Telling this cruel truth seems to have exhausted all the woman's energy.

Almost as soon as she finished the last word, her expression became dazed again, as if she had completely lost the motivation to continue living.

Since they were quite concerned about the "she" in the woman's mouth, Chi Yu and others asked a few circumstantial questions, but they only received the woman's wary eyes and a few meaningless nonsense.

Seeing that no more useful information could be obtained here, Chi Yu and others decided to leave immediately for the last "crime scene".

……

At the same time, somewhere in a house in Kiryu Village.

Sun Qingxiu sat on the sofa slightly awkwardly, unable to help but turn her eyes and observe her surroundings.

Even though she had seen the entire living room countless times in the past two hours, she would still be amazed when she saw the exquisite and gorgeous decoration again.

Next to her, a woman in a pure white cotton dress looked at her intently, with unconcealable compassion in her eyes.

"Don't worry, it won't be long before you can go back to your old life." The woman spoke slowly, her voice soft but firm.

Sun Qingxiu couldn't help turning her head to look at her, with obvious hope on her face: "Really?"

"Really." The woman nodded, "Everything... will be over soon."

"Twenty years... In these twenty years, I have been looking forward to this day all the time."

"Looking forward to the day when this place will be completely destroyed."

The woman's eyes were filled with murderous intent, "Now, I can finally realize my long-cherished wish..."

Sun Qingxiu listened intently, with an expression of fear mixed with uncontrollable yearning.

At this moment, a sound like corn jointing suddenly came from outside.

The woman in a white dress turned to look outside the door and saw a leafy branch snaking towards her. In her eyes, where the top of the branch curled up, there was a soul body that was so weak that it almost disappeared.

Her eyes suddenly became gloomy.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Sun Qingxiu seemed to have thought of something and asked: "Who... did it bring here again?"

"Liu Yuan." The woman's voice was a little cold.

Liu Yuan......

Sun Qingxiu naturally knew this name, and also knew that Liu Yuan, a "human", had died three months ago.

Thinking of Liu Yuan's current "identity" and taking another look at the unkind expression on the woman in the white dress, she obediently closed her mouth.

"First Tang Yu, then Liu Yuan... who on earth could hurt them like this."

The woman muttered to herself, and the expression on her face quickly changed from gloomy to contemptuous, "Forget it, no matter who comes, they can't affect my plan."

"If anyone dares to stop me... I will tear them into pieces bit by bit with my own hands."

As soon as the words fell, the woman's figure and the thick branch disappeared from Sun Qingxiu's eyes.

Sun Qingxiu stared blankly at the empty living room, unable to react for a while.

Just like that, I don’t know how long it took.

The sound of chaotic footsteps sounded from the outside world, pulling Sun Qingxiu's distracted mind back.

She woke up suddenly and subconsciously wanted to find a place to hide, but before she could stand up, Yue Luo Wuhen, who was walking at the front, had already stepped into the room.

The moment their eyes met, not only Sun Qingxiu turned pale with fright, but also Yue Luo Wuhen, who had always been calm, was stunned for a moment.

Since this dungeon is full of ghosts and supernatural events, he has become accustomed to the behavior pattern of either bumping into ghosts or about to bump into ghosts... When he first encounters a scene where the environment and NPCs are extremely normal, he is really uncomfortable with it.

Just as the two of them were looking at each other in silence, Chi Yu and the others who were lagging behind also walked in.

Seeing Sun Qingxiu, several players had no reaction, but Xu Zhengyuan's eyes widened in surprise.

"……mom?"

Chi Yu and others were startled by his sudden address.

Xiaoyao looked at the decent-looking and neatly dressed Xu Zhengyuan, then at the wrinkled middle-aged woman in coarse linen clothes in the living room, and said with a strange expression: "She...is your mother?"

Before Xu Zhengyuan could answer, a trembling female voice sounded in everyone's ears.

"Zheng, Zhengyuan..." Compared with the surprise when he first saw Yue Luo Wuhen, Sun Qingxiu's voice was already filled with fear.

If you look carefully... you can even see a trace of despair on her face that is engraved by time, "Are you... here to take me back?"

"I……"

Xu Zhengyuan opened his mouth, but couldn't even utter a complete word.

In the indescribable atmosphere, a green-robed figure stood up, looked at Sun Qingxiu and said, "He is the guide we hired, and he is not here specifically for you."

Perhaps seeing that his expression was sincere, Sun Qingxiu breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good... that's good."

Seeing his mother's relieved look, Xu Zhengyuan couldn't describe his feelings.

The green-robed figure glanced at Xu Zhengyuan, who was lost in thought, and then continued to say to Sun Qingxiu: "Since you are Xu Zhengyuan's mother, why are you here?"

"I can answer this." Xiaoyao Luan said first, "When we were at the Xu family, didn't I, Chi Yu, and Yue Luo go out to investigate?"

"We followed the direction of those branches and found an extremely simple bungalow outside, and found traces of human habitation inside."

"We guessed at that time that that was where Xu Zhengyuan's mother lived, but she was taken away before we arrived."

Upon hearing this, the green-robed green figure cast a confirming glance at Yue Luo Wuhen.

The latter nodded to him.

"So..." The green-robed figure touched the frame with her index finger, "The one who took away Xu Zhengyuan's mother was the monster who could control trees?"

"We think so too!" Xiaoyao clapped his hands randomly.

The green-robed figure ignored him, but stared at the helpless Sun Qingxiu: "Since we have already guessed this...can you tell us who the person who took you away was?"

"Or is it...'what'?"

Sun Qingxiu's expression instantly turned pale.

Under the oppressive gaze of the green-robed figure, she hesitated for a long time before saying solemnly: "She is not a bad person...she just...just like us...just wants to escape from here."

"So, please... please don't hurt her... okay?" Sun Qingxiu raised her head and looked at Chi Yu and others with pleading eyes.

"Who is she?" The green-robed green figure remained unmoved and continued to ask in a calm tone.

"Her name is... Yan Yunjin."
