This question must not be asked at this time.
Jiang Yao knew the key.
The reason why the cave dwellers took them in and Granny Wushan selflessly saved their lives was because they were not from the Dragon Burial Village.
The cave people are kind-hearted and approachable to others. When my mother-in-law was very old, she was still working hard for the cave people. In order to survive, they were willing to dig holes and live in burrows like rats and ants.
Jiang Yao has his own selfish motives for lobbying so much.
One is the mission, the second is to expel the strange realm, and the third is to find Xiao Huang.
She is most afraid of owing favors.
Grandma Wushan saved her and A Dong's lives, and Jiang Yao wanted to help as much as possible.
"Grandma, can you tell me why you are staying in the hole?"
Grandma Wushan's eyes fell on her, as if she was looking at others through her. After a long time, her wrinkled face became solemn.
"You should have been to Dragon Burial Village."
Jiang Yao nodded.
Jiang Ji moved two chairs and placed them behind Granny Wushan and her, then stepped aside and worked hard without complaint.
The mother-in-law glanced at him and sat down with her knees slightly bent.
The log chair made a creaking sound when you sat on it, and the oil lamp hanging on the cave wall shed a faint light, spreading on the old mother-in-law's stooped back.
Just listen to her.
"You are not the first outsider to ask me about Dragon Burial Village. They are from the same place as you."
The tone was firm.
When the mysterious realm of "Buried Dragon Village" first appeared, waves of players poured into it, just to get various high-end props and ghosts.
At that time, no one knew how terrifying this mysterious realm was. Only when the players who entered did not come out did the country really take it seriously and seal the mysterious realm.
Mother-in-law is different from the previous NPCs in the Strange Realm. She has memories and has memories of the players she meets.
Obviously, those players who got clues from her are all dead.
That's why she was so cautious, not wanting more people to take this dead end.
Jiang Yao's face became serious and he nodded in agreement.
Jiang Ji was very busy nearby. He set up a small round table in front of them and poured hot herbal tea. Worrying that they were hungry, he also fried thin pancakes and wrapped them with various side dishes, which were appetizing and filling. abdomen.
One person is very busy.
The mother-in-law wanted to speak, but when she saw this, her brows twitched a few times and she said angrily.
"Aji, if you have nothing else to do, go water the herbs."
Jiang Ji squatted in front of the round table like a little daughter-in-law, glanced at her mother-in-law with a resentful look, then got up and went to water the medicine field.
Jiang Yao: "…………"
She tried to adjust her emotions and listened to her mother-in-law.
"I don't believe in your ability, so before I answer your questions, I will give you a test. After you complete it, I will tell you."
Jiang Yao was not surprised either.
After her mother-in-law revealed that she had seen an outsider like her, she guessed that the road to solving the mystery would not be smooth.
"I will let Ah Ji go with you. Although my grandson's brain is not very good, he can still take care of you in times of danger."
Jiang Ji, who was watering the medicine field not far away, heard her name. Without putting down the kettle, she hurried over, huffing and puffing, and stood beside him like a stone statue, whispering.
"Mother-in-law, what can you call me for?"
Granny Wushan ignored him.
Jiang Yao cupped his hands and promised, "I will do it."
The test her mother-in-law gave her was to go to the Black River and search for a corpse along the fast-flowing river.
He didn't say whose body it was, but said that he would tell her everything when she came back from the test.
The length of the Heihe River is thirty kilometers, and it would take a normal person six hours to walk there, let alone go into the water to look for corpses. This test was not easy, but compared to past experiences, it was nothing.
A-Dong's evil curse has not been completely lifted. Her physique is not as good as Jiang Yao's. In addition, A-Dong has tried many wild vegetables and herbs, and the evil curse has penetrated deep into her bones.
In the words of my mother-in-law, if the delivery is one minute late, the gods will not be able to save it.
A-Dong is protected by her mother-in-law, and the cave is hidden. She is very safe in the cave.
The mother-in-law did not give them a gift, but gave her something as a gift before they left.
As soon as Jiang Yao touched it, he could feel the yin energy entering his fingertips. His flesh and blood seemed to be frozen, and it was a biting cold.
This is a ghost.
A row of information panels appeared in front of you.
[Old rattle (special): repaired and repaired, very loved by the owner. (In Yinlin Mountain, shaking the rattle can drive away evil spirits and prevent you from getting lost again.)]
The wooden handle of the rattle is badly worn and wrapped with old cloth. The body of the drum is made of wood, and the drum head is made of a layer of oil paper, which has been repaired again and again if it is torn.
As the message says, the previous owner cherished it and loved it.
Jiang Yao wanted to ask her mother-in-law whose rattle this was.
The mother-in-law closed the door and said nothing.
Seeing this reaction, Jiang Yao guessed that the rattle should be the corpse buried in the Black River.
When we came out of the cave, we were greeted by several cave residents. The bags contained dry food that could last for a long time and would satisfy our hunger, as well as a few pieces of cold clothing.
"Xiyaozi, we don't blame you for what happened before. You should pay attention to safety when you go out. We will wait for you to come back."
"Jiang Wu, you must come back safely."
Obviously, the cavemen already knew what they were going to do.
There are many dangers outside, like hell, and they can't do much to help. They can only provide some material help.
Jiang Yao remembered how they used brooms to drive people away when he asked about Burial Dragon Village.
In fact, the cavemen were just pretending to scare her, and the broom never touched her.
They said goodbye one by one, carried their baggage, and left the cave.
When I came to Yinlin Mountain again, I smelled the damp and stuffy air, and a drop of cold rain fell on my cheek. Everywhere I looked, there was darkness, and there was a faint rustling sound in the distance.
It was like the scales of a snake rubbing against the ground of a tree. Jiang Yao knew that it was the sound made by the squirming vines.
She took out the rattle from her arms and started shaking it slowly.
The strange noise disappeared, and there was no other sound in the forest except the patter of rain.
The thin rain and fog that hung in front of me also dissipated, and the light in the woods was dim, so I could only judge the direction based on the keel.
"Umbrella, cover from the rain..."
Jiang Ji took out a black umbrella from nowhere, opened it hurriedly, and stretched it out to cover the rain falling on her head.
Jiang Yao raised his head and glanced at the umbrella, confirming that it was the one he held before entering the strange realm.
There was a trace of hesitation in her eyes.
"How did you bring this umbrella into the Strange Realm?"
The black umbrella with a metal stand is obviously out of tune with this era.
Jiang Ji stretched out his umbrella to her side. His shoulders were soaked by the rain and he didn't even notice.
He said: "That's how I brought it in."
Jiang Yao: "."
Asking means not asking.
As she walked, she shook the rattle in her hand.
Jiang Ji could always keep one step away from her and follow her step by step. The black umbrella was firmly nailed on top of her head to cover her from the rain.
