Train to Another World

Pat felt his head splitting, no, it was like a real crack, many scattered fragments poured out from the crack.

······

"Miya, for you."

"Flowers? Where did they come from?"

"A group of merchants passed through Lookout Cliff City, and I just happened to have some food in my hand."

"Thank you, it's so beautiful. Also, don't exchange food for flowers in the future, you've lost weight."

······

"Miya, I heard a piece of news that the flowers of those merchants were found in underground caves. The sunlight on the surface is too strong, and the flowers can't survive at all. Only the exits of those underground caves to the surface can bloom."

"Pat, I'll take you to a place, maybe you can find flowers there."

"Where to?"

"Just follow me."

······

"Pat, you will marry in the future Me?"

"Yes, I rejected all the marriages my father arranged for me. I said I would only marry you."

"My family is not bad, why doesn't your father want to marry into my family?"

"...He said that he and your father have a very good relationship, and it would be a waste to use me for marriage. Water should be used on cracks."

"Hahahaha, if it doesn't work, I'll let my father go to your house to discuss the marriage."

"Forget it, it's too embarrassing."

"What do you think we will name our children if we get married in the future?"

"If it's a boy, it will be named Montali, which means a towering mountain. If it's a girl, it will be named Leilani, which means a blooming flower."

······

"Miya, I have asked people to go into the underground riverbed to look for flowers. It should be We'll find it soon."

"What?! If you don't know the way, it's very dangerous inside, and I only dare to take the one or two familiar passages. Also, you promised me not to tell others about the secret passage."

"As long as you can find the flowers you like, a little sacrifice is no big deal. When they find the flowers, I will find a way to make them keep the secret."

"How many times have I told you that the lives of civilians are also lives. You will become the lord of the city in the future, and you have to love your people."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

······

"Mia, my father is seriously ill, and I won't come to see you recently."

"Uncle Walton still doesn't agree?"

"No, I will find a way to convince him. And..."

"And what"

"Father is very ill this time, I'm afraid... Alas! At least after I become the city lord, I can decide my own marriage."

"Although I want to marry you, I also hope that Uncle Wharton can get better. Our marriage should have his blessing."

"Let's not talk about this. By the way, my people found something underground. I'll go back and see what it is. Maybe it's very valuable and can be exchanged for a lot of flowers. I'll come to you to propose after I get two bouquets of flowers."

"You'd better ask someone to find it. If you still do this, I won't marry you."

"Then I'll go find it myself in the future."

"You're not allowed to go either."

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."

······

Seeing that Pat had fainted and seemed unable to answer, William took out a rope and tied Pat up casually. While tying them up, he asked Xiang Miya: "Have you seen his daughter?"

Miya shook her head: "We once talked about it. If we get married and have children in the future, the girl will be named Leilani, which means blooming flowers."

William nodded without comment, and then looked at Hai Yihai: "Tell me, what is the deal between you two?"

Hai Yihai said: "We fight for him, and he is responsible for covering up our existence and providing us with food."

William nodded. This statement sounded more reliable. After all, these ghosts are not weak. They can be fed with human flesh. In this terrible world, for a city lord, it might be easier to raise them than to raise the city guards.

Hai Yihai continued, "There is one more thing."

William glanced at him and said, "What is it?"

"Since we came here, we have basically not hunted. He always provided us with food. Every time he brought food, the blood was drained."

Li Zhuoguang looked at Old Pierre, "Where are the guards Pat brought?"

"Except for one person who returned to Lookout Cliff City in advance, the others were subdued by the city guards and locked up in the dungeon."

"Bring them here."

After Old Pierre gave the order, several people who were obviously beaten were soon brought into the reception room. As soon as they came in, they saw their city lord fainted on the ground.

Just as they were about to rush up, they were stopped by the city guards of Haichao City with long knives.

Li Zhuoguang looked at them: "As you can see, your city lord wanted to assassinate Old Pierre, but I stopped him. Now I want to ask you some questions. Some of the answers to these questions are known to me, and some are unknown to me. You'd better answer truthfully.

If the questions you answer are different from what I know, stab your city lord every time you make a mistake."

"No!" Mia wanted to speak out to stop him, but Old Pierre grabbed her and stopped her from saying anything with an angry look. He was ready to let the maid waiting in the corridor take her back to her room to rest.

"Wait, she can't leave yet, I may ask her questions next." Li Zhuoguang called out to stop Old Pierre.

A trace of worry flashed across Old Pierre's face, but he still left his eldest daughter in the room.

Li Zhuoguang looked at those people and asked, "Are you Pat's personal attendant?"

"Young Master...oh no, Master, he does not have his own attendants. Usually, people from the city defense army take turns to serve."

"Which of you has been following him longer?"

Hearing this, a strong man hesitated and raised his hand: "My father is Mr. Wharton's attendant. I grew up with Mr. Wharton, and he often asked me to be his attendant."

Li Zhuoguang looked back at Miya. Miya understood clearly and said, "His name is Colin, and everything he said is true."

Li Zhuoguang asked Colin again: "Do you know that Pat is married? Does he have a daughter?"

Colin glanced at Miya carefully and replied: "Master, he has always wanted to marry Miss Miya before. He has never had anything to do with other women, let alone give birth to a daughter."

"Is there anything unusual about Pat recently?"

Colin recalled: "To be abnormal, the master has become a little cruel recently. Although he was not as kind as Mr. Wharton before, he will also be kind to the civilians at the request of Miss Mia.

But recently, he began to anger the servants in the mansion over trivial matters. If someone made a mistake, he was killed directly by the master. I heard that even the corpse was taken outside the city as bait for hunting snakes and lizards. "

"When did it start?"

"It seems that the master often sends people out to look for things. A year ago, he said that he found something rare. But when the master came back, he said that his servants had deceived him and found nothing, so he killed everyone.

Since then, the master began to change. After the death of Mr. Wharton, it became even more serious. "

"It started a year ago. How many days does your master kill one person on average?"

"About one person a week."

Qin Daniu frowned and said, "You have been killing like this for a year, and you haven't resisted?"

Colin shook his head: "Although this kind of thing is scary, it is not unacceptable. The city lords of some cities also like to regularly use the civilians in the city as prey to play hunting games, but there are still a lot of people who find ways to enter there. Life in a city.

After all, the problems faced outside the city are much more serious than this. "

Li Zhuoguang, who knew the general environment was like this, couldn't say much. He just looked at Hai Yihai and said, "When did you come here?"

Hai Yihai answered honestly: "More than three months ago."

"Your eating status."

Hai Yihai: "The people who came with me are restrained people. Our food intake is very small. We only need one meal every two weeks."

"Restraint faction?"

William explained on the side: "Monsters like them are divided into two factions. One is the hedonistic faction, who eat whatever they want. The other is the restraint faction, who only eat according to the minimum needs.

But don’t think that they are merciful. They just think that leaving living humans to work for them can create more value. They can even use the value created by humans to buy people to eat on the black market, which is even more cost-effective in conversion.

The so-called restraint, to them, is nothing more than a way of accumulating wealth. "

Li Zhuoguang originally thought that cannibals were just monsters that could eat people, but he didn’t expect them to have fun: “It seems that before these cannibals arrived, Pat had already started killing people and taking blood. , even if it is not feeding humans and ghosts, it is still feeding other things.

It seems necessary to visit Wangya City. "
