If he had this money, would his grandson be able to enter a school in the city?

Winter is coming soon, with this money, can he buy a new coat for his wife?

Anyway, the girl in front of me doesn't look like an officer, does she?

Moreover, it has been half a year, so there should be nothing wrong.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will never tell anyone else about this."

Talula put half a gold bar directly into the old man's hand.

Half a gold bar is not too heavy, but the old man always feels a little heavy in his hand, and he is reluctant to give it back.

The old man hid the gold bars on his body. In order to prevent the other party from regretting it, he first said: "You have found the right person by asking me. If you ask other people, they will definitely not tell you the truth."

"Charlie and his wife were killed by an infected person named Sam six months ago."

Infected?Sam?

How could it be Sam?

According to the comparison of blood and fingerprints, the murderer was clearly Angus!

Tallulah was so shocked that she almost lost her voice:

"This is impossible!"

Then, she noticed the suspicious look on the old man's face, realized that she had slipped her mouth, and quickly added: "I mean... under the Duke's rule, how could such a bad incident happen?"

"Oh, you said this, then it has something to do with the Duke's daughter."

related to me...?

The old man didn't notice Tallulah's astonishment at that moment, and he said in a complaining tone: "The Duke's daughter always opens the door for those infected with ore disease, that one named Sam The infected person stole the sweet potatoes from the farmland. He should have been dispatched to the mine long ago, but the daughter of the Duke believed his words and released such a man with dirty hands and feet. .”

"Later, Sam came to the town to take revenge. He took advantage of the night to kill Charlie and his wife, but he happened to be caught when he was running away."

The old man vaguely remembered that it was a very skilled man in black who caught Sam at that time. Almost when Sam came out of Charlie and his wife's house with a pile of belongings, he was pressed to the ground by a man in black.

But he was too scared at the time, didn't dare to look out of the window, and didn't know the identity of the man in black. In order to avoid getting into trouble, the old man simply skipped the part of the man in black.

"After we caught Sam, we wanted to kill him, but the mayor said that lynching is also against the law, so we tied him up and tied him on the square in the center of the town, ready to wait for the next day, gentlemen Come and deal with this criminal."

The old man sighed and said, "If the Duke's daughter hadn't meddled in his business, Charlie and his wife would not have died."

"Fortunately, that young master did not act like the Duke's daughter. He simply executed Sam."

Hearing the old man's words, Tallulah was completely stunned.

Things... How could the truth of things be like this?

Was it because of her kindness that she let Sam go and killed Charlie and his wife?

Angus... didn't want her to feel guilty, so he put all the responsibility on himself?

"I... can I go in and have a look?"

"Of course you can, but it hasn't been cleaned in a long time."

Tallulah took a deep breath, put her trembling right hand on the doorknob, and pushed the door open.

After half a year, the house was already full of dust, and the remains of Charlie and his wife had already been moved out for cremation.

But she accidentally found a letter in a corner.

"To Tallulah—"

"This is... a letter to me?"

Talula saw that the letter was written in the language of Yan Kingdom. She was no stranger to the language of Yan Kingdom since she was a child in Longmen. Driven by curiosity, she opened the letter.

"Talulah, when you opened this letter, you should have known the truth of the matter."

"Although I also hope to be able to hide what happened here forever, I know that maybe one day in the future, you will return to this small town, and you will learn from the townspeople here that what happened that year things."

Chapter 25 Forgive me Tallulah, this is the last time

Tallulah looked at the words on the envelope, and tears welled up in her eyes.

"Forgive me, Tallulah."

"I didn't intend to hide from you. Back then, you couldn't bear the truth of these things."

"You don't have to feel guilty and blame yourself for the death of Charlie and his wife. Sam may be very bad, but he will not risk being executed by the law to kill a couple who has nothing to do with him."

"It's a conspiracy by Kosche."

"He wants you to see the darkness in this land, he wants you to see the evil side of human nature, he wants to corrupt you with vicious curses, you want you to go on with hatred—"

"But I'm going to tell him, no, none of this is going to happen."

"If when you open this letter, I have already become an infected person, then leave the duchy, leave this place, if you still want to believe me, let us agree on a location, go to the northwest, Go to the tundra in the northwest..."

The envelope said to let her go to the tundra in the northwest.

But if she really left the duchy, how could the black snake not come to hunt her down?

Unless, Kosche is too busy to take care of himself——

"Angus, Angus, you don't mean to..."

An inexplicable sense of panic suddenly rose in Tallulah's heart, she clenched the envelope in her hand, turned around and ran outside.

She recalled the location the maid had told her:

"Southwest direction... Soller Mine..."

Talula returned to the off-road vehicle, stepped on the accelerator to the maximum, and drove all the way to the southwest.

Because she was driving too fast, she even accidentally hit a tree on the road, and the off-road vehicle broke down on the spot.

Tallulah didn't have the time to take care of this broken-down off-road vehicle.

She ran in the mud, I don't know how long she walked, I don't know how long she ran.

Mine, mine.

She finally saw the mine.

Smoke, only smoke.

As if this place had been swallowed by flames, the guards in the mine fell to the ground. Their bodies were scorched black, and the ground was also scorched black.

There is interest, there is no interest.

Talula ran desperately into the mine, only fragmented ore and charred bodies along the way.

Tick, tick.

Tallulah stopped in her tracks.

Tears were falling from the corners of her eyes.

The white-haired boy was lying on the mountain of corpses.

"An... Angus!"

Tallulah ran over frantically, and picked up the white-haired boy from the pile of corpses.

"Angus, Angus!"

"Open your eyes and look at me, okay?"

"It's my fault...it's my fault...I shouldn't doubt you, I shouldn't treat you like that, give me another chance, okay?"

Tears had blurred her vision, and endless regret welled up in her heart.

But the boy remained motionless, his body became as stiff and cold as the origin stone.

And behind Tallula, a voice that made her feel sick sounded.

"See? Tallulah."

"The empire of Ursus is in the midst of his ailments. Crops do not grow on barren lands, and only rotten flowers can be seen in dark lands."

"Do you know how he died? It was the Infected... The Infected in the mines hated him as a former nobleman. Your friends died because of you. The land you put everything into doesn't want you .”

"……To shut up."

From Tallulah's arms, a deep male voice suddenly sounded.

"Angus!"

The expression on Tallulah's face was filled with surprise for a moment. She lowered her head and saw the white-haired boy in her arms slowly opening her eyes.

But this scene was completely frightening for Kosiche.

"Do not……"

"How could you possibly be alive?"

Kosche looked at Li Xia alertly.

The other party is clearly dead, his poisonous snakes have done everything for him, and his spells have already confirmed this, but now...

"Who told you that corpses cannot speak?"

Li Xia broke free from Tallulah's arms, and slowly got up.

It wasn't until this time that Tallulah saw that the other party's body was like a large mobile origin stone, rather than the origin stone inlaid in the flesh and blood, it was better to say that the origin stone was inlaid with the residue of flesh and blood.

"This is my origin stone skill... No matter which awakening, there will be two forms of origin stone skills—"

Li Xia grinned and laughed.

Just like the Originium skill he had acquired, the original manipulation of blood became manipulation of flame.

But different from the last time, the "second form" this time did not reach the physical limit through the deterioration of the ore disease, but was activated after his physical death.

"Flesh and blood are weak, but the origin stone soars."

"Kosche, you can kill me as a human being Angus, but can you kill a piece of origin stone? Can you make all the origin stones on this land disappear?"

Li Xia spread her arms.

During the time when his body died and his consciousness hadn't dissipated, he was the master of the origin stone.

Kosiche's snake pupils shrunk.

He took half a step back.

The situation seemed to be somewhat beyond his expectation.

"This piece of land you stand on is full of origin stones everywhere."

"The Origin Stone is an extension of my hands."

"Your fate is in my hands."

There was a hoarse and dull sound from Li Xia's mouth, like a huge origin stone colliding.

"laugh--!"

Spikes formed by countless source stone fragments pierced into Kosiche's heart and lungs in an instant.

"Tallulah..."
