Fairy’s Box

The storm had been roaring, and they didn't know how long it took. At the moment when the wind stopped and the rain dissipated, a faint yellow fog had already appeared on the horizon. From this, it can be inferred that this sudden storm lasted more than one night.

Jasmine was too frightened and was attacked by the cold air of the rain, and finally developed a high fever and fell asleep. Although it is not a serious illness, it is life-threatening if it is delayed for a long time, and it must be treated as soon as possible.

Several people set off in the early morning dew and sunshine, their figures were as fast as electric arcs, flashed through the jungle, and ran fast in the direction of the sun. The speed of the third-order knights was faster than that of a horse.

It only took more than half a day, they rushed out of the primeval forest, as if someone was sheltering in the dark, and they did not encounter the legendary monster along the way.

At the edge of the forest, there is a large area of ​​shrubs, and every short distance, there are large areas of soil exposed, like a worn and bald carpet.

"It's finally out." Carla panted heavily, turned around and glanced at the forest with emotion.

"Let's go. There must be a town ahead. Find out where we are, and then hire a carriage to Lloyd." Yale took a step forward with Morrill on his back.

Of course, the rest of the people had no opinion. With a sense of conquest, big or small, they glanced at the virgin forest triumphantly and walked forward.

Charlene was second to last in the line. Because she was wearing sandals, it was very uncomfortable to walk in the bushes. Her feet were already covered with mud, and they were dark and dirty.

Suddenly, her toes touched a hard object, and the female knight didn't care, just kicked it out with hate.

Boom! The hard object fell right in front of Carla. He glanced at it and saw that it was the skull of a rabbit, and strode over. It's no big deal to find the bones of small animals in the bushes.

While walking with their heads down, everyone found that there were more and more things under their feet, big and small. Just the animals that Charlene could distinguish, there were rabbits, deer, goats, foxes, bison...

Hunters wantonly kill? Or, is there a huge animal farm nearby?

A faint doubt rose in their hearts, and they continued to magnify as they moved forward, until... they encountered the remains of the reindeer.

Carla grabbed the reindeer by the horns and picked it up:

"Who can tell me why there are reindeer corpses in Asia Minor? This thing is an animal in the extreme north, and there is no native species in Rosevia."

"Maybe, a pet kept by a big man, like... Santa Claus." Laurie folded his shoulders and told a cold joke.

"It's a little strange." Yale picked up a skull that looked like a fox, held it in his hand and looked at it, and found that there were faint marks of being eaten on the surface.

"It's eaten by humans." Charlene looked closer and said confidently.

"how do you know?"

"Look at the tooth marks, idiot, how can the marks from wild animals be so well-proportioned and smooth." She raised her chin proudly.

"So that's the case." The knight looked at him with admiration, and as expected, he ate more and noticed more details.

"Then there's no problem. Maybe people in the nearby towns like to eat game, and poaching and smuggling are not under our control." Kara said with a grim smile: "However, we can report it."

"Well, let the agents have a headache." Several people agreed unanimously, and the cloud of suspicion that had just risen suddenly disappeared.

As they moved forward, they found that sparse human footprints began to appear on the ground, and they were confident, which proved that there must be towns or villages nearby.

Before sunset, the knights finally approached the only town in the vicinity, bathed in sunlight, and a quaint city wall stood before them. Looking from the inner side of the city gate, you can see colorful houses forming rainbow-like alleys one by one, stretched between emerald green trees.

Charlene frowned suddenly, pretending to be talking about Hengqiu's announcement: "Hot water, delicious food, and a comfortable bed! All of this is ahead, so why hesitate!? Go ahead! !"

"Let's go!" The four cheered and rushed to the town quickly.

After the last of the team, Yalei, also entered, the brightly colored town seemed to have gone through a hundred years in an instant, and suddenly faded away...

Twilight sunset, withered leaves drifting. Blood-like rays of light fell on the dark city wall.

Inside the city wall stood a solitary high tower, reflected in the blood red of the setting sun, looking very strange. As the setting sun gradually sank, the tower and darkness became one. Looking around, there is a dead silence...

There are not many pedestrians on the street, but they always pass by them in a hurry, as if they are going to participate in some important ceremony.

"A lot of restaurants." The four of them strolled around the center of the street. Within sight, all the stores that were opening were restaurants.

Cara glanced at Jasmine worriedly, and said in a deep voice, "We must find a clinic quickly. If the fever doesn't go away, it will be very detrimental to her health."

Yale pointed to the stone pavement in front of him, a tall man who looked burly and squatted on the side of the road, and said lightly, "Find a local person and ask."

"I'm coming!" Charlene volunteered to greet her, with a sweet smile, she chatted up with a smile: "Hello, we are travelers passing by here, one of our friends is sick, may I ask where is there a clinic nearby? "

"Uh..." The strong man turned his body dully, deep in the lower eye sockets, the pair of eyes were cold and blank, with no black eyeballs at all.

"Uh... uh... um." His mouth seemed to be stuffed with sticky objects, and he made a strange nasal sound while slowly shaking his head.

"You... you mean... no?" The female knight asked dryly, barely keeping a smile.

"Um...um..." The other party nodded again while breathing heavily with swallowing sounds.

Charlene couldn't bear to talk to this guy, so she hurriedly returned to the team, holding her head and frantically scratching her skin: "That person is so strange, it's indescribably disgusting."

"The sound is a little weird, but it shouldn't be said." Carl said with a smile.

"I'm not talking about the sound! It's... Forget it..." She found that she couldn't figure out what the nausea just came to her heart was.

"My God... Come and see." Laurie at the front took a breath and called out to his companions in surprise.

"What's the matter?" A few people stepped forward and looked at it, and suddenly had a stomachache - the strong man squatting on the side of the road was pulling the weeds and stuffing them into his mouth like no one else was there.

"This guy is really abnormal, we don't need to pay attention to him." Yale turned to another pedestrian, and politely asked the same words as Charlene.

This pedestrian was a thin lady wrapped in a black robe, her eyes were bloodshot red, and she didn't answer, just stared at everyone in horror.

"I admit, there are quite a few weirdos here." Under that kind of gaze, he felt as if he had been stung by a fly from top to bottom, and finally came back with a tingling scalp.

Next, the group of people persevered to find someone to ask for directions, but the pedestrians they encountered rarely answered their questions, and occasionally one or two shook their heads.

After being tortured for about half an hour, they were finally unbearable and decided to walk around the town to see if they could find a clinic.
