The lord is red again

I had no choice but to separate from the old hunter Charles.

He wanted to chase him, but he was left behind. After chasing him barefoot for a while, he completely lost him at a corner.

The maze-like architectural style of the fox cave is weird. The road planning that is afraid that people can distinguish the direction from it, the towering walls that block the view from time to time, and the highly similar architectural styles are like one piece of incomprehensible puzzle after another, messing up in the mind.

It was getting dark, and he held the torch, as if holding the last ray of sunset in his hand.

The surroundings gradually darkened, and the light emitted by the torch was thin. It was the first time he used the word "slender" to describe the firelight.

The firelight was sharp like a steel needle piercing the ground, dispersing the shadows and making his own shadow sharp and slender.

In the dark ahead, he saw a hunched figure. After approaching, he was startled by the other party's face and couldn't help but shout "Fuck".

This is a man with ugly birthmarks and tumors on his face. His twisted spine requires him to rely on a wooden stick to move.

I almost subconsciously raised the wooden stick in my hand.

"Don't hit me, don't hit me, woooo~" The ugly man raised his hands to cover his face in fear. "Don't hit me, please."

He was begging, which made the undead a little embarrassed.

And there was no blood bar, and the other party was not hostile.

"Sorry, I thought it was something..." I slowly put down the wooden stick in my hand.

"I'm sorry, I look so ugly." The ugly man apologized, bowing to the undead sideways, but because of his physical disability, this action became very difficult and crooked.

I was even more embarrassed: "Don't, I don't usually judge people by appearance. I apologized first, sorry."

I came from a harmonious society, received a normal education, and as a normal college student, I like to play some bad and hot memes on the Internet, but I have absolutely upright values, which is also the current situation of most people.

There is nothing wrong with apologizing to an NPC.

Moreover, he could feel the fear from the other person's heart. The ugly disabled man in front of him was a living person.

"Are you apologizing to me?" The man couldn't believe it. His dry fingers pointed at the tip of his nose, and half of his high cheekbones under the firelight were surprised.

"Yes, I almost hit you, so I apologize to you." I nodded and didn't think there was anything wrong with it.

They actually started a chat on the topic of apology, which didn't look like a pre-designed conversation in the game.

He had learned about the relevant videos long before he was qualified to test the game, but he was skeptical about those edited videos, and many people would go crazy in the game, and the conversation was not normal.

After entering the game today, he almost didn't meet a normal person. Everyone avoided him. The old hunter Charles was a very standard riddle man, so when the unexpected chat started, I was very surprised.

"What's your name?" he asked.

"Edwin," the man said, "I've been called this since the day I was born."

"Edwin?" I was smart, and his knowledge was not returned to the teacher so quickly. Obviously, this name was a wish that would never be realized for the man in front of him.

No!

He suddenly realized that this was the first NPC in the fox cave who was willing to communicate with him, and it was a highly intelligent NPC, which meant that the other party must have a mission hidden in him.

"Edwin, why are you here?"

"Some people are crazy, and more and more," Edwin said tremblingly, "Sometimes they rush into the house and take people away. Today there are more, I'm scared."

"Crazy?" I thought of some information I got from chatting with other undead people before. Could it be that the plague swept here again?

But he didn't see any plague-ridden figures. The villagers just had a slightly whiter skin and looked a little weaker. Moreover, they would do grape business with the outside world, so there shouldn't be so many problems.

The performance of Edwin and the old hunter Charles in front of him also proved that they were not lying.

Edwin nodded.

"Then, where did you take those people?" I asked.

Edwin said, "To the vineyard."

"Vineyard?"

Edwin said in shock, "Those villagers have gone crazy, but that was the lady's order, so they kept arresting people."

"So you escaped?" I felt that the NPC's language was a little incoherent. He tried to ask who the lady was, but the only answer he got was "A lady is a lady."

"I just want to find a place to hide," Edwin said, "Find a safe place. My home is no longer safe, but I walk too slowly, and it's getting dark. I can only hide here. People from the vineyard will come after dark."

"Wait a minute!" I turned around and looked around. He dropped the pot lid and wooden stick in his hand, and then laboriously brought miscellaneous items from the side, a pile of pottery jars, sacks, and finally two wooden vine baskets.

The unexpected surprise was that he found a pitchfork under the basket, and it also came with a weapon called [Blood Curse: Attacking has a chance to make the enemy enter a bleeding state].

"Hide here and don't make any noise!" I used some things to block Edwin. "If someone similar to me comes over, you should take the initiative to speak and say that you know me."

"I Shang Zao Ba? What's your name?" Edwin asked.

"Yes, we are together!" He nodded and said, "They won't hurt you as long as they hear my name."

"That's great." Edwin sighed, as if he envied the absolute trust between the undead.

I Shang Zao Ba continued, "I'll find a place for you to hide and help you avoid those people in the vineyard."

"Thank you."

I Shang Zao Ba smiled and accepted the thanks.

He held a torch in his left hand and a pitchfork in his right hand, and strode away.

I took a task by myself. Although this task seemed to have no reward, it seemed quite meaningful.

I Shang Zao Ba got lost several times while wandering in the alley until it was completely dark.

He saw a family with a light on, and walked up to knock on the door.

The houses of the residents in the fox cave are very peculiar. The door must be a solid whole piece, which looks very heavy, as if they think that there is a door heavy enough to block the trouble outside.

"Get out!" A male's restless voice came from inside.

Then there was the sound of "pattering".

It was not the sound of rain, but someone was imitating the sound of "pattering" with their mouth. He heard it clearly. It was a girl.

She kept saying: "pattering~"

I Shang Zao Ba cleared my throat: "Hello, I want to ask if there is a safe place to spend the night."

"Get out! Stinking stranger!"

I Shang Zao Ba raised my hand and knocked on the door several times, but this time no sound came out from inside, including the "pattering" sound.

He kicked the door angrily and turned away.

The power was cut off yesterday. Anyway, there are still 12 days, and there is still 160,000 yuan to complete the target this month, more and more.
