.
"ah--"
Jiang Yao's expression suddenly condensed when his words were interrupted by a scream, and he walked quickly in the direction of A Dong.
A Dong was seen slumped on the ground, holding the white cloth tightly in one hand. Her face was paler than the white cloth, her mask was wet with tears, and she was crying so hard that she couldn't breathe.
Seeing this scene, Cui Guoguo's steps slowed down and he couldn't bear to look away.
Under the white cloth.
The skin has been peeled off from the whole body, leaving a small figure wearing dog skin.
This extremely cruel method of making animals has been passed down from ancient times.
'Human Dog' can both recite poetry and write calligraphy.
When the child is six or seven years old, the child is smeared with a special secret medicine to peel off the outer skin, then put on fresh dog skin, drinks dog milk, and stays with the dog for a long time. Dog hair will gradually grow and become a 'human dog'.
There are also 'rat beauty', 'human-headed snake', 'skeleton beauty', 'vase girl', 'gong bear'... and so on.
inhuman.
This is the secret of Wuqiao Acrobatic Troupe and why it is sought after by countless people.
Studying poetry, singing, dancing, and opera in school are all in order to become a monster in the acrobatic troupe that is neither human nor beast.
A Dong cried bitterly in Jiang Yao's arms.
She was the one who had the deepest affection for those children.
I still remember that in the cellar, they looked up at me with clear and expectant eyes, listening curiously to the stories of the world outside the village.
A Dong didn't cry for long.
She stood up again, wiped away the tears that fell from her eyes, and covered Xiaowang with a white cloth. The tears soaked the white cloth, leaving tear stains.
Cui Guoguo came over and asked, "What are the arrangements now?"
Jiang Yao's eyes moved away from the white cloth, landing on the paradise-like Jiangtan Village, and said lightly.
"Enter the village."
Now that it is confirmed that Xiaohong is one of Wu Qiao's personalities, we can think of it as Xiaohong's personality during the day and Wu Qiao's personality at night.
The main quest progress of the dungeon has reached 90%
With only 10% left, this copy will be permanently closed.
And where can I get the rest of the progress?
Jiang Yao had an idea.
I'm afraid they have to watch the entire Wuqiao Acrobatic Troupe performance before the mission can be completely completed.
While watching the performance, you will definitely encounter dangers.
The three of them faced a destructive level monster with no chance of winning.
Wu Qiao is a person with antisocial personality and a pure bad guy. This kind of person will never stop committing crimes. It is simply impossible for him to change his ways.
"I have a plan and I will need your help when the time comes."
A Dong nodded in agreement without any hesitation.
Cui Guoguo asked: "What's the plan?"
Jiang Yao explained to them in detail, and then continued.
"Delay as long as possible."
"With your safety guaranteed."
Cui Guoguo frowned as she listened.
This is a desperate plan.
But so far, there is no better way.
The cold fog dissipated and the bright sunshine fell on me, but I couldn't feel any warmth.
The way down the mountain was not long, and A-Dong rarely spoke at ordinary times. Now he became even more silent, following quietly behind him.
Cui Guoguo is a type of person who is not very sensitive to emotions, which is related to her talent. Normally, she felt half the emotions that other people did.
So when she skinned the dog last night and found out it was Xiaowang, she immediately thought of not letting A-Dong see it, so she covered it with a white cloth and changed the subject.
But unexpectedly, A Dong still saw the body.
Jiang Yao asked at this time: "Cui Guoguo, why did you choose to stay?"
This was something she had always wanted to ask, but she had never found the right opportunity to ask it.
Based on what they have learned in the past few days, Cui Guoguo is very good at assessing the situation and will choose to withdraw completely when he finds something is wrong.
But when other players chose to complete ordinary tasks and leave the dungeon, she chose to stay.
Once you choose to stay, you can't leave until you complete the final mission.
When the system was broadcasting the report, when Jiang Yao heard the remaining three people, except for her and A Dong, the first thing that came to his mind was Duan Cheng.
Unexpectedly, Duan Cheng and Cui Guoguo made the opposite choice.
Cui Guoguo was quiet for two seconds and said slowly: "No reason, just for the props. I believe you can pass the level."
Jiang Yao said nothing.
The atmosphere was stagnant for a long time.
When they approached the entrance of the village, Cui Guoguo sighed and answered truthfully.
"Although my sister left the mysterious realm of "Yizhuang" alive, she is the most unlucky among the teammates. She is paralyzed and no medicine works."
She stared blankly ahead and said with a wry smile: "She protected me before, now it's time for me to protect her too."
Therefore, she cherishes her life very much, and she is very eager to obtain medicines and props that can cure all injuries and illnesses.
Player props can be hung in the trading system. So far, there are no medicinal props that can bring the dead back to life or treat serious diseases.
not much hope.
If the player is paralyzed, unable to move his limbs, or seriously ill... he still needs to enter the dungeon.
However, if someone is willing to take his place, there is no need to enter the dungeon.
Jiang Yao couldn't comfort her, he could only say: "Don't worry, we will definitely be able to leave the dungeon."
Cui Guoguo smiled and stopped talking.
Jiangtan Village is within easy reach.
It was eerily quiet.
When he stepped into the village, he saw no one. Cui Guoguo also went to the villagers' homes to search. There were only traces of their lives, and the rest of the people had disappeared.
I also searched the cellar under the school, but there was no trace of the child.
"We checked, no one is there."
Cui Guoguo said.
Xiaohong said last night that after the acrobatic troupe's performance ends, Jiangtan Village will cycle again, returning to the first day they came, and the villagers' children will lose their memories and the players will die.
Originally they planned to do something to Xiao Hong, but now they are not allowed to take advantage of the loophole.
Jiang Yao: "Let's split up. Before the acrobatic troupe performs, look for the abduction list and... the rules of the Wuqiao Acrobatic Troupe."
The last one is for A Dong's talent.
A Dong suddenly came to his senses and nodded.
Seeing that she was distracted, Jiang Yao couldn't help but say one more thing: "Forget it if you can't find her. Your own safety is the most important thing."
A-Dong took two deep breaths and nodded solemnly.
The three of them separated.
Meet before dark.
Cui Guoguo found the genealogy of Jiangtan Village, Jiang Yao found Wu Qiao's list of trafficked persons, and A Dong returned without success.
Apparently, the rules of the Wuqiao Acrobatic Troupe can only be found during the midnight performance.
Return to the old little teacher's residence.
Cui Guoguo pointed to the family tree and said in surprise: "There really is Xiaohong."
He Xiaohong, the daughter of the village chief He Fu, was frail and sick since childhood and died of illness before a fire broke out in the acrobatic troupe.
This also means that Wu Qiao’s second personality really existed in reality.
Her death from illness was the opportunity for Wu Qiao to split into a second personality.
There are hundreds of people on the trafficking list, densely packed with names, ages and genders.
What is buried in the cemetery is just the tip of the iceberg, and there are more than just those people abducted and trafficked in Wuqiao.
