Chapter 38 The weather is just right
When Huo Manshu opened the door and went out, she saw everyone gathered in front of a room. Judging from the location, it seemed to be the single knight's room.
She stepped forward and took a look. It turned out that the single knight was dead.
Just like what the village chief described before, the body was torn apart by wild beasts, and only scattered parts could show his identity in life.
Wang Shuo and his friend were already checking the scene, but found nothing.
They didn't even notice that such a big living person died so miserably beside them. Wang Shuo didn't look good.
I thought the situation in their room was bad enough.
Inadvertently catching sight of Homanshu standing on tiptoes looking in, Wang Shuo suddenly thought of something.
He stepped forward vigorously and grabbed Hao Manshu's hand with a serious expression: "Many people have died since the beginning of the game. No matter how unsociable you are, you must share information with us now. What happened to you and Brother Qu last night?" ?β
After Wang Shuo mentioned this, people around him realized that indeed, there seemed to be no sound in the rooms of Huo Manshu and Qu Lian yesterday.
It makes no sense that they all suffered, only Huo Manshu and the others were special. For a moment, everyone looked at Huo Manshu with wary eyes.
"Well, I think you still need to have the most basic etiquette and morals. Why don't you tell me what happened in your room before I answer this question?"
Homanshu nodded her head as if in embarrassment: "I don't like to deal with rude people."
Seeing that Wang Shuo had something to say, Huo Manshu put a finger to her lips to silence him: "And you said so many people have died."
Huo Manshu tilted her head and tapped the people around her with her fingers: "Is this too much? Didn't a lot of people die every day in the beginning?"
Huo Manshu groaned, stared at Wang Shuo and whispered, "Also, why do you think I care about your lives? Does it have anything to do with me?"
In Wang Shuo's stunned eyes, Huo Manshu withdrew her hand and said, "I changed my mind and I don't plan to tell you anything.
If you are really curious, ask Qu Lian, if he is willing to tell you. β
Wang Shuo was furious because Qu Lian couldn't tell him, so he wanted to get some information from Huo Manshu, but he didn't expect that Huo Manshu was so difficult to deal with.
"Huo Manshu, if you dare to leave, don't blame me for being rude to you!"
Seeing the funny looks in the eyes of the people around him, Wang Shuo couldn't keep it off his face.
"As you please."
Huo Manshu kept walking and didn't care about Wang Shuo's threat.
She has seen Qu Lian. Qu Lian will not let her die. If she dies, she will slap Qu Lian in the face.
"What are you yelling about? I can't sleep anymore."
Qu Lian just stood at the door, stretched out and complained, while Wang Shuo just stood there like a little chicken, not daring to say anything.
At breakfast time, Wang Sheng stopped hiding and came out of the main room.
Hearing that a person had died, his face was full of panic: "My lords, what should I do? This is a sharp sword hanging over my head. I don't know when it will fall. I can't live my life."
Wang Sheng had a frown on his face, while Wang Sheng's wife and Niu Niu's expressions were both calm. After putting the food on the table, Wang Sheng's wife was ready to take Niu Niu away.
Huo Manshu suddenly said: "Sister, take Niuniu to eat with you."
As soon as Huo Manshu said these words, everyone looked at her in horror, not daring to think that these considerate words came from Huo Manshu's mouth.
Wang Sheng's wife was also a little embarrassed, and tightened her apron at a loss, "What's wrong with this? You are all distinguished guests."
Qu Lian had always been on Huo Manshu's side, and he responded at this time: "You are not a distinguished guest, we are all the same. Sit down and eat quickly, don't let it get cold." Wang Sheng's wife looked at Huo Manshu cautiously. Looking at her, Hao Manshu nodded to her and motioned for her to sit down.
"This distinguished guest."
"My name is Huo Manshu, you can call me Manshu."
Huo Manshu interrupted Wang Sheng's wife, who felt uncomfortable listening to her.
While eating, Michelle almost vomited blood. The last time she called her Manshu, she got angry at her, but now she asked the woman to call her Manshu in such a friendly manner. She was really good at pretending.
"Ah, Manmanshu." Wang Sheng's wife didn't expect this distinguished guest to have such a good temper, and she became nervous.
Huo Manshu listened intently, wondering what Wang Sheng's wife was going to say to her.
"Actually, Manshu, you don't have to worry too much. The demons in the village don't harm women."
Afraid that Huo Manshu wouldn't believe it, Wang Sheng's wife explained to her: "This situation started to appear in our village last year. The devil only targeted men, and those who had trouble were also those men. At first, those men only showed some atavisms. The phenomenon will automatically recover after two days, and it will not endanger your life. No one takes it seriously. However, people have died since last month this year, but it is still only for men, so Man Shu, itβs okay.β
< br>
Wang's wife was worried that Huo Manshu was afraid.
Huo Manshu nodded, not disbelieving, but not completely convinced either.
"Sister, what do the dead people have in common?"
Huo Manshu felt that if it was really the devil who did it, there should be rules to follow.
But Wang Sheng's wife shook her head and said, "We have nothing in common. Some are single, some are married, some are carpenters, and some sell pork."
On the surface, there is nothing in common.
But Niu Niu interrupted and said angrily: "They all deserve to die!"
"Niuniu, what are you talking about!"
Wang Sheng's wife was startled by Niu Niu's words. She raised her hand and hit her on the back. Then she looked at Huo Manshu apologetically: "Children are talking nonsense."
With that said, he took Niuniu off the bench and let her go and play.
Niuniu didn't refute and went to play with her toys in silence.
Because of Niu Niu's childish words, the atmosphere at the dinner table became more solemn. Everyone was thinking about the meaning of Niu Niu's words, but no one said anything.
After eating, everyone began to approach Niu Niu and wanted to know more from her, but Niu Niu ignored them and was very cool.
Huo Manshu moved a small bench and sat in the center of the small courtyard to bask in the sun. It was quite pleasant to watch those people use various methods and then be rejected.
"You're not going?"
Qu Lian sat next to Huo Manshu and raised his chin towards the noisy Niu Niu.
"No, I haven't been liked by children since I was a child."
Huo Manshu raised her head and stretched out her hand to cover the sun, "It's only the next day, so don't be so anxious."
After standing up and stretching, Huo Manshu picked up the small bench and walked towards the farm tools. She grabbed a small hoe and put it on her shoulder. She walked out as if taking a walk after a meal. "The weather is just right."
