subconsciously shot."

The girl was a little frightened when she heard the ghost, she waved her hand and said, "Sister, don't scare me, I... I'm scared."

"Go back if you're afraid, it's not safe for you to come out alone."

The girl's tears were not dry yet, after listening to Shen Qingqiu's words, she said cautiously: "It's pretty safe around the village during the daytime, you're fine."

Shen Qingqiu nodded, turned around and looked at the incomparably ironic word "Yi Pagoda" in front of him, and said, "Why is it unlucky?"

The girl's face froze, and her eyes were filled with fear and disgust.At this time, Shen Qingqiu caught a glimpse of the girl's feet from the corner of his eye. She was wearing a pair of worn-out cloth shoes, with a little bit of red mud overflowing from the edge of the sole. Shen Qingqiu narrowed his eyes and looked at the girl's face.

At this moment, the girl said: "This pagoda is used for abandoning babies in the village. If there are unwanted children, those who die of illness will be placed here."

Shen Qingqiu withdrew his gaze and stared at the tower deeply. What she saw inside just now were several small and excessive remains.

"Sick ones, unwanted ones, were they all alive when they were thrown here?" Shen Qingqiu said with some depression.

The girl nodded.

"It's still called Yi Tower, it's really shameless and inhuman." Shen Qingqiu was really angry, and cursed.

The girl behind her was staring at the tower, her eyes were like candles dancing in the dark, distorted and crazy.

But soon she turned her head to look at Shen Qingqiu, her expression calmed down, and she asked curiously, "Sister, why are you here?"

"Oh, I'll come out to see if there's food on the mountain. We can't afford food in your village. You should go home first. The family members should be in a hurry." Shen Qingqiu said calmly.

The girl nodded, and said sensiblely: "Sister, don't go far away, there are wolves in the mountains, and they can eat people."

Shen Qingqiu nodded, and when the other party was holding things and was about to leave, Shen Qingqiu suddenly asked: "Do you like hide-and-seek?"

The girl paused, then turned her head to look at Shen Qingqiu and smiled innocently, "I don't like playing hide-and-seek, hide and hide, it's boring if you can't find it, you'll die if you find it, and you can't hide anymore."

The girl left quickly, Shen Qingqiu watched her leave all the time, then turned around and entered the mountain without much hesitation.

Wuhui Village is built on the mountain, behind it there is a bamboo forest in addition to the dense jungle, where the most bamboo forests are turtledoves.

Shen Qingqiu heard the sound of the turtledove from a distance, she didn't have many tools in her hand, just the dagger, but she had good eyesight, and she was quick, precise and ruthless in her strikes.

Many animals hibernate in the cave during the day, so Shen Qingqiu only caught four turtledoves and one pheasant in the end.She didn't get too greedy, and quickly returned to the village.

The day was indeed peaceful, she did not encounter any danger, and it took about 40 minutes to return to the village.

Seeing her hanging heart, Xiao Muyu finally let go, and only then did she notice what Shen Qingqiu was carrying in his hand.

The turtledove was not big, but it was meat, and the pheasant was quite fat. No matter what, they didn't need to starve today.

There is a kitchen, there is no rice, salt, soy sauce, etc. Xiao Muyu cooks, Shen Qingqiu takes over and hurriedly continues to build the wall.

The surrounding teams were all excited, and soon some people went out.

When passing the team of four, the captain said, "I'll trade you for a turtledove, one hundred points."

He spoke crisply, staring at Xiao Muyu with a pair of star eyes, neither hiding nor dodging.

Xiao Muyu seemed to think about it for a while, then nodded.

"I have to trouble you to help me deal with it." The man continued.

"Okay, come and get it."

After the man came in, he didn't say much else, and said bluntly: "How to cooperate?"

Xiao Muyu handed him a turtledove, the man was stunned for a moment, and explained: "I'm just making an excuse, we..."

Xiao Muyu interrupted him, motioning him to take it, "I know, this is our sincerity. But, handle it yourself."

After hearing this, the man actually laughed and took it without any excuse.

"I want to exchange last night's information with you, as well as our mission. I believe you really want to know what this bloody handprint means." Xiao Muyu also opened the skylight to speak openly, explaining what she meant.

The man had a complicated expression, "You should know that our mission failed, why are you willing to exchange information with us? There are so many teams, according to the meaning of the system, it is impossible for so many people to pass the level, we will be the first to be cleared out, this is for you It's good. Besides, aren't you afraid of triggering something new, which will make you unlucky?"

Xiao Muyu smiled slightly, "Why is the dungeon involving multiple teams only competition and not cooperation? It is true that you failed in the mission, but you are still alive, and the system has not said that it will not be possible until the next time. Life and death are uncertain, so you There is a chance of a headwind comeback.

"Although we successfully completed last night's mission, there are still new missions, and we are not really safe, so why not cooperate? As for danger, there is no danger for no reason. Crisis is life at the same time. You say yes no?"

The man watched Xiao Muyu for a long time. In fact, he was observing several teams before today, and he was most impressed by Xiao Muyu and the others.Two women are leaders, which is rare in previous dungeons.

Whether it is the delicate and elegant woman in front of me, or the sharp and unbelievably beautiful woman before, they are all outstanding.

He admires his courage and decisiveness.He was surprised that he was picked on two teams so quickly.

Xiao Muyu has a convincing charm. When she shows kindness to others, few people can refuse, and men are the same.

Finally, he corrected his expression, stretched out his hand and said formally: "Gu Ye."

Xiao Muyu stretched out her hand, "Xiao Muyu."

Both of them are open-minded people, and they quickly explained what happened last night after sitting down.

"Did you answer the conversation yesterday after the two girls asked you to take her home?" Xiao Muyu wanted to confirm her speculation.

Gu Ye nodded, "Yes, we all speculated that they were killed by their biological fathers, plus the gossip mirrors on the gates of the village, so we think they want revenge.

We were all very nervous at the time, so we subconsciously said, where is her home?

As a result, they laughed wildly and said that they had found their home, so they sent someone to take them back, let us try, and took away the first teammate who responded. "

"Have you found a home?" Xiao Muyu murmured to herself.

"Yes, the pair of sisters directly dragged my teammate out. We tried to use cards, but the system failed, and we couldn't stop it at all."

Thinking of what happened last night, Gu Ye's expression became ugly, and his brows were tightly frowned.

"Did they say anything else? Or did they leave any message for you?" Xiao Muyu asked.

Gu Ye glanced at Xiao Muyu, Xiao Muyu understood, and repeated what happened last night, "We avoided talking about her going home, but just repeated what happened to them, and then they asked us to play hide-and-seek with them .If you can't find them, you have to die."

After speaking, she showed Gu Ye her task panel, which was already very sincere, and Gu Ye didn't hide it, and also showed Xiao Muyu the task panel.

Gu Ye has two tasks that are the same as theirs. Task 3: Help her sister stop her brother from crying. The activation has been completed, and the work points are [-] points.

Task 0: Find the little girl's family, the activation has been completed, and the work points are [-].

Task [-]: Activation failed;

Task [-]: Build the wall of Wuhui Village, which has been activated but not completed.

Task Five: Life or death is uncertain, and it is being activated.

"The one just displayed is still not activated." Gu Ye said excitedly with his eyes fixed.

Xiao Muyu was also taken aback, what does it mean to be activated.Soon there was a row of characters behind Undecided Life and Death.There is no way out in the poor mountains and rivers, and there is another village with dark willows and bright flowers.

After this line of words came out, it immediately changed to "Activating". After the activation was completed, task five was replaced with a new task.

Task [-]: The old man who shouldn't come back, the old man has gone, one difference and two lenient, each life is happy.People with blood and tears linger and refuse to leave. Once they come back, they will never have peace.Please find out who should not have returned, this is your last chance.

Xiao Muyu looked at the words "an old friend who shouldn't return" on it, and his face changed again and again.And Gu Ye looked at Xiao Muyu, his eyes were shining.

But Xiao Muyu was thinking about the above words in a mess in her mind.

What is an old friend who should not return?They have been ignoring this question all the time. The name of this dungeon is, the old friend who should not return, who should not return?

On the other hand, Gu Ye wondered again: "Why do you have unfinished tasks to be continued, but don't we have any?"

Xiao Muyu regained his composure and took a look, enlightened, and said in a daze: "I'm confused, we haven't announced what the customs clearance task is until now, so we told us early in the morning."

There are no more to come, because that's the final mission.

As soon as she finished speaking, the system voice sounded again, "Congratulations to Xiao Muyu's team, Gu Ye's team successfully activated the customs clearance task!"
