The Robbery Order of the Horse Bandits

Yu Yue sat on the stool bored, watching the old lady come and go to clean the house, it was a bit funny - anyway, it will be reset later, so why clean it now?

Reset is a word she learned from An Yao.

Seeing that the old lady had already sat down to drink tea, Yu Yue stood up and stretched, and just as she opened the door to get some air, she saw two people walking up the path.

It was An Yao holding Yin Yong.

Her heart skipped a beat, will anything happen?

Yu Yue trotted over and asked, "What's going on? What's the matter? Is it possessed by a ghost?"

An Yao frowned, shook her head and said, "I don't know, she's just like this all of a sudden."

An Yao put Yin Yong on the stool and sat firmly, and found that although she no longer trembled, she was a little listless, as if she had lost all strength.

Yu Yue poured Yin Yong a glass of water, but she knew how to reach out for the glass, she seemed to be sane.

An Yao sat across from her, watched her drink a few sips of water, and finally calmed down a bit, before asking, "Is it better? Did you find anything?"

The only thing An Yao can think of now is that Yin Yong may have seen some details that she didn't notice, and was shocked.

Yin Yong held the cup, bit her lip, and said, "I seem to know who that banshee worshiped."

As soon as these words came out, both Yu Yue and An Yao were shocked.

Does she know the monsters in this wilderness?

how is this possible.

To be honest, this area is actually the edge of Xiayang Cliff, even Yu Yue doesn't know about it, how does Yin Yong, a native of Miaojiang, know?

"what do you mean……?"

"I'm an orphan." Yin Yong said suddenly. "I don't have a father, and my mother abandoned me when I was young."

An Yao nodded, the original book did say that Yin Yong was an orphan.

"When I was young, I saw that other people had mothers, but I had no mother. Other children said that I was a bastard. They said that when my mother was pregnant with me, she was not married, so I threw myself into the river with shame and anger." Yin Yong's voice trembled slightly, obviously I remembered something painful. "I asked the leader, and he just said that my mother would come back one day. But my mother didn't come back until he died. So I think he just made up a lie to deceive me."

"When I grow up and become more sensible, I wish she was really dead, otherwise why would she abandon me?" Yin Yong smiled wryly, and continued. "But, the name I heard that banshee chanting just now is my mother's name, Panqing, Yin Panqing."

This name is very special, and it is almost impossible for a second person to take it.

Yin Yong curled up and hugged her legs. When she heard this name, she was in a state of confusion—even if the banshee wasn't her own mother, she must have a very close relationship with her.

Could it be the mother who trapped them here?

The closer she gets to the truth, the more frightened she becomes.

An Yao stroked her hair: "It's not sure yet, don't worry about it, we'll talk about it after we figure it out."

Several people were silent for a moment, and the old woman came in with a teapot.

An Yao watched her walking back and forth, and suddenly said: "Old lady, do you know who Yin Panqing is?"

The old lady didn't simply shake her head or nod this time, but just looked at An Yao and said, "Do you know Panqing? She is a witch in the village."

witch?

An Yao looked at Yin Yong, the term witch is not commonly used in the Central Plains.There is only one witch mentioned in the book, and that is Yin Yong.

But the name Yin Yong was taught by Xingyuan.

Yin Yong hurriedly stood up and asked, "Is she from this village?"

The old woman shook her head: "Ten years ago, she suddenly came here and lived in this cabin. Looking at her clothes, she looks like someone from Miaojiang."

As soon as these words came out, Yin Yong slumped back to the chair.

Since she was a child, she has been scorned and ridiculed by others. She has no friends or relatives. Even before the leader adopted her, she could only beg along the street.In the end, when I arrived at Xingyuan Sect, although the leader was very kind to her, he couldn't always be with her after all. Those older members of the church were full of evil intentions, and often secretly bullied her when they saw her being favored.

At that time, how she wished to have a mother.

Every time when she was about to die, she fantasized that her mother would come back tomorrow, and her mother would drive away all those who bullied her.

But no.

When the old leader died and she lost her last support, she fled out of Miaojiang overnight and slept in the open all the way, she no longer harbored such ridiculous fantasies.

She excused her mother, she thought, she must be dead.

Now knowing that she is really dead, Yin Yong's hatred for her mother suddenly disappeared.

She hopes that her mother is still alive, no matter if she abandons her heartlessly, or beats or scolds her, even if she never sees her again in this life.She also hopes that her mother is still alive and well, that's all.

An Yao looked at Yin Yong, she stared blankly at the kettle on the table, wondering what she was thinking.

She opened her mouth a few times, but still couldn't say anything - she really didn't know what words to comfort Yin Yong.

But it didn't take long for her to worry, and the door of the wooden house opened.

It was the others who came back.

An Yao didn't finish the follow-up of the Banshee, but they did.

"The banshee is standing there, waiting for the zombie cavalry to pass by." Si Chen looked a little puzzled. "She seemed to hate those horse bandits very much. She chopped them into pieces, and picked up the turbans on their heads and took them away."

An Yao recalled that the headscarves that the banshee threw into the basin were her spoils.

"Also, I got this." Si Ye took out an arrow tied with a red cloth strip. "It wasn't there when we looked at it just now. It was inserted on the door frame of a family."

Yu Yue took the arrow and looked at it for a while and said, "Is this the horse bandit's order to rob and kill?"

Si Chen nodded and said, "Horse bandits usually shoot an arrow at the house they like, which means they have robbed their family. If they don't get the money to redeem them before dark, the hostage will die."

Yu Huan said "ah": "I remembered, the leader of the group of ghosts is a little girl, and she is still tied with a rope. Could it be that she was the one kidnapped by the horse bandits?"

The old woman added water to the few people who came in, and suddenly put down the jug and looked at the window. As expected, the banshee appeared again, looking at them with a complicated expression outside the window.

This is the third round.

The banshee still didn't come in this time, she just took a look and disappeared.

In this way, the banshee is also a puppet in the cycle of compliance.

Several people pieced together the information, and the sequence of events probably started with the sound of horseshoes, followed by the spread of miasma.At the same time, the banshee began to worship Yin Panqing, and the ghost came out of the house in the small town, shuttled through the woods along a certain route, and finally jumped into the cauldron.After the ghost dances, the banshee will go down the mountain and meet the zombie group hand-to-hand on the path. Then the banshee kills one-sidedly. After getting the spoils, she comes to the wooden house and takes a look at the old woman.

An Yao thought about it for a while. It is known that the ghost is from the villagers, the horse bandit is from outsiders, and Yin Panqing and the banshee are from the side. Then, the existence of the old woman is very strange.

She was neither a ghost nor an outsider, nor did she appear to have any special abilities.Is she detached from this cycle, is it just to serve tea and water to those who strayed into the enchantment?

But she responds to special words.

Cloudy and hopeful, should be one of the special words.

An Yao tentatively asked: "Was Pan Qing killed by a horse bandit?"

The old woman nodded.

"Were the villagers killed by horse bandits?"

The old woman shook her head.

An Yao was a little confused.

The horse bandits kidnapped the little girl, but it was Yin Panqing who died in the end.

Si Chen suddenly said, "Could it be that Yin Panqing replaced the child?"

"But according to this, if the horse bandit kills someone, the matter is over. How could they die? Who killed the horse bandit?" Yu Huan asked.

"The demon sword killed everyone." The old woman said suddenly.

She never took the initiative to speak. When this sentence came out, everyone was taken aback by her.

"Why?" Si Ye asked.

The old woman said, "They broke their promise."

"Who?" Yu Yue asked.

"Villagers," said the old woman.

An Yao strung together the old woman's words, and suddenly realized that the truth might be very cruel.

From the moment when the horse bandits captured the little girl, to Yin Panqing's death.During this time, many things must have happened.

Among all the information, what was certain was that—whether Yin Panqing voluntarily or not, she finally took the little girl hostage.

But the villagers broke their promises, so she replaced the hostages, but died in the end.

It is self-evident what they promised Yin Panqing that they would be called "broken promises".

——The hostages will be silenced only if the ransom cannot be collected.

The ultimate question is, who is that Demon Sword?

Would it be over by killing her?

An Yao thought for a while, there were too many obsessions in this demon knife, no matter what, she couldn't escape in the end.

She stood up, thanked the old woman, and said, "Look for the demon knife."

When they went out, the old woman suddenly chased after her and said, "Yao Dao is a child."

An Yao turned to look at her, she smiled, and clasped her palms together as if praying for them.

On the way down the mountain, Yu Yue murmured, "Could she be alive?"

No one answered her, the old lady was just a puppet, everyone knew it well.And what the old woman said at the end, Yaodao is a child, it means that the banshee is also a puppet, and they never found the real eye.

And it is actually very simple to find the demon knife.

In this enchantment, only one knife appeared.

It's the one in the banshee's hand.

An Yao said to Si Chen: "We saw that banshee, don't make a move yet, ask her a few words."

Si Chen nodded, and said, "If she takes the initiative to attack, I have no choice but to go for it."

Yu Yue rolled up her sleeves. She checked twice, but she didn't see the banshee. She couldn't help itching her hands and feet: "I'll meet her later."

An Yao looked at Yu Yue who was in high spirits, and secretly sighed.

Yin Yong has been silent ever since she learned that her mother was no longer alive.In fact, An Yao vaguely had a bad guess, tossed and turned in her stomach, but dared not say it out.

If what the old woman said is true, Yaodao is a child.

——That banshee, nine out of ten, is a puppet that looks like a cloudy hope.
