"this······"

The broken pieces of wood were stuck directly into the soil. Twelve years have made the blood of the Xion villagers mix with the land that raised them. The black land...

Entering the barrier, directly in front of Yuhua and Lalis is the gate of Xion Village. The lively little village in their memory... is so lonely now.

There are mottled dried blood stains on the houses made of thatched straw, and you can clearly see the dense sharp cracks on the walls. There are many crisscrossing paths in the village, but now it is overgrown with weeds and it is impossible to tell which one is which.

Which one?

Just a few steps after walking through the gate, Lalis suddenly ran to what looked like a roadside vendor cart, but... it was already broken into pieces.

"I... bought apple candies here..." Lalis lowered her head and murmured, "I remember when my parents first brought me here, they bought a big apple here in order to keep me quiet for a while.

sugar……"

Yuhua sounded a little sad, but in order to ease the current atmosphere, he could only try to comfort him, "Then... that..."

(Ah! I don’t know how to comfort people at all!)

"What's wrong?" Lalith asked simply.

(How to say it? What would Tisya say... emm...)

"Is that apple candy delicious?"

······

(Ah! What am I talking about, that idiot Tisya!)

Just when he was embarrassed, what Yuhua didn't expect was that Lalis burst into laughter. This was the first time he saw Lalis smile.

"I'm fine! Don't worry!"

"Oh~" Even though I said so, I still felt uneasy in my heart!

The two walked along the only main road in the village, a bit like a giant centipede. The road under their feet was its body. The endless path was like its terrifying limbs. On this basis,

The houses built on the ground are just the shells that resist external objects.

The broken houses around were obviously densely covered with knife marks and sword marks. Suspiciously, no corpses could be found anywhere, which was really confusing.

This... looks like an abandoned village...

Yuhua stopped, put his hands on his hips, his head hung slightly downward, his white hair smooth

The force was blocking his eyes, showing a very troubled expression.

"Lalis..."

"?"

"Have you ever met a demon here?"

"You...how did you know?" Lalis was stunned for a moment.

"Answer me quickly!" Yuhua shouted slightly with a strong tone.

"Oh!" This was the first time Lalisi saw Yuhua looking very angry.

"After my father sent me to a safe place, he asked me to go home alone. I kept walking along that road. When I was hungry, I ate the wild vegetables on the roadside, and when I was thirsty, I drank the food that occasionally appeared.

Stream..." At this point, Lalisi's tone also weakened a bit, "I walked like this for five days and five nights, and all I saw along the way were endless forests and many ferocious beasts."

Taking a breath, he continued, "But I didn't expect that all these difficulties did not defeat me. What defeated me was actually my own body. Lack of water, alternation of cold and heat, etc. seemed to exceed the limits of my body. On the sixth day, I collapsed

On the way."

Yuhua looked at Lalis and regretted his previous attitude and was impulsive.

"Just when I felt like I was about to pass out, a red-haired woman covered in blood and bruises walked out of the bushes nearby. She asked me if I wanted to live."

"So you just said what you want?" Yuhua interjected.

"Yeah!" Lalis replied with some shame.

"Ah...I don't mean to look down on you. When life is in danger, it is human nature to want to continue to survive. If it were me, I would answer the same way."

Lalis's cheeks turned a little red.

"What’s wrong with you?"

"No...it's okay. I just heard you say that and I feel a lot better."

"Then what? What about that red-haired woman? How do you know she is a demon?"

"Oh! Logically speaking, there is no difference between the appearance of demons and humans, but the red-haired man has two black horns as long as his index fingers on both sides of his forehead, and his whole body exudes a very strong murderous aura.

, my intuition tells me that she is a demon."

(Red hair, black horns, could it be...)

"Please tell me more details!" Yuhua grabbed Lalisi's shoulders and said with some urgency, "Does that red-haired woman have any other characteristics?"

"Let me think about it~" Lalis unconsciously used her left arm to hold her right elbow, and then pressed her right fist against her chin, "That woman feels very coquettish! Emm... Yes, she is very coquettish, and her skin is a bit dark,

Wow~ I only remember so much!”

"Yeah!" After hearing this, Yuhua probably had an idea in his mind.

"Pfft!" Yuhua suddenly laughed.

Yuhua's strange behavior startled Lalisi.

"Sorry! Ah~ haha, I just feel like you've changed a lot recently! Emm... I just feel like you've become a lot more cheerful since you came here!"

(snort!)

"Hey! Don't go!"

······

"Hey, let's go back, okay? I'll give you carrots to eat, okay?"

At this moment, Abai was sitting on Huakai's shoulder and complaining from time to time.

Due to Tisiya's restless demands, Huakai and Abai were forced to be pulled out at night. The location of Humong Village was already in a relatively remote place in the human world, not to mention this more remote forest.

So this directly leads to the extreme coldness of the surrounding air.

"Don't complain! In such a big forest, there must be many treasures that can't be found!"

"But……"

"No but! Be careful I tell Teacher Yuhua that you stole his experimental results!"

(woo~)

A Bai cast an expectant look at Hua Kai with his little red bean-like eyes, and Hua Kai here also realized A Bai's thoughts.

"Um... Tisiya, don't you think the temperature around you is abnormally low?"

"When you say that, it does seem a little cold!" Tisiya stopped and began to rub her arms on both sides with her palms.

"Well! Although winter is not too far away now, it feels like falling into an ice cave now!"

"..."

"Hey! How about we go back?"

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Tisiya seemed a little shaken, "But, maybe there is a treasure ahead!"

"Ti~si~ya!" Hua Kai said in a long voice deliberately.
