NPC Nine-Tailed Fox

Chapter 13
It would not be an exaggeration to say that the formation of the people in Linyang City was three floors inside and three floors outside. Anyone who saw it really wanted to hide.

Naihe and Lin Xiaolin were standing on the side of the road at this time, behind them was just a wall, there was nowhere to hide, and the front, left and right sides were surrounded by people, and it was too late to hide behind them.

The sun was still shining, and the crowd crowded around again, Zhi's eyes went blank, and he suddenly felt dizzy.The faces in front of him seem to overlap with a certain scene in memory...

In the drowsiness, there seemed to be a faint voice in my ear, as if someone had once yelled helplessly in a low voice: "...don't come here! Get out! Give me... get out..."

Who is screaming timidly and stubbornly?But even the voice seemed so isolated and helpless?
Suddenly, Zhi's pupils have lost focus, and his consciousness is not clear, but his body is hidden behind Lin Xiaolin like instinct.

Zhi is only five years old at this time, except for his baby's fat face, he is thin and petite. This hides more than half of his body. As long as he lowers his head, he completely avoids the eyes of the group of monkeys watching the zoo.

Lin Xiaolin watched Zhi's movement of oiling the soles of his feet, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and he muttered: "At this time, do you remember that you are young?"

She wanted to pull him out with one hand, but when she lowered her head, she just raised her hand to grab him, when she found that the little hand holding her sleeve was trembling slightly at this moment, and when she looked down, she saw the small half of Zhi Zhi exposed. His face was as pale as paper, with a little sweat on his forehead, and his eyelashes were trembling slightly, as if extremely disturbed.

Lin Xiaolin felt that a certain part of her heart softened all of a sudden.

Forget it, whatever her age, she still has to take responsibility as an older sister.

But she raised her head with great pride, and immediately retreated after seeing the group of people in front of her clearly. She only felt that her head was as big as a bucket, and her ears were buzzing.

Among the crowd, a big shirtless man stared at the two of them back and forth, shouting, "God, he really isn't from Linyang City!".

"Now we're out of the city!" The woman with the silver hairpin and blue silk twisted her husband's sleeves while gently wiping the unnecessary tears from the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief.

The swordsman who was stopped first crossed his arms and said: "When this girl stopped me just now, I felt that this person's face was tight, so I just said, she is not from Linyang City!"

At this time, the butcher, still holding the butcher knife in his hand, stood in his stall and shouted from a distance: "Let me tell you, why don't you ask something serious! What's going on outside now?"

"That's right! Does the court know about us? Are rescuers coming soon?"

"That's right, girls, where did you come from? Why did you come to our Linyang City?"

"Miss, just tell me which gate you came in from! I'll just go for a break, I've been trapped in Linyang City for two years, I don't believe I can't get out!"

balabala...

This group of people chattered, Lin Xiaolin felt dizzy, even if she wanted to answer, she didn't know where to start.

Fortunately, the people in Linyang City also knew that they couldn't figure out the reason for such a messy questioning, so they quickly pushed out a questioning leader.

What was pushed out was a white-faced scholar holding a scroll. From the mouths of those people, Lin Xiaolin knew that his surname was Zhang and that he was a scholar.

There was a representative who was good at communicating, and Zhang Xiucai asked, "Girl, Xiaosheng only asks you three things: [-]. Where are your siblings from? [-]. Why did you come to Linyang City? [-]. What is happening outside now?" What is the situation, is the imperial court aware of the plight of Linyang City?"

Lin Xiaolin said: "My surname is Lin, and this is my...brother. In fact, I don't know where I belong to. Before, our siblings traveled around and did not settle down."

She wasn't lying, because she was besieged when she met the three spirit foxes. She hadn't had time to find out where the foxes were from, and how could she know where she was from.Of course, she would never reveal her identity as a fox.It is not false to run around, and it is not false to have nowhere to settle down, although it is all because of hiding from hunting.As for Zhi, he was already younger than her, shouldn't he call her sister?
After hearing this, everyone thought to themselves: Running around, nowhere to settle?Isn't that wandering?Coupled with the fact that they don't know their own background, could it be that the big and the young are abandoned orphans?

Lin Xiaolin continued to answer, not noticing that everyone looked at her with pity, and said to herself: "Actually, we came to Linyang City by accident..."

So Lin Xiaolin told how she and Zhi came to Linyang City.It was nothing more than "running" to the cloudy bamboo forest, and saw a piece of charred land and a dark light. I was about to walk over and take a look, but I didn't expect the black wind to blow up. Then suddenly a suspension bridge appeared. I crossed the suspension bridge and arrived here.

Talking about the situation outside, Lin Xiaolin expressed helplessness: "I only know that this place should belong to the jurisdiction of the Flashy Continent. About human geography, uh, I know very little. I have been traveling in remote places in the past, let alone There is the existence of "Linyang City"... What about the movements of the imperial court? Hey, is there really such a thing as the imperial court?"

Why has she never heard of the existence of the "imperial court" in "You Shi"?
In fact, when she said that Linyang City belonged to the vanity continent and used the word "should", everyone no longer had any expectations.What kind of insight could they have expected from a girl who had "lost her parents," wandered from place to place, and made life difficult.What, and that little boy?Come on, that's a big kid, it's more than enough to take care of himself, "eating, drinking, and sleeping", and there is no expectation!

Lin Xiaolin didn't expect her remarks to attract pity and... contempt from everyone, but perhaps it was also because of this "low profile" that made everyone sympathize with her and Zhi Er after experiencing hope turned into disappointment. Come here, instead of being sad and angry, losing control and getting angry on the spot.

Seeing everyone sighing and about to disperse, the swordsman took a look at her, shook his head and said: "Hey, these two unlucky children, why don't they come at this time, and now they have to follow us Trapped in this Linyang City."

Trapped in this city?

Lin Xiaolin suddenly remembered that someone said "trapped for two years", and was shocked!

No, she only has 7 days left, how could she be trapped here!

Before everyone had gone far, they heard the vulgar swordsman behind him shout: "You idiot! You can't get out, you can't get out, don't waste your time! Hey!"

Because Lin Xiaolin and Zhi appeared suddenly, the city gate guard just closed the city gate and did not have time to lock it. At this moment, Lin Xiaolin wanted to use her hands and feet to open the city gate.

Zhang Xiucai, who was walking behind the crowd, heard the swordsman's shout, turned around and saw the girl in red dress who was talking to him before was pulling the city gate out of a crack with force, and then barely squeezed herself into the gap.

He shook his head, sighed, turned around and left.

In the first month of being trapped, there were not many people like her who wanted to rush out every day, only to bounce back with blood on their heads? ——
small theater:
Lin Xiaolin (angry): I don't know if I really want to quit the game!Bring Linyang City to trap me again!
Brewing wine: required by the plot.

Lin Xiaolin: Please tell me clearly what the plot requires, huh? !

Winemaking: spoilers shameful.

Lin Xiaolin (starting the raccoon fire): You like to pretend to be cold so much, does your mother know that?

Wine making: My mother doesn't know, but your stepmother does.

Lin Xiaolin (slightly stunned): Who is my stepmother?Why didn't I know I had a stepmother?
Winemaking: It's me.

Lin Xiaolin: ...

(after awhile)

Jiujiu: Actually, I am also your real mother.

Lin Xiaolin: Fuck off!

　The Little Theater originally wanted to put it in "The Author Has Something to Say", but unfortunately the layout was too messy and I couldn't separate the lines, so...
