Chapter 104 Curse

"Could it be that Ah Zhi threw the broken finger bone into the river?" Ren Ran felt that the possibility of this hypothesis was very high, but he didn't understand why she did it.

"It seems that this river should be connected to the one in the ancient town." Xie Wenyi said.

They didn't stay any longer, they turned around and planned to go back to the ancient town, there was one more place they had to go.However, at this moment, the bushes not far ahead shook.

Someone is there.

Just as Ren Ran wanted to go forward, Xie Wenyi stopped him with a look. They stayed in place for a few minutes, and when they saw no movement, they walked forward. When passing through the bushes, they didn't see anyone.

Back in the ancient town, they found Fengpo's home.

Although it is backward and old here, every household is basically clean, but Fengpo's residence is much more messy. Talismans and seals, joss sticks, paper figurines and other things used for sacrifices.

Before they came here, they bought some rice in advance, and Ren Ran put the rice in the corner, where there was another bulging bag of rice.

Unexpectedly, Feng Po's ears moved, and said: "It's rice, right? Although I can't see, my ears are very good. You all like to give Feng Po rice."

"If it wasn't for your mother-in-law saying that you can't see it, I wouldn't be able to see it at all." Ren Ran said.

He felt that he couldn't come here empty-handed, so he bought a big bag of rice, but he didn't expect Feng Po to be blind.Her actions are too agile, not like an elderly person at all.

"I have been blind since I was a child, but I never get lost in this ancient town. You are people who live in the school and come to investigate, right." Feng Po said.

"Well, mother-in-law, how do you know?"

"Smell, I am familiar with the smell of everyone here, your smell is different, do you want to ask me about those who died."

This Fengpo is quite powerful.

"Yes, three people died in a row, and they all said it was an emergency." Xie Wenyi said.

"You don't believe it?"

"I don't really believe it. Although the symptoms are very similar to an emergency, it's a coincidence. If it is an infectious disease, the villagers seem to have no awareness of prevention." Ren Ran said.

"It's a curse, a curse for this ancient town to die."

There was a brief silence, Feng Po's hollow voice seemed to come from the deepest part of hell.

"The people in the ancient town are self-sufficient. They will not leave here for generations, and they will not be allowed to leave. They live in harmony, without disputes, and without being disturbed. Everyone must abide by the only rule in the village. As long as they are women, Once the husband dies of illness, he cannot remarry for life."

"So, there is a woman who broke this rule?" Ren Ran remembered what Cuihua said, "That person is a scourge".

"No, as I said just now, no one can break this rule."

"Oh, so this person is dead?"

Feng Po didn't answer again, paused, and said in a hoarse voice: "Ah Liu is stupid and timid, he must have seen something wrong, but insisted that they just got emergency treatment, fortunately, he is as timid as a mouse." I still choose the foolproof method, those talisman papers can protect these dead people, and there will be no further complications. Well, for the sake of rice, I have said enough."

Feng Po obviously issued an order to evict guests, Xie Wenyi looked at the two bags of rice on the ground, and said nothing.

They walked back to the school along the path, and it was time for the students to have lunch. They planned to find a way to get something out of Azhi, and bought a candy cake at the small shop along the way.

This small shop sells some homemade snacks. Usually, when the children are hungry after class, they will buy a portion and share it. At this time yesterday, they happened to pass by and saw Azhi looking enviously at those who bought sweets. child eating cake.

Next to the small shop is a shop that sells straw sandals, bamboo baskets, etc. On the first day they came, Uncle Liu introduced to them that this shop is a craftsman named Uncle Fourth.

Today, the store is closed, but the sound of people walking can be heard inside.

The woman selling sugar cakes saw her, she poked her head and said, "Are you going to buy something from my fourth uncle? It's a pity that my fourth uncle passed away due to a sudden illness last night. You can come back tomorrow, and my fourth aunt's craftsmanship is also pretty good."

The woman shrank back, and said: "There are too many people who are sick recently, shouldn't the village chief call everyone to have a meeting to see what can be done, what if the disease is passed on to others, really I feel sorry for Fourth Aunt and Ah Hua."

It turns out that the fourth uncle's son is Ah Zhi's friend Ah Hua.

When they returned to school, the students happened to be eating in the cafeteria, talking and laughing in small groups and with good friends, only Azhi sat alone on the steps, drawing circles on the ground with a small branch.

Ren Ran walked over, as if coaxing Li Yin, said with a smile: "Azhi."

Azhi looked up and saw a stranger, and continued to bow his head without speaking.

If Ren Ran hadn't seen the way she spoke, he might really have thought she was a copycat version of Li Yin.

"Why don't you have dinner with your classmates, I think the dishes are good today, including fish." Ren Ran Xie Wenyi said.

Ah Zhi raised her head again, pondered for a while, then held her chin and said, "You guys are so good-looking. I have never seen anyone as good-looking as you, except Mr. Mo."

"The good-looking brother brought you candy cakes." Ren Ren handed over the oily paper bag.

Azhi didn't reach out to take it immediately, but asked cautiously: "You can't take other people's things for nothing, but Azhi has nothing to give to brother."

"That's right, you can't take other people's things, but you can take things from Brother Good-looking." Xie Wenyi said.

Ren Ran had an expression of "You're really good at it".

"That's right." A Zhi felt that the logic was very common, and happily took it and ate it, then looked back at the students who were still eating, "I don't like them, they don't like me, and I don't like to eat either." Fish, although this fish was caught by Uncle Wu from the river."

"Azhi, have you ever heard the saying that children can't be picky eaters?" Ren Ran and Xie Wenyi sat down on her left and right.

"No." Azhi replied so smoothly.

"..." OK.

"Children can't be picky eaters. If you eat more fish, you will be smarter than the children inside." Ren Ran continued to brainwash.

"Mr. Fu doesn't eat fish, but he is a teacher. He knows a lot of characters and can read a lot of books." Ah Zhi said.

"..." Brainwashing failed.

Xie Wenyi laughed a few times, and asked seriously: "Aren't you good friends with a boy named Ahua?"

"Yes, he and I are good friends, but if Ah Hua didn't come today, I have no one to talk to." Ah Zhi had already finished eating the candy.

"I heard that his father passed away. Last night, I heard crying, so loud." Xie Wenyi said.

"Brother heard it too? I said that someone was crying, but the other children said no, and no one mentioned it, but I really heard it. Didn't I say that good children should not lie?" Ah Zhi wiped her oily hands on the hem of her clothes, and said: "Mr. Fu once said that people have life and death, and each has its own place to go. Everyone will go decently, say goodbye to relatives, and hold ceremonies, but I never I haven't seen these before, where did those people go?"

These funerals were all when the children would not see them, and even except for a few coffin bearers and the sixth uncle, the others only knew that someone had died the next day. Everyone in this place was very concerned about this matter The attitude is to avoid talking about it, or it should be said to be fearful.Xie Wenyi just touched her head and didn't answer her.

"Azhi, where do you usually go to play?" Ren Ran asked.

This time, the simple-minded Ah Zhi thought for a while before answering: "I'm not going anywhere, I'll go home after class."

Azhi stood up, smoothed the wrinkled clothes, and waved to them with a smile: "Goodbye, handsome brother, you are the second person to invite Azhi to eat sweets, thank you."

Ah Zhi must know something, her strange actions by the river, but she kept silent, must have an indissoluble connection with this dungeon.

Today, the player's dinner is also fish. The thick white fish soup is full of fragrance. Even though the players are troubled by these clues, everyone still drinks a small bowl of soup made from wild fish, which is very delicious. .

It's a pity that Ren Ran, when Xie Wenyi went to the cafeteria, the fish soup was all eaten by the first few players who ate, and they just ate some leftovers and went back to the room.

When it was their turn to take a good bath, it was already very late, Pan Sheng was still reading, and Ren Ran really admired his strong attachment and perseverance to number one.

Even when "Smelly Shameless" sent a text message, Pan Sheng didn't stop reading.

[Dear players, the elegant, charming and charming game announcer is online like a ghost in the middle of the night! No.90 Wanted Order No. 10, the number of participating players is 10, and the current number of survivors is 80. The ancient town with fresh air, hospitable and enthusiastic villagers, cute children, delicious food, please enjoy the little cuties, Boji.Player Ren Ran, currently ahead of [-]% of the players, keep going. 】

In the early hours of the morning, another loud crying pierced the silence of the night. This time the crying lasted for a while, and it seemed to be the voice of a child.

Ren Ran and Xie Wenyi got up at the same time, Pan Sheng was shivering under the quilt, they opened the door, but saw Chun Sheng's room opposite was still brightly lit, his movements were reflected on the paper window, and he was still preparing lessons.

This time, no one left the yard, and the night returned to calm.

For breakfast the next day, Chunsheng prepared fish porridge and pancakes, and the players ate mechanically, and everyone looked unhappy.

It's the fourth day, and there hasn't been too much breakthrough progress. Ren Ran thought that his pick has changed from [-] to [-]. Could it be that other players have obtained a very important clue?

They had breakfast and went out, and saw A Zhi at the door again, she was still alone, looking very lonely and pitiful.

"Azhi, do you still remember us?" Ren Ran stepped up and asked.

"Remember, the good-looking brother who gave me candy cakes yesterday." A Zhi said.

"Are you alone today? Where's Ah Hua?"

"He..." Azhi signaled Ren Ran to squat down, and whispered in his ear: "Brother, did you hear crying last night?"

"Well, yes."

"I know it's Ah Hua, it's him who is crying." Azhi nodded, and said with certainty: "I went to the village head grandpa again on the way here, and asked him how Ah Hua was, and grandpa said he was fine. , but I won’t come to class recently.”

"What's the matter? What's the matter?" Chunsheng just came out of the gate. He saw Azhi, touched her head, and said, "Azhi is the most obedient, and she works hard in her studies. She can even recite poems. Let's go, Ah Zhi, I'll take you in."

"Thank you Wenyi." Ren Ran said.

"Huh?" Xie Wenyi said.

"What role do you think Fu Chunsheng played in this dungeon?"

This warm and kind person with a smile like a spring breeze arranges their daily life in an orderly manner every day. As the only scholar in the ancient town, what is he thinking?
