"Who am I?"
Seem to see Pei Wende hiding that compassion, but this time she answered his question positively.
Whether it’s expression or tone, women seem a little abnormal nowadays.
"I, or we are all’ friends’ trapped in this fog."
"We are all trapped in this fog because’ Hong’ has reached the exchange."
"I think what you are looking for is also a’ Hong’ trader …"
"It’s a pity that everyone who wants to come in and look for someone has fallen into this foggy food."
Chapter 17 Beads of Ephemera
“……”
Before fully thinking about the meaning of Bai Nv’s remarks, Pei Wende found that the fog that devoured the village was gradually dissipating.
And as the fog cleared, the swallowed villages reappeared one by one.
However, the traces of destruction and swallowing still remain, and the villagers’ expressions of sadness or joy are also very funny.
"Zhu Nv?"
At this time, a emaciated old man took the lead to get near the woman’s house and saw Pei Wende and her not far away at a glance.
"You …"
The old man looked at the woman in shock, or more precisely at the two green orbs in her hand.
"Big? What will this thing be in your hand? "
"Don’t those monsters change this time because of Ada to the limit?"
A few problems happened in a row, and the old man did not care to show that he was an outsider, Pei Wende.
However, a "Zhu Nv" did not answer his question directly, but glanced at the villagers who survived the robbery with a slightly mocking and sneering expression.
"Oh, just in time?"
"This time they are going to sacrifice you? A bad old man who has lived for many years? "
"But don’t worry, even my son, I will definitely not let those monsters spread."
Be Zhu Nv such a sarcastic old man’s eyes appeared to show nai color.
Obviously, just like Zhu Nv said, the old man didn’t show up here on his own initiative, but the villagers pushed him to Zhu Nv semi-compulsively.
"Zhu Nv, you know this is our destiny."
"After all, if there is no one, those monsters will devour everyone."
"Anyway, the old man has lived for so many years. Although it is not the most suitable body, it can let everyone live for a while."
"On the contrary, you really don’t need to think of everyone so sinister."
Don’t believe the old story at all. After Zhu Nv disdained to laugh, she directly looked up and swallowed the two green orbs into her stomach.
"Gollum!"
With a clearly visible swallowing, Zhu Nv’s skin turned gray at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Then I saw a bone horn like a knife cut her eyebrows, and then a scarlet vertical eye opened as scary as a ferocious demon pupil
However, this is not the end, because this is just a
"ah!"
In Zhu Nv’s pent-up cry of pain, two small sharp corners burst through the skin on both sides of her forehead, just before the horn formed a triangle.
From a distance, it looks like a simple crown directly grows Zhu Nv’s skull.
And that scarlet vertical eye is the most important "gem" in the center of this crown, which is not only eye-catching and gorgeous, but also exudes a strange smell all the time.
"Hey!"
With the formation of the "crown", Zhu Nv’s skin has become pale and hardened.
After a few breaths, Zhu Nv’s skin turned into a rock-like tough substance, and some key parts directly grew a layer of miserable white cuticle.
The most important thing is that Zhu Nv’s body is constantly expanding and becoming a form that makes Pei Wende feel familiar.
"Hey!"
So when all these changes stopped, the original gentle woman had disappeared and was replaced by a skeleton giant three meters high.
……………………………………………………………………………………………………
"Hey!"
After completing her own transformation, Zhu Nv, the incarnation of the skeleton giant, finally cast a glance at her swinging home and then turned and disappeared into the fog that quickly dispersed.
Old man or Pei Wende …
Zhu Nv seems to have completely forgotten that they met the skeleton giant like the "dead" before they became Pei Wende at this moment.
"alas!"
It was expected that the old man didn’t know whether he was relieved or sighed, and then he slowly turned his attention to Pei Wende.
"It seems to outsiders that you caused all this?"
Because I didn’t hear Zhu Nv’s similar hostility from the old saying, Pei Wende nodded just after thinking.
It is his heart that gives birth to vigilance against the elderly and will not treat each other as an ordinary old man.
This is not only because Zhu Nv’s body has changed, which makes Pei Wende feel a little strange, but also because their conversation has revealed a huge amount of information.
"if you don’t mind, would you like to listen to my old man ramble?"
Zhu Nv’s hostility to outsiders is different. The old man’s eyes to Pei Wende are full of nostalgia and regret.
After all, this land has not been successfully invaded by outsiders for more than ten years.
When I say this, I always pause, as if I were waiting for Pei Wende’s reply.
"But I also want to know what happened here."
First, I glanced thoughtfully at the disappearance direction of Zhu Nv, and then I turned my head and glanced at the villagers who were still afraid …
Pei Wende feels that these villagers seem to be more complicated than they thought.
However, this does not prevent Pei Wende from getting information clues from the old man, especially the situation that Zhu Nv suddenly turned into a skeleton giant.
"That’s good!"
The old man nodded his head with relief, and didn’t tell his true purpose until then.
"But I hope you can take the initiative to leave here and never come back to the village after listening to my nagging."
Gave the old man a silent look. Pei Wende knew that this was his condition.
Although the other party doesn’t show naked hostility like Zhu Nv, I still don’t want to stay here after all.
The difference is that Zhu Nv seems to have never thought about "peace" talks with Pei Wende since the death of Ada.
"This will do, but I want to be the first to know what happened to the skeleton giant?"
"And what about Zhu Nv’s complaint that I killed Ah Da and woke up this land?"
Pei Wende intuitively told him that these two questions might be able to answer most of his doubts.
Vaguely Pei Wende feels that even the villagers here may not know the real answers to these two questions.
