The journey was safe and sound, Qin Dongwan didn't dare to look at the maidservant's face, but only observed the changes around her, feeling that there was always something great hidden in this dreamlike Jiangnan water town.From time to time, shadows of tile-roofed rooms nestled in the shadowy mist would appear in front of the eyes, and then disappear without a trace.

The maid's destination was a house, which looked quite big, and there were several people in straw hats and coir raincoats cleaning the ground at the door.Everything was quiet, only when the little maid brought her over, she saw a few people standing at the door talking in low voices, and one could tell from their expressions that they were players, Qin Dongwan's heart beat faster, The mouth did not speak.

"Miss Qin, please wait here, and go in together when everyone is together. Madam Xi Jing, all guests, please keep your voice down, so as not to disturb Madam."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked away, her footsteps were frivolous without making any movement, as if she was floating on the stagnant water on the ground.Qin Dongwan only felt a chill all over his body, perhaps because of the thin clothes he wore.She turned her head and saw several people dressed similarly to her had gathered together, but she didn't know anyone yet.

"This time the copy is ancient, why is it like a documentary..."

"I just saw water tofu and clay dolls on the street. Why does it feel like Liangxi here?"

"What is Liangxi?"

"Haven't you watched Fortress Besieged?"

Seeing that the maid who led the way had left, the people over there started discussing with each other, and at the same time wrapped their clothes tightly in the wind and rain and shivered.Qin Dongwan only remembered after hearing what this person said. The biggest feature of Liangxi Ancient City is the clay figurine craftsmanship. The clay dolls made of black mud have full shapes and smooth lines. It is a traditional folk art that has been passed down for thousands of years.

She had seen many clay dolls in front of the shops along the way before, all of which were brightly colored, but it was a bit weird to open her eyes and smile in the middle of the road in the rain.Qin Dongwan secretly remembered this, and found that the few people here seemed to know each other except two of the men who formed a team.

One of the girls, who was particularly talkative and seemed not too timid, introduced herself as Yunzhi. After seeing Qin Dongwan, she didn't express much, but when Lin Fengque was also picked up, her eyes lit up.In the dungeon, perhaps in order to prevent too much disobedience, the men were also replaced with long hair. Lin Fengque was born gentle and handsome, and although he was not impressed by Qin Dongwan who was bent into a mosquito coil, Lin Fengque was wearing a green shirt. But it aroused the surprise of the other girls present.

Yunzhi abandoned the person she had chatted with just now, and immediately went to Lin Fengque's side and whispered something, with a twisted expression, Qin Dongwan vaguely heard the word "team".After a while, the little girl politely declined, but she was still determined, wandering around Lin Fengque like a fly.

Lin Fengque quietly cast a look for help, Qin Dongwan remembered the power of his own vinegar jar, and stood still like a mountain.So Yunzhi didn't stand up until everyone had arrived, and when she saw the little maid coming, she showed a little fearful expression.

Luo Shu is also wearing a long skirt, but it is a chest-length style, which makes her look a little taller.After she was brought, she walked to Qin Dongwan's side and held hands with her undisguisedly. Both of their hands were a little cold, but they didn't let go.

"Guests, our eldest lady's marriage will be completed in four days. Please stay in Yue's house for a few days. The Yue's house is big, and one guest room can accommodate two people. The rest will be troublesome to squeeze in." , If you feel uncomfortable living here, you can come to the servant girl, and the servant girl is called Qiaoer."

The servant girl is still young enough to be in charge of affairs, and after bowing and saluting, she pushed open the vermilion-painted door and walked in with the players.Qin Dongwan noticed that the number of men and women was unevenly distributed. There were five women and six men, so one woman had to be squeezed together.

As for living uncomfortable?

They are all people who have reached the sixth level, and no one is so stupid as to go to the NPC to die because it is uncomfortable to live in.

The gardens and small buildings in the south of the Yangtze River are patchwork, the nine-turn corridor has winding paths leading to secluded places, and the koi fish swim and flick their tails in the lake, which seems to be full of vitality.The verdant vegetation was shrouded in light smoke and rain, and the whole courtyard was obviously not small, but it always felt extraordinarily quiet.

Qin Dongwan quietly memorized the terrain while walking, until he turned around a long vermilion wall and arrived at the place where they lived.The men lived in the front yard, while the women lived in the back yard. She and Luo Shu chose a smaller room in the East Wing, and the West Wing had a bit more space, leaving it for the three women who would squeeze together.

"Remember to come to the front hall for lunch at noon. Everyone knows that there are no rules in our small family, but remember not to offend the noble master. There is nothing to do in the morning, and guests can play and watch in the backyard." The servant girl Qiao'er said, "The flowers in our backyard are blooming beautifully."

After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, leaving time for the players to move freely.

They didn't bring anything with them, and the maid who cleaned the room had tidied up well. They simply went in and walked around, and then came out together.

Apart from Yunzhi who was attached to Lin Fengque before, there were two other girls who lived in the West Wing. The one in a purple dress introduced herself as Lilac, and the one with long hair was Xiaoliu.After all, there is such a thing as a forum in the game, which requires a real-name system. It is understandable that some people do not want to report their real names, but neither Qin Dongwan nor Luo Shu has that habit.

"Do you know what flowers are blooming this season?" Yunzhi took out an umbrella and opened it, whispering.

Maybe it's because of the rain, the wind is a bit cold, the season is warm and cold but everything is recovering, it looks like it should be March and April.There are a lot of flowers blooming in spring, Qin Dongwan randomly reported a few to answer her, and then took an umbrella and walked into the rain with Luo Shu.

Luo Shu's hair color doesn't look like it was dyed, and her eyes are also a rare purple. Although this is just a reference to the fictional world of reality, it is the first time Qin Dongwan has seen non-black eyes so far.Luo Shu's hair was also forcibly turned black by the dungeon, and the original spiral curl became straight hair. Even if the whole face was full of coldness, it was less frozen and more soft.

Qin Dongwan sniffed lightly, and the aroma filled his nostrils.As she walked, she subconsciously observed the environment of the dungeon. There was nothing wrong with the green bricks and white tiles in the corridor and the vermilion beauties, but the windows on this side were very strange. They were all made of paper and were wet by the raindrops slanting in. To translucent, some have been broken.The paper was red paper, thin, and the color dripped down from the rain, revealing the soiled whiteness.

When they were in the East Wing before, they just simply looked at the windows and didn't pay attention to the windows. Only after they came out now did they realize that as long as they saw the windows in the whole yard, they must be covered with paper.Fang Fei in the courtyard was knocked down by the rain, and the petals were messy all over the ground. The most eye-catching is a huge old pagoda tree, standing in the center of the courtyard.

Ding Xiang, who was walking in the front, stopped, her face turned pale obviously.

Although it is a feudal superstition that locust trees attract ghosts, it is not in the real world after all.Some ghosts and gods that have been handed down by the ancestors for thousands of years, even if they have no basis and are based on guesswork, have been passed down to this day, but some people still believe in them, not to mention that they were very taboo in ancient times.And the Yue Zhai in front of him actually planted pagoda trees in the middle of the yard in a majestic way, as if they were afraid that ghosts would not come...

The most important thing is that there is a thin little girl standing under the locust tree, holding a handkerchief in her hand and wearing a straw hat on her head, picking up locust trees that have been knocked down by the rain on the ground.Her complexion was a little pale, she pushed aside the grass clippings little by little with her small hands, and carefully put the Sophora japonica flower on her veil, and was startled when she found someone coming.

Instinctively, she carried the kerchief full of Sophora japonica flowers behind her back, and stared at the few people in front with her black eyes, which made people feel a little scared.

"Little girl, what are you doing here?"

After getting Luo Shu's affirmation, Qin Dongwan stepped forward and knelt down to look at the little girl, trying to make his smile softer.The little girl pursed her lips, and took a step back cautiously. Qin Dongwan was not in a hurry, but asked questions in a softer voice.

"Picking Sophora japonica." She looked at Qin Dongwan and whispered, "Pick Sophora japonica for mother... My aunt will be cured, and my aunt will be cured after eating Sophora japonica, so she can play with my daughter."

"My aunt is sick, why don't you ask the doctor to come back and have a look?"

Qin Dongwan's voice was as gentle as the gurgling water of a small river in the south of the Yangtze River, which made people feel comfortable and friendly.The little girl was really defeated by her gentle offensive, and after a moment of hesitation, she said:

"My mother didn't let the doctor come, saying that the doctor couldn't cure my aunt. But my aunt was very sad. My aunt wanted my aunt to play on the ground, but my aunt said it hurt." She pointed to her left chest, "My aunt hurts here."

Just when Qin Dongwan was about to continue asking, the little girl rolled her eyes and refused to answer anything, only saying that she would be discovered if she didn't go back, and ran out with her handkerchief like a wind blowing on her feet.Others didn't dare to approach the locust tree, only Luo Shu went up to touch the trunk with her hand, the bark was rough, but she couldn't figure out why.

The long-haired girl Xiaoliu saw that she was fine after touching the locust tree, so she went up to touch it with her umbrella in hand, clenched her white fingers into fists and tapped lightly on it, and said softly after a while:

"It should be hollow."

Everyone's eyes turned to Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu blushed slightly when she saw this, and quickly explained:

"When I was in school in my hometown, there were afforestation activities there. I often went to the fields with my grandfather, so I knew how to identify these trees. But I'm not 100% sure, it should... be empty."

"Isn't the tree hollow and basically dead? How can this locust tree still bloom?"

Yunzhi, the girl who had been bluffing before, said in a daze.

This dungeon seems to have a lot of weird things at present, especially since it is basically the first time that everyone encounters an ancient dungeon, and it is not like the usual routines of horror movies such as hospitals, schools, orphanages, etc. The cause and effect of those events are all related There are traces to follow.At present, it seems that there should be no taboo to touch the locust tree. Qin Dongwan noticed that there was a handful of mud under the loess that was out of place in the loess, and it was a little black, so he went forward and pressed it lightly with his fingertips.

The stiff and slender bones were clearly imprinted on the fingertips. She froze all over, and when her fingers suddenly retracted, a bit of soil that was not completely buried was picked up. in front of everyone's eyes.Qin Dongwan's fingers felt cold, but Luo Shu quickly grabbed them tightly, his thin fingers pointing straight at the sky like dead branches, that gesture seemed to be accusing something of injustice.

"Who, who buried the severed hand here!?"

Ding Xiang was so frightened that she could speak incoherently, she tried to grab Yun Zhi's arm in a panic but was pushed away, and quickly pulled Xiao Liu to stand aside.The flesh on the severed hand was not gradually rotted and eaten because it had been dead for many years, but it could be clearly seen that it was scraped off bit by bit with something, so it looked even more terrifying.The knife marks densely covered on the bones are clearly visible, and there are sparse shreds of meat.

Killing is nothing more than nodding, even if it is a struggle in the courtyard, how much do you hate and poison a person before you can kill him with Ling Chi's means.Qin Dongwan couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling, but he also hugged Luo Shu into his arms. The body temperature of the two of them was pressed against each other, so that the chill brought by them could be dispelled a little.

"This may be someone else's family matter, it's better to bury it back?"

Compared to Lilac and Yunzhi who were scared out of their wits, the gentle-looking girl with long hair, Xiao Liu, was pale, but she was obviously much better, at least she still had the ability to think.Qin Dongwan nodded, thinking of what the little NPC had revealed to them before, it is estimated that house fights were indispensable in this ancient courtyard, and no doctor could cure them, but it was just a conspiracy between the concubine and the mistress.

It is not uncommon for a person to die in a mansion.

She slowly let go of Luo Shu, and bravely went forward to restore the thing to its original shape and bury it in the soil.After finishing everything, I suddenly heard that someone from the front yard seemed to come back, and it had already started to make noise, which was a bit more earthly and fireworks than the silence before.

In ancient times, most of the south of the Yangtze River were rich and wealthy merchants, known as the land of fish and rice and a rich land, where the sky was high and the emperor was far away, so they didn't know how to abide by particularly strict rules.After a few people discussed it, they decided to go outside to have a look, but they didn't know that after they left, the soil that had already been covered was slowly shaking.

The hand whose flesh had been scraped off seemed to grow out of the soft soil, pointing upwards little by little, with a long, thin skeleton arm, no longer the severed hand that Qin Dongwan had seen before.The snow-white Sophora japonica flowers are falling, and the rain is still falling, gently brushing over every flower, grass and tree, watering all things in spring to thrive.

The paper pasted on the window was finally broken with a few small holes.
