The fairy cultivator sets up a fortune-telling stall in a horror game

The flower girl ghost was startled, and her eyes were blurred. The ax that was supposed to hit Josh had already hit the old lady's head.

Blood spurted out from the old lady's head, and blood flowed down her cheeks.

"How dare you!!" The old lady's facial features wrinkled together in anger, and she gasped in anger.

Unlike other old ladies, she not only had teeth in her mouth, but her teeth were also dark in color and dripping with scarlet saliva and mucus, which made her look disgusting and ferocious.

Josh subconsciously covered his mouth and nose and took a step back: "Even if you are an NPC, you should at least practice some hygiene."

"I think you are tired of living!" At some point, several more knives appeared in the old lady's hand. The blades shone with a cold light, and they all pierced Josh.

The flower girl ghost saw another flower in front of her eyes, and all the knives were thrust back into the old lady.

Josh pulled out the knife on her shoulder, and the old lady's arm fell to the ground.

She smiled, wiped the blood stains on the knife with the old lady's clothes, and then asked: "I came to you to ask something, will you tell me?"

After a while, the old lady finally gave in, holding the knife in Josh's hand between her eyebrows, and let the person in.

Josh gave her a kind look: "If you had been so good earlier, wouldn't you have had to suffer all this?"

The flower girl ghost swallowed her saliva next to her. It seemed that she was quite sensible in being obedient these days.

The old lady looked a little older. She ushered the person into the room and said, "What on earth do you want to ask?"

Josh looked at her: "Do you know the story of the Rose and the Nightingale?"

The old lady's face froze, and her face instantly turned ugly: "I don't know!"

Josh pulled out a knife from her body and played with it in his hand: "This is it..."

The old lady screamed and covered her wound, blood gushing out.

Josh asked again: "Do you know the story of the Rose and the Nightingale?"

The old lady was quite stubborn at first. After having the knife inserted and pulled out several times, and her body was covered with dense blood holes, she finally gave in: "I'll tell you... I'll tell you, okay?"

Josh smiled and nodded: "Look, if you told me from the beginning, there wouldn't be so much trouble, right? I'm a pretty easy-going person."

The old lady with knives all over her body turned into a hedgehog: "..."

The ghost flower girl whose chest felt cold and had a talisman stuck on her chest said: "..."

Old lady: "Everyone in the town knows about the nightingale and the rose, but you have to ask me."

Josh took out another fruit knife from somewhere.

The old lady went straight to the topic: "The nightingale is the most beautiful singing bird in the town. As long as she sings every day, she will turn into a beautiful girl and live outside the rose garden all year round. One day, the nightingale and a girl in the rose garden met. The nightingale fell in love with a rose. In order to make the rose turn into a person and fall in love with her, the nightingale went to the witch for help. The witch told her that only if she sincerely sang to the rose for 7 days, the rose could turn into a person and fall in love with the nightingale. .”

"The nightingale sings to the rose every day, and every day the rose grows a part of the human body. But during these seven days, the nightingale falls in love with a philosophical man. The man needs a rose in the mouth of the nightingale to express her feelings."

"In order to make the man believe in her love, the nightingale deceived the rose. After the rose fell asleep, she broke the rose and took it to the man. But the man gave the rose to the princess and abandoned the nightingale. The nightingale did not fulfill the witch's instructions. Rose died tragically at the hands of her lover.”

"Since then, the town has been under a curse. All those who are unfaithful to love will be cursed and become fertilizer for flower vines, and their souls will never rest in peace."

Josh nodded understandingly: "So that's it."

The identity she drew was a nightingale, and the man she saw in the fantasy was most likely the rose in the story.

So her identity should be the Nightingale who betrayed Rose.

According to this statement, if you want to solve the town's curse, you must start with Rose.

She recalled what the man said last night. Did he ask her to love him?

That rose path should have some special meaning.

Josh looked at her: "I have one last question."

The old lady looked at her.

Josh: "Did you also suddenly grow old because of the curse? Boss lady?"

The ghost flower girl blinked blankly.

But the old lady suddenly changed her expression, jumped up and wanted to strangle Josh's neck.

She easily turned around to avoid it, and a few knives were thrust in. The old lady calmed down.

"How do you know my identity..." The old lady covered the bloody hole on her body, her face turned pale with pain, and she didn't look as majestic as before.The flower girl ghost nearby couldn't help but sympathize with this old lady. She was usually very majestic in the town, relying on her elders to act like a domineering lady, but today she was almost beaten to death.

She couldn't help but glance at Josh beside her.

What is the origin of this woman?
One moment I was strong, and the next I fainted on the spot after smelling the roses, like a noob.

Seeing her admitting it so quickly, Josh took back the remaining knives in his hand with some regret, "You and the hotel owner are a couple, right? Why aren't you with him?"

"Her and the hotel owner? She looks like she's about to be in a coffin, right? The hotel owner is only in his 40s..." The flower girl was dumbfounded.

Barrage: [I said what I wanted to say. 】

[Female juniors, holding gold bricks, female seniors, holding top positions, female seniors [-], ranking in the immortal class, do you understand? 】

[Innkeepers know how to struggle. 】

[Boss: It doesn’t matter if you are old or not, I mainly like mature people. 】

[Just ask if you don’t understand, don’t all men like someone smaller than themselves? 】

[It’s as if women don’t like being smaller than themselves. 】

[It seems to make sense...]

[Off topic! 】

Josh looked at the old lady: "I think you look very strange. You must be under 50 years old, right?"

Flower Girl Ghost: "??"

The old lady sighed: "Well..."

Josh looked at her: "Is it a curse?"

The old lady looked at her deeply, without nodding or denying: "In a small town, no one can be disloyal to love."

Josh: "In that case, why don't you go back to find him?"

The old lady snorted coldly, and there was a hint of sinisterness in her eyes: "Why should you go to him? He deserves it?!"

In the end, Josh failed to persuade the old lady to return to the hotel, but today was not a failure.

The old lady's example proves from the side that betraying love will not necessarily lead to death, but may be punished by a curse.

But there are many ways of punishment, and it is not necessarily limited to accelerated aging.

Josh looked at the old woman calmly.

Her hair was well maintained and smooth, she smelled very clean, her fingernails were painted with nail polish, and she was wearing a very beautiful dress. It was obvious that she was a woman who loved beauty.

But she was cursed to accelerate aging and lose her beauty.

and so……

The punishment of the curse is likely to take away what the NPC cares about most in their hearts. This is the reason why they fear the curse.

Josh shared the information with the group.

The three met in a tavern.

Yuze took out his identity card.

Josh glanced at it: "Philosophical traveler?"

Yuze looked at her: "Are you Nightingale?"

Josh nodded, looked at him, and suddenly understood: "Are you the philosopher who made Nightingale fall in love with someone else?"

Yu Ze curled his lips.

Yushi suddenly realized, "So this is your method. Find clues from the innkeeper!"

Josh nodded.

Yu Ze looked at her: "So the key to unlocking the town's curse should be you."

"I think so." Josh nodded: "I already entered the illusion last night. If nothing else happens, I should be able to enter tonight."
