Elf Dark Insect Master

Chapter 847 Xilan Town

By dawn the next day, everyone's faces were not very good.

In the middle of the night, two things happened that frightened everyone on duty.

The first thing was that outside the tightly closed window, there was an intermittently dinging sound. It sounded like a woodpecker outside, pecking at the window outside. Thinking of the human-headed crow before, everyone was confused. If you dare to open the window to see what is pecking at you, every time this sound comes out, it makes the people on duty panic.

The second thing is outside the door. Once they relax, they will hear the sound of many people walking around and talking in the corridor outside. The sound will float in quietly if they plug their ears with cloth, but they can concentrate. If you listen to them, they will suddenly disappear without a trace. The scary thing is that once you listen to this sound for a long time, people will unknowingly get up and want to open the door, which makes them have to The two night watchmen stared at each other, forcing each of them to be safe only if they were so tired that they fell asleep directly after being highly concentrated.

What happens when you open the window?

What will happen if you open the door?

They didn't know that Wutong was not willing to gamble.

Finally, when it was morning, Wutong thought it might be less dangerous, so he woke everyone up and left the room.

However, those who got up earlier than them were the housekeepers and servants. Even if the master did not get up until seven or eight o'clock, as servants they must get up at dawn or even earlier to do their work. Well prepared for all kinds of waiting.

"This is the life of an aristocrat." Eric whispered enviously.

"It seems to be a ghost from hundreds of years ago. I don't know why it just appeared recently." Wutong agreed in a rare joke.

Although he said this verbally, he had doubts and speculations in his heart. Maybe there was not necessarily some ghost controlling everything behind the scenes.

The housekeeper quickly found them and took everyone to introduce the places such as washing and dining and some rules.

Along the way, both servants and butlers behaved very normally.

But it is this kind of normality that makes people feel very abnormal

They are not even surprised by the "fancy clothes" worn by Wutong and others.

Although it may be explained that they are now set as adventurers, and it is normal to be strange, but these people behave too normal.

In other words, the normal things that appear in such a weird place will make people feel abnormal.

Because the owner hadn't woken up yet, Wutong had another idea and simply left the main house with others to try to explore the place further.

In the early morning, there was a faint morning mist outside. When everyone walked out of the mansion, the scene they saw was completely different from yesterday.

The grass on the lawn is green, and the flowers in the garden are full of dew. Although the fog is light, you can see through the woods outside. Even if you listen carefully, you can hear the sound of gurgling water coming from there.

This is completely a suburban scene, no longer weird at all from yesterday.

The people behind Wutong were all surprised to varying degrees. Tifa even opened her mouth and said in a daze: "We have actually traveled back hundreds of years."

It would be great if it really traveled through time

"No." Wutong shook his head. He had to prevent their luck at this point, and said directly and coldly: "Whether you believe it or not, I have actually experienced traveling through time and space, and I have also seen Celebi who can travel through time. The phantom spirit of time and space, but this time, I didn’t feel the same touch as last time.”

He thought to himself that maybe it would be more suitable to replace the touch with energy fluctuations.

"What Wutong did you travel through time and space?" Hongling was surprised. Like everyone else, her eyes suddenly focused on him.

Everyone slowly prepared to walk around the main house of the big house, as if they were admiring the place. Wutong walked in front, nodding at this time and replied: "That was when I was traveling in Kanto. At that time, I thought While I was going to the south for vacation, I also challenged the Orange League, but I encountered a deserted island during my trip, and ended up going back hundreds of years, and now there is still living evidence."

Wutong looked around and found nothing in particular staring at them, so he simply released the Wind Speed ​​Dog.

He didn't mention it before, and everyone didn't feel it, but now after hearing Wutong's experience, they looked at the wind speed dog and could easily see that there were obvious differences between this wind speed dog and ordinary wind speed dogs. Not only The body shape has more explosive and strong muscle lines, and it also has a ferocious and primitive temperament that is difficult to describe in words.

If the difference was only a few hundred years, they might not feel so obvious, but in fact, the era of Aino's birth was more than a thousand years ago.

Before the circle was completed, Wutong and the others saw Linghua's group of people walking towards them.

"What happened to you last night? Why didn't you open the door?" Captain Junsha stood directly in front of the black-haired boy and stared at him.

Wutong was about to say something, but when he saw two of the people in Linghua's team, his eyelids suddenly couldn't help but twitch.

And his companions were even more unable to control their expressions and demeanor, looking behind Linghua in horror.

Wutong quickly thought that he should not be too alarming, and immediately turned to look at his companions, and shouted in a deep voice: "Whoever told you to look around, please lower your head."

At this time, the black-haired boy was so irritable that both Linghua and Fenglu on the opposite side looked surprised. They didn't know why the young boy who thought he was quite clever before had such a big change.

"Yes, what are you looking at?"

There was a faint voice behind Linghua and Fenglu. They turned around and saw that it was the young man who was clamoring for a companion from before.

At this time, his face looked a little weird.

The two of them felt strange. Linghua frowned and scolded him: "Don't make trouble, now is the time for us to work together."

After saying that, Linghua turned back and looked at the black-haired boy and his companions. Holding back her inner anger, she said, "I know you are powerful trainers, but the danger we are encountering now cannot be faced by just a few people." , now we should unite well to tide over the difficulties."

"Sorry, it was your invitation that put us in this unexpected danger. I think it would be hard for me to believe you if you couldn't find a relatively obvious escape opportunity here." Wutong was concerned about the number of people on the other side. Although his words were unpleasant, he still Not wanting to fall out, he continued: "You investigate yourselves, and we will find a way to get out on our own."

Having said this, Linghua and Fenglu originally wanted to say something, but Wutong had already turned around and left with his companions.

"These people are too stupid. Anyone who has watched horror movies knows that the most taboo thing is to split up." A police officer whispered, very dissatisfied with the attitude of those people.

"It's just, isn't it just a few trainers who think they are so great." Another police officer echoed in a low voice.

Linghua and Fenglu looked at each other and sighed. What the other said before leaving just now said that they had no position or qualification to persuade. It was indeed the invitation of the two of them that put the other into this weird danger.

It's not that Wutong had promised to help, this was a violation of his agreement, but no one expected that the danger would suddenly become so unimaginable.

After the separation, the people on Wutong's side were very confused.

"Why don't we cooperate with them, even to exchange information?" Wu Dou couldn't understand. The power of a group of people is greater than that of separate people.

"Stop talking about those two teenagers." Eric recalled that the teenager asked strangely what he was looking at. He also thought about the fact that Wutong explained that the two teenagers were missing last night and now they have appeared again. His heart was filled with excitement.

"It's really not suitable to act with them, but we could have asked more questions just now to see what information they have." Hongling didn't quite understand Wutong's fierce reaction.

Wutong stopped and looked at the gate of the mansion not far away, then turned his head, looked at everyone, and said in a calm tone: "The reason is very simple, I don't trust them, and they can't trust me in this situation. I even I doubt whether the experience that Linghua told us in the restaurant outside is true. Maybe her memory has been distorted, and the people behind the scenes deliberately let her out to lure more people here."

After saying this, the other six people were shocked. Following this line of thinking, it seemed that the most correct choice was to draw a clear line with them just now.

"Is it really possible to distort memory?"

"Yes, some powerful elves with super powers can do it. I have encountered such things before when I traveled."

Regarding the question from the photographer who was not a trainer, it was Hongling who answered him.

This is not just a matter of extraordinary power, and the information about extraordinary power in this world has not been banned among the people. It’s just that most urbanites don’t know about it because they haven’t had personal contact, or they don’t believe it because they haven’t experienced it. Just take it as a boast made by some people on TV or the Internet, but if someone comes forward to speak out, they will not stubbornly refuse to believe it.

"Now, can we leave here?"

At this time, they could see the situation outside the iron gate, and Miss Tifa was feeling frightened. She was not a trainer and had no elf protection, so she was far less confident than her other companions.

"Yes, but there is no point in escaping here." Wutong quickly answered her and explained: "No matter whether everything here is true or false, the person who put us here must have something he wants us to do. The more appropriate thing now is to go back and talk to him. The old owner of this mansion continues to be in contact, and if there are no accidents, the exorcism he talked about last night should be a clue."

"I don't know how long we will stay here. If we don't eat, I'm afraid we won't be able to hold on for long." Hongling thought of a more practical problem.

The others also agreed. If it hadn't been for the sumptuous dinner last night, their stomachs would be growling with hunger now.

Even so, after one night, they all felt somewhat hungry.

"Then try to resolve the matter as soon as possible, or endure it until you can't bear it anymore."

Wutong could only answer this way. If he could be sure that this was traveling through time and space, he didn't want to go hungry. But if this place was an illusion or something else, then only a ghost would know what the food he ate was originally.

When they returned to the long dining table in the room, they didn't even drink water, which attracted strange looks from others.

The excuse Wutong made was that they could not eat during these days due to their religious beliefs, and had to show their piety by fasting and enduring hunger and thirst.

For this reason, neither the owner of the mansion nor anyone else can forcefully distort other people's religious beliefs.

Noble etiquette varies from person to person.

The family in this place is very particular about eating and not talking. Everyone can only wait quietly until the meal is over. After Vettel picked up a wet towel and wiped his mouth, he rinsed it with water, and after spitting it out, he felt refreshed. , sitting in the master's seat, looking up at everyone.

"Everyone is invited to come over this time. The person who invited you should have explained the reason clearly to everyone. Last night was delayed by the birthday party, so there will be no delay today. If everyone has no other problems, let's go out together."

At this time, Wutong spoke before anyone else and said: "But I don't think the person who invited me knows the specific details. I have to trouble the Baron to explain it to us carefully on the way."

"No problem." Vettel nodded with a smile, and with his rich figure, he looked kind-hearted.

The ancient aristocratic titles in the Hezhong area usually did not represent the level of status, but only the size of the fiefdom. Some barons with smaller fiefdoms, if they were royal nobles, that is, the owner was a member of the royal family, then their status was higher than that of neighboring barons with larger fiefdoms. It is normal for a viscount to be taller.

Wutong overheard a lot of information last night and understood that the current ancient owner of this mansion was not a rich man, but a noble knight. However, the glory only exists for the ancestors. The title of the ancestors has been inherited until now. There is not much left, and they can barely keep this title, plus the jurisdiction of the fiefs for dozens of miles nearby. In the past, they would be looked down upon by those powerful nobles, jokingly calling them "rich nobles".

After leaving the mansion, a group of people sat on several oxcarts pulled by buffaloes and headed along the gravel road to a small town a few miles away.

There are three towns and villages in Baron Vittel's territory. The smallest village has a population of only about twenty households, followed by a small town with more than fifty households, and finally a small town with hundreds of households.

What they are going to now is the most prosperous town called Xilan Town.

On the way, the two groups headed by Wutong and Linghua finally understood what the exorcism was about.

It turned out to be a cemetery outside the town of Zealand. Accidents have occurred frequently in recent years. This year, it has affected the daily life of the town, so Vettel had to pay attention to it and specially invited the official investigation team from the nearby Paradise City, as well as from A group of powerful adventurers hired by the Adventurer's House hope that both parties will work together to resolve this matter as soon as possible.

But Vettel didn't actually know what happened in detail. After getting to the town, he asked the mayor of Xilan Town and related personnel to find out.
