Genshin Impact and Honkai Impact 3rd Entertainment Dice
Chapter 74 Investigation
“It just so happens that you are twins, you are two boys, and you have a younger sister to protect you.
If the sister is still a boy, either one of you will be removed, or both of you will go, leaving a brother, but unfortunately the fourth child is a sister. "
As Kong listened to everything in front of him, he instantly felt that his brain was about to go completely haywire.
Qiong didn't know why this happened at this time.
Aren't boys and girls the same?
“So the arrival of my younger sister has become a new problem.
My grandparents thought that if they could raise me with their previous methods, they would definitely be able to raise my sister. They tried to make the villagers suspect that they had killed the girl when she was born, so they only had two grandchildren.
At this time, the two of them thought of the news they had heard when chatting with those children before. There were indeed rumors in the village that grandparents did not like girls, so they would disappear if they gave birth to a girl.
This matter has spread like wildfire, even children know about it, so it is no longer just spread among adults, I'm afraid everyone in the whole village knows about it.
"That's why, when that day comes, my sister and I will show up. Even if the villagers find out there are two extra children, they won't be able to arrest you."
Kong and Qiong felt mixed emotions when they heard these words. Although they were not the biological brothers of the sister in front of them, they were indeed the sister's brothers in name only.
I couldn't help but have a really bad feeling in my heart.
"But obviously, they overlooked one thing. The food given by grandparents has always been the same amount as before, in order to prevent outsiders from finding out. There are two children in the family, but the food is only enough to fill one person's stomach for a few days.
But the food for those few days was only enough for one person. I raised my sister, and her appetite increased a lot. It was difficult for the two of us to survive those days with that little food. In fact, it was difficult to survive even with mice.
Rats may not have much food to eat nowadays. If it weren't for the things in the attic that the rats can gnaw on, maybe we wouldn't even have rats.
Because of this, my sister and I were already in poor health, and gradually, my body couldn’t hold on any longer.”
Kong and Qiong couldn't help but take a deep breath when they heard this. In this situation, it was really difficult to answer all of this.
Qiong had never experienced hunger, because he got on the train right after he stood up from the Black Tower space. The train did not lack their food, and they did not even experience hunger on the other planets they visited.
Even though Kong and his sister had experienced hunger during their travels, that was only temporary. But for the two sisters today, it is a lifelong thing.
When you're hungry, your mind is unclear, and your stomach keeps rolling up, as if it's grabbing the meat inside and twisting it to other directions, causing you to feel so uncomfortable.
Kong also thought of the time when Dragon Country was fleeing from famine. At that time, there was nothing to eat, and many people survived by eating soil, tree roots, tree bark, grass roots, etc. Some even exchanged their own children for cannibalism. At that time, it was good to have something to eat, but...
Many soldiers embarked on the Long March. There was no food in the places they went to, and it was really difficult for them to keep going all the way.
Kong couldn't help but clench his fists tightly at this moment. Qiong thought that if he didn't eat for a long time, maybe even with his special physique, he wouldn't be able to hold on!
The two little girls have persisted like this until now, but the elder sister just couldn't hold on any longer, so only the younger sister is left.
Kong now remembered what he had fed his sister at that time. In fact, the reason why his sister's mouth was sewn up by his grandparents was because they were afraid that her stomach would become bigger and it would reveal that there were other children in the family.
I felt really uncomfortable at that time, very uncomfortable. When I saw that scene, I really felt... Alas!
“So, I was afraid that my departure would scare my sister, so I sewed the doll for her and told her that if I didn’t get up for a long time, she had to live her life according to what I taught her.
And I will become that frog and be with you and look at you, and my sister also nodded at that time, and she seriously believed that I would really become a doll.
Then, after I left my body, when the banyan tree wanted to absorb me, I finally ran back and got into the doll, thus escaping the disaster.”
All the words began to be directed at the big banyan tree, and everything began to become different.
“That’s why I got to know a lot of things in the village.
My sister seemed to be recalling something, and also seemed to be going crazy.
"You know what? I've been worried about what you two would do if your sister was alone.
Grandpa and grandma have always said that we are your replacements, but... my sister is still young!
My sister doesn’t cry out even though her tongue was removed, and although I didn’t have my tongue removed, I rarely speak either.
Because I am the first child, even if my grandparents don’t like me, at least they left me here after seeing how old I was.”
When Kong and Qiong thought about what they had experienced with this identity, they realized that it was completely different from what the two sisters had experienced.
"At that time, I knew not to make any noise, but with the arrival of my sister, it was obvious that my grandparents had run out of patience, so they removed my sister's tongue and left her to me."
When the two thought about a baby who had just been born and had his tongue removed and was even thrown to a sister who had been living in a chaotic space, they suddenly felt really heartbroken for this child.
“When you came, I was there with my sister’s doll, watching you. We really envied you, but we can’t be like you.
The you I'm talking about are my real brothers. I can obviously tell that you are not them.
We really want to take a photo with our parents, grandpa and grandma. Can we stand there and take a photo together? "
At this time, Kong and Qiong remembered the photo and the eight blurry figures, as if confirmed.
But at this time, when they wanted to find the photo, they found that the photo seemed to have disappeared and did not exist.
Is it possible that the photo is the most important?
Then, they continued to hear the sound coming from the doll in front of them.
"This is our only wish. We really want to stand beside our parents, just once."
Kong and Qiong didn't know how to talk about this matter at this time. They also wanted to help, and they both cared about this matter very much.
And when the elder sister said that she wanted to stick with her parents just once, their hearts seemed to be pulled apart.
“When I first met my younger brothers, I really envied them, and even hated them like my younger sister. But when I saw how they treated my younger sister, I also thought of them as my younger brothers.
They have no idea about the current situation or what has happened, and they are kept in the dark.
So why should we put all the pressure on them this time? At that moment, I gave up, gave up the impulse to scare my brother at night. "
The moment Kong and Qiong looked at each other, they couldn't help but sigh that this place was really...
Then, Qiong and Kong took the doll back to their room and hid their sister and the doll. Then they were no longer as careless as before.
If they really want to get close to the ancestral hall and the big willow tree without being sucked in, then they must be highly focused.
So the two of them no longer thought about the previous situation at this time, but quickly prepared things for themselves. He placed a machine in the village, and then controlled the robot to go to the surrounding places.
He observed the condition of the ancestral hall and the big willow tree from a distance, and the village chief did not see them either.
At this time, they remembered the two brothers they had seen before, but the two brothers looked so similar, they might be twins.
Could it be that the twins are the real brothers of this family?
When Kong and Qiong thought about this, they couldn't help but become more concerned about this matter. Perhaps it was indeed as they thought.
But why does it disappear after appearing?
Kong and Qiong couldn't think of any possible situations for a moment.
At this moment, the video screen showed that the small robot had begun to gradually approach the ancestral hall and the big willow tree.
However, once they got within twenty meters of the big willow tree, the big willow tree in front of them began to shake its branches, as if trying to confirm something.
This made them think that the big willow tree might be a conscious creature. That is why there is worship in this village. Otherwise, such a thing would not have happened.
No matter which side it is, as long as it gets close to 20 meters, it will attract the action of the big willow tree. At this time, Qiong is wondering if this big banyan tree is equipped with radar?
No detector is this sensitive.
Kong observed the actions of his parents and grandparents, and after confirming that there was no one in the yard, he quickly climbed to the wall of the yard, and then chopped a one-meter-wide ditch on the ground.
Qiong looked around to see if there was anyone else, and then the other two people arrived near the soil and kept watching.
The area twenty meters around the willow tree belongs to the ancestral hall, and there are no villagers there.
When they looked at the cover that was constantly extending from the big willow tree underground, the two of them understood why the big willow tree within twenty meters was so sensitive.
Because its root system is huge and there are many villagers in the village, naturally the roots here don't really care about the activities of people and other things.
But there were no villagers near the ancestral hall, so the robot was easily discovered when it approached.
Kong was actually very curious, why did Qiong have so many robots?
"By the way, where did you get so many robots?"
"Because Xing and I shut down the little robots in the space station, and then, um... finally, uh, I asked for some."
Sora couldn't help but admire what Qiong and Xing had done.
Kong and Qiong saw a man outside staring at them from a distance. Perhaps he realized that the two people had discovered him, so he wanted to run away.
Then two people caught up with him and stopped him.
The man kept running away out of fear. After being stopped by them, he became even more frightened and curled up in the corner.
"I won't run away anymore. I won't run away anymore. Please don't hit me!"
The man looked terrified at this time, and was very afraid that the person in front of him would hit him.
"We won't beat you, we'll just ask you some questions."
The man also reacted at this time, and said in a trembling voice that he would let them ask and he would answer whatever he knew.
"Do you know about the selection of people for sacrifice in the village?"
The man also replied that he knew, and he knew very clearly that it was the two people in front of him. He just saw that Kong only slashed with his sword and created such a big gully on the ground, so he was afraid.
“How do people get selected in the village?”
"Burning incense. As long as two short and one long notes appear when a family burns incense, we can identify the family."
After learning about the rules for selecting people here, the two people couldn't help but look at the big willow tree in the center of the village. Perhaps Jing itself is the big willow tree, and whichever family the big willow tree chooses will have to give up two children.
"When did this big willow tree come into being? And when did the selection of people come into being?"
"I don't know about that, but the older generation said that the big willow tree has been there for a long time."
At this time, the person's meaning was very clear. Maybe the chosen person appeared together with the big willow tree, or maybe the big willow tree existed from the beginning.
If you say this, it would be very strange.
What role does the willow tree play in this village?
"When is the festival?"
"Tomorrow, tomorrow. Because we didn't catch you, the village chief bought a big pig. So you don't have to worry about it at all."
It is obvious that the village chief bought the pig because he didn't catch it. So why did he buy it? Maybe it was just to appease the big willow tree.
As for the big willow tree, from what we know now, the big willow tree must be in control of the village chief, or the village chief knows what's going on with the big willow tree.
"Has the village chief always been here? Or has he taken over the position of the previous village chief?"
"He's always there. Every time the village chief shows up, he's dressed like that, so..."
Qiong looked at the man's answer and then frowned.
"What I'm asking is when did the village chief take over? How many years has it been?"
After thinking about it carefully, the man shook his head.
"As far as I can remember, the village chief has been the village chief. I don't know when the village chief took over."
Kong and Qiong looked at each other at this time, and then let go of the villager in front of them. In fact, they still had many questions they wanted to ask, but they were not in a hurry for the time being.
