The villain also has spring

"What should I do?" Murong Yan asked.Obviously, she has seen that the boss has bad intentions.Holding a sharp knife in his hand, he blocked the door, most of which was to kill people.

"Let's tell the truth." Wu Chen had other important things to do and didn't want to cause trouble.

"What the husband said is very true." Chu Qiushen also disagreed with making troubles and revealing his identity in advance, "My husband wants to save people. It's just that she is hopeless, and she can't blame others."

Wu Chen nodded: "How about the stove?"

"Still refining." Murong replied.In fact, Wu Chen can learn all this information through the style plate.It's just that I'm in a low mood now, and I don't have time to care about him, so I asked casually.

"Okay." Wu Chen took a deep breath, got up and walked outside the house.The passage of time in the cave mansion is much slower than that in the Cliff City.Even if Wu Chen could delay for an hour, it would not help the matter.Still the same sentence, what should come will come sooner or later.

"Guest." Sensing Wu Chen's aura, the boss outside the bone door asked in a low voice.

"Yes." Wu Chen walked to the door, a small arm's length away.This is the bottom line of his inner security.

"Where is my sister?"

"Eh?" Wu Chen was taken aback, "Isn't she your wife?"

"Who said we are husband and wife?" the boss asked back.

"I think it is." Wu Chen scratched the other end: "Sister Ling, it's indistinguishable from Kui Niu Yuanshen..."

There was silence outside the door.After a long time, Wu Chen seemed to hear a heavy sigh. "So, thanks."

"Sorry, I couldn't help you." Wu Chen also sighed.

"No. Even if it didn't succeed, it gave her relief."

Hearing what the boss said, Wu Chen felt ashamed instead.

Before Wu Chen could reply, the boss had already walked out of the cave: "Come on, I'll drink with you."

"it is good."

Pushing the door open, a middle-aged man with a slightly downcast figure led the way, and Wu Chen followed him back to the cave hall.At this time, there are not many people in the store.The boss occupied Zhang Juzhong's stone table and signaled Wu Chen to sit opposite him.

Scooped a bowl of fragrant fruit wine from the pottery gai (container), filled the wine bowl in front of Wu Chenman, and the man in the middle raised his glass softly: "Please."

"Please." Wu Chen drank it with him.Early wines seem to have been fruit wines.It's not high in alcohol, and it's mixed with a lot of juice.Because of the color, it is also called color wine.In this era, five grains were not very popular, the ancestors were transitioning from hunting to farming, and the liquor of later generations had not yet been produced.

In this era, sitting on knees is not popular.The reason why the stone table is short is that it is close to the ground, and the ground baked by the firepit day and night is relatively warm.

How to sit casually.Wu Chen sat cross-legged, and the middle-aged man propped up one leg, half leaning and half sitting.

"The guests are here to recruit relatives?" The middle-aged man scooped up another bowl of wine for Wu Chen.

"Why do you all ask that?" I remember, the ghost who led the way before also asked.

"Because every time outsiders come, it's the time when the ghost mother invites relatives." The middle-aged man revealed a secret that wasn't too secret.

"Eh?" Wu Chen was taken aback.

Could it be that this is a pit?

A huge pit jointly set by the organ man and the ghost mother?In order to prevent the hunters from boarding the boat, all the hunters who shot loud arrows were finally thrown to the ghost mother?

"That's right. Since moving into Cliff City, I can't remember the exact number of days and months. Whenever the ghost mother recruits a relative, there will be strangers flying down in Cliff City. The number may vary. Recently, it has become less and less."

"No one comes here on weekdays?" Wu Chen asked again.

"No. There are many restrictions on the pass of Xiaoyu Mountain. Generally, it is difficult to enter and exit. Unless..."

"When the ghost mother gave birth." Wu Chen blurted out.

"Exactly." The middle-aged man scooped up another bowl of wine for himself.

Didn't it mean that the ghost mother gave birth in the morning and ate it at night?Besides, just after giving birth, you want to recruit relatives. Are you in a hurry to conceive?if it is like this……

"Are the customers wondering why the customers who come to the store only drink and don't eat?"

Wu Chen really didn't pay attention: "Why?"

"You already know the reason." The middle-aged man's expression darkened.

Wu Chen immediately realized: "The demon changes."

"That's right. If you eat the meat of a monster, you will become a monster. People who don't control their mouths are like...my sister."

"Is it okay to drink?" Wu Chen asked.

"It's not okay to drink too much. No more than three bowls a day, so that you can resist the erosion of evil spirits." The middle-aged man said.Obviously, the wine fermented from various fruit juices is much less toxic than monsters.

"Could it be that people in Cliff City drink alcohol every day?" Wu Chen asked.

"No." The middle-aged man shook his head: "Actually, we don't need to eat. In the cliff city, there is no age, no death, no life, no death. The reason why we want to drink and eat meat is just because of our appetite. "

"Desire to eat..." Wu Chen seemed to have grasped something.

"Exactly." The man in the middle continued: "I don't know how it is in other places, but in Cliff City, you must be able to hold back your appetite. If you can't help it, you will be haunted by evil spirits, and life is worse than death."

"Suppress your appetite..." Suddenly, Wu Chen blurted out: "Appetite!"

"That's right, it's the appetite." The middle-aged man nodded slowly: "In addition to eating, there are no taboos in the cliff city. However, you can't even eat, so what else is interesting?"

You are right.When people can't even guarantee the most basic survival, they really don't think about anything other than filling their stomachs!

Wu Chen nodded, and asked quickly, "How many floors are there in Cliff City?"

"Nature is a layer."

"How many layers are there in the crater?"

"It is said to be ten floors."

"Have you been to the next level?"

"No."

"Then, is it true that people on this level can't eat? But people on the next level can eat?"

"That's not clear."

Wu Chen nodded again: "Then, are there any married and children in Cliff City?"

"No."

"Is there a brothel?"

"of course not."

"Such as robbing civilian women, molesting women..."

"Of course it's impossible."

"Don't you want that?" Wu Chen tried to ask.

"We have nothing else to think about but to eat."

"So that's how it is..." Wu Chen finally understood what was going on with the ghost mother, what was going on with the volcano, and what was going on with the people here!

"Master?" Murong Yan also understood.

"That's right, the city dug around the crater has a total of ten or eleven floors. Each floor represents a kind of 'ghost'. The Cliff City is full of 'starving ghosts'. In other words, each floor Represents a kind of 'desire'. Desire is hard to fill. Desire. Desire is the devil, this sentence is very appropriate here." Wu Chen continued.

"So, my husband is saying that the ten sons born by the ghost mother represent the ten kinds of 'greed' in the world?" Chu Qiushen also understood.

"That's right. It's like the closer you go to the magma, the more dangerous it is. The level of desire is gradually deepened. It's like lust. Desire when you are full. Only when you are full will you think about sex. And the people here, fighting with their own appetites all day long, have already been exhausted, so how can they have the time to crack!" Wu Chen paused and said: "This volcano that has been sealed layer by layer, I guess, is a ghost. The mother's manifested greed. Whenever the greed accumulates too much and cannot be excreted, she will use the method of giving birth to relieve her own pain."

"But..." the sleepy Bei Gongqiu couldn't help asking: "Since the pain has been expelled, why do you want to eat it?"

"Greedy!" Everyone said in unison.

"Because she's so greedy, she can't help but eat the newborn baby." Xiling Jin let out a long breath.

However, why did these ancestors come here?

Don't worry about asking.Accompany the middle-aged man to drink the last bowl of wine first.Wu Chen asked calmly: "Dare to ask the shopkeeper, how did you and Lingmei come here?"

"That happened a long, long time ago." The middle-aged man subconsciously wanted to scoop up the wine, but he held the spoon firmly before it fell into the pot.With a self-deprecating smile, he gently put the bone spoon aside: "That year, a plague broke out in the wilderness..."

Without warning, an unprecedented plague broke out in the wilderness.That is demonization disease.There is no cure for this disease, and there is no cure for it.The plague spread rapidly and swept across the entire wilderness.Just when the ancestors were hopeless and waited for death with their eyes closed, there was the Holy Mother of Yushan who saved people with divine dew.The plagues that have passed will be scattered, and the plagues will disappear.In order to cure diseases and get rid of disasters, the ancestors scrambled to go to her, and followed her all the way to migrate, and finally arrived here.

The process is not complicated.However, Wu Chen had his own discovery.

First of all, there are actually traces of this unprecedented and unprecedented plague.According to his understanding, it should be the result of the accumulation of toxins over the years, passed down from generation to generation through the blood, and finally exploded.In the final analysis, it is still the fault of eating monsters.

What to eat to make up for.So these monsters finally grow on people.

But here comes the question, why does Yushan Ghost Mother want to save people?For what purpose, and for what psychology?

Is it true that, as the shopkeeper said, the ghost mother of Yushan in front of me was the Holy Mother of Yushan in the past?

Because of the treatment of the plague, he contracted a serious disease and deteriorated into today's ghost mother?

"No matter what, the ghost mother saved Dahuang." Murong Yan said to the point.

Wu Chen nodded: "Isolating all the patients in this volcano has indeed eliminated the plague for the wilderness. Only in this way can human beings be passed down to this day. In other words, the reason why monsters are becoming rarer and rarer is because they all grow in the wilderness. on people?"

Xiling Jin understood what Wu Chen was thinking, so he comforted him with words: "Master, it is indeed easy to be invaded by evil spirits. However, after roasting and eating, the evil spirits will fade away a lot. Besides, nowadays, the number of ancient veins is rare. , it is harmless for ordinary wild animals to eat."

"Wait!" Wu Chen suddenly thought of something: "By the way, the so-called monsters today are all evolved from ordinary beasts, right? It stands to reason that the ancient beasts have degenerated into ordinary beasts, haven't they?"

"Although this is the case, there are exceptions." Murong Yan's implication, isn't it all the ancient relics who accompany you every day?

"The speed at which beasts in the frozen forest evolve into monsters is accelerating..." Wu Chen frowned and said, "Could it be that the place where monsters gather...is there an air leak?"

"Just like the volcano in front of me?" Xiling Jin blurted out.

"It's possible!" Wu Chen's eyes lit up.
