After Harris and the others reconciled, Harris looked at Ulea and Xie Nin, who were in a strange atmosphere: "What's wrong with you?"

It looked like they were having a fight.

"It's nothing." Xie Ning turned his head away, not looking at Yuria, and brought up the business, "How is your inquiry going?"

The people synthesized the news they inquired, and it was roughly the same as what Mapel said, but in the eyes of some people, the relationship between Mapel and her husband was not very good.

"She's very strange." Harris frowned. "I asked. The other people who were captured by the dark wizard were all their families. But Mapel's husband died, and she was still alive."

So how did Mapel, who was thinner than her husband and seemed less likely to survive, survived?

Before going back to ask Mapel this question, Ulea and the others first went to the place where the villagers said the black wizards used to discard the corpses.

The corpse of the person whose heart was taken out by the black wizard was casually discarded there by the black wizard. Not many people in the village dared to go out casually.

Ulea and the others could smell the smell of rotting corpses from a distance. Now the weather is starting to heat up. The faces of corpses that were randomly discarded are rotten, and their faces have begun to be difficult to distinguish. There is a big empty hole in the middle of the chest. .

Ulea and the others endured the smell, and after inspection, they found that the body had no other organs except the heart.

However, all valuables on his body were looted.

Ulea took out water from the storage space to wash his hands, and wiped off the water stains with a towel. On the other side of his line of sight, Xie Nin's hands were wet, and he shook off the water on his hands.

Xie Ning frowned, having the illusion that his hands smelled like corpses.

A white towel was suddenly covered on his hands, Yulia covered his hands with the towel, and held Xie Ning's hands to dry them.

Xie Ning struggled a little, and was held by Yulea with a little force: "Quickly wipe it off."

Feeling that Xie Ning had lost his strength, Uriah carefully wiped off the water on his hands. When he raised his head, he saw the three of Harris looking at him and Xie Ning meaningfully.

On the way back, the three of Harris tacitly left Uriah and Xie Nin behind, and Hall even turned his head and gave Uriah a sneaky look.

Ulea looked at Xie Ning who was walking with his head down, and cleared his throat slightly.

"What I said earlier has no other meaning..." Yulia paid attention to Xie Ning's expression.

He frowned when he heard his own words, apparently recalling some unhappy memory.

Xie Nin turned his head and stared at Yulia: Then what do you mean?

"I just want to say that the two of you are actually not suitable..."

The rest of the words were interrupted by Xie Ning who looked puzzled: "Me and her?"

"Yeah." Ulea said, "Didn't she have a crush on you?"

Xie Ning retorted: "She has been looking at you before."

Suddenly realizing something, Xie Ning looked at Yulia: "You stood between us before, did you not like her looking at me?"

Yulea nodded awkwardly under his gaze: "Don't get me wrong, I just..." I really think the two of you are not suitable...

However, Xie Ning blocked his words directly: "I see."

Xie Ning looked at Yulea and promised earnestly, "Don't worry, I won't like her."

Xie Ning thought for a while, and added: "I won't like others either."

Yulia suppressed the joy in her heart after hearing Xie Ning's last words, and the corners of her mouth could not restrain her upward movement.

Because of her own selfishness, Ulea did not say the words "sooner or later you will have someone you like".

Xie Nin looked at Yulea expectantly: "What about you?"

I don't like other people.

What about you?

Ulea and Xie Nin looked at each other, their hearts beating like drums.

Xie Nin's words seemed to Ulea to say: I don't like other people, only you.

Ulea's words are faster than her brain, and before she can react, she subconsciously wants to reply "I also..." I only like you.

"I also...don't like other people." Ulea's words turned around, and Xie Nin was a little disappointed hearing his reply.

And Ulea looked at the other people walking away in front of him: "Let's go, they are going away soon."

Ulea and Xie Nin finally caught up with Harris and the others when they were approaching Mapel's house.

After Ulea and the others knocked on the door, Mapel quickly opened the door.

She held a feather duster in her hand, as if cleaning.

"Are you back?" Mapel wiped his hands and smiled subconsciously.

Harris looked at the already clean house, and subconsciously said, "This place is very clean, why do you keep cleaning it every day?"

Mapel looked helpless: "After all, I have nothing else to do at home every day."

Ulea's eyes fell on the ground, and the sock on Mapel's feet was exposed, with a piece of black dirt on it.

"By the way." Mapel seemed a little embarrassed, "What are you going to do next?"

"Wait for that black wizard to appear again." After all, they are still not sure where he lives, and now they can only wait for him to appear, and these are basically impossible to hide from other people, so Ulea and the others told Mapel directly .

Mapel bowed his head and replied, "That's it."

"I hope you can come back safely by then."

Uriah listened to her conversation with Harris without cutting in.

After they finished speaking, Ulea opened his mouth: "Your husband was taken away, why are you still alive?"

Ulea looked at Mapel: "We asked others, and the others were all taken away by that black wizard."

Mapel's eyes flashed, as if a little embarrassed.

"Since you have asked other people in the village, you should know that my husband often drinks after getting married..."

"What does this have to do with this?"

Mapel was a little embarrassed because he revealed his scars, and there was resentment towards his husband in his tone: "He likes to beat people after drinking." As his wife, Mapel is the victim.

"The black wizard came to the village, and everyone was scared. Wilbur drank again that night and wanted to hit me..." Mapel subconsciously clenched his hands, nails digging into his flesh, as if recalling that night.

"I'm scared..." Her voice trembled slightly, she lowered her head and buried her face in her palms, her tears dripped on the carpet, blurring dark traces.

"I hid in the cellar. He always beat me when he was drunk. I was afraid he might go crazy." Mapel choked up and said, "Then I heard him scream..."

"I'm just a woman, so I hid in the cellar and didn't dare to go out. When I went out the next day, the window was open and Wilbur was gone."

When Mapel was away, the five of Yulea discussed.

"Do you believe what she said?"

"I don't really believe it." Ulea remembered what she saw when she just entered the door. "She should go out today."

Herman knocked on the table: "Pay attention to her and see what she wants to do."

-

According to the law of the black wizard's previous appearance, he should appear in the next few days. In order not to miss him, Uriah and the others didn't sleep at all, and waited for his movement without sleeping.

However, after two nights of sleepless nights, the person Ulea and the others were waiting for never showed up.

With a big dark circle on his face, Harris yawned: "What's going on?"

"Why hasn't he come yet?"

Others are also a little puzzled. They haven't slept for a long time, and only occasionally close their eyes for a nap. Others are also a little sleepy.

Mapel took the tea and set down the cups in front of them.

Mapel was a little worried: "Hasn't the wizard appeared yet?"

"Correct."

She hesitated and said, "I might know where the wizard is..."

"You know?" Harris opened his eyes suddenly, and the sleepiness in his eyes was swept away. Mapel didn't say it a few days ago.

Seeing Ulea and the others looking at him suspiciously, Mapel swore: "What I said is true..."

Ulea looked at her coldly: "Since you knew, why didn't you say it before?"

"I'm just too scared." She grabbed the hem of her skirt anxiously, with timid eyes, "I don't want to die..."

"He used to come once every two or three days. I don't know if he hasn't shown up yet."

Mapel shook his head: "You don't know the route, I have to take you there, it's too dangerous."

What she meant was obvious. Anyway, the black wizard would appear every two or three days. If she took Uriah and the others to find the black wizard, it would be very dangerous to fight against herself as an ordinary person.

As for why she said it now, it was because the black wizard hadn't shown up for a few days, and she was a little panicked.

"Why do you know?"

"The day after Wilbur disappeared, I didn't know if he was really taken away, so I went to find his body..."

Mapel's eyes flickered: "The man who came to throw the body, I followed him when he went back..."

"He didn't find you?" Ulea was a little skeptical.

Mapel shook his head: "No."

"You point out the route, we'll go find the dark wizard tomorrow." Ulea put the map on the table and handed the pen to Mapel.

Mapel picked up the pen, thought for a while and changed his words: "I'll take you there..."

"you sure?"

Mapel clenched his pen, hesitant to speak: "I'm afraid that the dark wizard will appear when you leave..."

"In that case, let's leave early tomorrow morning."

Mapel looked at them: "I'm just trying to live as long as I can."

-

Although they decided to let Mapel lead the way, Ulea and the others didn't really believe her reasons, but she said that she knew the residence of the black wizard, which was probably true.

The next day, after the five of Youlea went out, Darlene's family, who looked outside through the window, had some guesses about their whereabouts.

Darlene ran downstairs in a hurry, opened the door, and called to Ulea and the others: "Wait!"

Ulea and the others stopped: "What's the matter?"

Darlene was holding five peace symbols in her hand, and Darlene, who was embarrassed to give them to Xie Ning, gave them the next best thing, and handed them to Yulea, who she was a little more familiar with.

Looking at this scene, Xie Ning felt that it was a bit of an eyesore, and moved his fingers, but in the end he was not dominated by the impulsive thoughts in his heart, and stood between Ulea and Darlene.

"This is a peace talisman I made." She said, "I hope you can come back safely."

Yuria thanked the others by handing out the peace charms.

Harris asked her, "Aren't you afraid that we won't be able to defeat that dark wizard?"

Darlene smiled: "I believe you will be successful!"

Ulea looked down at the peace talisman in her hand, and it was obvious that Darlene made it very carefully. There was also a piece of paper inside, with "Back in peace" written all over it in different handwriting.

Ulea looked back at the girl behind her, and sighed in her heart, Darlene is indeed a good girl, but why did she just like Xie Ning.
