The skeleton man who had turned into slag seemed to have his brain smashed by that punch. He continued to speak fearlessly, "Sir, what should we do now?"

"What else can I do? Chase them! All of them, get out there and find them for me!"

Prince Linton was breathing heavily, and his already deformed face became even more hideous. He even had long fangs growing in his mouth and his eyes were glowing red.

"Whoever you see on the road, kill them all, except Yu Lan. Capture her alive."

Prince Linton laughed strangely. He covered his face with his hands and smiled grimly: "I want her to be alive. I want her to become my doll. Then I will take her back and let my brother take a good look at my beloved toy..."

"Yes Yes!"

The skeletons did not dare to disobey Prince Linton's orders. They all ran away in a hurry in a mess, and some even picked up the debris on the ground lovingly.

But in fact, they were afraid that this blind and brainless thing would offend its master again. If it brought harm to other skeletons, it would be the end of them.

Li Shixi turned into black mist and quickly left the cave, and only stopped when he made sure that the surroundings were temporarily safe.

He put Yu Lan under a tree and asked: "What are you going to do now?"

[What else can I do?] Yu Lan pursed her lips: [That Prince Linton will definitely be angry if he finds out that we stole the house. He will definitely look for me everywhere. The first step will most likely be to go to the village.]

[Let me rest for a while before talking...By the way, please let that person out.]

Li Shixi released Arthur's cocoon according to what Yu Lan said.

Arthur was very happy to regain his freedom. He hurriedly thanked Yu Lan, but then he began to worry again.

"It's over. We have angered the boss now. What should we do?"

"Contact your teammates and tell him the situation. He knows what to do." The little paper man climbed onto Yu Lan's shoulder and spoke softly.

"I will fight the boss directly next. Just don't let those skeletons hurt the NPCs."

"That's it, is that all?" Arthur said with some concern, "It's not good for you to face that boss alone."

Arthur felt bad because Yu Lan looked much younger than him, and subconsciously he didn't want to let such a young child take risks.

Yu Lan rolled her eyes, and the little paper man said angrily: "There will always be someone to fight the boss and guard the boss. If you beat the boss and look back to find that all the other NPCs are dead, you will lose points."

"Besides, didn't you hear what they said about 'materials' and 'feed'? If everyone in the village is captured while I'm fighting, it will only increase their fighting power and will not benefit me."

"So, all you have to do is help me protect the village and don't let the NPCs get captured or killed by them. I suspect you'll get extra points if you can save those NPCs."

Although most of the villagers did not give Yu Lan the kindness she deserved, one thing is for sure, she will settle the score after dealing with Prince Linton.

Besides... not all villagers are bad people.

Perhaps it affected his own interests, Arthur thought about it and agreed: "I understand, I will go find my teammates now."

The little paper man waved his hand, and Li Shixi watched Arthur's back as he left. After he disappeared from his sight, he spoke: "What a sacrifice of life for justice, Young Master Yu."

"Stop mocking me." The little paper man put his hands on his hips and said unhappily, "The boss hates me. It's better to face him directly than to hide. Besides, I always feel that Prince Linton has a strange feeling towards me. Judging from the previous conversation, he seems to have known me for a long time."

The little paper man murmured, and suddenly, everyone present felt a chill. Li Shixi subconsciously became alert, thinking that the boss was chasing him.

The chill was accompanied by a huge sense of oppression. Li Shixi and Mei Qimeng both felt uncomfortable, except for Yu Lan.

She thought about it, and the little paper man asked quietly, "Erwin?"

After the little paper man spoke, the oppressive feeling instantly disappeared. After a while, a man in a robe walked out of the bushes not far away.

He pulled up the brim of his hat and whispered, "Ms. Yu."

"Don't scare my child." The little paper man complained.

"Sorry." Erwin apologized in a low voice, stopping beside Yu Lan but he was hesitant to move forward.

He couldn't believe that in just a blink of an eye, Yu Lan was seriously injured in a place he couldn't see.

At this moment, he deeply realized why Yu Lan said those words...Human life is really fragile. If Yu Lan is not careful, the next time he will see a tattered, silent corpse.

But even so...

Erwin pursed his lips, gently picked up Yu Lan under Li Shixi's vigilant gaze, and arrived at the edge of a lake in an instant.

"What are you going to do?" The little paper man looked up at Alvin curiously, only to see him holding Yu Lan and walking into the lake step by step, letting the cold lake water cover Yu Lan's body.

"Being in the forest or in the water will help your wounds heal faster."

The premise is that there is sufficient spiritual energy. Unfortunately, because of Prince Linton, the whole forest is filled with gloomy energy and even the lake has become a stagnant pool.

However, Yu Lan's body has been transformed by Lilith and can absorb Yin energy, so this pool of stagnant water has little effect on Yu Lan.

Li Shixi stood on the shore, with black fog flying around him, carefully detecting the arrival of the enemy.

Alvin raised his hand and carefully touched the scar on Yulan's neck, but when Yulan noticed it, he quickly put his hand away and pretended nothing had happened.

However, all of this was seen by the little paper man.

Erwin calmed himself down and chanted the spell of recovery in a low voice. As the low and pleasant voice sounded, the spiritual power and Yin energy around him flowed into Yulan's body, healing her wounds and relieving her pain.

But this process was still a bit uncomfortable. Yu Lan closed her eyes to hide her expression and spoke through the little paper man, trying to divert her attention.

"Li Shixi, did you find something down there just now?"

Li Shixi nodded slightly, his expression a little solemn: "There is a familiar feeling, and the spiritual power in the fragments of your paper man has been sucked away."

The little paper man also nodded, then sighed: "It seems that Erwin will have to work overtime again."

Erwin suddenly came back to his senses when he heard his name: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay." The two said in unison: "We have to wait and see."

Li Shixi and the little paper man looked at each other and sighed at the same time.

No wonder all the little paper figures she sent to the forest disappeared. It was estimated that Prince Linton discovered her existence at the very beginning.

"Yulan, be careful. You are his target."

Whether because of the identity arranged in the copy or because of the spiritual energy on his body, Prince Linton first targeted Yu Lan.

Very good, this wave of hatred is full. Yu Lan muttered in her heart, and the little paper man said dissatisfiedly: "I know, I know, I want to sleep for a while."

After saying that, Yu Lan leaned in Erwin's arms, closed her eyes, and planned to rest for a while.

Alvin carefully controlled the surrounding spiritual energy and death energy to treat Yu Lan. Perhaps because she had been nervous for a while and was too tired from the serious injuries, Yu Lan fell asleep unconsciously in the safe environment.

But her brows were still furrowed, and she seemed not to be restful in her sleep.

Erwin sighed softly and stroked Yulan's brow with his fingertips.

"Young man." The little paper man patted him, "You have a very special aura."

Erwin was a little surprised: "Aren't you asleep?"

At this moment, an expression suddenly appeared on the face of the little paper man, which represented that the paper man had a spirit.

It narrowed its eyes and smiled: "I am Yu Lan, and I am not Yu Lan. Don't worry, she is asleep now, and she won't know about the conversation between you and me."

Erwin was silent for a moment, then asked curiously, "What does my aura look like in your eyes?"

“The vibrant branches and the lifeless thorns can actually survive together and even maintain a delicate balance.” The paper man narrowed his eyes and smiled, “I’m curious how you did it.”

Erwin chuckled and said, "What do you think?"

"I don't know. I'm just curious." The little paper man patted Erwin's head again and said earnestly, "I've watched Yu Lan grow up since she was a child. She doesn't have many friends and doesn't know how to get along with others. Don't be angry with her."

"Angry?" Erwin asked in confusion, "Why would I be angry with her?"

The little paper man laughed twice: "You will know later, this child sometimes does things that can really make people angry."

On the other side, Arthur hurriedly ran to find his teammates. He had a prop on him that allowed him to see where his teammates were.

"Aqiao!" Arthur met Aqiao at the edge of the forest, who was about to enter the forest. Aqiao saw that his teammate had returned safely, and asked hurriedly: "Are you okay? What happened?"

Arthur took a breath and told his teammates everything that happened. Seeing his teammates frowning, Arthur spoke again: "All those who were captured were transformed, but Yulan brought them all out. She also asked us to protect the village - no one dares to come to the forest now, right?"

A Qiao shook his head and told Arthur about how the villagers thought Yu Lan was a witch and were going to burn her this morning. "Later, Yu Lan took action. They were so scared by this incident that they all hid in their houses."

"A bunch of cowards." Arthur cursed in a low voice, but at the same time he admired Yu Lan's broad mind: "They all wanted to burn her, but I didn't expect Yu Lan to still want to save them."

Ah Qiao sneered: "I don't know who is the fool... I know the situation, let's go back first."

"Okay." Arthur responded and followed his teammates back.

As he walked, he couldn't help but look back in the direction he had just come from.

I wonder if Yu Lan can come back alive and safe.

Not long after the two men left, they returned to the village and saw two people with strange behavior walking on the road as expected.

Their clothes were tattered, and their exposed skin had a strange luster in the sun, looking like smooth rubber.

coming.

The two men looked at each other, and the next second they simultaneously took out their weapons and fought the two strange humanoid creatures.

The cold environment was not suitable for sleeping, and Yu Lan did not sleep well. She frowned, covered her face, and took a deep breath in annoyance.

"Miss Yu, are you awake?"

Erwin's somewhat surprised voice came from above her head. Yu Lan squinted her eyes and looked at the face above her head, then nodded in a daze.

She sat up from Erwin's arms and took a long time to remember what she had just experienced. She stood up suddenly and moved her body.

Hey, she can move and her body doesn’t hurt anymore?

Wait, did she just see something...

Before Yu Lan could remember what she had just seen, Li Shixi interrupted her thoughts and said, "Come up quickly when you wake up. We have already driven away a wave of skeletons."

Now that she had recovered, there was no need to stay in the water anymore. Erwin carried Yu Lan ashore and shook his sleeves. A pitch-black cane slipped out of his sleeves and was grabbed by Erwin.

Erwin tapped the ground with his cane, and a flame flew out of the cane, circled around Erwin and Yulan, and then disappeared into the air.

The man chuckled, and his deep voice tickled Yu Lan's ears: "I'm sorry for keeping you in the water for so long."

"Wow, it's dry." The little paper man touched Yu Lan's clothes in surprise. The clothes that were originally soaked in water were now completely dry, and her body felt warm as if it had been exposed to the sun.

The little paper man asked curiously: "Young man, is this magic?"

Erwin nodded, held the cane across his chest, and pressed his hands together, causing the cane to disappear between his hands. "The cane is a channel for communication. Although magic can be used directly, communication will be smoother using the cane."

"It's very similar to the magic we practice, but we don't seem to have a channel like the cane, right Master?"

The little paper man touched Yu Lan's head and said kindly, "Okay, Master, it's time for us to settle the accounts."

Yu Lan nodded slightly, but before that, she had something to do.

After communicating with the little paper man, the latter was a little surprised: "Do you know what to do?"

Wouldn't it be easy to know if you just give it a try? After all, experiment is the only criterion for testing truth.

Yu Lan narrowed her eyes and smiled, then took out a talisman paper and drew a talisman on it. As soon as she finished drawing, the talisman paper suddenly caught fire. Yu Lan was not surprised by this, and even put the burning talisman paper into her mouth without changing her expression.

"Ms. Yu, what are you doing?" Erwin was startled and tried to stop her subconsciously, but was interrupted by Li Shixi.

"She's breaking the curse."

"Curse?" Erwin frowned. "Is there a curse on her?"

He didn't notice it when he examined Yu Lan just now.

Li Shixi thought for a moment and said carefully: "Some curses will become one with the human body after lurking in the body for a long time. In this way, you will not be able to find it even if you check it."
