Homecoming through online games

====================

This night, nothing happened.

Early the next morning, when the children got up and packed their bags, Ye Mu went around the village again, and everything was normal.

Before leaving, he untied the rope that bound the man, left some dry food for him, and informed Changyi of the news of the closure of the city by the way.The man lowered his head and took the rations, without speaking in a daze.

A long time after the group left, the person sitting on the bed moved, grabbed the dry food in his hand, and stuffed it into his mouth indiscriminately.

The dry food was very hard, but he ate it in a hurry, biting it like a vengeance, and swallowed it with a full mouthful, making his throat sore.

While eating, he whimpered and cried, and got stuck several times and couldn't breathe.

His hair was messed up, his face was covered with tears and snot.

He's cowardly, he's useless, he's a beast.

He, he lied.

The officers and soldiers left, but... the monsters came.

How dare he say that?

A few days ago, he had just seen a man in black armor with two knives on his back, after chatting with demons for a long time?

The little walking corpse screaming at his feet, the man drew his knife and stabbed it fiercely without looking at it, as if he picked up the corpse of a human child on the tip of the knife.He flicked it in disgust, and threw it into the reeds, hitting him right near where he was hiding.

He thought that he would never forget the other party's casual glance in his life-it was definitely not the look that a flesh-and-blood human being would have.

Cold, cruel, with a kind of condescending indifference.

He trembled all over, and suddenly threw the remaining dry food into the basket of dried fish beside the bed, grabbed his throat and bent down, retching desperately.

On the other side, after Ye Mu and his party dealt with the two wandering corpses, they encountered no obstacles.Leaving the lakeside, they made marks all the way out of a dense forest, and they finally arrived at the place in Ye Mu's memory.

The cliffs on both sides are very close, revealing a line of sky far away, which looks extraordinarily high.The steep cliffs are densely covered with wildly growing trees, their roots firmly grasping the rocks, and the crowns of the trees grow unscrupulously towards the sky with their teeth and claws stretched out, covering the sky with shades of greenery.It was clearly noon, but there was a dead silence in the gloomy valley, no birds chirping, no apes climbing, it was desolate, cold and lifeless.

Ye Mu got off his horse, and just waited around for a week, Ye Ming followed closely behind, driving the reserve food, and whispered:

"Daddy, the smell here is not right."

He frowned faintly, and there was an obvious look of disgust on his delicate face:

"Although it is very faint, it is definitely the smell of Dinghunxiang."

Is it the fragrance of the soul...

Ye Mu is no stranger to this term. In the game, this is a skill that the poisonous sect of Baicaotang gives him quite a headache.Since it belongs to the auxiliary high-level Gu poison in the branch of the poison system, it has little value in actual combat and costs a lot of potential points, so not many people practice it.But Ye Woruo has made too many enemies, and it just so happened that two players who did not take the usual path were recruited by gangs that had enemies with him, which brought him a lot of trouble.

Soul-fixing incense, auxiliary Gu poison, single-player skill, within one hour after marking the target character, you can know the distance and position of the opponent at any time through the chasing soul Gu, the irresistible state cannot be removed, and the status duration will not be consumed when the character is offline. The status is cleared after the character dies.

This skill can be said to be the nemesis of the Palace of Seven Kills, which focuses on stealth operations.But in reality, it is still necessary to confirm its actual effect.

Before asking questions, Ye Ming had already started to explain:

"Daddy doesn't know about this thing, right? It's a kind of Gu medicine. After people take the Soul Chaser Gu, they can follow the smell to find out where they walked. How long the effect can last depends on the dose of the medicine." He rubbed his nose , with a rather disgusted look, "It's not harmful to people, but it smells disgusting."

On the site of the Hall of Seven Kills, the poison of Baicaotang appeared... Ye Mu's heart sank.

A group of people slowly went deep into the valley.

The entrance to the Hall of Seven Kills is very conspicuous. Perhaps it was originally very hidden, but now it is really conspicuous.

The open space was a mess like a hurricane blowing over it, and there were several corpses of strange monsters lying here and there, spreading all the way, exposing the black lacquered entrance on the mountain wall.

Beside the entrance, a disciple wearing a mask and attired in the Palace of Seven Kills was nailed there with a long knife, his limbs were hanging limply beside him at a strange angle, his head was hanging on his chest like a broken one, and he had died for many years. day.

After a moment of silence, Ye Mu turned back on his horse and turned the horse's head.

"let's go."

He originally thought that the abandonment of the former site of the Palace of Seven Kills happened after a large-scale invasion of monsters, but now it seems that the situation is obviously more serious than he imagined.

Unintentionally venture into it to find out, extra curiosity is never too much of a luxury.

He's just an assassin, not a hero.

This road is blocked, and the place where the Seven Killing Hall will be rebuilt in the future is quite a distance from here.

Then the only option is to go back to the official road and continue northward, first find a city and place the children there.

In addition...

The monster here should be the reason for the walking corpse. Did the person I met in the village really know nothing about the change here, or did he deliberately conceal it?

You will still pass there on your way back, so you might as well ask.

The speed of the return trip was much faster, and what greeted them was an empty village.

The hacked corpses all disappeared without a trace, leaving only large and large stains on the ground to prove their existence.In the courtyard where they borrowed last night, a familiar basket was empty and overturned in the middle of the courtyard, and the man had disappeared.

A quick scan of the inside and outside of the house did not find anything unusual. A small piece of dry food was covered with dust and rolled down in an inconspicuous corner by the door. Ye Mu's footsteps paused there, and then he went out without stopping, put on the horse belt and the children left.

The answer to the question is not very important to him, so there is no need to waste time here.

When the sky was almost completely dark, they saw the new city.

At this time, the city gate has long been closed.

In the darkness, there was a fire in the distance that was particularly bright. When I got closer, I saw that at the entrance of a small dilapidated temple beside the official road, there was a handsome young man in rich clothes and a few beggars sitting around the fire. Barbecue with great interest.

When he heard the sound, he looked over, said "Hey", and greeted with a smile:

"We met again, so lucky."

The attitude is calm and at ease, the tone is calm and calm, and the Chinese clothes should be incompatible with the dilapidated scenery here, but when he wears it, it makes people feel like the moonlight, the bonfire, and his heart. The smiling face blends harmoniously into the scenery and makes the night even more beautiful.

It was the young master from outside Changyi City.
