So now, there is only one last question left.
Where have all the old people and young people in this town gone?
Will children be eaten when they reach a certain age? That's understandable, but... people get older.
And last night, after the envelope burned, these people seemed to have a few seconds of clarity, questioning why they were still alive.
Failed...
What's the plan again?
The old monkey is called the messenger of God, and what role does he play?
As the only young man in the town who can still see his own existence, what is his purpose?
In fact, it was not difficult for Wang Ye to just burn these three letters.
But he always felt that the secret of Iron Bridge Town seemed to be more important, and he didn't want to give up this opportunity to explore it.
But at least one thing is certain, that is, when he burns the letter, the old monkey will stop him, and after the envelope is burned, ordinary people will briefly wake up.
Maybe, you can find another idol and try it?
Wang Ye thought for a while and started searching in the town. After half an hour, he finally found the same short house and clay statue in a remote corner.
Not in a hurry to burn the letter, Wang Ye took note of the location, returned to the town, sneaked into the small shop, knocked out the leisurely aunt, dragged her away, and brought her to the statue.
I lit the envelope and waited silently.
Sure enough, not long after, the old monkey appeared again, watching Wang Ye from a distance, baring his teeth and claws.
Maybe because he knew he couldn't defeat Wang Ye, he didn't take action this time, and just stared at him with a ferocious expression and kept making threatening roars.
Wang Ye turned a blind eye to this and just waited silently.
In the small room, the eyes of the clay figure gradually opened, exuding a faint yin energy.
It wasn't until the envelope was completely burned that the old monkey glared at Wang Ye angrily and disappeared into the distance.
At the same time, Wang Ye slapped the middle-aged woman in the small shop awake.
There was a hint of clarity in the woman's eyes.
"If you know anything, tell me!"
Wang Ye spoke very quickly, looking at the middle-aged woman and urging.
The middle-aged woman glanced at the statue with a sad expression.
It only takes a little more than ten seconds in total, and the mood is wasted...
Wang Ye had a cold expression and slapped the middle-aged woman on the back of the head: "Say quickly, you know what I want to ask!"
The woman was stunned for a moment, as if she was trying to form words.
"Zhou..."
"guard..."
After only saying four words, the woman's eyes were once again covered with a layer of red mist.
The strange thing is that in a clear state, she can see Wang Ye, but after her eyes are shrouded in red mist, she cannot sense his presence.
She looked around blankly, finally rubbed her inexplicably painful head, turned around and left, not forgetting to take an eyeball out of her pocket and stuff it into her mouth.
The statue of the god stood on the altar, also clasping his hands and making an ancient ceremonial gesture to Wang Ye.
Then, the short house slowly sank into the ground.
But what was different from last time was that as the low house disappeared, it... suddenly turned dark.
Completely violating the principle, a blood moon shines in the sky.
Compared with last night, the blood moon at this time was dripping with blood, as if it was raining blood.
The rain fell and poured on the bodies of ordinary people. The blood mist in their eyes seemed to be a little thicker, but at the same time, it also lost its agility.
It was like a movie that was halfway through was suddenly stuck, it seemed so weird.
Wang Ye looked at this scene expressionlessly, as if waiting for something.
But everything around him was quiet, only the sound of blood dripping.
The strange thing is that there is no rain within one foot around Wang Ye's body.
He was like a spectator, isolated from this world and seemed out of place.
Wang Ye didn't feel anything about this, but he moved a chair casually and sat in the center of the street.
Monkeys suddenly appeared from every corner, their scarlet eyes staring at Wang Ye from a distance.
He bared his teeth and looked extremely ferocious.
Some of the monkeys clearly had some meat foam hanging from the corners of their mouths.
"I have been wondering where the old people in this town have gone. If I guess correctly, they should be these monkeys."
Wang Ye said as if talking to himself.
"And the strange thing is that I searched all over the town and couldn't find the third statue."
"On the contrary, it seems that there is a pair of hands secretly guiding me... allowing me to act and think according to the direction he gave me."
"For example...these monkeys are bad people."
"For example...these villagers' surname is Zhou."
"What a coincidence. Just like in TV dramas, they always say a few words at the right time and then fall into coma, leaving room for speculation?"
"But there are so many such coincidences in this world."
Wang Ye's faint voice kept echoing in the town.
"I was misled from the beginning. I was not allowed to take Xiao Wu and Xiao Er with me. I thought it was a military mission."
"I didn't expect it to be just a trick."
"Indeed, when it comes to playing with your brains, calling them won't do much good."
As he spoke, the chain around his waist flew out of thin air, half of it wrapped around Wang Ye's waist, and the other half curled up like a snake, dancing constantly, exuding wisps of black energy.
Wang Ye stood up from the chair and pulled out the Ghost Sword, exuding a cold light.
"If I guess correctly, I will probably discover the third altar by coincidence soon, right?"
"Aren't you coming out yet!?"
Wang Ye's last words were almost deafening, echoing in the air.
Soon, a young man came out of the corner with a complicated expression and looked at Wang Ye.
"As the only young man in the town, you have been acting a little pretentious since you first appeared at my window last night..."
Wang Ye was not surprised: "I found the right statue to worship the gods..."
"From the very beginning, you have been insulting my intelligence!"
"But at least I got some useful information from you, such as the City God and the Zhou family."
"Now, you can go die."
As he spoke, Wang Ye was getting closer and closer to the young man, with a strong murderous look in his eyes.
"But you used that weird letter after all. Without the letter, you can't kill me."
The young man said in a stiff tone, and twisted his neck. The strange flavor of dialect had disappeared, and Mandarin was very standard.
"you..."
"Sure?"
Wang Ye had a strange expression.
