Along the way, Yuanzi saw some craters left by horseshoes, which were the marks of the messenger riding on horseback.
"Listen, Qianqian, there is no insect chirping." Yuanzi listened carefully to the sounds in the forest, it was eerily quiet.
Yan Qianqian listened intently, but there was no sound of insects.
Sister Yan also had something to say about this, "I didn't hear any insects chirping in the forest last night when I was keeping watch. It seemed that the whole forest had fallen asleep."
Mariko looked around, but there wasn't a single bug.
Even if these forests are shiny green, like new plants, it's not normal.
A normal forest has a complete and huge ecosystem, and there shouldn't be a single bug.
"The bugs are starving to death? They shouldn't be." Yuanzi was suspicious and led Yan Qianqian to walk all the way at a faster speed.
Walk until noon and stop to rest and eat jerky, and look at the surrounding environment by the way.
With sharp eyes, Yuanzi saw a black goat flag hanging on a tree on the hillside on the right side. The flag swayed in the wind and made a sound of hunting.
"Come on, go up and have a look." Yuanzi stood up, walked in front, and at the same time swiped the system to call.
Walking up the hillside, Yuanzi saw more than one black goat flag, and at least three trees with black goat flags hanging on them.
What Yuanzi saw was a flat ground surrounded by tall trees. In the center of the flat ground was a flat altar made of stacked square stones. There were some dried bloodstains on the altar, which were bloodstains left during mysterious rituals.
"This is the place where the town held the sacrificial ceremony." Mariko said.
This place is the closest to the town, and only they have this kind of sacrifice condition, other villages do not have this kind of condition.
Yuanzi walked around the scene of the mysterious ceremony, with bulging veins on his forehead, and a fantastic scene flashed before his eyes.
Yuanzi saw a woman wearing a black goat mask and wearing a black robe that dragged the floor, shouting the name of the God of Fertility, and won the support of thousands of believers. All the spirits gathered together and collectively uttered the voice of saving the child.
"This feeling... is the breath of the Takehara Witch." Mariko thought of the beautiful words in the diary.
After wandering around, Mariko decided to leave quickly with the two of them to see what's going on in the town as soon as possible.
If the Takehara Witch didn't control the scene, but just built a tunnel to hide and wait for the opportunity, then Mariko would not know how to contact the master, and then he would have to find a way to live in the wild.
Chapter 261 The Town Where the Takehara Witch Lives
The sun was about to set, and the three of Yuanzi finally walked out of the quiet mountain forest without the sound of insects and birds when the sun fell to the horizon.
The mountains and forests behind are getting weirder and weirder, they are full of vitality, but they seem to be dead, without any vitality at all.
"It's like the tomb of the dead, it's too scary." Yan Qianqian commented afterwards, and sister Yan shrank her neck in fright.
As night fell, the three of them camped to rest, and Yuanzi continued to explain to them how to stay awake while sleepwalking.
Mariko knew it was dangerous and said it was to keep them awake.
The astral world is dangerous, but as long as you don't go out to sea, the danger can be ignored.
In other words, the saying that if you don't die, you won't die is equally valid in the star realm.
Sister Yan already has the basic inspiration of sleepwalking, so she must learn the method of sobriety, otherwise she will sleepwalk into the sea of stars in the future, which will be dangerous. Yuanzi doesn't want to see Sister Yan become a lunatic.
In the middle of the night, the two fell asleep again.
Yuanzi felt the aura of the two silently. Fortunately, there was no aura of sleepwalking in the astral world, so there was no need to disturb their dreams.
When it was time to rotate the vigil, Maruzi woke up little Lolita and put herself to sleep.
After a while, Yuanzi sleepwalked through the gate of the astral world again, and came to the isolated island in the star sea.
This time, Yuanzi's mental strength has been fully recovered, and she is full of energy.
Mariko closed his eyes and imagined the structure of the electromagnetic pistol, which Mariko didn't use much in sci-fi dungeons.
However, during the system's substitute shooting, the brain automatically analyzes the mechanical structure to ensure the ultimate hit rate, so at that time, the brain memorized the internal structure of the gun.
Mariko spent 2 minutes fantasizing, and after exhausting all his mental power, he barely reproduced the electromagnetic pistol in its entirety.
Yuanzi weighed the electromagnetic pistol in his hand. Since it was a fantasy, the weight of the material was lighter than imagined.
Taking a look at the inside of the barrel, it was clean and smooth, and the properties of the material were not bad for the guns in Bibo City. Mariko used his brain to imagine a smooth, frictionless, extremely conductive, and extremely magnetic material for the barrel.
The battery is also supplemented with electric energy when it is transformed, and the bullets are also ready in the magazine. This pistol can perfectly exert the power of kinetic energy weapons.
But also because transfiguring this small pistol exhausted Yuanzi's mental power, Yuanzi didn't plan to explore the sea of stars today.
Standing on the beach to test the gun, point the pistol at the head of an animal on the waves, and press the trigger.
Chicking the barrel of the gun, a screeching sound came out, and the bullet was energized, gaining the blessing of a powerful electromagnetic force, passing through the magnetic field to cut the magnetic field, and the kinetic energy exploded.
In the next instant, the head of an animal on the sea surface was exploded, and the waves scattered and turned into sea water.
Seeing this, Mariko was very satisfied, calling for the gate of the astral world in his heart, stepped back calmly and stepped on two steps, and returned to the sea of his spiritual consciousness.
……
Back in reality, it was already midnight.
Yuanzi kept vigil until morning, woke up the two girls, made a simple breakfast, and set off lightly after eating.
Thousands of meters ahead is a flat farmland plain. Yuanzi saw the fertile farmland and the villagers harvesting rice happily.
Yuanzi saw someone, and led them to the nearest farmland.
The people harvesting rice in the farmland saw someone coming from afar, and when the three of them approached, the farmer came out to greet them.
"Good day, Mrs. Witch, the Takehara Witch is waiting for you inside." The farmer originally wanted to call her a lady, but seeing Mariko's extraordinary aura, with the stunning aura of a formal witch, he changed his name to Mrs. Witch.
"Yeah." Yuanzi felt a little relieved when he saw that the farmer still looked sensible.
The three of Yuanzi walked for another half an hour, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a farmland where a family was farming with their natural instincts, and the scene was full of youthful vitality.
Looking a little further, there are dozens of people who devote their unlimited energy to noble causes.
Seeing this, Qianqian led Sister Yan back, walked to her side, and blocked her view.
Mariko hesitated inwardly, whether to go in or not.
The wanton scene of youth that I saw just now is by no means a normal phenomenon, but the occurrence of such a scene in the town under the rule of the Takehara Witch must be the witch's indulgence in their carnival.
"Could it be that the Takehara Witch can't manage it?" Mariko had a momentary thought—turned around and left the town.
"Are you still in?"
"It's all here, and everyone's sanity is still there. It should be fine during the day. We can go in to see the severity of everyone's erosion. If it is too serious, we will leave in the afternoon no matter what we say." Yan Qianqian gave a safe opinion.
The main reason is that the three of them have all walked to the farmland area of the town, and the farmer will definitely inform the Takehara Witch afterwards.
If you pass by the door and don't enter, wouldn't that chill the heart of the master.
You must know that this dream will last for a whole year. If the master is not dead, if you don't manage the relationship between master and apprentice now, there may be changes in the future.
Mariko heard that this was true, and besides, his combat effectiveness was not weak, so he asked some farmers along the way about the combat effectiveness of the Takehara Witch, as well as the number of soldiers in the town and their fighting methods.
A few minutes later, Yuanzi learned that the town mainly fought with cold weapons, and the Takehara Witch didn't have any supernatural attack methods, but it could not be ruled out that the townspeople who saw the Takehara Witch's attack were all dead.
Entering the small town, the more the three of them walked in, the more scenes of wanton youth they saw.
The two looked ahead, and sister Yan occasionally cast a curious look, but she was suppressed by her sister and couldn't see more pictures.
Leaving the fertile farmland area, the small town buildings come into view.
Tower-like buildings are arranged randomly, and the road in the town is made of small stones and sand, which is not as sticky as dirt roads and is very strong.
The townspeople in the town are basically linen shirts with gray skins, and they open small shops selling some simple handmade products.
Mariko noticed that some couples were running a store, and suddenly became interested, so she liberated her nature in the store and sang the song of Liu Ying, which is popular in the town.
The rest of the townspeople passed by without changing their expressions and didn't care about such things. This is already one of the daily routines of the town.
Yuanzi is always using the system to fight on behalf of him. If there are any blind men on the road trying to catch them, Yuanzi's dagger does not have eyes, and the system will never show mercy in fights, just poking at the dead point.
Three rickshaw drivers passed by, and were amazed by Yuanzi's temperament, and lowered their heads respectfully.
"Master Witch, please get in the car, I will take you to the church of the Witch of Takehara."
Yuanzi is a witch, a noble class in the town, and should not walk like a commoner, so Yuanzi and the three sat in the rickshaw driver.
There were only two of the three cars, Yan Qianqian and Sister Yan were in the same car, and there was no one in the third car, so they left tactfully, looking for potential nobles.
Yuanzi took out the dagger, now that the three of them are in two cars, she has to keep an eye on Yan Qianqian's situation.
Although the couples in the small town had a brainless carnival, they did not attack a witch like Yuanzi. When everyone saw Yuanzi, they all showed expressions of worship from afar, so the three of them arrived at the church by car all the way without incident.
After arriving at the church, Yuanzi took out the smallest currency in his pocket, paid the fare, and the coachman left respectfully.
The church in the town is three stories high, with tall spiers overlooking the town, walls made of stacked stones, and colorful variegated glass windows.
In front of the tall church, believers came in and out.
Every believer saw Yuanzi's stunning Lolita costume, which is not something ordinary people can wear, and they all came over to say hello.
After a while, an old woman in a black robe appeared at the door, looking at Yuanzi with surprise on her face.
"Mariko... have you broken through the shackles of sobriety?"

Chapter 262 You Don't Belong To Them
Mariko didn't know the other person's name, and didn't feel the temperament of the witch of Takehara, so she probably wasn't Takehara, so she nodded silently and didn't speak.
The pastor, Ms. Ma, was wearing a capless black robe and her hair was coiled. She came over and took Yuanzi's hand, and squeezed the palm, which was very soft.
"Come with me...by the way, is this your friend?"
"Well, I know them in the village. I saw that they are very talented, so I accepted them as apprentices. Now they are learning from me." Yuanzi said slowly.
The pastor was very surprised. She took in two apprentices as soon as she accepted it. Can you teach it?
"Let me see."
Miss Pastor touched Yan Qianqian's little hand, and then squeezed sister Yan's little hand. This person seemed to have an unusual fondness for palms.
"The temperament is really different. It looks like a witch embryo with potential at first glance. Master Takehara Witch will be very happy when she finds out." The priest said happily.
"Follow me, the messenger told you about your breakthrough, but you are still an apprentice during the period when you are not certified by Mrs. Takehara Witch." The church priest explained.
The three of Mariko walked into the church with the pastor of the church. Inside the church, there were many believers sitting on chairs, reciting sacred scriptures with their heads down.
Mariko shuttled through it, listening to those sacred scriptures without any fluctuations.
And the believers were also immersed in the great mysteries, without raising their heads.
After crossing the main hall of the church, she came to the side hall, and then she found that the pastor was leading her to the underground passage.
This reminded Yuanzi of the basement of the church in Xiaozhuang Village.
The basement Mariko had also been opened, and it was actually a small prison cell, which seemed to be used to deal with some dark things.
Mariko didn't use the dark cell at the time, so nothing happened.
Now suddenly seeing the pastor of the church lead her into the underground tunnel, Yuanzi thought of some dark things, could the master be a big female devil?
So Mariko put his hand into Lolita's inner pocket, and clenched the dagger slightly.
"Are we going to the basement?" Mariko said.
"Yes, the Witch is in the basement, carrying out a great cause."
When the pastor said these words, there was endless brilliance and holiness on his face.
Both Yuanzi and Yan Qianqian gathered their spirits silently, feeling not very good.
