Chapter 297 296. Cursing the Forest
The silent glares of the villagers were very oppressive to Mutt.
Because he knew that his wealth and life depended on the villagers in the village.
In this village, he is a village elder. Once he leaves the village, or the villagers don't recognize him, then he is just a useless old man.
Credit and prestige are precious and fragile things that he cannot afford to lose.
But at the same time. Is this really what I want to say?
The eyes of the village elder were wavering, mixed with panic and hesitation.
The intimidation brought about by Lan En's speaking skills made his nerves so tense that they were about to break.
Before Lan En re-entered the village, he put the cloak he had taken off during the battle back on himself.
Now, he felt it was time.
[Yaxsi Dharma Seal].
A cold white magical light bloomed on Lan En's left hand, but because the left hand was covered by a cloak, no one noticed this light in the excitement of the crowd.
According to Mentos' quantitative mental analysis, Mutt's mental state was about to be driven to collapse, which just met the standard for [Yaxi Sigil] to be able to carry out extensive mental control.
What Lan En wanted was not to distract the elder for a moment or divert his attention.
He wanted Mutt to tell the truth.
So after this moment, the face of the village elder who was originally shrinking under the gaze of the crowd suddenly turned dull.
The villagers were a little strange at first, but then, this strange emotion was covered up by the description in Mutt's mouth.
"That's not my fault! It was that woman, that woman deserved it!"
Mut said in a confused tone.
The surrounding villagers were unable to react for a moment. They looked around at the people around them in surprise, and then tentatively spoke to the elder: "Old Mutt, what are you talking about?"
"I said, that woman deserves it! Who let her come to our village with her hair disheveled? If a woman doesn't cover her hair, she is either a bitch or a prostitute! It's obvious that she just wants to seduce men!"
"I was taken in. She, I killed her too, but it’s not my fault! Who made her have such big breasts?”
At this time, Mutt seems to be The desire to tell secrets was activated by the [Yaxi Seal]. At first, his expression was just numb, but later it turned into a kind of enthusiasm that chilled the onlookers.
He believed fervently that he was indeed right.
“That woman is not a serious person! When she came to our village, she walked directly towards the forest of green-skinned bitches, praying as she walked! To the gods and trees of those green-skinned bitches Oh, pray! Pray that these demons will punish our Baron Hamm!”
"I'm saving the Baron!"
The onlookers were dumbfounded. The people who had originally been threatening Mutt began to retreat subconsciously.
This made the village elder's fanatical and angry expression even more revealing.
Lan En crossed his arms and listened to the 'inner words' drawn out by the seal. He nodded with a complicated expression and spoke.
"What do you think the woman did to curse the Baron in the Broccolion Forest?"
"She, she said to the forest that the baron farted under the quilt and didn't even take a shower after doing it."
"This can only be regarded as a complaint at best. Doesn't your mother-in-law complain about you?"
"Yes, but she also said that the baron proposed to her, but he could not marry her at all and could only make her a wealthy lover. She agreed, but the woman still muttered towards the forest with her hands clasped together, 'If this is the case, then the man is not as reliable as the cormorant on the lake.' Then."
"Then what happened?"
The witcher realized the key to the whole curse and the demon. As the situation surfaced, he began to ask questions.
Mutt's fear that could not be concealed even in a hypnotic state confirmed the demon hunter's judgment.
"And then, the damn forest responded to her!"
In the middle of the night, a biting and cold wind blew slowly through the village.
All the villagers couldn't help but shiver. "There was a very, very old voice, so old that I couldn't hear the sinister laughter between men and women. It said that the woman's wish had been fulfilled."
"The woman was so frightened herself that she turned around and ran away! Toward our village! She wanted to lure that dirty thing over to us, so of course I went up to stop her!"
At this point, Lie The demon can already roughly imagine what happened next.
The young man's tone was calm and cold, as if he was telling a family dispute that could be seen on the roadside.
“You went to stop her, and then there was a physical entanglement. The big and soft body made you lustful, and then you took off your pants and killed her. How did you dispose of her body?”
"I didn't handle it." Mutt's tone sounded like he was talking in his sleep.
"It's the forest. The forest seems to be alive. It stretched out at least fifty meters of vines! It pulled the woman's body in!"
In the forest, Lan En looked into the distance, the dense Look into the somewhat eerie forest.
To completely drive away the day demon, you need bones and emotional sustenance.
"Did the woman leave anything behind?"
Lan En walked through the crowd and went to the village elder and asked.
The dazed Mutt took out a handkerchief from his arms. Lan En recognized the same handkerchief as the one in Sister Fresnet's hand at first glance.
Men always buy several sets of gifts.
"Understood." Lan En took away the handkerchief, turned and walked towards the outside of the village.
Mut also woke up from a dream at the same time. He was affected by the [Yaxi Seal] and could not remember what happened in the middle.
With just a blink of an eye, the surrounding villagers surrounded him and looked at him with horrified eyes.
The village elder was at a loss and flustered. He could only look at the unfamiliar expressions of the familiar villagers in panic. He staggered back into the house and locked the door with a bang.
He felt that he no longer recognized this small village where he had lived for decades.
On the other side, Lan En did not return to the field where the day demon was. He directly crossed the border of the village and headed towards the large forest not far away.
In the dense and gloomy forest, the faint sound of leaves being rubbed began to be heard.
The arrow from the tail feather of a pheasant drew an arc in the air and plunged into the tree trunk six meters away from Lan En.
This is the dryad's warning.
A few decades ago, when their relationship with humans was not so tense, they would shoot three arrows as a warning, and take human life the fourth time.
But in today's world, if the person being warned makes any small move, they will target the human body with the second arrow.
The witcher stopped and stretched out his hands from under his cloak to show that he was not hostile.
“Everyone, can you communicate in Common Tongue? My Ancient Tongue is not very good.”
"Whoosh, bang", the second arrow was inserted into the tree trunk three meters next to Lan En.
A series of awkward female voices came from the woods. That's an ancient saying. It's not that Lan En is not very good at it, he simply hasn't learned it yet.
But the witcher seemed not to feel anything, spreading his hands and continuing to talk to himself.
"I know you can understand. After all, in the past ten years, you have accepted more little girls from humans than you have given birth to, right?"
"In order to deal with the situation in that field, I The demon spirit comes during the day, it is close to the human village, and it is also close to you.”
Lan En said, and his hands that were originally spread out suddenly reached into the air beside him. When the blur of limbs caused by the rapidity disappeared, he had already grasped an arrow with a pheasant tail feather in his hand.
"The demon spirit will never be a part of nature and the forest. You also need to get rid of it. Let us help each other."
The woods suddenly became quiet. I don’t know what they were thinking about. Lan En's words were still considering his method of intercepting the arrow with his bare hands.
