Xiaohong raised her eyes, only darkness remained in her eyes.
"Everyone is locked in the cage of Jiangtan Village, immortal... This is a curse, right? But why curse the victim? I, I have thought of many ways, but to no avail..."
She was incoherent and looked dazed.
The last words were spoken so loudly that the children who wanted to hear A-Dong tell stories outside the village were inattentive and ran over worriedly.
"Sister Xiaohong, what's wrong with you?"
"What curse?"
"Are you feeling unwell?"
"You must have hurt Sister Xiaohong!" Xiao Wang, who was usually timid and shy, reached out and patted Jiang Yao angrily. Even though she was taller than him, she did not flinch in front of Sister Xiaohong.
The slapping didn't hurt or itch, Jiang Yao said without moving.
"So you selected us to enter the dungeon to destroy the acrobatic troupe?"
Xiaohong's words confirmed that Wu Qiao was the initiator of all this.
If he exists in the world, Jiangtan Village will always be a purgatory.
The children could not understand her.
Xiaohong took a deep breath, slowly calmed down, and looked at her closely.
"The Wuqiao Acrobatic Troupe's performance will be held tomorrow night. If you can't destroy the Acrobatic Troupe, everything will start again and you will die."
As soon as she finished speaking, she held her chest and coughed violently, coughing up a mouthful of black blood.
Xiaohong's mental state also began to deteriorate.
She said too much and was criticized by the copy.
it's dark.
When Jiang Yao and the others came out of the cellar, the darkness was thick and silent, enveloping Jiangtan Village like a cover.
When Xiaohong spoke, Cui Guoguo was listening the whole time and followed behind.
"Can she be trusted?"
Don't blame her for being suspicious, there are no living people in the copy, they are all dead. The credibility of the words spoken by the dead is not high. They have always been in the copy, corroded by Yin Qi, and are often very malicious.
There are many strange things about Xiaohong's words.
For example.
Cui Guoguo found out that Wu Qiao was ruthless, unscrupulous and selfish in order to make money.
But the Wu Qiao in Xiaohong's memory was a gentle brother who treated her extremely well.
Cui Guoguo felt that what she found was the real Wu Qiao.
Wu Qiao is someone who can even turn his back on his biological parents.
How could he be so kind to the buyer's unrelated sister?
Also, if this copy was really influenced by Wu Qiao, those villagers should not obey Xiao Hong's orders.
A-Dong has developed feelings for those children. He looks back from time to time, feeling uneasy and a little reluctant to let go.
She hadn't spoken so much in a long time.
"It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not, what matters is tonight." Jiang Yao said.
When Cui Guoguo heard this, her heart tightened and she couldn't help but said, "You want to wait until midnight?"
Jiang Yao: "Have you ever seen a team beating gongs and drums in the middle of the night?"
Cui Guoguo shook his head.
Jiang Yao asked again: "Where are the others?"
Cui Guoguo tore open the candy wrapper, put it in her mouth, thought for a moment, and said, "I don't know, most people probably haven't seen it."
They all found rules in their residences. The rules made it very clear that players could not go out after dark.
Even if someone goes out at night, such as Duan Cheng, they would never dare to stay until midnight.
A Dong is not the only one who has the ability to sense the intensity of strange things.
There is a destructive-level monster hidden in that team that beats gongs and drums. Even the players on the list dare not confront it, let alone them.
That is an existence they dare not mention.
Jiang Yao said: "I haven't seen it either."
The previous two nights were separated by a window. The window was opened the next night, and a disaster-level monster entered the house. Under the circumstances, it was impossible for Jiang Yao to open his eyes.
Cui Guoguo hesitated for a while and asked tentatively: "Didn't Xiaohong say that the Wuqiao Acrobatic Troupe will perform at the market tonight? You can also watch it then."
Jiang Yao shook his head and just said: "It's too late."
In fact, there was one thing she didn't tell Cui Guoguo.
Everything Xiaohong said is true.
This is Black Cat's use of talent, and she sees it through the memory in Xiao Hong's mind.
Words can be faked, but memory cannot.
But those are Xiaohong's memories during his lifetime, and there are no memories after his death, that is, the memories after the copy of "Wuqiao Acrobatic Troupe" was formed.
Known so far.
The villagers in Jiangtan Village are controlled by Xiaohong during the day, but after midnight, they are no longer under her control.
Jiang Yao asked, why didn't Xiaohong destroy the acrobatic troupe?
Xiaohong's answer is.
She will fall into a deep sleep when it reaches zero o'clock, not just her, but all children do the same.
Therefore, she has never met Wu Qiao since the dungeon was formed.
I also thought about communicating with Wu Qiao through letters, but to no avail.
There were piles of letters, and Wu Qiao had not read any of them.
When saying this, Xiaohong showed a weak bitter smile.
"He has always been like this, never communicating with me about the acrobatic troupe."
.
Cui Guoguo had no objection to her words. She chewed some candy and said, "Then I'll talk to my sister and find out more about Wu Qiao."
Wuqiao is so famous that it even appeared in newspapers back then. But time has passed and a lot of information is difficult to find out clearly.
Jiang Yao: "Check if he has ever been sick."
Although Cui Guoguo didn't understand why she was checking this, she still responded obediently.
The wait is long.
They climbed onto the roof, hiding themselves in the night, and stared in the direction of the village entrance.
This location is very good. If there is any danger, you can go directly up the mountain to avoid it.
The three of them lay in a row. Cui Guoguo, who had consumed too much mental energy during the day, almost fell asleep while waiting.
Until the familiar sound of gongs and drums sounded.
The three of them suddenly woke up and became focused.
far away.
A lantern was lit in the darkness, and luxury carriages, five in total, walked slowly along the brick road in the village. Looking from a distance, those horses actually had long pointed horns on their heads, walking through the black mist, like ghost horses from hell.
Cui Guoguo covered her mouth that almost made a sound and looked at this scene in surprise.
A Dong thought he was in a science fiction movie, but he looked in disbelief.
What's even more magical is that the gongs are played by two standing black bears. The dim yellow lanterns reflect the dim light, casting a faint golden halo on their bodies.
On the first carriage, there was a flag embroidered with the words "Wuqiao Acrobatic Troupe", swaying with the wind like waves.
Thick black fog filled the air, gradually covering the entire Jiangtan Village.
The moment they touched the black mist, the traveling carriage suddenly stopped, and the black bear who was beating the gong looked at their position.
Jiang Yao felt bad.
really.
The two black bears were lying on all fours and running towards this side quickly.
Not only were there bears, there were also a group of vicious dogs with gaping mouths, roaring and barking at them.
"You go up the mountain to the cemetery!"
Jiang Yao said to them immediately.
Cui Guoguo was stunned for a moment, understood what she meant, picked up A Dong and ran away.
The two figures drifted away.
Jiang Yao pulled out the mahogany sword, not to stop the black bear and the vicious dog from choosing to stay, but to confirm one thing.
A very important thing.
