Time in a collapsing world

After Yae Rin lay down, Yae Sakura crept close to the door with the knife in hand, leaned against the door, took a deep breath, opened the door suddenly, and drew the knife.

But nothing was found.

She did not relax her vigilance, nor did she dare to leave Yae Rin alone to search, so she silently closed the door and retreated, shutting out the terrifying and unknown night.

But she didn't know that at the moment she closed the door and returned to the house, a drop of saliva dripped from the top of where she was standing.

A ferocious shadow was lying quietly on it, suppressing its greed and sniffing the wonderful human fragrance coming from inside the house.

In the early morning of the next day, Yaeli stayed up all night. He glanced at the fruits placed around him, took out one and put it in his mouth to chew.

It was naturally impossible for him to go without eating or drinking for three days, and Lord Yae would not let him starve to death, so before he entered the main hall, the other party had already asked others to put all kinds of food in advance.

Yaeli didn't need to change his kneeling posture to reach out and get it.

"After today, there will be one day...after another day..."

Yae Li muttered in a low voice, glanced at the main hall door, and really wanted to run out.

But thinking that he might never see his father again in the future suppressed this thought.

And we have to go to the valley later, and the white wolf demon inside... The distance is not as far as the city, but it takes several hours to go back and forth.

If he wanted to return to the shrine before midnight that day, Yae Ri had only four hours to find and kill the monster, which was very tight.

I hope you have better luck and don’t make it easy for me to find...

Yaeli threw the core of the fruit on the plate and closed his eyes to rest.

In the village.

Yae Sakura was looking anxiously at Yae Rin who was sweating profusely on the bed. Next to her was a freshly filled basin of water, and a wet towel was placed by Yae Sakura on Yae Rin's hot forehead to cool her down.

For some reason, my sister, who was fine at first, suddenly became ill and suddenly vomited a large mouthful of black blood during lunch.

After vomiting all over Yae Sakura, she didn't even have time to change her clothes. There was a large pool of black blood on it, even a little on her face, and she looked extremely scary.

"Cough, cough..."

Yae Rin's chest was rising and falling with great amplitude, and he looked quite uncomfortable.

"Sister, sister..."

"Rin, don't be afraid, my sister is here, right here!"

Yae Sakura had never seen Yae Rin looking so uncomfortable, and she was at a loss for a moment.

Although Yae Rin would vomit blood when he got sick in the past, it was never as severe as it is now. He had been given herbs and other medicines, but the effect was minimal, and the efficacy of the medicine was even weakening!

Yae Sakura almost cried. Looking at her sister who was suffering from illness on the bed, she showed unprecedented helplessness...

At the same time, just outside the house where the two of them were, an old man who lived next to him heard the slight sound of human voices coming from this supposedly uninhabited house. He approached suspiciously, but he was in the corner. A crystal glowing purple was found.

The old man stepped forward in confusion. Due to the deterioration of perception due to old age, he did not realize that his body was gradually turning gray due to being close to the crystal, and it was almost spreading to his whole body at an extremely fast speed.

"Who left this thing here... It's such a pity that it's so beautiful..."

As he muttered like this, the old man's face gradually lost color with a smile. He took this piece of crystal and walked away from here, wanting to take this rare thing to show to other old guys.

"Huh, huh..."

Inside the room, Yae Rin's heavy breathing gradually subsided, and there was another puddle of black blood on the quilt. It was the sixth puddle she had vomited before.

Yae Rin, who had lost a lot of blood, looked pale. Even though her symptoms had weakened, she still had more air coming out and less air coming in.

"elder sister……"

Yae Rin gave a weak cry, calling back the mind of Yae Sakura who was holding one of her hands and lowering her head as if praying.

"cold?!"

Yae Sakura immediately raised her head and looked at her sister with worry and surprise.

Yae Rin forced a smile to her sister, wanting to tell her that she was fine.

"Hold on a little longer, let's go to the shrine to find my brother!"

Yae Sakura said, and was about to help Yae Rin up, but she didn't expect the other party to shake his head and said: "Brother is in the main hall now...Father will not let us see him..."

"But you vomited blood again! There's still so much blood!"

Yae Sakura had completely forgotten her fear of her father at this time, and just wanted to quickly find her omnipotent brother and find a solution.

"There is nothing my brother can do about my illness. Even if...even if I really see my brother, it will only make him worried..."

"But Rin, your condition is very serious now! The way you looked just now, the way you looked just now... I am really afraid that I will never hear your voice again..."

"Don't worry, sister, I'm much better now..."

"Liar! Your face is obviously so white!"

"Really, look, I've stopped vomiting blood now..."

While laughing miserably, Yae Rin also felt strange. She clearly wanted to vomit out everything in her stomach before, but why didn't she feel that way now?

But Yae Sakura didn't believe it at all, and still wanted to take her sister to find her brother.

"Sister, have you forgotten my brother's instructions? Don't go near the shrine..."

"I haven't forgotten, but now is not the time to care about that!"

"..."

Yae Rin shook his head, "Sister, do you still remember the figure I saw last night?"

"...Could it be that he did something to make your illness worse?!" Yae Sakura thought of this possibility and angrily wanted to draw her sword, but she didn't know where to strike.

"I don't know, but...if he did it, why didn't he just run in and kill me?"

"Rin, don't say such things!"

Yae Sakura rarely scolded her sister, but then she thought of something and said, "Because I'm here? Is he worried that he can't beat me?"

"..."

Yae Rin shook his head, "Maybe... he didn't want to kill me, but just wanted to make me weaker?"

"But you were really close just now..."

Yae Sakura didn't want to say the word "death".

"..."

Her body knew it, and Yae Rin always felt that even if her illness had been in a serious state just now, she would not die for a while, at least... not within the next few days.

"Sister, brother asked us to stay away from the shrine, but you just wanted to take me there. Is this... could this be that person's purpose?"

"..."
