Fantasy World Adventure

Chapter 41 The Burial Ground

The old man hid his whole life for the people on the bed, ignored everyone who was stunned, and continued to say: "Our family has been hunters for generations, and the hunting skills have been passed down from generation to generation. In my generation, my son's skills can be said to be The best in a hundred miles, our father and son rely on craftsmanship to eat, and live a good life. But if I can choose again, I would rather he does not have such a good craftsmanship, so this disaster may not happen .”

Speaking of his son, his tone was full of pride, but when he saw his son's current appearance, his expression became gloomy again.

"Can you tell us what happened?" Xue Yan asked softly.

"Alas!" The old man sighed.After a long time, he slowly said: "It was half a month ago. The city lord suddenly sent someone to find my son and said that the city lord took a fancy to his craftsmanship and wanted him to do an errand. If the thing was done well, the city lord was very grateful. Because I broke my ribs when I was hunting in my early years. Although I was cured later, the root of the disease still came down to me. I had chest pain every time the weather changed. In order to get more money for my treatment, my son agreed. Although I I didn’t agree that he had anything to do with the government, but I didn’t twist him in the end and let him go. He was gone for several days, and when I saw him again, he was lying unconscious at the door of my house with tattered clothes and injuries all over his body. Not awake.

I hired many doctors and spent all my family savings, but they couldn't do anything, saying that my son was hopeless.He has been in a coma, and I watched him get weaker and weaker day by day, and my heart felt like a knife was piercing.Just when I was completely desperate, an old Taoist suddenly came to my house. He barged in regardless of 21, looked at my son and muttered to himself, saying, no wonder there is so much yin here, so someone has been hit What kind of grass is poisonous? I didn't hear him clearly when he spoke quickly.I saw that he seemed to know my son's condition, so I begged him to save my son, and then he gave me a pill, saying that it could delay my life for a few days.Then he told me that only Youlan Baicao Pill can cure my son's poison. He said that in a few days someone will come to me asking for a bow, and then I can offer to exchange it with Youlan Baicao Pill.I was skeptical at the time, but he came within two days, so I believed the old man's words and asked him to exchange Youlan Baicao Pill.I have told you all I know, please give me the medicine. "The old man was about to kneel down.

Xueyan hurriedly stopped him, took out the Orchid Baicao Pill and handed it to his son, asking him to take it for his son, then waved to the others, and went outside with her to wait.

"Leng Ye Gu Xing, what do you think about this matter?" Xueyan asked as soon as she got outside the door.

"Obviously, the person who gave me the serial mission should be the same person as the old man that the old man said. He asked me to come to the old man to get a bow, obviously to let me help him find this Youlan Baicao Pill. But I can't get it I understand, why is he doing this? And who is this old man? Why does he know about Purple Jade Immortal Grass and Youlan Baicao Pill?" Hearing her ask herself, Leng Ye Guxing happily expressed his doubts.

"On the one hand, where did the city lord let the old man's son go? Why was there purple jade fairy grass there? Did the city lord know something and didn't want people to know, so he secretly organized people to go there? They are all problems." After Leng Ye Gu Xing finished speaking, Xing Chenyu also spoke.

"Also, the old man said that his son had been away with the government officials for several days. Although he was unconscious after returning, he finally came back. If the city owner doesn't want anyone to know what he wants to do, he should send someone Come, capture or kill him to prevent leaks. But the old man didn't mention it, did he forget to say it? Or the city lord didn't send someone at all? But if he didn't send someone, he was not afraid of the news being leaked, why did he Do you want to do it so secretly? Or does he not know that someone has come back alive?" Xing Chenjie also raised his own doubts.

The three of you basically spoke out what Xueyan was thinking, the only question she had more than them was whether the place the city lord sent people to was similar to Black Rock City and Chiyan City place?If so, why didn't he send him out as a gang task, but find someone to go by himself?Is it because time is too late?
There are a lot of doubts, but there are very few clues, so at present they can only wait for the old man's son to wake up and ask about the situation.

The sky was getting bright soon, and there was heavy dew in the morning in Qinglin City. Xueyan and the others stood outside, and their clothes quickly became wet with dew. The cold made them shiver but they didn't want to go inside.Xueyan felt that the clothes on her body were so cold that she couldn't help wrapping her arms around her body.

"Where's that cloak? Why don't you put it on?" Seeing his appearance, Ye Ye couldn't help frowning.

"In the package, it will get wet." Xue Yan shook her head, reluctant to use it, and also embarrassed to use it, after all, everyone is cold, but there is only one cloak.

"Take it out and put it on." Ye's tone was very strong, as if you had better be obedient or the consequences would be serious.

"But..." Xueyan still wanted to say something, but she didn't know what to say, so she had to look at the other three people, and then at Ye.

Ye seemed to know what she was thinking, and with his murderous eyes, he turned back all three pairs of eyes that were looking at this side, and then squinted his eyes to look at Xueyan.He obediently took out the cloak and put it on himself, and Ye stretched out his hand to help her tighten it before turning around and leaning against the wall without speaking.For his dominance, Xueyan remembers being very disgusted at the beginning, but now she is gradually getting used to it, and she doesn't know if this change is good or bad.

"Wake up! Wake up! He's awake!" After more than half an hour, the old man's excited voice finally came from the cabin.

As soon as Xueyan heard this, she led the crowd to push the door in, and saw the skeleton man lying on the bed, his eyes had been opened, but he was so weak that he might not even be able to make a sound.Xueyan thought for a while, raised her hand and used the "Water Healing Technique", a soft blue light shrouded his body, and his body returned to its original appearance at a speed visible to the naked eye.Seeing Brother Xingchen yelling amazing!
Xueyan didn't expect the effect of the water healing technique to be so good, and she was also surprised when she saw the young man who could already sit up by herself.

"Son, child, are you okay? Is there any discomfort? Tell Dad, don't hold back." The old man saw that the woman raised her hand, and his son's body completely returned to its original state. He was both excited and worried. , I'm afraid it's my own illusion.

"Father, I've made you worry. I'm really fine." The young man held his father's hand and said, although his voice was still weak, he was much more energetic.

"Thank you for saving me." After comforting his father, the young man raised his head and thanked the mysterious people in front of him.

"You're welcome, how are you feeling now? I have a few questions I want to ask you." Xue Yan came to him and asked softly.

"It doesn't matter to me anymore, if you have any questions, just ask, as long as I know, I will tell you."

"Well, I want to know what the Lord of Qinglin City is looking for you for?" Xue Yan asked directly what she wanted to know most without going around the bush.

"This..." The young man obviously hesitated, apparently he had been told not to reveal the matter.

Xueyan didn't hurry to urge him, but just looked at him quietly.It took him a long time to make up his mind. He looked up at Xueyan and said, "Originally, the city lord didn't let us reveal this matter, but I believe you will keep it a secret for me. We have to start from the beginning. That day The lord of the city sent someone to find me and said that he knew that I was the best hunter nearby, so he wanted me to do one thing, and said that it was very simple, just to find the way, which is true for me, a hunter who has been hunting in the mountains for a long time. It's not difficult, he also said that after the task is completed, the Lord City Lord will definitely reward you, so I agreed to him."

Speaking of this, he coughed a few times, and the old man hurriedly brought him a bowl of water for him to drink.After hearing what he said, Xueyan thought for a while and thought that there was nothing wrong with the old man, and waited for him to feel better before signaling him to continue talking.

"Later, I left with that person, but he didn't take me to the city lord's mansion, but took me to an abandoned house near the outskirts of the city, where there were a few people who were also brought by the city lord Weapons. I had a bad feeling at the time. If it was something upright, why did the city lord make such a cover-up? I wanted to leave, but the person who led me stopped me by the people waiting there , and threatened me that if I dared to leave, the city lord would send someone to kill my father. I was afraid they could do what they said, so I stayed.

After waiting there for two days, the man brought a few more people one after another, and he told us to leave on the third day.We left the city and headed south. After walking for a long time, we came to a strange wasteland, which was full of weeds. There was nothing wrong with it, but it gave people a gloomy and cool feeling.The person who took the lead came to something that looked like a stone tablet. After placing a strange thing on it, a hole appeared in the ground, and a section of steps extended into it.He asked me to go to the front to explore the way, and he led the others to go in after receiving my signal.

Although I was not reconciled, they were so numerous that I couldn't escape at all, so I had to walk down the steps with a torch.When I got to the bottom, I saw some strange-looking grass growing all over the cave. The leaves of the grass were very sharp, and I scratched my leg after only a few steps.So I didn't go any further, but waited in place for a while before walking back along the steps.The person in the lead saw that I had come back safely, so he just asked a few words and led the people down, letting me follow at the end of the team, and I followed them to watch them cut the grass on the ground with their swords to make a way.

It didn't take long for my legs to feel a little uncomfortable, as if they were a little stiff, and when I reached out and touched the whole leg, it turned out to be icy cold.I was so freaked out that I stopped and didn't go any further, which just saved my life.Not long after I stopped, suddenly one after another bone hands broke out from the ground and grabbed their feet firmly. No matter how they struggled, if they broke free, more bone hands would grab them , making them unable to move.I was at a loss, and seeing a bone hand reaching out to me, I thought of running desperately towards the exit.

Screams kept coming from behind me, and I didn't dare to stop for fear of being caught by those skeletal hands. I didn't dare to look back until I was on the steps.Those are no longer bone hands, but skeletons.They pounced on those people with bared teeth and claws, tearing off their flesh and blood piece by piece, and then stuffed them into their mouths with only teeth.I didn't dare to look down any further, so I just ran home as hard as I could, and finally managed to save my life! "The young man was trembling and finally finished telling the whole story.

According to his words, Xueyan guessed that it might be the same place as the other two mission dungeons she had been to.It's just why the purple jade fairy grass grows there?

"By the way, if you are interested in this matter, this thing may be able to help you." The young man said, taking out a long black thing from his arms and handing it to Xue Yan.

Xueyan took it suspiciously and took a closer look, only to find that it was a small coffin!The coffin was very delicately made, but it was not made of wood, it was some kind of metal, and there were three words engraved on the lid of the coffin: Burial Ground.

"Senior Sister, what is it?" Others raised their heads curiously.

Xueyan ignored them, but shook the coffin model in the young man's hand and asked, "What is this for?"

"This is the key to open that place. I took it away after I escaped. If you want to go there, this will be useful to you."

"That's right." Xue Yan nodded thoughtfully.Then he said to the old man and his son: "You can't stay in Qinglin City any longer. If the city lord finds out, both of you will surely die. So I think you should leave as soon as possible."

"Well, when I can act, I will take my father away." The young man nodded.

Now that all the questions were asked, Xue Yan asked Leng Ye Guxing to take his mission items, and the group left.
